Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Convertible Note Financing

 

On June 21, 2018 (the “Subscription Date”), pursuant to a securities purchase agreement (“SPA”) entered into by Helios and Matheson Analytics Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us”) and the institutional investors party to the SPA (the “Buyers”), the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Buyers 20,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Preferred Stock”) and Series B-2 senior secured convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $164,000,000 (which includes an approximate 15.0% original issue discount) (the “Convertible Notes”), for total consideration consisting of an aggregate cash payment to the Company of $20,500,000 and secured promissory notes payable by the Buyers to the Company (the “Investor Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $139,400,000 (collectively, the “Financing”). The date on which the Preferred Stock and the Convertible Notes will be issued is referred to in this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”) as the “Closing Date.”

 

Unless earlier converted or redeemed, the Convertible Notes will mature on the second anniversary of the Closing Date. The Company is required to redeem the Convertible Notes at the option of the Buyers (i) from and after 7 months from the date of any prepayment by the Buyers in connection with the Investor Notes; (ii) if the Company completes a subsequent public or private offering of debt or equity securities, including equity-linked securities (subject to certain excluded issuances); (iii) upon a cash prepayment of any promissory note issued to the Company as payment of all, or any part, of the purchase price of any note or convertible note issued by the Company; (iv) upon the exercise of an option or right to subscribe for common stock or convertible securities of the Company; (v) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, including a Bankruptcy Event of Default (each, as defined in the Convertible Notes); or (vi) in the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the Convertible Notes). Except for a redemption following an Event of Default, which may be paid with cash or shares of the Company’s common stock at the election of the Buyers, the Company will be required to redeem the Convertible Notes with cash. The Convertible Notes and the shares of common stock into which the Convertible Notes may be converted (collectively, the “Conversion Shares”) are sometimes referred to in this Current Report as the “Securities.” All amounts outstanding under the Convertible Notes will be secured by the Investor Notes and all proceeds therefrom. The Convertible Notes will not be secured by, and the Investors will not have a lien on, any assets of the Company other than the Investor Notes.

 

As a condition to closing the Financing, MoviePass Inc. (“MoviePass”) will be obligated to guaranty the obligations arising under the Convertible Notes pursuant to the form of Guaranty attached as an exhibit to the SPA (the “MoviePass Guaranty”).

 

The Company is permitted to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Convertible Notes for general corporate purposes, transaction expenses and, subject to the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”), for acquisitions.

 

In accordance with terms of the SPA, the Company is obligated to convene a special meeting of its stockholders (i) not later than October 18, 2018, to approve, to the extent required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635, the issuance of all shares of common stock of the Company that may be issued pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Notes, and (ii) not later than July 18, 2018, to approve a reverse stock split of the common stock of the Company.

 

The Preferred Stock

 

Dividends

 

The Preferred Stock will not accrue dividends.

 

Conversion

 

The Preferred Stock will not be convertible into common stock.

Voting Rights

 

Each holder of Preferred Stock will be entitled to the whole number of votes equal to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the purchase price of the Preferred Stock then held by such holder (calculated as the portion of the aggregate purchase price for all of the Preferred Stock attributable to the shares of Preferred Stock then held by such holder); divided by $0.312 (which is equal to the last Nasdaq closing bid price of the common stock preceding the execution of the SPA). However, the amount of votes with respect to the Preferred Stock held by any Buyer, when aggregated with any other voting securities of the Company held by such Buyer, will not exceed 19.9% of the outstanding voting power of the Company calculated as of the Subscription Date (or such greater percentage allowed by Nasdaq without any stockholder approval requirements).

 

Redemption

 

From and after the time when the first 15% of the aggregate principal amount of any Convertible Note is paid or converted in accordance with the terms of the Convertible Notes, the Company will have the right to redeem all or a portion of the Preferred Stock held by the holder of that Convertible Note at a price per share equal to the par value of the Preferred Stock ($0.01 per share). The holder(s) of the Preferred Stock may require the Company to redeem some or all the shares of Preferred stock at any time at a price per share equal to the par value of the Preferred Stock ($0.01 per share).

 

Transfer

 

Each holder of the Preferred Stock will not be permitted to transfer such holder’s Preferred Stock prior to the time when at least 15% of the aggregate principal amount of such holder’s Convertible Note has been converted or paid.

 

Liquidation Preference

 

Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holder(s) of the shares of Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive in cash out of the assets of the Company, before any amount is paid to the holders of any junior stock, an amount per share of Preferred Stock equal to 100% of the stated value per share (which is equal to $0.01) plus $0.01.

 

The Convertible Notes

  

At the Closing, the Convertible Notes will be issued to the Buyers in consideration of the Investor Notes. The aggregate initial principal amount of the Convertible Notes is $164,000,000 (which includes an approximate 15.0% original issue discount). Upon issuance, (i) $24,600,000 in principal amount of the Convertible Notes will consist of “Unrestricted Principal”, meaning principal that may be converted at any time and is not subject to netting against any Investor Notes as further described below, and (ii) the balance of the principal amount under the Convertible Notes upon issuance, equal to $139,400,000, will consist entirely of “Restricted Principal”, which is defined as that portion of the principal amount of a Convertible Note that equals the outstanding principal amount of a corresponding Investor Note. The principal amount of each Investor Note is subject to reduction through prepayments by the applicable Buyer of the Investor Note given by the Buyer to the Company or, upon maturity or redemption of the Convertible Notes, by netting the amount owed by the Buyer under such Investor Note against a corresponding amount of Restricted Principal to be canceled under the Buyer’s Convertible Note. Each prepayment under the Investor Notes will convert a corresponding amount of Restricted Principal under the Convertible Notes into “Unrestricted Principal” that may be converted into common stock.

 

The Convertible Notes will bear interest at a rate of (i) 5.25% per annum with respect to any Restricted Principal, and (ii) 10% per annum with respect to any Unrestricted Principal

Payment of Interest

 

Interest on the Convertible Notes will be capitalized on each quarterly interest payment date starting July 1, 2018 by adding the interest to the then outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes. Interest may also be paid by inclusion in the “Outstanding Amount”, which is defined in the Convertible Notes as the principal amount to be converted or redeemed, accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such principal amount, accrued and unpaid late charges, if any, and the “Make-Whole Amount.” The “Make-Whole Amount” is defined as the amount of any interest that, but for a conversion or redemption, would have accrued with respect to the Outstanding Amount of principal being redeemed or converted under the Convertible Notes, for the period from the applicable date of conversion or redemption date through the maturity date of the Convertible Notes. No Make-Whole Amount will be payable under the Convertible Notes with respect to any portion of Restricted Principal after the cancellation of such Restricted Principal pursuant to netting under the Convertible Notes, the Investor Notes or the Master Netting Agreement (as defined below), as applicable. In the event of an event of default interest under the Convertible Notes may be increased to 15% during the first 30 days following the occurrence and continuance of an event of default and to 18% thereafter (the “Default Rate”).

 

Conversion of the Convertible Notes

 

The Buyers may elect, at any time after the Company obtains approval by its stockholders to either increase its authorized shares of common stock or effect a reverse stock split, to convert the Convertible Notes into shares of the Company’s common stock at the Conversion Price, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations described below. The “Conversion Price” is $1.00 per share (subject to anti-dilution adjustment as described in the Convertible Notes).

 

Beneficial Ownership Limitations on Conversion and Issuance

 

The Convertible Notes may not be converted and shares of the Company’s common stock may not be issued under the Convertible Notes if, after giving effect to the conversion or issuance, the Buyer together with its affiliates would beneficially own more than 4.99% or 9.99%, as elected by the Buyer, of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock. At the Buyer’s option, the ownership limitation blocker may be raised or lowered to any other percentage not in excess of 4.99% or 9.99%, as elected by the Buyer, except that any raise will only be effective upon 61-days’ prior notice to the Company.

 

Redemption of the Convertible Notes

 

Provided there has been no Equity Conditions Failure (as defined in the Convertible Notes) and no senior convertible bridge notes issued by the Company on November 7, 2017 (the “November Notes”), convertible notes issued by the Company on January 11, 2018 (the “January Notes”), or shares of the Preferred Stock remain outstanding or any Unrestricted Principal remains outstanding under the Convertible Notes, the Company will have the right to redeem all, but not less than all, of the Outstanding Amount remaining unpaid under the Convertible Notes. The portion of the Convertible Notes subject to redemption can be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to 115% of the amount being redeemed. Under the Convertible Notes, the Company may reduce, on a dollar for dollar basis, the Restricted Principal by the surrender for cancellation of such portion of the corresponding Investor Notes equal to the amount of Restricted Principal included in the redemption.

 

The Buyers have the right to require the Company to redeem the Convertible Notes (i) at the option of the Buyers from and after 7 months from the date of any prepayment by the Buyers in connection with the Investor Notes; (ii) if the Company completes a subsequent public or private offering of debt or equity securities, including equity-linked securities (subject to certain excluded issuances); (iii) upon a cash prepayment of any promissory note issued to the Company as payment of all, or any part, of the purchase price of any note or convertible note issued by the Company; (iv) upon the exercise of an option or right to subscribe for common stock or convertible securities of the Company; (v) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, including a Bankruptcy Event of Default (as defined in the Convertible Notes); or (vi) in the event of a Change of Control. Except for a redemption required by an Event of Default, which may be paid with cash or shares of the Company’s common stock at the election of the Buyers, the Company will be required to redeem the Convertible Notes with cash.

Events of Default

 

The Convertible Notes contain customary events of default including but not limited to: (i) a suspension from trading or a failure to maintain the listing of the Company’s common stock for a period of 5 trading days; (ii) after a conversion by the Buyer, the failure by the Company to deliver the common stock for a period of 5 trading days; (iii) the failure to reserve a number of shares of the Company’s common stock to permit a Buyer to fully convert the principal, interest, late charges, if any, and Make-Whole Amounts under the Convertible Notes, to the extent required by the Convertible Notes; (iv) the failure by the Company or any subsidiary to make payments when due under the Convertible Notes; (v) upon a conversion by the Buyer, the failure by the Company to remove a restrictive legend from shares of the Company’s common stock if permitted by the applicable securities laws; (vi) breaches of covenants; (vii) bankruptcy or insolvency; (viii) the failure to pay indebtedness when due; and (ix) the failure of the grant of the security interest in the Investor Notes to create a first priority lien against the Investor Notes.

 

As indicated above, following an event of default, the Buyers may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Convertible Notes. The redemption amount may be paid in cash or with shares of the Company’s common stock, at the election of the Buyers, at a price equal to the Event of Default Redemption Price (as defined in the Convertible Notes).

 

The Company must immediately redeem the Convertible Notes in cash upon the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event of Default (as defined in the Convertible Notes).

 

The Event of Default Redemption Price will be computed as a price equal to the greater of (i) 125% of the Outstanding Amount to be redeemed and (ii) the product of (X) the Outstanding Amount to be redeemed divided by the Conversion Price multiplied by (Y) the product of (1) 125% multiplied by (2) the greatest closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on any trading day during the period commencing on the date preceding such event of default and ending on the date the Company makes the entire payment required to be made under the Convertible Notes.

 

In addition, following an event of default, the Buyers will have the right to convert the Convertible Notes at the “Alternate Conversion Event of Default Price” which means, with respect to each such conversion, that price which shall be the lowest of (i) the applicable Conversion Price as in effect on the date of the conversion, and (ii) the greater of (A) the Default Floor Price (which means (i) at any time prior to the Stockholder Approval Date (as defined in the SPA), the Floor Price (as defined in the Convertible Notes) (initially, $1.00) or (ii) at any time on or after the Stockholder Approval Date, $0.0624 (or such lower price as mutually determined by the Company and the Buyers in writing, subject to the prior consent of Nasdaq)), and (B) 75% of the lowest volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock for each of the 30 consecutive trading days ending and including the trading day of delivery or deemed delivery of the applicable notice of conversion.

 

Fundamental Transactions

 

The Convertible Notes will prohibit the Company from entering into specified transactions involving a change of control unless the successor entity, which must be a publicly traded corporation whose common stock is quoted on or listed for trading on an eligible market, assumes in writing all of the Company’s obligations under the Convertible Notes. 

 

Rights Upon Issuance of Other Securities

 

After the Stockholder Approval Date (as defined in the SPA), whenever the Company issues or sells, or is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of common stock (including options and convertible securities but excluding any Excluded Securities, as defined in the SPA) for a consideration per share less than a price equal to the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale (the “New Issuance Price”) (the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”), then, immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the New Issuance Price. Prior to the Stockholder Approval Date (as defined in the SPA), the New Issuance Price following any Dilutive Issuance will not be less than the Floor Price (as defined in the Convertible Notes).

Note Purchase Agreement

 

The Investor Notes will be issued as payment in full for the Convertible Notes pursuant to the terms and conditions of a note purchase agreement entered into by the Company and each Buyer (collectively, the “Note Purchase Agreements”).

 

Investor Notes

 

The Investor Notes will be payable in full on the forty-second anniversary of the Closing Date, although the Buyers may prepay the Investor Notes in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, at any time. The Investor Notes accrue interest at an annual rate of 2.83%. The Buyers’ obligation to pay the Company the principal amount of the Investor Notes is to be secured with cash, cash equivalents, any Group of Ten (“G10”) currency and any notes or other securities issued by any G10 country, or certain other securities, in each case having a value equal to the principal amount of the Investor Notes. The Investor Notes are also subject to mandatory prepayment, in whole or in part, at any time (i) if the Company receives a conversion notice from a Buyer in which all or any part of the principal of the Convertible Notes to be converted includes any Restricted Principal and (ii) the Buyer receives a confirmation from the Company’s transfer agent that it has been irrevocably instructed by the Company to deliver to the Buyer the shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued pursuant to the conversion notice. Subject to the satisfaction of certain Equity Conditions, whenever the closing bid price of our common stock exceeds 110% of the Conversion Price of the Convertible Notes for a period of two trading days, we have the right to force the prepayment of the Investor Notes in an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of (x) $5 million and (y) 20% of the sum of the daily dollar trading volume of the our common stock during such prior two trading day period (subject to reduction for any voluntary prepayments from the applicable investor in such period); provided, that all such forced prepayments, in the aggregate, may not exceed 1/3 of the initial principal outstanding under the Investor Notes on the closing date.

  

The Investor Notes also contain certain optional “netting” rights of the Buyers which, if exercised, would reduce the amount outstanding under the Convertible Notes and the Investor Notes by the same amount and, accordingly, the cash proceeds received by the Company from the Buyers pursuant to the Financing. These netting rights include (i) the right of the Buyer, (A) on or after the 30 th calendar day after the Closing Date, or (B) at any time on or after the occurrence of an event of default under Notes, with respect to any portion of principal under the Investor Notes, to net against any obligations of the Company remaining under the Convertible Notes an equal amount of the obligations of the Buyer remaining under the Buyer’s Investor Note; (ii) the right of the Buyers, on the maturity date of the Convertible Notes, to net against any obligations remaining under the Convertible Notes an equal amount of the obligations remaining under the Investor Notes; (iii) the right of the Buyers, with respect to any required redemption of all or any portion of the Convertible Notes, solely to the extent such portion of the Conversion Amount (as defined in the Convertible Notes) subject to such redemption includes Restricted Principal, (iv) the right of the Buyers to net against any obligations remaining under the Convertible Notes an equal amount of the obligations remaining under the Investor Notes if an Event of Default occurs and is not cured; (v) the right of the Buyers to net against the unpaid principal amount of the Convertible Notes an equal amount of the unpaid principal of the Investor Notes upon a Bankruptcy Event of Default; and (vi) an automatic netting of obligations under the Convertible Notes equal to 75% of the Restricted Principal in exchange for the cancellation of the principal amount of the Investor Notes outstanding on the date of a transfer by the Company of the Investor Notes to any person without the consent of the Buyers.

 

Master Netting Agreement

 

The Company and the Buyers will enter into a master netting agreement (the “Master Netting Agreement”) to set forth for each party its right to net obligations that may arise under the Note Purchase Agreement, the Investor Notes, the Convertible Notes and the SPA (collectively, the “Underlying Agreements”) upon the occurrence of certain events, including as described above.

MoviePass Guaranty

 

As noted above, as a condition to closing the Financing, MoviePass will be obligated to provide a Guaranty to the Buyers pursuant to which it will (i) guarantee the punctual payment of all obligations under the Convertible Notes, including all interest, make-whole and other amounts that accrue after the commencement of any insolvency proceeding of the Company, whether or not the payment of such obligations are enforceable or allowable in the insolvency proceeding, and all fees, interest, premiums, penalties, causes of actions, costs, commissions, expense reimbursements, indemnifications and all other amounts due or to become due under any of the Financing documents, and (ii) agree to pay any and all costs and expenses (including counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Buyers in enforcing any rights under the MoviePass Guaranty or any other Financing document.

 

Voting and Lockup Agreements

 

As a condition to closing the Financing, Theodore Farnsworth, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of the Company, and Helios and Matheson Information Technology Ltd. (“HMIT”), of which Muralikrishna Gadiyaram, a director of the Company, is the chief executive officer, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Helios & Matheson Inc. (collectively, the “Principal Stockholders”), who collectively own approximately 1.7% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock as of the Closing Date, will execute voting and lockup agreements with the Company (each a “Voting and Lockup Agreement” and collectively, the “Voting and Lockup Agreements”). Pursuant to the Voting and Lockup Agreements, the Principal Stockholders agree to vote in favor of or consent to the Company’s issuance of the Securities at any meeting of stockholders or written consent of stockholders for such purpose. The Voting and Lockup Agreements also require that, for a period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the initial date when all of the principal outstanding under the Convertible Notes issued to the Buyers consists of Restricted Principal thereunder, the Principal Stockholders will not (i) dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, any securities of the Company (except that shares underlying equity awards granted to Mr. Farnsworth may be sold between April 1 to April 15 of any given year, not to exceed a total of 262,500 shares, in connection with the full or partial payment of applicable taxes or tax withholding obligations arising from the issuance of an award of common stock or options to purchase common stock granted to Mr. Farnsworth pursuant to an Approved Stock Plan, as defined in the SPA), or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any securities of the Company owned directly by the Principal Stockholders (including holding as a custodian) or (iii) permit to exist any security interest, lien, claim, pledge, option, right of first refusal, agreement, or limitation on the Principal Stockholders’ voting rights, charge or other encumbrance of any nature with respect to the Principal Stockholders’ securities in the Company or (iv) engage in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of the Principal Stockholders’ securities in the Company or (v) directly or indirectly initiate, solicit or encourage any person to take actions which could reasonably be expected to lead to the occurrence of any of the foregoing.

 

Buyer Voting Agreements  

 

As a condition to closing the Financing, we required each Buyer, severally and not jointly, to execute a separate voting agreement with the Company (each a “Buyer Voting Agreement” and collectively, the “Buyer Voting Agreements”). Pursuant to the Buyer Voting Agreements, each Buyer will agree to vote the Preferred Stock and any shares of common stock the Buyer owns or may acquire (together, the “Buyer Securities”) in favor of or consent to the (i) approval of the issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of the January Notes, to the extent required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 (the “Stockholder Approval”) (ii) Stockholder Resolutions (as defined in the January Securities Purchase Agreement), (iii) an increase in the authorized shares of the Company from 500,000,000 to 2,000,000,000 and (iv) a reverse stock split of the common stock of the Company in the range of 1 share-for-2 up to a ratio of 1 share-for-250 shares; and (b) against any proposal or any other corporate action or agreement that would result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of the Company under the Transaction Documents (as defined in the SPA) or the Transaction Documents (as defined in the January Securities Purchase Agreement) or which could result in any of the conditions to the Company's obligations under the Transaction Documents (as defined in the SPA) or the Transaction Documents (as defined in the January Securities Purchase Agreement), as applicable, not being fulfilled. The agreement to vote the Buyer Securities described above terminates upon the receipt of the Stockholder Approval (as defined in the January Securities Purchase Agreement).

 

6

 

 

The Buyer Voting Agreements also require that, at any time prior to the record date for the Stockholder Meeting (as defined in the January Securities Purchase Agreement), each Buyer will not directly or indirectly (i) offer or agree to sell, transfer, tender, assign, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of Buyer Securities, (ii) grant a proxy or power of attorney with respect to Buyer Securities, or (iii) create or permit to exist any security interest, lien, claim, pledge, option, right of first refusal, agreement, limitation on the Buyer’s voting rights, charge or other encumbrance of any nature whatsoever with respect to Buyer Securities, or (iv) initiate, solicit or encourage any person to take actions which could reasonably be expected to lead to the occurrence of any of the foregoing.

Financial Update

 

MoviePass continues to be a hypergrowth company, as demonstrated by its acquisition of over 3 million paying subscribers since August 15, 2017. To become a profitable company and achieve the economy of scale in the movie industry that we are expecting, we will require a significant amount of additional capital for MoviePass (our movie theater subscription service subsidiary), MoviePass Ventures (our movie investment subsidiary), MoviePass Films (our original content production subsidiary), Moviefone™ (our media content advertising platform) and any future acquisitions we may seek in order to continue our vertical integration, potentially exceeding $1.2 billion in total additional required capital. We expect to continue raising debt or equity capital to achieve our objectives, as and when available. If we maintain our access to capital, we expect the rapid growth of MoviePass to continue for the foreseeable future. We expect MoviePass’ continued growth will continue to create new revenue opportunities from marketing the movies of others, from partnerships with exhibitors and from our own movie content businesses including participation in box office and home entertainment revenues from our own movies, which we believe we can maximize by marketing our films through the MoviePass subscription service. To maintain our growth and continue to fundamentally transform the movie industry, for the benefit of the entire movie ecosystem, we will continue to incur a significant monthly cash deficit, until or unless we achieve positive cash flow or profitability, of which there is no assurance.

 

Due to MoviePass’ greater than anticipated subscriber growth, investments we are making in movies through our subsidiaries MoviePass Ventures and MoviePass Films, and completing acquisitions such as Moviefone™, our monthly cash deficit has continued to grow. As of May 31, 2018, we had approximately $18.5 million in available cash and approximately $30.3 million on deposit with our merchant and fulfillment processors for a total of approximately $48.8 million. The funds held by these processors represent a portion of the payments received for annual and other extended term MoviePass subscription plans and future ticket fulfillment, which we classify as current assets on our balance sheet and which we expect to be disbursed to us or utilized during 2018. Our average monthly cash deficit has been approximately $25.0 million per month from September 30, 2017 to May 31, 2018 inclusive of our processor deposits. From May 1, 2018 through June 15, 2018, we acquired approximately 545,000 new paying subscribers. Due to our greater than anticipated subscriber growth in May 2018, our cash deficit for the month of May 2018 was approximately $40.0 million and we anticipate our cash deficit for the month of June 2018 will be at least $45.0 million due to significant subscriber growth and strong box office results of recently released films. As the MoviePass subscriber base increases rapidly, and as we increase our investments in movies through MoviePass Ventures and MoviePass Films, and make other acquisitions, our monthly cash deficit will continue to increase in the coming months.

 

However, the usage rate of our MoviePass subscribers has been declining significantly since January 1, 2018, and our cost per ticket has been declining as well. We believe the continuing decline in our subscriber usage rates, cost per ticket and cost savings resulting from recent technological measures we implemented to promote the fair use of the MoviePass subscription product, together with MoviePass’ marketing and promotional revenues and additional revenues resulting from our investments in movies through MoviePass Ventures and MoviePass Films, including both box office and home entertainment revenues, will result in the Company becoming cash flow positive during the first half of 2019, assuming we are able to maintain our access to capital, of which there is no assurance.

To maintain our growth and continue to fundamentally transform the movie industry, we will continue to require significant proceeds from sales of our debt or equity securities, including common stock pursuant to our Equity Distribution Agreement with Canaccord Genuity, among other sources of capital. Beginning May 9, 2018 and through June 15, 2018, the Company has issued shares of common stock pursuant to its Equity Distribution Agreement with Canaccord Genuity, and its November 2017 convertible notes following receipt of prepayments under corresponding November 2017 investor notes. Accordingly, during the period from May 9, 2018 through June 15, 2018, the Company has issued approximately 100.8 million shares of its common stock and received gross cash proceeds of approximately $54.8 million from sales of its common stock pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement. In addition, during the same period, the Company received gross proceeds of approximately $23.8 million with respect to funding of the November 2017 investor notes and issued approximately 57.4 million shares with respect to the conversion of its November 2017 convertible notes inclusive of shares related to the make-whole interest provisions of those notes.

 

Furthermore, to the extent we use any net proceeds from sales of our securities for acquisitions of other businesses or financial interests in additional movies (through our subsidiaries, MoviePass Ventures or MoviePass Films), we will need additional capital to offset our monthly cash deficit to the extent resulting from those further investments.

 

Our access to additional equity capital will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain the requisite stockholder approval at a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”), as described in our preliminary proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 19, 2018, to increase our authorized common stock, to effect a reverse stock split and to issue shares of common stock pursuant to the convertible notes we issued to an institutional investor in January 2018 (the “Special Meeting Proposals”), all of which the holders of our Preferred Stock will be required to vote for affirmatively (as described under Item 1.01 of this Current Report). As of June 19, 2018, we had 222,914,649 shares outstanding out of our currently authorized 500 million shares of common stock. If we are unable to obtain the requisite stockholder approval of the Special Meeting Proposals, our access to additional equity capital, including through our Equity Distribution Agreement with Canaccord Genuity, will be significantly diminished, until or unless we are able to obtain such approval. In that case, we would be reliant on seeking non-convertible debt capital, which may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all, or voluntary prepayments from our institutional investors under the investor notes payable to us that we hold totaling $229.9 million in aggregate principal amount, including the Investor Notes issued in the Financing described in Item 1.01 above.

 

As previously reported, if we are unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, we may be required to reduce the scope of our planned growth or otherwise alter our business model, objectives and operations, which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.

CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS, PREFERENCES AND RIGHTS OF THE
SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK OF
HELIOS AND MATHESON ANALYTICS INC.

 

I, ___________, hereby certify that I am the ________ of Helios and Matheson Analytics Inc. (the “ Company ”), a corporation incorporated and existing under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “ DGCL ”) and further do hereby certify:

 

That pursuant to the authority expressly conferred upon the Board of Directors of the Company (the “ Board ”) by the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “ Certificate of Incorporation ”), and Section 151(g) of the DGCL, the Board on June __, 2018 adopted the following resolution determining it desirable and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders for the Company, pursuant to this Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the Series A Preferred Stock of Helios and Matheson Analytics Inc. (this “ Certificate of Designations ”), to create a series of shares of preferred stock designated as “ Series A Preferred Stock ”, none of which shares have been issued:

 

RESOLVED, that pursuant to the authority expressly vested in the Board, in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, a series of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company be and hereby is created, and that the designation and number of shares thereof and the voting and other powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional, special or other rights of the shares of such series and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof are as follows:

 

TERMS OF SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK

 

1. Designation and Number of Shares . There shall hereby be created and established a series of preferred stock of the Company designated as “Series A Preferred Stock” (the “ Preferred Shares ”). The authorized number of Preferred Shares shall be 20,500 shares. Each Preferred Share shall have a par value of $0.01. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning as set forth in Section 23 below.

 

2. Ranking . Except to the extent that the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Preferred Shares (the “ Required Holders ”) expressly consent to the creation of Parity Stock (as defined below) or Senior Preferred Stock (as defined below) in accordance with Section 8, all shares of capital stock of the Company shall be junior in rank to all Preferred Shares with respect to the preferences as to distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company (such junior stock is referred to herein collectively as “ Junior Stock ”). The rights of all such shares of capital stock of the Company shall be subject to the rights, powers, preferences and privileges of the Preferred Shares. Without limiting any other provision of this Certificate of Designations, without the prior express consent of the Required Holders, voting separate as a single class, the Company shall not, directly or indirectly (including, without limitation, through one or more Subsidiaries), hereafter authorize or issue (x) any additional or other shares of capital stock that is (i) of senior rank to the Preferred Shares in respect of the preferences as to distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company (collectively, the “ Senior Preferred Stock ”) or (ii) of pari passu rank to the Preferred Shares in respect of the preferences as to distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company (collectively, the “ Parity Stock ”) or (y) any Junior Stock having a maturity date (or any other date requiring redemption, repurchase or repayment of such shares of Junior Stock) that is prior to the Maturity Date. In the event of the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation, the Preferred Shares shall maintain their relative rights, powers, designations, privileges and preferences provided for herein and no such merger or consolidation shall cause or provide for a result inconsistent therewith. Any act or transaction entered into or taken in contravention of this Section 2 shall be null and void ab initio and of no force or effect.

 

 

 

 

3. Registration . At the time of issuance of any Preferred Shares hereunder, the applicable Holder may, by written request (including by electronic-mail) to the Company, elect to receive such Preferred Shares in the form of one or more certificates, if any, representing the Preferred Shares (the “ Preferred Share Certificates ”). The Company (or the Company’s transfer agent (the “ Transfer Agent ”), as custodian for the Preferred Shares, if applicable) shall maintain a register (the “ Register ”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Holders of each Preferred Share and the Stated Value of the Preferred Shares and whether the Preferred Shares are held by such Holder in the form of Preferred Share Certificates (the “ Registered Preferred Shares ”). Except as otherwise prohibited by applicable law, the entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error.

 

4. Rights Upon Fundamental Transactions . The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Certificate of Designations and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4 pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders and approved by the Required Holders prior to such Fundamental Transaction, including agreements to deliver to each holder of Preferred Shares in exchange for such Preferred Shares a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Certificate of Designations. Upon the occurrence of any Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Certificate of Designations and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Certificate of Designations and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein and therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Required Holders may elect, by delivery of written notice to the Company, to waive this Section 4 to permit the Fundamental Transaction without compliance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 4. The provisions of this Section 4 shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the redemption of the Preferred Shares.

5. Redemptions .

 

(a) Company Optional Redemption . With respect to any given Holder, until such time as at least the Initial Unrestricted Principal (as defined in the applicable Note) of the Note issued to such Holder has been paid or converted in accordance with the terms thereof, the Preferred Shares held by such Holder shall not be redeemable at the option of the Company. From and after such time, the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, have the right to redeem all, or any part, of the Preferred Shares then held by such Holder on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date (each as defined below) (a “ Company Optional Redemption ”). Each Preferred Share subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 5(a) shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price per share (the “ Company Optional Redemption Price ”) equal to the Stated Value thereof. The Company may exercise its right to require redemption under this Section 5(a) by delivering a written notice thereof by facsimile or electronic mail and overnight courier to all, but not less than all, of the Holders eligible to have their Preferred Shares redeemed at the option of the Company pursuant to this Section 5(a) (the “ Company Optional Redemption Notice ” and the date all such Holders received such notice is referred to as the “ Company Optional Redemption Notice Date ”). Each Company Optional Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable. The Company Optional Redemption Notice shall (x) state the date on which the Company Optional Redemption shall occur (the “ Company Optional Redemption Date ”) which date shall not be less than two (2) Trading Days nor more than twenty (20) Trading Days following the Company Optional Redemption Notice Date and (y) state the aggregate number of Preferred Shares subject to redemption from each Holder (which shall be allocated, pro rata, to each Holder whose Preferred Shares are subject to redemption).

 

(b) Holder Optional Redemption . At any time and from time to time, each Holder shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, have the right to require the Company to redeem all, or any part, of the Preferred Shares then held by such Holder on the applicable Holder Optional Redemption Date (as defined below) (a “ Holder Redemption ”). Each Preferred Share subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 5(b) shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price per share (the “ Holder Redemption Price ”) equal to the Stated Value of the Preferred Share being redeemed as of the Company Redemption Date. The Holder may exercise its right to require redemption under this Section 5(b) by delivering a written notice thereof to the Company (such notice, the “ Holder Redemption Notice ” and the date of such notice, the “ Holder Redemption Date ”).

 

(c) Mechanics of Redemptions . If a Holder has submitted a Holder Redemption Notice, the Company shall deliver the applicable Holder Redemption Price to each Holder whose Preferred Shares are being so redeemed in cash within five (5) Business Days after the Holder Redemption Date.

 

6. Noncircumvention . The Company hereby covenants and agrees that, except with the affirmative vote or written consent of the Required Holders given pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Certificate of Designations, the Company will not, by amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation, its Bylaws (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Certificate of Designations, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Certificate of Designations and take all action as may be reasonably required to protect the rights of the Holders hereunder against dilution or impairment.

 

  3  

 

 

7. Voting Rights .

 

(a) Except as otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation or required by applicable law, each Holder, in its capacity as a holder of Preferred Shares, as such, shall be entitled to 3,205 votes per share (subject to adjustment for any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, reclassification, recapitalization, or like event) on all matters on which stockholders are entitled to vote generally, voting together with the Common Stock (and any other class or series of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally) as a single class. As to any matters as to which the Preferred Shares shall be entitled to vote as a separate class, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock, as such, shall be entitled to one vote for each share of Preferred Stock held by such holder on the record date for determining the holders of Preferred Stock entitled to vote or express consent in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the number of votes that a Holder shall be entitled to cast on any matter submitted to a vote of stockholders generally, when aggregated with any other voting securities of the Company held by such Holder, shall not exceed 19.9% (or such greater percentage allowed by The NASDAQ Capital Market without any stockholder approval requirements) of the outstanding voting power of the Company calculated as of the Subscription Date.

 

(b) In addition to rights granted to Holders under applicable law, each Holder shall be entitled to receive the same prior notice of any stockholders’ meeting as is provided to the holders of Common Stock as well as, to the extent such action is solicited by or at the direction of or with the involvement or consent of the Company or submitted by or at the direction of or with the involvement or consent of the Company to the stockholders for their consideration and vote by written consent in lieu of a meeting, prior notice of all stockholder actions (other than actions by one or more of the Holders) to be taken by legally available means in lieu of a meeting (and copies of proxy materials, consent solicitation statements and other information sent to stockholders in connection therewith), all in accordance with the Bylaws and the DGCL.

 

8. Covenants .

  7

On or before the second (2nd) Trading Day following the date on which the Company has received a Conversion Notice (or such earlier date as required pursuant to the 1934 Act or other applicable law, rule or regulation for the settlement of a trade initiated on the applicable Conversion Date of such shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such Conversion Notice) (the “ Share Delivery Deadline ”), the Company shall (1) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to such conversion to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system or (2) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, upon the request of the Holder, issue and deliver (via reputable overnight courier) to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to such conversion.

(ii)  Company’s Failure to Timely Convert . If the Company shall fail, for any reason or for no reason, on or prior to the applicable Share Delivery Deadline, either (I) either (x) prior to the Resale Eligibility Date or if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, to issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or, (y) after the Resale Eligibility Date and if the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, to credit the balance account of the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC for such number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion of this Note (as the case may be) or (II) if after the Resale Eligibility Date a Current Public Information Failure (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) occurs and the Company fails to promptly (x) so notify the Holder and (y) deliver such shares of Common Stock electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such conversion to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian system (the event described in the immediately foregoing clause (II) is hereinafter referred as a “ Notice Failure ” and together with the event described in clause (I) above, a “ Conversion Failure ”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, (1) the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder on each day after such Share Delivery Deadline that the issuance of such shares of Common Stock is not timely effected an amount equal to 2% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock not issued to the Holder on or prior to the Share Delivery Deadline and to which the Holder is entitled, multiplied by (B) any trading price of the Common Stock selected by the Holder in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the applicable Conversion Date and ending on the applicable Share Delivery Deadline and (2) the Holder, upon written notice to the Company, may void its Conversion Notice with respect to, and retain or have returned (as the case may be) any portion of this Note that has not been converted pursuant to such Conversion Notice, provided that the voiding of a Conversion Notice shall not affect the Company’s obligations to make any payments which have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section 3(c)(ii) or otherwise. In addition to the foregoing, if on or prior to the Share Delivery Deadline and after the Resale Eligibility Date either (A) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, the Company shall fail to issue and deliver to the Holder (or its designee) a certificate and register such shares of Common Stock on the Company’s share register or, if the Transfer Agent is participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, the Transfer Agent shall fail to credit the balance account of the Holder or the Holder’s designee with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion hereunder or pursuant to the Company’s obligation pursuant to clause (II) below or (B) a Notice Failure occurs, and if on or after such Share Delivery Deadline the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock corresponding to all or any portion of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion that the Holder is entitled to receive from the Company and has not received from the Company in connection with such Conversion Failure or Notice Failure, as applicable (a “ Buy-In ”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Holder, the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days after receipt of the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either: (I) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (including, without limitation, by any other Person in respect, or on behalf, of the Holder) (the “ Buy-In Price ”), at which point the Company’s obligation to so issue and deliver such certificate (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion hereunder (as the case may be) (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) shall terminate, or (II) promptly honor its obligation to so issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock or credit the balance account of such Holder or such Holder’s designee, as applicable, with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon the Holder’s conversion hereunder (as the case may be) and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (x) such number of shares of Common Stock multiplied by (y) the lowest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date of the applicable Conversion Notice and ending on the date of such issuance and payment under this clause (II) (the “ Buy-In Payment Amount ”). Nothing shall limit the Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock (or to electronically deliver such shares of Common Stock) upon the conversion of this Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any given Notice Failure and/or Conversion Failure, this Section 3(c)(ii) shall not apply to the Holder to the extent the Company has already paid such amounts in full to such Holder with respect to such Notice Failure and/or Conversion Failure, as applicable, pursuant to the analogous sections of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

(iii)  Registration; Book-Entry . The Company shall maintain a register (the “ Register ”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the holders of each Note and the principal amount of the Notes and Restricted Principal held by such holders (the “ Registered Notes ”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The Company and the holders of the Notes shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Note for all purposes (including, without limitation, the right to receive payments of Principal and Interest hereunder) notwithstanding notice to the contrary. A Registered Note may be assigned, transferred or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register. Upon its receipt of a written request to assign, transfer or sell all or part of any Registered Note by the holder thereof, the Company shall record the information contained therein in the Register and issue one or more new Registered Notes in the same aggregate principal amount as the principal amount of the surrendered Registered Note to the designated assignee or transferee pursuant to Section 19, provided that if the Company does not so record an assignment, transfer or sale (as the case may be) of all or part of any Registered Note within two (2) Business Days of such a request, then the Register shall be automatically deemed updated to reflect such assignment, transfer or sale (as the case may be). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 3, following conversion of any portion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless (A) the full Outstanding Amount represented by this Note is being converted (in which event this Note shall be delivered to the Company following conversion thereof as contemplated by Section 3(c)(i)) or (B) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Conversion Notice) requesting reissuance of this Note upon physical surrender of this Note. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the Principal, Interest, Late Charges and Make-Whole Amounts converted and/or paid (as the case may be) or Restricted Principal becoming unrestricted and the dates of such conversions, Investor Prepayments and/or payments (as the case may be) 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 conversion. If the Company does not update the Register to record such Principal, Interest, Late Charges and Make-Whole Amounts converted and/or paid (as the case may be) or Restricted Principal becoming unrestricted and the dates of such conversions, Investor Prepayment and/or payments (as the case may be) within two (2) Business Days of such occurrence, then the Register shall be automatically deemed updated to reflect such occurrence.

 

(iv)  Pro Rata Conversion; Disputes . In the event that the Company receives a Conversion Notice from more than one holder of Notes for the same Conversion Date and the Company can convert some, but not all, of such portions of the Notes submitted for conversion, the Company, subject to Section 3(d), shall convert from each holder of Notes electing to have Notes converted on such date a pro rata amount of such holder’s portion of its Notes submitted for conversion based on the principal amount of Notes submitted for conversion on such date by such holder relative to the aggregate principal amount of all Notes submitted for conversion on such date. In the event of a dispute as to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder in connection with a conversion of this Note, the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock not in dispute and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 24.

(d)  Limitations on Conversions . The Company shall not effect the conversion of any portion of this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Note and any such conversion shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, the Holder together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% (the “ Maximum Percentage ”) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Holder and all other Attribution Parties plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining, nonconverted portion of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of the other Attribution Parties and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants, including, without limitation, the November Notes or the January Notes, if any) beneficially owned by the Holder or any other Attribution Party subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained in this Section 3(d). For purposes of this Section 3(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act. For purposes of determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock the Holder may acquire upon the conversion of this Note without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent, if any, setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (the “ Reported Outstanding Share Number ”). If the Company receives a Conversion Notice from the Holder at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, the Company shall notify the Holder in writing of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such Conversion Notice would otherwise cause the Holder’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 3(d), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, the Holder must notify the Company of a reduced number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased pursuant to such Conversion Notice. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day confirm orally and in writing or by electronic mail to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, by the Holder and any other Attribution Party since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Holder upon conversion of this Note results in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (as determined under Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act), the number of shares so issued by which the Holder’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the “ Excess Shares ”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and the Holder shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase (with such increase not effective until the sixty-first (61 st ) day after delivery of such notice) or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first (61 st ) day after such notice is delivered to the Company and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and the other Attribution Parties and not to any other holder of Notes that is not an Attribution Party of the Holder. For purposes of clarity, the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the terms of this Note in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Holder for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16A-2(a)(1) of the 1934 Act. No prior inability to convert this Note pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of convertibility. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 3(d) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph (or any portion of this paragraph) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 3(d) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor holder of this Note.

(e)  Right of Alternate Conversion .

 

(i)  Alternate Conversion Upon an Event of Default . At any time during an Event of Default Redemption Right Period (as defined below) (regardless of whether such Event of Default has been cured or if the Holder has delivered an Event of Default Redemption Notice to the Company), but solely with respect to such portion of any Event of Default Redemption Right Period (if any) occurring after the Stockholder Approval Date (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), the Holder may, at the Holder’s option, convert (each, an “ Alternate Conversion ”, and the date of such Alternate Conversion, each, an “ Alternate Conversion Date ”) all, or any part of, the Outstanding Amount (such portion of the Outstanding Amount subject to such Alternate Conversion, the “ Alternate Outstanding Amount ”) into shares of Common Stock at the Alternate Conversion Event of Default Price.

 

(ii)  Mechanics of Alternate Conversion . On any Alternate Conversion Date, the Holder may voluntarily convert any Alternate Outstanding Amount pursuant to Section 3(c) (with “Alternate Conversion Event of Default Price” replacing “Conversion Price” for all purposes hereunder with respect to such Alternate Conversion and, solely with respect to the calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Outstanding Amount in an Alternate Conversion, with “Redemption Premium of the Outstanding Amount” replacing “Outstanding Amount” in clause (x) of the definition of Conversion Rate above with respect to such Alternate Conversion) by designating in the Conversion Notice delivered pursuant to this Section 3(e) of this Note that the Holder is electing to use the Alternate Conversion Event of Default Price for such conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3(e), but subject to Section 3(d), until the Company delivers shares of Common Stock representing the applicable Alternate Outstanding Amount to the Holder, such Alternate Outstanding Amount may be converted by the Holder into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3(c) without regard to this Section 3(e).

(xii) other than as specifically set forth in another clause of this Section 4(a), the Company or any Subsidiary breaches any representation or warranty in any material respect (other than representations or warranties subject to material adverse effect or materiality limitations, which may not be breached in any respect) or any covenant or other term or condition of any Transaction Document, except, in the case of a breach of a covenant or other term or condition that is curable, only if such breach remains uncured for a period of ten (10) consecutive Trading Days;

(b)  Notice of an Event of Default; Redemption Right . Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to this Note or any Other Note, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day of becoming aware of such Event of Default deliver written notice thereof via facsimile or electronic mail and overnight courier (with next day delivery specified) (an “ Event of Default Notice ”) to the Holder. At any time after the earlier of the Holder’s receipt of an Event of Default Notice and the Holder becoming aware of an Event of Default, (such earlier date, the “ Event of Default Right Commencement Date ”) and ending (such ending date, the “ Event of Default Right Expiration Date ”, and each such period, an “ Event of Default Redemption Right Period ”) on the twentieth (20 th ) Trading Day after the later of (x) the date such Event of Default is cured and (y) the Holder’s receipt of an Event of Default Notice that includes (I) a reasonable description of the applicable Event of Default, (II) a certification as to whether, in the opinion of the Company, such Event of Default is capable of being cured and, if applicable, a reasonable description of any existing plans of the Company to cure such Event of Default and (III) a certification as to the date the Event of Default occurred and, if cured on or prior to the date of such Event of Default Notice, the applicable Event of Default Right Expiration Date, the Holder may require the Company to redeem the Holder may require the Company to redeem (regardless of whether such Event of Default has been cured) all or any portion of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (the “ Event of Default Redemption Notice ”) to the Company, which Event of Default Redemption Notice shall indicate the portion of this Note the Holder is electing to redeem. Each portion of this Note subject to redemption by the Company pursuant to this Section 4(b) shall be redeemed by the Company at a price equal to the greater of (i) the product of (A) the Outstanding Amount to be redeemed multiplied by (B) the Redemption Premium and (ii) the product of (X) the Conversion Rate with respect to the Outstanding Amount in effect at such time as the Holder delivers an Event of Default Redemption Notice multiplied by (Y) the product of (1) the Redemption Premium multiplied by (2) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date immediately preceding such Event of Default and ending on the date the Company makes the entire payment required to be made under this Section 4(b) (the “ Event of Default Redemption Price ”). Redemptions required by this Section 4(b) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 12. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 4(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of this Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4(b), but subject to Section 3(d), until the Event of Default Redemption Price (together with any Late Charges thereon) is paid in full, the Outstanding Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 4(b) (together with any Late Charges thereon) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Note. In the event of the Company’s redemption of any portion of this Note under this Section 4(b), the Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 4(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty. Any redemption upon an Event of Default shall not constitute an election of remedies by the Holder, and all other rights and remedies of the Holder shall be preserved.

 

(c)  Mandatory Redemption upon Bankruptcy Event of Default . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, and notwithstanding any conversion that is then required or in process, upon any Bankruptcy Event of Default, whether occurring prior to or following the Maturity Date, the Company shall immediately pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing (i) all outstanding Principal, accrued and unpaid Interest, Make-Whole Amounts and accrued and unpaid Late Charges on such Principal, Interest and Make-Whole Amounts, multiplied by (ii) the Redemption Premium, in addition to any and all other amounts due hereunder, without the requirement for any notice or demand or other action by the Holder or any other person or entity, except that any Restricted Principal then outstanding hereunder shall be satisfied through Bankruptcy Event of Default Netting (as defined in the Investor Note) (in lieu of such cash payment hereunder); provided that the Holder may, in its sole discretion, waive such right to receive payment upon a Bankruptcy Event of Default, in whole or in part, and any such waiver shall not affect any other rights of the Holder hereunder, including any other rights in respect of such Bankruptcy Event of Default, any right to conversion, and any right to payment of the Event of Default Redemption Price or any other Redemption Price, as applicable.

5.  RIGHTS UPON FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION .

 

(a)  Assumption . The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless (i) the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5(a) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder prior to such Fundamental Transaction, including agreements to deliver to each holder of Notes in exchange for such Notes a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to the Notes, including, without limitation, having a principal amount and interest rate equal to the principal amounts then outstanding and the interest rates of the Notes and, if applicable, a restricted principal equal in amount to the Restricted Principal then outstanding hereunder, respectively, held by such holder, having similar conversion rights as the Notes and having similar ranking and security to the Notes, and satisfactory to the Holder and (ii) the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) is a publicly traded corporation whose common stock is quoted on or listed for trading on an Eligible Market. Upon the occurrence of any Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Note and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of a Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon conversion or redemption of this Note at any time after the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property (except such items still issuable under Sections 6 and 16, which shall continue to be receivable thereafter)) issuable upon the conversion or redemption of the Notes prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of the publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of such Fundamental Transaction had this Note been converted immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Note), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may elect, at its sole option, by delivery of written notice to the Company to waive this Section 5(a) to permit the Fundamental Transaction without the assumption of this Note. The provisions of this Section 4(c) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Note.

 

  15  

 

 

(b)  Notice of a Change of Control; Redemption Right . No sooner than twenty (20) Trading Days nor later than ten (10) Trading Days prior to the consummation of a Change of Control (the “ Change of Control Date ”), but not prior to the public announcement of such Change of Control, the Company shall deliver written notice thereof via facsimile or electronic mail and overnight courier to the Holder (a “ Change of Control Notice ”). At any time during the period beginning after the Holder’s receipt of a Change of Control Notice or the Holder becoming aware of a Change of Control if a Change of Control Notice is not delivered to the Holder in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence (as applicable) and ending on the later of twenty (20) Trading Days after (A) consummation of such Change of Control or (B) the date of receipt of such Change of Control Notice, the Holder may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (“ Change of Control Redemption Notice ”) to the Company, which Change of Control Redemption Notice shall indicate the Outstanding Amount the Holder is electing to redeem. The portion of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 5 shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to the greatest of (i) the product of (w) the Change of Control Redemption Premium multiplied by (y) the Outstanding Amount being redeemed, (ii) the product of (A) the Outstanding Amount being redeemed multiplied by (B) the quotient determined by dividing (I) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the shares of Common Stock during the period beginning on the date immediately preceding the earlier to occur of (1) the consummation of the applicable Change of Control and (2) the public announcement of such Change of Control and ending on the date the Holder delivers the Change of Control Redemption Notice by (II) the Conversion Price then in effect and (iii) the product of (A) the Outstanding Amount being redeemed multiplied by (B) the quotient of (I) the aggregate cash consideration and the aggregate cash value of any non-cash consideration per share of Common Stock to be paid to the holders of the shares of Common Stock upon consummation of such Change of Control (any such non-cash consideration constituting publicly-traded securities shall be valued at the highest of the Closing Sale Price of such securities as of the Trading Day immediately prior to the consummation of such Change of Control, the Closing Sale Price of such securities on the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of such proposed Change of Control and the Closing Sale Price of such securities on the Trading Day immediately prior to the public announcement of such proposed Change of Control) divided by (II) the Conversion Price then in effect (the “ Change of Control Redemption Price ”). Redemptions required by this Section 5 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 12 and shall have priority to payments to stockholders in connection with such Change of Control. To the extent redemptions required by this Section 5(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of this Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5, but subject to Section 3(d), until the Change of Control Redemption Price (together with any Late Charges thereon) is paid in full, the Outstanding Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 5(b) (together with any Late Charges thereon) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 3. In the event of the Company’s redemption of any portion of this Note under this Section 5(b), the Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 5(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.

6.  RIGHTS UPON ISSUANCE OF PURCHASE RIGHTS AND OTHER CORPORATE EVENTS .

 

(a)  Purchase Rights . In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 7 below, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to all or substantially all of the record holders of any class of Common Stock (the “ Purchase Rights ”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note and assuming for such purpose that the Note was converted at the Alternate Conversion Event of Default Price as of the applicable record date) immediately prior to the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights ( provided , however , that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to the extent of the Maximum Percentage (and shall not be entitled to beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right (and beneficial ownership) to the extent of any such excess) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance (and, if such Purchase Right has an expiration date, maturity date or other similar provision, such term shall be extended by such number of days held in abeyance, if applicable) for the benefit of the Holder until such time or times, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder and the other Attribution Parties exceeding the Maximum Percentage, at which time or times the Holder shall be granted such right (and any Purchase Right granted, issued or sold on such initial Purchase Right or on any subsequent Purchase Right held similarly in abeyance (and, if such Purchase Right has an expiration date, maturity date or other similar provision, such term shall be extended by such number of days held in abeyance, if applicable)) to the same extent as if there had been no such limitation).

 

(b)  Other Corporate Events . In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a “ Corporate Event ”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to ensure that the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon a conversion of this Note, at the Holder’s option (i) in addition to the shares of Common Stock receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets to which the Holder would have been entitled with respect to such shares of Common Stock had such shares of Common Stock been held by the Holder upon the consummation of such Corporate Event (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note) or (ii) in lieu of the shares of Common Stock otherwise receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets received by the holders of shares of Common Stock in connection with the consummation of such Corporate Event in such amounts as the Holder would have been entitled to receive had this Note initially been issued with conversion rights for the form of such consideration (as opposed to shares of Common Stock) at a conversion rate for such consideration commensurate with the Conversion Rate. Provision made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in a form and substance satisfactory to the Holder. The provisions of this Section 6 shall apply similarly and equally to successive Corporate Events and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion or redemption of this Note.

7.  RIGHTS UPON ISSUANCE OF OTHER SECURITIES .

 

(a)  Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Issuance of Common Stock . If and whenever on or after the Subscription Date until the date on which none of the Notes remain outstanding, the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with this Section 7(a) is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock (including the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock owned or held by or for the account of the Company, but excluding any Excluded Securities issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold) for a consideration per share (the “ New Issuance Price ”) less than a price equal to the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale (such Conversion Price then in effect is referred to herein as the “ Applicable Price ”) (the foregoing a “ Dilutive Issuance ”), then, immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the New Issuance Price. For all purposes of the foregoing (including, without limitation, determining the adjusted Conversion Price and the New Issuance Price under this Section 7(a)), the following shall be applicable:

 

(i)  Issuance of Options . If the Company in any manner grants or sells any Options and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is at any time issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting or sale of such Option for such price per share. For purposes of this Section 7(a)(i), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is at any time issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof” shall be equal to (1) the lower of (x) the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of such Option, upon exercise of such Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof and (y) the lowest exercise price set forth in such Option for which one share of Common Stock is issuable (or may become issuable assuming all possible market conditions) upon the exercise of any such Options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof, minus (2) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to the holder of such Option (or any other Person) with respect to any one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of such Option, upon exercise of such Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof plus the value of any other consideration consisting of cash, debt forgiveness, assets or any other property received or receivable by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such Option (or any other Person). Except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such share of Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon the exercise of such Options or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof or upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

 

  18  

 

 

(ii)  Issuance of Convertible Securities . If the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is at any time issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per share. For the purposes of this Section 7(a)(ii), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is at any time issuable (or may become issuable assuming all possible market conditions) upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof” shall be equal to (1) the lower of (x) the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of the Convertible Security and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof and (y) the lowest conversion price set forth in such Convertible Security for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon conversion, exercise or exchange thereof or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof minus (2) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to the holder of such Convertible Security (or any other Person) with respect to any one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of such Convertible Security plus the value of any other consideration received or receivable consisting of cash, debt forgiveness, assets or other property by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such Convertible Security (or any other Person). Except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof, and if any such issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustment of the Conversion Price has been or is to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 7(a), except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made by reason of such issuance or sale.

 

(iii)  Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion . If the purchase or exercise price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock increases or decreases at any time (other than proportional changes in conversion or exercise prices, as applicable, in connection with an event referred to in Section 7(a) below), the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities provided for such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate (as the case may be) at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 7(a)(iii), if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the Subscription Date are increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant to this Section 7(a) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Conversion Price then in effect.

 

  19  

 

 

(iv)  Calculation of Consideration Received . If any Option and/or Convertible Security is issued in connection with the issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale of any other securities of the Company (as determined by the Holder, the “ Primary Security ”, and such Option and/or Convertible Security, the “ Secondary Securities ”, and together with the Primary Security, each a “ Unit ”), together comprising one integrated transaction, (or one or more transactions if such issuances or sales or deemed issuances or sales of securities of the Company either (A) have at least one investor or purchaser in common, (B) are consummated in reasonable proximity to each other and/or (C) are consummated under the same plan of financing) the aggregate consideration per share of Common Stock with respect to such Primary Security shall be deemed to be equal to the difference of (x) the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock was issued (or was deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 7(a)(i) or 7(a)(ii) above, as applicable) in such integrated transaction solely with respect to such Primary Security, minus (y) with respect to such Secondary Securities, the sum of the fair value of each Secondary Security included in such Unit as mutually determined in good faith by the Company and the Required Holders, in each case, as determined on a per share basis in accordance with this Section 7(a)(iv). If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, in the form of debt forgiveness, assets or other property or other benefit conferred upon the Company, the amount of such consideration received by the Company will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of publicly traded securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company for such securities will be the arithmetic average of the VWAPs of such security for each of the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding the date of receipt. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities (as the case may be). The fair value of any consideration other than cash or publicly traded securities will be determined jointly by the Company and the Holder. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “ Valuation Event ”), the fair value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Trading Days after the tenth (10 th ) day following such Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Holder. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company.

 

  20  

 

 

(v)  Record Date . If the Company takes a record of the holders of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issuance or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase (as the case may be).

 

(b)  Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock . Without limiting any provision of Sections 5, 6 or 16, if the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, recapitalization or other similar transaction) 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 Sections 5, 6 or 16, if the Company at any time on or after the Subscription Date combines (by any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, recapitalization or other similar transaction) 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 7(a) shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this Section 7(a) 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.

 

(c)  Other Events . In the event that the Company (or any Subsidiary) shall take any action to which the provisions hereof are not strictly applicable, or, if applicable, would not operate to protect the Holder from dilution or if any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 7 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then the Company’s board of directors shall in good faith determine and implement an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price so as to protect the rights of the Holder, provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 7(c) will increase the Conversion Price as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 7, provided further that if the Holder does not accept such adjustments as appropriately protecting its interests hereunder against such dilution, then the Company’s board of directors and the Holder shall agree, in good faith, upon an independent investment bank of nationally recognized standing to make such appropriate adjustments, whose determination shall be final and binding absent manifest error and whose fees and expenses shall be borne by the Company.

 

(d)  Calculations . All calculations under this Section 7 shall be made by rounding to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100 th of a share, as applicable. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.

 

  21  

 

 

(e)  Voluntary Adjustment by Company . The Company may at any time during the term of this Note, with the prior written consent of the Required Holders, reduce the then current Conversion Price of each of the Notes to any amount greater than or equal to the Default Floor Price and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the board of directors of the Company.

 

(f)  Conversion Floor Price . Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment pursuant to clauses (a), (c), or (e) of this Section 7 shall cause the Conversion Price to be less than $1.00 (as adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction occurring after the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement) (or such lower price as mutually determined by the Company and the Holder in writing, subject to the prior consent of the Principal Market) (the “ Floor Price ”); provided, that nothing contained in this Section 7(f) shall apply after the Company has obtained the Stockholder Approval (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) and any adjustments hereunder that, but for this Section 7(f), would have occurred prior to the Stockholder Approval Date, shall occur on the Stockholder Approval Date.

 

8.  REDEMPTIONS AT THE COMPANY’S ELECTION .

 

(a)  Company Optional Redemption . At any time no Equity Conditions Failure exists (unless waived in writing by the Holder) and, as of the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date, no January Notes, November Notes or Preferred Shares remain outstanding or any Notes with any Unrestricted Principal (as defined in the applicable Note) remain outstanding, subject to the Company’s compliance with Section 1(e) above, the Company shall have the right to redeem all, but not less than all, of the Outstanding Amount then remaining under this Note (the “ Company Optional Redemption Amount ”) on the Company Optional Redemption Date (each as defined below) (a “ Company Optional Redemption ”). The portion of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 8(a) shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price (the “ Company Optional Redemption Price ”) equal to 115% of the Outstanding Amount being redeemed as of the Company Optional Redemption Date (which, with respect to any Restricted Principal hereunder, may be recouped and reduced on a dollar for dollar basis by the surrender for cancellation of such portion of the Investor Note equal to the amount of Restricted Principal included in such Company Optional Redemption hereunder). The Company may exercise its right to require redemption under this Section 8(a) by delivering a written notice thereof by facsimile or electronic mail and overnight courier to all, but not less than all, of the holders of Notes (the “ Company Optional Redemption Notice ” and the date all of the holders of Notes received such notice is referred to as the “ Company Optional Redemption Notice Date ”). The Company may deliver only one Company Optional Redemption Notice hereunder and such Company Optional Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable. The Company Optional Redemption Notice shall (x) state the date on which the Company Optional Redemption shall occur (the “ Company Optional Redemption Date ”) which date shall not be less than ten (10) Trading Days nor more than thirty (30) Trading Days following the Company Optional Redemption Notice Date, (y) certify that there has been no Equity Conditions Failure (or specifying any such Equity Conditions Failure that then exists, with an acknowledgement that unless such Equity Conditions are waived by the Holder, in its sole discretion, such Company Optional Redemption Notice will be invalid) and (z) state the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes which is being redeemed in such Company Optional Redemption from the Holder and all of the other holders of the Notes pursuant to this Section 8(a) (and analogous provisions under the Other Notes) on the Company Optional Redemption Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) if no Equity Conditions Failure has occurred as of the Company Optional Redemption Notice Date but an Equity Conditions Failure occurs at any time prior to the Company Optional Redemption Date, (A) the Company shall provide the Holder a subsequent notice to that effect and (B) unless the Holder, in its sole discretion., waives the Equity Conditions Failure, the Company Optional Redemption shall be cancelled and the applicable Company Optional Redemption Notice shall be null and void and (ii) at any time prior to the date the Company Optional Redemption Price is paid, in full, the Company Optional Redemption Amount may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3. All Outstanding Amounts converted by the Holder after the Company Optional Redemption Notice Date shall reduce the Company Optional Redemption Amount of this Note required to be redeemed on the Company Optional Redemption Date. Redemptions made pursuant to this Section 8(a) shall be made in accordance with Section 12. In the event of the Company’s redemption of any portion of this Note under this Section 8(a), the Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder. Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 8(a) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall have no right to effect a Company Optional Redemption if any Event of Default has occurred and continuing, but any Event of Default shall have no effect upon the Holder’s right to convert this Note in its discretion.

 

  22  

 

 

(b)  Pro Rata Redemption Requirement . If the Company elects to cause a Company Optional Redemption of this Note pursuant to Section 8(a), then it must simultaneously take the same action with respect to all of the Other Notes.

 

9.  HOLDER’S RIGHT OF OPTIONAL REDEMPTION .

 

(a)  Early Optional Redemption . At any time from and after the seven month anniversary of the Issuance Date, the Holder shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to require that the Company redeem (an “ Early Initial Optional Redemption ”) all or any portion of the Initial Unrestricted Principal of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (an “ Early Initial Optional Redemption Notice ”) to the Company. At any time from and after the seven month anniversary of any given Investor Prepayment (the Outstanding Amount hereunder including such portion of Restricted Principal that became Unrestricted Principal in such Investor Prepayment, each an “ Eligible Additional Redemption Amount ”), the Holder shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to require that the Company redeem (an “ Early Additional Optional Redemption ”, and together with each Early Initial Optional Redemption, each an “ Early Optional Redemption ”) all, or any portion, of such Eligible Additional Redemption Amount of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (an “ Early Additional Optional Redemption Notice ”, and together with each Early Initial Optional Redemption Notice, each an “ Early Optional Redemption Notice ”) to the Company.

 

  23  

 

 

(b)  Financing Optional Redemption . At any time any Unrestricted Principal remains outstanding hereunder, if the consummation of a Financing occurs (x) prior to 12:00 PM, New York city time, on any given date, by no later than 5:00 PM, New York city time, on such date or (y) after 12:00 PM, New York city time, on any given date, by no later than 9:00 AM, New York city time, on the immediately subsequent Trading Day, as applicable, the Company shall deliver written notice to the Holder (each, a “ Financing Notice ” and, such date, the “ Financing Notice Date ”) setting forth (i) the date of consummation of such Financing, (ii) the consideration paid to, or to be paid to, the Company in such Financing, (iii) the Financing Proceeds Allocation (as defined below) with respect to such Financing, and (iv) the applicable Available Financing Proceeds of the Holder with respect to such Financing, if any. At any time from and after the date the Holder becomes aware of the occurrence of a potential Financing and ending on the third (3rd) Trading Day after the Financing Notice Date (each, an “ Financing Redemption Period End Date ”), the Holder shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to require that the Company redeem (each a “ Financing Optional Redemption ”, and together with each Early Optional Redemption, each an “ Optional Redemption ”) all, or any portion, of an Outstanding Amount of this Note (other than any Outstanding Amount with respect to Restricted Principal hereunder) not in excess of the Available Financing Proceeds of the Holder by delivering written notice thereof (an “ Financing Optional Redemption Notice ” and together with each Early Optional Redemption Notice, each an “ Optional Redemption Notice ”) to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Major Holder is participating in a Financing, upon the written request of such Major Holder, the Company shall apply all, or any part, as set forth in such written request, of any Available Financing Proceeds (as defined in such Major Holder’s Note) of such Major Holder (without regard for any reduction for reasonable placement agent, underwriter and/or legal fees and expenses, if any, related thereto) with respect to such Financing, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, against the Applicable Prepayment, exercise price or purchase price of the securities to be purchased by the Major Holder, as applicable, in such Financing. With respect to any Financing after the initial Issuance Date, any Applicable Prepayment Proceeds, Applicable Option Proceeds or Applicable Subsequent Placement Proceeds shall be allocated among the holders of Notes as follows (the “ Financing Proceeds Allocation ”):

 

(I) First , with respect to the first $7 million, in the aggregate, of any Applicable Prepayment Proceeds, Applicable Option Proceeds and/or Applicable Subsequent Placement Proceeds, the applicable Major Holder Pro Rata Amount to each of the Major Holders (except that only $5 million of Applicable Subsequent Placement Proceeds may include gross proceeds from an offering pursuant to the ATM); and

 

(II) Second , with respect to any other Applicable Prepayment Proceeds, Applicable Option Proceeds and/or Applicable Subsequent Placement Proceeds (excluding any gross proceeds from the ATM by the Company), as applicable, the Holder Pro Rata Amount (as defined in the applicable Note of each such holder of Notes) to each of the holders of Notes.

 

  24  

 

 

(c)  Mechanics . The Optional Redemption Notice shall indicate the portion of the Outstanding Amount, in accordance with this Section 9, the Holder is electing to have redeemed (the “ Optional Redemption Amount ”) and the date of such Optional Redemption (the “ Optional Redemption Date ”), which shall be (I) for an Early Optional Redemption, a date at least five (5) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of such Early Optional Redemption Notice or (II) for a Financing Optional Redemption, if the Financing Optional Redemption Notice is delivered to the Company (x) prior to 12:00 PM, New York city time, on any given date, by no later than 5:00 PM, New York city time, on such date or (y) after 12:00 PM, New York city time, on any given date, by no later than 5:00 PM, New York city time, on the immediately subsequent Trading Day. The portion of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 9 shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to 100% of the Optional Redemption Amount (the “ Optional Redemption Price ”). Redemptions required by this Section 9 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 12. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9, but subject to Section 3(d), until the Holder receives the Optional Redemption Price, the Optional Redemption Amount may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 3, and any such conversion shall reduce the Optional Redemption Amount in the manner set forth by the Holder in the applicable Conversion Notice.

 

10.  NONCIRCUMVENTION . The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement), Bylaws (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note, and will at all times in good faith carry out all of the provisions of this Note and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder of this Note. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision of this Note or the other Transaction Documents, the Company (a) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon conversion of this Note above the Conversion Price then in effect, and (b) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if after the sixty (60) calendar day anniversary of the Issuance Date, the Holder is not permitted to convert this Note in full for any reason (other than pursuant to restrictions set forth in Section 3(d) hereof), the Company shall use its best efforts to promptly remedy such failure, including, without limitation, obtaining such consents or approvals as necessary to permit such conversion into shares of Common Stock.

 

11.  RESERVATION OF AUTHORIZED SHARES .

 

(a)  Reservation . So long as any Notes remain outstanding, either (x) from the Issuance Date until, but not including, the second (2 nd ) Business Day after such time as the Company shall have initially obtained the consent of its stockholders after the Closing Date to either (I) increase the authorized shares of the Company or (II) effect a reverse stock split of the Company (such consent, the “ Authorized Share Increase Consent ”, and the date such Authorized Share Increase Consent is obtained by the Company, the “ Authorized Share Increase Consent Date ”), the Company shall not be required to reserve any shares of Common Stock for issuance upon conversion of the Notes and (y) from and after the second (2 nd ) Business Day after the Authorized Share Increase Consent Date, the Company shall at all times reserve at least 200% of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all the Notes then outstanding (assuming for purposes hereof that (i) the Notes are convertible at the Alternate Conversion Event of Default Price as of the applicable time of determination, (ii) interest on the Notes shall accrue through the second anniversary of the Closing Date and will be converted in shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the Alternate Conversion Event of Default Price assuming an Alternate Conversion Date as of the applicable time of determination and (iii) any such conversion shall not take into account any limitations on the conversion of the Notes set forth in the Notes) (the “ Required Reserve Amount ”). The Required Reserve Amount (including, without limitation, each increase in the number of shares so reserved) shall be allocated pro rata among the holders of the Notes based on the original principal amount of the Notes held by each holder on the Closing Date or increase in the number of reserved shares, as the case may be (the “ Authorized Share Allocation ”). In the event that a holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such holder’s Notes, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such holder’s Authorized Share Allocation. Any shares of Common Stock reserved and allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any Notes shall be allocated to the remaining holders of Notes, pro rata based on the principal amount of the Notes then held by such holders.

 

  25  

 

 

(b)  Insufficient Authorized Shares . If, notwithstanding Section 11(a), and not in limitation thereof, at any time while any of the Notes remain outstanding the Company does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance upon conversion of the Notes at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Required Reserve Amount (an “ Authorized Share Failure ”), then the Company shall immediately take all action necessary to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for the Notes then outstanding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting or obtain written consent of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statement or information statement, as applicable, and shall use its best efforts to solicit or obtain its stockholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal. In the event that the Company is prohibited from issuing shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Note due to the failure by the Company to have sufficient shares of Common Stock available out of the authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (such unavailable number of shares of Common Stock, the “ Authorized Failure Shares ”), in lieu of delivering such Authorized Failure Shares to the Holder, the Company shall pay cash in exchange for the redemption of such portion of the Outstanding Amount convertible into such Authorized Failure Shares at a price equal to the sum of (i) the product of (x) such number of Authorized Failure Shares and (y) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on any Trading Day during the period commencing on the date the Holder delivers the applicable Conversion Notice with respect to such Authorized Failure Shares to the Company and ending on the date of such issuance and payment under this Section 11(a); and (ii) to the extent the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Authorized Failure Shares, any brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any, of the Holder incurred in connection therewith. Nothing contained in Section 11(a) or this Section 11(b) shall limit any obligations of the Company under any provision of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

 

  26  

 

 

12.  REDEMPTIONS .

 

(a)  Mechanics . The Company shall deliver the applicable Event of Default Redemption Price to the Holder in cash within five (5) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of the Holder’s Event of Default Redemption Notice. If the Holder has submitted a Change of Control Redemption Notice in accordance with Section 5(b), the Company shall deliver the applicable Change of Control Redemption Price to the Holder in cash concurrently with the consummation of such Change of Control if such notice is received prior to the consummation of such Change of Control and within five (5) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of such notice otherwise. The Company shall deliver the applicable Optional Redemption Price to the Holder in cash on the applicable Optional Redemption Date. The Company shall deliver the applicable Company Optional Redemption Price to the Holder in cash on the applicable Company Optional Redemption Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in connection with any redemption hereunder at a time the Holder is entitled to receive a cash payment under any of the other Transaction Documents, at the option of the Holder delivered in writing to the Company, the applicable Redemption Price hereunder shall be increased by the amount of such cash payment owed to the Holder under such other Transaction Document and, upon payment in full or conversion in accordance herewith, shall satisfy the Company’s payment obligation under such other Transaction Document. In the event of a redemption of less than all of the Outstanding Amount of this Note, the Company shall promptly cause to be issued and delivered to the Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 19(d)) representing the outstanding Principal which has not been redeemed. In the event that the Company does not pay the applicable Redemption Price to the Holder within the time period required, at any time thereafter and until the Company pays such unpaid Redemption Price in full, the Holder shall have the option, in lieu of redemption, to require the Company to promptly return to the Holder all or any portion of this Note representing the Outstanding Amount that was submitted for redemption and for which the applicable Redemption Price (together with any Late Charges thereon) has not been paid. Upon the Company’s receipt of such notice, (x) the applicable Redemption Notice shall be null and void with respect to such Outstanding Amount, (y) the Company shall immediately return this Note, or issue a new Note (in accordance with Section 19(d)), to the Holder, and in each case the principal amount of this Note or such new Note (as the case may be) shall be increased by an amount equal to the difference between (1) the applicable Redemption Price (as the case may be, and as adjusted pursuant to this Section 12, if applicable) minus (2) the Principal portion of the Outstanding Amount submitted for redemption and (z) the Conversion Price of this Note or such new Notes (as the case may be) shall be automatically adjusted with respect to each conversion effected thereafter by the Holder to the lowest of (A) the Conversion Price as in effect on the date on which the applicable Redemption Notice is voided, (B) the greater of (x) the Default Floor Price and (y) 75% of the lowest Closing Bid Price of the Common Stock during the period beginning on and including the date on which the applicable Redemption Notice is delivered to the Company and ending on and including the date on which the applicable Redemption Notice is voided and (C) the greater of (x) the Default Floor Price and (y) 75% of the quotient of (I) the sum of the five (5) lowest VWAPs of the Common Stock during the twenty (20) consecutive Trading Day period ending and including the Trading Day immediately preceding the applicable Conversion Date divided by (II) five (5) (it being understood and agreed that all such determinations shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar transaction during such period). The Holder’s delivery of a notice voiding a Redemption Notice and exercise of its rights following such notice shall not affect the Company’s obligations to make any payments of Late Charges which have accrued prior to the date of such notice with respect to the Outstanding Amount subject to such notice.

 

  27  

 

 

(b)  Redemption by Other Holders . Upon the Company’s receipt of notice from any of the holders of the Other Notes for redemption or repayment as a result of an event or occurrence substantially similar to the events or occurrences described in Section 4(b) or Section 5(b) (each, an “ Other Redemption Notice ”), the Company shall immediately, but no later than one (1) Business Day of its receipt thereof, forward to the Holder by facsimile or electronic mail a copy of such notice. If the Company receives a Redemption Notice and one or more Other Redemption Notices, during the seven (7) Business Day period beginning on and including the date which is two (2) Business Days prior to the Company’s receipt of the Holder’s applicable Redemption Notice and ending on and including the date which is two (2) Business Days after the Company’s receipt of the Holder’s applicable Redemption Notice and the Company is unable to redeem all principal, interest and other amounts designated in such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received during such seven (7) Business Day period, then the Company shall redeem a pro rata amount from each holder of the Notes (including the Holder) based on the principal amount of the Notes submitted for redemption pursuant to such Redemption Notice and such Other Redemption Notices received by the Company during such seven (7) Business Day period.

15.  SUBORDINATION ; SECURITY . The Unrestricted Principal outstanding hereunder, all accrued and unpaid Interest thereon and any other amounts that now or hereafter may be owing by the Company to the Holder with respect thereto shall be subordinate in right of cash payment to the prior payment (or conversion or exchange into Common Stock or other equity securities of the Company, as applicable) and satisfaction in full of the January Notes and the November Notes (other than Permitted Payments, as defined below). The Restricted Principal outstanding hereunder, all accrued and unpaid Interest thereon and any other amounts that now or hereafter may be owing by the Company to the Holder with respect thereto is secured to the extent and in the manner set forth in the Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, the Security Documents). Notwithstanding the foregoing, regardless of whether the January Notes or November Notes remain outstanding, upon the occurrence of a Financing, the Holder shall be permitted to exercise its right to effect a Financing Optional Redemption with respect to any Available Financing Proceeds related thereto (each, a “ Permitted Payment ”). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall be deemed to subordinate any shares of Common Stock or other equity securities of the Company issued to the Holder upon conversion, exchange or otherwise pursuant to the terms of this Note (the “ Permitted Equity ”) nor any cash proceeds obtained by the Holder upon any sale of any Permitted Equity to the holders of January Notes or November Notes or any other Person.

Nothing contained in this Section 8 shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.

 

9.   MISCELLANEOUS.

 

(a)   Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial . All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. The Company hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or under any of the other Transaction Documents or with any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude any Buyer from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the Company in any other jurisdiction to collect on the Company’s obligations to such Buyer or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of such Buyer. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

 

  43  

 

 

(b)   Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

 

(c)   Headings; Gender . The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are found.

 

(d)   Severability; Maximum Payment Amounts . If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (and without implication that the following is required or applicable), it is the intention of the parties that in no event shall amounts and value paid by the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries (as the case may be), or payable to or received by any of the Buyers, under the Transaction Documents (including without limitation, any amounts that would be characterized as “interest” under applicable law) exceed amounts permitted under any applicable law. Accordingly, if any obligation to pay, payment made to any Buyer, or collection by any Buyer pursuant the Transaction Documents is finally judicially determined to be contrary to any such applicable law, such obligation to pay, payment or collection shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of such Buyer, the Company and its Subsidiaries and such amount shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by the applicable law. Such adjustment shall be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing or refunding, at the option of such Buyer, the amount of interest or any other amounts which would constitute unlawful amounts required to be paid or actually paid to such Buyer under the Transaction Documents. For greater certainty, to the extent that any interest, charges, fees, expenses or other amounts required to be paid to or received by such Buyer under any of the Transaction Documents or related thereto are held to be within the meaning of “interest” or another applicable term to otherwise be violative of applicable law, such amounts shall be pro-rated over the period of time to which they relate.

 

  44  

 

 

(e)   Entire Agreement; Amendments . This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the Buyers, the Company, its Subsidiaries, their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf, including, without limitation, any transactions by any Buyer with respect to Common Stock or the Securities, and the other matters contained herein and therein, and this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of the parties solely with respect to the matters covered herein and therein; provided, however, nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall (or shall be deemed to) (i) have any effect on any agreements any Buyer has entered into with, or any instruments any Buyer has received from, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof with respect to any prior investment made by such Buyer in the Company or (ii) waive, alter, modify or amend in any respect any obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any rights of or benefits to any Buyer or any other Person, in any agreement entered into prior to the date hereof between or among the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries and any Buyer, or any instruments any Buyer received from the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof, and all such agreements and instruments shall continue in full force and effect. Except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company nor any Buyer makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. For clarification purposes, the Recitals are part of this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Required Holders (as defined below), and any amendment to any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 9(e) shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Securities, as applicable; provided that no such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it (A) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities then outstanding or (solely vis-a-vis the other Preferred Shares and/or Notes, as applicable) disproportionately and adversely amends or modifies any term or condition of the Certificate of Designations or the Notes (it being understood that any holder of the January Notes and the November Notes may receive consideration or benefits in its capacity as a holder of the January Notes and/or the November Notes without impacting such proportionality determination hereunder) or (B) imposes any financial obligation or liability on any Buyer without such Buyer’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion). No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party, provided that the Required Holders may waive any provision of this Agreement, and any waiver of any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 9(e) shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Securities, as applicable, provided that no such waiver shall be effective to the extent that it (1) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities then outstanding (unless a party gives a waiver as to itself only) or (2) imposes any financial obligation or liability on any Buyer without such Buyer’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion). As a material inducement for each Buyer to enter into this Agreement, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (x) no due diligence or other investigation or inquiry conducted by a Buyer, any of its advisors or any of its representatives shall affect such Buyer’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (y) unless a provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document is expressly preceded by the phrase “except as disclosed in the SEC Documents,” nothing contained in any of the SEC Documents shall affect such Buyer’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. “ Required Holders ” means (I) Hudson Bay Master Fund Ltd., both prior to the Closing and, thereafter, so long as it beneficially owns any of the Notes (or any Convertible Securities issued in exchange therefore) or the Preferred Shares or any Underlying Securities and (II) after the Closing, so long as Hudson Bay Master Fund Ltd. does not beneficially owns any of the Notes (or any Convertible Securities issued in exchange therefore) or the Preferred Shares or any Underlying Securities, holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares and the Underlying Securities as of such time (excluding any Preferred Shares and Underlying Securities held by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as of such time) issued or issuable hereunder or pursuant to the Notes.

The Company shall not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Required Holders, including, without limitation, by way of a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Notes) (unless the Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions set forth in the Notes) or a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Certificate of Designations) (unless the Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions set forth in the Certificate of Designations). A Buyer may assign some or all of its rights hereunder in connection with any transfer of any of its Securities without the consent of the Company, in which event such assignee shall be deemed to be a Buyer hereunder with respect to such assigned rights.

 

(h)   No Third Party Beneficiaries . This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, other than the Indemnitees referred to in Section 9(k). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Placement Agent shall be intended third party beneficiaries of (i) the Company’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 3 hereof and (ii) each Buyer’s representations, warranties and agreements set forth in Section 2 hereof.

 

  47  

 

 

(i)   Survival . The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants shall survive the Closing. Each Buyer shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder.

 

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

 

(k)   Indemnification .

 

(i)   In consideration of each Buyer’s execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Buyer and each holder of any Securities and all of their stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing Persons’ agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “ Indemnitees ”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “ Indemnified Liabilities ”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company or any Subsidiary in any of the Transaction Documents, (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company or any Subsidiary contained in any of the Transaction Documents or (iii) any cause of action, suit, proceeding or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary) or which otherwise involves such Indemnitee that arises out of or results from (A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents, (B) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, (C) any disclosure properly made by such Buyer pursuant to Section 4(i), or (D) the status of such Buyer or holder of the Securities either as an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or as a party to this Agreement (including, without limitation, as a party in interest or otherwise in any action or proceeding for injunctive or other equitable relief). To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.

 

  48  

 

 

(ii)   Promptly after receipt by an Indemnitee under this Section 9(k) of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving an Indemnified Liability, such Indemnitee shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this Section 9(k), deliver to the Company a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the Company shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Company so desires, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the Company and the Indemnitee; provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the Company if: (A) the Company has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (B) the Company shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Indemnified Liability and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee in any such Indemnified Liability; or (C) the named parties to any such Indemnified Liability (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnitee and the Company, and such Indemnitee shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnitee and the Company (in which case, if such Indemnitee notifies the Company in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Company, then the Company shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the Company), provided further, that in the case of clause (C) above the Company shall not be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one (1) separate legal counsel for the Indemnitees. The Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the Company in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Indemnified Liability by the Company and shall furnish to the Company all information reasonably available to the Indemnitee which relates to such action or Indemnified Liability. The Company shall keep the Indemnitee reasonably apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent, provided, however, that the Company shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnitee of a release from all liability in respect to such Indemnified Liability or litigation, and such settlement shall not include any admission as to fault on the part of the Indemnitee. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the Company shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnitee 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 Company within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve the Company of any liability to the Indemnitee under this Section 9(k), except to the extent that the Company is materially and adversely prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

 

(iii)   The indemnification required by this Section 9(k) shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, within ten (10) days after bills are received or Indemnified Liabilities are incurred.

 

  49  

 

 

(iv)   The indemnity agreement contained herein shall be in addition to (A) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnitee against the Company or others, and (B) any liabilities the Company may be subject to pursuant to the law.

 

(l)   Construction . The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. No specific representation or warranty shall limit the generality or applicability of a more general representation or warranty. Each and every reference to share prices, shares of Common Stock and any other numbers in this Agreement that relate to the Common Stock shall be automatically adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar transactions that occur with respect to the Common Stock after the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty against, or a prohibition of, any actions with respect to the borrowing of, arrangement to borrow, identification of the availability of, and/or securing of, securities of the Company in order for such Buyer (or its broker or other financial representative) to effect short sales or similar transactions in the future.

 

(m)   Remedies . Each Buyer and in the event of assignment by Buyer of its rights and obligations hereunder, each holder of Securities, shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have under any law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law. Furthermore, the Company recognizes that in the event that it or any Subsidiary fails to perform, observe, or discharge any or all of its or such Subsidiary’s (as the case may be) obligations under the Transaction Documents, any remedy at law would inadequate relief to the Buyers. The Company therefore agrees that the Buyers shall be entitled to specific performance and/or temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security. The remedies provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief).

 

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

 

  50  

 

 

(o)   Payment Set Aside; Currency . To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Buyer hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or any of the Buyers enforce or exercise their rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, foreign, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred. Unless otherwise expressly indicated, all dollar amounts referred to in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are in United States Dollars (“ U.S. Dollars ”), and all amounts owing under this Agreement and all other Transaction Documents shall be paid in U.S. Dollars. All amounts denominated in other currencies (if any) shall be converted into the U.S. Dollar equivalent amount in accordance with the Exchange Rate on the date of calculation. “ Exchange Rate ” means, in relation to any amount of currency to be converted into U.S. Dollars pursuant to this Agreement, the U.S. Dollar exchange rate as published in the Wall Street Journal on the relevant date of calculation.

 

(p)   Judgment Currency .

 

(i)   If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against the Company in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in any court in any jurisdiction it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this Section 9(p) referred to as the “ Judgment Currency ”) an amount due in US Dollars under this Agreement, the conversion shall be made at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Trading Day immediately preceding:

 

(1)   the date actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of New York or in the courts of any other jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date: or

 

(2)   the date on which the foreign court determines, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section 9(p)(i)(2) being hereinafter referred to as the “ Judgment Conversion Date ”).

 

(ii)   If in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in Section 9(p)(i)(2) above, there is a change in the Exchange Rate prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the applicable party shall pay such adjusted amount as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of US Dollars which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date.

 

(iii)   Any amount due from the Company under this provision shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

 

  51  

 

 

(q)   Independent Nature of Buyers’ Obligations and Rights . The obligations of each Buyer under the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Buyer, and no Buyer shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Buyer under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Buyer pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Buyers as, and the Company acknowledges that the Buyers do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption that the Buyers are in any way acting in concert or as a group or entity, and the Company shall not assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or any matters, and the Company acknowledges that the Buyers are not acting in concert or as a group, and the Company shall not assert any such claim, with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The decision of each Buyer to purchase Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Buyer independently of any other Buyer. Each Buyer acknowledges that no other Buyer has acted as agent for such Buyer in connection with such Buyer making its investment hereunder and that no other Buyer will be acting as agent of such Buyer in connection with monitoring such Buyer’s investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents. The Company and each Buyer confirms that each Buyer has independently participated with the Company and its Subsidiaries in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each Buyer shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Buyer to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between the Company, each Subsidiary and a Buyer, solely, and not between the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Buyers collectively and not between and among the Buyers.

 

(r)   Performance Date . If the date by which any obligation under any of the Transaction Documents must be performed occurs on a day other than a Business Day, then the date by which such performance is required shall be the next Business Day following such date.

WHEREAS :

 

A. Concurrently herewith, the Company, the Investor and certain other investors (the “ Other Investors ”, and together with the Investor, the “ Investors ”) have entered into that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated June __, 2018, pursuant to which, among other things, the Investors shall acquire certain senior secured convertible notes (the “ Notes ”) of the Company (the “ Securities Purchase Agreement ”).

 

B. The Company and the Investor is executing and delivering this Agreement in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ 1933 Act ”), as promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”) under the 1933 Act.

 

C. The Investor has authorized the issuance of a new secured promissory Investor Note in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A , pursuant to the terms set forth herein (collectively, the “ Investor Note ”).

 

D. The Investor wishes to purchase Notes from the Company pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement and to issue the Investor Note in full satisfaction, of the purchase price of the Notes (the “ Note Purchase Price ”), and the Company wishes to (x) sell the Note to the Investor, (y) acquire the Investor Note in full satisfaction of the Note Purchase Price and (z) pledge the Investor Note to the Investor as collateral for its obligations under the Note.

 

E. The Investor Note will be secured by a first priority security interest in certain Eligible Assets (as defined in the Investor Note) (collectively, the “ Collateral ”) held in the collateral account of the Investor described in the Investor Note (the “ Collateral Account ”).

 

F. Concurrently herewith, each of the Company and the Investor are entering into that certain Master Netting Agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “ Master Netting Agreement ”), to provide further clarification of its right (but not, in the case of Investor only, its obligation) to Net (as defined below) certain Obligations (as defined in the Netting Agreement) arising under and across this Agreement, the Investor Note, the Notes and the Securities Purchase Agreement (collectively, the “ Underlying Agreements ”) and to treat the Master Netting Agreement, this Agreement and the other Underlying Agreements as a single agreement for the purposes set forth herein and this Agreement and the Securities Purchase Agreement each as a “securities contract” (11 U.S.C. § 741), or other similar agreements.

 

 

 

 

NOW, THEREFORE , the Company and the Investor hereby agree as follows:

 

1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF INVESTOR NOTE.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Investor Note is deemed simultaneously delivered (x) by the Investor to the Company at the Closing hereunder and (y) delivered by the Company to the Investor at the Closing (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) under the Securities Purchase Agreement, as Collateral for the Note purchased by the Investor thereunder. Other than the issuance of the Note to the Investor pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company shall not be required to pay any additional consideration for the issuance of the Investor Note hereunder. The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that the rights and obligations of the Investor under the Master Netting Agreement, hereunder and under the other Underlying Agreements and the rights and obligations of the Company under the Master Netting Agreement, hereunder and under the other Underlying Agreements arise in a single integrated transaction and constitute related and interdependent obligations within such transaction.

No Guarantor may exercise any rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against any Transaction Party or any other guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of any Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Buyer against any Transaction Party or any other guarantor or any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from any Transaction Party or any other guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security solely on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until there has been Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations. If any amount shall be paid to a Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Buyer and shall forthwith be paid to the Buyer to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Document, or to be held as Collateral for any Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guaranty thereafter arising. If (a) any Guarantor shall make payment to the Buyer of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and (b) there has been Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Buyer will, at such Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment by such Guarantor.

(ii) The execution, delivery and performance by such Guarantor of this Guaranty and each other Transaction Document to which such Guarantor is a party (A) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company or limited partnership action, (B) do not and will not contravene its charter, articles, certificate of formation or by-laws, its limited liability company or operating agreement or its certificate of partnership or partnership agreement, as applicable, or any applicable law or any contractual restriction binding on such Guarantor or its properties do not and will not result in or require the creation of any lien, security interest or encumbrance (other than pursuant to any Transaction Document) upon or with respect to any of its properties, and (C) do not and will not result in any default, noncompliance, suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to it or its operations or any of its properties.

 

(iii) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or other Person is required in connection with the due execution, delivery and performance by such Guarantor of this Guaranty or any of the other Transaction Documents to which such Guarantor is a party (other than expressly provided for in any of the Transaction Documents).

 

(iv) This Guaranty has been duly executed and delivered by each Guarantor and is, and each of the other Transaction Documents to which such Guarantor is or will be a party, when executed and delivered, will be, a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, suretyship or similar laws and equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law).

 

(v) There is no pending or, to the best knowledge of such Guarantor, threatened action, suit or proceeding against such Guarantor or to which any of the properties of such Guarantor is subject, before any court or other Governmental Authority or any arbitrator that (A) if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (B) relates to this Guaranty or any of the other Transaction Documents to which such Guarantor is a party or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby.

 

(vi) Such Guarantor (A) has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Notes and the other Transaction Documents, and (B) now has and will continue to have independent means of obtaining information concerning the affairs, financial condition and business of the Company and the other Transaction Parties, and has no need of, or right to obtain from the Buyer, any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Company or the other Transaction Parties.

 

(vii) There are no conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Guaranty that have not been satisfied or waived.

 

(b) As of the date hereof, MoviePass represents that it has no direct or indirect Subsidiaries, and therefore, as of the date hereof, MoviePass is the sole Guarantor. After the date hereof, and simultaneously with the acquisition or formation of any direct or indirect Subsidiary by MoviePass, MoviePass shall cause each such Subsidiary to execute and deliver to the Buyer a joinder to this Guaranty (in the form reasonably acceptable to Buyer) under which such Subsidiary shall agree to join this Guaranty as a Guarantor hereunder and be bound by each of the terms and conditions hereof.

SECTION 7. Right of Set-off . Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Buyer may, and is hereby authorized to, at any time and from time to time, without notice to the Guarantors (any such notice being expressly waived by each Guarantor) and to the fullest extent permitted by law, set-off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by the Buyer to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any and all obligations of the Guarantors now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty or any other Transaction Document, irrespective of whether or not the Buyer shall have made any demand under this Guaranty or any other Transaction Document and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured. The Buyer agrees to notify the relevant Guarantor promptly after any such set-off and application made by the Buyer, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Buyer under this Section 7 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Buyer may have under this Guaranty or any other Transaction Document in law or otherwise.

 

SECTION 8. Limitation on Guaranteed Obligations.

 

(a) Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, each Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be limited to an amount not to exceed as of any date of determination the greater of:

 

(i) the amount of all Guaranteed Obligations, plus interest thereon at the applicable Interest Rate and any applicable Late Charges (each as defined in each Note) as specified in the Note; and

 

(ii) the amount which could be claimed by the Buyer from any Guarantor under this Guaranty without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law after taking into account, among other things, Guarantor’s right of contribution and indemnification.

 

(b) Each Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder without impairing the guaranty hereunder or affecting the rights and remedies of the Buyer hereunder or under applicable law.

 

(c) No payment made by the Company, any Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Buyer from the Company, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations), remain liable for the Guaranteed Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until after all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been Paid in Full.

 

SECTION 9. Limitation on Actions of Buyer .

 

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Guaranty to the contrary, the Buyer hereby acknowledges and agrees that it will not exercise any remedy or enforce any obligation hereunder unless the Buyer is a Permitted Holder (provided that the foregoing shall not prevent the Buyer from commencing or participating in any Insolvency Proceeding or taking any action (other than with respect to this Guaranty) to enforce the payment or performance of any Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty).

 

  7  

 

 

(b) The Buyer hereby agrees and acknowledges that no other Buyer (nor the Required Holder(s)) has agreed to act for it as an administrative or collateral agent, and each Buyer is and shall remain solely responsible for the enforcement of this Guaranty and the attachment, perfection and priority of all Liens (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) created by any Security Document (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement). No Buyer shall have by reason of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document an agency or fiduciary relationship with any other Buyer. No Buyer (which term, as used in this sentence, shall include reference to each Buyer’s officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents and affiliates and to the officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents of such Buyer’s affiliates) shall: (i) have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Guaranty, the Securities Purchase Agreement and the other Security Documents (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) or (ii) be required to take, initiate or conduct any enforcement action (including any litigation, foreclosure or collection proceedings hereunder or under any of the other Security Documents). Without limiting the foregoing, no Buyer or Holder shall have any right of action whatsoever against any other Buyer or Holder as a result of such Buyer or Holder acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any of the Security Documents except as a result and to the extent of losses caused by such Buyer’s or Holder’s actual gross negligence or willful misconduct (it being understood and agreed by each Buyer that the delivery by Required Holders of one or more Veto Notices shall not be deemed to be or construed as gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Buyer or Holder delivering any such Veto Notice). No Buyer or Holder assumes any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or breach by any Transaction Party or any other Buyer or Holder of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. No Buyer makes to any other Buyer any express or implied warranty, representation or guarantee with respect to any obligations, Collateral, Transaction Document or Transaction Party. No Buyer or Holder nor any of its officers, directors, employees, attorneys or agents shall be responsible to any other Buyer or Holder or any of its officers, directors, employees, attorneys or agents for: (i) any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in any of the Transaction Documents or in any certificate or other document furnished pursuant to the terms hereof; (ii) the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents; (iii) the validity, genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value, sufficiency or existence of any Collateral, or the attachment, perfection or priority of any Lien (as defined in the Note) therein; or (iv) the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Transaction Party. No Buyer or Holder, nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys or agents shall have any obligation to any other Buyer or Holder to ascertain or inquire into the existence of any default or Event of Default, the observance or performance by any Transaction Party of any of the duties or agreements of such Transaction Party under any of the Transaction Documents or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in any of the Transaction Documents.

 

SECTION 10. Notices, Etc . Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Guaranty must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the sending party); or (iii) one (1) Business Day after deposit with an nationally recognized overnight courier service with next day delivery specified, in each case, properly addressed to the party to receive the same.

SECTION 11. Governing Law; Jurisdiction . All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Guaranty shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or under any of the other Transaction Documents or with any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim, obligation or defense that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under Section 9(f) of the Securities Purchase Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude the Buyer from bringing suit or taking other legal action against any Guarantor in any other jurisdiction to collect on a Guarantor’s obligations or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of the Buyer.

 

SECTION 12. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL, ETC . EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS GUARANTY, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

SECTION 13. Taxes .

 

(a) All payments made by any Guarantor hereunder or under any other Transaction Document shall be made in accordance with the terms of the respective Transaction Document and shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, withholding, deduction or other defense. Without limiting the foregoing, all such payments shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on the net income of the Buyer by the jurisdiction in which the Buyer is organized or where it has its principal lending office (all such nonexcluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities, collectively or individually, “Taxes”). If any Guarantor shall be required to deduct or to withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any amount payable hereunder or under any other Transaction Document:

 

(i) the amount so payable shall be increased to the extent necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including Taxes on amounts payable to the Buyer pursuant to this sentence) the Buyer receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made,

 

(ii) such Guarantor shall make such deduction or withholding,

 

(iii) such Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, and

 

(iv) as promptly as possible thereafter, such Guarantor shall send the Buyer an official receipt (or, if an official receipt is not available, such other documentation as shall be satisfactory to the Buyer, as the case may be) showing payment. In addition, each Guarantor agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, this Guaranty or any other Transaction Document (collectively, “Other Taxes”).

 

(b) Each Guarantor hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold each Indemnified Party harmless from and against Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 13) paid by any Indemnified Party as a result of any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, this Guaranty or any other Transaction Document, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses for nonpayment, late payment or otherwise) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be paid within thirty (30) days from the date on which the Buyer makes written demand therefor, which demand shall identify the nature and amount of such Taxes or Other Taxes.

 

(c) If any Guarantor fails to perform any of its obligations under this Section 13, such Guarantor shall indemnify the Buyer for any taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable as a result of any such failure. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Section 13 shall survive the termination of this Guaranty and the payment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder.

 

SECTION 14. Indemnification .

 

(a) Without limitation of any other obligations of any Guarantor or remedies of the Buyer under this Guaranty or applicable law, except to the extent resulting from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction no longer subject to appeal, each Guarantor shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless the Buyer and each of their affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party in connection with or as a result of any failure of any Guaranteed Obligations to be the legal, valid and binding obligations of any Transaction Party enforceable against such Transaction Party in accordance with their terms.

 

  9  

 

 

(b) Each Guarantor hereby also agrees that none of the Indemnified Parties shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) or any fiduciary duty or obligation to any of the Guarantors or any of their respective affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors, and each Guarantor hereby agrees not to assert any claim against any Indemnified Party on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential, incidental or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the facilities, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the advances, the Transaction Documents or any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

 

SECTION 15. Miscellaneous .

 

(a) Each Guarantor will make each payment hereunder in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds to the Buyer, at such address specified by the Buyer from time to time by notice to the Guarantors.

 

(b) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty and no consent to any departure by any Guarantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by each Guarantor and the Required Holder(s), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

 

(c) No failure on the part of the Buyer to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Transaction Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder or under any Transaction Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies of the Buyer provided herein and in the other Transaction Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law. The rights and remedies of the Buyer under any Transaction Document against any party thereto are not conditional or contingent on any attempt by the Buyer to exercise any of its rights or remedies under any other Transaction Document against such party or against any other Person.

 

(d) Any provision of this Guaranty that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

(e) This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) and shall not terminate for any reason prior to the respective Maturity Date of each Note (other than Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations) and (ii) be binding upon each Guarantor and its respective successors and assigns. This Guaranty shall inure, together with all rights and remedies of the Buyer hereunder, to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Buyer and its successor, and permitted pledgee, transferee and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the Buyer may pledge, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under and subject to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Document to any other Person in accordance with the terms thereof, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Buyer (as applicable) herein or otherwise, in each case as provided in the Securities Purchase Agreement or such Transaction Document. None of the rights or obligations of any Guarantor hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of each Buyer.

 

(f) This Guaranty and the other Transaction Documents reflect the entire understanding of the transaction contemplated hereby and shall not be contradicted or qualified by any other agreement, oral or written, entered into before the date hereof.

 

(g) Section headings herein are included for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Guaranty for any other purpose.

 

(h) This Guaranty is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, other than the Required Holders with respect to Section 9 above and the related definitions set forth herein.

SECTION 16. Currency Indemnity .

 

If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against Guarantor in any court in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this Section 16 referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due under this Guaranty in any currency (the “Obligation Currency”) other than the Judgment Currency, the conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day immediately preceding (a) the date of actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of courts of the jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date, or (b) the date on which the judgment is given, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the applicable date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section 16 being hereinafter in this Section 16 referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

 

If, in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in the preceding paragraph, there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual receipt of the amount due in immediately available funds, the Guarantors shall pay such additional amount (if any, but in any event not a lesser amount) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount actually received in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of the Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date. Any amount due from the Guarantors under this Section 16 shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of this Guaranty.

Helios and Matheson Analytics Inc. (Nasdaq: HMNY) (“HMNY”), a provider of information technology services and solutions and the 92% owner of MoviePass Inc. (“MoviePass”), the nation’s premier movie-theater subscription service, today announced that it has entered into a securities purchase agreement with institutional investors for HMNY to issue convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $164 million (the “Notes”) and 20,500 shares of preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”). The net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes and the Preferred Stock will be used for general corporate purposes. HMNY is not obligated to register the resale of any shares underlying the Notes with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Absent registration, the investors may resell the shares underlying the Notes only pursuant to Rule 144 or another available exemption from registration.

 

The Notes will be convertible, at the option of the holder, at a conversion price of $1.00, subject to adjustment. The Preferred Stock is not convertible into common stock. Each share of Preferred Stock is entitled to 3,205 votes per share on all matters on which holders of common stock are entitled to vote.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the securities purchase agreement, at the closing of the financing, the investors will pay for the Preferred Stock and the Notes with $20.5 million in cash up front and investor notes in the aggregate principal amount of $139.4 million payable to HMNY (the “Investor Notes”). Each investor may prepay its Investor Note, with the resulting cash being paid to HMNY, in its discretion.

 

Canaccord Genuity LLC acted as sole placement agent for the financing. Palladium Capital Advisors LLC acted as a financial advisor.

 

Key Transaction Details

 

The investors may require HMNY to redeem the Notes at any time after seven months from the issue date of the Notes, including the portion of outstanding principal amount of the Investor Notes for which the investors have prepaid to HMNY a corresponding amount of cash under the Investor Notes, plus accrued unpaid interest on those amounts and a make-whole amount of interest on those amounts calculated through the two-year maturity date of the Notes.

 

The Notes are not secured by any assets of HMNY other than the Investor Notes. The conversion price of the Notes is subject to adjustment in the event the Company sells shares of common stock or common stock equivalents for less than $1.00 per share in the future, subject to customary excluded issuances.

 

 

 

 

The investors may require HMNY to redeem the Preferred Stock at any time at a price of $0.01 per share. After the first 15% of the aggregate principal amount of any Note has been paid or converted, HMNY may redeem all or a portion the Preferred Stock held by the holder of that Note at a price of $0.01 per share. Each holder of the Preferred Stock will not be permitted to transfer such holder’s Preferred Stock prior to the time when at least 15% of the aggregate principal amount of such holder’s Note has been converted or paid.

 

For additional information concerning the details of the financing, please refer to the Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed by HMNY with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

 

The Notes, the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion thereof and the Preferred Stock have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any applicable state securities laws and may not be offered or sold absent such registration or pursuant to an available exemption from such registration requirements. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities nor shall there be any sale of any of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
