Each share of Series C Preferred Stock has a stated value of $2.40 per share. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock may be convertible at the holder’s option into shares of Common Stock of the Company at a conversion price of $0.60 per share, which, currently, represents four shares of Common Stock. The conversion price will be subject to standard anti-dilution provisions in connection with any stock split, stock dividend, subdivision or similar reclassification of the Common Stock. Each share of Series C Preferred stock shall be mandatorily converted into shares of Common Stock based on the then conversion price in effect in the event that the Company’s Common Stock closing price exceeds $1.20 per share for 20 consecutive trading days.

 

Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall have the right to receive dividends equal $0.24 per share per annum as declared by the Company’s Board of Directors. The dividends will be paid on a quarterly basis on the 20th day following each calendar quarter.

 

The Series C Preferred Stock shall be voted on an “as converted” basis together with the Common Stock; except the vote or consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series C Preferred voting as a class shall be required for: (i) matters that by law require the approval of the outstanding shares of the respective class; and (ii) any amendment or change of the rights, preferences, privileges or powers of, or the restrictions provided for the benefit of, the Series C Preferred. The Company may in the future issue securities that are senior, subordinated or parri passu to the Series C Preferred Stock.

 

Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall have dividend and liquidation rights in priority to any shares of Common Stock, the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock (of which none are outstanding) and any other subordinated securities; but shall be subordinated to any senior securities including the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock.

 

Each share of Series C Preferred Stock is subject to redemption by the Company for the stated value plus accrued but unpaid dividends five years after issuance, provided the holders of Series C Preferred Stock had not elected previously to convert the Series C Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock.

Description of the Warrants

 

For each Unit sold, the purchaser shall receive Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 86,667 shares of Common stock at an exercise price equal to $1.00 per share. The exercise period will begin six months after and end on the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance. The exercise price of the Warrants is subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations or similar events. The Warrants may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis upon the failure to file and maintain an effective registration statement in accordance with the terms of a registration rights agreement. Further, the Warrants will be subject to redemption for nominal consideration if the Company’s Common Stock closing price exceeds $2.00 per share for 20 consecutive trading days.

 

Registration Rights Agreement

 

The Company will file, at its expense, for the benefit of the Investors a registration statement for the resale of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Series C Preferred Stock and Warrants within 30 days after the final closing date and cause such registration statement to be declared effective within 90 days (120 day if the registration statement is selected for review by the SEC) after such closing date, subject to any resale limitation imposed by the SEC.

Exhibit 3.1

 

CERTIFICATE OF DETERMINATION

OF RIGHTS, PREFERENCES, PRIVILEGES AND RESTRICTIONS OF

SERIES C PREFERRED STOCK OF

DIGITAL POWER CORPORATION

 

 

We, Amos Kohn and Daniel B. Eng, hereby certify that we are the President and Chief Executive Officer and Secretary, respectively, of Digital Power Corporation, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of California (“Corporation”), and further do hereby certify:

 

That pursuant to the authority conferred upon the Board of Directors by the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation, the Board of Directors on March 9, 2017 (“Effective Date”) adopted the following resolution creating a series of 460,000 shares of Preferred Stock designated as Series C Preferred Stock, none of which shares have been issued.

 

RESOLVED, that the Board of Directors of the Corporation designates the Series C Preferred Stock and the number of shares constituting such series, and fixes the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions relating to such series in addition to any set forth in the Articles of Incorporation as follows:

 

A.      Designation and Amount . The Corporation shall have a series of preferred stock which shall be designated the “Series C Preferred Stock” (“Series C Preferred”) and the number of shares initially constituting such series shall be four hundred sixty thousand (460,000).

 

B.       Rights, Preferences, Privileges and Restrictions . Series C Preferred shall have the respective rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions as follows:

 

Section 1.          Dividend Rights .

 

1.1      Series C Dividends . Subject to the rights of the Senior Stock (as defined below in Section 3) and any other senior rights of preferred shares then outstanding to receive annual dividends, the holders of Series C Preferred shall be entitled to receive cash dividends out of any funds legally available therefor, prior to and in preference to any declaration or payment of any dividend (payable other than in common stock of the Corporation (“Common Stock”) or other securities and rights convertible into or entitling the holder thereof to receive, directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock) on the Common Stock or on the Series A Preferred Stock, in an amount equal to twenty-four cents ($0.24) per share of Series C Preferred per annum (as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations or the like), and any other amounts required under other provisions of this Certificate of Determination of Rights, Preferences, Privileges and Restrictions (“Certificate”) and no more (“Dividends”). The Dividends shall accrue, whether or not declared by the Board, shall be cumulative and be payable as and when declared by the Board.

 

1.2      Right to Share in Dividends Declared for Holders of Common Stock . The holders of Series C Preferred shall be entitled to share with the holders of shares of Common Stock in any cash or non-cash dividend or distribution, other than dividends payable in shares of Common Stock, on an as-converted basis, declared for holders of the Common Stock, payable when and if declared by the Board. Subject to the prior payment of any other senior dividend rights, any dividend shall be paid pro rata among the holders of the Common Stock and the holders of the Series C Parity Stock (as defined below in Section 3) on an as-converted basis. For the avoidance of doubt “on an as-converted basis” means dividends shall be paid on each share of Series C Preferred Stock as if such share of Preferred Stock and all other shares of Series C Preferred Stock had been converted to Common Stock on the basis set forth in Section 4 below (irrespective of whether any pre-condition to such conversion had been met).

 

 
 

 

 

1.3      Limitation . The holders of Series C Preferred shall not be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions except as provided in this Certificate and in accordance with applicable California law.

 

1.4      Record Holders . The Corporation shall pay dividends required hereunder to the holders of record of Series C Preferred as their names appear on the share register of the Corporation on the corresponding record date designated by the Board with respect to such dividend. The record date for purposes of determining the holders entitled to any dividend shall not be more than thirty (30) days prior to the payment date. Dividends will be paid on the 20 th day following the end of each calendar quarter.

 

Section 2.           Voting Rights .

 

2.1.      Voting Rights . Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or as required by law, each share of Series C Preferred shall entitle the holder thereof to such number of votes per share equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of Series C Preferred Stock would convert pursuant to Section 4 below (irrespective of whether any pre-condition to such conversion has been met). Except as otherwise required by the provisions of the California Corporations Code, the holders of shares of Series C Preferred, and the holders of Common Stock shall at all times vote as one class, together with the holders of any other class of stock of the Corporation accorded such general class voting right; provided, that the holders of shares of Series C Preferred shall be entitled to approve by a majority vote, as a separate class, the matters specified in Section 2.2 .

 

2.2.      Right to Vote on Specified Matters . The vote or consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Series C Preferred shall be required for: (i) matters that by law require the approval of the outstanding shares of the respective class; and (ii) any amendment or change of the rights, preferences, privileges or powers of, or the restrictions provided for the benefit of, the Series C Preferred.

 

Section 3.           Liquidation, Dissolution or Bankruptcy .

 

If the Corporation: (i) adopts a plan of liquidation or of dissolution; (ii) commences a voluntary proceeding under the federal bankruptcy law or any other applicable state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law; (iii) consents to the entry of an order for relief in any involuntary case under such law; (iv) consents to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee or sequestrator (or similar official) of the Corporation or of any substantial part of its property; (v) makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or (vi) admits in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due; and on account of any such event the Corporation shall liquidate, dissolve or wind up, then, and in that event, the holders of Series C Preferred shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Corporation to the holders of the Common Stock, the Corporation’s Series A Preferred Stock, or to the holders of any other junior series of preferred stock, by reason of their ownership thereof and subject to the rights of the Corporation’s Series B Preferred Stock and any other class or series of Corporation stock subsequently issued that ranks senior to the Series C Preferred (“Senior Stock”), an amount equal to the Stated Value (as defined below) for a share of Series C Preferred plus any accrued Dividends as provided in Section 1.1 above (“Series C Preference Amount”) ratably with any class or series ranking on a parity with the Series C Preferred (“Series C Parity Stock”) in proportion to the respective preference amounts each such holder of Series C Parity Stock would otherwise be entitled to receive. If the amount of such distribution after payment to any Senior Stock is insufficient to permit full payment of the Series C Preference Amount to the holders of the Series C Preferred, then such distribution shall be distributed ratably to the holders of the Series C Preferred and Series C Parity Stock in proportion to the respective preference amount each such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive. Any remaining funds and assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution to shareholders shall be distributed pro rata among the holders of Series C Preferred on an as-converted basis and the Common Stock. For the avoidance of doubt, “on an as-converted basis” means that each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to receive the amount of the remaining funds and assets of the Corporation that such holder would have been entitled to receive had such shares of Series C Preferred Stock and all other shares of Series C Preferred Stock been converted to Common Stock on the basis set forth in Section 4 below (irrespective of whether any pre-condition to such conversion had been met).

4.4.      Right to Dividends . Upon conversion of any shares of Series C Preferred, each holder thereof shall be entitled to receive any accrued and unpaid dividends in respect of the shares so converted.

 

4.5.      No Fractional Shares .

8.2      Acknowledgement of Corporation ’s Obligations .

In the case of any adjustment or re-adjustment in the Conversion Shares issuable upon the conversion of the Series C Preferred, the Corporation at its expense will promptly compute the adjustment or re-adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Series C Preferred and cause its Chief Financial Officer to certify the computation (other than any computation of the fair value of property as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation) and prepare a report setting forth the adjustment or re-adjustment and showing in reasonable detail the method of calculation thereof and the facts upon which the adjustment or re-adjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding or deemed to be outstanding and (b) the conversion rate in effect immediately prior to the deemed issuance or sale and as adjusted and re-adjusted (if required by Section 4 hereof) on account thereof.

(b)     The Corporation shall cause to be kept at its office maintained pursuant to Section 12.2(a) hereof a Series C Preferred Register for the registration and transfer of the Series C Preferred.

DIGITAL POWER CORPORATION

 

REDEEMABLE COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

 

May __, 2017

 

THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (this “ Warrant ”) of Digital Power Corporation , a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of California (the “ Company ”), is issued to the Holder (as defined below) as part of a unit purchased by the Holder from the Company pursuant to which the Holder is also purchasing shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock from the Company (the “Offering”)..

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Company hereby certifies that the registered holder hereof, [●] , with an address at [●] , and the Holder’s successors and assigns (the “ Holder ”), is entitled to purchase from the Company [●] duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock, no par value (the “ Common Stock ”), at a purchase price equal to $1.00 per share, as may be adjusted pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions set forth herein (the “ Warrant Price ”). The Holder is registered on the records of the Company regarding registration and transfer of the Warrant (the “ Warrant Register ”) and is the owner and Holder thereof for all purposes, except as described in Section 13 hereof.

 

1.       Warrant Exercise . This Warrant shall become exercisable six months after the date hereof.

 

2.       Expiration of Warrant . This Warrant shall expire on [five years after Initial Closing Date] (the “ Expiration Date ”).

3.1      Manner of Exercise. This Warrant may only be exercised by the Holder hereof, in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, in whole or in part with respect to any portion of this Warrant, into shares of Common Stock (the “ Warrant Shares ”), during normal business hours on any day other than a Saturday or a Sunday or a day on which commercial banking institutions in New York, New York are authorized by law to be closed (a “ Business Day ”) on or prior to the Expiration Date with respect to such portion of this Warrant, by surrender of this Warrant to the Company at its office maintained pursuant to Section 13.2(a) hereof, accompanied by an exercise notice (the “ Exercise Notice ”) in substantially the form attached to this Warrant as Exhibit A (or a reasonable facsimile thereof) duly executed by the Holder, together with the payment of the Warrant Price. The Holder also shall have the right, at its election exercised in its sole discretion, when exercising the Warrant, in whole or in part, in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of the Exercise Price, elect instead to receive upon such exercise the " Net Number " of shares of Common Stock determined according to the following formula (a " Cashless Exercise "):

 

 

Net Number =

(A x B) - (A x C)

 

    B  

   

For purposes of the foregoing formula:

 

A = the total number of shares with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised.

 

B = the Closing Price, as defined in Paragraph (e) of Section 4, of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the Exercise Notice.

 

C = the Warrant Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time of such exercise.

 

Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Holder be entitled to exercise any portion of this Warrant in excess of that portion of this Warrant upon exercise of which the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and the Holder’s affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unexercised portion of the Warrant or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other of the Company’s securities subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitations contained herein) and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the portion of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (“Ownership Limitation”). Beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), and Regulations 13D - G thereunder, provided, further, however, that the limitations on exercised may be waived by the Holder upon, at the election of the Holder, not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, and the provisions of the exercise limitation shall continue to apply until such 61st day (or such later date, as determined by the Holder, as may be specified in such notice of waiver).

  3.2      When Exercise Effective. Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the Business Day on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered to the Company as provided in Section 3.1 hereof, and, at such time, the corporation, association, partnership, organization, business, individual, government or political subdivision thereof or a governmental agency (a “ Person ” or the “ Persons ”) in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon exercise as provided in Section 3.3 hereof shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record thereof.

 

3.3      Delivery of Certificates Upon Exercise. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted by the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective Registration Statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) this Warrant is being exercised via cashless exercise, and otherwise by physical delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Exercise Notice by the date that is three Business Days after the latest of (A) the delivery to the Company of the Exercise Notice, (B) surrender of this Warrant and (C) payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as set forth above (including by cashless exercise) (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder certificates evidencing the Warrant Shares subject to an Exercise Notice by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the closing price of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Exercise Notice), $10 per Business Day (increasing to $20 per Business Day on the fifth Business Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Business Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such certificates are delivered or the Holder rescinds such exercise.

 

3.4     Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit the Warrant Shares to the Holder via the DWAC system or a certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 3.3 by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

 

3.5     Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit the Warrant Shares to the Holder via the DWAC system or a certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date as provided in Section 3.3 above, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares that the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, reasonable evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a 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 upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

3.6     Partial Exercise. In case exercise is in part only, a new Warrant of like tenor, dated the date hereof and calling in the aggregate on the face thereof for the number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of Warrant Shares called for on the face of this Warrant minus the number of Warrant Shares designated by the Holder upon exercise as provided in Section 3.1 hereof (without giving effect to any adjustment thereof).

 

3.7     Company to Reaffirm Obligations. The Company will, at the time of each exercise of this Warrant and upon the written request of the Holder hereof, acknowledge in writing its continuing obligation to afford to the Holder all rights (including without limitation any rights to registration of the Warrant Shares issued upon exercise) to which the Holder shall continue to be entitled after exercise in accordance with the terms of this Warrant; provided, however, that if the Holder shall fail to make a request, the failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to afford the rights to such Holder.

 

4.              Warrant Adjustments .

 

The Warrant Price and the number of shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment with respect to events after the date hereof as follows:

 

(a)      Adjustment for Change in Capital Stock. Except as provided in Paragraph 4 (p) below, if the Company shall (i) declare a dividend on its outstanding Common Stock in shares of its capital stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock, or (iii) issue any shares of its capital stock by reclassification of its Common Stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation), then in each such case the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such action shall be adjusted so that if this Warrant is thereafter exercised, the Holder may receive the number and kind of shares which it would have owned immediately following such action if it had exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such action. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such an event shall occur. The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision or reclassification. If after an adjustment the Holder upon exercise of this Warrant may receive shares of two or more classes of capital stock of the Company, the Company's Board of Directors, in good faith, shall determine the allocation of the adjusted Warrant Price between the classes of capital stock. After such allocation, the Warrant Price of each class of capital stock shall thereafter be subject to adjustment on terms comparable to those applicable to Common Stock in this Section 4.

(b)      Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Price as a result of the calculations made in Paragraph 4 (a) above, this Warrant shall thereafter evidence the right to purchase, at the adjusted Warrant Price, that number of shares (calculated to the nearest one-hundredth) obtained by dividing (i) the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant prior to adjustment of the number of shares by Warrant Price in effect prior to adjustment of the Warrant Price by (ii) the Warrant Price in effect after such adjustment of the Warrant Price

 

(c)     Transactions Not Requiring Adjustments. No adjustment need be made for a transaction referred to in Paragraph (a) of this Section 4 if the Holder is permitted to participate in the transaction on a basis no less favorable than any other party and at a level, which would preserve the Holder’s percentage equity participation in the Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant.

 

(d)     Action to Permit Valid Issuance of Common Stock. Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment reducing the Warrant Price below the then par value, if any, of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company will take all corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue shares of such Common Stock at such adjusted Warrant Price.

 

(e)     Minimum Adjustment. No adjustment in the Warrant Price shall be required if such adjustment is less than $0.05; provided , however , that any adjustments, which by reason of this Paragraph 4 (e) are not required to be made, shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Section 4 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one-hundredth of a share, as the case may be. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall be entitled to make such reductions in the Warrant Price, in addition to those required by this Paragraph 4 (e), as it in its discretion shall determine to be advisable in order that any stock dividends, subdivision of shares, distribution of rights to purchase stock or securities, or distribution of securities convertible into or exchangeable for stock hereafter made by the Company to its stockholders shall not be taxable.

 

(f)     Referral of Adjustment. In any case in which this Section 4 shall require that an adjustment in the Warrant Price be made effective as of a record date for a specified event (the “Exercise Event”), if this Warrant shall have been exercised after such record date, the Company may elect to defer until the occurrence of the Exercise Event issuing to the Holder the shares, if any, issuable upon the Exercise Event over and above the shares, if any, issuable upon such exercise on the basis of the Warrant Price in effect prior to such adjustment; provided , however , that the Company shall deliver to the Holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing the Holder’ right to receive such additional shares upon the occurrence of the Exercise Event.

(g)     Number of Shares. Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Price as a result of the calculations made in Paragraph (a) of this Section 4, this Warrant shall thereafter evidence the right to purchase, at the adjusted Warrant Price, that number of shares (calculated to the nearest thousandth) obtained by dividing (i) the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant prior to adjustment of the number of shares by the Warrant Price in effect prior to adjustment of the Warrant Price by (ii) the Warrant Price in effect after such adjustment of the Warrant Price.

 

(h)     Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Warrant Price is adjusted, the Company shall promptly mail to the Holder a notice of the adjustment together with a certificate from the Company's Chief Financial Officer briefly stating (i) the facts requiring the adjustment, (ii) the adjusted Warrant Price and the manner of computing it, and (iii) the date on which such adjustment becomes effective. The certificate shall be prima facia evidence that the adjustment is correct, absent manifest error.

 

(i)     Reorganization of Company. If the Company is a party to a merger, consolidation or a transaction in which (i) the Company transfers or leases substantially all of its assets; (ii) the Company reclassifies or changes its outstanding Common Stock; or (iii) the Common Stock is exchanged for securities, cash or other assets; the Person who is the transferee or lessee of such assets or is obligated to deliver such securities, cash or other assets shall assume the terms of this Warrant. If the issuer of securities deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant is an affiliate of the surviving, transferee or lessee corporation, that issuer shall join in such assumption. The assumption agreement shall provide that the Holder may exercise this Warrant into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets which it would have owned immediately after the consolidation, merger, transfer, lease or exchange if it had exercised this Warrant immediately before the effective date of the transaction. The assumption agreement shall provide for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practical to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4 . The successor company shall mail to the Holder a notice briefly describing the assumption agreement. If this Paragraph applies, Paragraph 4 (a) above does not apply. Notwithstanding the forgoing, in the event of a reorganization of the Company, the Company shall have the right to purchase this Warrant equal to the difference between the exercise price, as adjusted, if any, and the equivalent value of share of Common Stock determined in the Reorganization by the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

(j)     Dissolution, Liquidation. In the event of the dissolution or total liquidation of the Company, then after the effective date thereof, this Warrant and all rights thereunder shall expire.

 

(k)     Notices. If (i) the Company takes any action that would require an adjustment in the Warrant Price pursuant to this Section 4 ; or (ii) there is a liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the Company shall mail to the Holder a notice stating the proposed record date for a distribution or effective date of a reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, lease, liquidation or dissolution. The Company shall mail the notice at least 15 days before such date. Failure to mail the notice or any defect in it shall not affect the validity of the transaction.

 

5.        Fractional Shares . If the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant is adjusted pursuant to Section 4 hereof, the Company shall nevertheless not be required to issue fractions of shares upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise, or to distribute certificates that evidence fractional shares. Instead the Company will issue cash in the amount equal to the fractional share times the Current Market Price calculated to the nearest penny.

6.      Right to Registration . The Holder has the right to require the Company to register the Warrant Shares under the Act in accordance with the terms of an agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) dated as of the date hereof between the Company and the Holders. The date that the first Registration Statement filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement is declared effective by the Commission is herein referred to as the “Effective Date.”

 

7.       Redemption .

 

(a)      Company’s Right to Redeem this Warrant. On or after the Effective Date, as long as there is an effective registration statement filed with the Commission registering the Warrants Shares, on not less than 30 days notice to the Holder, the Company may redeem this Warrant at a redemption price of $0.001 times the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant can then be exercised (the " Redemption Price "), provided that the reported Closing Price of the Common Stock equals or exceeds $2.00 per share for a period of 20 trading days ending one trading day prior to the date that the notice of redemption is sent. All unexercised Warrants must be redeemed if any Warrants are redeemed.

 

(b)     Method of Redemption. In case the Company shall desire to exercise its right to redeem the Warrants, it shall mail a notice of redemption to the Holder, first class, postage prepaid, not later than the 30th day before the date fixed for redemption, at its last address as shall appear in the records of the Company.

 

(c)     Notice of Redemption. The notice of redemption shall specify (i) the Redemption Price; (ii) the date fixed for redemption; (iii) the place where the Warrants shall be delivered and the Redemption Price paid; and (iv) that the right to exercise the Warrants shall terminate at 5:00 PM (New York time) on the date fixed for redemption. The date fixed for the redemption of the Warrants shall be the Redemption Date.

 

(d)     Delivery of Redemption Price and Expiration of the Warrants. From and after the Redemption Date, the Company shall, at the place specified in the notice of redemption, upon presentation and surrender to the Company by or on behalf of the Holder of its Warrants to be redeemed, deliver or cause to be delivered to or upon the written order of the Holder a sum in cash equal to the Redemption Price of of its Warrants to be redeemed. From and after the Redemption Date and upon the deposit or setting aside by the Company of a sum sufficient to redeem all of the Warrants called for redemption, the Warrants to be redeemed, shall expire and become void and all rights hereunder, except the right to receive payment of the Redemption Price, shall cease.

8.              No Dilution or Impairment .

 

8.1      Actions to Permit Issuance of Warrant Shares . The Company will not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation or through any consolidation, merger, reorganization, transfer of assets, 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 the Warrants, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all of the terms and in the taking of all actions necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (a) will not permit the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of the Warrants to exceed the amount payable therefor upon exercise, (b) will take all actions necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock on the exercise of the Warrants, and (c) will not take any action which results in any adjustment of the Warrant Price if the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable after the action upon the exercise of the Warrant would exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock then authorized by the Company's certificate of incorporation and available for the purpose of issuance upon exercise.

 

8.2      Acknowledgement of Company’s Obligations . The Company acknowledges that its obligation to issue shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is binding upon it and enforceable regardless of the dilution that such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other stockholders.

 

9.             Chief Financial Officer’s Report as to Adjustments . In the case of any adjustment or re-adjustment in the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants, the Company at its expense will promptly compute the adjustment or re-adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrants and cause its Chief Financial Officer to certify the computation (other than any computation of the fair value of property as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) and prepare a report setting forth the adjustment or re-adjustment and showing in reasonable detail the method of calculation thereof and the facts upon which the adjustment or re-adjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding or deemed to be outstanding and (b) the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the deemed issuance or sale and as adjusted and re-adjusted (if required by Section 4 hereof) on account thereof. The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each report to the Holder and will, upon the written request at any time of the Holder, furnish to the Holder a like report setting forth the Warrant Price at the time in effect and showing in reasonable detail how it was calculated. The Company will also keep copies of all reports at its office maintained pursuant to Section 13.2(a) hereof and will cause them to be available for inspection at the office during normal business hours upon reasonable notice by the Holder or any prospective purchaser of the Warrants designated by the Holder.

 

10.           Reservation of Shares . The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof and not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of stockholders of the Company, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of the Warrants, such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the exercise thereof, and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the exercise of the Warrants, in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the Holder, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including without limitation, using its best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval necessary to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company’s Common Stock. All shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be duly authorized and, when issued upon exercise, shall be validly issued and, in the case of shares, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all preemptive or similar rights, taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof, and that upon issuance such shares shall be listed on each securities exchange, if any, on which the other shares of outstanding Common Stock of the Company are then listed.

11.        Listing . The Company shall at all times comply in all respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the by-laws or rules of each national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed and shall list the shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants on such national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system.

 

12.         Investment Representations: Restrictions on Transfer .

 

12.1     Investment Representations. The Holder acknowledge that the Warrants and the Warrant Shares have not been and, except as otherwise provided herein, will not be registered under the Act or qualified under applicable state securities laws and that the transferability thereof is restricted by the registration provisions of the Act as well as such state laws. The Holder represents that it is acquiring this Warrant and will acquire the Warrant Shares for its own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view to resale or other distribution thereof, nor with the intention of selling, transferring or otherwise disposing of all or any part of such securities for any particular event or circumstance, except selling, transferring or disposing of them upon full compliance with all applicable provisions of the Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Rules and Regulations promulgated by the Commission thereunder, and any applicable state securities laws. The Holder further understands and agrees that (i) neither the Warrants nor the Warrant Shares may be sold or otherwise transferred unless they are subsequently registered under the Act and qualified under any applicable state securities laws or, in the opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, an exemption from such registration and qualification is available; (ii) any routine sales of the Company's securities made in reliance upon Rule 144 promulgated by the Commission under the Act, can be effected only pursuant to the terms and conditions of that Rule, including applicable holding periods and timely filing requirements with the Commission for the Company; and (iii) except as otherwise set forth herein, the Company is under no obligation to register the Warrants or the Warrant Shares on its behalf or to assist it in complying with any exemption from registration under the Act. The Holder agrees that each certificate representing any Warrant Shares for which the Warrants may be exercised will bear on its face a legend in substantially the following form:

 

These securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or qualified under any state securities laws. They may not be sold, hypothecated or otherwise transferred in the absence of an effective registration statement under that Act or qualification under applicable state securities laws without an opinion counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company that such registration and qualification are not required.

12.2     Notice of Proposed Transfer; Opinion of Counsel. Prior to any transfer of any securities that are not registered under an effective registration statement under the Act (“Restricted Securities”), the Holder will give written notice to the Company of the Holder's intention to affect a transfer and to comply in all other respects with this Section 12.2. Each notice (a) shall describe the manner and circumstances of the proposed transfer, and (b) shall designate counsel for the Holder giving the notice (who may be in-house counsel for the Holder). The Holder giving notice will submit a copy thereof to the counsel designated in the notice. The following provisions shall then apply:

 

(i) If in the opinion of counsel for the Holder reasonably satisfactory to the Company the proposed transfer (i.e. private sale of Restricted Securities) may be effected without registration of Restricted Securities under the Act (which opinion shall state the bases for the legal conclusions reached therein), the Holder shall thereupon be entitled to transfer the Restricted Securities in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered by the Holder to the Company. Each certificate representing the Restricted Securities issued upon or in connection with any transfer shall bear the restrictive legends required by Section 12.1 hereof.

 

(ii) If the opinion called for in (i) above is not delivered, the Holder shall not be entitled to transfer the Restricted Securities until either (x) receipt by the Company of a further notice from such Holder pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.2 and fulfillment of the provisions of clause (i) above, or (y) such Restricted Securities have been effectively registered under the Act.

 

12.3      Termination of Restrictions. The restrictions imposed by this Section 1 2 upon the transferability of Restricted Securities shall cease and terminate as to any particular Restricted Securities: (a) which Restricted Securities shall have been effectively registered under the Act, or (b) when, in the opinions of both counsel for the holder thereof and counsel for the Company, which opinion shall not be unreasonably withheld, such restrictions are no longer required in order to insure compliance with the Act or Section 12 hereof. Whenever such restrictions shall cease and terminate as to any Restricted Securities, the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive from the Company, without expense (other than applicable transfer taxes, if any), new securities of like tenor not bearing the applicable legends required by Section 12.1 hereof.

 

13.            Ownership, Transfer and Substitution of Warrant .

Re:

Subscription to Purchase Units of Digital Power Corporation

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

This Subscription Agreement (this “Subscription Agreement”) is being delivered to the purchaser identified on the signature page to this Agreement (the “Subscriber”) in connection with its investment in the securities of Digital Power Corporation, a California corporation (the “Company”). The Company is conducting a private placement (the “Offering”) of a minimum of four Units and a maximum of 21 Units ($1,096,000) at a purchase price of $52,000 per Unit (the “Purchase Price”) with each Unit consisting of (i) 26,666 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred Stock”), which each share will be convertible into four shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock,”) and (ii) five year warrants (“Warrants”) providing the holder thereof the right to acquire in the aggregate 86,667 shares of Common Stock (collectively, the “Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Securities” shall refer to the Units, Series C Preferred Stock, and the Warrants and the Common Stock to be issued upon the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock and the exercise of the Warrant (“Underlying Shares”).

 

This will acknowledge that the Subscriber hereby agrees to irrevocably purchase from the Company ______ unit(s) (the "Units") set forth in the Subscription Signature Section below in accordance with the terms of this Subscription Agreement and Investment Letter (the “Subscription Agreement,” and pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Private Placement Memorandum dated May 1, 2017, including Appendixes attached thereto (the “Memorandum”).

 

1.

Terms of the Offering ,

 

The Offering is being made on a “best efforts, all or none” basis with respect to the first four Units, and, thereafter, on a “best efforts only” basis until the remaining 16 Units are sold, the Company terminates the Offering, which it can do in its complete discretion at any time, or the Offering Period, as hereinafter defined, expires, which ever occurs first (the “Termination Date”). Unless at least four Units (the “Minimum) are sold on or before May 31, 2017, or June 9, 2017 if extended by the Company and the Placement Agent (the "Offering Period") and paid for with collected funds received in escrow as noted in the next succeeding paragraph within two Business Days thereafter, the Offering will terminate and all funds collected from subscribers will be promptly returned to them without interest thereon or deduction therefrom. A Business Day means any day except Saturday, Sunday and any day that shall be a federal legal holiday or a day on which banking institutions in the State of New York are authorized or required by law or other governmental action to close. Persons affiliated and/or otherwise related to the Company and the Placement Agent may purchase Units in the Offering but the Units purchased by them will not be included in the number of Units needed to satisfy the Minimum.

 

 
 

 

 

Because the Minimum of four Units must be sold in order to make the Offering effective, all funds received will be held in escrow with JP Morgan Chase Bank (the “Escrow Agent”) pursuant to an escrow agreement among the Company, the Placement Agent and the Escrow Agent, a copy of which is appended hereto as Exhibit II. No funds will be remitted to the Company until at least four Units have been sold and paid for. Thereafter, funds will continue to be held in escrow and released to the Company at each subsequent closing, which shall be when an additional 17 Units have been sold and paid for except for the last closing, which shall occur on the earlier of May 31, 2017, which date may be extended to June 9, 2017, by agreement between the Company and the Placement Agent, or when all 21 Units on an accumulative basis have been sold and paid for (each a “Closing” and, collectively, the “Closings”) against delivery of the appropriate number of subscribed Units. Each Closing of the purchase and sale of the Units following acceptance by the Company of subscriptions, as evidenced by the Company's execution of the applicable Subscription Agreements, shall take place at the Placement Agent’s offices, or such other place as the Placement Agent and the Company shall determine, on such date as the Placement Agent and the Company shall determine. The date on which a Closing is consummated is the “Closing Date.”

 

The Offering is being made only to “accredited investors” as defined herein. It is being conducted pursuant to the exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act set forth in Section 4(a)(2) thereof and applicable Rules and Regulations promulgated thereunder, including Rule 506 (b) of Regulation D. Section 4(a)(2) requires, among other things, that each purchaser acquire the Units, and the Series C Preferred Stock and the Warrants which is a part thereof, and the Underlying Shares (collectively, the “Underlying Securities”) with investment intent and not with a view to distribution. The Units being offered hereby and the Underlying Securities will be "restricted securities" under the Securities Act and may not be resold publicly except in compliance with Rule 144 promulgated thereunder or unless subsequently registered.

 

Although the Common Stock is listed on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “DPW,” there is no public market for the Units, the Series C Preferred Stock or the Warrants and it is not anticipated that a public trading market for them will ever develop.

 

As set forth above, the Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) covering the Underlying Shares, but cannot assure that such a filing will be made or, if it is, that it will be declared effective by the Commission. In the event, however, that the registration statement is declared effective, the Company cannot assure that the Underlying Shares will be readily tradable.

 

ACCORDINGLY, THE UNDERSIGNED UNDERSTANDS AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, EVEN AFTER THE TERMINATION OF THE RESALE RESTRICTION PERIODS ON THE UNITS, THE UNDERLYING SECURITIES AND THE UNDERLYING SHARES, AND/OR THE UNDERLYING SHARES ARE REGISTERED, SHE/HE MAY BE UNABLE TO RESELL THESE SECURITIES FOR A SIGNIFICANT PERIOD OF TIME, IF EVER.

 

Execution of this Subscription Agreement shall constitute an offer by the Undersigned to purchase the number of Units set forth in the Subscription Signature Section below on the terms specified herein. If the Undersigned's offer is accepted, the Company will execute a copy of the Signature Section and return it to the Undersigned.

The Placement Agent .

 

The Placement Agent, a member firm of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) , is acting as the exclusive placement agent for the Company in placing this Offering. If all of the Minimum and Maximum Units are sold, the Company will receive gross proceeds of $208,000 and $1,092,000, respectively less the expenses of this Offering. Management estimates that these expenses, including the fee and expense allowance payable to the Placement Agent described below, will be approximately $52,000 and $181,000 in the event the Minimum and Maximum Units are sold, respectively.

 

The Placement Agent will receive a fee equal to 10% and a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 3% of the aggregate gross purchase price of the Units sold. The Company will also grant to the Placement Agent, for nominal consideration, a warrant, exercisable over a three year period commencing on the final Closing Date of the Offering, to purchase such number of Units as shall equal 10% of the number of Units sold in the Offering at an exercise price equal to 120% of the Unit offering price, which is $62,400.

 

The Company has agreed with the Placement Agent, that as long as any shares of C Preferred Stock are outstanding, but not later than five years from the Close, the Placement Agent shall have a right to have a representative approved by the Company attend and observe the Company’s board meetings in a non-voting capacity .

 

The undersigned understands that, except as may be required by applicable regulations of FINRA, the Placement Agent has not independently verified the information provided to her/him with respect to the Company. Accordingly, there is no representation by the Placement Agent as to the completeness or accuracy of such information.

(iii)     A corporation or other organization of which the purchaser representative and any persons related to her/him as specified in Paragraph (h)(1)(i) or (h)(1)(ii) of Rule 501, collectively are the beneficial owners of more than 50 percent of the equity securities (excluding directors' qualifying shares) or equity interests;

 

(b)     she/he has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that she/he is capable of evaluating, alone, or together with other purchaser representatives of the purchaser or together with the purchaser, the merits and risks of the prospective investment;

 

(c)     she/he is acknowledged by the purchaser in writing, during the course of the transaction, to be her/his purchaser representative in connection with evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment; and

 

(d)     she/he discloses to the purchaser in writing prior to the acknowledgment specified in Paragraph (h)(3) of Rule 501, any material relationship between herself/himself or her/his affiliates and the Company or its affiliates that then exists, that is mutually understood to be contemplated or that has existed at any time during the previous two years and any compensation received or to be received as a result of such relationship.

 

If the Undersigned is using a purchaser representative, the purchaser representative must complete, execute and return a Purchaser Representative’s Questionnaire to the Company. A form of Purchaser Representative’s Questionnaire is attached hereto as Appendix E.

The undersigned (the “Undersigned” or “Subscriber”) hereby purchases _________ Units from Digital Power Corporation (the “Company”) pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement dated May 1, 2017 (the “Subscription Agreement”) of which this Subscription Signature Section is a part. All terms in this Subscription Signature Section have the meanings defined elsewhere in this Subscription Agreement.

 

Subscriber Representations .

 

The Subscriber hereby acknowledges, represents and warrants to, and agrees with the Company as follows:

 

(a)         The Subscriber is acquiring the Units and Underlying Securities for the Subscriber’s own account as principal for investment and not with a view to resale, distribution or fractionalization in whole or in part, and has no current agreement, understanding or arrangement to subdivide, sell, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Units and/or Underlying Securities and understands that there is no public market for the Units, Series C Preferred Stock or Warrants and none is expected to develop in the foreseeable future, if ever. She/he does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any Person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such Person or to any third Person, with respect to the Units and/or Underlying Securities for which she/he is subscribing.

 

(b)         The Units and Underlying Securities that the Subscriber is purchasing and the Underlying Shares into which the Series C Preferred Stock may be converted and for which the Warrants may be exercised have not been registered under the Securities Act or qualified under applicable state securities laws and the registration provisions of the Securities Act as well as the qualification provisions of such state laws thereof restrict their transferability. Based upon the representations and agreements being made by her/him herein, the Subscriber acknowledges that the offering and sale of the Units are intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) thereof and applicable Rules and Regulations adopted thereunder, and that:

 

1.     the Undersigned’s Units and Underlying Securities cannot be sold, pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed of unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or qualified under applicable state securities laws or, in the reasonable opinion of the Company’s counsel, an exemption from such registration and/or qualification is available;

 

2.     sales or transfers of the Undersigned’s Units and Underlying Securities are further restricted by the provisions of state securities laws;

 

3.     the Company is under no obligation to assist the Undersigned in complying with any exemption from registration under the Securities Act or qualification under any state securities law, or, except as may be provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, to register the Units or Underlying Securities on the Undersigned’s behalf;

 

 
 

 

 

4.     the certificates or other documentation representing the Undersigned’s Series C Preferred Stock, Warrants and Underlying Shares will bear, in substance, the following legend:

 

These securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933. They may not be sold or transferred in the absence of an effective Registration Statement under that Act without an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that such Registration is not required. ;

 

5.     the Company will place stop-transfer instructions on its books and with the transfer agent of its securities with respect to the Units and Underlying Securities registered in the name of the Undersigned or beneficially owned by her/him.

 

The Undersigned further acknowledges that the basis for these exemptions may not be available if, notwithstanding such representations, she/he only intends to hold these securities for a fixed or determinable period in the future, or until the market price rises or falls and she/he hereby represents and warrants that she/he does not have any such intention.

 

(c)         The Subscriber: (A) by herself/himself or together with her/his Purchaser Representative, if any, has such knowledge and experience in financial, business and tax matters that she/he is capable of evaluating the merits of the prospective purchase of the Units and making an investment decision with respect to the Company; (B) has had substantial experience in previous private and public purchases of speculative securities and is not relying on the Company, the Placement Agent, or any of their respective affiliates or attorneys with respect to economic, tax or other considerations involved in this investment; and (C) is able to bear the economic risk of this investment ( i . e ., she/he can afford a complete loss of her/his investment). In this regard, her/his overall commitment to investments, which are not readily marketable, is not disproportionate to her/his net worth, and her/his purchase of the Units will not cause such overall commitment to become excessive.

 

(d)         The Subscriber understands and acknowledges that an investment in the Company is speculative and subject to many risks. In this regard, the Company cannot assure her/him that all of the Units will be sold. Accordingly, the Company’s operations and financial condition will be adversely affected to the extent that less than all of the Units are sold, especially because it currently has no commitment for any financing.

 

(e)         ______________ (insert name of Purchaser Representative: if none, leave blank) has acted as the Undersigned’s Purchaser Representative for purposes of the private placement exemption under the Securities Act. If the Undersigned has appointed a Purchaser Representative (which term is used herein with the same meaning as given in Rule 501(h) of Regulation D), she/he has been advised by her/his Purchaser Representative as to the merits and risks of an investment in the Company in general and the suitability of the Units as an investment for the Undersigned in particular, and is aware that the Purchaser Representative may be receiving compensation from the Company in connection with the services being performed by such Purchaser Representative for the Undersigned relating to her/his purchase of the Units.

 

(f)         The Subscriber has reviewed carefully the definition of “accredited investor” as set forth below, and the particular subparagraph or subparagraphs by which the Undersigned qualifies as such is (are) checked by her/him below.

 

(g)         The Subscriber has carefully reviewed the Private Placement Memorandum dated May 1, 2017 including the Risk Factors section set forth therein and in the SEC Documents

THE UNDERSIGNED UNDERSTANDS THAT, BECAUSE OF THE SIGNIFICANT RISK FACTORS SET FORTH IN THE PRIVATE PLACEMENT MEMORANDUM AND IN THE SEC DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE RISK FACTORS SET FORTH IN THE DESCRIPTION OF RISK FACTORS DISCLOSED IN THE PRIVATE PLACEMENT MEMORANDUM AND THE SEC DOCUMENTS, IF THE OFFERING IS CONSUMMATED, SHE/HE COULD LOSE HER/HIS ENTIRE INVESTMENT.

(c)     Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “ Indemnified Party ”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought (the “ Indemnifying Party ”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided , however , that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have proximately and materially adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

 

An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party); provided , however , that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all Indemnified Parties. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.

All fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten trading days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party (regardless of whether it is ultimately determined that an Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder; provided , however , that the Indemnifying Party may require such Indemnified Party to undertake to reimburse all such fees and expenses to the extent it is finally judicially determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder).

 

(d)     Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under Section 5(a) or 5(b) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5(c) , any reasonable attorneys’ or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in accordance with its terms.

 

The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(d) , no Holder shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

 

The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties.

 

6.             Miscellaneous

 

(a)     Remedies. In the event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder, of any of their obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the Company, as the case may be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company and each Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

(f)     Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties and shall inure to the benefit of each Holder.

Registration Statement on Form S-3

 

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

As counsel to Digital Power Corporation , a California corporation (the “Company”), we have been requested to render our opinion to you in connection with the resale by the individuals or entities listed on Schedule A attached hereto (the “Selling Stockholders”), of an aggregate of [amount] shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock.

 

A Registration Statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”), with respect to the resale of the Shares was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on [●]. Enclosed is the Prospectus dated [●]. We understand that the Shares are to be offered and sold in the manner described in the Prospectus.

 

Based upon the foregoing, upon request by the Selling Stockholders at any time while the registration statement remains effective, it is our opinion that the Shares have been registered for resale under the Act and new certificates evidencing the Shares upon their transfer or re-registration by the Selling Stockholders may be issued without restrictive legend. We will advise you if the registration statement is not available or effective at any point in the future.

 

 

Very truly yours,
