Business Description

  

The global coronavirus outbreak has tested people, industries, governments and supply chains unlike any crisis since World War II. Manufacturers and suppliers of personal protective equipment (PPE) have been working overtime to increase production in response to unprecedented international demand. Like many companies Hawkeye Systems Inc. has been impacted by Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 and has had to adapt and overcome several obstacles which previously did not exist. The Company’s initial focus was photography, videography, and AR focused, however in an environment that has evolved out of the pandemic, we determined that future technology or developing technology does not seem like a place to place the fortune of our shareholders. Consequently, we evolved to provide products that the market needs now while identifying opportunities which make sense operating in this environment. Once we shifted from developing technologies only to trying to service more urgent issues in the current environment, we began to locate, market and sell personal protection equipment (“PPE”) including sanitizer, masks and gloves. As we worked in this market, we have refined and further narrowed our strategy. Clearly several aspects of our “normal” business environment have become greatly disrupted. Government policy has become opaque and not supportive of small business, supply chains have become greatly disrupted and the US dependency on foreign countries has, to various degrees, become unreliable, expensive and unpredictable from the perspective of quality, availability and quantity. The management of Hawkeye made a difficult but defining moment in the last quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020. We decided that as a company we can only defend and support a strategy that can be executed in this environment with our available resources that supports the requirements and needs of our customers and of customers in the current environment. In prioritizing the list of important issues here is the short list of what will differentiate and ensure our success

 

1. Availability of product without significant price competition (dependable supply).

 

2. Quality and certification under all required standards.

 

3. Sales Strategy not dependent on government action or assistance.

 

4. Growth strategy that depends on sales volume and growth funding technological innovation and not innovation at the expense of volume that can sustain the company.

 

5. Technological innovation should be narrow in focus and support the mission of the company.

Table of Contents

 

The company has made great strides and progress to this end. Here is a list of the big achievements over the last two quarters:

  

1. Developed and executed on a relationship with a dependable South Korean manufacturer to provide excellent sanitizer at a reasonable price in a sustainable way, which has subsequently been listed on Amazon.com; we continue to work with Amazon and other partners to increase traction in this channel.

 

2. Developed and executed a strategy with DemeTECH to provide US made, NIOSH approved, N95’s which are competitive with foreign imports but have the advantage of 100% US made, US sourced in a scalable, repeatable way, regardless of government decisions regarding PPE (excise tax, foreign raw materials, PPE import blocks , etc.)

 

3. Developed a project to build and control 5.4 M boxes of nitrile gloves per year at a price which is and will be competitive even post pandemic. We are currently trying to fund this project and make sure we have reliable nitrile rubber supply as this is the rate limiting step in providing gloves globally right now.

 

Company Goals and Objectives

 

Hawkeye’s mission for the next fiscal year and beyond is to, through acquisition and organic growth, become one of the largest US providers of PPE in the categories we compete in. We intend to do this through organic sales, acquisition and partnership. We have not abandoned our technology origins and in fact with financial strength we will reveal and roll out innovations closely aligned with the categories we are competing in.

 

US and World Markets for PPE

 

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and created significant volatility and disruption of global financial markets. In response, many countries implemented business closures and restrictions, stay-at-home and social distancing ordinances and similar measures to combat the pandemic, which significantly impacted global business and dramatically reduced demand for certain medical products in the second quarter of 2020. Demand increased in the third quarter resulting in growth over the prior year driven by sales of personal protective equipment (PPE) and COVID-19 related products.

 

Manufacturers are engaged in a historic effort to ramp up production of the vital equipment needed to respond to the coronavirus outbreak. While respirators like N95 masks have received the greatest attention from the public and media, PPE needs also include protective garments, eye and face protection, gloves, and other components of the specialized ensembles health care professionals use to protect themselves.

 

Initially, there was a significant shortage of PPE products. Broadly speaking, no one knew a pandemic on this scale was coming. It has literally been a century since the last truly global health crisis. In addition, over the past few decades, both for budgetary and efficiency reasons, healthcare organizations — just like most other sectors of the economy — adopted a “just in time” approach to ordering supplies. That philosophy worked until this crisis hit. There are policy solutions that can help to supply equipment during a crisis, some of which have been partially successful at this time, and others that were not in place. These range from stockpiling equipment to subsidizing inventory.

  

Sanitizer is expected to have compound annual growth rate exceeding 23.1% through 2027.1 Mask growth is expected to have a 11.5% compound annual growth rate over the period of from 2020 to 2025.2 Finally, the global nitrile gloves market size is anticipated to reach USD 8.98 billion by 2027.3 That market is projected to register a compound annual growth rate of 14.1% over the forecast period.

We are focused on sourcing sustainable supply that will be cost effective and competitive assuming that the pandemic becomes less important and reduces in severity. There is a tremendous backlog of supplies which need to be re-stockpiled and we intend to compete in the long-term market not just work in the near term during the pandemic.

  

The United States has issued significant pandemic relief bills which covers PPE and other essential materials during the pandemic.  This funding is greatly needed and will help increase sales and move forward sale cycles which were stopped due to lack of funding.  Many of the potential buyers of our products exhausted their budget for PPE mid-year or even earlier in 2020 so this relief greatly improves the ability for customers to stop rationing critical supplies and provide their medical and front line workers the appropriate amount and level of protection to these important essential workers.

  

Research and Development

 

The products which we are looking at for potential R&D and future funding are further out than the next few quarters so our limited resources will be focused on succeeding in the strategy to address the market needs as we have defined them.

 

Intellectual Property

 

The company currently does not have IP and this is not part of our current strategy.

 

Regulation

 

Our current business involves the distribution, importation and sale of PPE and other medical devices, and in this regard we are subject to extensive local, state, federal and foreign governmental laws and regulations applicable to the distribution and sale of medical devices. Additionally, government and private insurance programs fund a large portion of the total cost of medical care, and there has been an emphasis on efforts to control medical costs, including laws and regulations lowering reimbursement rates for medical devices. Also, many of these laws and regulations are subject to change and may impact our financial performance. For example, certain laws and regulations restricting medical PPE products in the United States have been temporarily modified or waived in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, our business is generally subject to numerous other laws and regulations that could impact our financial performance, including securities, antitrust, anti-bribery and anti-kickback, customer interaction transparency, data privacy, data security, price gouging and other laws and regulations, and some of the related rules have been temporarily modified in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Failure to comply with law or regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

Hawkeye’s Position in the Industry and Competitiveness

 

We compete with numerous companies in the PPE market. Many organizations are well established with more financial and human resources than we provide. This market is highly fragmented, and participants frequently focus on a specific technology area.

 

The top nine companies providing PPE products include the following:

 

Ansell

 

Ansell manufactures and sells high-performance and high-quality protection solutions, designed for hand, foot, and body protection for different industries such as automotive, chemical, food, services, machinery and equipment, military, mining, and construction.

3M offers a wide range of products that are used to enhance personal protection of people, facilities, and systems. Products offered by the segment include PPE, traffic safety, civil security solutions, and commercial solutions. 3M offers a strong line of PPE like reusable and disposable respirators, head and face protection equipment, protective eyewear, hearing protection equipment, and reflective materials used in footwear, clothing, and other accessories for enhancing visibility in low-light conditions.

 

MSA Safety

 

MSA Safety has divided its products into two categories: non-core products and core products. Non-core products include respirators, thermal imaging cameras, eye and face protection equipment, and gas masks. These products complement the core offerings. The company’s core products include fall protection equipment, fire and rescue helmet, head protection equipment, portable gas detection instruments, breathing apparatus products, and fixed gas and flame detection instruments.

 

DuPont

 

DuPont is a provider of PPE including body armor, cut protection, vehicle armor, flame-resistant clothing, and chemical protective garments and accessories. DuPont has several brands including, Kevlar brand, Nomex brand, ProShield garments, Tychem garments, Tyvek protective apparel, Thermo-man demonstration unit, Protera fabric, ProShield garments, and Nomex fabric for military, firefighters, and police.

 

Lindström Group

 

Lindström Group offers a wide range of PPE to reduce accidents in hazardous environments. Its high-quality PPE portfolio includes protective footwear, respiration protection, head protection equipment, eye and face protection equipment, hearing protection equipment, protective clothing, head and arm protection equipment, and fall arrest systems.

 

Alpha ProTech

 

Alpha ProTech has expertise in manufacturing high-quality protective clothing, infection control products, and a line of construction weatherization building products for the housing market. It sells its products under its brand name as well as private labels. Its protective apparel product category provides a complete range of head-to-toe protective clothing products such as shoe covers, bouffant caps, frocks and lab coats, coveralls, and gowns. The infection control product line offers face masks and eye shields.

 

Avon Rubber

 

Avon operates in two core markets: protection and defense and dairy. The company's protection systems have expertise in chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear defense for the US homeland security, military, and fire and industrial market. The respiratory products are directly sold to the military, and the primary customers are the US department of defense including army, marines, air force, navy, and coast guard. The company's offerings in the PPE market include respirators, gas masks, and spares and accessories.

 

Johnson Safety Products

 

JSP is an independent manufacturer of industrial head protection and above-the-neck PPE. The company has R&D team and testing bases in Oxford, UK. The product portfolio includes eye and face protection equipment, head protection equipment, hearing protection equipment, respiratory protection equipment, body PPE, fall protection equipment, and traffic equipment.

 

It is our hypothesis that due to entanglements with the US government and federal procurement processes the typical providers including 3m and Honeywell will be somewhat hamstrung in their ability to grow to meet the demands of these growing marketplaces until they meet the demands of the federal government which we don’t expect to be in the near future. Other US providers such as Prestige Ameritech are impacted by their access to capital and their current inability to scale to the market demands.

Prior Investment in Radiant Images, Inc.

 

On September 19, 2019, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Radiant Images, Inc., a California corporation (“Radiant”), as well as Radiant’s shareholder Gianna Wolfe (“Wolfe”) and key employee, Michael Mansouri (“Mansouri”), pursuant to which the Company would acquire 100% of the shares of common stock (the “Shares”) of Radiant from Wolfe, resulting in acquisition of Radiant.

 

In April 2020, the Company received notice from Radiant Images of their intent to terminate the acquisition agreement. Although the Company believes that the termination is not legally valid, the Company has ceased further discussions with respect to the acquisition and is pursuing litigation for repayment of amounts due by Radiant. The Company’s investment in Radiant was structured as a revolving note has been classified as a Note Receivable from Radiant due with accrued but unpaid interest. Pursuant to the terms of the revolving note, Radiant is required to repay the money already invested to Hawkeye with interest. The note receivable was issued on April 26, 2019, is due upon demand of the Company at any time commencing April 26, 2020. The interest rate on the note is 12% and accrues daily on the outstanding balance. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, total contributions of $385,000 were made to Radiant, bringing the balance of the note receivable to $1,305,800 at June 30, 2020 (not including interest). At June 30, 2020 interest income of $154,042 had been accrued on the note. Under accounting treatment, this note and interest are impaired on our balance sheet while we undertake litigation to resolve this dispute. Nevertheless the Company intends to vigorously pursue this matter and litigation and believes that this amount is fully collectible from Radiant and/or its principals.

 

Proposed Acquisition of DemeTECH Corporation

 

As part of our PPE operations, the Company has developed an exclusive worldwide distribution relationship with DemeTECH Corporation for supply of masks which are produced in the United States. In addition to PPE production, DemeTech Corporation is a world-renowned leader in surgical sutures, mesh and bone wax.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

The following discussion relates to the historical operations and financial statements of Hawkeye Systems, Inc. for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report. The Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Any statements that are not statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. When used, the words “believe,” “plan,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “target,” “estimate,” “expect,” and the like, and/or future-tense or conditional constructions (“will,” “may,” “could,” “should,” etc.), or similar expressions, identify certain of these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements in this Annual Report. Our actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences in results and outcomes include, without limitation, those specifically addressed under the heading "Risks Factors" in our various filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this Annual Report.

 

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

We have incurred recurring losses to date. Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.

 

We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long-term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities.

 

Results of Operations

 

Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019

 

We have had no operating revenues in our fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. Our activities have been financed by the proceeds of share subscriptions and loans. During our fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, we raised approximately $775,000 from private offerings of our common stock and raised an additional $400,000 during the period in connection with two promissory notes issued to accredited investors.

 

Total operating expenses in the year ended June 30, 2019 were $1,356,340 which is also the Company’s operating loss. The operating loss for this period is a result of legal and professional fees required to form the Company, for business development and regulatory filing expenses and fees. Our loss also reflect an other expense of $510,568 in interest with is based on the value of securities issued in lieu of interest payments.

 

Net loss for the year ended June 30, 2019 was $1,866,998.

Table of Contents

 

Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2020

  

We had operating revenues of $3,020,672 in our fiscal year ended June 30, 2020. Cost of sales was $1,992,809 resulting in gross profit of $1,027,863, or 34%. These revenues are from the sale of PPE products. During our fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, we raised approximately $512,500 from private offerings of our common stock and an additional $221,000 from exercise of warrants. We raised additional funds of $277,000 from a related party, paid directly for the purchase of PPE, which is included in common stock payable, as of June 30, 2020. We raised an additional $383,500 from convertible notes.

   

Total operating expenses in the year ended June 30, 2020 were $2,217,981 compared to $1,356,340 for the same period in 2019. The increase in operating expenses is primarily a result of increased compensation, professional fees and a result of write down of inventory.  The Company’s net loss was $2,600,468 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 compared to $1,866,998 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.   The net loss for this period is a result of general and administrative costs, professional fees, management compensation and significant cost of sales.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our cash balance at June 30, 2020 was $911,747 compared to $18,372 at June 30, 2019. We do not believe these cash reserves are sufficient to cover our expenses for our operations for fiscal year ending June 30, 2021.  We will require additional funding for our PPE purchases and ongoing operations. While we have a loan payable from Radiant Systems of $1,305,800 and interest due from Radiant of $154,042, those amounts are reflected impaired on our balance sheet as a result of the litigation with Radiant. Nevertheless, we intend to vigorously pursue that litigation and expect to fully recover those amounts.

 

In addition, we intend to raise funds through the sale of equity and the exercise of warrants issued in private placements. Although to date we have had some warrant exercises for cash, there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise money through this offering or through the exercise of warrants. If we cannot raise any additional financing prior to the expiration of the first quarter of 2021, we believe we will be able to obtain loans from management in the future, if necessary, but have no agreement in writing.

 

We are an emerging growth company and although we have begun to generate revenue from our PPE transactions, we have limited revenue to date. Under a limited operations scenario to maintain our corporate existence, we believe we will require additional funds over the next 12 months to complete our regulatory reporting and filings.  However, we will require maximum participation through private placements, warrant exercises or alternative financings to implement our complete business plan.

 

There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations. Even if additional financing is available, it may not be available on terms we find favorable. Failure to secure the needed additional financing will have an adverse effect on our ability to remain in business.

 

Plan of Operation and Funding

 

We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through equity offerings, warrant exercises, and related party advances in the near term. We have no guarantees or firm commitments that the related party advances will continue in the near term. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase with the growth of our business and sales of PPE.

 

Existing working capital, further advances, together with anticipated capital raises and anticipated cash flow are expected to be adequate to fund our operations over the next twelve months. We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. Generally, we have financed operations to date through proceeds from the sale of our common stock, warrant exercises and convertible loans.

 

Management anticipates additional increases in operating expenses relating to: (i) funding PPE purchases and sales; (ii) developmental expenses; and (iii) marketing expenses. We intend to finance these expenses with issuances of securities and through the exercise of outstanding warrants.

 

13

Table of Contents

 

Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations.

 

Material Commitments

 

As of the date of this Current Report, we do not have any material commitments.

 

Purchase of Significant Equipment

 

We do not intend to purchase any significant equipment during the next twelve months.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of the date of this Current Report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

 

Going Concern

  

As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $4,509,841 at June 30, 2020 and net loss from operations of $1,190,118.

 

The Company does not yet have a history of financial stability. Historically, the principal source of liquidity has been the issuance of equity securities and related party advances. In addition, the Company is in the development stage and has generated limited revenues since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The ability of the Company to continue operations is dependent on the success of Management’s plans, which include the sale of significant PPE products, raising of capital through the issuance of equity securities, until such time that funds provided by operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements.

 

The Company will require additional funding to finance the growth of its current and expected future operations as well as to achieve its strategic objectives. The Company believes its current available cash may be insufficient to meet its cash needs for the near future. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or terms acceptable to the Company, if at all.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the shareholders and the board of directors of Hawkeye Systems, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hawkeye Systems, Inc. (the "Company") as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, the related statement of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

 

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company’s significant operating losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

HAWKEYE SYSTEMS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Years Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

 

Note 1 - Organization

 

Hawkeye Systems, Inc. (“the Company”), a Nevada corporation incorporated on May 15, 2018, is a technology holding company with a focus on pandemic management products and services. The Company is committed to leveraging its extensive resources in support of its ongoing mission to help our government and medical infrastructure to keep civilians safe. Starting 2020, the Company began sourcing and distributing PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) and other pandemic management supplies to enterprise level customers and government agencies. The Company also looks to license & acquire technology that improves life and works with partners to develop cutting edge, “smart” products for a variety of markets.

 

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of presentation

The accompanying financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

 

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include useful lives of property and equipment, fair value assumptions used for stock-based compensation, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

 

Cash

The Company considers cash in banks and other deposits with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash and cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2020 and 2019.

 

Financial instruments

For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, note and interest receivable, convertible note payable, and notes payable, related party, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short maturities.

 

Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments for services or goods. Accounts with known financial issues are first reviewed and specific estimates are recorded. The remaining accounts receivable balances are then grouped in categories by the number of days the balance is past due, and the estimated loss is calculated as a percentage of the total category based upon past history. Account balances are charged against the allowance when it is probable that the receivable will not be recovered. The Company had no allowance for doubtful accounts at June 30, 2020 or 2019.

Table of Contents

  

Inventory

Inventories, consisting of finished goods and goods in transit, are primarily accounted for using the first-in-first-out (“FIFO”) method of accounting. Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The Company estimates the net realizable value of inventories based on an assessment of expected sales prices.

 

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Repair and maintenance costs that do not improve service potential or extend economic life are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The useful life of computer equipment is five years

 

Certain events or changes in circumstances may indicate that the recoverability of the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment should be assessed, including, among others, a significant decrease in market value, a significant change in the business climate in a particular market, or a current period operating or cash flow loss combined with historical losses or projected future losses. When such events or changes in circumstances are present and an impairment test is performed, we estimate the future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset or asset group and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount, we recognize an impairment loss. The impairment loss recognized is the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value.

 

Fair value measurements

When required to measure assets or liabilities at fair value, the Company uses a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used. The Company determines the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements in their entirety fall. The categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Level 1 uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, Level 2 uses significant other observable inputs, and Level 3 uses significant unobservable inputs. The amount of the total gains or losses for the period are included in earnings that are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date. The Company has no assets or liabilities that are adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis.

 

Convertible financial instruments

The Company bifurcates conversion options from their host instruments and accounts for them as free-standing derivative financial instruments if certain criteria are met. The criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not remeasured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur, and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. An exception to this rule is when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional, as that term is described under applicable U.S. GAAP.

 

When the Company has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments, discounts are recorded for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in the instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the instrument.

 

Common stock purchase warrants and derivative financial instruments

Common stock purchase warrants and other derivative financial instruments are classified as equity if the contracts (1) require physical settlement or net-share settlement, or (2) give the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). Contracts which (1) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the Company), (2) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement), or (3) that contain reset provisions that do not qualify for the scope exception are classified as liabilities. The Company assesses classification of its common stock purchase warrants and other derivatives at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between equity and liabilities is required.

Table of Contents

 

Beneficial conversion feature

The issuance of the convertible debt generated a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”), which arises when a debt or equity security is issued with an embedded conversion option that is beneficial to the investor or in the money at inception because the conversion option has an effective strike price that is less than the market price of the underlying stock at the commitment date. The Company recognized the BCF by allocating the intrinsic value of the conversion option, which is the number of shares of common stock available upon conversion multiplied by the difference between the effective conversion price per share and the fair value of common stock per share on the commitment date, resulting in a discount on the convertible debt (recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital). The discount is amortized to interest expense over the term of the convertible debt.

 

Income taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, the Company does not foresee generating taxable income in the near future and utilizing its deferred tax asset, therefore, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

 

A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Company has no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented.

 

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recorded in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”). Revenue is recognized from product sales when goods are shipped, title and risk of loss have transferred to the purchaser, there are no significant vendor obligations, the fees are fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling are included in net sales. Costs associated with shipping and handling are included in cost of goods sold. The Company recognizes sales on a gross basis when it is considered the primary obligor in the transaction and on a net basis when it is considered to be acting as an agent. We record estimates for cash discounts, product returns, and other discounts in the period of the sale. This provision is recorded as a reduction from gross sales and the reserves are shown as a reduction of accounts receivable.

 

Cost of sales

Cost of sales includes inventory costs and shipping and freight expenses.

 

Related parties

The Company follows ASC 850, ”Related Party Disclosures,” for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.

 

Commitments and contingencies

The Company follows ASC 450-20, “Loss Contingencies,” to report accounting for contingencies. Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.

Basic and diluted earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the effect of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including stock options, warrants to purchase the Company's common stock, and convertible note payable. For the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, potentially dilutive common stock equivalents not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive are as follows:

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation to employees and non-employees consist of stock options grants, warrants to purchase common stock, and restricted shares that are recognized in the statement of operations based on their fair values at the date of grant. The fair value of share of common stock is based on the trading price of the Company’s share.

 

The Company calculates the fair value of option and warrant grants utilizing the Black-Scholes pricing model. Assumptions used by the Company in using the Black-Scholes pricing model include: 1) volatility based on the Company’s average volatility rate, 2) risk free interest rate based on the U.S. Treasury yield for a term consistent with the expected life of the awards in effect at the time of the grant, 3) the expected life of the option or warrants, and 4) expected cash dividend rate on shares of common stock. During the year ending June 30, 2020 and 2019, volatility was based on average rates for similar publicly traded companies.

 

The amount of stock-based compensation recognized during a period is based on the value of the portion of the awards that are ultimately expected to vest. The resulting stock-based compensation expense for employee awards is generally recognized on a straight- line basis over the vesting period of the award.

 

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

 

Recent accounting pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The update modified the classification criteria and requires lessees to recognize the assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases. The update was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of this update as of July 1, 2019 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements because the Company has no long-term operating leases.

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The update aligns the accounting for share-based payment awards issued to nonemployees with those issued to employees. Under the new guidance, the nonemployee awards will be measured on the grant date and compensation costs will be recognized when achievement of the performance condition is probable. This new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year. The adoption of the new guidance on July 1, 2019 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework- Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The update modifies the disclosure requirements for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements, primarily those surrounding Level 3 fair value measurements and transfers between Level 1 and Level 2. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance and does not expect it to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-18, Clarifying the Interaction Between Topic 808 and Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which clarifies when transactions between participants in a collaborative arrangement are within the scope of Topic 606. This ASU becomes effective for the Company in the year ending December 31, 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

24

Table of Contents

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, ASC Subtopic 470-20 “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options” and ASC subtopic 815-40 “Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”. The standard reduced the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting; and, (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

 

Note 3 - Going Concern

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using U.S. GAAP, applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. During the year ended June 30, 2020, the Company had a net loss of $2,600,468. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $4,509,841. The Company has not established sufficient revenue to cover its operating costs and will require additional capital to continue its operating plan. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

 

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan to obtain such resources for the Company includes: sales of equity instruments; traditional financing, such as loans; and obtaining capital from management and significant stockholders sufficient to meet its minimum operating expenses. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing this plan.

 

There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient additional funds when needed or that such funds, if available, will be obtainable on terms satisfactory to the Company. In addition, profitability will ultimately depend upon the level of revenues received from business operations. However, there is no assurance that the Company will attain profitability. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 5 – Advances to Radiant Images, Inc.

 

Advances to Radiant Images, Inc.

 

Optical Flow LLC

On June 7, 2018, the Company entered into a joint-venture partnership with Insight Engineering, LLC (“Insight”) to develop high resolution imaging systems. The partnership established Optical Flow, LLC (“Optical Flow) with each party owning 50%. In June 2018, the Company contributed $150,000 to the venture. An additional $750,000 was invested by the Company in the year ended June 30, 2019. Throughout most of the year ended June 30, 2019, the Company accounted for its investment in Optical Flow LLC using the equity method of accounting. As a result of the Radiant Images, Inc. acquisition agreement (see below), the Company and Insight agreed to contribute no further amounts to and cease operations of what was the intended business of Optical Flow. Because Optical Flow had no continuing operations, it became only a conduit to submit advances to Radiant, and the Company bore all risk of loss. Consequently the Company determined that Optical Flow should be consolidated as of June 30, 2019. Operating results and cash flows of Optical Flow are included in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2019. There was little activity in Optical Flow during the year ended June 30, 2020.

 

Radiant Images, Inc.

On September 19, 2019, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (“Radiant Agreement”) with Radiant Images, Inc., a California corporation (“Radiant”), as well as Radiant’s shareholder Gianna Wolfe and key employee, Michael Mansouri, pursuant to which the Company would acquire 100% of the shares of common stock of Radiant from Wolfe, effectuating the acquisition of Radiant.

 

Prior to the entering the agreement, Optical Flow had advanced $920,800 to Radiant. Per terms of the Radiant Agreement, this advance was to be applied as deposit on the purchase price. At June 30, 2019, the advance amount was presented as “Advances to Radiant Images, Inc.” on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

The Radiant purchase price was equal to $1,810,905 plus the cash and cash equivalents of Radiant as of the close of business on the closing date.

Note Receivable – Radiant Images, Inc.

 

In contemplation of the closing of the Radiant Agreement, the advance balance of $920,800 was formalized in a secured revolving promissory note (“Radiant Note)” dated April 26, 2019. Further advances to Radiant prior to the closing of the acquisition would increase the balance of the promissory note. The interest rate on the note was 12% and accrues daily on the outstanding balance and is collateralized by all of the assets of Radiant pursuant to a Security Agreement. The purchase price would be offset by the balance of the promissory note and interest upon closing. Through June 30, 2020, additional cash advances under the note receivable was $385,000 in equity-related transactions.

 

In April 2020, the Company received notice from Radiant of its intent to terminate the Radiant Agreement. As per terms of the agreement, the Radiant Note and related interest became due. The Company has ceased further discussions with respect to the acquisition and is pursuing litigation for repayment of amounts due by Radiant. The Company’s investment in Radiant was structured as a revolving note and has been classified as a Note Receivable from Radiant due with accrued but unpaid interest. Pursuant to the terms of the revolving note, Radiant is required to repay the money already invested to Hawkeye with interest. The note receivable was issued on April 26, 2019, is due upon demand of the Company at any time commencing April 26, 2020. The interest rate on the note is 12% and accrues daily on the outstanding balance. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, total contributions of $337,000 were made to Radiant, bringing the balance of the note receivable to $1,305,800 at June 30, 2020 (not including interest). Because of the ongoing litigation with Radiant, the Company recorded an allowance for note receivable of $1,305,800 and interest receivable of $154,042, during the year ended June 30, 2020. Nevertheless, the Company intends to vigorously pursue the litigation and expects to fully collect these amounts from Radiant and/or its principals.

During the period of inception through June 30, 2020 the Company has not had any disagreements with BF Borgers on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to BF Borger’s satisfaction, would have caused them to make reference thereto in their reports on the Company's financial statements for such periods.

 

During the period of inception through June 30, 2020 there were no reportable events, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

 

During the period of inception to June 30, 2020, the Company has not consulted with BF Borgers regarding either:

 

1.

the application of accounting principles to any specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, and neither a written report was provided to the Company nor oral advice was provided that BF Borgers concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or

 

2.

any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereto) or a reportable event (as described in paragraph (a)(1)(v) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K).

 

The report of BF Borgers regarding the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

  

Our management, consisting of Corby Marshall as Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2020. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria described in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO)  Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that, as of June 30, 2020, our internal control over financial reporting were not effective due to material weaknesses in our internal controls due to the limited segregation of duties.

Table of Contents

 

In response to that assessment we have made a determination that all accounting and financial reporting services should be outsourced to a qualified consulting firm and we engaged a new provider.  We have subsequently replaced that provider with an internal accounting contractor.

 

We have also made the determination that we need to dedicate more of the company’s current and future financial resources to this function and have recently engaged a permanent Chief Financial Officer.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permits us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of the year ended June 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

HAWKEYE SYSTEMS, INC.

2019 EMPLOYEES’, DIRECTORS’ AND CONSULTANTS’

STOCK OPTION PLAN

 

Upon adoption by the Board of Directors, this 2019 Employees’, Directors’ and Consultants’ Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) authorizes Hawkeye Systems, Inc. to issue options to purchase up to 2,500,000 shares of common stock, on terms to be determined pursuant to option agreements, to its Employees, Directors, and Consultants subject to the following terms.

 

1. Purpose of the Plan.

 

The purpose of the Plan is to enable the Company to attract, retain and motivate its employees, directors and qualified consultants by providing for or increasing the proprietary interests of such employees, directors and consultants in the Company through increased stock ownership.

 

The Plan provides for options which either (i) qualify as incentive stock options (“Incentive Options”) within the meaning of that term in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or (ii) do not so qualify under Section 422 of the Code (“Nonstatutory Options”) (collectively “Options”). Any Option granted under this Plan will be clearly identified at the time of grant as to whether it is intended to be either an Incentive Option or a Nonstatutory Option.

 

2. Definitions.

 

The following terms, when appearing in the text of this Plan in capitalized form, will have the meanings set out below:

 

(a) “Board” means the Board of Directors of the Company.

 

(b) “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as heretofore or hereafter amended.

 

(c) “Committee” means the committee appointed by the Board pursuant to Section 3 below.

 

(d) “Company” means Hawkeye Systems, Inc. or any parent or “subsidiary corporation,” as that term is defined by Section 424(f) of the Code, thereof, unless the context requires it to be limited to Competitive Technologies, Inc..

 

(e) “Consultants” means the class of persons consisting of individuals engaged by the Company by contract or otherwise to provide services to the Company as the Committee shall so determine.

 

(f) “Directors” means the class of persons consisting of individuals duly elected to and actively serving on the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

(g) “Disabled Grantee” means a Grantee who is disabled within the meaning of Section 422(c)(6) of the Code.

 

(h) “Employees” means the class of employees consisting of individuals regularly employed by the Company on a full-time salaried basis who are identified as key employees, or such other employees as the Committee shall so determine.

 

(i) “Executive Officer” means those individuals who, on the last day of the taxable year at issue: (i) served as the Company’s chief executive officer or was acting in a similar capacity, regardless of compensation level; and (ii) the four most highly compensated executive officers (other than the chief executive officer) all as determined pursuant to Treasury Regulation 1.162-27(c)(2).

 

 
Page 1 of 9

 

 

(j) “Fair Market Value” means, with respect to the common stock of the Company, the price at which the stock would change hands between an informed, able and willing buyer and seller, neither of which is under a compulsion to enter into the transaction. Fair Market Value will be determined in good faith by the Committee in accordance with a valuation method which is consistent with the guidelines set forth in Treasury Regulation 1.421-7 (e) (2) or any applicable regulations issued pursuant to Section 422(a) of the Code. Fair Market Value will be determined without regard to any restriction other than a restriction which, by its terms, will never lapse.

 

(k) “Grantee” means an eligible Employee, Director or Consultant under this Plan who has been granted an Option.

 

(l) “Incentive Option” means an Option that qualifies for the benefit described in Section 421 of the Code, by virtue of compliance with the provisions of Section 422 of the Code.

 

(m) “Nonstatutory Option” means an Option that is not an Incentive Option.

 

(n) “Option” means either an Incentive Option or a Nonstatutory Option granted under this Plan.

 

(o) “Option Agreement” means the agreement entered into between the Company and an individual Grantee and specifying the terms and conditions of the Option granted to the Grantee, which terms and conditions will recite or incorporate by reference: (i) the provisions of this Plan which are not subject to variation; and (ii) the variable terms and conditions of each Option granted hereunder which will apply to that Grantee.

 

(p) “Optionee” means a Grantee, and, under the appropriate circumstances, his guardian, representative, heir, distributee, legatee or successor in interest, including any transferee.

 

(q) “Stock” means the Company’s common stock.

 

3. Administration of the Plan.

 

(a) Committee Membership. The Plan shall be administered by a committee appointed by the Board, to be known as the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”). The Committee shall be not less than two members and to the extent possible shall be comprised solely of Non-employee Directors, as defined by Rule 16b-3(b)(3)(i) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”), or any successor definition adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and who shall each also qualify as an Outside Director for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code. Any vacancy occurring on the Committee may be filled by appointment by the Board. The Board at its discretion may from time to time appoint members to the Committee in substitution of members previously appointed, may remove members of the Committee and may fill vacancies, however caused, in the Committee. The Committee shall initially consist of Yale Peebles, Nicolas Lin and Lawrence Iwanski.

 

(b) Committee Procedures. The Committee shall select one of its members as chairman and shall hold meetings at such times and places as it may determine. A quorum of the Committee shall consist of a majority of its members, and the Committee may act by vote of a majority of its members present at a meeting at which there is a quorum, or without a meeting by written consent signed by all members of the Committee. If any powers of the Committee hereunder are limited or denied by the Board or under applicable law, the same powers may be exercised by the Board.

 

 
Page 2 of 9

 

 

(c) Committee Powers and Responsibilities. The Committee will interpret the Plan, prescribe, amend and rescind any rules or regulations necessary or appropriate for the administration of the Plan, and make such other determinations and take such other actions it deems necessary or advisable, except as otherwise expressly reserved for the Board. Subject to the limitations imposed by the Board or under applicable law and the terms of the Plan, the Committee may periodically determine which Employees, Directors, and/or Consultants should receive Options under the Plan, whether the options shall be Incentive Options or Nonstatutory Options, the number of shares covered by such Options, the per share purchase price for such shares, and the terms thereof, including but not limited to transferability of such Options, and shall have full power to grant such Options. In making its determinations, the Committee shall consider, among other relevant factors, the importance of the duties of the Grantee to the Company, his or her experience with the Company, and his or her future value to the Company. All decisions, interpretations and other actions of the Committee shall be final and binding on all Grantees, Optionees and all persons deriving their rights from a Grantee or Optionee. No member of the Board or the Committee shall be liable for any action taken or failed to be taken in good faith or for any determination made pursuant to the Plan.

 

4. Stock Subject to Plan.

 

This Plan authorizes the Committee to grant Options to Employees, Directors and/or Consultants up to the aggregate amount of 2,500,000 shares of Stock, subject to eligibility and any limitations specified herein. Adjustment in the shares subject to the Plan shall be made as provided in Section 9. Any shares covered by an Option which, for any reason, expires, terminates or is canceled may be reoptioned under the Plan.

 

5. Eligibility

 

(a) General Rule. All Employees, Directors and Consultants defined in Section 2(e) and 2(g) shall be eligible.

 

(b) Ten Percent Stockholders. An Employee, Director or Consultant who owns more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of outstanding Stock shall not be eligible for designation as a Grantee of an Incentive Option unless (i) the exercise price for each share of Stock subject to such Incentive Option is at least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of grant, and (ii) such Incentive Option, by its terms, is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date of grant.

 

(c) Attribution Rules. For purposes of Subsection (b) above, in determining stock ownership, an Employee, Director or Consultant shall be deemed to own the Stock owned, directly or indirectly, by or for his brothers, sisters (whether by whole or half blood), spouse, ancestors and lineal descendants. Stock owned, directly or indirectly, by or for a corporation, partnership, estate or trust shall be deemed to be owned proportionately by or for its stockholders, partners or beneficiaries.

 

(d) Outstanding Stock. For purposes of Subsection (b) above, “Outstanding Stock” shall include all Stock actually issued and outstanding immediately after the grant. “Outstanding Stock” shall not include shares authorized for issuance under outstanding options held by the Employee, Director or Consultant, or by any other person.

 

(e) Individual Limits of Executive Officers. Subject to the provisions of Section 9 hereof, the number of option shares granted in a fiscal year to any Executive Officer shall not exceed 500,000 shares for the first fiscal year during which such person becomes an Executive Officer and shall not exceed 1,000,000 shares for any subsequent fiscal year during which such person serves as an Executive Officer.

 

 
Page 3 of 9

 

 

(f) Incentive Option Limitation. The aggregate Fair Market Value of the stock for which Incentive Options granted to any one eligible Employee, Director or Consultant under this Plan and under all incentive stock option plans of the Company, its parent(s) and subsidiaries, may by their terms first become exercisable during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000, determining Fair Market Value of the stock subject to any Option as of the time that Option is granted. If the date on which one or more Incentive Options could be first exercised would be accelerated pursuant to any other provision of the Plan or any Stock Option Agreement referred to in Section 6(a), or an amendment thereto, and the acceleration of such exercise date would result in a violation of the restriction set forth in the preceding sentence, then notwithstanding any such other provision the exercise date of such Incentive Options shall be accelerated only to the extent, if any, that is permitted under Section 422 of the Code and the exercise date of the Incentive Options with the lowest option prices shall be accelerated first. Any exercise date which cannot be accelerated without violating the $100,000 restriction of this section shall nevertheless be accelerated, and the portion of the Option becoming exercisable thereby shall be treated as a Nonstatutory Option.

 

6. Terms and Conditions of All Options Under the Plan.

 

(a) Option Agreement. All Options granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by a written Option Agreement and shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms and conditions which are not inconsistent with the Plan and which the Committee deems appropriate for inclusion in an Option Agreement.

 

(b) Number of Shares. Each Option Agreement shall specify the number of shares of the Stock each such Employee, Director or Consultant will be entitled to purchase pursuant to the Option and shall provide for the adjustment of such number in accordance with Section 9. Each Option Agreement shall state the minimum number of shares which must be exercised at any time, if any.

 

(c) Nature of Option. Each Option Agreement shall specify the intended nature of the Option as an Incentive Option, a Nonstatutory Option or partly of each type.

 

(d) Exercise Price. Each Option Agreement shall specify the exercise price. The exercise price of either the Incentive Option or the Nonstatutory Option shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of grant. Subject to the foregoing, the exercise price under any Option shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. The exercise price shall be payable in the form described in Section 7.

 

(e) Term of Option. The Option Agreement shall specify the term of the Option. The term of any Option granted under this Plan is subject to expiration, termination, and cancellation as set forth within this Plan.

 

(f) Exercisability; Vesting. Each Option Agreement shall specify the date when all or any installment of the Option is to become exercisable. Such Option shall not be exercisable after the expiration of such term which shall be fixed by the Committee, but in any event not later than ten years from the date such Option is granted. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee may grant Options which are vested, or which become vested upon the happening of an event or events as specified by the Committee.

 

(g) Withholding Taxes. Upon exercise of any Nonstatutory Option (or any Incentive Option which is treated as a Nonstatutory Option because it fails to meet the requirements set forth in the Code for Incentive Options), the Optionee must tender full payment to the Company for any federal income tax withholding required under the Code in connection with such exercise (“Withholding Tax”). If the Optionee fails to tender to the Company the Withholding Tax, the Committee, at its discretion, shall withhold from the Optionee any and all shares subject to such Option, and accordingly, subject to Withholding Tax until such time as either of the following events has occurred:

 

(i) the Optionee tenders to the Company payment in cash to pay the Withholding Tax; or

 

(ii) if the Optionee is an Employee, the Company withholds from the Optionee’s wages an amount sufficient to pay the Withholding Tax.

 

 
Page 4 of 9

 

 

(h) Termination and Acceleration of Option.

 

For Incentive Options:

 

(i) If the employment of a Grantee who is not a Disabled Grantee is terminated without cause, or such Grantee voluntarily quits or retires under any retirement plan of the Company, any then outstanding and exercisable stock option held by such a Grantee shall be exercisable, in accordance with the provisions of the Option Agreement, by such Grantee at any time prior to the expiration date of such Option or within three months after the date of termination of employment or service, whichever is the shorter period.

 

(ii) If the employment of a Grantee who is a Disabled Grantee is terminated without cause, any then outstanding and exercisable Option held by such a Grantee shall be exercisable, in accordance with the provisions of the Option Agreement, by such a Grantee at any time prior to the expiration date of such Option or within one year after the date of such termination of employment or service, whichever is the shorter period.

 

For all Options issued hereunder:

 

(i) If the Company terminates the employment of a Grantee for cause, all outstanding stock options held by the Grantee at the time of such termination shall automatically terminate unless the Committee notifies the Grantee that his or her options will not terminate. A termination “for cause” shall be defined under each written Option Agreement. The Company assumes no responsibility and is under no obligation to notify a Permitted Transferee (as hereafter defined in section 13) of early termination of an Option on account of a Grantee’s termination of employment.

 

(ii) Whether termination of employment or other service is a termination “for cause” or whether a Grantee is a Disabled Grantee shall be determined in each case, in its discretion, by the Committee and any such determination by the Committee shall be final and binding.

 

(iii) Following the death of a Grantee during employment, any outstanding and exercisable Options held by such Grantee at the time of death shall be exercisable, in accordance with the provisions of the Option Agreement, by the person or persons entitled to do so under the Will of the Grantee, or, if the Grantee shall fail to make testamentary disposition of the stock option or shall die intestate, by the legal representative of the Grantee at any time prior to the expiration date of such Option or within one year after the date of death, whichever is the shorter period.

 

(iv) The Committee may grant Options, or amend Options previously granted, to provide that such Options continue to be exercisable up to ten years after the date of grant irrespective of the termination of the Grantee’s employment with the Company, and which vest upon grant or become vested upon the happening of an event or events specified by the Committee, although the exercise of such vested Options in the case of Incentive Options more than three months after termination of employment may convert such Options to Nonstatutory Options with respect to the income tax consequences of such exercise.

 

7. Payment for Shares

 

(a) Cash. Payment in full for shares purchased under an Option shall be made in cash (including check, bank draft or money order) or pursuant to a cashless exercise provision, if any is available under the Option Agreement, at the time that the Option is exercised.

 

 
Page 5 of 9

 

 

(b) Stock. In lieu of cash an Optionee may, with the consent of the Committee, make payment for Stock purchased under an Option, in whole or in part, by tendering to the Company in good form for transfer, shares of Stock valued at Fair Market Value on the date the Option is exercised. Such shares will have been owned by the Optionee or the Optionee’s representative for the time specified by the Committee but in no case shall the Optionee or his representative have held a beneficial interest in such tendered shares for a period less than six months prior to the exercise of the Option.

 

8. Use of Proceeds from Stock.

 

Cash proceeds from the sale of Stock pursuant to Options granted under the Plan shall constitute general funds of the Company.

 

9. Adjustments.

 

Changes or adjustments in the Option price, number of shares subject to an Option or other specifics as the Committee should decide will be considered or made pursuant to the following rules:

 

(a) Upon Changes in Stock. If the outstanding Stock is increased or decreased, or is changed into or exchanged for a different number or kinds of shares or securities, as a result of one or more reorganizations, recapitalization, stock splits, reverse stock splits, split-up, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change in corporate structure, or otherwise, appropriate adjustments will be made in the exercise price and/ or the number and/or kind of shares or securities for which Options may thereafter be granted under this Plan and for which Options then outstanding under this Plan may thereafter be exercised. The Committee will make such adjustments as it may deem fair, just and equitable to prevent substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to or available for Optionees. No adjustment provided for in this Section 9 will require the Company to issue or sell a fraction of a share or other security. Nothing in this Section will be construed to require the Company to make any specific or formula adjustment.

 

(b) Prohibited Adjustment. If any such adjustment provided for in this Section 9 requires the approval of stockholders in order to enable the Company to grant or amend Options, then no such adjustment will be made without the required stockholder approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the effect of any such adjustment would be to cause an Incentive Option to fail to continue to qualify under Section 422 of the Code or to cause a modification, extension or renewal of such stock option within the meaning described in Section 424 of the Code, the Committee may elect that such adjustment not be made but rather shall use reasonable efforts to effect such other adjustment of each then outstanding Option as the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall deem equitable and which will not result in any disqualification, modification, extension or renewal (within the meaning of Section 424 of the Code) of such Incentive Option.

 

(c) Further Limitations. Nothing in this Section will entitle the Optionee to adjustment of his Option in the following circumstances:

 

(i) The issuance or sale of additional shares of the Stock, through public offering or otherwise;

 

(ii) The issuance or authorization of an additional class of capital stock of the Company;

 

(iii) The conversion of convertible preferred stock or debt of the Company into Stock;

 

(iv) The payment of dividends except as provided in Section 9 (a).

 

The grant of an Option shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure, to merge or consolidate or to dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

 

 
Page 6 of 9

 

 

10. Legal Requirements:

 

(a) Compliance with All Laws. The Company will not be required to issue or deliver any certificates for shares of Stock prior to (a) the listing of any such Stock to be acquired pursuant to the exercise of any Option on any stock exchange on which the Stock may then be listed, and (b) the compliance with any registration requirements or qualification of such shares under any federal securities laws, including without limitation the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“1933 Act”), the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or state securities laws and regulations, the regulations of any stock exchange or interdealer quotation system on which the Company’s securities may then be listed, or obtaining any ruling or waiver from any government body which the Company may, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable, or which, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, is otherwise required.

 

(b) Compliance with Specific Code Provisions. It is the intent of the Company that the Plan and its administration conform strictly to the requirements of Section 422 of the Code with respect to Incentive Options. Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, nothing herein will contravene any requirement set forth in Section 422 of the Code with respect to Incentive Options and if inconsistent provisions are otherwise found herein, they will be deemed void and unenforceable or automatically amended to conform, as the case may be.

 

(c) Plan Subject to Nevada Law. All questions arising with respect to the provisions of the Plan will be determined by application of the Code and the laws of the state of Nevada except to the extent that Nevada laws are preempted by any federal law.

 

11. Rights as a Stockholder.

 

An Optionee shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Stock covered by his or her Option until the date of issuance of the stock certificate to him or her after receipt of the consideration in full set forth in the Option Agreement. Except as provided in Section 9 hereof, no adjustments will be made for dividends, whether ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities, or other property, or for distributions for which the record date is prior to the date on which the Option is exercised.

 

12. Restrictions on Shares.

 

Prior to the issuance or delivery of any shares of the Stock under the Plan, the person exercising the Option may be required to:

 

(a) represent and warrant that the shares of the Stock to be acquired upon exercise of the Option are being acquired for investment for the account of such person and not with a view to resale or other distribution thereof;

 

(b) represent and warrant that such person will not, directly or indirectly, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any such shares unless the sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the shares is pursuant to the provisions of this Plan and effective registrations under the 1933 Act and any applicable state or foreign securities laws or pursuant to appropriate exemptions from any such registrations; and

 

(c) execute such further documents as may reasonably be required by the Committee upon exercise of the Option or any part thereof, including but not limited to any stock restriction agreement that the Committee may choose to require.

 

 
Page 7 of 9

 

 

Nothing in this Plan shall assure any Optionee that shares issuable under this Option are registered on a Form S-8 under the 1933 Act or on any other Form. The certificate or certificates representing the shares of the Stock to be issued or delivered upon exercise of an Option may bear a legend evidencing the foregoing and other legends required by any applicable securities laws. Furthermore, nothing herein or any Option granted hereunder will require the Company to issue any Stock upon exercise of any Option if the issuance would, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, constitute a violation of the 1933 Act, applicable state securities laws, or any other applicable rule or regulation then in effect. The Company shall have no liability for failure to issue shares upon any exercise of Options because of a delay pending the meeting of any such requirements.

 

13. Transferability.

 

The Committee shall retain the authority and discretion to permit a Nonstatutory Option, but in no case an Incentive Option, to be transferable as long as such transfers are made only to one or more of the following: family members, limited to children of Grantee, spouse of Grantee, or grandchildren of Grantee, or trusts for the benefit of Grantee and/or such family members (“Permitted Transferee”), provided that such transfer is a bona fide gift and accordingly, the Grantee receives no consideration for the transfer, and that the Options transferred continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions that were applicable to the Options immediately prior to the transfer. Options are also subject to transfer by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Options granted pursuant to this Plan shall not be otherwise transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or disposed of in any way, whether by operation of law or otherwise. A Permitted Transferee may not subsequently transfer an Option. The designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute a transfer.

 

14. No Right to Continued Employment.

 

This Plan and any Option granted under this Plan will not confer upon any Optionee any right with respect to continued employment or engagement by the Company nor shall they alter, modify, limit or interfere with any right or privilege of the Company under any employment agreement heretofore or hereafter executed with any Optionee, including the right to terminate any Optionee’s employment or engagement at any time for or without cause, to change his or her level of compensation or to change his or her responsibilities or position.

 

15. Corporate Reorganizations.

 

Upon the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or upon a reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Company as a result of which the outstanding securities of the class then subject to Options hereunder are changed into or exchanged for cash or property or securities not of the Company’s issue, or upon a sale of substantially all the property of the Company to, or the acquisition of stock representing more than eighty percent (80%) of the voting power of the stock of the Company then outstanding by another corporation or person, the Plan will terminate and all Options will lapse. The result described above will not occur if provision is made in writing in connection with such transaction for the continuance of the Plan and/or for the assumption of Options earlier granted, or the substitution for such Options of options covering the stock of a successor employer corporation, or a parent or a subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices, in which event the Plan and Options theretofore granted will continue in the manner and under the terms so provided. If the Plan and unexercised Options shall terminate pursuant to the foregoing, all persons holding any unexercised portions of Options then outstanding shall have the right, at such time prior to the consummation of the transaction causing the termination as the Company shall designate, to exercise the unexercised portions of their options, including the portions thereof which would but for this Section 15 not yet be exercisable.

 

 
Page 8 of 9

 

 

16. Modification, Extension and Renewal.

 

(a) Options. Subject to the conditions of and within the limitations prescribed in the Plan herein, the Committee may modify, extend, cancel or renew outstanding Options. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no modification will, without the prior written consent of the Optionee, alter, impair or waive any rights or obligations associated with any Option earlier granted under the Plan.

 

(b) Plan. The Board may at any time and from time to time interpret, amend or discontinue the Plan.

 

17. Plan Date and Duration.

 

The Plan shall take effect on the date it is adopted by the Board. Options may not be granted under this Plan after December 31, 2022.

(ii) Seller Parties shall not have any obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees in respect of any Losses for which indemnification is claimed under Section 10.2(a) (other than with respect to Fundamental Representations and Specified Representations) unless and until the aggregate of such Losses exceeds $25,000 (the “Deductible”), at which point Seller Parties will be obligated to indemnify the Buyer Indemnitees from and against all such Losses in excess of the Deductible.

Prior to pursuing a claim in respect of any Losses hereunder (other than submitting a claim notice in accordance with Section 10.5(a)), the Buyer Indemnitees shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek full recovery under all insurance policies and Contracts covering any Loss to the same extent as they would if such Loss was not subject to indemnification hereunder. In the event that any insurance or other recovery is made by any Buyer Indemnitee with respect to any Loss for which such Buyer Indemnitee has been indemnified hereunder, then a refund equal to the aggregate amount of the insurance or other recovery shall be made promptly by such Buyer Indemnitee to the Seller Parties.

 

(b) Any indemnity payment made under this Agreement shall be treated by the Parties for Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

 

 
33

 

 

Section 10.5. Procedures Relating to Indemnification.

 

(a) Direct Claims. If any Buyer Indemnitee or any Seller Indemnitee (hereinafter an “Indemnified Party”) shall claim to have suffered a Loss (other than with respect to any Third-Party Claim) for which indemnification is available under Section 10.2 or Section 10.3, as the case may be (for purposes of this Section 10.5, regardless of whether such Indemnified Party is entitled to receive a payment in respect of such claim by virtue of the provisions of Section 10.4 hereof), the Indemnified Party shall notify the party required to provide indemnification (hereinafter an “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of such claim. Such written notice shall describe the facts and circumstances giving rise to such Loss, the basis upon which indemnity is being sought, the amount or estimated amount of the Loss, if known or reasonably ascertainable at the time such claim is made (or if not then reasonably ascertainable, the maximum amount of such claim reasonably estimated by the Indemnified Party), and the method of computation of such Loss, all with reasonable particularity and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such Loss shall have occurred. Any dispute regarding the Indemnified Party’s entitlement to indemnification in connection with such claim shall be resolved by any legally available means consistent with the provisions of Section 13.8 herein or as otherwise agreed in writing between the Parties.

 

(b) Third-Party Claims.

 

(i) Any Indemnified Party seeking indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE 10 in respect of any claim, demand or other Action asserted by any Person who is not a Party or an Affiliate thereof (a “Third-Party Claim”) shall give the Indemnifying Party from whom indemnification with respect to such Third-Party Claim is sought prompt written notice of such Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. Such written notice shall describe the facts and circumstances giving rise to such Third-Party Claim, the basis upon which indemnity is being sought, the amount or estimated amount of the Losses relating to such Third-Party Claim, if known or reasonably ascertainable at the time such claim is made (or if not then reasonably ascertainable, the maximum amount of such Losses reasonably estimated by the Indemnified Party), and the method of computation of such Losses, all with reasonable particularity and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder.

 

(ii) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to control the defense of the Third-Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party by notifying the Indemnified Party in writing within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of the Third-Party Claim from the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party is assuming the defense against such Third-Party Claim. In the event that the Indemnifying Party does deliver notice as prescribed in this Section 10.5(b)(ii) and thereby properly elects to conduct the defense of the subject Third-Party Claim: (A) the Indemnified Party will cooperate with and make available to the Indemnifying Party such assistance and materials as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request; and (B) the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to post a bond or provide other security required in connection with such Third-Party Claim. In the event the Indemnifying Party fails to give notice of its election to conduct the defense of a Third-Party Claim within the time and as prescribed in this Section 10.5(b)(ii) or otherwise may not assume the defense of the Third-Party Claim pursuant to this Section 10.5(b)(ii), then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to control such defense. The party controlling the defense of any Third-Party Claim shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the other parties copies of all correspondence, pleadings, motions, briefs, appeals or other written statements relating to or submitted in connection with the defense of the Third-Party Claim, and timely notices of, and the right to participate in (as an observer) any hearing or other court proceeding relating to the Third-Party Claim.

 

 
34

 

 

(iii) So long as the Indemnifying Party provides proper notice under Section 10.5(b)(ii): (A) the Indemnifying Party may conduct the defense of the Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section 10.5(b)(ii); (B) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include all legal fees and similar expenses incurred in the defense of such Third-Party Claim) and participate in the defense of the Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party will be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party if: (I) so requested by the Indemnifying Party to participate or (II) in the reasonable written opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, a conflict exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party that would make such separate representation advisable; provided further, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to pay for more than one (1) such counsel for all Indemnified Parties in connection with any Third-Party Claim; and (C) the Indemnifying Party will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim which: (1) does not include a provision whereby the plaintiff or claimant in the matter releases the Indemnified Party from all liability with respect thereto; (2) would result in (a) the imposition of a consent order, injunction or decree that would restrict the future activity or conduct of the Indemnified Party, or (b) a finding or admission of a violation of applicable Law by the Indemnified Party; or (3) imposes an injunction or other equitable relief upon the Indemnified Party.

 

(iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a settlement offer solely for money damages is made by the claimant in the applicable Third-Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing of the Indemnifying Party’s willingness to accept the settlement offer and, subject to the applicable limitations of this ARTICLE 10, pay the amount called for by such offer, and the Indemnified Party declines to accept such offer, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest such Third-Party Claim, free of any participation by the Indemnifying Party, and the amount of any ultimate liability with respect to such Third-Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party has an obligation to pay hereunder shall be limited to the amount of the settlement offer that the Indemnified Party declined to accept.

 

Section 10.6. Right of Subrogation. Upon making any payment to an Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses, the Indemnifying Party shall, to the extent of such payment, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party against any third party in respect of the Losses to which such payment relates. Such Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party shall execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence or further perfect such subrogation rights.

 

Section 10.7. Mitigation. Following the Closing, each Indemnified Party shall take all commercially reasonable actions to mitigate all Losses incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by it or any Indemnified Party that it controls (including costs to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the circumstances giving rise, or reasonably expected to give rise, to such Losses) upon becoming aware of any fact, event or circumstance that has resulted in, or would reasonably be expected to give rise to, any such Loss. The Indemnified Parties shall cooperate with each other with respect to resolving any claim or Liability underlying any Loss with respect to which an Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify any Person hereunder, including by making commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate or resolve any such claim or Liability.

 

 
35

 

 

Section 10.8. Exclusive Remedy. Following the Closing, except with respect to claims arising from Fraud and except for equitable relief to which any Party may be entitled pursuant to this Agreement, the sole and exclusive remedy for any and all claims arising under, out of, or related to this Agreement or the sale and purchase of the Shares shall be the rights of indemnification set forth in this ARTICLE 10, and no Person will have any other entitlement, remedy or recourse, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, it being agreed that all of such other remedies, entitlements and recourse are expressly waived and released by the Parties to the fullest extent permitted by Law.

The Seller Parties shall prepare or cause to be prepared (i) all Tax Returns for the Company (after taking into account all appropriate extensions) due on or prior to the Closing Date and (ii) IRS Form 1120S (and the similar form or forms for state and local income Tax purposes) of the Company for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods (“Seller Prepared Returns”). The Buyer and the Company shall cooperate with the Seller Parties in preparing the Seller Prepared Returns, including providing records and information which are reasonably relevant to such Seller Prepared Returns, making employees and third-party advisors available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided. The Seller Prepared Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the past practice of the Company, except as otherwise required by applicable Tax Law or changes in facts. At least thirty (30) days prior to the due date thereof (taking into account any extensions thereof), Seller Parties shall provide the Buyer with drafts of any such Seller Prepared Returns that are Income Tax Returns for Buyer’s review and comment. With respect to any such Tax Returns that are not Income Tax Returns, at least fifteen (15) days prior to the due date thereof (taking into account any extensions thereof) Seller Parties will provide the Buyer with drafts of such Tax Returns for Buyer’s review and comment. Seller Parties shall timely file all such Seller Prepared Tax Returns. For avoidance of doubt, this Section 11.1 shall apply to any Tax Returns filed or issued with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period of the Company. The Buyer, at its sole cost and expense, shall cause the Company to prepare and timely file all Tax Returns (other than Seller Prepared Returns) of the Company due after the Closing Date or overdue as of the Closing Date (the “Buyer Prepared Returns”). To the extent that a Buyer Prepared Return relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period, such Tax Return shall be prepared on a basis consistent with the past practice of the Company, except as otherwise required by applicable Tax Law or changes in facts. At least thirty (30) days prior to the due date of any Buyer Prepared Return that is an Income Tax Return and shows an Indemnified Tax or that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, the Buyer shall provide a draft of such Tax Return to the Seller Parties for the Seller Parties’ review and comment. With respect to any Buyer Tax Return that is not an Income Tax Return and shows an Indemnified Tax or that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, at least fifteen (15) days prior to the due date of such Tax Return the Buyer shall provide a draft of such Tax Return to Seller Parties for the Seller Parties’ review and comment. The Buyer shall cause the Company to incorporate any reasonable comments made by the Seller Parties within five (5) days of receipt of such draft Buyer Prepared Return in the Buyer Prepared Return actually filed.

 

Section 11.2. Straddle Period. Taxes for any Tax period of the Company that includes but does not end on the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”) shall be allocated between the portion of such Tax period ending at the close of the Closing Date and the remainder of such Tax period as follows: (A) real, personal and intangible property Taxes and any other Taxes levied on an annual or other periodic basis (“Per Diem Taxes”) ofthe Company for a Straddle Period shall be allocated based on the number of days during the portion of the Straddle Period ending with and including the Closing Date and number of days during the portion of the Straddle Period commencing on the day after the Closing Date, and (B) Taxes that are not Per Diem Taxes, including Income Taxes and any transactional Taxes such as Taxes based on sales, revenue or payments of the Company for a Straddle Period shall be allocated based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of the Closing Date.

Section 11.3. Transfer Taxes. All sales and transfer Taxes, recording charges and similar Taxes, fees or charges imposed as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Transfer Taxes”), together with any interest, penalties or additions to such Transfer Taxes, shall be paid by the Seller. The Seller Parties and the Buyer shall cooperate in timely making all filings, returns, reports and forms as necessary or appropriate to comply with the provisions of all applicable Tax Laws in connection with the payment of such Transfer Taxes, and shall cooperate in good faith to minimize, to the fullest extent possible under such Tax Laws, the amount of any such Transfer Taxes payable in connection therewith.

 

Section 11.4. Tax Indemnification. Subject to the limitations in ARTICLE X, the Seller shall indemnify the Buyer and its Affiliates from and against (i) all Losses resulting from the Company’s liability for Taxes for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods and the portion ending at the close of the Closing Date of any Straddle Period (determined for a Straddle Period in accordance with Section 11.2, (ii) all Transfer Taxes for which Seller is liable under the provisions of Section 11.3 hereof, and (iii) all Losses resulting from the Company’s liability for Taxes of another Person as a result of the Company’s status as a transferee or successor, or as a result of a contract or otherwise, where the status or relationship giving rise to such liability existed (even if the actual liability for Taxes did not) prior to Closing (collectively, “Indemnified Taxes”). For these purposes, Losses shall include any reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel or other tax advisors incurred by the Buyer or the Company in controlling a proceeding by any Governmental Authority with respect to any Indemnified Taxes.

 

Section 11.5. Tax Refunds. Seller shall be entitled to any refunds received by the Company for Income Taxes paid by the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, along with any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority, other than any such refunds that are attributable (i) to any Tax attribute of Buyer, (ii) to any Tax attribute arising in a Post-Closing Tax Period or in the portion following the Closing Date of any Straddle Period (as determined under the principles of Section 11.2 or (iii) any Taxes paid after Closing, to the extent that Seller did not fund the payment of such Taxes. The Buyer shall cause any such refunds (including interest as described above ) to which the Seller is entitled that are received by the Company or any Affiliate thereof after the Closing Date, whether by offset, credit, receipt of payment or otherwise, to be paid promptly to the Seller, net of any reasonable costs or expenses incurred by Buyer or the Company in connection with seeking or obtaining such refund and the amount of any Income Taxes of Buyer or any of its Affiliates attributable to such refund or interest. Any payment made pursuant to this Section 11.5 shall be treated by the Parties hereunder as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, except as may otherwise be required by applicable Law.

Section 11.6. Tax Proceedings. If a claim shall be made by any Governmental Authority in respect of the Company for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, the Buyer shall promptly and in any event no more than ten (10) days following the Buyer’s receipt of such claim, give written notice to the Seller Parties of such claim. Buyer shall not be required to give notice of any claim of which the Company is aware as of the Closing Date. With respect to any Tax claim relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, the Seller Parties shall have the right to control all proceedings and may make all decisions taken in connection with such Tax claim (including selection of counsel or any accounting firm) at the Seller Parties’ expense; provided, that the Buyer shall control at its own expense all proceedings taken in connection with any Tax claim relating to the Company during a Straddle Period and in connection with any Tax claim relating to the Company for a Tax period beginning after the Closing Date. The Seller Parties shall promptly notify the Buyer if it decides to control the defense or settlement of any Tax claim for a Pre-Closing Tax Period which it is entitled to control pursuant to this Agreement. No Tax claim for a Pre-Closing Tax Period for which the Seller Parties are entitled to control the proceedings may be settled without the written consent of the Buyer, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Buyer, the Seller Parties, the Company and each of their respective Affiliates shall reasonably cooperate with each other in contesting any Tax claim in accordance with this Section 11.6 and shall keep each other reasonably informed concerning the progress of proceedings related to Tax claims for Pre-Closing Tax Periods and Straddle Periods. Subject to the foregoing, in the case of a Tax claim for a Pre-Closing Tax Period for which the Seller Parties control the proceedings, (i) the Buyer may participate in such proceedings (including through its own counsel) at the Buyer’s expense, and (ii) in the case of a Tax claim for a Pre-Closing Tax Period for which the Buyer controls the proceedings, the Seller Parties may participate in such proceedings (including through its own counsel) at the Seller Parties’ expense. The Parties shall satisfy their indemnity obligations pursuant to Section 11.4 within ten (10) days after a final determination or settlement of the relevant Tax claim is made. To the extent that there is any inconsistency between Section 10.5(b) and this Section 11.6 as it relates to any matters relating to Taxes, the provisions of this Section 11.6 shall govern.

 

Section 11.7. Cooperation. The Buyer, the Company, the Seller Parties and their respective Affiliates shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Parties, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this ARTICLE XI, any audit, Action, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes, and other Tax matters addressed by this ARTICLE XI. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon another Party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax matters and making employees and third-party advisors available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

Section 13.7. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of California (including in respect of the statute of limitations or other limitations period applicable to any state Law claim, controversy or dispute) that apply to agreements made and performed entirely within the State of California, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof or of any other jurisdiction. Each Party agrees and acknowledges that the application of the Laws of the State of California is reasonable and appropriate based upon the Parties’ respective interests and contacts with the State of California. Each of the Parties waives any right or interest in having the Laws of any other state, including specifically, state Law regarding the statute of limitation or other limitations period, apply to any Party’s state Law claim, controversy or dispute which in any way arises out of or relates to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

Section 13.8. Jurisdiction. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 13.8, each Party irrevocably agrees that any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought and determined in the state and federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California (and each such Party shall not bring any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than the aforesaid courts), and each Party hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such Action for itself and in respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each Party hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any such Action: (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure to lawfully serve process; (b) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of such courts or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise); and (c) that (i) such Action in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum; (ii) the venue of such Action is improper; and (iii) this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the subject matter hereof or thereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

 

Section 13.9. Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented except by an instrument in writing signed by the Parties.

 

Section 13.10. Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing, the Parties may: (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of any Party; (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement; and (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such Party. The failure of any Party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such rights preclude any other or further exercise thereof.

 

Section 13.11. Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void, unenforceable or against its regulatory policy, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. Upon such determination that any term, provision, covenant or restriction is invalid, illegal, void, unenforceable or against regulatory policy, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

 

 
42

 

 

Section 13.12. Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, all fees, costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of legal counsel, financial advisors, brokers, finders, investment bankers and accountants, incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the Party incurring such fees, costs and expenses.

 

Section 13.13. Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

 

Section 13.14. Incorporation of Exhibits and Schedules. The Exhibits and Schedules identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

 

Section 13.15. Disclosure Schedules. The Disclosure Schedules shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: (a) any item disclosed on any particular Schedule or in any particular part or section of the Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed to be disclosed on other Schedules and in other parts or sections of the Disclosure Schedules to the extent the relevance of such disclosure to the other Schedules and other parts or sections of the Disclosure Schedules is reasonably apparent on its face; (b) no disclosure of any matter contained in the Disclosure Schedules shall create an implication that such matter meets any standard of materiality (matters reflected in the Disclosure Schedules are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected in the Disclosure Schedules; such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes only and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature, nor shall the inclusion of any item be construed as implying that any such item is “material” for any purpose); (c) any disclosures contained in the Disclosure Schedules which refer to a document are qualified in their entirety by reference to the text of such document; (d) headings and introductory language have been inserted in the Disclosure Schedules for convenience of reference only and shall to no extent have the effect of amending or changing the express description of the sections as set forth in this Agreement, and (e) shall not constitute, or be deemed to be, an admission to any person other than Buyer concerning such item.

 

Section 13.16. Specific Performance. The Parties agree that, if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not to be performed as required by their specific terms or were to be otherwise breached, irreparable damage will occur to the other Parties, no adequate remedy at law would exist and damages would be difficult to determine. It is accordingly agreed that Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller Parties, on the other hand, shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by the other (as applicable) and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Each of the Parties hereby waives any requirement under any Law to post a bond or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief. The Parties further agree that: (a) by seeking the remedies provided for in this Section 13.16, a Party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to a Party under this Agreement (including monetary damages) in the event that this Agreement has been terminated or in the event that the remedies provided for in this Section 13.16 are not available or otherwise are not granted; and (b) nothing in this Section 13.16 shall require any Party to institute any Action for (or limit any Party’s right to institute any Action for) specific performance under this Section 13.16 prior or as a condition to exercising any termination right under ARTICLE 12 (or pursuing damages prior to or after such termination), nor shall the commencement of any Action pursuant to this Section 13.16 or anything set forth in this Section 13.16 restrict or limit any Party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of ARTICLE 12 or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter. If any Party brings any Action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof by any other Party, the Outside Date shall automatically be extended by: (A) the amount of time during which such Action is pending, plus twenty (20) Business Days; or (B) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Action.

As security for the due and punctual payment and performance in full of all Obligations (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise and whether now owing or incurred in the future), Debtor hereby pledges, assigns, charges, delivers, and grants to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of itself and the Secured Note Holder, a continuing perfected security interest in and a general Lien upon all of Debtor’s right, title, and interest in and to the Collateral and all additions thereto and substitutions therefor, whether heretofore, now or hereafter received by or delivered or transferred to the Collateral Agent hereunder.

 

3. Continuing Security Interest.

 

(a) This Agreement creates an assignment, pledge, charge, continuing perfected security interest in, and general Lien upon, the Collateral and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until all Obligations have been satisfied, (ii) be binding upon Debtor and its successors, permitted transferees, and permitted assigns, and (iii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and its successors, transferees, and assigns, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Note Holder.

 

(b) Upon the full satisfaction of all Obligations, the assignment, pledge, charge, Lien, and security interest granted hereunder shall terminate, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Debtor. Upon such termination, the Collateral Agent will (i) execute and deliver to Debtor such documents as Debtor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination, (ii) deliver and transfer such Collateral to Debtor and (iii) file and record with the appropriate filing offices the termination statements, cancellations, satisfactions or similar documents necessary to evidence or otherwise give public notice of the termination of the security interests granted hereunder. In the event that the Collateral Agent fails to file such termination statements, cancellations, satisfactions or similar documents, Debtor is hereby authorized to file and record with the appropriate filing offices, on behalf of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Note Holder, such termination statements, cancellations, satisfactions or similar documents.

4. Debtor Remains Liable. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) Debtor shall remain liable under any agreements which have been (in whole or in part) pledged or assigned herein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed; (b) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of the rights hereunder shall not release Debtor from any of its duties or obligations under any such agreements; and (c) the Collateral Agent shall not have any obligation or liability under any such agreements by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the Collateral Agent be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of Debtor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.

 

5. Delivery and Perfection. Debtor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relating to all or any part of the Collateral, and agrees to take all such other actions and to execute and deliver and file or cause to be filed such other instruments or documents, as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require in order to establish and maintain a perfected, valid, and continuing security interest and Lien in the Collateral in accordance with this Agreement and the UCC and other applicable law.

 

6. Proceeds of Sale. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit or restrict in any way the Collateral Agent’s right to receive Proceeds of the Collateral in any form in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. All Proceeds that are received by Debtor contrary to the provisions of this Agreement shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from other property or funds of Debtor and shall be forthwith paid over to the Collateral Agent as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement, document or instrument of transfer).

 

7. Inspection. Debtor agrees upon notice provided by the Collateral Agent, to permit the Collateral Agent, through its officers and agents, to examine and inspect the Collateral and all records pertaining thereto, and to make extracts from such records as the Collateral Agent may require.

 

8. Representations and Warranties. Debtor represents, warrants and covenants to the Collateral Agent that:

 

 

(a) Debtor is a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of California;

 

(b) Debtor’s exact legal name, jurisdictions of registration (i.e., incorporation or formation), and chief executive office is set forth in the Secured Note and below its name on the signature pages hereto.

 

9. Covenants. During the term of this Agreement, Debtor shall:

 

(a) Take all steps to preserve and protect the Collateral;

 

(b) Pay or cause to be paid when due all taxes, assessments, and other charges relating to the Collateral or this Agreement and reimburse the Collateral Agent for all costs of and fees incurred in connection with any filing of the documents and instruments referred to in Section 5; and

 

 
3

 

 

(c) Not change its: (i) name; (ii) chief executive office; (iii) type of organization; (iv) jurisdiction of organization; or (v) other legal structure without at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Collateral Agent. Prior to effectuating any change described in the preceding sentence, Debtor shall take or cause to be taken all actions deemed by the Collateral Agent to be necessary or desirable to prevent any financing or continuation statement from becoming seriously misleading or rendered ineffective, or the security interests granted herein from becoming unperfected or the relative priority thereof otherwise impaired, as a result of such removal or change.

 

10. Further Assurances and Protections.

 

(a) Debtor shall at its expense do, file, record, make, execute, and deliver all such acts, notices, instruments, statements, or other documents as the Collateral Agent may request in writing to perfect, preserve, or otherwise protect the security interest and Liens of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral or any part thereof or to give effect to the rights, powers, and remedies of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement;

 

(b) Debtor will give prompt written notice to the Collateral Agent of, and defend the Collateral against, any suit, action, or proceeding related to the Collateral or which could adversely affect the security interests and Liens granted hereunder; and

 

(c) Debtor authorizes Collateral Agent to have this or any other similar agreement recorded or filed with any applicable federal, state or foreign government office.

 

11. Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following events or conditions shall constitute an event of default (each an “Event of Default”) under this Agreement:

 

(a) the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default as defined in any of the Secured Notes;

 

(b) any representation or warranty made in this Agreement, any Secured Note or any written statement pursuant hereto or thereto or any other report, financial statement or certificate made or delivered to the Collateral Agent shall be untrue or incorrect in any material respect as of the date when made or deemed made; or

 

(c) the failure or refusal by Debtor to perform, or the breach or violation of, any of any materials terms, obligations, covenants, or warranties of this Agreement and that failure or refusal continues unremedied for five (5) business days after written notice of such failure or refusal is given to Debtor.

 

12. Remedies upon an Event of Default. On and after the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may, in its discretion, assert all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not in effect in any applicable jurisdiction) and all other applicable law. The proceeds of any collection, liquidation, or other disposition of the Collateral shall be applied by the Collateral Agent first to the payment of all expenses (including, without limitation, all fees, taxes, attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with retaking, holding, collecting, or liquidating the Collateral. The balance of such proceeds, if any, shall, to the extent permitted by law, be applied to the payment of the Obligations in the order of application set forth in Section 27 of this Agreement. In case of any deficiency, Debtor shall, whether or not then due, remain liable therefor. If notice prior to disposition of the Collateral or any portion thereof is necessary under applicable law, written notice mailed to Debtor at its notice address specified on the signature page hereof fourteen (14) business days prior to the date of such disposition shall constitute commercially reasonable notice. Without precluding any other methods of sale or other disposition, the sale or other disposition of the Collateral or any portion thereof shall have been made in a commercially reasonable manner if conducted in conformity with commercial practices of creditors disposing of similar property; but in any event the Collateral Agent may sell, lease, deliver, grant options to purchase or otherwise retain, liquidate or dispose such Collateral on such terms and to such purchaser(s) (including the Collateral Agent or any Secured Note Holder) as the Collateral Agent in its absolute discretion may choose, and for cash or for credit or for future delivery, without assuming any credit risk, at public or private sale or other disposition without demand of performance, and without any obligation to advertise or give notice of any kind other than that necessary under applicable law. Debtor hereby waives and releases to the fullest extent permitted by law any right or equity of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale or other disposition hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling the Collateral and any other security for the Obligations or otherwise. At any such sale or other disposition, unless prohibited by applicable law, the Collateral Agent and the Secured Note Holders may bid for and purchase all or any part of the Collateral so sold free from any such right or equity of redemption. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for failure to collect or realize upon any or all of the Collateral or for any delay in so doing nor shall it be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto.

 

 
4

 

 

The Collateral Agent shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale pursuant to this Agreement. Debtor hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Obligations, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree.

 

Debtor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the relevant Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Debtor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Collateral for the period of time necessary to enable the registration of the Collateral or related transaction so as to permit a public offer to be made with respect thereto.

 

13. Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Without limiting any rights or powers granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement, applicable law or otherwise, Debtor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in the place and stead of Debtor and in the name of Debtor or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agent’s discretion to take any and all action and to execute, file and record any and all instruments, agreements, and documents which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and to receive, endorse and collect all instruments made or payable to Debtor representing any Proceeds in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same. The appointment set forth in this Section 13 is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

 

14. Collateral Agent May Perform. If Debtor fails to perform any agreement, covenant, or obligation contained herein, the Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of such agreement, covenant or obligation and the expenses and costs of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Debtor.

 

 
5

 

 

15. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Collateral Agent and all Liens hereunder, and all obligations of Debtor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

 

(a) lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any Secured Note;

 

(b) any change in the time, manner, or place of payment of, or in any other term of any or all of the Obligations or any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any Secured Note;

 

(c) any release or non-perfection of any portion of the Collateral or any exchange, release, or non-perfection of any other collateral, or any release, amendment, or waiver of any guaranty for all or any of the Obligations; or

 

(d) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of Debtor in respect of the Obligations or this Agreement or any Secured Note.

 

16. Collateral Agent’s Duties. The powers conferred to the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect the Collateral Agent’s interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers except for the safe custody of any Collateral or any portion thereof in its possession, and the Collateral Agent shall exercise that standard of care with respect to the Collateral in its possession which it exercises in the administration of its own assets and property; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted with respect to the Collateral or this Agreement unless such liability results solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. The Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to the Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against other parties or any other rights pertaining to the Collateral.

 

17. Rights Cumulative. The rights, powers, and remedies of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement shall be in addition to all rights, powers, and remedies given to the Collateral Agent by virtue of any statute or rule of law or any agreement, all of which rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised successively or concurrently without impairing the Collateral Agent’s security interest, Lien, and assignment in the Collateral.

 

18. Indemnity and Expenses.

 

(a) The Collateral Agent shall not have any liability to any Person and shall be indemnified and held harmless by Debtor for any liability incurred by reason of taking or refraining from taking any action with respect to the Collateral, except in the case such liability results solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Debtor agrees to indemnify the Collateral Agent from and against any and all claims, losses, and liabilities arising out of or connected with this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement), except such claims, losses, or liabilities resulting solely from the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 18(a) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

 

 
6

 

 

(b) Debtor agrees to pay all expenses, costs, and disbursements incurred by the Collateral Agent (including, without limitation, all attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection therewith) in connection with (i) retaking, holding, collecting, preparing for sale, and selling or otherwise realizing upon, liquidating, or disposing of the Collateral, (ii) the enforcement of its rights hereunder upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (iii) the performance by the Collateral Agent of any agreement, covenant, or obligation of Debtor contained herein that Debtor has failed or refused to perform, and (iv) the participation or other involvement of the Collateral Agent and any Secured Note Holder with (A) bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, foreclosure, winding up, or liquidation proceedings, or any actual or attempted sale, or any exchange, enforcement, collection, compromise, or settlement in respect of any of the Collateral, and for the care of the Collateral and defending or asserting rights and claims of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Note Holders in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise, including expenses of insurance, (B) judicial or regulatory proceedings, and (C) workout, restructuring, or other negotiations or proceedings (whether or not the workout, restructuring or transaction contemplated thereby is consummated).

 

19. Amendment or Waiver. Neither this Agreement nor any terms hereof may be changed, waived, discharged, or terminated unless such change, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by the Company and the Collateral Agent.

 

20. Notices. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and mailed or delivered: if to Debtor, at the addresses specified immediately below Debtor’s name on the signature page hereof; and if to the Collateral Agent at its address specified immediately below its name on the signature page hereof; or at such other address as shall be designated by any party in a written notice to the other parties hereto. All such notices and communications shall be deemed effectively given: (a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) when sent by confirmed electronic mail or facsimile if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, if not, then on the next business day, (c) five (5) days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (d) one (1) day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt.

 

21. No Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of the Collateral Agent in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under the UCC or any other applicable law shall operate as a waiver hereof or thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power, or privilege hereunder or under the UCC or any other applicable law preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. No notice to or demand on the Collateral Agent in any case shall entitle Debtor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Collateral Agent to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

 

22. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of that prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

23. Non-Assignment. Debtor shall not have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations hereunder or any part thereof to any other person without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent. This Agreement shall be binding upon any successors or assigns of Debtor, and shall benefit any successors or assigns of the Collateral Agent.

 

24. Integration. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all oral statements and prior writings with respect thereto.

 

25. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles.

 

 
7

 

 

26. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. A facsimile, telecopy or other reproduction of this Agreement may be executed by one or more parties to this Agreement, and an executed copy of this Agreement may be delivered by one or more parties to this Agreement by facsimile or similar electronic transmission device (including signature via DocuSign or similar services) pursuant to which the signature of or on behalf of such party can be seen, and such execution and delivery shall be considered valid, binding and effective for all purposes.

 

27. Collateral Agent.

 

(a) By execution and delivery of this Agreement or by acceptance of this Agreement after the date hereof, each Secured Note Holder hereby appoints (i) the Collateral Agent to hold the Liens granted in this Agreement and to exercise all of the rights and powers granted to the Collateral Agent in this Agreement and all other rights which are reasonably incidental thereto, in each case for the benefit of itself and the Secured Note Holders, and (ii) the Collateral Agent as its agent for the purposes of creating and perfecting its interest in the Collateral. The Collateral Agent hereby accepts such appointment by the Secured Note Holders. All items of Collateral and any interest therein to be delivered to or held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be held by the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of itself and the Secured Note Holders. The Secured Note Holders acknowledge and agree that any right, remedy, privilege or power under this Agreement shall be exercised by the Collateral Agent only. Debtor may conclusively and absolutely rely, without inquiry, upon any action of the Collateral Agent in all matters referred to in this Agreement and the Secured Note Holders confirm all that the Collateral Agent shall do or cause to be done by virtue of its appointment as Collateral Agent.

 

(b) The Collateral Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for any action taken or omitted by it as such hereunder to the maximum extent permitted by law. The duties of the Collateral Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature. The Collateral Agent shall not have, by reason of this Agreement or otherwise, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any of the Secured Note Holders; and nothing is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Collateral Agent any obligations in respect of the Collateral except as expressly set forth herein.

 

(c) The Collateral Agent shall be reimbursed by the Secured Note Holders for all of its expenses incurred in performing its duties hereunder. To the extent Debtor fails to make any payments to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 18 of this Agreement, the Secured Note Holders agree that such payments shall be satisfied from the proceeds of liquidation of the Collateral prior to distributions to be made to the Secured Note Holders pursuant to this Section. If, after such application, amounts owed to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 18 of this Agreement remain unpaid, each Secured Note Holder hereby agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent for such unpaid amounts ratably in accordance with such Secured Note Holder’s Applicable Percentage. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Secured Note Holders agree to reimburse the Collateral Agent promptly upon demand, ratably in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages, for any out-of-pocket expenses, including, without limitation, outside counsel fees and allocated in-house counsel expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with the performance of this Agreement.

 

(d) Independently and without reliance upon the Collateral Agent, each Secured Note Holder, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the shareholders of Debtor, and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Debtor, and the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Secured Note Holder with any credit or other information with respect thereto. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible to any Secured Note Holder for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectability, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement or the Collateral or the financial condition of Debtor or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement.

 

 
8

 

 

(e) Prior to receipt of a written notice from a Secured Note Holder that an Event of Default has occurred (“Notice of Default”), the Collateral Agent shall have the power, but not the obligation, to take such actions as the Collateral Agent in its discretion deems necessary or desirable to perfect, preserve, or otherwise protect the security interest and Liens in the Collateral or any part thereof, without the consent of the Secured Note Holders. After a Notice of Default has been received by the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent shall take such actions under this Agreement as may be directed by the Secured Note Holders or by a final order, decree or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction and from which no appeal has been taken and as to which the time the right to appeal has expired. Except as set forth in Section 27(i), the Collateral Agent shall be required to act or not act upon the instructions of the Secured Note Holders, and those instructions shall be binding upon the Collateral Agent.

 

(f) All proceeds of the Collateral shall be applied as follows:

 

(i) first, to the payment of all fees and expenses (including, without limitation, all fees, taxes, attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with retaking, holding, collecting, or liquidating the Collateral, until paid in full;

 

(ii) second, to payment of all fees, expenses, indemnities and other amounts owed to the Collateral Agent under Sections 18 or 27(c) or otherwise under this Agreement, until paid in full;

 

(iii) third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, expenses and indemnities owed to the Secured Note Holders, ratably among the Secured Note Holders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause third payable to them;

 

(iv) fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting interest owed to the Secured Note Holders, ratably among the Secured Note Holders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause fourth payable to them, until paid in full;

 

(v) fifth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Secured Notes, ratably among the Secured Note Holders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause fifth held by them, until paid in full;

 

(vi) sixth, to pay any other Obligations owed to the Collateral Agent or the Secured Note Holders, ratably among the Collateral Agent and the Secured Note Holders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause sixth payable to them, until paid in full;

 

(vii) last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to Debtor or as otherwise required by law.

 

In the event any proceeds of Collateral are deposited with or under the control of a Secured Note Holder or if a Secured Note Holder receives more of the proceeds of Collateral than it is entitled to under this Section 27(f), such Secured Note Holder shall pay over such proceeds to the Collateral Agent for application to the Obligations as provided in this Section 27(f).

 

 
9

 

 

(g) The Collateral Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Secured Note Holders and Debtor. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Secured Note Holders shall have the right to appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Secured Note Holders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Collateral Agent gives notice of its resignation, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Note Holders, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Collateral Agent shall instead be made by or to each Secured Note Holder directly, until such time as the Secured Note Holders appoint a successor Collateral Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). After the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Collateral Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Collateral Agent.

 

(h) The Collateral Agent shall use reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in the Collateral Agent’s possession. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for (i) any action taken or omitted by it in its discretion under or in connection with this Agreement, or any other applicable document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction) or (ii) any action taken or omitted by it at the request of the Secured Note Holders.

 

(i) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other agreement or document, express or implied, it is agreed that (i) the Collateral Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, (ii) the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Collateral Agent to liability or that is contrary to applicable law; (iii) the Collateral Agent may consult with legal counsel or independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall be entitled to fully rely upon any opinion of such counsel or accountant in connection with any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; and (iv) the Collateral Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Collateral Agent.

 

(j) The provisions of this Section 27 are solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Note Holders, and Debtor shall not have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

Eagle shall not have any liability to any Person and shall be indemnified and held harmless by Hawkeye and Debtor for any liability incurred by reason of taking or refraining from taking any action with respect to the Collateral, except in the case such liability results solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Eagle as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.

17. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of that prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other jurisdiction.
