ITEM 2.03 CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION OR AN OBLIGATION UNDER A OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENT OF A REGISTRANT

 

On September 2, 2021, Nevada Canyon Gold Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”, or the “Borrower”), began selling up to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) worth of convertible promissory notes (each, a “Note”, and collectively, the “Notes”) due twelve (12) months after issuance (the “Maturity Date”) to accredited investors only (the “Holders”). The Notes will accrue interest at a rate of 15% per annum. At the option of the Holder, the Borrower may either (i) pay the interest quarterly in arrears, or (ii) allow the interest to accrue until the Maturity Date. In addition, at the Borrower’s sole discretion, the Borrower may either (i) repay the principal amount of the Notes on the Maturity Date, or (ii) commencing 1 month from the issue date, the Borrower may repay 1/12 of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes in any given month until the Maturity Date. One hundred eighty (180) days following the date of funding and thereafter, the Notes shall be convertible into common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”). The Notes shall be convertible at the option of the Holder(s) into Shares of common stock of the Company (the “Shares”) at a conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) $0.375 per Share, or (ii) a 25% discount to the price per Share in a Qualified Public Offering. The term “Qualified Public Offering” shall mean a debt or equity offering that occurs subsequent to the sale of the Notes in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 that results in gross offering proceeds to the Company of at least Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000). The Holder(s) will be limited to converting to a number of Shares of Common Stock that shall not exceed 4.99% of the issued and outstanding Shares of the Company at time of conversion at any one time. The foregoing summary of terms is being made subject, at all times, to the terms and conditions of the Convertible Note and Subscription Agreement attached hereto as Exhibits 10.08, 10.09, which are incorporated herein by this reference.

c) Reliance on Note Register. Prior to due presentment for transfer to Borrower of this Note, Borrower and any agent of Borrower may treat the Person in whose name this Note is duly registered on the Note Register as the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment as herein provided and for all other purposes, whether or not this Note is overdue, and neither Borrower nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

Section 4. Conversion.

 

a) Voluntary Conversion. At any time after the Original Issue Date until this Note is no longer outstanding, this Note shall be convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of Common Stock at the option of the Holder, at any time and from time to time (subject to the conversion limitations set forth in Section 4(d) hereof). The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to Borrower a Notice of Conversion, the form of which is attached hereto as Annex A (each, a “Notice of Conversion”), specifying therein the principal and/or accrued interest amount of this Note to be converted and the date on which such conversion shall be effected (such date, the “Conversion Date”). If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion is deemed delivered hereunder. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to Borrower unless the entire principal and accrued interest amount of this Note has been so converted. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this Note in an amount equal to the applicable conversion. The Holder and Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount(s) converted and the date of such conversion(s). Borrower may deliver an objection to any Notice of Conversion within one (1) Business Day of delivery of such Notice of Conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. The Holder, and any assignee by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

 

b) Conversion Price. The Note shall be convertible at the option of the Holder into shares of common stock of the Borrower at a conversion price equal to the lesser of (1) $0.375 per share, or (2) a 25% discount to the price per share of the common stock in a Qualified Offering. The term “Qualified Offering” shall mean a debt or equity offering that occurs subsequent to the date of the closing of the offering described in the Subscription Agreement that results in gross offering proceeds to the Borrower of at least Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (the “Conversion Price”). The Borrower reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to automatically convert all or a part of this Note in the event of a Qualified Offering at the price per share listed in Section 4(b)(2) above without approval by the Holder. If, at any time during the twelve-month period subsequent to the date of this Note, the Borrower sells shares of common stock at a price that is less than $0.375 per share, or issues convertible debt with a conversion price below $0.375 per share (a “Down Round”), the Conversion Price shall be adjusted to the Down Round price per share. It is understood, agreed and acknowledged by the Holder, that any sales of common stock, or convertible debt, subsequent to the initial Down Round, at a price per share, or conversion price, below $0.375 per share, will not result in an additional Down Round Conversion Price adjustment, meaning that there shall be only one Down Round Conversion Price adjustment for the initial Down Round.

 

c) Mechanics of Conversion.

 

i. Conversion Shares Issuable Upon Conversion of Principal Amount. The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal and/or interest amount of this Note to be converted by (y) the Conversion Price.

 

 
 

 

ii. Delivery of Certificate Upon Conversion. Not later than three (3) Trading Days after each Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery Date”), Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Conversion Shares which, on or after the earlier of (i) the twelve month anniversary of the Original Issue Date or (ii) the Effective Date, shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions (other than those which may then be required by the Subscription Agreement) representing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion of this Note. On or after the earlier of (i) the twelve-month anniversary of the Original Issue Date or (ii) the Effective Date, Borrower shall use its best efforts to deliver any certificate or certificates required to be delivered by Borrower under this Section 4(c) electronically through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions.

 

iii. Failure to Deliver Certificates. If, in the case of any Notice of Conversion, such certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by the applicable Holder by the Share Delivery Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to Borrower at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates, to rescind such Conversion, in which event Borrower shall promptly return to the Holder any original Note delivered to Borrower and the Holder shall promptly return to Borrower the Common Stock certificates issued to such Holder pursuant to the rescinded Conversion Notice.

 

iv. Obligation Absolute. Borrower’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to Borrower or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of Borrower to the Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided, however, that such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by Borrower of any such action Borrower may have against the Holder. In the event the Holder of this Note shall elect to convert any or all of the outstanding principal and/or accrued interest amount hereof, Borrower may not refuse conversion based on any claim that the Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with the Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Holder, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or part of this Note shall have been sought and obtained. In the absence of such injunction, Borrower shall issue Conversion Shares or, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8 hereof for Borrower’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and the Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.

 

v. Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. Borrower covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Note as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder, not less than such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock as shall (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Subscription Agreement) be issuable (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 5) upon the conversion of the then outstanding principal amount of this Note on such principal amount. Borrower covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

 

vi. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of this Note. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, Borrower shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share.

 

vii. Transfer Taxes and Expenses. The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the Holder hereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificates, provided that, Borrower shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder of this Note so converted and Borrower shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to Borrower the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of Borrower that such tax has been paid. Holder shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Conversion.

 

 
 

 

d) Holder’s Conversion Limitations. Borrower shall not effect any conversion of this Note, and a Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note, to the extent that after giving effect to the conversion set forth on the applicable Notice of Conversion, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted principal amount of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation, any other Notes) beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 4(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 4(d) applies, the determination of whether this Note is convertible (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which principal amount of this Note is convertible shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Note may be converted (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and which principal amount of this Note is convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. To ensure compliance with this restriction, the Holder will be deemed to represent to Borrower each time it delivers a Notice of Conversion that such Notice of Conversion has not violated the restrictions set forth in this paragraph and Borrower shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 4(d), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) Borrower’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by Borrower, or (iii) a more recent written notice by Borrower or Borrower’s transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, Borrower shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of Borrower, including this Note, by the Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note held by the Holder. The Holder may decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation at any time and the Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to Borrower, may increase the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 4(d), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note held by the Holder and the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 4(d) shall continue to apply. Any such increase will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to Borrower. The Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 4(d) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Note.

 

Section 5. Certain Adjustments.

 

a) Stock Dividends and Stock Splits. If Borrower, at any time while this Note is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by Borrower upon conversion of the Note), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (iv) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of the Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of Borrower, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of Borrower) outstanding immediately before such event, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

 
 

 

b) Pro Rata Distributions. During such time as this Note is outstanding, if Borrower shall declare or make any dividend whether or not permitted, or makes any other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Note, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Note (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

 

c) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Note is outstanding, (i) Borrower, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of Borrower with or into another Person, (ii) Borrower, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by Borrower or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock, (iv) Borrower, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, (v) Borrower, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person whereby such other Person acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Note, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 4(d) on the conversion of this Note), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of Borrower, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Note is convertible immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 4(c) on the conversion of this Note). For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one (1) share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and Borrower shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Note following such Fundamental Transaction. Borrower shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which Borrower is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of Borrower under this Note and the Subscription Agreement in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5(d) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the holder of this Note, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Note a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Note which is convertible for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon conversion of this Note (without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Note) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with a conversion price which applies the conversion price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such conversion price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Note immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Note and the Subscription Agreement referring to the “Company” or the “Borrower” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of Borrower and shall assume all of the obligations of Borrower under this Note and the Subscription Agreement with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as Borrower herein.

 

 
 

 

d) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 5 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 5, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of Borrower) issued and outstanding.

 

e) Notice to the Holder.

In the event of any such attempt to repay the Note, the Borrower shall provide the Holder with three days’ prior written notice of Borrower’s intention to repay all or a portion of the Note, and the Holder shall have the right to convert all or a portion of the Note prior to the date of any such prepayment pursuant to the conversion provisions set forth in Section 4 of this Note (“Optional Redemption”).

(h) Suitability of Investment. Subscriber has evaluated the merits and risks of Subscriber’s proposed investment in the Company, including those risks particular to Subscriber’s situation, and has determined that this investment is suitable for Subscriber.

(i) Absence of Official Evaluation. Subscriber understands that neither the securities regulatory agencies of any State, nor the United States Securities and Exchange Commission has made any finding or determination as to the fairness of the terms of an investment in the Company, or any recommendation for, or endorsement of, the Securities offered hereby.

 

(j) Restricted Securities. The Subscriber understands that the Securities are illiquid and are characterized as “restricted securities” under Rule 144(a)(3) under the Act as the Securities are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that, under such laws and applicable regulations, such securities may only be resold without registration under the Act in certain limited circumstances. Accordingly, the Subscriber:

 

(i) Agrees that if it decides to offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer any of the Securities it will not offer, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer any of such securities, directly or indirectly, unless (1) the transfer is to the Company, or a subsidiary thereof (though the Company or its subsidiaries are under no obligation to purchase any such Securities); or (2) the transfer is made outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S, if available, and in compliance with applicable local laws and regulations; or (3) the transfer is made in compliance with an exemption from registration under the Act provided by Rule 144 or Rule 144A thereunder, if available, and in accordance with applicable state securities laws; or (4) in another transaction that does not require registration under the Act or any applicable state securities laws, and the holder of the Securities has furnished to the Company an opinion of counsel of recognized standing in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company to such effect; or (5) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act, and in each case in compliance with applicable state securities laws.

 

(ii) Acknowledges that he/she/it is familiar with Rule 144(a)(3), as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Act and, without in any way limiting the representations set forth in this Section 2, the Subscriber agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Securities unless there is then in effect a registration statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement; or the Subscriber shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and, if reasonably requested by the Company, the Subscriber shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not require registration of the Securities under the Act.

 

 
 

 

(iii) Understands the Securities will be subject to certain resale restrictions and the Subscriber agrees to comply with such restrictions. The Subscriber acknowledges that it has been advised to consult its own legal advisors with respect to applicable resale restrictions and that it is solely responsible (and the Company is not in any manner responsible) for complying with such restrictions. The Securities and all certificates issued in exchange or in substitution thereof, shall bear the following (or a similar) legend for the purposes of complying with the Act, until such time as the same is no longer required under applicable requirements of the Act or applicable state securities laws:

 

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) OR UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ONLY (A) TO NEVADA CANYON GOLD CORP. (THE “COMPANY”), (B) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATION S, IF AVAILABLE, (C) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT PROVIDED BY (i) RULE 144 OR (ii) 144A UNDER THE ACT, IF AVAILABLE, AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE U.S. STATE SECURITIES LAWS, (D) IN COMPLIANCE WITH ANOTHER EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (E) UNDER AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT PROVIDED THAT IN THE CASE OF TRANSFERS PURSUANT TO (C)(i) OR (D) ABOVE, A LEGAL OPINION REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY MUST FIRST BE PROVIDED TO THE COMPANY OR THE COMPANY’S TRANSFER AGENT, AS APPLICABLE, TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. HEDGING TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE CONDUCTED UNLESS IN COMPLIANCE WITH U.S. SECURITIES LAWS;

 

provided that, if any Securities are being sold under Rule 144 under the Act, the legend may be removed by delivering to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent, as applicable, an opinion of counsel of recognized standing reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that the legend is no longer required under applicable requirements of the Act or state securities laws;

 

(iv) Understands and agrees that if the Company is ever deemed to be, or to have been at any time previously, an issuer with no or nominal operations and no or nominal assets other than cash and cash equivalents, Rule 144 under the Act may not be available for re-sales of the Securities and (ii) the Company is not obligated to take, and has no present intention of taking, any action to make Rule 144 under the Act (or any other exemption) available for re-sales of the Securities.

 

(v) Consents to the Company making a notation on its records or giving instruction to the registrar and transfer agent of the Company, if applicable, in order to implement the restrictions on transfer set forth and described herein.

 

(k) Additional Financing. Subscriber further acknowledges that nothing hereunder shall preclude the Company from seeking and/or procuring additional equity and/or debt financing. Subscriber understands that it may become necessary for the Company to seek additional financing in the future, which could dilute the Subscriber’s interest in the Company.

 

(l) Professional Advice. Subscriber has either secured independent tax advice with respect to an investment in the Securities, upon which he, she or it is relying, or he, she or it is sufficiently familiar with the income taxation of corporations and investments that he, she or it deemed such independent advice to be unnecessary. To the extent necessary, Subscriber has retained, at his/her/its own personal expense, and relied upon, appropriate professional advice regarding the technical, investment, tax, and legal merits and consequences of this Agreement and purchasing and owning the Securities. The Subscriber is not, in any way, relying on the Company or its officers, directors, attorneys, accountants, employees or agents, for advice in making this decision.

 

 
 

 

(m) Acceptance. Subscriber acknowledges that the Company shall, in its sole discretion, have the right to accept or reject this subscription, in whole or in part, for any reason or for no reason.
