Overview

 

On January 21, 2022 (the “Initial Closing Date”), Indonesia Energy Corporation Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), closed an initial $5.0 million tranche (the “First Tranche”) of a total anticipated $7.0 million private placement with L1 Capital Global Opportunities Master Fund, Ltd. (the “Investor”) pursuant to the terms of Securities Purchase Agreement, dated January 21, 2022, between the Company and the Investor (the “Purchase Agreement”).

 

In connection with the closing of the First Tranche, the Company issued to the Investor (i) a 6% Original Issuance Discount Senior Convertible Note in a principal amount of up to $7,000,000.00 (as described further below, the “Note”) and (ii) a five year Ordinary Share Purchase Warrant (the “Initial Warrant”) to purchase up to 383,620 ordinary shares of the Company (the “Ordinary Shares”) at an exercise price of $6.00 per share, subject to adjustment as described below.

 

Within two (2) trading days of the declaration of effectiveness of the Registration Statement (as defined below), and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, a second tranche of funding under the Note (the “Second Tranche”) shall be provided by the Investor in the principal amount of $2,000,000 (subject to potential reduction as described below). Such principal amount, if funded, will be added to the principal amount of the Note, and the Investor will be entitled to receive an additional Ordinary Share Purchase Warrant (carrying the same terms as the Initial Warrant) (the “Second Warrant” and collectively with the Initial Warrant, the “Warrants”) to purchase up to 153,450 Ordinary Shares, if the full amount of the Second Tranche is funded, at an exercise price of $6.00 per share, subject to adjustment as described below.

 

The amount of the Second Tranche, and the corresponding number of Ordinary Shares underlying the Second Warrant, is subject to reduction if the principal amount of the Note (after funding the Second Tranche) would be less than 25% of the then current market capitalization of the Company at that time.

 

EF Hutton, division of Benchmark Investment, LLC, acted as exclusive placement agent for the offering and received customary fees.

 

Terms of the Purchase Agreement

 

The terms of the Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, indemnification, and other covenants of the Company and the Investor, as well as the following material terms:

 

Registration Rights. No later than 30 business days from the Initial Closing Date, the Company shall prepare and file a Registration Statement (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) covering the resale of all of the Ordinary Shares underlying the Note and the Warrants. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after filing thereof but in no event later than the date that is (i) 60 days following the Initial Closing Date if the Registration Statement is not subject to review by the SEC or (ii) 90 days following the Initial Closing Date if the Registration Statement is subject to review by the SEC. The Company has also granted the Investor certain “piggyback” registration rights with respect to the Ordinary Shares underlying the Note and the Warrants. The Company will pay all fees and expenses incident to such registrations, excluding discounts, commissions, fees of underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers or similar securities industry professionals with respect to the shares being sold.

Repayment on Future Financings. If the Company issues any debt, including any subordinated debt or convertible debt (other than the Note), then the Investor will have the option to cause the Company to immediately utilize 30% of the aggregate proceeds of such issuance to repay the Note. In addition, if the Company issues any equity interests for cash as part of a financing transaction (other than in connection with an “at the market” funding program), then the Investor will have the option to cause the Company to direct 30% of such proceeds from such issuance to repay the Note.

 

Leak Out. Subject to certain exceptions, and provided no Event of Default (as defined below) has occurred, the Investor shall uses its best efforts in any month not to offer, sell, agree to offer or sell, solicit offers to purchase, grant any call option or purchase any put option with respect to, or pledge, encumber, assign, borrow or otherwise dispose of Ordinary Shares underlying the Note and the Warrants at less than $6.00 per share in an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of (i) $750,000, or (ii) 40% of the average trading volume of the Ordinary Shares in the preceding month.

 

Prohibited Transactions. The Company shall not (without the prior written consent of the Investor): (i) enter into any financing transactions that qualify as “variable rate transactions” until thirty (30) days after such time as the Note has been repaid in full and/or has been fully converted into Ordinary Shares or (ii) utilize any “at the market” offering program in respect of its Ordinary Shares in the thirty (30) day period following any date that the Company has made payments under the Note in the form of Ordinary Shares.

 

No Repricing.

As long as the Investor owns the Notes, the Warrants or the Ordinary Shares underlying the Note and the Warrants, the Company (i) will timely file all reports required to be filed by the Company pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and (ii) if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to the Exchange Act, it will prepare and furnish to such Investor and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) such information as is required for such Investor to sell its Company securities under Rule 144.

 

Share Reserve. The Company shall at all times keep authorized and reserved and available for issuance, free of preemptive rights, a number of Ordinary Shares equal to two times the Ordinary Shares underlying the Note (based on an assumed conversion at the Floor Price, as defined below) and the Warrants (the “Required Share Reserve”).

 

Termination. The Purchase Agreement shall be subject to termination: (i) if trading in securities generally in the United States has been suspended or limited for a consecutive period of greater than three (3) business days, or (ii) a banking moratorium has been declared by the United States or the New York State authorities and is continuing for a consecutive period of greater than three (3) business days or (iii) a change of control of the Company (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

Terms of the Note

 

Seniority; Subsidiary Guarantee. The obligations of the Company under the Note shall rank senior to all other existing indebtedness and equity of the Company. The Note is unsecured, but the Company’s payment obligations under the Note have been guaranteed by WJ Energy Group Limited, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, pursuant to a subsidiary guarantee in favor of the Investor (the “Subsidiary Guarantee”).

 

Original Issuance Discount; Second Tranche Closing. The Note carries a 6.0% original issue discount, resulting in proceeds before expenses to the Company for the First Tranche of approximately $4,700,000. If the full amount of the Second Tranche is funded, after taking into consideration the 6.0% original issue discount, the proceeds before expenses to the Company from the Second Tranche would be approximately $1,880,000. Among other conditions precedent to the Second Tranche, the Investor shall not be obligated to fund the Second Tranche if the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the SEC within 120 days from the Initial Closing Date. As described above, the amount of the Second Tranche is subject to reduction (and could be no amount) based on the then market capitalization of the Company.

 

Maturity; Voluntary Conversion. The Note has an 18-month maturity and a fixed conversion price of $6.00 per Ordinary Share for voluntary conversions of the Note, subject to “full ratchet” price based anti-dilution adjustments for future issuances of Ordinary Shares by the Company (subject to certain exceptions) and customary share-based adjustments for stock splits and the like.

 

Monthly Installment Payments. Beginning 120 days after the Initial Closing Date, the Company is required to commence monthly installment payments of the Note through maturity (or 14 payments) (“Monthly Payments”), which Monthly Payments may be made, at the Company’s election, in cash or Ordinary Shares (or a combination of cash and Ordinary Shares), with such Ordinary Shares being issued at a valuation equal to the lesser of: (i) $6.00 per share or (ii) 90% of the average of the two lowest closing bid prices of the Ordinary Shares for the ten (10) consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately prior to the payment date (the “Market Price”), with a floor price of $1.20 per share (which floor price may be waived by the Company, but not the Investor, under certain circumstances) (the “Floor Price”). The Company shall not be permitted to make Monthly Payments under the Note in Ordinary Shares if certain equity conditions are not met, including (i) an Event of Default (as defined below) has not occurred; (ii) the Ordinary Shares shall be registered pursuant to an effective Registration Statement; (iii) no change of control of the Company has been announced; (iv) the Ordinary Shares are then listed on a national stock exchange and (iv) the average daily trading volume for the Ordinary Shares on the principal trading market for the Ordinary Shares for the 10 consecutive trading days prior to the applicable payment date exceeds 50% of the amount of Ordinary Shares that is proposed to be paid by the Company in respect of such Monthly Payment. If the market price of the Ordinary Shares decreases in the 10 days following a Monthly Payment made in Ordinary Shares, the Investor will be entitled to receive an amount in additional Ordinary Shares or in cash based on a formula to account for the decrease in the share price. The Investor has the right, at its sole option, to defer or accelerate up to four (4) Monthly Payments or any portion of a Monthly Payment.

 

Prepayment; Change of Control Payment. Subject to certain conditions precedent, the Note may be prepaid by the Company at any time with a prepayment premium equal to ten percent (10%) of the principal amount of the Note. In addition, if the Company enters into a definitive agreement with respect to a change of control of the Company, the Investor shall have the right to require the Company to prepay the Note with a five percent (5%) payment premium.

 

4

 

 

Events of Default. The Note is subject to customary events of default (each, an “Event of Default”), including, without limitation: (i) payment defaults; (ii) default in the performance by the Company of its obligations, or breach by the Company of its representations and warranties, under the Purchase Agreement, the Note or the Warrant; (iii) failure by the Company to maintain the Required Share Reserve; (iv) default by the Company under other indebtedness in excess of $500,000; (v) bankruptucy, liquidation and similar matters of or concerning the Company or its subsidiaries; (vi) delisting of the Ordinary Shares from a national exchange; (vii) consummation by the Company of a “going private” transaction; (viii) the conviction of certain key Company executives of a felony or the ability of such key executives to devote the full time to the Company for 120 days; and (ix) the occurrence of a material adverse effect in respect of the Company which would reasonably be considered to substantially impair the ability of the Company to satisfy its obligations in the Purchase Agreement, the Note or the Warrants.

 

Upon an Event of Default, in additional to other customary remedies, the Investor shall have the right to convert the Note into Ordinary Shares at 80% of the then Market Price.

 

Covenants. The Note contains certain affirmative and negative covenants, including that the Company shall maintain a cash balance of at least $1.0 million.

 

Terms of the Warrants

 

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on the Initial Closing Date, the Investor was issued the Initial Warrant to purchase up to 383,620 Ordinary Shares, exercisable at $6.00 per share for 5 years from the Initial Closing Date. If the full amount of the Second Tranche is funded, the Investor would be issued the Second Warrant to purchase up to 153,450 Ordinary Shares on the same terms as the Initial Warrant. The exercise price of the Warrants is subject to “full ratchet” price-based anti-dilution adjustments for future issuances of Ordinary Shares by the Company (subject to certain exceptions) and customary share-based adjustments for stock splits and the like. The Warrants are exercisable via “cashless” exercise if there is not an effective registration statement covering resale of the Ordinary Share under the Warrants.

Pursuant to the Overholtzer Second Amendment, the term of the Overholtzer Agreement was extended to December 31, 2023, unless terminated earlier pursuant to the terms of the Overholtzer Agreement.

Press Release

 

On January 24, 2021, the Company issued a press release announcing the entry into the Purchase Agreement and related matters. Such press release is being furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto, and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing of the Company under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference to this Form 6-K in such filing.

 

Corporate Governance and Shareholder Approval of Transaction

 

Although the Company is a “foreign private issuer”, the Company’s corporate governance practices generally do not differ from those followed by domestic companies listed on the NYSE American, other than as disclosed below or in the Company’s previously filed or future Forms 20-F.

 

Section 713(a) of the NYSE American Company Guide (the “Company Guide”) generally provides that a domestic issuer listed on the NYSE American is required to obtain shareholder approval in accordance with Section 705 of the Company Guide as a prerequisite to approval of applications to list additional shares when the additional shares will be issued in connection with a transaction (such as the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the Note and the Warrant) involving the sale, issuance, or potential issuance by the issuer of common shares (or securities convertible into common shares) equal to 20% or more of presently outstanding common shares for less than the greater of book or market value of the shares (the “20% Rule”).

 

Notwithstanding this general requirement, Section 110 of the Company Guide permits foreign private issuers to follow their home country practice rather than the shareholder approval requirements of the 20% Rule. The laws of the Cayman Islands (the Company’s domicile of incorporation) do not require shareholder approval prior to any of the foregoing types of issuances. The Company, therefore, is not required to obtain such shareholder approval prior to entering into a transaction with the potential to issue securities in contravention of the 20% Rule. Following the requirements of the Company Guide, the Company has elected to follow the Company’s home country rules with respect to such issuances and will not be required to seek shareholder approval of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the Note and the Warrants or similar financings in the future.

Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim, action, suit or proceeding with respect to which it seeks indemnification following such Person’s receipt of, or such Person otherwise become aware of, the commencement of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim, action, suit or proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided, however, that any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Person unless (A) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses, (B) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Person or (C) in the reasonable judgment of any such Person, based upon written advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between such Person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the Person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such Person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such Person); and provided, further, that the failure or delay of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure or delay to give notice shall materially adversely affect the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or litigation. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties. No indemnifying party will, except with the consent of the indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation.

 

28
 

 

(c) Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding paragraph (a) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient to hold it harmless, other than as expressly specified therein, the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act shall be entitled to contribution from any Person not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any other rights or remedies that any indemnified party may have under applicable law, by separate agreement or otherwise.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10 and applicable securities laws, if at any time prior to the first anniversary of the Closing, the Company proposes to offer or sell any New Securities, the Company shall first offer to the Investors the opportunity to purchase up to thirty percent (30%) of such New Securities.

10.2 By notification to the Company within five (5) days after the Offer Notice is given, each Investor may elect to purchase or otherwise acquire, at the price and on the terms specified in the Offer Notice, their Pro Rata Portion of up to thirty percent (30%) of such New Securities. “Pro Rata Portion” means the ratio of (x) Securities purchased on the Closing Date by an Investor participating under this Section 10.2 and (y) the sum of the aggregate Securities purchased on the Closing Date by all Investors participating under this 10.2.

If the Company does not enter into an agreement for the sale of the New Securities within such period, or if such agreement is not consummated within thirty (30) days of the execution thereof, the right provided hereunder shall be deemed to be revived and such New Securities shall not be offered unless first reoffered to the Investors in accordance with this Section 10.

 

29
 

  

10.4 The right of first offer in this Section 10 shall not be applicable to offers, issuances, sales or other transactions related to Exempted Securities, or any New Securities registered for sale under the 1933 Act.

Indonesia Energy Corporation Limited

 

Senior Convertible Promissory Note

 

Dated: January 21, 2022 (the “Issuance Date”) Up to $7,000,000.00

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Indonesia Energy Corporation Limited, a Cayman Islands limited company (hereinafter called the “Maker” or the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to the order of L1 Capital Global Opportunities Master Fund, Ltd., a Cayman Islands limited company, or registered assigns (the “Holder”) the principal sum of up to $7,000,000.00 (the “Principal Amount”) pursuant to the terms of this Senior Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”). The consideration to the Maker for this Note is up to $6,580,000.00 (the “Consideration”) in United States currency, due to the prorated original issuance discount of 6% (the “OID”) equaling up to $420,000.00. The Holder shall pay a first tranche of the Consideration (the “First Tranche”) equal to the First Tranche Amount (as defined herein) on the Closing Date. At the closing of the First Tranche (which shall occur on the Closing Date), the outstanding principal amount under this Note shall consist of the First Tranche Amount plus the applicable prorated portion of the OID.

 

The second tranche of Consideration (the “Second Tranche”) under this Note consisting of Second Tranche Amount (as defined herein) shall be payable by the Holder to the Company no later than the second (2nd) Trading Day following the date that a registration statement registering all of the Conversion Shares issuable under this Note and the Warrant Shares issuable under the Warrants shall have been declared effective; provided that (i) the Equity Conditions (as of the Trading Day immediately prior to date of funding of the Second Tranche) shall be met (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred, and (iii) the registration statement registering all of the Conversion Shares issuable under this Note and the Warrant Shares issuable under the Warrants shall have been declared effective within the time period specified in Section 9.1(c) of the Purchase Agreement (collectively, the “Second Tranche Conditions”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder shall have no obligation to fund the Second Tranche if the Second Tranche Conditions have not been met by the date that is 120 days from the Issuance Date. At the closing of the Second Tranche, the outstanding principal amount under this Note shall consist of the First Tranche Amount and the Second Tranche Amount plus the applicable prorated portion of the OID.

 

 

 

 

The maturity date of this Note for all shall be eighteen (18) months from the Issuance Date (the “Maturity Date”), and is the date upon which the Principal Amount, as well as the OID for each tranche, shall be due and payable. This Note may not be repaid in whole or in part except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein.

 

This Note may not be repaid in whole or in part except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein. This Note is unsecured.

 

All payments under or pursuant to this Note shall be made in United States Dollars in immediately available funds to the Holder at the address of the Holder set forth in the Purchase Agreement (as hereinafter defined) or at such other place as the Holder may designate from time to time in writing to the Maker or by wire transfer of funds to the Holder’s account designated in writing by Holder to the Maker.

 

1.1 Purchase Agreement; Subsidiary Guarantee. This Note has been executed and delivered pursuant to, and is one of the Notes issued pursuant to, the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 21, 2022 (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Maker, the other “Investors” (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) and the Holder. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth for such terms in the Purchase Agreement. The full amount of this Note and all the cash payment obligations of the Company under the Transaction Documents shall be guaranteed in full by the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, WJ Energy Group Limited, pursuant to a Guarantee, in a form attached as an exhibit to the Purchase Agreement.

 

1.2 Interest. Except as set forth in Section 2.2, this Note shall not bear interest.

 

1.3 Principal Installment Payments. Commencing on the day that is the four (4) month anniversary of the Issuance Date, the Maker shall pay to the Holder the Principal Amount hereunder in monthly installments, on such date and each one (1) month anniversary thereof (each, a “Payment Date”), a payment equal to one-fourteenth (1/14th) of the total Principal Amount (the “Monthly Payments”), until the Principal Amount has been paid in full prior to or on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, upon acceleration, conversion or redemption of this Note in accordance with the terms herein. The Maker and the Holder agree that all payments made under this Note, including the provisions of Section 1.3, shall be subject in all cases to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 2.4 thereof. The Monthly Payments shall be made in cash, in the amount of 102% of such Monthly Payment; provided, however, as to any Monthly Payment and upon no less than two (2) Trading Days’ prior written irrevocable notice (the “Monthly Payment Notice”), in lieu of a cash payment the Company may elect to pay all or part of a Monthly Payment in Conversion Shares based on a conversion price per share, subject to a floor of $1.20 per share (which floor price may be waived by the Company as expressly provided for herein, the “Floor Price”), equal to the lesser of (i) the then Conversion Price and (ii) 90% of the Market Price (subject to adjustment for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar event affecting the Ordinary Shares during the ten (10) Trading Day measuring period described in the definition of “Market Price” herein) (the price calculated during the applicable ten (10) Trading Day measuring period described in the definition of “Market Price” herein, the “Monthly Conversion Price” and such 10 Trading Day period, the “Monthly Conversion Period”); provided, that the Company may not pay the Monthly Payment in Conversion Shares unless (i) from the date the Holder receives the duly delivered Monthly Payment Notice through and until the date such Monthly Payment is paid in full, the Equity Conditions have been satisfied, unless waived in writing by the Holder, and (ii) the Market Price shall have been equal to or in excess of the Floor Price during the Monthly Conversion Period, unless the Company exercise a right, in its discretion, to waive the Floor Price. For the avoidance of doubt if the Company determines to waive the foregoing requirement that the Market Price be equal to or in excess of the Floor Price, and makes a Monthly Payment in the form of Ordinary Shares, the applicable conversion price per share shall be the lesser of (i) the then Conversion Price and (ii) 90% of the Market Price during the applicable Monthly Conversion Period, even if less than the Floor Price. The Holder may convert, pursuant to Section 3, any principal amount of this Note subject to a Monthly Payment at any time prior to the date that the Monthly Payment, plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and any other amounts then owing to the Holder are due and paid in full. Unless otherwise indicated by the Holder in the applicable Notice of Conversion, any principal amount of this Note converted during the applicable Monthly Conversion Period until the date the Monthly Payment is paid in full shall be first applied to the Principal Amount subject to the Monthly Payment payable in cash and then to the Monthly Payment payable in Conversion Shares. The Company covenants and agrees that it will honor all Conversion Notices tendered up until the amounts due hereunder are paid in full. The Company’s determination to pay a Monthly Payment in cash, Ordinary Shares or a combination thereof shall be applied ratably to all of the holders of the then outstanding Notes based on their (or their predecessor’s) initial purchases of Notes pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon three (3) Trading Days’ notice to the Company (the date of such notice, the “Monthly Payment Adjustment Notice Date”), the Holder may elect at its sole option, to defer or accelerate up to four (4) Monthly Payments or any portion of a Monthly Payment, to any Trading Day succeeding such Monthly Payment Adjustment Notice Date provided such date precedes the next Monthly Payment Date. In the event that the Holder elects to defer or accelerate any such Monthly Payments, to the extent applicable, the procedures set forth in this Section 1.3 shall continue to apply to the Company.

 

Following the receipt of a Monthly Payment in the form of Conversion Shares, excluding the final Monthly Payment, if during the ten (10) Trading Day period beginning on the Trading Date following the Payment Date on which such Conversion Shares were delivered (the “Succeeding Measurement Period”), the Market Price (the “Succeeding Market Price”) shall be less than the Monthly Conversion Price during the prior Monthly Conversion Period, then on the Trading Day following such Succeeding Measurement Period, the Company shall transfer to the Holder an additional number of Ordinary Shares (the “Make Whole Shares”) equal to the amount of the prior Monthly Payment divided by the difference between the Succeeding Market Price and the prior Monthly Conversion Price; provided, however, that if (i) the Succeeding Market Price is less than the Floor Price and (ii) the Company desires to exercise a right to waive the Floor Price limitation and issue Make Whole Shares at less than the Floor Price, in lieu of receiving Make Whole Shares, the Holder may elect to receive a cash payment derived by multiplying (i) the number of Make Whole Shares which would have been required to be delivered pursuant to the above provisions by (ii) the VWAP of the Ordinary Shares on the last Trading Day in the applicable Succeeding Measurement Period. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that the Succeeding Market Price is in excess of the Monthly Conversion Price during the applicable prior Monthly Conversion Period, the Holder shall not be required to refund any Ordinary Shares nor shall the Company receive a credit in respect of such excess in connection with any following Monthly Payment. With respect to the final Monthly Payment, if the Company intends to pay such Monthly Payment in the form of Ordinary Shares, prior to the applicable Monthly Conversion Period (but not more than two (2) Trading Days prior to the commencement of the Monthly Conversion Period), the Company shall deliver to the Holder a number of Ordinary Shares to be applied against such Monthly Payment equal to the quotient of (x) the applicable Monthly Payment divided by (y) the lesser of (A) the Conversion Price and (B) 90% of the lowest closing bid price during the ten (10) Trading Day period preceding the delivery of such Ordinary Shares (the “Final Monthly Payment Provisional Conversion Price”). If the Monthly Conversion Price with respect to the final Payment Date is less than the Final Monthly Payment Provisional Conversion Price, then on the final Payment Date, the Company shall transfer to the Holder an additional number of Ordinary Shares equal to the amount of the final Monthly Payment divided by the difference between the Final Monthly Payment Provisional Conversion Price and the Monthly Conversion Price with respect to the final Payment Date. In connection with the foregoing, unless waived by the Company, the Holder agrees that in any Succeeding Measurement Period, it will not sell any Ordinary Shares received by the Holder from the Company in respect of the related Payment Date, on more than four (4) of the Trading Days during such Succeeding Measurement Period, which such four (4) Trading Days for the avoidance doubt need not be consecutive Trading Days.

 

1.4 Prepayment. At any time after the Issuance Date and provided that no Event of Default has occurred, but subject in all cases to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Maker may repay any portion of the outstanding Principal Amount upon at least ten (10) Trading Days’ written notice (the “Prepayment Notice Period”) of the Holder (the “Prepayment Notice”) by paying an amount equal to 110% of the Principal Amount then being prepaid (representing a 10% prepayment premium payable to the Holder which shall not constitute a principal repayment); provided that (i) the Equity Conditions are then met, (ii) the closing price of the Ordinary Shares on the Trading Day prior to the date of the Prepayment Notice is below the Conversion Price, and (iii) a registration statement registering all of the Conversion Shares issuable under this Note and the Warrant Shares issuable under the Warrants shall have been declared effective. If the Maker elects to prepay this Note pursuant to the provisions of this Section 1.4, the Holder shall have the right, upon written notice to the Maker (a “Prepayment Conversion Notice”) within five (5) Trading Days of the Holder’s receipt of a Prepayment Notice, to convert up to all of the Principal at the Conversion Price (as defined below), in accordance with the provisions of Article 3, specifying the Principal Amount that the Holder will convert. Upon delivery of a Prepayment Notice, the Maker irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, within five (5) Trading Days of receiving a Prepayment Conversion Notice, and if no Prepayment Conversion Notice is received, within ten (10) Trading Days of delivery of a Prepayment Notice: (i) repay the outstanding Principal Amount minus the Principal Amount set forth in the Prepayment Conversion Notice and (ii) issue the applicable Conversion Shares to the Holder in accordance with Article 3. The foregoing notwithstanding, the Maker may not deliver a Prepayment Notice with respect to any outstanding Principal Amount that is subject to a Conversion Notice delivered by the Holder in accordance with Article 3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any prepayments made under this Note, including the provisions of this Section 1.4, shall be subject in all cases to the terms of the Purchase Agreement. If any of the Equity Conditions shall cease to be satisfied at any time during the Prepayment Notice Period or if an Event of Default occurs, then the Holder may elect to nullify the Prepayment Notice by notice to the Company within 3 Trading Days after the first day on which any such Equity Condition has not been met or Event of Default has occurred (provided that if, by a provision of the Transaction Documents, the Company is obligated to notify the Holder of the non-existence of an Equity Condition, such notice period shall be extended to the third Trading Day after proper notice from the Company) in which case the Prepayment Notice shall be null and void, ab initio. The Company covenants and agrees that it will honor all Conversion Notices tendered from the time of delivery of the Prepayment Notice through the date all amounts owing thereon are due and paid in full.

1.5 Delisting from a Trading Market. If at any time the Ordinary Shares cease to be listed on a Trading Market, (i) the Holder may, after receiving the prior written consent of the Requisite Holders, deliver a demand for payment to the Company and, if such a demand is delivered, the Company shall, within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of the demand for payment from the Holder, pay all of the Outstanding Principal Amount or (ii) the Holder may, at its election and upon receiving the prior written consent of the Requisite Holders, after the six-month anniversary of the Issuance Date or earlier if a Registration Statement covering the Conversion Shares has been declared effective, upon notice to the Company in accordance with Section 5.1, convert all or a portion of the Outstanding Principal Amount at the Conversion Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any payments made under this Note, including the provisions of this Section 1.5, shall be subject in all cases to the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

 

1.6 Payment on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment may be due on the next succeeding Business Day.

 

1.7 Transfer. This Note may be transferred or sold, subject to the provisions of Section 5.8 of this Note, or pledged, hypothecated or otherwise granted as security by the Holder.

 

1.8 Replacement. Upon receipt of a duly executed and notarized written statement from the Holder with respect to the loss, theft or destruction of this Note (or any replacement hereof), or, in the case of a mutilation of this Note, upon surrender and cancellation of such Note, the Maker shall issue a new Note, of like tenor and amount, in lieu of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.

 

1.9 Use of Proceeds. The Maker shall use the proceeds of this Note as set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

 

1.10 Reserved.

 

1.11 Status of Note. The obligations of the Maker under this Note shall rank senior to all other existing Indebtedness and equity of the Company, other than Indebtedness owing to the other Investors under the other Notes (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) (the “Other Notes”) and the obligations of the Maker under this Note shall rank pari passu with all other Indebtedness owing to the other Investors under the Other Notes. Upon any Liquidation Event (as hereinafter defined), but subject in all cases to the Purchase Agreement, the Holder will be entitled to receive, before any distribution or payment is made upon, or set apart with respect to, any Indebtedness of the Maker (other than Indebtedness in respect of the Other Notes) or any class of capital stock of the Maker, an amount equal to the Outstanding Principal Amount. For purposes of this Note, “Liquidation Event” means a liquidation pursuant to a filing of a petition for bankruptcy under applicable law or any other insolvency or debtor’s relief, an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Maker.

(a) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default that has not been remedied within (i) two (2) Business Days for an Event of Default occurring by the Company’s failure to comply with Section 7.1(c) of the Purchase Agreement or Section 3.2 of this Note, or (ii) ten (10) Business Days for all other Events of Default; provided, however, that there shall be no cure period for an Event of Default described in Section 2.1(i), or 2.1(j), the Maker shall be obligated to pay to the Holder the Mandatory Default Amount, which Mandatory Default Amount shall be earned by the Holder on the date the Event of Default giving rise thereto occurs and shall be due and payable on the earlier to occur of the Maturity Date, upon conversion, redemption or prepayment of this Note or the date on which all amounts owing hereunder have been accelerated in accordance with the terms hereof (provided all payments shall be subject to the provisions of the Purchase Agreement with respect to the holders of the Other Notes).

 

(b) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Maker shall, as promptly as possible but in any event within two (2) Business Day of the occurrence of such Event of Default, notify the Holder of the occurrence of such Event of Default, describing the event or factual situation giving rise to the Event of Default and specifying the relevant subsection or subsections of Section 2.1 hereof under which such Event of Default has occurred.

 

(c) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and shall not have been remedied within (i) two (2) Business Days for an Event of Default occurring by the Company’s failure to comply with Section 7.1(c) of the Purchase Agreement or Section 3.2 of this Note, or (ii) ten (10) Business Days for all other Events of Default; provided, however, that there shall be no cure period for an Event of Default described in Section 2.1(i), or 2.1(j), the Holder may at any time at its option, subject to receiving the prior written consent of the Requisite Holders, declare the Mandatory Default Amount due and payable, and thereupon, the same shall be accelerated and so due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest, or notice, all of which are hereby expressly unconditionally and irrevocably waived by the Maker; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described above, the Holder, in its sole and absolute discretion, but subject to receiving the prior written consent of the Requisite Holders, may: (a) from time-to-time demand that all or a portion of the Outstanding Principal Amount be converted into Ordinary Shares at a price per share equal to 0.80 times the Market Price; provided, that, if at the time of such demand the Market Price is less than the Floor Price, and the Company desires to exercise a right to waive the Floor Price and issue Conversion Shares at less than the Floor Price, then in lieu of receiving such demanded portion of the Outstanding Principal Amount in Conversion Shares, the Holder may elect to receive a cash payment derived by multiplying (i) the number of Ordinary Shares which would have been required to be delivered pursuant to the above provisions by (ii) the VWAP of the Ordinary Shares on last Trading Day prior to the date of such demand; and provided, further however, that the conversion right set forth in this clause (a) shall not be exercisable by the Holder if, prior to such right being exercised, the Event of Default in question if capable of being cured, has been cured, or (b) exercise or otherwise enforce any one or more of the Holder’s rights, powers, privileges, remedies and interests under this Note, the Purchase Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or applicable law.

ARTICLE 3

 

3.1 Conversion.

 

(a) Conversion. At any time following the date of effectiveness of a Registration Statement covering the applicable Conversion Shares (as set forth in the Purchase Agreement), this Note shall be convertible (in whole or in part), at the option of the Holder, into such number of fully paid and non-assessable Ordinary Shares as is determined by dividing (x) that portion of the Outstanding Principal Amount that the Holder elects to convert (the “Conversion Amount”) by (y) the Conversion Price then in effect on the date on which the Holder delivers a notice of conversion, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Conversion Notice”), in accordance with Section 5.1 to the Maker. The Holder shall deliver this Note to the Maker at the address designated in the Purchase Agreement at such time that this Note is fully converted. With respect to partial conversions of this Note, the Maker shall keep written records of the amount of this Note converted as of the date of such conversion (each, a “Conversion Date”).

 

(b) Conversion Price. The “Conversion Price” means $6.00, and shall be subject to adjustment as provided herein.

 

3.2 Delivery of Conversion Shares. As soon as practicable after any conversion or payment of any amount due hereunder in the form of Ordinary Shares in accordance with this Note, and in any event within two (2) Trading Days thereafter (such date, the “Share Delivery Date”), the Maker shall, at its expense, cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder, or as the Holder may direct, a certificate or certificates evidencing the number of fully paid and non-assessable Ordinary Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled on such conversion or payment (the “Conversion Shares”), in the applicable denominations based on the applicable conversion or payment, which certificate or certificates shall be free of restrictive and trading legends (except for any such legends as may be required under the 1933 Act). In lieu of delivering physical certificates for the Ordinary Shares issuable upon any conversion of this Note, provided the Company’s transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer program or a similar program, upon request of the Holder, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit such Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note to the Holder (or its designee), by crediting the account of the Holder’s (or such designee’s) broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system (provided that the same time periods herein as for stock certificates shall apply) as instructed by the Holder (or its designee).

 

3.3 Ownership Cap. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Holder shall not be entitled to receive shares representing Equity Interests upon conversion of this Note to the extent (but only to the extent) that such exercise or receipt would cause the Holder Group (as defined below) to become, directly or indirectly, a “beneficial owner” (within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) of a number of Equity Interests of a class that is registered under the 1934 Act which exceeds the Maximum Percentage (as defined below) of the Equity Interests of such class that are outstanding at such time. Any purported delivery of Equity Interests in connection with the conversion of this Note prior to the termination of this restriction in accordance herewith shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that such delivery would result in the Holder Group becoming the beneficial owner of more than the Maximum Percentage of the Equity Interests of a class that is registered under the 1934 Act that is outstanding at such time. If any delivery of Equity Interests owed to the Holder following conversion of this Note is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of this limitation, the Company’s obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished and the Company shall deliver such Equity Interests as promptly as practicable after the Holder gives notice to the Company that such delivery would not result in such limitation being triggered or upon termination of the restriction in accordance with the terms hereof. To the extent limitations contained in this Section 3.3 apply, the determination of whether this Note is convertible and of which portion of this Note is convertible shall be the sole responsibility and in the sole determination of the Holder, and the submission of a notice of conversion shall be deemed to constitute the Holder’s determination that the issuance of the full number of Conversion Shares requested in the notice of conversion is permitted hereunder, and the Company shall not have any obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. For purposes of this Section 3.3, (i) the term “Maximum Percentage” shall mean 4.99%; provided, that if at any time after the date hereof the Holder Group beneficially owns in excess of 4.99% of any class of Equity Interests in the Company that is registered under the 1934 Act, then the Maximum Percentage shall automatically increase to 9.99% so long as the Holder Group owns in excess of 4.99% of such class of Equity Interests (and shall, for the avoidance of doubt, automatically decrease to 4.99% upon the Holder Group ceasing to own in excess of 4.99% of such class of Equity Interests); and (ii) the term “Holder Group” shall mean the Holder plus any other Person with which the Holder is considered to be part of a group under Section 13 of the 1934 Act or with which the Holder otherwise files reports under Sections 13 and/or 16 of the 1934 Act. In determining the number of Equity Interests of a particular class outstanding at any point in time, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding Equity Interests of such class as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Form 20-F or Form 6-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) a more recent notice by the Company or its transfer agent to the Holder setting forth the number of Equity Interests of such class then outstanding. For any reason at any time, upon written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall, within one (1) Business Day of such request, confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of Equity Interests of any class then outstanding. The provisions of this Section 3.3 shall be construed, corrected and implemented in a manner so as to effectuate the intended beneficial ownership limitation herein contained.

 

3.4 Adjustment of Conversion Price.

 

(a) Until the Note has been paid in full or converted in full, the Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows (but shall not be increased, other than pursuant to Section 3.4(a)(i) hereof):

 

(i) Adjustments for Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Maker shall at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date (but whether before or after the Issuance Date) effect a split of the outstanding Ordinary Shares, the applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the stock split shall be proportionately decreased. If the Maker shall at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date (but whether before or after the Issuance Date), combine the outstanding Ordinary Shares, the applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustments under this Section 3.4(a)(i) shall be effective at the close of business on the date the stock split or combination occurs.

 

8

 

 

(ii) Adjustments for Certain Dividends and Distributions. If the Maker shall at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date (but whether before or after the Issuance Date) make or issue or set a record date for the determination of holders of Ordinary Shares entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Ordinary Shares, then, and in each event, the applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such event shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the applicable Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction:

 

(1) the numerator of which shall be the total number of Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date; and

 

(2) the denominator of which shall be the total number of Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of Ordinary Shares issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution.

 

(iii) Adjustment for Other Dividends and Distributions. If the Maker shall at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date (but whether before or after the Issuance Date) make or issue or set a record date for the determination of holders of Ordinary Shares entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in other Ordinary Shares, then, and in each event, an appropriate revision to the applicable Conversion Price shall be made and provision shall be made (by adjustments of the Conversion Price or otherwise) so that the Holder of this Note shall receive upon conversions thereof, in addition to the number of Ordinary Shares receivable thereon, the number of securities of the Maker or other issuer (as applicable) or other property that it would have received had this Note been converted into Ordinary Shares in full (without regard to any conversion limitations herein) on the date of such event and had thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the Conversion Date, retained such securities (together with any distributions payable thereon during such period) or assets, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this Section 3.4(a)(iii) with respect to the rights of the holders of this Note; provided, however, that if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this paragraph as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions.

 

(iv) Adjustments for Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution. If the Ordinary Shares at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date (but whether before or after the Issuance Date) shall be changed to the same or different number of shares or other securities of any class or classes of stock or other property, whether by reclassification, exchange, substitution or otherwise (other than by way of a stock split or combination of shares or stock dividends provided for in Sections 3.4(a)(i), (ii) and (iii) hereof, or a reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets provided for in Section 3.4(a)(v) hereof), then, and in each event, an appropriate revision to the Conversion Price shall be made and provisions shall be made (by adjustments of the Conversion Price or otherwise) so that the Holder shall have the right thereafter to convert this Note into the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or other property receivable upon reclassification, exchange, substitution or other change, by holders of the number of Ordinary Shares into which such Note might have been converted immediately prior to such reclassification, exchange, substitution or other change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

 

9

 

 

(v) Adjustment Due to Dilutive Issuance. If, at any time when any Notes are issued and outstanding, the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with this Section 3.4(a)(v) hereof is deemed to have issued or sold, except for Ordinary Shares issued in an issuance of Exempt Securities (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), any Ordinary Shares for a consideration per share (before deduction of reasonable expenses or commissions or underwriting discounts or allowances in connection therewith) less than the Conversion Price in effect on the date of such issuance (or deemed issuance) of such Ordinary Shares (a “Dilutive Issuance”), then immediately upon the Dilutive Issuance, the Conversion Price will be reduced to the amount of the consideration per share received by the Company in such Dilutive Issuance.

 

The Company shall be deemed to have issued or sold Ordinary Shares if the Company in any manner issues or grants any warrants, rights or options (not including employee stock option plans), whether or not immediately exercisable, to subscribe for or to purchase Ordinary Shares or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares (“Convertible Securities”) (such warrants, rights and options to Ordinary Shares or Convertible Securities are hereinafter referred to as “Options”) and the price per share for which such Ordinary Shares are issuable upon the exercise of such Options is less than the Conversion Price then in effect, then the Conversion Price shall be equal to such price per share. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the “price per share for which such Ordinary Shares are issuable upon the exercise of such Options” is determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or granting of all such Options, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of all such Options, plus, in the case of Convertible Securities issuable upon the exercise of such Options, the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration payable upon the conversion or exchange thereof at the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of all such Options (assuming full conversion of Convertible Securities, if applicable). No further adjustment to the Conversion Price will be made upon the actual issuance of such Ordinary Shares upon the exercise of such Options or upon the conversion or exchange of Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of such Options.

 

Additionally, the Company shall be deemed to have issued or sold Ordinary Shares if the Company in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities, whether or not immediately convertible (other than in an issuance of Exempt Securities), and the price per share for which such Ordinary Shares are issuable upon such conversion or exchange is less than the Conversion Price then in effect, then the Conversion Price shall be equal to such price per share. For the purposes of the preceding sentence, the “price per share for which such Ordinary Shares are issuable upon such conversion or exchange” is determined by dividing (i) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company as consideration for the issuance or sale of all such Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange thereof at the time such Convertible Securities first become convertible or exchangeable, by (ii) the maximum total number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon the conversion or exchange of all such Convertible Securities. No further adjustment to the Conversion Price will be made upon the actual issuance of such Ordinary Shares upon conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

(vi) Reserved.

 

(vii) Consideration for Stock. In case any Ordinary Shares or any Common Stock Equivalents shall be issued or sold:

 

(1) in connection with any merger or consolidation in which the Maker is the surviving corporation (other than any consolidation or merger in which the previously outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Maker shall be changed to or exchanged for the stock or other securities of another corporation), the amount of consideration therefor shall be, deemed to be the fair value, as determined reasonably and in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Maker and approved by the Requisite Holders, of such portion of the assets and business of the nonsurviving corporation as such Board of Directors may determine to be attributable to such Ordinary Shares, Convertible Securities, rights or warrants or options, as the case may be; or

 

(2) in the event of any consolidation or merger of the Maker in which the Maker is not the surviving corporation or in which the previously outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Maker shall be changed into or exchanged for the stock or other securities of another corporation or other property, or in the event of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Maker for stock or other securities or other property of any corporation, the Maker shall be deemed to have issued Ordinary Shares, at a price per share equal to the valuation of the Maker’s Ordinary Shares based on the actual exchange ratio on which the transaction was predicated, as applicable, and the fair market value on the date of such transaction of all such stock or securities or other property of the other corporation. If any such calculation results in adjustment of the applicable Conversion Price, or the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Note, the determination of the applicable Conversion Price or the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Note immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or sale, shall be made after giving effect to such adjustment of the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Note. In the event Ordinary Shares are issued with other shares or securities or other assets of the Maker for consideration which covers both, the consideration computed as provided in this Section 3.4(a)(vii) shall be allocated among such securities and assets as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Maker, and approved by the Requisite Holders.

 

11

 

 

(viii) Record Date. In case the Maker shall take record of the holders of its Ordinary Shares for the purpose of entitling them to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares or Convertible Securities, then the date of the issue or sale of the Ordinary Shares shall be deemed to be such record date.

 

(b) No Impairment. The Maker shall not, by amendment of its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Maker, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 3.4 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the Holder against impairment. In the event the Holder shall elect to convert this Note as provided herein, the Maker cannot 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, violation of an agreement to which the Holder is a party or for any reason whatsoever, unless, an injunction from a court, or notice, restraining and or adjoining conversion of this Note shall have issued and the Maker posts a surety bond for the benefit of the Holder in an amount equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Principal Amount of the Note the Holder has elected to convert, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to the Holder (as liquidated damages) in the event it obtains judgment.

 

(c) Certificates as to Adjustments. Upon occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price or number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note pursuant to this Section 3.4, the Maker at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment and readjustment, showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Maker shall, upon written request of the Holder, at any time, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Holder a like certificate setting forth such adjustments and readjustments, the applicable Conversion Price in effect at the time, and the number of Ordinary Shares and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Maker shall not be obligated to deliver a certificate unless such certificate would reflect an increase or decrease of at least one percent (1%) of such adjusted amount.

 

(d) Issue Taxes. The Maker shall pay any and all issue and other taxes, excluding federal, state or local income taxes, that may be payable in respect of any issue or delivery of Ordinary Shares on conversion of this Note pursuant thereto; provided, however, that the Maker shall not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes resulting from any transfer requested by the Holder in connection with any such conversion.

 

(e) Fractional Shares. No fractional Ordinary Shares shall be issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Maker shall pay cash equal such fractional shares multiplied by the Conversion Price then in effect.

 

12

 

 

(f) Reservation of Ordinary Shares. The Maker shall at all while this Note shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but Ordinary Shares, the Required Minimum of Ordinary Shares (disregarding for this purpose any and all limitations of any kind on such conversion). The Maker shall, from time to time, increase the authorized number of Ordinary Shares or take other effective action if at any time the unissued number of authorized shares shall not be sufficient to satisfy the Maker’s obligations under this Section 3.4(f).

 

(g) Regulatory Compliance. If any Ordinary Shares to be reserved for the purpose of conversion of this Note require registration or listing with or approval of any governmental authority, stock exchange or other regulatory body under any federal or state law or regulation or otherwise before such shares may be validly issued or delivered upon conversion, the Maker shall, at its sole cost and expense, in good faith and as expeditiously as possible, secure such registration, listing or approval, as the case may be.

 

(h) Effect of Events Prior to the Issuance Date. If the Issuance Date of this Note is after the Closing Date, then, if the Conversion Price or any other right of the Holder of this Note would have been adjusted or modified by operation of any provision of this Note had this Note been issued on the Closing Date, such adjustment or modification shall be deemed to apply to this Note as of the Issuance Date as if this Note had been issued on the Closing Date.

 

3.5 Prepayment Following a Change of Control.

 

(a) Mechanics of Prepayment at Option of Holder in Connection with a Change of Control. No later than fifteen (15) days following the entry by the Company into an agreement for a Change of Control, but in no event prior to the public announcement of such Change of Control, the Maker shall deliver written notice describing the entry into such agreement (“Notice of Change of Control”) to the Holder. Within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a Notice of Change of Control, the Requisite Holders may require the Maker to prepay, effective immediately prior to the consummation of such Change of Control, an amount equal to 105% of the Outstanding Principal Amount (the “COC Repayment Price”), by delivering written notice thereof (“Notice of Prepayment at Option of Holder Upon Change of Control”) to the Maker.

 

(b) Payment of COC Repayment Price. Upon the Maker’s receipt of a Notice(s) of Prepayment at Option of Holder Upon Change of Control from the Requisite Holders, the Maker shall deliver the COC Repayment Price to the Holder immediately prior to the consummation of the Change of Control; provided that the Holder’s original Note shall have been so delivered to the Maker, and, provided, further that all payments shall be subject to the provisions of the Purchase Agreement with respect to the holders of the Other Notes.

 

13

 

 

3.6 Inability to Fully Convert.

 

(a) Holder’s Option if Maker Cannot Fully Convert. If, upon the Maker’s receipt of a Conversion Notice or as otherwise required under this Note, including with respect to repayment of principal in Ordinary Shares as permitted under this Note, the Maker cannot issue Ordinary Shares for any reason, including, without limitation, because the Maker (x) does not have a sufficient number of Ordinary Shares authorized and available or (y) is otherwise prohibited by applicable law or by the rules or regulations of any stock exchange, interdealer quotation system or other self-regulatory organization with jurisdiction over the Maker or any of its securities from issuing all of the Ordinary Shares which are to be issued to the Holder pursuant to this Note, then the Maker shall issue as many Ordinary Shares as it is able to issue and, with respect to the unconverted portion of this Note or with respect to any Ordinary Shares not timely issued in accordance with this Note, the Holder, solely at Holder’s option, can elect to:

 

(i) require the Maker to prepay that portion of this Note for which the Maker is unable to issue Ordinary Shares or for which Ordinary Shares were not timely issued (the “Mandatory Prepayment”) at a price equal to the number of Ordinary Shares that the Maker is unable to issue multiplied by the Conversion Price on the date of the Conversion Notice (the “Mandatory Prepayment Price”) (provided all payments shall be subject to the provisions of the Purchase Agreement with respect to the holders of the Other Notes);

 

(ii) void its Conversion Notice and retain or have returned, as the case may be, this Note that was to be converted pursuant to the Conversion Notice (provided that the Holder’s voiding its Conversion Notice shall not affect the Maker’s obligations to make any payments which have accrued prior to the date of such notice); or

 

(iii) defer issuance of the applicable Conversion Shares until such time as the Maker can legally issue such shares; provided that the Principal Amount underlying such Conversion Shares shall remain outstanding until the delivery of such Conversion Shares; and provided, further, that if the Holder elects to defer the issuance of the Conversion Shares, it may exercise its rights under either clause (i) or (ii) above at any time prior to the issuance of the Conversion Shares upon two (2) Business Days’ notice to the Maker.

 

(b) Mechanics of Fulfilling Holder’s Election. The Maker shall immediately send to the Holder, upon receipt of a Conversion Notice from the Holder, which cannot be fully satisfied as described in Section 3.6(a) above, a notice of the Maker’s inability to fully satisfy the Conversion Notice (the “Inability to Fully Convert Notice”). Such Inability to Fully Convert Notice shall indicate (i) the reason why the Maker is unable to fully satisfy the Holder’s Conversion Notice; and (ii) the amount of this Note which cannot be converted. The Holder shall notify the Maker of its election pursuant to Section 3.6(a) above by delivering written notice to the Maker (“Notice in Response to Inability to Convert”).

 

(c) Payment of Mandatory Prepayment Price. If the Holder shall elect to have its Note prepaid pursuant to Section 3.6(a)(i) above, the Maker shall pay the Mandatory Prepayment Price to the Holder within five (5) Business Days of the Maker’s receipt of the Holder’s Notice in Response to Inability to Convert; provided that prior to the Maker’s receipt of the Holder’s Notice in Response to Inability to Convert the Maker has not delivered a notice to the Holder stating, to the satisfaction of the Holder, that the event or condition resulting in the Mandatory Prepayment has been cured and all Conversion Shares issuable to the Holder can and will be delivered to the Holder in accordance with the terms of this Note. If the Maker shall fail to pay the applicable Mandatory Prepayment Price to the Holder on the date that is two (2) Business Days following the Maker’s receipt of the Holder’s Notice in Response to Inability to Convert, in addition to any remedy the Holder may have under this Note and the Purchase Agreement, such unpaid amount shall bear interest at the rate of two percent (2%) per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full. Until the full Mandatory Prepayment Price is paid in full to the Holder, the Holder may (i) void the Mandatory Prepayment with respect to that portion of the Note for which the full Mandatory Prepayment Price has not been paid and (ii) receive back such Note.

 

14

 

 

(d) No Rights as Shareholder. Nothing contained in this Note shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder, prior to the conversion of this Note, the right to vote or to receive dividends or to consent or to receive notice as a shareholder of the Company in respect of any meeting of shareholders for the election of directors of the Maker or of any other matter, or any other rights as a shareholder of the Maker.

The purchase price of one Ordinary Share under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).

 

Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated January 21, 2022 by and between the Company and the Holder.

 

Section 2. Exercise.

 

a) Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company of a duly executed facsimile copy (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Exercise in the form attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Notice of Exercise”). Within two (2) Trading Days following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a designated Company account or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2(c) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

(A) = as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b)(64) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price of the Ordinary Shares on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;

 

(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and

 

(X) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

 

If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the characteristics of the Warrants being exercised and the holding period of the Warrants being exercised may be tacked on to the holding period of the Warrant Shares. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 2(c).

(based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if the Ordinary Shares are traded on OTCQB or OTCQX , the volume weighted average sales price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Ordinary Shares are not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Ordinary Shares are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by OTC Markets Group, Inc.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, on the Termination Date, this Warrant shall be automatically exercised via cashless exercise pursuant to this Section 2(c).

 

d) Mechanics of Exercise.

 

i. Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Company’s share transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by Holder, or (B) if there is no effective registration statement and the Warrant is exercised via cashless exercise at a time when such Warrant Shares would be eligible for resale under Rule 144 by a non-affiliate of the Company, such Warrant Shares are delivered to Holder’s broker, and the Company receives a statement from Holder’s broker that it has received instructions to sell the Warrant Shares or that it would take responsibility that the sales of the Warrant Shares will only be made if the Warrant Shares are eligible to be sold under Rule 144, and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is the earliest of (i) three (3) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise or (ii) one (1) Trading Day after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received within three (3) Trading Days following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Ordinary Shares on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable.

 

ii. Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.

 

iii. Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

iv. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(d)(i) above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, Ordinary Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Ordinary Shares so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of Ordinary Shares that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Ordinary Shares having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of Ordinary Shares with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver Ordinary Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

v. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company 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 Exercise Price or round down to the next whole share.

 

vi. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which transfer taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached as Exhibit B hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.

 

vii. Closing of Books. The Company will not close its shareholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.

e) Holder’s Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of Ordinary Shares which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, non-exercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or non-converted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Ordinary Shares Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company 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 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of Ordinary Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding Ordinary Shares was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(e), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Ordinary Shares upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2(e) shall continue to apply. Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained 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 Warrant.

Section 3. Certain Adjustments.

 

a) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Ordinary Shares or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in Ordinary Shares (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Ordinary Shares issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding Ordinary Shares into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Ordinary Shares any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders 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) Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Ordinary Shares Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Ordinary Shares (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of Ordinary Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Ordinary Shares are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such Ordinary Shares as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

 

c) Pro Rata Distributions. During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Ordinary Shares, by way of return of capital or otherwise, other than cash (including, without limitation, any distribution of 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 Warrant, 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 Ordinary Shares acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (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 Ordinary Shares 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 Ordinary Shares 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).

d) Subsequent Equity Sales. Except in any case for Ordinary Shares issued in an issuance of Exempted Securities (as defined in the Purchase Agreement, but excluding Ordinary Shares issued in connection with an Acquisition under clause (a)(i) of that definition, but only to the extent that the total mix of consideration received by the holders of Ordinary Shares in connection with an Acquisition is less, on a per share basis, than the Exercise Price then in effect), to which this section shall not apply, if and whenever, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company issues or sells or in accordance with this Section 3 is deemed to have issued, sold or granted, any Ordinary Shares and/or Ordinary Share Equivalents (including the issuance or sale of Ordinary Shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company) for a consideration per share (the “New Issuance Price”) less than a price equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale (such Exercise Price then in effect is referred to herein as the “Applicable Price”) (the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”), then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance the Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the New Issuance Price. For all purposes of the foregoing (including, without limitation, determining the adjusted Exercise Price and the New Issuance Price under this Section 3(d)), the following shall be applicable:

 

i. Issuance of Options. If the Company in any manner grants, issues or sells (or enters into any agreement to grant, issue or sell) any Options (as defined below) and the lowest price per share for which one Ordinary Share is at any time issuable upon the exercise of any such Option (as defined below) or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Ordinary Share Equivalents issuable upon exercise of any such Option (as defined below) or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such Ordinary Shares shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the granting or sale of such Option (as defined below) for such price per share. For purposes of this Section 3(d)(i), the “lowest price per share for which one Ordinary Share is at any time issuable upon the exercise of any such Options (as defined below) or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Ordinary Share Equivalents issuable upon exercise of any such Option (as defined below) or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof” shall be equal to (1) the lower of (x) the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to any one Ordinary Share upon the granting, issuance or sale of such Option (as defined below), upon exercise of such Option (as defined below) and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Ordinary Share Equivalents issuable upon exercise of such Option (as defined below) or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof and (y) the lowest exercise price set forth in such Option (as defined below) for which one Ordinary Share is issuable (or may become issuable assuming all possible market conditions) upon the exercise of any such Options (as defined below) or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Ordinary Share Equivalents issuable upon exercise of any such Option (as defined below) or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof minus (2) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to the holder of such Option (or any other Person) upon the granting, issuance or sale of such Option (as defined below), upon exercise of such Option (as defined below) and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Ordinary Share Equivalents issuable upon exercise of such Option (as defined below) or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof plus the value of any other consideration received or receivable by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such Option (as defined below) (or any other Person). Except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Ordinary Shares or of such Ordinary Share Equivalents upon the exercise of such Options (as defined below) or otherwise pursuant to the terms of or upon the actual issuance of such Ordinary Shares upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Ordinary Share Equivalents. “Option” means any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares or Convertible Securities. “Convertible Securities” means any shares or other security (other than Options) that is at any time and under any circumstances, directly or indirectly, convertible into, exercisable or exchangeable for, or which otherwise entitles the holder thereof to acquire, any Ordinary Shares.

ii. Issuance of Convertible Securities. If the Company in any manner issues or sells (or enters into any agreement to issue or sell) any Ordinary Share Equivalents and the lowest price per share for which one share of Ordinary Share is at any time issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such Ordinary Shares shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by the Company at the time of the issuance or sale of such Ordinary Share Equivalents for such price per share. For the purposes of this Section 3(d)(ii), the “lowest price per share for which one Ordinary Share is at any time issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof” shall be equal to (1) the lower of (x) the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by the Company with respect to one Ordinary Share upon the issuance or sale of the Ordinary Share Equivalents and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Ordinary Share Equivalents or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof and (y) the lowest conversion price set forth in such Ordinary Share Equivalents for which one Ordinary Share is issuable (or may become issuable assuming all possible market conditions) upon conversion, exercise or exchange thereof or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof minus (2) the sum of all amounts paid or payable to the holder of such Ordinary Share Equivalents (or any other Person) upon the issuance or sale of such Ordinary Share Equivalents plus the value of any other consideration received or receivable by, or benefit conferred on, the holder of such Ordinary Share Equivalents (or any other Person). Except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such Ordinary Shares upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Ordinary Share Equivalents or otherwise pursuant to the terms thereof, and if any such issuance or sale of such Ordinary Share Equivalents is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustment of this Warrant has been or is to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 3(d), except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Exercise Price shall be made by reason of such issuance or sale.

 

iii. Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. If the purchase or exercise price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Ordinary Share Equivalents, or the rate at which any Ordinary Share Equivalents are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares increases or decreases at any time (other than proportional changes in conversion or exercise prices, as applicable, in connection with an event referred to in Section 3(a)), the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Ordinary Share Equivalents provided for such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 3(d)(iii), if the terms of any Option or Ordinary Share Equivalents that was outstanding as of the date this Warrant was issued are increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Ordinary Share Equivalents and the Ordinary Shares deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant to this Section 3(d) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Exercise Price then in effect.

 

 8

 

 

iv. Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. If any Option and/or Ordinary Share Equivalents and/or Adjustment Right (as defined below) is issued in connection with the issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale of any other securities of the Company (as determined by the Holder, the “Primary Security”, and such Option and/or Ordinary Share Equivalents and/or Adjustment Right (as defined below), the “Secondary Securities”), together comprising one integrated transaction, (or one or more transactions if such issuances or sales or deemed issuances or sales of securities of the Company either (A) have at least one investor or purchaser in common, (B) are consummated in reasonable proximity to each other and/or (C) are consummated under the same plan of financing) the aggregate consideration per Ordinary Share with respect to such Primary Security shall be deemed to be equal to the difference of (x) the lowest price per share for which one Ordinary Share was issued (or was deemed to be issued pursuant to Section 3(d)(i) or 3(d)(ii) above, as applicable) in such integrated transaction solely with respect to such Primary Security, minus (y) with respect to such Secondary Securities, the sum of (I) the Black Scholes Consideration Value (as defined below) of each such Option, if any, (II) the fair market value (as determined by the Holder in good faith) or the Black Scholes Consideration Value (as defined below), as applicable, of such Adjustment Right (as defined below), if any, and (III) the fair market value (as determined by the Holder) of such Ordinary Share Equivalents, if any, in each case, as determined on a per share basis in accordance with this Section 3(d)(iv). If any Ordinary Shares, Options or Ordinary Share Equivalents are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor (for the purpose of determining the consideration paid for such Ordinary Share, Option or Ordinary Share Equivalents, but not for the purpose of the calculation of the Black Scholes Consideration Value (as defined below)) will be deemed to be the net amount of consideration received by the Company therefor. If any Ordinary Shares, Options or Ordinary Share Equivalents are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company (for the purpose of determining the consideration paid for such Ordinary Shares, Option or Ordinary Share Equivalents, but not for the purpose of the calculation of the Black Scholes Consideration Value (as defined below)) will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of publicly traded securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company for such securities will be the arithmetic average of the VWAPs of such security for each of the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding the date of receipt. If any Ordinary Shares, Options or Ordinary Share Equivalents are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor (for the purpose of determining the consideration paid for such Ordinary Shares, Option or Ordinary Share Equivalents, but not for the purpose of the calculation of the Black Scholes Consideration Value (as defined below)) will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such Ordinary Shares, Options or Ordinary Share Equivalents (as the case may be). The fair value of any consideration other than cash or publicly traded securities will be determined jointly by the Company and the Holder. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Trading Days after the tenth (10th) day following such Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Holder. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by the Company). “Adjustment Right” means any right granted with respect to any securities issued in connection with, or with respect to, any issuance or sale (or deemed issuance or sale hereunder) of Ordinary Shares (other than rights of the type described in Sections 3(b) and 3(c) hereof) that could result in a decrease in the net consideration received by the Company in connection with, or with respect to, such securities (including, without limitation, any cash settlement rights, cash adjustment or other similar rights). “Black Scholes Consideration Value” means the value of the applicable Option, Convertible Security or Adjustment Right (as the case may be) as of the date of issuance thereof calculated using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg utilizing (i) an underlying price per share equal to the Closing Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the public announcement of the execution of definitive documents with respect to the issuance of such Option or Convertible Security (as the case may be), (ii) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the remaining term of such Option, Convertible Security or Adjustment Right (as the case may be) as of the date of issuance of such Option, Convertible Security or Adjustment Right (as the case may be), (iii) a zero cost of borrow and (iv) an expected volatility equal to the greater of 100% and the 30 day volatility obtained from the “HVT” function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365 day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the date of issuance of such Option, Convertible Security or Adjustment Right (as the case may be).

 

 9

 

 

v. Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. If the Company takes a record of the holders of Ordinary Shares for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in Ordinary Shares, Options or in Ordinary Share Equivalents or (B) to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares, Options or Ordinary Share Equivalents, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issuance or sale of the Ordinary Shares deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase (as the case may be).

 

e) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company, 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 the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Ordinary Shares 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 Ordinary Shares, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Ordinary Shares or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Ordinary Shares are effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, 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 or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares (not including any Ordinary Shares 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 exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of shares of common equity of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, 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 Ordinary Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Ordinary Shares in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Ordinary Shares 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 exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(e) 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, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the Ordinary Shares acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the Ordinary Shares pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant 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 Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

 

 10

 

 

e) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 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 3, the number of Ordinary Shares deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of Ordinary Shares (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.

 

f) Notice to Holder.

 

i. Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder by facsimile or email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

 

ii. Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Ordinary Shares, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Ordinary Shares, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Ordinary Shares rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any shareholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Ordinary Shares, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Ordinary Shares are converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered by facsimile or email to the Holder at its last facsimile number or email address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register (as defined below), at least 10 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Ordinary Shares of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Ordinary Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Ordinary Shares for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided in this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Form 6-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.

 

Section 4. Transfer of Warrant.

 

a) Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws, and the conditions set forth in Section 4(d) hereof, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer.

 12

 

 

d) Authorized Shares. The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Ordinary Shares a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Ordinary Shares may be listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

 

Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its memorandum or articles of association or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

 

Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

 

e) Jurisdiction. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

 

f) Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, and the Holder does not utilize cashless exercise, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.

 

g) Non-waiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant or the Purchase Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

 

h) Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

 

i) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Ordinary Shares or as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

 

 13

 

 

j) Remedies. The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 

k) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.

 

l) Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.

 

m) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

 

n) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.

Exhibit 10.4

 

GUARANTEE

 

This GUARANTEE (this “Guarantee”) dated as of January 21, 2022, by WJ Energy Group Limited (“Guarantor”), in favor of the investors signatory to the Purchase Agreement (as defined below).

 

WHEREAS, Guarantor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Indonesia Energy Corporation Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”);

 

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Company and certain accredited investors (the “Investors”) have executed that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which the Investors are purchasing convertible notes and warrants of the Company; and

 

WHEREAS, the execution and delivery of this Guarantee by Guarantor is a material inducement to the Investors to enter into the Purchase Agreement.

 

NOW THEREFORE, in exchange for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Guarantor agrees with the Investors as follows:

 

1. Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably all monetary obligations, liabilities and indebtedness of every nature of the Company from time to time owed or owing to the Investors arising under, out of or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Guarantee, the Purchase Agreement, the Notes, the Warrants and the other Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, the principal amount of all debts, claims and indebtedness, accrued and unpaid interest and all fees, taxes, indemnities, costs and expenses, whether primary, secondary, direct, contingent, fixed or otherwise, heretofore, now and/or from time to time hereafter owing, due or payable, whether before or after the filing of a bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding under applicable federal, state, foreign or other law and whether or not an allowed claim in any such proceeding (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). This Guarantee will not be affected by any event, occurrence or circumstance which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or surety. It is agreed that all limitations of liability (subject to the exclusions to such limitations) and exclusions of damages contemplated under the Transaction Documents shall at all times apply to Guarantor’s obligations under this Guarantee. By their execution of the Purchase Agreement and their acceptance of this Guarantee in connection with such execution, the Investors agree to the terms hereof.

 

2. The obligations, covenants, agreements and duties of Guarantor under this Guarantee shall in no way be affected or impaired by reason of the happening from time to time of the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale of all or substantially all of the assets, receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization of, or other similar proceeding affecting the Company or any of its respective assets.

 

3. Notice of acceptance of this Guarantee is hereby waived by Guarantor.

 

4. Except as provided for herein, this Guarantee will remain in full force and effect as to any renewal, modification or extension of the Purchase Agreement, and will survive the termination or expiration of the Purchase Agreement until the expiration of all applicable statutes of limitations for claims which could be made by Investors pursuant to the provisions of the Purchase Agreement and subject to any time limitations on bringing claims set forth therein.

 

1

 

 

5. No failure on the part of Investors to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy or power under this Guarantee shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Investors of any right, remedy or power under this Guarantee preclude any other or future exercise of any right, remedy or power. Each and every right, remedy and power granted to Investors by this Guarantee or allowed it by law or other agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other, and may be exercised by Investors from time to time.

 

6. If any provision in this Guarantee is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable, that shall not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of any other provision in this Guarantee.

 

7. Nature of Guarantee: Continuing, Absolute and Unconditional. Certain Rights of the Investors.

 

(a) This Guarantee is and is intended to be a continuing Guarantee of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, and not of collectability, and is intended to be independent of and in addition to any other Guarantee, endorsement, collateral or other agreement held by an Investor therefor or with respect thereto, whether or not furnished by the Guarantor (if any). None of Investors shall be required to prosecute collection, enforcement or other remedies against any Company, the Guarantor or any other person or entity before calling on the Guarantor for payment. The obligations of the Guarantor to repay the Guaranteed Obligations hereunder shall be unconditional. The Guarantor shall not have a right to exercise any right of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration, contribution or any other claim which it may now or hereafter have against the Company or in connection with this Guarantee until the termination of this Guarantee in accordance with the terms hereof, any security or collateral given to Investors to secure payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, and the Guarantor agrees that it will not take any action to enforce any obligations of the Company prior to the Guaranteed Obligations being finally and irrevocably paid in full in cash, provided that, in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company, to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have not been finally and irrevocably paid in full in cash, the Investors shall be entitled notwithstanding the foregoing, to file in the name of the Guarantor or in its own name a claim for any and all indebtedness owing to the Guarantor by the Company (exclusive of this Guarantee), vote such claim and to apply the proceeds of any such claim to the Guaranteed Obligations.

 

(b) For the further security of Investors and without in any way diminishing the liability of the Guarantor, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Notes), all debts and liabilities, present or future, of the Company to the Guarantor, and all monies received from the Company or for its account by the Guarantor in respect thereof shall be received in trust for Investors and, upon written demand signed by the Requisite Holders, promptly shall be paid over to the Investors, until all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full in cash. This assignment and postponement is independent of and severable from this Guarantee and shall remain in full effect for so long as Guarantor is liable for any amount under this Guarantee.

 

(c) This Guarantee is absolute and unconditional and shall not be changed or affected by any representation, oral agreement, act or thing whatsoever, except as herein provided. This Guarantee is intended by the Guarantor to be the final, complete and exclusive expression of the Guarantee agreement among the Company, the Guarantor, and the Investors (except as expressly limited by the express terms of this Guarantee). No modification or amendment of any provision of this Guarantee shall be effective against any party hereto unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized officer of such party (and in the case of the Investors, with the prior written approval of the Requisite Holders). This Guarantee, together with the other Transaction Documents, supersedes all other prior oral or written agreements between the Investors, the Company, and the Guarantors, their respective Affiliates and Persons acting on their respective behalves with respect to the matters discussed herein, and this Guarantee, together with the other Transaction Documents and the other instruments referenced herein and therein, contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company, the Guarantor, nor any Investor makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. As of the date of this Guarantee, there are no unwritten agreements between the parties with respect to the matters discussed herein. No provision of this Guarantee may be amended, modified or supplemented other than by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto.

(d) The Guarantor hereby releases each Investor from all, and agrees not to assert or enforce (whether by or in a legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise) any, “claims” (as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code), whether arising under any law, ordinance, rule, regulation, order, policy or other requirement of any domestic or foreign governmental authority or any instrumentality or agency thereof, having jurisdiction over the conduct of its business or assets or otherwise, to which the Guarantor is or would at any time be entitled by virtue of its obligations hereunder or any payment made pursuant hereto, including any such claims to which such Guarantor may be entitled as a result of any right of subrogation, exoneration or reimbursement.

 

(e) The Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the Investors may, without notice (i) reserve their rights against the Guarantor and without affecting such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) from time to time renew, extend, increase, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, the terms of or the interest on the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or grant other indulgences to the Guarantor or others (provided that the time for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations under the Transaction Documents may not be accelerated beyond the express terms of the Transaction Documents), (ii) subject to the terms of the Transaction Documents, determine the manner, amount and time of application of payments and credits, if any, to be made on all or any part of any component or components of the Guaranteed Obligations (whether principal, interest, fees, costs, and expenses, or otherwise), including, without limitation, the application of payments received from any source to the payment of Indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations even though one or more Investors might lawfully have elected to apply such payments to the Guaranteed Obligations or to amounts which are not covered by this Guarantee and (iii) generally do or refrain from doing any act or thing which might otherwise, at law or in equity, release the liability of the Guarantor as a guarantor in whole or in part.

 

8. This Guarantee shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of laws provisions thereof. Any action, proceeding or claim arising out of, or relating in any way to this Agreement shall be brought and enforced in the New York Supreme Court, County of New York (Commerical Division), or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The Company and the Investors irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of such courts, which jurisdiction shall be exclusive, and hereby waive any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction or that such courts represent an inconvenient forum. The prevailing party in any such action shall be entitled to recover its reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and out-of-pocket expenses relating to such action or proceeding. THE COMPANY AND THE INVESTORS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTEE.

 

9. All notices required by this Guarantee shall be in writing and in the manner provided for in Section 11.2 of the Purchase Agreement, and shall, unless and until different or additional addresses are substituted, be sent as follows:

Exhibit 99.1

 

INDONESIA ENERGY CLOSES INITIAL TRANCHE OF

$7.0 MILLION PRIVATE PLACEMENT

 

JAKARTA, INDONESIA and DANVILLE, CA / ACCESSWIRE / January 24, 2022 / Indonesia Energy Corporation (NYSE American:INDO) (“IEC”), an oil and gas exploration and production company focused on Indonesia, today announced the closing of the initial $5.0 million tranche of a total anticipated $7.0 million private placement with a single institutional investor.

 

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the private placement for funding its previously announced oil well drilling program and for working capital general corporate purposes.

 

The investment is in the form of a senior convertible note which carries a 6.0% original issue discount, resulting in proceeds before expenses to IEC of approximately $4.7 million. The note has an 18-month maturity and a fixed conversion price of $6.00 per ordinary share for voluntary conversions of the note, subject to adjustment. Beginning four months following the closing of this initial tranche, IEC is required to make equal monthly installment payments of the note through the maturity date, which payments are payable in cash or ordinary shares of IEC (or a combination of cash and shares), with such shares being valued for each payment on the terms provided for under the note.

 

As part of the investment, the investor was also granted a five year warrant to purchase 383,620 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $6.00 per share, subject to adjustment.

 

IEC has agreed to file a registration statement registering for resale the ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of the note and upon exercise of the warrant. Upon the declaration of effectiveness of such registration statement, and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, a second tranche of funding will be provided by the investor in the principal amount of $2 million, less a 6% original issuance discount, resulting in proceeds before expenses to IEC of approximately $1.88 million. Such principal amount, if funded, will be added to the principal amount of the note, and the investor will be entitled to receive an additional warrant (carrying the same terms as the initial warrant) to purchase 153,450 ordinary shares.

 

EF Hutton, division of Benchmark Investments, LLC, acted as exclusive placement agent for the private placement and received customary fees.

 

Additional information regarding this transaction will be provided in a Form 6-K to be filed by IEC with Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities described herein, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
