Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

As previously reported, on October 12, 2017, FC Global Realty Incorporated (the “ Company ”) issued to Dr. Dolev Rafaeli, Dennis M. McGrath and Yoav Ben-Dror (the “ Note Holders ”) Secured Convertible Promissory Notes in the principal amounts of $3,133,934, $977,666 and $1,515,000, respectively (the “ Notes ”). Pursuant to the terms of the Notes, the principal was to convert to shares of the Company’s common stock at maturity at the lower of (i) $2.5183 or (ii) the volume-weighted average price with respect to on-exchange transactions in the Company’s common stock executed on The Nasdaq Stock Market (“ Nasdaq ”) (or such other market on which the Company’s stock may then trade) during the thirty (30) trading days prior to the maturity date, as reported by Bloomberg L.P.; provided, however, that there was a conversion floor of $1.75 per share (the “ Floor Price ”).

 

As previously reported, on December 22, 2017, the Company and the Note Holders entered into a stock grant agreement (the “ Stock Grant Agreement ”) to, among other things, cause the early conversion of the Notes into an aggregate of 5,628,291 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “ Payout Shares ”), resulting in a conversion price of $0.9997, which is less than the Floor Price. In addition, pursuant to the Stock Grant Agreement, the Company agreed to (i) issue an additional 1,857,336 shares of common stock to the Note Holders as consideration for the various agreements of the Note Holders contained in the Stock Grant Agreement, including the Note Holders’ agreement to give up their first priority security interest and convert the Notes to equity and (ii) provide the Note Holders with certain cash payments in consideration for services to be provided by the Note Holders, in an amount equal to the amount of interest foregone by the Note Holders as a result of the conversion of the Notes.

 

As previously reported, on December 22, 2017, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “ Purchase Agreement ”) with Opportunity Fund I-SS, LLC (“ OFI ”), pursuant to which OFI could invest up to $11,000,000 in the Company in a series of closings, in exchange for which OFI would receive shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $1.00 per share. As of September 24, 2018, the Company and OFI completed the three closing under the Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which OFI provided, in the aggregate, $3,825,000 to the Company in exchange for an aggregate of 3,825,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

 

As previously reported, on April 20, 2018, the Company and OFI entered into a cancellation and exchange agreement (the “ Exchange Agreement ”), pursuant to which OFI agreed to provide an additional $2,000,000 to the Company in exchange for 2,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Exchange Agreement, including, among other things, the cancellation of 95,770 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock held by OFI in exchange for 5,382,274 shares of the Company’s common stock. Under the Exchange Agreement, closing of this additional investment was to occur following stockholder approval, which was not obtained.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation for the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock, which votes on an as-converted basis, was issued to OFI with a conversion price that constitutes a discount to the market price of the common stock at the date of issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock, resulting in the Series B Preferred Stock having a greater voting rights than the existing shares of common stock, which violates the Nasdaq’s voting rights rule. As previously reported, on April 20, 2018, the Company and OFI entered into a supplemental agreement (the “ Supplemental Agreement ”), pursuant to which (i) OFI agreed to limit the voting power of the Series B Preferred Stock to address this violation and (ii) the parties thereto corrected a violation of Nasdaq’s Listing Rules that require approval from stockholders prior to the issuance of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock issued under the Purchase Agreement that are in excess of 19.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock on the date of initial issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock to OFI, which resulted from a provision in the Purchase Agreement that incorrectly stated that such percentage is to be calculated as of the applicable conversion date of the Series B Preferred Stock instead of the date of initial issuance thereof.

 

As previously reported, the Company was notified by letter from Nasdaq on April 10, 2018 that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), which requires the Company to maintain a minimum of $2.5 million in stockholders’ equity.

 

Remediation Agreement

 

In order to comply with Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) and address the concerns of the staff of Nasdaq regarding the stockholder approval violations described above, on September 24, 2018, the Company entered into a remediation agreement with OFI and the Note Holders (the “ Remediation Agreement ”).

 

 

 

Pursuant to the Remediation Agreement, the Stock Grant Agreement was terminated, the Payout Shares were cancelled, and the Company issued to the Note Holders an aggregate of 7,485,627 shares of newly-designated Series C Preferred Stock. In addition, the resignations of Dr. Rafaeli and Mr. McGrath from the Company’s board of directors, which were previously effective upon certain events set forth in the Stock Grant Agreement, will now become effective upon the last to occur of (i) receipt of all of the shares of common stock underlying the Series C Preferred Stock and (ii) the date that the shares of common stock underlying the Series C Preferred Stock are registered for re-sale in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined below).

 

In addition, the Purchase Agreement (subject to the survival of certain provisions identified in the Remediation Agreement), the Supplemental Agreement and the Exchange Agreement were terminated, the Series B Preferred Stock issued to OFI was cancelled and the Company issued to OFI 6,217,490 shares of newly-designated Series D Preferred Stock. In addition, OFI agreed to purchase $100,000 of shares of Series D Preferred Stock for a purchase price of $0.65 per share on the last day of each month, commencing on September 30, 2018, until it has purchased an aggregate of $500,000 of shares of Series D Preferred Stock; provided that, upon closing of any material business combination involving the Company that is approved by OFI, OFI agreed to purchase an additional $1,500,000 of shares of Series D Preferred Stock at a price of $0.65 per share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the date that stockholder approval of the Remediation Agreement has been obtained, instead of purchasing shares of Series D Preferred Stock, OFI agreed to purchase shares of common stock at a price of $0.65 per share.

 

The Remediation Agreement also terminated two voting agreements, dated December 22, 2017, among OFI, the Note Holders and certain other security holders, the registration rights agreement, dated December 22, 2017, between the Company and OFI (the “ OFI Registration Rights Agreement ”), and the registration rights agreement, dated December 22, 2017, between the Company and the Note Holders (the “ Note Holder Registration Rights Agreement ”).

 

The terms of the Series C Preferred Stock are governed by a certificate of designation (the “ Series C Certificate of Designation ”) filed by the Company with the Nevada Secretary of State on September 24, 2018. Pursuant to the Series C Certificate of Designation, the Company designated 7,485,627 shares of its preferred stock as Series C Preferred Stock. Following is a summary of the material terms of the Series C Preferred Stock:

 

Dividends . Except for stock dividends or distributions for which adjustments are to be made pursuant to the Series C Certificate of Designation, holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, and the Company shall pay, dividends on shares of Series C Preferred Stock equal (on an as-if-converted-to-common-stock basis) to and in the same form as dividends actually paid on shares of common stock when, as and if such dividends are paid on shares of common stock. No other dividends shall be paid on shares of Series C Preferred Stock.

 

Liquidation . Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary (a “ Liquidation ”), holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the assets, whether capital or surplus, of the Company the same amount that a holder of common stock would receive if the Series C Preferred Stock were fully converted to common stock immediately prior to such Liquidation, which amount shall be paid to the holders of Series C Preferred Stock pari passu with all holders of Series D Preferred Stock and in preference to the holders of common stock.

 

Voting Rights . Except as provided by law or by the other provisions of the Series C Certificate of Designation, the holders of Series C Preferred Stock have no voting rights.

 

Conversion . On the date on which stockholder approval with respect to the Remediation Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby has been obtained (the “ Conversion Date ”), each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be automatically converted into such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock as is determined by dividing $1.00 by the conversion price in effect on the Conversion Date. The conversion price is initially equal to $1.00, subject to adjustment as described in the Series C Certificate of Designation.

 

Redemption . The Series C Preferred Stock is not redeemable.

The terms of the Series D Preferred Stock are governed by a certificate of designation (the “ Series D Certificate of Designation ”) filed by the Company with the Nevada Secretary of State on September 24, 2018. Pursuant to the Series D Certificate of Designation, the Company designated 9,294,414 shares of its preferred stock as Series D Preferred Stock. Following is a summary of the material terms of the Series D Preferred Stock:

 

Dividends . Holders of shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall receive cumulative dividends, pro rata among such holders, prior to and in preference to any dividend on outstanding common stock at the per annum rate of 8% of the Stated Value (as defined below). Dividends on each share of Series D Preferred Stock will accrue daily and be cumulative from and including the date of issuance thereof and shall be payable upon the occurrence of a Liquidation or a conversion. The “ Stated Value ” shall mean $1.00 per share, subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to the Series D Preferred Stock. Holders shall also be entitled to receive dividends on shares of Series D Preferred Stock equal (on an as-if-converted-to-common-stock then convertible) to and in the same form as dividends actually paid on shares of common stock when, as and if such dividends are paid on shares of the common stock.

 

Liquidation . Upon a Liquidation, holders of Series D Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the assets, whether capital or surplus, of the Company the same amount that a holder of common stock would receive if the Series D Preferred Stock were fully converted to common stock immediately prior to such Liquidation, which amount shall be paid to the holders of Series D Preferred Stock pari passu with all holders of Series C Preferred Stock and in preference to the holders of common stock.

 

Voting Rights . Except as provided by law or by the other provisions of the Series D Certificate of Designation, the holders of Series D Preferred Stock have no voting rights. However, as long as any shares of Series D Preferred Stock are outstanding, the holders of Series D Preferred Stock shall have the right to prohibit or veto the Company from entering into any agreement or taking any action with respect to (i) a Change in Control Transaction (as defined below) or (ii) the issuance any equity securities or equity-linked securities at a price per share below $0.6505, subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to the common stock. The Company must notify the holders of Series D Preferred Stock at least twenty (20) days in advance of the events described above and the holder shall exercise its veto right by notifying the Company in writing within fifteen (15) days after the receipt of such notice that it is exercising its veto right to prohibit such agreement from being entered into or action from being taken. A “ Change in Control Transaction ” means the acquisition by any person of beneficial ownership of more than 50% (on a fully diluted basis) of either (i) the then outstanding shares of common stock, taking into account as outstanding for this purpose such common stock issuable upon the exercise of options or warrants, the conversion of convertible stock or debt, and the exercise of any similar right to acquire such common stock or (ii) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors.

 

Conversion . On the Conversion Date, each share of Series D Preferred Stock, plus accrued, but unpaid, dividends thereon (the “ Aggregate Preference Amount ”), shall be automatically converted into such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock as is determined by a formula (computed on the Conversion Date) (i) the numerator of which is equal to the Aggregate Preference Amount and (ii) the denominator of which is equal to the conversion price. The conversion price is initially equal to $1.00, subject to adjustment as described in the Series D Certificate of Designation.

 

Redemption . The Series D Preferred Stock is not redeemable.

 

As promptly as possible following the date of the Remediation Agreement (and in no event later than 30 days thereafter), the Company is required to prepare and file a preliminary proxy statement relating to stockholder approval of (i) the Remediation Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and (ii) the issuance of common stock upon conversion of all shares of Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock issued under the Remediation Agreement. The Company is required to call, give notice of and hold a stockholders meeting relating to such stockholder approval reasonably promptly after the date that any comments from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”) on the proxy statement have been resolved or the final proxy statement is otherwise ready for dispatch.

 

Registration Rights Agreement

 

On September 24, 2018, in connection with the Remediation Agreement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement (the “ Registration Rights Agreement ”) with OFI and the Note Holders, pursuant to which the Company agreed to register all shares of common stock that may be issued upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the Remediation Agreement, as well as all other shares of the Company’s capital stock held by OFI (the “ Registrable Securities ”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”). The Company agreed to file a registration statement covering the resale of such Registrable Securities within 30 days of the date of the Registration Rights Agreement and cause such registration statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as soon as possible but, in any event, no later than 120 days following the filing date if such registration statement is filed on Form S-3 or 150 days if such registration statement is filed on Form S-1. If such registration statement is not filed or declared effective by the SEC on or prior to such dates, or if after such registration statement is declared effective, without regard for the reason thereunder or efforts therefor, such registration statement ceases for any reason to be effective for more than an aggregate of 30 trading days during any 12-month period, which need not be consecutive, then in addition to any other rights the holders of Registrable Securities may have under the Registration Rights Agreement or under applicable law, the Company shall pay to each holder an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1.0% of the product obtained by multiplying (x) $1.00 by (y) the number of shares of Registrable Securities held by the holder (the “ Investment Amount ”); provided that, in no event will the Company be liable for liquidated damages in excess of 1.0% of the Investment Amount in any single month and that the maximum aggregate liquidated damages payable to the holders under the Registration Rights Agreement shall be ten percent (10%) of the Investment Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the filing and effective date deadlines above shall be tolled (i.e., extended), during such time as the Company is actively pursuing a business combination involving the Company that is approved by each of OFI and the Note Holders.

Services Agreement

 

On September 24, 2018, in connection with the Remediation Agreement, the Company entered into a services agreement (the “ Services Agreement ”) with the Note Holders, pursuant to which each of the Note Holders agreed to provide certain services to the Company and/or its subsidiaries in exchange for certain cash payments set forth in the Services Agreement. Under the Services Agreement, the Company agreed to make payments to Dr. Dolev Rafaeli, Dennis M. McGrath and Yoav Ben-Dror in the amount of $21,328.16, $6,653.56, and $10,310.42, respectively, per month (collectively, the “ Cash Payments ”) until December 31, 2018, provided that Cash Payments to Dr. Rafaeli and Mr. McGrath shall be made bi-monthly in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices. The Company may, at its option, prepay the Cash Payments at any time without any penalty or premium. The Company and the Note Holders agreed that if the Company instructs the Note Holders to cease providing the services or otherwise attempts to or does terminate the Note Holders as service providers for any reason, such cessation of services or termination will not affect the Company’s obligation to make the Cash Payments.

 

In addition to the Cash Payments, the Services Agreement provides that Dr. Dolev Rafaeli and Dennis M. McGrath will continue to receive the employee benefits that they are currently receiving through December 31, 2018, including existing health and disability benefits, and for so long after December 31, 2018 as they continue to provide the services described in the Services Agreement. After December 31, 2018 and once Dr. Dolev Rafaeli and Dennis M. McGrath no longer provide such services, as previously agreed in their employment agreements with the Company, they will receive COBRA coverage for a period of 18 months, to be fully paid for, or reimbursed to Messrs. Rafaeli and McGrath, by the Company.

REMEDIATION AGREEMENT

 

This Remediation Agreement (hereinafter the “ Agreement ”) is dated as of September 24, 2018, by and between FC Global Realty Incorporated , a Nevada corporation (the “ Company ”), Opportunity Fund I-SS, LLC , a Delaware limited liability company (“ OFI ”), and the other parties signatory hereto.

 

RECITALS

 

A.       On October 12, 2017, the Company issued to Dolev Rafaeli, Dennis M. McGrath and Yoav Ben-Dror (each a “ Note Holder ” and, collectively the “ Note Holders ”) Secured Convertible Promissory Notes in the principal amounts of $3,133,934, $977,666 and $1,515,000, respectively (the “ Notes ”). Pursuant to the terms of the Notes, the principal was to convert to shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “ Common Stock ”), at maturity at the lower of (i) the Per Share Price, which equated to a price of $2.5183 or (ii) the volume-weighted average price (“ VWAP ”) with respect to on-exchange transactions in the Company’s Common Stock executed on The Nasdaq Stock Market (“ Nasdaq ”) (or such other market on which the Company’s stock may then trade) during the thirty (30) trading days prior to the maturity date, as reported by Bloomberg L.P.; provided, however, that there was a conversion floor of $1.75 per share (the “ Floor Price ”).

 

B.       On December 22, 2017, the Company and the Note Holders entered into a stock grant agreement (the “ Stock Grant Agreement ”) to, among other things, cause the early conversion of the Notes into an aggregate of 5,628,291 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “ Payout Shares ”), resulting in a conversion price of $0.9997, which is less than the Floor Price. In addition, pursuant to the Stock Grant Agreement, the Company agreed to (i) issue an additional 1,857,336 shares of Common Stock to the Note Holders as consideration for the various agreements of the Note Holders contained in the Stock Grant Agreement (the “ Additional Shares ”), including the Note Holders’ agreement to give up their first priority security interest and convert the Notes to equity and (ii) provide the Note Holders with certain cash payments (the “ Cash Payments ”) in consideration for services to be provided by the Note Holders, in an amount equal to the amount of interest foregone by the Note Holders as a result of the conversion of the Notes.

 

C.        On December 22, 2017, the Company and OFI entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “ OFI Purchase Agreement ”) pursuant to which OFI may invest up to $15,000,000 in the Company in a series of closings, in exchange for which OFI will receive shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $1.00 per share. To date, the Company and OFI completed the three closing under the OFI Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which OFI provided, in the aggregate $3,825,000 to the Company in exchange for an aggregate of 3,825,000 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock.

 

D.       Pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation for the Series B Preferred Stock (the “ Series B Certificate of Designation ”), the Series B Preferred Stock, which votes on an as-converted basis, was issued to OFI with a conversion price that constitutes a discount to the market price of the Common Stock at the date of issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock, resulting in the Series B Preferred Stock having a greater voting rights than the existing shares of Common Stock, which violates the Nasdaq Voting Rights rule. On April 20, 2018, the Company and OFI entered into a Supplemental Agreement (the “ Supplemental Agreement ”), pursuant to which (i) OFI agreed to limit the voting power of the Series B Preferred Stock, to address this violation, and (ii) the parties thereto corrected a violation of the Listing Rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market that require approval from the Company’s stockholders prior to the issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock issued under the OFI Purchase Agreement that are in excess of 19.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock on the date of initial issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock to OFI, which resulted from a provision in the OFI Purchase Agreement that incorrectly stated that such percentage is to be calculated as of the applicable conversion date of the Series B Preferred Stock instead of the date of initial issuance thereof.

 

 

 

 

E.       The Company was notified by letter from Nasdaq dated April 10, 2018, that it is not in compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), which requires the Company to maintain a minimum of $2.5 million in stockholders’ equity.

 

F.       The parties hereto desire to enter into this Agreement and take all necessary steps contemplated by this Agreement in order to comply with Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) and address the concerns of the Staff of the Nasdaq regarding the shareholder approval violations described above.

 

G.       FC Global will hold a special meeting of its shareholders (the “ Shareholders’ Meeting ”) as soon as possible after the date hereof in order to obtain the approval of the FC Global shareholders (the “ Shareholder Approval ”) of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including, the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock and the Series D Preferred Stock into Common Stock.

 

AGREEMENT

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises herein contained, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

 

1.              Unwinding of Transactions with the Note Holders . The Company and the Note Holders hereby agree to the following:

 

(a)            Termination of the Stock Grant Agreement . Upon execution of the Agreement, the Stock Grant Agreement will automatically terminate and will be of no further force or effect and no party shall have any liability to any other party arising thereunder.

 

(b)            Cancellation of the Payout Shares .

 

(i)                  Each of the Note Holders hereby agrees to surrender to the Company the Payout Shares issued to it under the Stock Grant Agreement free and clear of all claims, charges, liens, contracts, rights, options, security interests, mortgages, encumbrances and restrictions of every kind and nature, in each case, to the extent incurred by each of the Note Holders or any of its assignees (collectively, “ Claims ”) for cancellation concurrently with, and against delivery of, the issuance of Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 1(c) hereof (it being acknowledged that any rights of the Company to or with respect to any of the Payout Shares other than under this Agreement shall not be a Claim). After such cancellation and receipt of the Series C Preferred Stock by each of the Note Holders or its assignees, each of the Note Holders acknowledges and agrees that all such Payout Shares shall no longer be outstanding, and each of the Note Holders shall have no further rights with respect to the Payout Shares or the equity ownership in the Company represented thereby.

 

2  

 

 

(ii)                Each of the Note Holders hereby represents and warrants that such Note Holder owns the Payout Shares issued to it under the Stock Grant Agreement beneficially and of record, free and clear of all Claims other than Claims in favor of the Company or any assignee of the Company under this Agreement or otherwise.

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

 

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

 

13  

 

 

The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(d), (i) no Person involved in the sale of Registrable Securities which Person is guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) in connection with such sale shall be entitled to contribution from any Person involved in such sale of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (ii) no Holder shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

 

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

 

6.             Reports Under the Exchange Act . With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 or any other similar rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any time permit the Holders to sell Registrable Securities of the Company to the public without registration, the Company agrees, for so long as Registrable Securities are outstanding and held by the Holders, to:

 

(a)          make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood, defined and required in Rule 144;

 

(b)          file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and

 

(c)          furnish to each Holder so long as such Holder owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, such information as may be reasonably and customarily requested to permit the Holders to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.

 

7.             Assignment of Registration Rights . The rights under this Agreement shall be automatically assignable by the Note Holders and OFI to any permitted transferee of all or any portion of their Registrable Securities if: (i) the transferor agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company within five (5) Business Days after such assignment; (ii) the Company is, within five (5) Business Days after such transfer or assignment, furnished with written notice of (a) the name and address of such transferee or assignee, and (b) the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned; (iii) immediately following such transfer or assignment the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws; (iv) at or before the time the Company receives the written notice contemplated by clause (ii) of this sentence the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions contained herein; and (v) such transfer shall have been made in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Remediation Agreement.

 

14  

 

 

8.            Miscellaneous .

 

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

 

(b)             No Piggyback on Registrations . Neither the Company nor any of its security holders (other than the Holders in such capacity pursuant hereto) may include securities of the Company in a Registration Statement other than the Registrable Securities, and the Company shall not during the Effectiveness Period enter into any agreement providing any such right to any of its security holders.

 

(c)             Compliance . Each Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.

The Company may provide appropriate stop orders to enforce the provisions of this paragraph.

 

(e)             Piggy-Back Registrations . If at any time during the Effectiveness Period there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall send to each Holder written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen calendar days after receipt of such notice, any such Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities such holder requests to be registered, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of registration rights.

 

15

Each Holder acknowledges that no other Holder will be acting as agent of such Holder in enforcing its rights under this Agreement. Each Holder shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Holder to be joined as an additional party in any Proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that each of the Holders has been provided with the same Registration Rights Agreement for the purpose of closing a transaction with multiple Holders and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Holder.

Annex A

Plan of Distribution

 

The Selling Stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or quoted or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

 

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits Investors;

 

block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

privately negotiated transactions;

 

through the writing of options on the shares;

 

to cover short sales made after the date that this Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission;

 

broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 

a combination of any such methods of sale; and

 

any other method permitted by applicable law.

 

The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), if available, rather than under this prospectus. The selling stockholders shall have the sole and absolute discretion not to accept any purchase offer or make any sale of shares if it deems the purchase price to be unsatisfactory at any particular time.

 

The selling stockholders, alternatively, may sell all or any part of the shares offered in this prospectus through an underwriter. The selling stockholders have not entered into any agreement with a prospective underwriter and there is no assurance that any such agreement will be entered into.

 

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

 

 

 

The selling stockholders or their respective pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest, may also sell the shares directly to market makers acting as principals and/or broker-dealers acting as agents for themselves or their customers. Such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders and/or the purchasers of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as principal or both in amounts to be negotiated. Market makers and block purchasers purchasing the shares will do so for their own account and at their own risk. It is possible that a selling stockholder will attempt to sell shares of common stock in block transactions to market makers or other purchasers at a price per share which may be below the then existing market price. We cannot assure that all or any of the shares offered in this prospectus will be issued to, or sold by, the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders and any brokers, dealers or agents, upon effecting the sale of any of the shares offered in this prospectus, may be deemed to be “underwriters” as that term is defined under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of such acts. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.

 

In connection with the sale of our common stock, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The selling stockholders and any other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the shares will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations under such act, including, without limitation, Regulation M. These provisions may restrict certain activities of, and limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares by, the selling stockholders or any other such person. In the event that any of the selling stockholders are deemed an affiliated purchaser or distribution participant within the meaning of Regulation M, then the selling stockholders will not be permitted to engage in short sales of common stock. Furthermore, under Regulation M, persons engaged in a distribution of securities are prohibited from simultaneously engaging in market making and certain other activities with respect to such securities for a specified period of time prior to the commencement of such distributions, subject to specified exceptions or exemptions. In addition, if a short sale is deemed to be a stabilizing activity, then the selling stockholders will not be permitted to engage in a short sale of our common stock. All of these limitations may affect the marketability of the shares.

 

 

 

 

If a selling stockholder notifies us that it has a material arrangement with a broker-dealer for the resale of the common stock, then we would be required to amend the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, and file a prospectus supplement to describe the agreements between the selling stockholder and the broker-dealer.

 

The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.

 

We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, including fees and disbursements of counsel to the selling stockholders, but excluding brokerage commissions or underwriter discounts.

 

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.

 

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

The Company and the Service Providers are sometimes individually referred to in this Agreement as a “ Party ” and, collectively, as the “ Parties .”

Each of the Service Providers agree that the Company may, at its option, prepay the Cash Payments at any time without any penalty or premium. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company instructs the Service Providers to cease providing the Services or otherwise attempts to or does terminate the Note Holders as Service Providers for any reason, such cessation of Services or termination will not affect the Company’s obligation to make the Cash Payments.

(b) The Company and the Service Providers shall mutually agree upon what portion of the Cash Payments shall be deemed to be compensation for the aforementioned Services and shall treat such portion of the Cash Payments as compensation for the Services described above. Dr. Dolev Rafaeli and Dennis M. McGrath will continue to receive the employee benefits that they are currently receiving thru December 31, 2018, including existing health and disability benefits, and for so long after December 31, 2018 as they continue to provide the Services described above.
