ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS UNLAWFUL; 

 

(z)The Purchaser acknowledges that the Securities have not been recommended by any federal or state securities commission or regulatory authority. In making an investment decision, investors must rely on their own examination of the Company and the terms of the Offering, including the merits and risks involved. Furthermore, the foregoing authorities have not confirmed the accuracy or determined the adequacy of this Subscription Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense. The Securities are subject to restrictions on transferability and resale and may not be transferred or resold except as permitted under the Securities Act and the applicable state securities laws or pursuant to registration or exemption therefrom.

The legend to be placed on each certificate shall be in form substantially similar to the following:

ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING REQUIREMENTS

 

	The USA PATRIOT Act

	What is money laundering?

	How big is the problem and why is it important?

	The USA PATRIOT Act is designed to detect, deter, and punish terrorists in the United States and abroad. The Act imposes new anti-money laundering requirements on brokerage firms and financial institutions. Since April 24, 2002 all brokerage firms have been required to have new, comprehensive anti-money laundering programs.

 

To help you understand these efforts, we want to provide you with some information about money laundering and our steps to implement the USA PATRIOT Act.

	Money laundering is the process of disguising illegally obtained money so that the funds appear to come from legitimate sources or activities. Money laundering occurs in connection with a wide variety of crimes, including illegal arms sales, drug trafficking, robbery, fraud, racketeering, and terrorism

	The use of the U.S. financial system by criminals to facilitate terrorism or other crimes could well taint our financial markets. According to the U.S. State Department, one recent estimate puts the amount of worldwide money laundering activity at $1 trillion a year.

 

What are we required to do to eliminate money laundering?

 

Under new rules required by the USA PATRIOT Act, our anti-money laundering program must designate a special compliance officer, set up employee training, conduct independent audits, and establish policies and procedures to detect and report suspicious transaction and ensure compliance with the new laws.

 

As part of our required program, we may ask you to provide various identification documents or other information. Until you provide the information or documents we need, we may not be able to effect any transactions for you.

August 5, 2020

 

Univest Securities, LLC

As Placement Agent for the Investors

375 Park Avenue, 15th Floor

New York, NY 10152

 

Re: Registration Rights Agreement

 

 

Reference is made to the Confidential Private Placement Memorandum, dated June 15, 2020 (the “Memorandum”) of Marizyme, Inc. (the “Company”) relating to a private placement offering (the “Offering”) for sale up to $9,000,000 (the “Maximum Amount”), in shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Shares”), at a price per share of 1.25, for a total of up to 7,200,000 Shares, as amended by Supplement No. 1 to the Memorandum, dated August 5, 2020 and as it may be further amended or supplemented from time to time, the accompanying Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) and all other annexes and exhibits (collectively, the “Offering Materials”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this letter agreement, shall their respective meanings ascribed to them in the Memorandum or the Subscription Agreement.

 

This registration rights letter agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) confirms our understanding with respect to registration of the securities sold pursuant to the Offering Material: 

 

(a)Piggy-Back Registration Rights. If at any time after the initial Closing Date, the Company determines to file a registration statement under the Securities Act to register the offer and sale, by the Company, of Common Stock (other than (i) on Form S-4 or Form S-8 under the Securities Act or any successor forms thereto or (ii) a registration of securities solely relating to an offering and sale to employees or directors of the Company pursuant to any employee stock plan or other employee benefit plan arrangement) (a “Registration Statement”), the Company shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, give written notice to Univest Securities, LLC, acting on behalf of the Investors (the “Placement Agent”), of its intention to so register the offer and sale of Common Stock and, upon the written request, given within five (5) Business Days after delivery of any such notice by the Company, of the Placement Agent to include in such registration the Shares (collectively, the “Registrable Securities”) (which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be included in such registration), the Company shall cause all such Registrable Securities to be included in such Registration Statement on the same terms and conditions as the Common Stock otherwise being sold pursuant to such registered offering, which shall be reviewed by counsel to the Placement Agent at least one (1) Business Day prior to filing such Registration Statement with the Commission.  

 

(b)Registration Procedures. The Company will, as expeditiously as possible:  

 

(i) (w) prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to remain effective for the period of the distribution contemplated thereby, (x) promptly provide to the Placement Agent copies of all filings and Commission letters of comment and notify the Placement Agent (by telecopier, by PDF and by e-mail addresses provided by the Placement Agent) on or before the second (2nd) Business Day thereafter that the Company receives notice that (A) the Commission has no comments or no further comments on the Registration Statement, and (B) the Registration Statement has been declared effective and (y) file with the Commission an acceleration request within two (2) days that it is notified that the Commission has no comments or no further comments on the Registration Statement and (z) subject to the rights of the other holders of securities registered on the Registration Statement, remove from the Registration Statement any securities other than the Registrable Securities if the Commission determines that all of the securities being registered cannot be registered.  

 

(ii)prepare and file with the Commission (x) such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective until such Registration Statement has been effective for a period of one (1) year, and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement in accordance with each Investor’s intended method of disposition set forth in such Registration Statement for such period and (y) additional registration statements registering any Registrable Securities that the Commission does not permit to be registered under such Registration Statement; 

 

(iii)furnish to the Placement Agent, at the Company’s expense, such number of copies of the Registration Statement and the prospectus included therein (including each preliminary prospectus) as the Placement Agent reasonably may request in order to facilitate the public sale or the disposition of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement, or make them electronically available; 

 

 

(iv)as applicable, list or make available for quotation the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement with any securities exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock of the Company is then listed or quoted; 

 

(v)notify the Placement Agent within two (2) Business Days of the happening of any event of which the Company has knowledge as a result of which the prospectus contained in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing, or which becomes subject to a Commission, state or other governmental order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement covering any of the Registrable Securities; and
