REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

This REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of October 9, 2018 by and among Astrotech Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the “Investors” who are not Affiliates of the Company and named in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 9, 2018 by and among the Company and the Investors (the “Purchase Agreement”).  Capitalized terms used herein have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Purchase Agreement unless otherwise defined herein.

The parties hereby agree as follows:

1.Certain Definitions.  

As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Investors” means the Investors identified in the Purchase Agreement and any Affiliate or permitted transferee of any Investor who is a subsequent holder of Registrable Securities.

“Prospectus” means (i) the prospectus included in any Registration Statement, as amended or supplemented by any prospectus supplement, with respect to the terms of the offering of any portion of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement and by all other amendments and supplements to the prospectus, including post-effective amendments and all material incorporated by reference in such prospectus, and (ii) any “free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act.

“Register,” “registered” and “registration” refer to a registration made by preparing and filing a Registration Statement or similar document in compliance with the 1933 Act, and the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such Registration Statement or document.

“Registrable Securities” means (i) the shares of Common Stock issued to the Investors identified in the Purchase Agreement and (ii) any other shares of Common Stock issued as a dividend or other distribution with respect to, in exchange for or in replacement of the Shares; provided, however, that any such Registrable Securities shall cease to be Registrable Securities (and the Company shall not be required to maintain the effectiveness of any, or file another, Registration Statement hereunder with respect thereto) upon the first to occur of (A) a Registration Statement with respect to the sale of such Registrable Securities being declared effective by the SEC under the 1933 Act and such Registrable Securities having been disposed of or transferred by the holder thereof in accordance with such effective Registration Statement, (B) such Registrable Securities having been previously sold or transferred in accordance with Rule 144 (or another exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act), (C) such securities becoming eligible for resale without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions and without current public information requirements pursuant to Rule 144 and (D) the eighteen month anniversary of the Closing Date.

“Registration Statement” means any registration statement of the Company under the 1933 Act that covers the resale of any of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the provisions 

 

 

of this Agreement, amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement, including post- effective amendments, all exhibits and all material incorporated by reference in such Registration Statement.

“Required Investors” means the Investors holding a majority of the Registrable Securities outstanding from time to time.

“SEC” means the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

2.Registration.  

(a)Registration Statements.  

(i)Promptly following the Closing Date but no later than fifteen (15) Business Days after the Closing Date (the “Filing Deadline”), the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC one Registration Statement covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities which, for the avoidance of doubt, may also register the sale of primary securities.  Such Registration Statement also shall cover, to the extent allowable under the 1933 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder (including Rule 416), such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions with respect to the Registrable Securities.  Upon request, such Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each request for acceleration of effectiveness thereof) shall be provided in accordance with Section 3(c) to the Investors prior to its filing or other submission.

(ii)The Company shall take commercially reasonable efforts to register the Registrable Securities on Form S-3 following the date such form is available for use by the Company, provided that if at such time the Registration Statement is on Form S-1, the Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement then in effect until such time as a Registration Statement on Form S-3 covering the Registrable Securities has been declared effective by the SEC.

(b)Expenses.  The Company will pay all expenses associated with each Registration Statement, including, without limitation, filing and printing fees, the Company’s counsel and accounting fees and expenses, costs associated with clearing the Registrable Securities for sale under applicable state securities laws and listing fees, In no event shall the Company be responsible for any discounts, commissions, fees of underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers or similar securities industry professionals with respect to the Registrable Securities being sold.  Except as provided in Section 6 hereof and except to the extent provided for in the Transaction Documents, the Company shall not be responsible for legal fees incurred by holders of Registrable Securities in connection with the performance of its rights and obligations under the Transaction Documents.

(c)Effectiveness.  The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statements declared effective as soon as practicable.  The Company shall notify the Investors by facsimile or e-mail as promptly as practicable, and in any event, within forty-eight (48) hours, after any Registration Statement is declared effective and shall simultaneously provide the Investors with access to a copy of any related Prospectus to be used in connection with the sale or other disposition of the securities covered thereby.

(d)Rule 415; Cutback.  If at any time the SEC takes the position that the offering of some or all of the Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement is not eligible to be made on a delayed or continuous basis under the provisions of Rule 415 under the 1933 Act or requires any Investor to be named as an “underwriter,” the Company shall (i) promptly notify each holder of Registrable Securities thereof and (ii) make commercially reasonable efforts to persuade the SEC that the offering contemplated by such Registration Statement is a valid secondary offering and not an offering “by or on behalf of the issuer” as defined in Rule 415 and that none of the Investors is an “underwriter.”  The Investors shall have the right to select one legal counsel designated by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to review any registration or matters pursuant to this Section 2(d) and to comment on any written submission made to the SEC with respect thereto.  No such written submission with respect to this matter shall be made to the SEC to which the Investors’ counsel reasonably objects.  In the event that, despite the Company’s commercially reasonable efforts and compliance with the terms of this Section 2(d), the SEC refuses to alter its position, the Company shall (i) remove from such Registration Statement such portion of the Registrable Securities (the “Cut Back Shares”) and/or (ii) agree to such restrictions and limitations on the registration and resale of the Registrable Securities as the SEC may require to assure the Company’s compliance with the requirements of Rule 415 (collectively, the “SEC Restrictions”); provided, however, that the Company shall not agree to name any Investor as an “underwriter” in such Registration Statement without the prior written consent of such Investor.  Any cut-back imposed on the Investors pursuant to this Section 2(d) shall be allocated among the Investors on a pro rata basis and shall be applied first to any of the Registrable Securities of such Investor as such Investor shall designate, unless the SEC Restrictions otherwise require or provide or the Investors otherwise agree.  In furtherance of the foregoing, each Investor shall provide the Company with prompt written notice of its sale of substantially all of the Registrable Securities under such Registration Statement such that the Company will be able to file one or more additional Registration Statements covering the Cut Back Shares.  

3.Company Obligations.  The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the terms hereof, and pursuant thereto the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:

(a)use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and to remain continuously effective until such time as there are no longer Registrable Securities (the “Effectiveness Period”) and advise the Investors promptly in writing when the Effectiveness Period has expired;

(b)prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to such Registration Statement and the related Prospectus as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective for the Effectiveness Period and to comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act with respect to the distribution of all of the Registrable Securities covered thereby;

(c)permit, upon request, one counsel designated by the Investors to review each Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto prior to their filing with the SEC;

(d)furnish to each Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in any Registration Statement (i) promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the SEC, if requested by the Investor, one (1) copy of any Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, each preliminary prospectus and Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each letter written by or on behalf of the Company to the SEC or the staff of the SEC, and each item of correspondence from the SEC or the staff of the SEC, in each case relating to such Registration Statement (other than any portion of any thereof which contains information for which the Company has sought confidential treatment), and (ii) such number of copies of a Prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, and all amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents as each Investor may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Investor (it being understood and agreed that such documents, or access thereto, may be provided electronically);

(e)use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness and, (ii) if such order is issued, obtain the withdrawal of any such order at the earliest possible moment;

(f)prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use commercially reasonable efforts to assist or cooperate with the Investors and their counsel in connection with their registration or qualification of such Registrable Securities for the offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions reasonably requested by the Investors; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (i) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(f), (ii) subject itself to general taxation in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be so subject but for this Section 3(f), or (iii) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction;

(g)use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market (or the primary securities exchange, interdealer quotation system or other market on which the Common Stock then listed);

(h)promptly notify the Investors, at any time prior to the end of the Effectiveness Period, upon discovery that, or upon the happening of any event as a result of

which, the Prospectus includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing, and promptly prepare, file with the SEC and furnish to such holder a supplement to or an amendment of such Prospectus as may be necessary so that such Prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit 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;

(i)otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, including, without limitation, Rule 172 under the 1933 Act, file any final Prospectus, including any supplement or amendment thereof, with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424 under the 1933 Act, promptly inform the

Investors in writing if, at any time during the Effectiveness Period, the Company does not satisfy the conditions specified in Rule 172 and, as a result thereof, the Investors are required to deliver a Prospectus in connection with any disposition of Registrable Securities and take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to facilitate the registration of the Registrable Securities hereunder; and

(j)with a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 (or its successor rule) and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investors to sell shares of Common Stock to the public without registration, the Company covenants and agrees to: (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, until the earlier of (A) six months after such date as all of the Registrable Securities may be sold without restriction by the holders thereof pursuant to Rule 144 or any other rule of similar effect or (B) such date as there are no longer Registrable Securities; (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the 1934 Act; and (iii) furnish such other information as may be reasonably requested in order to avail such Investor of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such Registrable Securities without registration.

4.Due Diligence Review; Information.  If any Investor is required under applicable securities laws to be described in a Registration Statement as an “underwriter,” the Company shall, upon reasonable prior notice, make available, during normal business hours, for inspection and review by the Investors, advisors to and representatives of the Investors (who may or may not be affiliated with the Investors and who are reasonably acceptable to the Company) (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all pertinent financial and other records, and all other corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the “Records”) as may be reasonably necessary for the purpose of such review, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees, within a reasonable time period, to supply all such information reasonably requested by the Inspectors (including, without limitation, in response to all questions and other inquiries reasonably made or submitted by any of them), prior to and from time to time after the filing and effectiveness of such Registration Statement for the sole purpose of enabling such Investor and its accountants and attorneys to conduct such due diligence solely for the purpose of establishing a due diligence defense to underwriter liability under the 1933 Act; provided, however, that each Inspector shall agree to hold in strict confidence and shall not make any disclosure (except to such Investor) or use of any Record or other information which the Company determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which determination the Inspectors are so notified, unless (a) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement or is otherwise required under the 1933 Act, (b) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a final, non-appealable subpoena or order from a court or government body of competent jurisdiction, or (c) the information in such Records has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this or any other Transaction Document.  Each Investor agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the Records deemed confidential.  Nothing herein (or in any other confidentiality agreement between the Company and any Investor) shall be deemed to limit the Investors’ ability to sell Registrable Securities in a manner which is otherwise consistent with applicable laws and regulations.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not disclose material nonpublic information to the Investors, or to advisors to or representatives of the Investors, unless prior to disclosure of such information the Company identifies such information as being material nonpublic information and provides the Investors, such advisors and representatives with the opportunity to accept or refuse to accept such material nonpublic information for review and any Investor wishing to obtain such information enters into an appropriate confidentiality agreement with the Company with respect thereto.

5.Obligations of the Investors.  

(a)Each Investor shall execute and deliver a Selling Stockholder Questionnaire prior to the Closing Date.  Each Investor shall additionally furnish in writing to the Company such other information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it, as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request.  At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of any Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Investor of the additional information the Company requires from such Investor if such Investor elects to have any of the Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (the “Registration Information Notice”).  An Investor shall provide such information to the Company no later than three (3) Business Days following receipt of a Registration Information Notice if such Investor elects to have any of the Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement.  It is agreed and understood that it shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of a particular Investor that (i) such Investor furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it as shall be reasonably required to effect the effectiveness of the registration of such Registrable Securities, and (ii) the Investor execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request, including, without limitation, a waiver of its registration rights hereunder to the extent an Investor elects not to have any of its Registrable Securities included in a Registration Statement.

(b)Each Investor, by its acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of a Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Investor has notified the Company in writing of its election to exclude all of its Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.

(c)Each Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company  of the happening of an event pursuant to Section 3(h) hereof, such Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities, until the Investor is advised by the Company that such dispositions may again be made.

(d)Each Investor covenants and agrees that it will comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the 1933 Act as applicable to it or an exemption therefrom in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement.

6.Indemnification.  

(a)Indemnification by the Company.  The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Investor and his employees and agents, successors and assigns, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any preliminary Prospectus or final Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereof or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case if and to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished by such Investor in writing specifically for use in such Registration Statement or Prospectus, (ii) the use by an Investor of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company has notified such Investor in writing that such Prospectus is outdated or defective or (iii) an Investor’s failure to send or give a copy of the Prospectus or supplement (as then amended or supplemented), if required (and not exempted) to the Persons asserting an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of Registrable Securities.

(b)Indemnification by the Investors.  Each Investor agrees, severally but not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors, officers, employees, stockholders and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the 1933 Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expense (including reasonable attorney fees) resulting from any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission of a material fact required to be stated in any Registration Statement or Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information regarding such Investor and furnished in writing by such Investor to the Company specifically for inclusion in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto.  In no event shall the liability of an Investor be greater than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such Investor upon the sale of the Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

(c)Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings.  Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided, 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 

			
	
 
	
-7-
	
 

	
 
	
 
	
 

 

 

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 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 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, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or conditioned, 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.

(d)Contribution.  If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding paragraphs (a) and (b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient to hold it harmless, other than as expressly specified therein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability 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.  In no event shall the contribution obligation of a holder of Registrable Securities be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by it upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation.

7.Miscellaneous.  

(a)Amendments and Waivers.  This Agreement may be amended only by a writing signed by the Company and the Required Investors.  The Company may take any action herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed by it, only if the Company shall have obtained the written consent to such amendment, action or omission to act, of the Required Investors.

(b)Notices.  All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made as set forth in Section 9.4 of the Purchase Agreement.

(c)Assignments and Transfers by Investors.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Investors and their respective successors and assigns.  An Investor may transfer or assign, in whole or from time to time in part, to one or more persons its rights hereunder in connection with the transfer of Registrable Securities by such Investor to such person, provided that (i) the Investor agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company within a reasonable time after such assignment; (ii) the Company is, within a reasonable time 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 1933 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; (v) such transfer shall have been made in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Purchase Agreement; and (vi) unless the transferee or assignee is an Affiliate of, and after such transfer or assignment continues to be an Affiliate of, such Investor, the amount of Registrable Securities transferred or assigned to such transferee or assignee represents at least $1 million of Registrable Securities (based on the then-current market price of the Common Stock).

(d)Assignments and Transfers by the Company.  This Agreement may not be assigned by the Company (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the Required Investors, provided, however, that in the event that the Company is a party to a merger, consolidation, share exchange or similar business combination transaction in which the Common Stock is converted into the equity securities of another Person, from and after the effective time of such transaction, such Person shall, by virtue of such transaction, be deemed to have assumed the obligations of the Company hereunder, the term “Company” shall be deemed to refer to such Person and the term “Registrable Securities” shall be deemed to include the securities received by the Investors in connection with such transaction unless such securities are otherwise freely tradable by the Investors after giving effect to such transaction.

(e)Benefits of the Agreement.  The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective permitted successors and assigns of the parties.

(h)Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof but shall be interpreted as if it were written so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereby waive any provision of law which renders any provisions hereof prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.

This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter.

(k)Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Texas without regard to the choice of law principles thereof.  Each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Texas located in Travis County and the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas for the purpose of any suit, action, proceeding or judgment relating to or arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.  Service of process in connection with any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on each party hereto anywhere in the world by the same methods as are specified for the giving of notices under this Agreement.

Each party hereto irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such courts and irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO REQUEST A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND REPRESENTS THAT COUNSEL HAS BEEN CONSULTED SPECIFICALLY AS TO THIS WAIVER.

(l)No Piggyback on Registrations.  Neither the Company nor any of its security holders (other than the Investors in such capacity pursuant hereto) may include securities of the Company in the Registration Statement other than the Registrable Securities.  Except for any prospectus supplement related to any at-the-market offering to be entered into on or after the date hereof, the Company shall not file any other registration statements, other than any registration statements on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the 1933 Act), prior to the date that a Registration Statement is first declared effective by the SEC, provided that this Section shall not prohibit the Company from filing amendments to registration statements filed prior to the date of this Agreement.

(m)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 SEC a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the 1933 Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the 1933 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 the Company’s stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall deliver to each Investor a written

notice of such determination and, if within fifteen calendar (15) days after the date of the delivery of such notice, any such Investor shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities such Investor requests to be registered; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to register any Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section that are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 (without volume restrictions or current public information requirements) promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the 1933 Act or that are the subject of a then effective Registration Statement that is available for resales or other dispositions by such Investor, provided, further, however, if the registration so proposed by the Company involves an underwritten offering of the securities so being registered for the account of the Company, to be distributed by or through one or more underwriters, and the managing underwriter of such underwritten offering shall advise the Company in writing that, in its opinion, the distribution of all or a specified portion of the Registrable Securities which the Holders have requested the Company to register concurrently with the securities being distributed by such underwriters will materially and adversely affect the distribution of such securities by such underwriters (such opinion to state the reasons therefor), then the Company will promptly furnish each such Holder of Registrable Securities with a copy of such opinion, and by providing such written notice to each such Holder, such Holder may be denied the registration of all or a specified portion of such Registrable Securities (in case of such a denial as to a portion of such Registrable Securities, such portion to be allocated pro rata among the Holders); provided, however, shares to be registered by the Company for issuance by the Company shall have first priority and each holder of Registrable Securities hereunder shall have second priority.

AT&T Inc., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein called “AT&T”, which
term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to The Bank of New York Depository (Nominee) Limited (the “Depository”), or registered assigns, the principal sum
of euro appearing on the attached Schedule of Increases and Decreases on September 5, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”), and to pay interest on said principal sum from September 4, 2018 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to
which interest has been paid or duly provided for, quarterly in arrears on March 4, June 4, September 4 and December 4 of each year, commencing on December 4, 2018 (each an “Interest Payment Date”), except for the
final Interest Payment Date, which will be on the Maturity Date and not on the final scheduled Interest Payment Date (with such interest calculated from and including the previous Interest Payment Date, to but excluding, the Maturity Date), at an
interest rate (“Interest Rate”) equal to the Applicable EURIBOR Rate, reset quarterly, plus 85 basis points (0.850%), determined as provided herein, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. The interest so payable,
and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record
Date for such interest, which shall be the close of business on the fifteenth day preceding the respective Interest Payment Date (each, a “Regular Record Date”), subject to certain exceptions. Any such interest not so punctually paid or
duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on a special record
date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes not less than 15 days prior to such special record date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent
with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture. 

The Interest Rate for each Interest Period for the Notes will be set on March 4, June 4, September 4 and December 4 of
each year, and was set for the initial Interest Period on September 4, 2018 (each such date, an “Interest Rate Reset Date”) until the principal on the Notes is paid or made available for payment (the “Principal Payment
Date”); provided that the last Interest Reset Date will be on June 4, 2023, and will be calculated for the entire Interest Period, which, for the avoidance of doubt, will include one additional day. If any Interest Rate Reset Date (other
than the initial Interest Rate Reset Date which occurred on September 4, 2018) and Interest Payment Date for the Notes would otherwise be a day that is not a EURIBOR business day, such Interest Rate Reset Date and Interest Payment Date shall be
the next succeeding EURIBOR business day, unless the next succeeding EURIBOR business day is in the next succeeding calendar month, in which case such Interest Rate Reset Date and Interest Payment Date shall be the immediately preceding EURIBOR
business day. 

  
 2 

 “EURIBOR business day” means any day that is not a Saturday or Sunday and that, in
the City of New York or the City of London, is not a day on which banking institutions are generally authorized or obligated by law to close, and is a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-time Gross Settlement Express Transfer (TARGET)
System, or any successor thereto, operates. 
 “Interest Period” shall mean the period from and including an Interest Rate Reset
Date to but excluding the next succeeding Interest Rate Reset Date and, in the case of the last such period, from and including the Interest Rate Reset Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date or Principal Payment Date, as the case may be, to
but not including such Maturity Date or Principal Payment Date, as the case may be. If the Principal Payment Date or Maturity Date is not a EURIBOR business day, then the principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall
be paid on the next succeeding EURIBOR business day and no interest shall accrue for the Maturity Date, Principal Payment Date or any day thereafter. 

The “Applicable EURIBOR Rate” shall mean the rate determined in accordance with the following provisions: 

(i) Two prior TARGET days on which dealings in deposits in euros are transacted in the euro-zone interbank market preceding each Interest
Rate Reset Date (each such date, an “Interest Determination Date”), The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch (the “Calculation Agent”), as agent for AT&T, will determine the Applicable EURIBOR Rate which shall be the rate
for deposits in euro having a maturity of three months commencing on the first day of the applicable interest period that appears on the Reuters Screen EURIBOR01 Page as of 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on such Interest Determination Date.
“Reuters Screen EURIBOR01 Page” means the display designated on page “EURIBOR01” on Reuters (or such other page as may replace the EURIBOR01 page on that service or any successor service for the purpose of displaying euro-zone
interbank offered rates for euro-denominated deposits of major banks). If the Applicable EURIBOR Rate on such Interest Determination Date does not appear on the Reuters Screen EURIBOR01 Page, the Applicable EURIBOR Rate will be determined as
described in (ii) below. 
 (ii) With respect to an Interest Determination Date for which the Applicable EURIBOR Rate does not
appear on the Reuters Screen EURIBOR01 Page as specified in (i) above, the Applicable EURIBOR Rate will be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in euro are offered by four major banks in the euro-zone interbank market selected
by AT&T (the “Reference Banks”) at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on such Interest Determination Date to prime banks in the euro-zone interbank market having a maturity of three months, and in a principal amount equal to an
amount of not less than €1,000,000 that is representative for a single transaction in such market at such time. The Calculation Agent, upon direction from 

  
 3 

 
AT&T, will request the principal euro-zone office of each of such Reference Banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, the Applicable EURIBOR Rate
on such Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean (rounded upwards) of such quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided, the Applicable EURIBOR Rate on such Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean (rounded
upwards) of the rates quoted by three major banks in the euro-zone selected by AT&T at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on such Interest Determination Date for loans in euro to leading European banks, having a maturity of three months,
and in a principal amount equal to an amount of not less than €1,000,000 that is representative for a single transaction in such market at such time; provided, however, that if the banks so selected as aforesaid by AT&T are not quoting as
mentioned in this sentence, the relevant Interest Rate for the Interest Period commencing on the Interest Rate Reset Date following such Interest Determination Date will be the Interest Rate in effect on such Interest Determination Date (i.e., the
same as the rate determined for the immediately preceding Interest Rate Reset Date). 
 The amount of interest for each day that the Notes
are outstanding (the “Daily Interest Amount”) will be calculated by dividing the Interest Rate in effect for such day by 360 and multiplying the result by the principal amount of the Notes (known as the “Actual/360” day count).
The amount of interest to be paid on the Notes for any Interest Period will be calculated by adding the Daily Interest Amounts for each day in such Interest Period. 

The Interest Rate on the Notes will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law as the same may be modified by
United States law of general application. 
 The Interest Rate and amount of interest to be paid on the Notes for each Interest Period will
be determined by the Calculation Agent. The Calculation Agent will, upon the request of any Holder of the Notes, provide the interest rate then in effect with respect to the Notes. All calculations made by the Calculation Agent shall in the absence
of manifest error be conclusive for all purposes and binding on AT&T and the Holders of the Notes. So long as the Applicable EURIBOR Rate is required to be determined with respect to the Notes, there will at all times be a Calculation Agent. In
the event that any then acting Calculation Agent shall be unable or unwilling to act, or that such Calculation Agent shall fail to duly establish the Applicable EURIBOR Rate for any Interest Period, or that AT&T proposes to remove such
Calculation Agent, AT&T shall appoint itself or another Person which is a bank, trust company, investment banking firm or other financial institution to act as the Calculation Agent. 

Any money that AT&T deposits with the Trustee or its Paying Agent for the payment of principal or any interest on this Note that remains
unclaimed for two years after the date upon which the principal and interest are due and payable, will be repaid to AT&T upon AT&T’s request unless otherwise required by mandatory provisions of any applicable unclaimed property law.
After that time, unless otherwise required by mandatory provisions of any unclaimed property law, the Holder of this Note will be able to seek any payment to which such Holder may be entitled to collect only from AT&T.

 If the Notes are issued in definitive form, payment of the principal and interest on this
Note due at the Maturity Date or upon redemption will be made at the Maturity Date or upon redemption, as the case may be, upon presentation of this Note, in immediately available funds, at the office of The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch,
the Paying Agent for the Notes, currently located at One Canada Square, London E14 5AL. The Transfer Agent and Registrar for the Notes is The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., currently located at 601 Travis Street, 16th Floor, Houston, Texas 77002. 
 Payment of interest on this Note due on an Interest
Payment Date, other than interest at maturity or upon redemption, may be paid by check mailed to the address of the Holder entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Note register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) the Depository as
Holder of the Notes or (2) a Holder of more than €5,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Notes in definitive form is entitled to require the Paying Agent to make payments of interest, other than interest due at maturity or upon
redemption, by wire transfer of immediately available funds into an account maintained by the Holder in the United States, by sending appropriate wire transfer instructions as long as the Paying Agent receives the instructions not less than ten days
prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. The principal and interest payable in euro on any of the Notes at maturity, or upon redemption, will be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds against presentation of a Note at the office
of the Paying Agent. 
 Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof, which further
provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place. 
 Unless the certificate of authentication hereon
has been executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

 REVERSE OF NOTE 

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of debt securities of AT&T of the series specified on the face hereof, issued under and
pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of May 15, 2013, between AT&T and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture), to which
indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto (collectively, the “Indenture”) reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, AT&T and
the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The Notes will be issued in fully registered form only and in minimum denominations of €100,000 and integral multiples of
€1,000 in excess thereof. This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof initially limited in aggregate principal amount to €[•]. 

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations
of AT&T and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by AT&T and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding. The Indenture also contains
provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding to waive compliance by AT&T with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their
consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or
in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. 
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no
provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of AT&T, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein
prescribed. 
 Registrar and Paying Agent 

The Paying Agent for the Notes is The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch currently located at One Canada Square, London E14 5AL
(“Paying Agent”). In addition, AT&T shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or agency where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange (“Registrar”). AT&T has
initially appointed an affiliate of the Trustee, The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, as its Paying Agent. AT&T may vary or terminate the appointment of any of its paying or transfer agencies, and may appoint additional paying or transfer
agencies. 

 Payment of Additional Amounts 

AT&T will, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth below, pay as additional interest on this Note such additional amounts
(“Additional Amounts”) as are necessary so that the net payment by AT&T or its Paying Agent of the principal of and interest on this Note to a person that is a United States Alien, after deduction for any present or future tax,
assessment or governmental charge of the United States or a political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, imposed by withholding with respect to the payment, will not be less than the amount that would have been payable in respect of
this Note had no withholding or deduction been required. As used herein, “United States Alien” means any person who, for United States federal income tax purposes, is a foreign corporation, a
non-resident alien individual, a non-resident alien fiduciary of a foreign estate or trust, or a foreign partnership one or more of the members of which is, for United
States federal income tax purposes, a foreign corporation, a non-resident alien individual or a non-resident alien fiduciary of a foreign estate or trust. 

The foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts shall not apply: 

(1) to any tax, assessment or governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely because the beneficial owner, or a fiduciary,
settlor, beneficiary or member of the beneficial owner if the beneficial owner is an estate, trust or partnership, or a person holding a power over an estate or trust administered by a fiduciary holder: 

(a) is or was present or engaged in a trade or business in the United States, has or had a permanent establishment in the
United States, or has any other present or former connection with the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein; 

(b) is or was a citizen or resident or is or was treated as a resident of the United States; 

(c) is or was a foreign or domestic personal holding company, a passive foreign investment company or a controlled foreign
corporation with respect to the United States or is or was a corporation that has accumulated earnings to avoid United States federal income tax; 

(d) is or was a bank receiving interest described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the “Code”); or 
 (e) is or was an actual or constructive owner of 10% or more of the total combined
voting power of all classes of stock of AT&T entitled to vote; 
 (2) to any Holder that is not the sole beneficial owner of the
Notes, or a portion thereof, or that is a fiduciary or partnership, but only to the extent that the beneficial owner, a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, or a member of the partnership would not have been entitled to the payment
of an Additional Amount had such beneficial owner, beneficiary, settlor or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment; 

(3) to any tax, assessment or governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely because the beneficial owner or any other person
failed to comply with certification, identification or information reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the United States of the Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes, if compliance is required
by statute, by regulation of the United States Treasury Department or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the United States is a party as a precondition to exemption from such tax, assessment or other governmental charge; 

 

  
 2 

 (4) to any tax, assessment or governmental charge that is imposed other than by
deduction or withholding by AT&T or a Paying Agent from the payment; 
 (5) to any tax, assessment or governmental charge that is
imposed or withheld solely because of a change in law, regulation, or administrative or judicial interpretation that is announced or becomes effective after the day on which the payment becomes due or is duly provided for, whichever occurs later;

 (6) to an estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, wealth or personal property tax or any similar tax, assessment or
governmental charge; 
 (7) to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge any paying agent (which term may include AT&T) must
withhold from any payment of principal of or interest on any Note, if such payment can be made without such withholding by any other paying agent; or 

(8) in the case of any combination of the above items. 

In addition, any amounts to be paid on this Note will be paid net of any deduction or withholding imposed or required pursuant to Sections
1471 through 1474 of the Code, any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b) of the Code, or any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted
pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such Sections of the Code, and no Additional Amounts will be required to be paid on account of any such deduction or withholding. 

The Notes are subject in all cases to any tax, fiscal or other law or regulation or administrative or judicial interpretation applicable.
Except as specifically provided under this section entitled “Payment of Additional Amounts” and under the heading “Redemption Upon a Tax Event”, AT&T shall not have to make any payment with respect to any tax, assessment or
governmental charge imposed by any government or a political subdivision or taxing authority. 
 Any reference in the terms of the Notes to
any amounts in respect of the Notes shall be deemed also to refer to any Additional Amounts which may be payable under this provision. 

Redemption Upon a Tax Event 

If (a) AT&T becomes or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any
regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in, or amendments to, any official position regarding the application or interpretation of such
laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective, on or after February 15, 2018 or (b) a taxing authority of the United States takes an action on or after February 15,

  
 3 

 
2018, whether or not with respect to AT&T or any of its affiliates, that results in a substantial probability that AT&T will or may be required to pay such Additional Amounts, then
AT&T may, at its option, redeem, as a whole, but not in part, the Notes on any Interest Payment Date on not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, together
with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption. No redemption pursuant to (b) above may be made unless AT&T shall have received an opinion of independent counsel to the effect that an act taken by a taxing authority of the
United States results in a substantial probability that AT&T will or may be required to pay the Additional Amounts and AT&T shall have delivered to the Trustee a certificate, signed by a duly authorized officer, stating that based on such
opinion, AT&T is entitled to redeem the Notes pursuant to their terms. 
 Further Issues 

AT&T reserves the right from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Notes, to create and issue further notes
ranking equally and ratably with the Notes in all respects, or in all respects except for the payment of interest accruing prior to the issue date or except for the first payment of interest following the issue date of those further notes. Any
further notes will have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as, and will be fungible for United States federal income tax purposes with, the Notes. Any further notes shall be issued pursuant to a resolution of the board of directors
of AT&T, a supplement to the Indenture, or under an officers’ certificate pursuant to the Indenture. 
 Notes in Definitive Form

 If (1) an Event of Default has occurred with regard to the Notes represented by this Note and has not been cured or waived in
accordance with the Indenture, or (2) the Depository is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depository and a successor depository is not appointed by AT&T within 90 days, AT&T may issue notes in definitive form in exchange
for this Note. In either instance, an owner of a beneficial interest in the Notes will be entitled to the physical delivery in definitive form in exchange for this Note, equal in principal amount to such beneficial interest and to have such Notes
registered in its name. 
 Notes so issued in definitive form will be issued as registered notes in minimum denominations of €100,000
and integral multiples of €1,000, unless otherwise specified by AT&T. 
 Notes so issued in definitive form may be transferred by
presentation for registration to the Registrar at its New York office and must be duly endorsed by the Holder or the Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form
satisfactory to AT&T or the Trustee duly executed by the Holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 

  
 4 

 AT&T may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any exchange or registration of transfer of definitive Notes. 
 Default 

In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal hereof may be declared, and upon
such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture. 

Miscellaneous 
 For
purposes of the Notes, the term “business day” means any day that is not a Saturday or Sunday and that, in the City of New York or the City of London, is not a day on which banking institutions are generally authorized or obligated by law
to close, and is a day on which the TARGET System, or any successor thereto, operates. 
 No director, officer, employee or stockholder, as
such, of AT&T shall have any liability for any obligations of AT&T under this Note, the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting this Note waives and
releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of this Note. 
 The Notes are the unsecured
and unsubordinated obligations of AT&T and will rank pari passu with all other evidences of indebtedness issued in accordance with the Indenture. 

Notices to holders of the Notes will be given only to the depositary, in accordance with its applicable policies as in effect from time to
time. 
 Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, AT&T, the Trustee and any agent of AT&T or the Trustee
may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither AT&T, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.  

The Indenture and this Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
