ARTICLE II 

OPTIONAL CONVERSION

 

The Holder, in its sole option, shall have the right to convert the principal due under this Note into Shares of the Borrower’s Common Stock as set forth below.

 

2.1Conversion into the Borrower’s Common Stock.

 

(a)Conversion Right. At the Holder’s sole discretion, the Holder shall have the right from and after the date of the issuance of this Note and then at any time until this Note is fully paid, to convert any outstanding and unpaid principal portion of this Note at the election of the Holder (the date of giving of such notice of conversion in accordance with Section 2.3(a) being a “Conversion Date”) into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as such stock exists on the date of issuance of this Note, or any shares of capital stock of Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified, at the conversion price as defined in Section 2.1(b) hereof (the “Conversion Price”), determined as provided herein.

 

Upon delivery to the Borrower of a completed notice of conversion, a form of which is annexed hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Conversion”), Borrower shall issue and deliver to the Holder within three (3) business days after the Conversion Date (such third day being the “Delivery Date”) that number of shares of Common Stock for the portion of the Note converted in accordance with the foregoing. At the election of the Holder, the Borrower will deliver accrued but unpaid interest on the Note, if any, through the Conversion Date directly to the Holder on or before the Delivery Date. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon 

 

Page 2 of 18

 

each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing that portion of the principal of the Note and interest, if any, to be converted, by the Conversion Price. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless the entire principal amount of this Note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, has been so converted. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this Note in an amount equal to the applicable conversion listed on the Notice of Conversion. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal amount(s) converted and the date of such conversion(s). In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error.

 

(b)Conversion Price. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.1(c) hereof, the conversion price per share shall be equal to $0.0001 (“Conversion Price”). The Conversion Price may be adjusted pursuant to the other terms of this Note.

 

(c)Effect of Certain Events. The Conversion Price and number and kind of shares or other securities to be issued upon conversion determined pursuant to Section 2.1(a), shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events while this conversion right remains outstanding, as follows:

 

A.Reclassification, etc. If the Borrower at any time shall, by reclassification or otherwise, change the Common Stock into the same or a different number of securities of any class or classes that may be issued or outstanding, this Note, as to the unpaid principal portion thereof, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to purchase an adjusted number of such securities and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the Common Stock immediately prior to such reclassification or other change.

 

B.Stock Splits, Combinations and Dividends. If the shares of Common Stock are subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or if a dividend is paid on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced in case of subdivision of shares or stock dividend or proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares, in each such case by the ratio which the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event.

 

(d)Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 2.1(c) above, the Borrower shall promptly mail to the Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. The Borrower shall, upon the written request at any time of the Holder, furnish to such Holder a like certificate setting forth (i) such adjustment or readjustment, (ii) the Conversion Price at the time in effect and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon conversion of the Note at the sole expense of the Borrower.

 

(e)Further Adjustments. In case at any time or, from time to time, the Borrower shall take any action that affects the Common Stock or other class of securities into which this Note may be converted under Article II, other than an action described herein, then, unless such action will not have a material adverse effect upon the rights of the Holder, the number of shares of such class of Common Stock (or other securities) into which this Note is convertible shall be adjusted in such a manner and at such time as shall be equitable under the circumstances.

 

(f)Voluntary Adjustments. The Borrower may at any time during the term of this Note reduce the then current Conversion Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Borrower.

 

2.2Authorized Shares. The Borrower covenants that during the period the conversion right exists, the Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares, free from preemptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of this Note.

 

Page 3 of 18

 

2.3Method of Conversion. This Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part as described in Section 2.1(a) hereof. Upon partial conversion of this Note, a new Note containing the same date and provisions of this Note shall, at the request of the Holder, be issued by the Borrower to the Holder for the principal balance of this Note and interest which shall not have been converted or paid.

(a)Mechanics of Conversion. This Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part at any time from time to time after the Issue Date, by (A) submitting to the Borrower a copy of an executed Notice of Conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (via facsimile, electronic mail (email) or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date on or prior to 11:59 p.m., New York, New York time). The Conversion Date specified in the Notice of Conversion shall be the Conversion Date so long as the Notice of Conversion is received by the Borrower before 11:59 p.m., New York, New York time, on such date.

 

(b)Borrower’s Response. Upon receipt by the Borrower of a copy of a Notice of Conversion, the Borrower shall as soon as practicable, but in no event later than two (2) business days after receipt of such Conversion Notice, send, via facsimile or electronic mail (email) (or otherwise deliver) a confirmation of receipt of such Conversion Notice (the “Conversion Confirmation”) to the Holder indicating that the Borrower will process such Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms herein. In the event the Borrower fails to issue its Conversion Confirmation within said two (2) Business Day time period, the Holder shall have the absolute and irrevocable right and authority to deliver the fully executed Conversion Notice to the Borrower’s transfer agent, and the Borrower’s transfer agent shall issue the applicable shares of Common Stock specified in such Conversion Notice (the “Conversion Shares”) to Holder as hereby provided. To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless the entire principal amount of this Note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and other sums due hereunder, has been so converted. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding sums owing under this Note in an amount stated in each applicable conversion notice. The Holder and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the principal and/or interest amount(s) converted and the date of such conversion(s).

 

(c)Delivery of Common Stock Upon Conversion. Upon receipt by the Borrower from the Holder of a facsimile transmission (or other reasonable means of communication) of a Notice of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion as provided in this Section 2.3, the Borrower shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered to or upon the order of the Holder the electronic transfer (as described in Section 2.3 (e) herein below) the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within three (3) business days after such receipt (and, solely in the case of conversion of the entire unpaid principal amount hereof, surrender of this Note) (such fifth business day being hereinafter referred to as the “Deadline”) in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(d)Obligation of Borrower to Deliver Common Stock Absolute. Upon submission by the Holder to the Borrower of a Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion, and, unless the Borrower defaults on its obligations under this Article II, all rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities, cash or other assets, as herein provided, on such conversion. If the Holder shall have given a Notice of Conversion as provided herein, the Borrower’s obligation to issue and deliver the certificates for Common Stock shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the absence of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any person or any action to enforce the same, any failure or delay in the enforcement of any other obligation of the Borrower to the holder of record, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder of any obligation to the Borrower or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other person or entity, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Borrower to the Holder in connection with such conversion.

(e)Delivery of Common Stock by Electronic Transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Borrower’s transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program 

 

Page 4 of 18

 

or any similar program hereafter adopted by DTC performing substantially the same function, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions contained in Section 2.1 and in this Section 2.3, the Borrower shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system.

 

(f)Failure to Deliver Common Stock Prior to Deadline. Without in any way limiting the Holder’s right to pursue other remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if delivery of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note is more than two (2) business days after the Deadline the Borrower shall pay to the Holder $1,000 per day in cash or stock under the terms of this Note, for each day beyond the Deadline that the Borrower fails to deliver such Common Stock. Such cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the fifth (5th) day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by written notice to the Borrower by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to the principal amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note.

 

(g)Rescindment of Conversion Notice. Without in any way limiting the Holder’s right to pursue other remedies, including actual damages and/or equitable relief, the parties agree that if (A) the Borrower fails to respond to Holder with a Conversion Confirmation pursuant to Section 2.3(b), (B) the Borrower fails to deliver of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note is more than two (2) business days after the Deadline, (C) the Holder is unable to procure a legal opinion required to have the Common Stock issued unrestricted and/or deposited to sell for any reason related to the Borrower’s standing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or FINRA, or any action or inaction by the Borrower, (D) the Holder is unable to deposit the Common Stock requested in the Conversion Notice for any reason related to the Borrower’s standing with the SEC or FINRA, or any action or inaction by the Borrower, (E) if the Holder is informed by the Borrower that the Borrower does not have enough Common Stock authorized to satisfy the Conversion Notice, or (F) if OTC Markets, Inc. f/k/a “Pink Sheets” changes the Borrower’s designation to ‘Limited Information’ (Yield), ‘No Information’ (Stop Sign), ’Caveat Emptor’ (Skull and Crossbones), or ‘OTC’, ‘Other OTC’ or ‘Grey Market’ (Exclamation Mark Sign) on any day after the date of the Conversion Notice prior to delivery of such Common Stock, the Holder may, at the Holder’s sole discretion, rescind or void the Conversion Notice (“Rescindment Notice”) by notifying the Borrower in the same manner that a Conversion Notice is required to be delivered to the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Note. If the Holder chooses to provide the Borrower a timely Rescindment Notice, the Borrower shall pay to the Holder $2,000 per day in cash or stock under the terms of this Note, for each day that the Borrower was in violation of A-F in this Section 2.3(g) up until the day the Holder submits a Rescindment Notice to the Borrower. Such cash amount shall be paid to Holder by the fifth (5th) day of the month following the month in which it has accrued or, at the option of the Holder (by written notice to the Borrower by the first day of the month following the month in which it has accrued), shall be added to the principal amount of this Note, in which event interest shall accrue thereon in accordance with the terms of this Note and such additional principal amount shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note.

 

(h)Transfer Taxes and Legal Opinions. Without limitation, the issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the Holder hereof for any legal opinion fees, documentary stamp or similar taxes, or any other issuance or transfer fees of any nature or kind that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificates, any such taxes or fees, if payable, to be paid by the Borrower. The Borrower agrees, at the Borrower’s sole expense, to provide the Holder with a valid and reasonably accepted legal opinion concerning the issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of this Note. If the Holder is required to obtain a legal opinion, the Borrower shall reimburse the Holder $2,000 which may be deducted from the principal received by the Conversion Notice.

 

2.4Concerning the Shares. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless (i) such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) or (ii) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have been furnished with an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel 

 

Page 5 of 18

 

in comparable transactions) to the effect that the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration or (iii) such shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act (or a successor rule) (“Rule 144”) or (iv) such shares are transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144) of the Borrower who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the shares only in accordance with this Section 2.4. Until such time as the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note have been registered under the Act or an exemption that permits removal of the legend, shall bear a legend substantially in the following form, as appropriate:

 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT, OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM, SUBSTANCE AND SCOPE CUSTOMARY FOR OPINIONS OF COUNSEL IN COMPARABLE TRANSACTIONS, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR REGULATION S UNDER SAID ACT.”

 

The legend set forth above shall be removed and the Borrower shall issue to the Holder a new certificate therefor free of any transfer legend if (i) the Borrower or its transfer agent shall have received an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Common Stock may be made without registration under the Act and the shares are so sold or transferred, (ii) such Holder provides the Borrower or its transfer agent with reasonable assurances that the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note (to the extent such securities are deemed to have been acquired on the same date) can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or current public information requirements as determined by the counsel to the Borrower as set forth in a written opinion letter to such effect and addressed to the Transfer Agent and the Holder, or (iii) in the case of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, such security is registered for sale by the Holder under an effective registration statement filed under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the holding period of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note under Rule 144(d) shall be deemed to have commenced as of October 22, 2019 (the most recent issuance date of the Exchange Securities exchanged for this Note pursuant to the Exchange Agreement) and, accordingly, a failure to remove legends from Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note shall cause liquidated damages to accrue pursuant to Section 2.3 herein. In any event, and subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, the Holder may enter into lawful hedging transactions in the course of hedging the position it assumes and the Holder may also enter into lawful short positions or other derivative transactions relating to the Common Stock or other securities, or interests in the Common Stock or other securities, and deliver the Common Stock or other securities, or interests in the Common Stock, to close out its short or other positions or otherwise settle other transactions, or loan or pledge the Common Stock, or interests in the Common Stock, to third parties who in turn may dispose of the Common Stock.

2.5Holder’s Conversion Limitations. The Borrower shall not effect any conversion of this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note, to the extent that after giving effect to the conversion set forth on the applicable Notice of Conversion, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)) would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon conversion of the remaining, unconverted principal amount of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Borrower subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2.5, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2.5 applies, the 

 

Page 6 of 18

 

determination of whether this Note is convertible (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which principal amount of this Note is convertible shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Note may be converted (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates or Attribution Parties) and which principal amount of this Note is convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. To ensure compliance with this restriction, the Holder will be deemed to represent to the Borrower each time it delivers a Notice of Conversion that such Notice of Conversion has not violated the restrictions set forth in this paragraph and the Borrower shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2.5, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) the Borrower’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Borrower, or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Borrower or the Borrower’s transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Borrower shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Borrower, including this Note, by the Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note held by the Holder. The Holder, upon notice to the Borrower, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2.5, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note held by the Holder and the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2.5 shall continue to apply. Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Borrower. The Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2.5 to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Note.

 

2.6Status as Shareholder. Upon submission of a Notice of Conversion by the Holder, (i) the shares covered thereby shall be deemed converted into shares of Common Stock and (ii) the Holder’s rights as a Holder of such converted portion of this Note shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such shares of Common Stock and to any remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such Holder because of a failure by the Borrower to comply with the terms of this Note or the Exchange Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Holder has not received certificates for all shares of Common Stock prior to the tenth (10th) business day after the expiration of the Deadline with respect to a conversion of any portion of this Note for any reason, then (unless the Holder otherwise elects to retain its status as a holder of Common Stock by so notifying the Borrower) the Holder shall regain the rights of a Holder of this Note with respect to such unconverted portions of this Note and the Borrower shall, as soon as practicable, return such unconverted Note to the Holder or, if the Note has not been surrendered, adjust its records to reflect that such portion of this Note has not been converted. In all cases, the Holder shall retain all of its rights and remedies including, without limitation, (i) the right to receive Default Interest and Default Amounts for any Event of Default and (ii) the right to have the Default Interest and Default Amounts added to the principal amount of this Note which shall be convertible into Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Note.

ARTICLE VI

MISCELLANEOUS

 

6.1Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder hereof in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver, election, or acquiescence thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by the party granting the waiver and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given. All rights and remedies existing hereunder are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available provided for by law, or in equity.

 

Page 11 of 18

 

 

6.2Demand Waiver. Borrower hereby waives: (i) demand, notice of default, delinquency or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, notice of acceleration, nonpayment at maturity, notice of costs, expenses and losses and interest thereon, notice of late charges; (ii) all defenses and pleas on the grounds of any release, compromise, settlement, extension, or extensions of the time of payment or any due date under this Note, in whole or in part, whether before or after maturity and with or without notice; and (iii) diligence in taking any action to collect any sums owing under this Note or in proceeding against any the rights and interests in and to properties securing payment of this Note such as, but not limited to, the renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by the Holder on which Borrower is liable.

 

6.3Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, shall be (i) personally served, (ii) deposited in the mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (iii) delivered by reputable air courier service with charges prepaid, or (iv) transmitted by hand delivery, electronic mail (email), or facsimile, to such address as such party shall have specified most recently by written notice. Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be deemed effective (a) upon hand delivery, when received, (b) upon email or facsimile, upon confirmation of receipt by the recipient, or (c) on the third business day following the date of mailing by express courier service, fully prepaid, addressed to such address, or upon actual receipt of such mailing, whichever shall first occur.

 

6.4Amendment Provision. The term “Note” and all reference thereto, as used throughout this instrument, shall mean this instrument as originally executed, or if later amended or supplemented in writing, then as so amended or supplemented.

 

6.5Assignability. The Holder, without consent from or notice to anyone, may at any time assign the Holder’s rights in this Note, the Borrower’s obligations under this Note, or any part thereof. This Note shall be binding upon the Borrower and their respective legal representatives, heirs and its successors, and shall inure to the benefit of the Holder and its successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees. The Borrower may not assign its obligations under this Note.

 

6.6Cost of Collection. Borrower shall pay to the Holder, on demand and if demanded, prior to any conclusion of any action related hereto, the amount of any and all expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, appellate attorney’s fees, legal costs and expenses, as well as collection agency fees and costs, any of which the Holder, whether or not the Holder agrees to dismiss an action upon payment of sums allegedly due, obtains substantially the relief sought or may incur in connection with (a) enforcement or collection of this Note following an Event of Default; (b) exercise or enforcement of any the rights, remedies or powers of the Holder hereunder or with respect to any or all of the obligations under this Note upon breach or threatened breach; or (c) failure by Borrower to perform and observe any agreements of Borrower contained herein.

 

6.7Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of laws principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. Any action brought by either party against the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement must be brought only in the civil or state courts of New York or in the federal courts located in the State and county of New York. Both parties and the individual signing this Agreement on behalf of the Borrower agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs at both the trial and appellate level. In the event that any provision of this Note is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or unenforceability of any other provision of this Note in any other jurisdiction. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude the Holder from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the Borrower in any other jurisdiction to collect on the Borrower’s obligations to Holder, to realize on any collateral or any other security for such obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other decision in favor of the Holder. This Note shall be deemed an unconditional obligation of Borrower for the 

 

Page 12 of 18

 

payment of money and, without limitation to any other remedies of Holder, may be enforced against Borrower by summary proceeding pursuant to New York Civil Procedure Law and Rules Section 3213 or any similar rule or statute in the jurisdiction where enforcement is sought. For purposes of such rule or statute, any other document or agreement to which Holder and Borrower are parties or which Borrower delivered to Holder, which may be convenient or necessary to determine Holder’s rights hereunder or Borrower’s obligations to Holder are deemed a part of this Note, whether or not such other document or agreement was delivered together herewith or was executed apart from this Note.

 

6.8Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER AND THE HOLDER EACH HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, INTENTIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF OR BETWEEN ANY PARTY HERETO, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THE BORROWER AGREES AND CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING TO HOLDER OF RELIEF FROM ANY STAY ORDER WHICH MIGHT BE ENTERED BY ANY COURT AGAINST HOLDER AND TO ASSIST HOLDER IN OBTAINING SUCH RELIEF. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR BOTH PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL. THE BORROWER’S REASONABLE RELIANCE UPON SUCH INDUCEMENT IS HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGED.

 

6.9Certain Amounts. Whenever pursuant to this Note the Borrower is required to pay an amount in excess of the outstanding principal amount (or the portion thereof required to be paid at that time) plus accrued and unpaid interest plus Default Interest on such interest, the Borrower and the Holder agree that the actual damages to the Holder from the receipt of cash payment on this Note may be difficult to determine and the amount to be so paid by the Borrower represents stipulated damages and not a penalty and is intended to compensate the Holder in part for loss of the opportunity to convert this Note and to earn a return from the sale of shares of Common Stock acquired upon conversion of this Note at a price in excess of the price paid for such shares pursuant to this Note. The Borrower and the Holder hereby agree that such amount of stipulated damages is not plainly disproportionate to the possible loss to the Holder from the receipt of a cash payment without the opportunity to convert this Note into shares of Common Stock. To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Borrower hereby agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in connection with any claim, action or proceeding that may be brought by the Holder in order to enforce any right or remedy under this Note.

 

6.10Usury Savings Clause. Borrower and Holder intend to contract in compliance with all state and federal usury laws governing the loan evidenced by this Note. Holder and Borrower agree that none of the terms of this Note shall be construed to require payment of interest at a rate in excess of the maximum interest rate allowed by any applicable state, federal or foreign usury laws. If Holder receives sums which constitute interest that would otherwise increase the effective interest rate on this Note to a rate in excess of that permitted by any applicable law, then all such sums constituting interest in excess of the maximum lawful rate shall at Holder’s option either be credited to the payment of principal or returned to Borrower.

 

Notwithstanding any provision in this Note to the contrary, the total liability for payments of interest and payments in the nature of interest, including, without limitation, all charges, fees, exactions, or other sums which may at any time be deemed to be interest, shall not exceed the limit imposed by the usury laws of the jurisdiction governing this Note or any other applicable law. In the event the total liability of payments of interest and payments in the nature of interest, including, without limitation, all charges, fees, exactions or other sums which may at any time be deemed to be interest, shall, for any reason whatsoever, result in an effective rate of interest, which for any month or other interest payment period exceeds the limit imposed by the usury laws of the jurisdiction governing this Note, all sums in excess of those lawfully collectible as interest for the period in question shall, without further agreement or notice by, between, or to any party hereto, be applied to the reduction of the outstanding principal balance due hereunder immediately upon receipt of such sums by the Holder hereof, 

 

Page 13 of 18

 

with the same force and effect as though the Borrower had specifically designated such excess sums to be so applied to the reduction of the principal balance then outstanding, and the Holder hereof had agreed to accept such sums as a penalty-free payment of principal; provided, however, that the Holder may, at any time and from time to time, elect, by notice in writing to the Borrower, to waive, reduce, or limit the collection of any sums in excess of those lawfully collectible as interest, rather than accept such sums as a prepayment of the principal balance then outstanding. It is the intention of the parties that the Borrower does not intend or expect to pay, nor does the Holder intend or expect to charge or collect any interest under this Note greater than the highest non-usurious rate of interest which may be charged under applicable law.

 

6.11Maximum Payments. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, any payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be credited against amounts owed by the Borrower to the Holder and thus refunded to the Borrower, the manner of handling such excess to be at the Holder’s election.

 

6.12Further Assurances. At any time or from time to time after the date hereof, the Parties agree to cooperate with each other and, at the request of any other Party, to execute and deliver any further instruments or documents and to take all such further action as the other Party may reasonably request in order to evidence or effectuate the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and to otherwise carry out the intent of the Parties hereunder.

 

6.13Remedies. The Borrower acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder, by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Borrower acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Note will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Borrower of the provisions of this Note, that the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies at law or in equity, and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or injunctions restraining, preventing or curing any breach of this Note and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

 

6.14No Impairment. The Borrower will not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation or By- Laws or other organizational document, or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, sale of assets or any other voluntary action, willfully avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Note, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder under this Note against impairment or dilution.

 

6.15Substitute Note or Notes. Upon (i) receipt by the Borrower of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation hereof, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Borrower in customary form, or (ii) the request of the Holder of this Note upon surrender hereof, the Borrower shall execute and deliver in lieu hereof, a new Note or Notes, payable to the order of the Holder or such persons as the Holder may request and in a principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount hereof, which shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest has theretofore been paid hereon. Each such Note shall in all other respects be in the same form and be treated the same as this Note and all references herein to this Note shall apply to each such Note. This Note is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder at the principal office of the Borrower, for a new Note or Notes representing in the aggregate the outstanding Principal of this Note, and each such new Note will represent such portion of such outstanding Principal as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender.

 

6.16Absolute Obligation. No provision of this Note shall alter or impair the obligation of the Borrower, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, accrued interest, Default Amounts, or damages as applicable, on this Note at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. This Note is a direct, unconditional and secured debt obligation of the Borrower.

 

Page 14 of 18

 

 

6.17Relationship. The relationship of the parties to this Note is determined solely by the provisions of this Note. The parties do not intend to create any agency, partnership, joint venture, trust, fiduciary or other relationship with duties or incidents different from those of parties to an arm’s-length contract.

 

6.18Entire Agreement. This Note and any instruments and agreements to be executed pursuant to this Note, sets forth the entire agreement and understanding of the Parties with respect to its subject matter of this Note and supersedes, merges and replaces all prior and contemporaneous understandings, discussions and negotiations, oral or written, regarding the same subject matter which shall remain in full force and effect and may not be altered or modified, except in writing and signed by the party to be charged thereby, and supersedes any and all previous discussions between the parties relating to the subject matter thereof.

 

6.19Counterparts. This Note may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when this Note has been signed by the Borrower and delivered to any other party, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, by email in “portable document format” (“.pdf”), electronic signature or other similar electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of this Note, such signature shall have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing original signature and create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature were an original thereof.

 

6.20Counsel. The parties expressly acknowledge that each has been advised to seek separate counsel for advice in this matter and has been given a reasonable opportunity to do so.

 

6.21Headings. The headings in this Note are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Note.

 MEMBERSHIP INTEREST PURCHASE AGREEMENT 

This Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into on August 16, 2021, by and among Village
Farms International, Inc. a Canadian federal corporation (“Buyer”), Balanced Health Botanicals, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (the “BHB”), and the members of BHB as set forth on Schedule A hereto (each a
“Seller” and, collectively, the “Sellers”). Buyer, BHB, and each Seller are referred to collectively herein as the “Parties” and individually as a “Party”. Unless otherwise
expressly set forth herein, the capitalized terms used herein shall have the definitions set forth in ARTICLE 9. 
 PRELIMINARY
STATEMENT 
 Sellers collectively own all of the outstanding equity interests of BHB (collectively, the “Target
Securities”). BHB owns all of the outstanding equity interests in each of the Subsidiaries of BHB as set forth on Schedule B (each a “Company”, collectively the “Companies” or the “Company
Group”). Sellers desire to sell to Buyer the Target Securities and Buyer desires to purchase from Sellers all (but not less than all) of the Target Securities, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. The
acquisition of the Target Securities shall be effected through the purchase thereof by Buyer, with cash funded by Buyer and Buyer Shares issued by Buyer. 

AGREEMENT 
 Now, therefore, in
consideration of the premises and the mutual promises herein made, and in consideration of the representations, warranties, and covenants herein contained, the Parties agree as follows. 

ARTICLE 1 
 PURCHASE AND SALE OF
TARGET SECURITIES 
 1.1 Basic Transaction. In accordance with the terms and upon the conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing,
Sellers shall (a) sell to Buyer and transfer, assign, convey and deliver to Buyer all right, title and interest in and to all of the Target Securities, free and clear of all Liens, and (b) Buyer shall purchase, and shall accept delivery of
and acquire from Sellers, all right, title and interest in and to all of the Target Securities, free and clear of all Liens. 
 1.2
Purchase Price. The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for the Target Securities shall consist of: 

(a) Cash in an amount equal to (i) Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000.00 USD), minus (iv) the Debt Amount, minus
(v) the Transaction Expenses Balance, minus (vi) the Working Capital Deficit, if any, and minus (viii) the Representative Expense Fund Amount (collectively, the “Cash Payment”), all as subject to
adjustment as provided in this ARTICLE 1; and 
 (b) 4,707,113 Buyer Shares (the “Equity
Consideration”), which the Parties acknowledge to be an amount of Buyer Shares equal to Forty-Five Million Dollars ($45,000,000.00 USD) divided by the price per Buyer Share calculated based on the volume weighted average trading
price of the Buyer Shares on Nasdaq for the ten (10) trading days ending one Business Day prior to the Closing Date. 

 1.3 Estimated Cash Payment. Seller Representative has delivered to Buyer (a) a
certificate signed by the Seller Representative setting forth Sellers’ best estimate of the Debt Amount, Transaction Expenses Balance, Working Capital as of the Closing Date, the Working Capital Deficit, if any, the Representative Expense Fund
Amount in each case as of the Closing Date and, based on such estimates, a calculation of the Cash Payment (the “Estimated Cash Payment”) and (b) all records and work papers necessary to compute and verify the
information set forth in such certificate. 
  

	 	1.4	 Payments and Buyer Shares. 

 

	 	(a)	 Closing Cash Payments. At the Closing, Buyer shall: 

(i) pay the Estimated Cash Payment to Sellers pursuant to Section 1.4(d), less the Indemnity Holdback and
the Adjustment Holdback. 
 (ii) pay the Debt Amount, if any, pursuant to the payoff letters delivered by Seller
Representative to Buyer pursuant to Section 5.1(i); 
 (iii) pay the Transaction Expenses Balance
pursuant to the direction of Seller Representative; 
 (iv) deposit the Indemnity Holdback by wire transfer of immediately
available funds into an account designated by the Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Account”); 
 (v)
deposit the Representative Expense Fund Amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds into the Representative Expense Fund; and 

(vi) retain the Adjustment Holdback. 

(b) Payment of Equity Consideration. At the Closing, Buyer shall issue the Equity Consideration to Sellers according to their respective
Pro Rata Shares evidenced by restricted DRS advice statements from Buyer’s transfer agent (or Buyer shall alternatively provide evidence to Sellers of a signed and delivered irrevocable treasury direction of Buyer to its transfer agent to
promptly issue such restricted DRS advice statements to Sellers) and such Buyer Shares shall remain Restricted Shares with the applicable legend(s) (as specified in Sections 2.1(g) and 2.1(h)) and a stop order placed thereon
until the later of the date on which (i) the legend(s) thereon have been removed (or have expired) in accordance with the terms thereof (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with an effective Registration Statement) and
(ii) they are no longer Restricted Shares. 
 (c) Cash Payment Adjustment. Within five (5) Business Days after the Cash
Payment becomes final and binding in accordance with Section 1.5: 

  
 -2- 

 (i) if the Cash Payment exceeds the Estimated Cash Payment, then such excess
shall be paid by Buyer to Sellers in cash, and the Adjustment Holdback shall be released to Sellers pursuant to Section 1.4(d); or 

(ii) if the Estimated Cash Payment exceeds the Cash Payment, then such excess shall be paid by Sellers, first from the
Adjustment Holdback and then, if the Adjustment Holdback is not sufficient to cover such difference, then directly from Sellers to Buyer in cash pursuant to their respective Pro Rata Shares. In the event that a portion of the Adjustment Holdback
remains subsequent to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.4(c)(ii), then any remaining amounts of the Adjustment Holdback shall be paid in cash to Sellers pursuant to Section 1.4(d). 

(d) Payments. All payments to Sellers pursuant to this Section 1.4 shall be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by Seller Representative in writing in accordance with such Seller’s Pro Rata Share. Seller Representative shall be responsible for ensuring the accuracy of all applicable Pro
Rata Shares and wire instructions for the Members. All payments, if any, to Buyer pursuant to this Section 1.4 shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Buyer in writing. 

1.5 Cash Payment Determination. Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Buyer may, but shall not
be required to, prepare and deliver to Seller Representative (a) a statement setting forth Buyer’s calculation of the Working Capital as of the Closing Date, the Working Capital Deficit, if any, and Debt Amount, Transaction Expenses
Balance, the Representative Expense Fund Amount, and the Cash Payment (the “Closing Statement”), and (b) all records and work papers reasonably necessary, in the determination of Buyer, to compute and verify the information set
forth in the Closing Statement to the extent such records and work papers differ from the ones previously delivered to Buyer. If Seller Representative, on behalf of Sellers, has any objections to the Closing Statement prepared by Buyer, then Seller
Representative will deliver a detailed written statement (the “Objections Statement”) describing (a) which items on the Closing Statement have not been prepared in accordance with this Agreement, (b) the basis for
Sellers’ disagreement with the calculation of such items, and (c) Sellers’ proposed dollar amount for each item in dispute, to Buyer within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Closing Statement. If Seller Representative fails
to deliver an Objections Statement within such thirty (30) day period, then the Closing Statement shall become final and binding on all Parties. Sellers shall be deemed to have agreed with all amounts and items contained or reflected in the
Closing Statement to the extent such amounts or items are not disputed in the Objections Statement. If Seller Representative delivers an Objections Statement within such thirty (30) day period, then Sellers and Buyer will use commercially
reasonable efforts to resolve any such disputes, but if a final resolution is not obtained within thirty (30) days after Seller Representative has submitted any Objections Statements, any remaining matters which are in dispute will be resolved
by RSM US LLP (the “Accountants”). The Accountants will prepare and deliver a written report to Buyer and Seller Representative and will submit a proposed resolution of such unresolved disputes promptly, but in any event within
thirty (30) days after the dispute is submitted to the Accountants. The Accountants’ determination of such unresolved disputes will be final and binding upon all Parties; provided, however, that no such determination shall be
any more favorable to Buyer than is set forth in the Closing Statement or any more favorable to Sellers than is proposed in the Objections 

  
 -3- 

 Statement. The costs, expenses and fees of the Accountants shall be borne by the Party whose calculation of
the Cash Payment has the greatest difference from the final Cash Payment as determined by the Accountants under this Section 1.5; otherwise, such costs, fees and expenses shall be borne equally by Buyer, on the one hand,
and Sellers, pursuant to their Pro Rata Shares, on the other hand. The final Closing Statement, however determined pursuant to this Section 1.5, will produce the Working Capital Deficit, if any, Debt Amount, and Transaction
Expenses Balance to be used to determine the final Cash Payment. If Buyer does not prepare a Closing Statement within sixty (60) days of the Closing Date, then the certificate provided by the Seller Representative pursuant to
Section 1.3 shall be determinative of the final Cash Payment calculation. 
 1.6 Calculations. All
calculations of Working Capital under this Agreement, whether estimates or otherwise, shall be determined in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied, specifically including any calculations or adjustments required by ASC 842 for a “public
business entity” as defined therein. 
 1.7 Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the
“Closing”) shall occur via electronic exchange of executed documents on the date hereof (the “Closing Date”). All transactions contemplated herein to occur on and as of the Closing Date shall be deemed
to have occurred simultaneously and to be effective as of 12:00 a.m. eastern time on such date (the “Effective Time”). At the Closing, the Parties shall make all of the deliveries set forth in ARTICLE 5. 

1.8 Withholding. The Parties and any other applicable withholding agent will be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable
pursuant to or as contemplated by this Agreement any Taxes or other amounts required under the Code or any applicable Law to be deducted and withheld, and, to the extent that any amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts will be treated for
all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. 
 1.9
Allocation. The Parties agree that the Purchase Price (as adjusted herein), as increased by the liabilities of the Companies as of the Closing Date (to the extent properly taken into account pursuant to the provisions of Section 1060 of
the Code, and any other items constituting consideration (to the extent known at such time) for applicable income Tax purposes pursuant to the provisions of Section 1060 of the Code), shall be allocated for income Tax purposes among the assets
of the Companies in accordance with the methodology set forth on Schedule 1.9 (the “Allocation”). Each of Buyer and each Seller shall prepare and file all of their respective Tax Returns in a manner consistent
with the Allocation and shall not agree to any proposed settlement or adjustment with respect thereto with any taxing authority unless required to do so by applicable Law.

identifying the Sellers as selling securityholders of Registrable Shares (the “Prospectus Supplement”) within three (3) Business Days of the later of (i) the Closing or (ii) the date that the Sellers

treasury order, on a rush basis, authorizing such transfer agent, as the registrar and transfer agent for the Buyer Shares, to remove all legends on the Buyer Shares that are included as Registrable Shares in the Prospectus Supplement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer’s sole obligation with respect to such legend removal shall be the delivery of such treasury order, and Buyer shall have no liability to any Seller or any other Party, and shall not be deemed to have made
any representation or assurance, with respect to the actual time elapsed between the submission of such treasury order and the removal of any such applicable legends. It is understood and acknowledged that the only evidence that the Sellers whose

Registration Statement or any supplement to any prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement (including any Prospectus Supplement) contains a Material Misstatement. In the case of any such notice, Buyer shall use best efforts to
supplement or amend such prospectus as promptly as practicable so that such prospectus will not contain such Material Misstatement and shall provide a copy of such supplemented or amended prospectus to each Seller as promptly as

  
 -37- 

 
practicable, but no later than three (3) Business Days following the filing thereof with the SEC. Upon being notified by Buyer of any Material Misstatement, each Seller shall refrain from
selling any Registrable Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement until such holders of Buyer Shares receive from Buyer copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus prepared and filed by Buyer, or until Buyer notifies such Sellers in writing
that the then current prospectus may be used. 
 (d) Following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, Buyer shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be continuously effective until earlier of (i) three (3) years after the date hereof and (ii) such time as the Registrable Shares represent less than one percent (1%) of the
outstanding Buyer Shares (such period, the “Registration Period”). If the Registration Statement ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time during the Registration Period, Buyer shall use its best
efforts to promptly cause such Registration Statement to again become effective under the Securities Act (including obtaining the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement), and in any event shall
within thirty (30) days of such cessation of effectiveness, amend such Registration Statement in a manner reasonably expected to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or, file an
additional registration statement for an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act registering the resale from time to time by Sellers thereof of all securities that are Registrable Shares as
of the time of such filing. If such an additional registration statement is filed, Buyer shall use its reasonable efforts to (a) cause such additional registration statement to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is
reasonably practicable after such filing, and (b) keep such additional registration statement (or another additional registration statement) continuously effective until the end of the Registration Period. Buyer shall supplement and amend any
Registration Statement or additional registration statement contemplated hereunder if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by Buyer for such registration statement if required by the Securities
Act or as reasonably requested by the Sellers. 
 (e) From the date of this Agreement until the end of the Registration Period, Buyer shall
use best efforts to make and keep public all of the issuer information contemplated by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required to be filed by Buyer under the Securities Act
and the Securities Exchange Act, in each case in order to permit resale of the Buyer Shares issued as the Equity Consideration in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act. 

(f) All expenses (other than Selling Expenses) incurred in connection with registrations, filings, or qualifications pursuant to
Section 4.5, including all registration, filing, and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, and fees and disbursements of counsel for Buyer shall be borne and paid by Buyer. All Selling Expenses relating to

controlling Person, or other aforementioned Person expressly for use in connection with the applicable Registration Statement and/or Prospectus Supplement (ii) due to any Seller’s failure to deliver an amended or supplemental prospectus
furnished to such Seller by Buyer, if required by Law to have been delivered, if such loss, liability, claim, damage, judgment or expense would not have arisen had such delivery occurred.

Section 6.1(b), Sellers will have no liability with respect to such matters until Buyer Indemnitees have suffered aggregate Adverse Consequences by reason of all such breaches in excess of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars
($300,000.00 USD) (the “Threshold”) after which point Sellers shall be obligated to indemnify Buyer Indemnitees from and against all Adverse Consequences from dollar one; provided, that the foregoing limitations shall not
apply in respect of any Adverse Consequences relating to (i) breaches of the Fundamental Representations, (ii) any intentional breach of a representation or warranty, or (iii) breaches arising from fraud or willful misconduct.

their respective Affiliates (following the Closing) is a beneficiary, the amount for which such Buyer Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under Section 6.1 shall be reduced by the amount of insurance or other
indemnification proceeds actually received (net of any costs or expenses incurred in obtaining such recoveries, including any increases in insurance premiums reasonably attributable to the applicable claim). In the event that any Buyer Indemnitee
receives insurance proceeds after being paid by the Sellers with respect to an indemnifiable matter under this Article 6, Buyer Indemnitee in receipt of such insurance proceeds will remit such proceeds to the Seller Representative (net
of any costs or expenses incurred in obtaining such recoveries, including any resulting increases in insurance premiums) for the benefit of the Sellers according to their respective Pro Rata Shares; provided that the remittance of such
insurance proceeds shall not exceed the amount previously paid by the applicable Seller(s) with respect to such matter. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) nothing in this section shall be deemed to waive or limit the subrogation rights of any
insurer and (ii) nothing in this section shall be deemed to impose any obligation on Buyer to pursue recovery from any such insurance or third-party agreement, nor to maintain any of the same.

ARTICLE 6, then the Indemnified Party must promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the existence of such Third-Party Claim and must deliver copies of any documents served on the Indemnified Party with respect to the
Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that any failure on the part of an Indemnified Party to so notify an Indemnifying Party shall not limit any of the obligations of the Indemnifying Party under this ARTICLE 6 (except to the
extent, and only to the extent, such failure materially prejudices the defense of such proceeding). 
 (ii) Upon receipt of
the notice described in Section 6.6(a)(i), the Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third- Party Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, provided,
that (i) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within fifteen (15) days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third-Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party will indemnify the Indemnified Party from and
against the entirety of any Adverse Consequences the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third-Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with
evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will have the financial resources to defend against the Third-Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, (iii) the Third-Party Claim

actively and diligently, and (vi) such Third- Party Claim is not related to a Material Supplier or Material Customer. The Indemnifying Party will keep the Indemnified Party apprised of all material developments, including settlement offers,

 -46- 

 (iii) In the event that either (x) any of the conditions under
Section 6.6(a)(ii) is or becomes unsatisfied or (y) the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that there are likely to be defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those asserted by
Indemnifying Party, then, in either case, (i) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to direct the defense of such Third-Party Claim (and/or consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to the
Third-Party Claim) in any manner the Indemnified Party may reasonably deem appropriate, including, without limitation, by employing separate counsel at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, (ii) the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the

(b) Direct Claims. 

(i) Any claim for indemnification on account of Adverse Consequences which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a
“Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by written notice from the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party as soon as reasonably practicable (and in any event within thirty (30) days) after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of
the Direct Claim, which notice shall include a reasonable description of the basis for the Direct Claim; provided, however, that any failure on the part of an Indemnified Party to so notify an Indemnifying Party shall not limit any of
the obligations of the Indemnifying Party under this ARTICLE 6 (except to the extent, and only to the extent, such failure materially prejudices the defense of such proceeding). The Indemnifying Party shall have fifteen (15) days after
its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to a Direct Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such fifteen-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have accepted such
claim, with payment due on such claim pursuant to the terms of Section 6.6(b)(ii).

are so due) by setting off such amounts against any and all Restricted Shares that are subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 4.3 of this Agreement, and upon Buyer’s exercise of such setoff Seller

so against each Seller’s Restricted Shares according to the Sellers’ Pro Rata Shares. Neither the exercise nor the failure to exercise such right of set off will constitute an election of remedies or limit Buyer in any manner in the
enforcement of any other remedies that may be available to it.

acting in good faith), shall be released to the Sellers in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares to an account or account designated in writing by the Seller Representative, provided, however, that if at the end of the twelve
(12) month period following the Closing Date (a) other than with respect to a breach of any Fundamental Representations or any matter set forth on Schedule 6.1(a)(v)(h), (i), or
(j), there has been no claim for indemnification made by any Buyer Indemnitee; (b) with respect to a breach of any Fundamental Representations there have been no claims for indemnification by any Buyer Indemnitee claiming Adverse

(x) Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000.00 USD) minus (y) any amount previously released to any Buyer Indemnitee in satisfaction of any indemnification claim hereunder. 

ARTICLE 7 
 TAX MATTERS 

The following provisions will govern the allocation of responsibility as between Buyer and Sellers for certain tax matters following the
Closing Date: 
 7.1 Tax Indemnification. Except to the extent such Taxes are actually reflected as a liability for purposes of
calculating Working Capital or included in the Transaction Expenses Balance on the Closing Statement, Sellers, jointly and severally, shall be liable for, and shall indemnify and hold Buyer Indemnitees harmless pursuant to Article 6 from,
(a) all Pre-Closing Taxes, (b) all Taxes incurred by any Company caused by or resulting from the sale or exchange of the Target Securities, (c) for any Straddle Period, all Pre-Closing Taxes of each Company that relate to a Pre-Closing Straddle Period (determined in accordance with the last sentence of Section 7.3), (d) any and
all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of which any Company (or any predecessor of any of the foregoing) is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date, including pursuant to Treasury Regulation § 1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar Law, (d) all Taxes of any Person imposed on any Company as a transferee or successor, by Contract or otherwise, which Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring
before the Closing, and (e) all sales taxes or any other Taxes relating to the sale of goods or inventory by any Company. 

  
 -49- 

 7.2 Tax Periods Ending on or Before the Closing Date. Sellers will prepare, or cause
to be prepared, and Sellers will timely file, or cause to be filed, all income Tax Returns for the Company Group for Pre-Closing Tax Periods that are filed after the Closing Date (“Pre-Closing Tax Period Returns”). All such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner acceptable to Buyer. Sellers will provide Buyer with copies of any such Tax Returns for the Buyer’s
reasonable review and comment, at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date thereof (giving effect to any extensions thereto) in the case of income Tax Returns and as soon as practicable in the case of all other Tax Returns, and shall make
all changes to such Pre-Closing Tax Period Returns that are reasonably proposed by Buyer. Sellers will pay all Taxes due with respect to such Pre-Closing Tax Period
Returns, but only to the extent such Taxes are not reflected as a liability for purposes of calculating Working Capital or included in the Transaction Expenses Balance on the final Closing Statement. 

7.3 Tax Periods Beginning Before and Ending After the Closing Date. Following the Closing, Buyer shall timely prepare and file, or cause
to be prepared and timely filed (taking into account all available extensions), all other Tax Returns required to be filed by each Company (the “Post-Closing Tax Returns”). Buyer will timely prepare, or cause to be prepared, and
timely file, or cause to be filed, all Tax Returns for each member of the Company Group for Straddle Periods (the “Straddle Period Returns”). Buyer will provide Seller Representative with copies of any Straddle Period Returns at
least thirty (30) days prior to the due date thereof (giving effect to any extensions thereto) in the case of income Tax Returns and as soon as practicable in the case of all other Tax Returns, accompanied by a statement (the “Straddle
Statement”) setting forth and calculating in reasonable detail the Taxes that relate to any Pre-Closing Straddle Period (the “Pre- Closing Taxes”). If Sellers agree with the
Straddle Period Return and Straddle Statement, Sellers shall pay to Buyer, not later than five (5) Business Days before the due date for the payment of Taxes with respect to such Straddle Period Return, an amount equal to the Pre-Closing Taxes as shown on the Straddle Statement, but only to the extent such Taxes are not reflected as a liability for purposes of calculating Working Capital or included in the Transaction Expenses Balance on
the Closing Statement. If, within twenty (20) days after the receipt of the Straddle Period Return and Straddle Statement, Seller Representative (a) notifies Buyer that it disputes the manner of preparation of the Straddle Period Return or
the Pre-Closing Taxes calculated in the Straddle Statement and (b) provides Buyer with a statement setting forth in reasonable detail its computation of the
Pre-Closing Taxes and its proposed form of the Straddle Period Return and Straddle Statement, then Buyer and Sellers shall attempt to resolve their disagreement within five (5) days following the Seller
Representative’s notification of Buyer of such disagreement. If Buyer and Sellers are not able to resolve their disagreement, the dispute shall be submitted to the Accountants. The Accountants will resolve the disagreement within thirty
(30) days after the date on which they are engaged or as soon as possible thereafter. The determination of the Accountants shall be binding on the Parties. The cost of the services of the Accountants will be borne by the Party whose calculation
of the matter in disagreement differs the most from the calculation as finally determined by the Accountants. If each of the Party’s calculation differs equally from the calculation as finally determined by the Accountants, then such cost will
be borne half by Sellers and half by Buyer. For purposes of this Section 7.3, in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for a Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax that relates to the
portion of such Tax period ending on the Closing Date (i.e., the Pre-Closing Taxes) will (a) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income or receipts, or payroll, be deemed to
equal the amount of such Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the number of days in
the entire Straddle Period, and (b) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income or receipts, or payroll, be deemed to equal the amount that would be payable if the relevant Straddle Period ended on and included the Closing Date. 

  
 -50- 

 7.4 Cooperation on Tax Matters. Buyer and
Sellers will cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the filing and preparation of Tax Returns pursuant to this ARTICLE 7 and any Proceeding related thereto. Such cooperation will
include the retention and (upon the other Party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional
information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Buyer and Sellers will retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company Group relating to any Pre-Closing Tax
Period until thirty (30) days after the expiration of the statute or period of limitations of the respective Tax periods, or, to the extent notified by Buyer, extensions thereof, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with
any Governmental Body. 
 7.5 Tax Controversies. Buyer shall give prompt notice to the Seller Representative of the assertion of any
claim, or the commencement of any Proceeding with respect to any Tax liability of any of the Companies for which the Sellers are responsible. The Seller Representative or any one or more of the Sellers may, at its or their own expense, participate
in any such Proceeding.

and all actions and the making of any decisions required or permitted to be taken by any Seller under this Agreement, in each case either (x) on and prior to the Closing, and (y) immediately following the Closing. Such powers shall include
the exercise of the power to: (i) give and receive notices and communications under this Agreement; (ii) receive and pay funds under this Agreement, (iii) prepare and deliver documents, certificates and instruments, and give
instructions, under this Agreement, (iv) authorize or object to claims for indemnification made by any Buyer Indemnitee under this Agreement; (v) agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and comply with orders of
courts with respect to claims for indemnification made by any Buyer Indemnitee under this Agreement; (vi) agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and comply with orders or otherwise handle any other matters specifically
delegated to Seller Representative in this Agreement; and (vii) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the good faith judgment of the Seller Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing; provided, that the Seller Representative
shall have no authority to take any action on or prior to the Closing which would bind any Company following the Closing except as provided in this Agreement or otherwise consented to in writing by the Buyer. The power of attorney hereby is coupled
with an interest and is irrevocable; provided, that the power of attorney granted by this Section shall, without any further action by any Person, be deemed automatically revoked and of no further effect with respect to any Company immediately
following the Closing. The identity of the Seller Representative and the terms of the agency may be changed, and a successor Seller Representative may be appointed, from time to time (including in the event of the death, disability or other
incapacity of the Seller Representative) by the consent of Sellers accounting for at least fifty percent of the Pro Rata Shares, and any such successor will succeed the Seller Representative as Seller Representative under this Agreement. Amounts
paid by or on behalf of Buyer to the Seller Representative on behalf of the Sellers shall be treated as received by the Sellers. 
 (b) The
Seller Representative will not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder as the Seller Representative while acting in good faith and not in a manner constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct, and any act done or omitted pursuant to
the advice of counsel will be conclusive evidence of such good faith. Each Seller will jointly and severally indemnify the Seller Representative and hold the Seller Representative harmless against any losses incurred without gross negligence or
willful misconduct on the part of the Seller Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Seller Representative’s duties hereunder. 

  
 -66- 

 (c) A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Seller Representative will constitute a
decision of all Sellers and will be final, binding and conclusive upon each Seller, and Buyer, its Affiliates, any other Buyer Indemnitee and any other Person may rely upon any decision, act, consent or instruction of the Seller Representative as
being the decision, act, consent or instruction of each Seller. Buyer, its Affiliates, any other Buyer Indemnitee, and any other Person are hereby relieved from any liability to any Person for any acts done by Seller Representative and any acts done
by Buyer, its Affiliates, any other Buyer Indemnitee and any other Person in accordance with any such decision, act, consent or instruction of the Seller Representative in accordance with this Section.

with Buyer. The Seller Representative is not providing any investment supervision, recommendations or advice and shall have no responsibility or liability for any loss of principal of the Representative Expense Fund other than as a result of gross
negligence or willful misconduct. The Seller Representative is not acting as a withholding agent or in any similar capacity in connection with the Representative Expense Fund, and has no tax reporting or income distribution obligations. The Sellers
will not receive any interest on the Representative Expense Fund and assign to the Seller Representative any such interest. As soon as reasonably determined by the seller Representative that the Representative Expense Fund is no longer required to
be withheld, and in any event not later than thirty (30) days after the later of (i) the date any remaining balance of the Indemnity Holdback is paid out to the Sellers or (ii) the date that the last indemnity claim of a Buyer
Indemnitee has been finally resolved, the Seller Representative shall distribute the then- remaining amount of the Representative Expense Fund, if any, to the Sellers according to their respective Pro Rata Shares.
