4. Representations and Warranties of Investor. By subscribing to the Offering, Investor (and, if Investor is purchasing the Shares subscribed for hereby in a fiduciary capacity, the person or persons for whom Investor is so purchasing) represents and warrants, which representations and warranties are true and complete in all material respects as of each Closing Date:
(a) Requisite Power and Authority. Investor has all necessary power and authority under all applicable provisions of law to subscribe to the Offering, to execute and deliver this Subscription Agreement, and to carry out the provisions of the Subscription Agreement. All action on Investor’s part required for the lawful subscription to the offering have been or will be effectively taken prior to the Closing.

(b) Company Information. Investor acknowledges that except as set forth herein, no representations or warranties have been made to Investor, or to Investor’s advisors or representative, by the Company or others with respect to the business or prospects of the Company or its financial condition.
(c) Investment Experience. Investor has sufficient experience in financial and business matters to be capable of utilizing such information to evaluate the merits and risks of Investor’s investment in the Shares, and to make an informed decision relating thereto; or Investor has utilized the services of a purchaser representative and together they have sufficient experience in financial and business matters that they are capable of utilizing such information to evaluate the merits and risks of Investor’s investment in the Shares, and to make an informed decision relating thereto.
| 6 |
(d) Investor Determination of Suitability. Investor has evaluated the risks of an investment in the Shares, including those described in the section of the Offering Circular captioned “Risk Factors”, and has determined that the investment is suitable for Investor. Investor has adequate financial resources for an investment of this character, and at this time Investor could bear a complete loss of Investor’s investment in the Company.
(e) No Registration. Investor understands that the Shares are not being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), on the ground that the issuance thereof is exempt under Regulation A of Section 3(b) of the Securities Act, and that reliance on such exemption is predicated in part on the truth and accuracy of Investor's representations and warranties, and those of the other purchasers of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock in the offering. Investor further understands that the Shares are not being registered under the securities laws of any states on the basis that the issuance thereof is exempt as an offer and sale not involving a registerable public offering in such state, since the Shares are "covered securities" under the National Securities Market Improvement Act of 1996. Investor covenants not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Shares unless such Shares have been registered under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities laws, or exemptions from such registration requirements are available.
(f) Illiquidity and Continued Economic Risk. Investor acknowledges and agrees that there is no ready public market for the Securities and that there is no guarantee that a market for their resale will ever exist. Investor must bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely and the Company has no obligation to list the Securities on any market or take any steps (including registration under the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) with respect to facilitating trading or resale of the Securities. Investor acknowledges that Investor is able to bear the economic risk of losing Investor’s entire investment in the Securities. Investor also understands that an investment in the Company involves significant risks and has taken full cognizance of and understands all of the risk factors relating to the purchase of Securities.
(g) Accredited Investor Status or Investment Limits. Investor represents that either:
(i) Investor is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act; or
(ii) The purchase price, together with any other amounts previously used to purchase Shares in this offering, does not exceed 10% of the greater of Investor’s annual income or net worth (or in the case where Investor is a non-natural person, their revenue or net assets for such Investor's most recently completed fiscal year end).
Investor represents that to the extent it has any questions with respect to its status as an accredited investor, or the application of the investment limits, it has sought professional advice.
(i) Stockholder Information. Within five days after receipt of a request from the Company, Investor hereby agrees to provide such information with respect to its status as a stockholder (or potential stockholder) and to execute and deliver such documents as may reasonably be necessary to comply with any and all laws and regulations to which the Company is or may become subject, including, without limitation, the need to determine the accredited status of the Company’s stockholders. Investor further agrees that in the event it transfers any Securities, it will require the transferee of such Securities to agree to provide such information to the Company as a condition of such transfer.
| 7 |
(j) Valuation. Investor acknowledges that the price of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be sold in this offering was set by the Company on the basis of the Company’s internal valuation and no warranties are made as to value. Investor further acknowledges that future offerings of securities of the Company may be made at lower valuations, with the result that Investor’s investment will bear a lower valuation.
(k) Domicile. Investor maintains Investor’s domicile (and is not a transient or temporary resident) provided with Investors subscription.
(l) Foreign Investors. If Investor is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), Investor hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Shares or any use of this Subscription Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Shares, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale, or transfer of the Shares. Investor’s subscription and payment for and continued beneficial ownership of the Shares will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of Investor’s jurisdiction.
5. Indemnity. The representations, warranties and covenants made by Investor herein shall survive the closing of this Subscription Agreement. Investor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its respective officers, directors and affiliates, and each other person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all reasonable attorneys’ fees, including attorneys’ fees on appeal) and expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any false representation or warranty or breach of failure by Investor to comply with any covenant or agreement made by Investor herein or in any other document furnished by Investor to any of the foregoing in connection with this transaction.
6. Drag Along Right.
(a) A “Sale of the Company” shall mean either: (a) a transaction or series of related transactions in which a person, or a group of related persons, acquires from stockholders of the Company shares representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting power of the Company (a “Stock Sale”) or (b) a transaction that qualifies as a “Liquidation Event” as defined in the Amended and Restate Certificate of Incorporation.
(b) In the event that the Company’s board of directors and the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Series Seed Preferred Stock (as each is defined in the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation), voting as a single class and on an as-converted basis (the “Requisite Parties”) approve a Sale of the Company, the Investor hereby agrees with respect to the Securities and the voting rights of the Investor, if any:
| 8 |
(i) in the event such transaction is to be brought to a vote at a stockholder meeting and to the extent any vote is solicited from Investor, after receiving proper notice of any meeting of stockholders of the Company, to vote on the approval of a Sale of the Company, to be present, in person or by proxy, as a holder of shares of voting securities, at all such meetings and be counted for the purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at such meetings;
(ii) to vote (to the extent any vote is solicited from Investor) (in person, by proxy or by action by written consent, as applicable) the Securities in favor of such Sale of the Company and in opposition to any and all other proposals that could reasonably be expected to delay or impair the ability of the Company to consummate such Sale of the Company;
(iii) to refrain from exercising any dissenters’ rights or rights of appraisal under applicable law at any time with respect to such Sale of the Company;
(iv) to execute and deliver all related documentation and take such other action in support of the Sale of the Company as shall reasonably be requested by the Company or the Requisite Parties;
(v) if the Sale of the Company is structured as a stock sale, to sell the same proportion of the Securities as is being sold by the Requisite Parties, and on the same terms and conditions as the Requisite Parties;
(vi) not to deposit, and to cause the Investor’s affiliates not to deposit the Securities owned by the Investor or affiliate in a voting trust or subject the Securities to any arrangement or agreement with respect to the voting of the Securities, unless specifically requested to do so by the acquirer in connection with the Sale of the Company; and
(vii) if the consideration to be paid in exchange for the Securities pursuant to this Section 6 includes any securities and due receipt thereof by the Investor would require under applicable law (i) the registration or qualification of such securities or of any person as a broker or dealer or agent with respect to such securities or (ii) the provision to the Investor of any information other than such information as a prudent issuer would generally furnish in an offering made solely to “accredited investors” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, the Company may cause to be paid to the Investor in lieu thereof, against surrender of the Securities which would have otherwise been sold by the Investor, an amount in cash equal to the fair value (as determined in good faith by the Company) of the securities which the Investor would otherwise receive as of the date of the issuance of such securities in exchange for the securities.
| 9 |
7. Market Stand-Off Agreement. The Investor shall not sell or otherwise transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, of any Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company held by such Investor (other than those included in the registration) during the one hundred and eighty (180) day period following the effective date of the registration statement for the closing of the Company’s first firm commitment underwritten public offering of the Company’s Common Stock registered under the Securities Act (or such other period as may be requested by the Company or an underwriter to accommodate regulatory restrictions on (i) the publication or other distribution of research reports and (ii) analyst recommendations and opinions, including, but not limited to, the restrictions contained in NASD Rule 2711(f)(4) or NYSE Rule 472(f)(4), or any successor provisions or amendments thereto).
