ANNEX A
The following terms and conditions shall be incorporated by reference into the Agreement dated August 16, 2024, by and between BTIG, LLC (“BTIG”), Xxxxxxx & Company (UK) LTD (“Xxxxxxx”), Arcadia Securities, LLC, (“Arcadia”), JonesTrading Institutional Services LLC (“JonesTrading”) and Beyond Air, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries and affiliates, the “Company”) to which this Annex A is attached. Capitalized terms used below without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement to which this Annex A is attached and any references herein to the “Agreement” shall mean the Agreement to which this Annex A is attached and the terms and conditions in this Annex A. Each of BTIG, Xxxxxxx, Arcadia, and JonesTrading shall be referred to as a “Placement Agent” hereunder, and shall be referred to herein collectively as the “Placement Agents”.
(a) The Company agrees (i) to indemnify and hold harmless each Placement Agent and its affiliates, and its and their respective directors, officers, members, partners, employees, agents and controlling persons and their affiliates (each Placement Agent and each such entity or person being an “Indemnified Person”), from and against any and all losses, claims, demands, damages or liabilities of any kind, joint or several (collectively, “Liabilities”), to which such Indemnified Person may become subject under any applicable law, or otherwise, and related to, arising out of activities performed or services furnished pursuant to the Agreement, or in connection with, the Transactions contemplated by the Agreement of which this Annex A is a part, or such Placement Agent’s role in connection therewith, or the engagement of such Placement Agent pursuant thereto, and (ii) to reimburse each Indemnified Person for all expenses (including counsel fees and expenses) incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with the investigation of, preparation for or defense of any investigation, administrative, judicial or regulatory action or proceeding in any jurisdiction related to or arising out of such activities, services, Transaction or role, whether or not in connection with pending or threatened litigation to which any Indemnified Person is a party, in each case as such expenses are incurred or paid. The Company shall not, however, with respect to any Indemnified Person, be responsible for any such Liabilities or expenses to the extent that they are finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the fraud, gross negligence, or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person in performing the services set forth in the Agreement. The Company also agrees that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to the Company or any of its security holders or creditors related to, arising out of, or in connection with, any Transaction contemplated by the Agreement, the engagement of any Placement Agent pursuant to, or the performance by any Placement Agent of the services contemplated by, the Agreement, except, with respect to any Indemnified Person, to the extent that any Liabilities or expenses incurred by the Company are finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the fraud, gross negligence, or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person in performing the services that are the subject of this Agreement. In no event shall the Company or any Indemnified Person be responsible for any special, indirect or consequential damages incurred by the other; provided, however, that nothing in this sentence shall be deemed to relieve the Company of any obligation it may otherwise have hereunder to indemnify an Indemnified Person for any such damages asserted by an unaffiliated third party.
| Annex A |
| 1 |
(b) In case any Indemnified Person shall receive written notice of the commencement of any proceeding with respect to which such Indemnified Person intends to exercise rights under this Annex A, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Company in writing. The failure of an Indemnified Person to provide such prompt notice shall not reduce such Indemnified Person’s right to indemnification or other rights hereunder to the extent that such failure does not materially prejudice the ability to defend such proceeding. The Company shall have the right to assume the defense of any such action, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person and shall not settle, compromise, consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any claim, action or proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, whether or not any Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party thereto, unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liabilities arising out of such claim, action or proceeding, or unless the Company receives the Indemnified Person’s prior written consent in each instance. Any Indemnified Person shall be entitled to retain separate counsel of its choice and participate in the defense of any action in connection with any of the matters to which this Annex A relates, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless: (i) the Company has failed promptly to assume the defense and employ counsel or has elected not to assume the defense or (ii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include such Indemnified Person and the Company, and such Indemnified Person shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or in addition to those available to the Company; provided that the Company shall not in such event be responsible under this Annex A for the fees and expenses of more than one firm of separate counsel (in addition to local counsel) for such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action in the same jurisdiction.
Prior to entering into any agreement or arrangement with respect to, or effecting, any proposed sale, exchange, dividend or other distribution or liquidation of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of transactions or any significant recapitalization or reclassification of its outstanding securities that does not directly or indirectly provide for the assumption of the obligations of the Company set forth in this Annex A, the Company shall notify the Placement Agents in writing thereof (if not previously so notified) and, if requested by any of the Placement Agents, shall arrange in connection therewith alternative means of providing for the obligations of the Company set forth in this Annex A, including the assumption of such obligations by another party, insurance, surety bonds or the creation of an escrow, in each case in an amount and upon terms and conditions satisfactory to the Placement Agents.
(c) If the foregoing indemnification of an Indemnified Person provided for in this Annex A is for any reason unavailable or insufficient to hold an Indemnified Person harmless in respect of any Liabilities (and related expenses) referred to herein, then, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person hereunder, the Company shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such Liabilities (and related expenses), (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits to the Company, on the one hand, and the Placement Agents, on the other hand, of the Transaction (whether or not the Transaction is consummated), or (ii) if (but only if) the allocation provided for in clause (i) is for any reason held unenforceable, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Placement Agents on the other hand, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The Company agrees that for the purposes of this paragraph the relative benefits to the Company and the Placement Agents of the Transaction (whether or not the Transaction is consummated) shall be deemed to be, in the case of a Transaction, in the same proportion as (x) the total value paid or contemplated to be paid or received or contemplated to be received by the Company or its security holders as a result of or in connection with the Transaction (whether or not the Transaction is consummated), bears to (y) the fees paid or to be paid to the Placement Agents under the Agreement and in the case of any other transaction, in the same proportion that the total gross proceeds of such transaction to the Company from such transaction bears to the fees paid or to be paid to the Placement Agents under the Agreement or any agreements governing such transaction; provided, however, that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall any Placement Agent (or any of its affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, members, partners, employees, agents and controlling persons and their affiliates) be required to contribute an aggregate amount in excess of the aggregate fees actually paid to such Placement Agent under the Agreement or such other agreements.
| Annex A |
| 2 |
If any Placement Agent or any other Indemnified Person is requested or required to appear as a witness in any action brought by or on behalf of or against the Company or an investor in the Transaction in which such party is not named as a defendant, the Company will reimburse such Placement Agent for all expenses incurred in connection with such party’s appearing and preparing to appear as such a witness, including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of its legal counsel.
The provisions of this Annex A shall continue to apply and shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any modification or termination of the engagement or the Agreement or the completion of the Placement Agents’ services thereunder.
