GLOBAL HEALTHCARE REIT, INC. NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
This Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement (the “Agreement”) is attached as Exhibit A to a Notice of Grant of Stock Option (the “Grant Notice”), pursuant to which Optionee has been informed of the basic terms of the option evidenced thereby. Certain capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the respective meanings specified in the Grant Notice to which this Agreement relates.
THIS NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into between GLOBAL HEALTHCARE REIT, INC., a Utah corporation (“Global” or the “Company”), and XXX XXXXX (“Optionee”), as of April 1, 2018 (the “Grant Date”). In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants made herein, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. | Grant of Option. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Global grants to Optionee an option (the “Option”) to purchase 600,000 shares (the “Shares”) of Global’s common stock, $.05 par value (the “Common Stock”), at a price equal to U.S $0.36 per share (the “Option Price”). The Option Price has been determined by the Board of Directors. | |
The Option is not intended to qualify as an incentive stock option described in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). All provisions of this Agreement are to be construed in conformity with this intention. | ||
2. | Term. The Option shall be valid for a term commencing on the Grant Date and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date, as defined below (“Expiration Date”). In the event there is a cessation of Service by Optionee with Global for any reason, then all unvested Options shall immediately become null and void and cannot be exercised by Optionee. | |
3. | Vesting. The Option may only be exercised to the extent vested. Options exercisable to purchase 150,000 shares of common stock shall vest immediately upon the Grant Date. Options exercisable to purchase an additional 150,000 shares of common stock shall vest 12 months following the Grant Date (a “Vesting Date”). Options exercisable to purchase an additional 150,000 shares of common stock shall vest 18 months following the Grant Date. Options exercisable to purchase an additional 150,000 shares of common stock shall vest 24 months following the Grant Date. Vesting is contingent upon Optionee continuing to provide Services to the Company on each Vesting Date. All unvested Options shall immediately vest in the event of a Change in Control of the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, a Change in Control shall mean any transaction of the Company involving (i) the merger or consolidation of the Company into or with another entity where the Company’s shareholders receive less than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the new or continuing entity, (ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, (iii) any person not already a stockholder of the Company becoming a beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of the securities of the Company representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities, (iv) a change in the majority of the Board of Directors of the Company, or (v) the Company terminating its business or liquidating its assets. |
4. | Procedure for Exercise. Exercise of the Option, or a portion thereof, shall be effected by the giving of written notice to Global and payment of the aggregate Option Price for the number of Shares to be acquired pursuant to such exercise and completing the Purchase Form attached to this Option. In the event the issuance of the Shares upon exercise of this Option has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ( the “Securities Act”), the Optionee shall concurrently execute and deliver the Subscription Agreement and Representations and Warranties in the form attached hereto as Exhibits A and B, respectively. | |
5. | Manner of Payment. | |
a. The exercise price of each Option shall be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable statutes and regulations, either (i) in cash at the time the Option is exercised, (ii) by delivery to the Company of other Common Stock of the Company valued at its then established fair market value (as defined below), (iii) by delivery to the Company of either options or warrants of the Company including, without limitation, this Option, valued at the difference between their exercise price and the then established fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock, (iv) according to a deferred payment or other arrangement (which may include, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of other Common Stock of the Company) with the holder hereof, or (v) any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Board of Directors, in their discretion. For the purposes of this Section 5, the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock shall be defined as (i) the closing sale price for the Common Stock on the primary exchange upon which the shares are listed and traded on the date prior to the date the Option is exercised, or (ii) if the shares are not traded on any national exchange, the closing sale price for the Common Stock on the NASDAQ National Market on the date prior to the date the Option is exercised, or (iii) if the shares are neither traded on a national exchange nor listed on the NASDAQ National Market, then the average of the bid and ask prices for the Common Stock in the Over-The-Counter Market as quoted on the NASDAQ Capital Market, on the date prior to the date the Option is exercised, or (iv) if the shares of Common Stock are neither traded on a national exchange or the NASDAQ National Market nor quoted on the NASDAQ Capital Market, the average of the bid and ask prices for the Common Stock as quoted by any recognized securities quotation service such as the OTC Markets or the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board on the date prior to the date the Option is exercised, or (v) if the shares of Common Stock are not quoted on any recognized securities quotation service such as the OTC Markets, Inc., or the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board on the date prior to the date the Option is exercised, then the fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock shall be the price paid for the Company’s Common Stock in the most recent transaction involving the Company and a nonaffiliated purchaser in an arm’s length transaction (the “Fair Market Value”). In the case of any deferred payment arrangement, any interest shall be payable at least annually and shall be charged at the minimum rate of interest necessary to avoid the treatment as interest, under any applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, of any amounts other than amounts stated to be interest under the deferred payment arrangement. |
(b) By way of example, in lieu of exercising this Option by payment with cash, certified check or wired funds, the Holder may elect to receive the number of Shares, as determined below, equal to the value of this Option (or the portion thereof being exercised) by surrender of this Option at the corporate office of the Company together with the duly executed form of subscription agreement and notice of such an election, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula: |
X | = | Y(A-B) | |
A |
Where: | X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder | |
Y = the gross number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased | ||
A = the Fair Market Value of one (1) share of the Company’s Common Stock on the day prior to exercise hereunder | ||
B = Exercise Price |
6. | Options Not Transferable and Subject to Certain Restrictions. The Option may not be sold, pledged, assigned or transferred in any manner other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined in Section 414(p) of the Code. During Optionee’s lifetime, the Option may be exercised only by the Optionee or by a legally authorized representative. In the event of Optionee’s death, the Option may be exercised for a period of 90 days following the date of death by the distributee to whom Optionee’s rights under the Option shall pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. | |
7. | Acceptance of Agreement. Optionee hereby accepts and agrees to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement. | |
8. | No Right to Employment. Nothing herein contained shall confer upon Optionee any right to continuation of employment by Global or any Affiliate, or interfere with the right of Global or any Affiliate to terminate at any time the employment of Optionee. Nothing contained herein shall confer any rights upon Optionee as a stockholder of Global, unless and until Optionee actually exercises this Option and receives Shares. | |
9. | Compliance with Securities Laws. The Option shall not be exercisable and Shares shall not be issued pursuant to exercise of the Option unless the exercise of the Option and the issuance and delivery of Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant provisions of law. | |
10. | Adjustments. With respect to any unexercised portion of the Option, Global may make any adjustments necessary to prevent accretion, or to protect against dilution, in the number and kind of shares covered by the Option and in the applicable exercise price thereof in the event of a change in the corporate structure or shares of Global; provided, however, that no adjustment shall be made for the issuance of preferred stock of Global or the conversion of convertible preferred stock of Global. For purposes of this Section 10, a change in the corporate structure or shares of Global includes, without limitation, any change resulting from a recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, consolidation, rights offering, spin-off, reorganization or liquidation, and any transaction in which shares of Common Stock are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares of stock or other securities of Global or another entity. |
11. | No Other Rights. Optionee hereby acknowledges and agrees that, except as set forth herein, no other representations or promises, either oral or written, have been made by Global, any Affiliate or anyone acting on their behalf with respect to Optionee’s right to acquire any shares of Common Stock, stock options or awards under the Agreement, and Optionee hereby releases, acquits and forever discharges Global, the Affiliates and anyone acting on their behalf of and from all claims, demands or causes of action whatsoever relating to any such representations or promises and waives forever any claim, demand or action against Global, any Affiliate or anyone acting on their behalf with respect thereto. | |
12. | Severability. Any provision of this Agreement (or portion thereof) that is deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction and subject to this Section 14, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without affecting in any way the remaining provisions thereof in such jurisdiction or rendering that or any other provisions of this Agreement invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction. | |
13. | Not used. | |
14. | Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties concerning the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, oral or written, between Global and Optionee relating to Optionee’s entitlement to stock options, Common Stock or similar benefits. | |
15. | Amendment. This Agreement may be amended and/or terminated at any time by mutual written agreement of Global and Optionee. | |
16. | No Third Party Beneficiary. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer on any person other than Optionee and Optionee’s respective successors and assigns expressly permitted herein, any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement. | |
17. | Governing Law. The construction and operation of this Agreement are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware. |
