Exhibit 10.4
PREFERRED STOCK EXCHANGE AGREEMENT
This PREFERRED STOCK EXCHANGE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of November 15, 2024, by and between Lazydays Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the holder listed on the signature page hereto (the “Holder”).
WHEREAS, the Holder owns shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), which may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”);
WHEREAS, the Preferred Stock accrues interest pursuant to the Dividend Rate, as defined under the Certificate of Designations of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, Par Value $0.0001 (the “CoD”);
WHEREAS, the number of shares of Preferred Stock held by Xxxxxx (the “Preferred Shares”) is to be exchanged for the number of Common Stock of the Company as set forth in Section 1.2;
WHEREAS, in order to improve the capital structure of the Company, the Company and the Holder desire to enter into this Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company and the Holder, for no additional consideration, shall exchange in one or more exchanges the Preferred Stock for the number of shares of Common Stock (“Exchange Shares”), as calculated below (each an “Exchange” and together the “Exchanges”);
WHEREAS, following each Exchange, the Preferred Stock shall be automatically cancelled and terminated and the Holder shall have no further rights pursuant to the applicable Preferred Stock; and
WHEREAS, the Exchange is being made in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein below, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1. The Exchange. At each Closing (as defined below), the Company and the Holder shall, pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, exchange the Preferred Stock into Common Stock, as follows:
1.1 Closing. An Exchange shall occur pursuant to two closings (each a “Closing”). The Holder understands that this Agreement is not binding on the Company until the Company accepts it, which acceptance is in the Company’s sole discretion, by executing this Agreement where indicated. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the first Closing (the “First Closing Date”) shall occur immediately upon the execution of this Agreement and the second Closing (the “Second Closing Date”) shall occur automatically on the first business day after the 20th day after an information statement (the “Information Statement”) of the type contemplated by Rule 14c-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is mailed to the stockholders of the Company. The Information Statement shall refer to the amendment of the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (“Existing Certificate of Incorporation”) providing for an increase of the amount of authorized and unissued Common Stock of the Company sufficient to allow for the exchange of the entire amount of Preferred Stock into Common Stock pursuant to the terms herein (such amendment, the “Amendment”).
1.2 Exchange Shares. On the First Closing Date, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Holder shall receive from the Company [ ] shares of Common Stock (the “First Closing Common Shares”) in exchange for [ ] shares of Preferred Stock (the “First Closing Preferred Shares”). On the Second Closing Date, the Holder shall automatically, through no further action by Xxxxxx, by virtue of this Agreement, exchange its remaining [ ] shares of Preferred Stock (the “Second Closing Preferred Shares”) for [ ] shares of Common Stock (the “Second Closing Common Shares”), as further detailed in Schedule I. For the avoidance of doubt, any dividends of the Preferred Stock shall cease accruing after the First Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing or as set forth in Schedule I, in the event that the issuance of the First Closing Common Shares will result in the issuance of more shares of Common Stock than is authorized by the Existing Certificate of Incorporation as of the First Closing Date (the “Exchange Cap”), (a) the amount of the First Closing Common Shares and the corresponding amount of First Closing Preferred Shares shall automatically be adjusted such that the amount of Common Stock received by the Holder meets the Exchange Cap and (b) the amount of the Second Closing Preferred Shares and the corresponding amount of the Second Closing Common Shares shall automatically be adjusted to reflect such changes.
1.3 No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon each Exchange. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled pursuant to such Exchange, the Company shall round down to the nearest whole share.
1.4 Consideration. At each Closing, the Exchange Shares shall be issued to the Holder in exchange for the applicable Preferred Stock without the payment of any other consideration by the Holder that would not be consistent with the application of Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act to the issuance of the Exchange Shares. The Holder hereby agrees that, upon and subject to each Closing, all of the Company’s obligations under the terms and conditions of the Preferred Stock that has been exchanged shall be automatically terminated and cancelled in full without any further action required, and that this Section 1.4 shall constitute an instrument of termination and cancellation of such Preferred Stock.
1.5 Delivery. In the Exchange, the Company shall, at each Closing, deliver the Exchange Shares to the Holder (in electronic or certificated form as determined by the Holder). The Holder shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Company (or its designee), within five (5) Trading Days after the First Closing Date, the original Preferred Stock certificate, accompanied by a stock power in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, duly executed in favor of the Company. To the extent such Preferred Stock certificate includes Preferred Stock in excess of the Preferred Stock being exchanged on the First Closing Date, the Company shall issue or cause its transfer agent to issue, as applicable, a new Preferred Stock certificate reflecting the amount of Preferred Stock not exchanged, if any (a “New Preferred Stock Certificate”). If a New Preferred Stock Certificate is issued, the Holder shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Company (or its designee), within five (5) Trading Days after the Second Closing Date, the New Preferred Stock certificate, accompanied by a stock power in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, duly executed in favor of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, as of each Closing all of the Holder’s rights under the terms and conditions of the Preferred Stock that were exchanged shall be extinguished. For purposes of this Agreement, “Trading Day” shall mean a day on which the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC is open for trading.
1.6 Other Documents. The Company and the Holder shall execute and/or deliver such other documents and agreements as are reasonably necessary to effectuate the Exchange pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
2. Representations and Warranties.

(e) The Company has not, nor has any person acting on its behalf, directly or indirectly made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) under circumstances that would cause the Exchange and the issuance of the Exchange Shares pursuant to this Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act which would (i) require the registration under the Securities Act of the issuance of the Exchange Shares or (ii) be integrated with the issuance of Exchange Shares for purposes of the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC such that it would require stockholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless stockholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.
(f) For the purposes of Rule 144 of the Securities Act, the Company acknowledges that the holding period of the Exchange Shares may be tacked onto the holding period of the Preferred Shares pursuant to applicable rules, regulations and interpretations, and the Company agrees not to take a position contrary to this Section 2.2(f).
(g) The Company hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof and covenants and agrees from and after the date hereof that none of the terms offered to any person with respect to any consent, release, amendment, settlement or waiver relating to the terms, conditions and transactions contemplated hereby (each a “Settlement Document”), is or will be more favorable to such person than those of the Holder and this Agreement. If, and whenever on or after the date hereof, the Company enters into a Settlement Document, then (i) the Company shall provide notice thereof to the Holder immediately following the occurrence thereof and (ii) the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be, without any further action by the Holder or the Company, automatically amended and modified in an economically and legally equivalent manner such that the Holder shall receive the benefit of the more favorable terms and/or conditions (as the case may be), provided that upon written notice to the Company at any time the Holder may elect not to accept the benefit of any such amended or modified term or condition, in which event the term or condition contained in this Agreement shall apply to the Holder as it was in effect immediately prior to such amendment or modification as if such amendment or modification never occurred with respect to the Holder. The provisions of this Section 2.2(g) shall apply similarly and equally to each Settlement Document.
(h) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Exchange Shares) will not (i) violate any provision of the Existing Certificate of Incorporation, as amended by the Amendment, or the Company’s bylaws as currently in effect, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any contract required to be disclosed by the Company under paragraph 601(b)(10) of Item 601 of Regulation S-K in applicable Securities Act and Exchange Act forms, or (iii) result in a violation of any federal, state, local or foreign statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable to the Company or by which any property or asset of the Company is bound or affected
