Exhibit 10.2
This Loan Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made on January 14, 2024 (the “Effective Date”) by and between, SciSparc Ltd., an Israeli limited company (the “Lender”) and AutoMax Motors Ltd., an Israeli limited company (the “Borrower”).
WHEREAS, | the Borrower and the Lender intend to enter into a merger agreement, upon consummation of which the Borrower will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Lender (the “Merger Agreement” and “Transaction”, respectively); |
WHEREAS, | upon the closing of the Transaction, the Lender shall deliver to the Borrower an amount of not less than $4,250,000 (the “Consideration”); and |
WHEREAS, | pending the finalization of the Transaction, the Borrower is interested to obtain a bridge loan from the Lender; and |
WHEREAS, | the Lender is willing to extend a bridge loan to the Borrower, under the terms and conditions set forth herein. |
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
1. | Loan |
The Lender shall loan to the Borrower a U.S dollar loan in an amount of one million four hundred thousand US dollars (US $1,400,000) (the “Principal Amount”). The Lender, in its discretion, shall provide the Principal Amount on the Effective Date, in US dollars or New Israeli Shekels, based on the USD/NIS exchange rate published by the Bank of Israel most recently prior to the date hereof, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account, details of which have been provided by the Borrower in writing. Any part of the Principal Amount shall bear interest from the date it was transferred to the Borrower, at a rate of 7% per annum (or 9% per annum if the Transaction is eventually not consummated prior to the Repayment Date), compounded annually and calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days and the actual number of days elapsed (the “Interest”, and together with the Principal Amount – the “Loan Amount”). The Borrower has a right, at its sole discretion, to prepay the Loan Amount at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. Any repayment of the Loan Amount shall be made in U.S. dollars. Throughout the term of this Agreement, the loan hereunder shall be subordinated to Series B debentures of the Company traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange Ltd., senior to any other future debt of the Company incurred not in the ordinary course of business, and pari-passu with any other current or future debt of the Company.
2. | Repayment |
Unless otherwise agreed between the parties in writing, the Loan Amount is due and payable upon the earlier of: (i) the date on which the Transaction is closed – in which event the Loan Amount accrued on such date shall be deemed a part of, and set-off against, the Consideration, and shall be deemed repaid in full by the Lender; (ii) in the event the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with the provisions thereof – on the three (3) month anniversary date of such termination date; or (iii) July 15, 2024 (each, the “Repayment Date”).
3. | Event Of Default and Immediate Repayment |
Each of the events set forth below shall be considered an event of default (each, an “Event of Default” and collectively, “Events of Default”):
3.1. The appointment of a receiver or trustee to take possession of all or substantially all of the property or assets of Borrower provided a petition for the cancellation or annulment of such appointment is not filed within 30 days of its initiation.
3.2. The commencement of bankruptcy, liquidation or dissolution proceedings of the Borrower, provided a petition for the cancellation or annulment of such proceedings is not filed within 30 days of its initiation.
3.3. A petition of voluntary liquidation is filed by the Borrower.
3.4. The Borrower fails to pay any sum under this Agreement as the same falls due and such breach is not cured within 14 days of receiving a written notice thereof from Lender.
3.5. Borrower’s breach of any material obligation, representation, or warranty contained in this Agreement and such breach is not cured within 14 days of receiving a written notice thereof from Lender.
3.6. Borrower defaults in the payment of principal or interest on any debentures issued by Borrower and listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange Ltd.
Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may, at its sole discretion, declare the Loan Amount immediately due and payable without presentment, notice or demand of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived.
In addition to the right of immediate repayment, as provided herein, Lender may exercise any rights and remedies available under applicable law, including, but not limited to, pursuing legal action to recover the outstanding amounts.
Lender shall provide Borrower with written notice of any Event of Default promptly upon becoming aware of such event. However, the failure to provide notice shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s rights.
