AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT
Exhibit 10.1
AMENDED AND RESTATED
This Amended and Restated Agreement (this “Agreement”) is dated as of September 18, 2017 and shall be effective as set forth below, by and among Xxxxxxx Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) and the entities and natural persons set forth in the signature pages hereto (collectively, “Viex”) (each of the Company and Viex, a “Party” to this Agreement, and collectively, the “Parties”).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Company and Viex are parties to the Agreement, dated April 10, 2017 (the “Prior Agreement”), and each of the Parties desires to amend and restate the Prior Agreement by entering into this Agreement pursuant to the terms set forth herein;
WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, Viex is deemed to beneficially own shares of Common Stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) totaling, in the aggregate, 1,477,058 shares, or approximately 4.0% of the Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date hereof, and has sold short put options referencing the obligation to purchase an additional 986,700 shares of Common Stock; and
WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Company and Viex have determined to come to an agreement on matters relating to, among other things, the Company’s 2018 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2018 Annual Meeting”), as provided in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:
Section 1. | Board Matters, Nomination and Election of Directors and Related Agreements. |
(a) Size of the Board. The Company agrees to keep the authorized number of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) set at eight (8) members through the conclusion of the 2018 Annual Meeting.
(b) Strategic Alliance and Review Committee. For the duration of the Standstill Period: (a) the Company shall continue to maintain the Strategic Alliance and Review Committee, and (b) such committee shall be comprised of four (4) members, which shall include Xxxx Xxxxx.
Section 2. | Covenants. |
(a) Director Compensation. The Company agrees that so long as Viex continues to beneficially own a “net long position” (as such term is defined in Rule 14e-4 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Exchange Act”)) of at least 3.0% of the Company’s Common Stock, during the Standstill Period, the Company, after consultation between the Compensation Committee of the Board and Viex, other stockholders of the Company as determined by the Company and its compensation consultants, will continue to take appropriate action to adjust the compensation arrangements for directors to include a combination of non-qualified stock options and restricted stock units.
Section 3. | Cash Consideration; Investment. |
(a) Cash Consideration. In the event that the Company consummates a Qualified Financing (as defined below), the Company agrees to make a cash payment to Viex in an amount equal to $600,000 (the “Cash Consideration”) simultaneously with the closing of the Qualified Financing; provided, however, that if Viex or one of its Affiliates are eligible to participate in such Qualified Financing (such eligibility to be determined by Viex’s outside legal counsel), then Viex or one of its Affiliates, as applicable, agrees to re-invest the Cash Consideration into the Qualified Financing (the “Reinvestment”). For purposes of this Agreement, a Qualified Financing means a convertible debt financing resulting in net proceeds to the Company of at least $20,000,000 that occurs no later than the expiration of the Standstill Period. Subject to applicable law, in connection with the participation of Viex or one of its Affiliates in such Qualified Financing, the Company shall either retain and credit the Cash Consideration or advance the Cash Consideration on behalf of Viex or one of its Affiliates, as applicable, as required payment of the purchase price in such Qualified Financing.
(b) Investment Participation. In connection with its participation in any Qualified Financing, Viex or one of its Affiliates, as applicable, shall agree to the investment terms applicable to each of the other investors participating in such Qualified Financing.
Section 4. | Additional Agreements. |
(a) Viex agrees that it will cause its controlled Affiliates and Associates to comply with the terms of this Agreement and shall be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by any such controlled Affiliate or Associate. As used in this Agreement, the terms “Affiliate” and “Associate” shall have the respective meanings set forth in Rule 12b-2 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act and shall include all persons or entities that at any time during the term of this Agreement become Affiliates or Associates of any person or entity referred to in this Agreement.
(b) Viex hereby agrees that it will not, and that it will not permit any of its controlled Affiliates or Associates to, (1) nominate or recommend for nomination any person for election at the 2018 Annual Meeting, directly or indirectly, (2) submit any proposal for consideration at, or bring any other business before, the 2018 Annual Meeting, directly or indirectly, or (3) initiate, encourage or participate in any “withhold” or similar campaign with respect to the 2018 Annual Meeting, directly or indirectly. Viex shall not publicly or privately encourage or support any other stockholder to take any of the actions described in this Section 4(b).
2
(c) Viex agrees that it will appear in person or by proxy at the 2018 Annual Meeting and vote all shares of Common Stock of the Company beneficially owned by Viex at the meeting (u) in favor of the election of the nominees supported by the Board, (v) in favor of the ratification of the appointment of BDO USA, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2018, (w) in accordance with the Board’s recommendation with respect to the Company’s “say-on-pay” proposal, and (x) in favor of such other proposals as submitted by and supported by the Board; provided, however, that to the extent that the recommendation of both Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (“ISS”) and Glass Lewis & Co., LLC (“Glass Lewis”) differs from the Board's recommendation with respect to any matter other than nominees for election as directors to the Board, Viex shall have the right to vote in accordance with the recommendation of ISS and Glass Lewis with respect to such matters.
Section 5. | Standstill Provisions. |
(a) Viex agrees that from the date of this Agreement until the date that is ten (10) business days prior to the deadline for the submission of stockholder proposals for the 2018 Annual Meeting pursuant to the Bylaws (the “Standstill Period”), neither it nor any of its Affiliates or Associates under its control will, and it will cause each of its Affiliates and Associates under its control not to, directly or indirectly, in any manner:
(i) purchase or cause to be purchased or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire beneficial ownership of any Common Stock or other securities issued by the Company, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, such that Viex, together with its Affiliates and Associates (as defined in Section 4(a)) would, in the aggregate, beneficially own a number of shares in excess of 10% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock;
(ii) engage in any solicitation of proxies or consents or become a “participant” in a “solicitation” (as such terms are defined in Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act) of proxies or consents (including, without limitation, any solicitation of consents that seeks to call a special meeting of stockholders), in each case, with respect to securities of the Company;
(iii) form, join or in any way participate in any “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) with respect to the Common Stock (other than a “group” that includes all or some of the persons identified on Exhibit A, but does not include any other entities or persons not identified on Exhibit A as of the date hereof); provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit the ability of an Affiliate of Viex to join the “group” following the execution of this Agreement, so long as any such Affiliate agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement;
3
(iv) deposit any Common Stock in any voting trust or subject any Common Stock to any arrangement or agreement with respect to the voting of any Common Stock, other than any such voting trust, arrangement or agreement solely among the members of Viex and otherwise in accordance with this Agreement;
(v) seek, or encourage any person, to submit nominations in furtherance of a “contested solicitation” for the election or removal of directors with respect to the Company or seek, encourage or take any other action with respect to the election or removal of any directors;
(vi) (A) make any proposal for consideration by stockholders at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company, (B) make any offer or proposal (with or without conditions) with respect to any merger, acquisition, amalgamation, recapitalization, restructuring, disposition, distribution, spin-off, asset sale, joint venture or other business combination involving the Company (an “Extraordinary Transaction”), or encourage, initiate or support any other third party with respect to any of the foregoing, (C) make any public communication in opposition to any Extraordinary Transaction approved by the Board or (D) call or seek to call a special meeting of stockholders;
(vii) seek, alone or in concert with others, representation on the Board, except as specifically permitted in this Agreement;
(viii) seek to advise, encourage, support or influence any person with respect to the voting or disposition of any securities of the Company at any annual or special meeting of stockholders, except in accordance with Section 4;
(ix) make any request or submit any proposal to amend the terms of this Agreement other than through non-public communications with the Company that would not be reasonably determined to trigger public disclosure obligations for any Party; or
(x) disclose any intention, plan or arrangement inconsistent with any provision of this Section 5.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Section 4 shall continue to apply.

Section 14. | Counterparts. |

Section 15. | Mutual Non-Disparagement. |
Subject to applicable law, each of the Parties covenants and agrees that, through the conclusion of the 2018 Annual Meeting, or if earlier, until such time as the other Party or any of its agents, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, assigns, officers, key employees or directors shall have breached this Section 15, neither it nor any of its respective agents, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, assigns, officers, key employees or directors, shall in any way publicly criticize, disparage, call into disrepute, or otherwise defame or slander the other Parties or such other Parties’ subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, assigns, officers (including any current officer of a Party or a Parties’ subsidiaries who no longer serves in such capacity following the execution of this Agreement), directors (including any current director of a Party or a Parties’ subsidiaries who no longer serves in such capacity following the execution of this Agreement), employees, stockholders, agents, attorneys or representatives, or any of their businesses, products or services, in any manner that would reasonably be expected to damage the business or reputation of such other Parties, their businesses, products or services or their subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, assigns, officers (or former officers), directors (or former directors), employees, stockholders, agents, attorneys or representatives.
