Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined have the meanings ascribed to such terms in Appendix A attached hereto.
Whereas, Sellers collectively own all of the membership interests of S5D (the “Membership Interests”); and
Whereas, Buyer wishes to purchase all of the Membership Interests and Sellers wish to sell such Membership Interests;
Now, therefore, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, together with other good and sufficient consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is herewith acknowledged, the Parties, intending to be mutually bound, agree as follows:
1. | Sale. Each Seller agrees to sell, assign, transfer and deliver to Buyer, and Buyer agrees to purchase from such Seller on the Closing Date, all of the right title and interests of such Seller’s Membership Interest as set forth on Schedule 1 attached hereto, free and clear of all Encumbrances. |
2. | Purchase Price. The purchase price (“Purchase Price”) shall be as follows: |
a. | $4,000,000 cash (the “Cash Payment”) paid to Sellers in accordance with Schedule 1 attached hereto in immediately available funds on the Closing Date. |
b. | $2,000,000 cash placed in escrow by Buyer pursuant to the Escrow Agreement (the “Escrowed Cash”). The Escrowed Cash to be released as follows: |
i. | $1,000,000 shall be released to Sellers when S5D has generated $6,000,000 in Aggregate Recognized Revenue after the Closing Date, subject to such revenue being generated prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date. |
ii. | $1,000,000 shall be released to Sellers when S5D has generated $8,000,000 in Aggregate Recognized Revenue after the Closing Date, subject to such revenue being generated prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date. |
iii. | On the third anniversary of the Closing Date, any Escrowed Cash remaining in escrow shall be released to Buyer. |
iv. | In the event of a Liquidation Event prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date, all Escrowed Cash then in escrow shall immediately be released to Sellers. |
v. | “Aggregate Recognized Revenue” shall mean: |
1. | all revenue of S5D for so long as S5D operates as a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Buyer. |
2. | any revenue attributable to the product lines and technologies of S5D as of the Closing Date if the business of S5D is not operated as a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Buyer. |
3. | If S5D gains the business but uses resources from other Buyer companies to produce the deliverables, all of the revenue associated with the business shall be counted as Aggregate Recognized Revenue; provided, that, the costs associated with utilizing such resources shall be debited from the internal profit and loss statement of S5D for the applicable period. |

c. | 277,201 shares of Common stock of Buyer shall be given to the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement by Buyers on the Effective Date (the “Closing Buyer Shares”), such Closing Buyer Shares shall be released to Sellers upon the release of the Seller Closing Deliveries in accordance with Section 3 hereof and be subject to a 12-month lockup from the Closing Date pursuant to Lockup Agreements executed by each Seller (the “Lockup Agreements”). |
d. | Common stock of Buyer (“Buyer Shares”) worth $3,000,000 worth shall be issued to Sellers if S5D has generated $4,000,000 in Aggregate Recognized Revenue on or before the first anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, that, if this has not occurred by the first anniversary of the Closing Date, then on that date, provided that S5D has generated at least $3,000,000 in Aggregate Recognized Revenue by such date, then Buyer Shares equal to the percentage that the Aggregate Recognized Revenue as of such date is of $4,000,000 shall be issued to Sellers on that date. For example, should S5D have generated $3,600,000 in Aggregate Recognized Revenue by the first anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer would issue $2,700,000 (i.e., 90%) worth of Buyer Shares to Sellers. The number of Buyer Shares shall be calculated based upon the weighted average closing price of the Buyer Shares, as quoted on Nasdaq, for the thirty consecutive trading days prior to the anniversary date, such weighting to be based on the trading volume, as reported on Nasdaq, for each such trading day; provided that notwithstanding such calculation, such price shall not be less than the Buyer’s July 1, 2021 Initial Public Offering price of $7.00 per share and all per share amounts shall be adjusted to reflect stock splits and similar events (the “VWAP Calculation”). |
e. | $4,000,000 worth of Buyer Shares shall be issued to Sellers if S5D has generated $10,000,000 in Aggregate Recognized Revenue on or before the second anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, that, if this has not occurred by the second anniversary of the Closing Date, then on that date, provided that S5D has generated at least $7,500,000 in Aggregate Recognized Revenue as of such date, then Buyer Shares equal to the percentage that the Aggregate Recognized Revenue is of $10,000,000 shall be issued to Sellers on that date. For example, should S5D have generated $8,500,000 in Aggregate Recognized Revenue by the second anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer would issue $3,400,000 (i.e., 85%) worth of Buyer Shares to Sellers. |
f. | $5,000,000 worth of Buyer Shares shall be issued to Sellers if S5D has generated $15,000,000 in Aggregate Recognized Revenue on or before the third anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, that, if this has not occurred by the third anniversary of the Closing Date, then on that date, provided that S5D has generated at least $11,250,000 in Aggregate Recognized Revenue as of such date, then Buyer Shares equal to the percentage that the Aggregate Recognized Revenue is of $15,000,000 shall be issued to Sellers on that date. For example, should S5D have generated $12,000,000 in Aggregate Recognized Revenue by the third anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer would issue $4,000,000 (i.e., 80%) worth of Buyer Shares to Sellers. |
g. | $5,000,000 worth of Buyer Shares shall be issued to Sellers if the Buyer generates $20,000,000 in Aggregate Recognized Revenue on or before the third anniversary of the Closing Date. |
h. | On the third anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer Shares in the amounts contemplated pursuant to Sections 2(d) and (e) shall be issued to Sellers if the Sellers have received less than 100% of the allotment of shares on the first or second anniversaries of the Closing Date pursuant to Sections 2(d) and (e), but achieve the Aggregate Recognized revenue targets for those anniversary dates on or before the third anniversary of the Closing Date.

j. | If there is a Liquidation Event on or before the third anniversary of the Closing Date, (i) the $5,000,000 worth of Buyer Shares referenced in Section 2(g) shall become fully accelerated and due and the S5D performance items and associated stock grants (Sections 2(d), (e), (f), and (h)) shall survive and become a binding obligation of the acquirer of Buyer and (ii) any cash remaining in escrow shall be released to Sellers. |
k. | In the event that the PPP Loan is forgiven in whole or in part, cash in an amount equal to such forgiven amount shall be distributed to Sellers, it being understood and agreed that such distribution shall not be a distribution of Escrowed Cash. |
