Ladies and Gentlemen:
Each of the undersigned hereby confirms its agreement with you as follows:
1. | This Purchase Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of December 4, 2014, by and among Cyan, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and each party identified on the signature pages hereof (each, an “Undersigned”), for itself and on behalf of the beneficial owners listed on Schedule I hereto (each, an “Account” and, collectively, the “Accounts”), for whom the Undersigned holds contractual and investment authority (each Account, as well as each Undersigned if it is purchasing Notes and Warrants (as defined below) hereunder, including its successors and assigns, a “Purchaser” and collectively, the “Purchasers”). |
2. | The Company and each Purchaser is executing and delivering this Agreement in reliance upon, and the Notes and Warrants (as defined below) will be offered and sold to each Purchaser pursuant to, the exemption from securities registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Rule 506 of Regulation D (“Regulation D”) as promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act. Each Purchaser is a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act or an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D. |
3. | Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreements (as defined below), the Company has authorized the issuance and sale of an aggregate of up to $50,000,000 (or up to $60,000,000 if the Company elects to issue additional Notes (as defined below) within 13 days of the initial Closing Date), of securities consisting of (i) $1,000 in principal amount of 8.00% Convertible Senior Secured Notes of the Company (each, a “Note”) and (ii) a warrant (each, a “Warrant”) per $1,000 of principal amount of notes, each warrant initially entitling the holder thereof to purchase 225 share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at an initial exercise price equal to $3.62 per share. The Notes will be issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Indenture”), to be dated on or about December 12, 2014, by and among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”) and as collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”) and will be secured by a Security Agreement, between the Company, the subsidiary guarantors and the Collateral Agent (the “Security Agreement”). The Notes will be guaranteed by the Company’s future domestic material subsidiaries, if any (as defined in the Indenture). The Company will deposit an amount equal to 24 percent of the |
112027870
aggregate principal amount of the Notes purchased pursuant to this Agreement and the Other Agreements into an escrow account pursuant to an Escrow Agreement, dated on or about December 12, 2014 (the “Escrow Agreement”), by and between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, to provide for the payment of interest and other amounts on the Notes. The Warrants will be issued pursuant to warrant agreements (each a “Warrant Agreement,” and, collectively, the “Warrant Agreements”), to be dated on or about December 12, 2014, each duly executed by the Company. When executed and delivered, the Indenture and Warrant Agreement will conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof in the Time of Sale Document and the Placement Memorandum, with customary additional provisions. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the “Description of Notes” and “Description of Warrants” sections of the private placement memorandum, dated December 4, 2014 (the “Placement Memorandum”), as supplemented by the Term Sheet, dated December 4, 2014 attached hereto as Schedule II (the “Pricing Supplement” and together with the Placement Memorandum, the “Time of Sale Document”).
4. | At the Closing, the Company will, subject to the terms of this Agreement (including the terms and conditions set forth in Annex B), issue and sell to the Purchaser and the Purchaser will buy from the Company, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the number of Notes and Warrants shown on the signature page hereof or, in the case of the Accounts, on Schedule I hereto. |
5. | The Company is simultaneously entering into this same form of purchase agreement with certain other investors (such purchase agreements, the “Other Agreements,” and such other investors, the “Other Purchasers”) and expects to complete sales of the Notes and Warrants to them. This Agreement and the purchase agreements executed by the Other Purchasers are hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as the “Agreements.” The obligations of the Other Purchasers under the Other Agreements are separate and independent from the obligations of the Purchasers under this Agreement, and the total aggregate amount of Notes and Warrants sold pursuant to all of the Agreements, and the aggregate net proceeds of the offering described in the Placement Memorandum, may be reduced to the extent any Other Purchaser fails to purchase securities pursuant to any Other Agreement. |
6. | The Notes purchased by each Purchaser (other than Affiliated Purchasers (as defined below)) will be delivered by electronic book-entry through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), to an account specified by each Purchaser set forth below, and will be released by the Trustee via Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (“DWAC”), at the written instruction of the Company, to such Purchaser at the Closing (as defined below). The Notes purchased by certain of the Company’s existing stockholders and officers identified on Schedule III (each, an “Affiliated Purchaser” and, collectively, the “Affiliated Purchasers”) will be issued in definitive form and will be delivered to the Affiliated Purchaser via overnight courier. The Warrants purchased by each Purchaser will be issued in certificated form and will be delivered to the Purchaser via overnight courier. Delivery of the Notes and Warrants will be made to the Purchasers |
112027870
on or about the 5th business day following the date of this Agreement, subject to extension pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (such settlement being referred to as “T+5”). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, Purchasers who wish to trade Notes or Warrants prior to the delivery of the notes or warrants hereunder may be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes and Warrants initially settle in T+5, to specify an alternate settlement arrangement at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. The Purchaser hereby agrees to T+5 settlement of the Notes and Warrants.
7. | Upon original issuance thereof, and until such time as the same is no longer required under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Notes, the Warrants and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Notes (the “Note Shares”) and the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”) shall bear the legends set forth in the Placement Memorandum. The Company has prepared (i) a Placement Memorandum and (ii) the Pricing Supplement, which include pricing terms and other information with respect to the Notes and Warrants (the “Pricing Supplement”), in each case relating to the offer and sale of the Notes and Warrants (the “Offering”). All references in this Agreement to the Time of Sale Document or the Placement Memorandum include, unless expressly stated otherwise, (i) all amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) all documents, financial statements and schedules and other information contained therein (and references in this Agreement to such information being “contained,” “included” or “stated” (and other references of like import) in the Placement Memorandum or the Time of Sale Document shall be deemed to mean all such information contained therein) and (iii) any offering memorandum “wrapper” used in connection with offers to sell, solicitations of offers to buy or sales of the Notes and Warrants in non-U.S. jurisdictions. “Time of Sale” means 8:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date hereof or otherwise such other time as may be agreed upon in writing by the Company and the Purchasers. |
8. | The Notes, the Warrants and, where applicable, the Warrant Shares and Note Shares, are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities.” This Agreement, the Indenture, the Warrant Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Notes and the Warrants are collectively referred to herein as the “Documents,” and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby are collectively referred to herein as the “Transactions.” |

1.2 Closing Deliveries. At the Closing, (a) the Purchaser shall pay, in immediately available funds, the aggregate purchase price (the “Aggregate Purchase Price”) for the Notes and Warrants being purchased hereunder by wire transfer to the account specified by the Closing Agent, (b) delivery of the Notes, dated as of the Closing Date and in such principal amount as is being purchased by each Purchaser, shall be made (i) through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) in accordance with DTC procedures for book-entry settlement representing the principal amount of the Notes, in the case of Notes purchased by Purchasers other than the Affiliated Purchasers (and Jefferies, as Closing Agent, shall have submitted to DTC a DTC Eligibility Questionnaire for such Notes prior to Closing), and (ii) to the Affiliated Purchaser via overnight courier, in the case of the Notes purchased by the Affiliated Purchasers, and (c) the Warrants will be sent via overnight courier to the Purchaser. The Notes and the Warrants will bear an appropriate legend referring to the fact that the Notes and Warrants were sold in reliance upon the exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), provided by Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Rule 506 thereunder as described in the Placement Memorandum. In addition, the Notes and Warrants purchased by Affiliated Purchasers will bear an appropriate legend referring to the fact that the Affiliated Purchaser will not resell or otherwise transfer any of the Notes, Warrants, Note Shares or Warrant Shares prior to the date that is the later of (a) one year after the last original issue date of the Notes or such shorter period of time as permitted by Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any successor provision thereunder, and (b) such later date, if any, as may be required by applicable law, except (i) to the Company or one of the Subsidiaries of the Company or (ii) pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective under the Securities Act. The name(s) in which the book-entry Notes are to be registered, or certificated Notes are to be issued to Affiliated Purchasers and the address to which they are to be sent, and the name in which the Warrants are to be issued and the address to which they are to be sent, are set forth in the Purchaser Questionnaire attached as Annex A to the Agreement.
1.3 Closing Mechanics.
Annex B-1.
112027870 v8
(a) One business day prior to the Closing, Jefferies LLC (“Jefferies”) as closing agent (in such capacity, the “Closing Agent”) will contact the contact person for each Undersigned to confirm the closing mechanics set forth herein.
(b) On or before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Closing Date, the Purchaser will pay the Aggregate Purchase Price for the Notes and Warrants being purchased hereunder to the Closing Agent as required by Section 1.2. In the event that the Purchaser shall fail to deliver all or any portion of the purchase price for the Notes and Warrants being purchased on or before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Closing Date as required by Section 1.2, the Closing Agent shall be permitted (but shall not be obligated), in its sole discretion, to fund the Aggregate Purchase Price for the Notes and Warrants being purchased on behalf of the Purchaser; provided, however, that the funding of the purchase of any Notes and Warrants by the Closing Agent pursuant to this Section 1.3(b) shall not relieve the Purchaser or the Undersigned of any liability that it may have to the Company or the Closing Agent pursuant to this Agreement or for the breach of its obligations under this Agreement. In any such case in which the Closing Agent, in its sole discretion, has elected to fund the purchase price for the Notes and Warrants being purchased on behalf of the Purchaser, if the Purchaser has not fulfilled its obligation to purchase the Notes and Warrants as set forth herein within two business days of the Closing Date, the Closing Agent shall thereafter be entitled to retain the certificates representing the Notes and Warrants and, if so requested by the Closing Agent, the Company shall transfer registration of such Notes and Warrants to or as directed by the Closing Agent.

(d) The receipt of funds by the Closing Agent from the Purchaser shall be deemed to be irrevocable instructions from the Purchaser and the Undersigned to the Closing Agent that the conditions to the Closing have been satisfied.
(e) Funds received by the Closing Agent on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Section 1 (or funded by the Closing Agent in its sole discretion pursuant to Section 1.3(c)) will be held in trust and not as property or in the title of the Closing Agent. On the Closing Date, or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, the Closing Agent shall disburse such funds (net of the agreed amount of fees and expenses of Jefferies as the placement agent) by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the Company’s written wire instructions (which shall be provided to the Closing Agent at least one business day prior to the Closing Date), unless otherwise agreed to by the Company and the Closing Agent.

(f) Upon receipt of the purchase price from the Purchaser, the Closing Agent will cause the delivery of such funds to the Company, pursuant to written instructions from the Company (which shall be provided to the Closing Agent at least one business day prior to the Closing Date).
