Section 1.2 Interpretation. In this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, unless the context otherwise requires, all words and personal pronouns relating thereto shall be read and construed as the number and gender of the party or parties requires and the verb shall be read and construed as agreeing with the required word and pronoun. The division of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents into Articles and Sections and the use of headings and captions is for convenience of reference only and shall not modify or affect the interpretation or construction of this Agreement or any of its provisions. The words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder,” “hereinafter” and “hereto” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement (or other applicable Loan Document) as a whole and not to any particular Article or Section hereof (or thereof). The term “or” has, except where otherwise indicated, the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or.” The term “documents” and “agreements” include any and all instruments, documents, agreements, certificates, indentures, notices and other writings, however evidenced. The use in any of the Loan Documents of the word “include” or “including,” when following any general statement, term or matter, shall not be construed to limit such statement, term or matter to the specific items or matters set forth immediately following such word or to similar items or matters, whether or not non-limiting language (such as “without limitation” or “but not limited to” or words of similar import) is used with reference thereto, but rather shall be deemed to refer to all other items or matters that fall within the broadest possible scope of such general statement, term or matter. References to a specified Article, Exhibit, Section or Schedule shall be construed as a reference to that specified Article, Exhibit, Section or Schedule of this Agreement (or other applicable Loan Document). Unless specifically stated otherwise, any reference to any of the Loan Documents means such document as the same shall be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified and from time to time in effect. The references to “asset” (or “assets”) and “property” (or “properties”) in the Loan Documents are meant to be mean the same and are used throughout the Loan Documents interchangeably, and such words shall be deemed to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, Stock, accounts and contract rights. Unless otherwise specified herein or therein, all terms defined in any Loan Document shall have the defined meanings when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto or thereto. The meanings of defined terms shall be equally applicable to the singular and plural forms of the defined terms. Terms (including uncapitalized terms) not otherwise defined herein and that are defined in the UCC shall have the meanings therein described. In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and including”; the word “since” means “since and including”; the words “to” and “until” each mean “to but excluding,” and the word “through” means “to and including.” If any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document refers to any action taken or to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, unless otherwise expressly stated, such provision shall be interpreted to encompass any and all means, direct or indirect, of taking, or not taking, such action. References to any statute or regulation may be made by using either the common or public name thereof or a specific cite reference and, except as otherwise provided with respect to FATCA, are to be construed as including all statutory and regulatory provisions related thereto or consolidating, amending, replacing, supplementing or interpreting the statute or regulation, and any reference to any law or regulation, shall, unless otherwise specified, refer to such law or regulation as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time. Whenever any reference is made in any Loan Document to any Person such reference shall be construed to include such Person’s permitted successors and permitted assigns. Any financial ratios required to be satisfied in order for a specific action to be permitted under any Loan Document shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein or therein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a rounding-up if there is no nearest number). Unless otherwise specified, all references in any Loan Document to times of day shall be references to New York City time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, any
41
reference to “Organizational Document” or “Organizational Documents” of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries in any Loan Document shall mean such written documents, agreements and arrangements that are in effect on the Prior Agreement Date after giving effect to the Transactions occurring on the Prior Agreement Date that have been approved by Agent, without giving effect to any amendment, restatement, change, supplement, waiver or other modification thereto or thereof that is not permitted by Section 5.2(x). The terms “shall” and “will” are used interchangeably in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and mean for the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries to have an absolute obligation to perform or do (or not perform or do) a certain action or event, as the context may require. Any reference to “payment in full”, “paid in full”, “repaid in full”, “prepaid in full”, “redeemed in full”, “no Obligations remain outstanding” or any other term or word of similar effect used in this Agreement or any other Loan Document with respect to the Loans or the Obligations shall mean all Obligations (including any Non-Callable Make Whole Amount, any CoC Fee and the Exit Payment) (other than (y) unasserted contingent indemnification obligations and (z) those Obligations under any Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement that are not due or payable at the time when all other Obligations are paid in full in cash) have been repaid in full in cash, have been fully performed and no longer remain outstanding.
Section 1.3 Business Day Adjustment. Except as otherwise expressly stated herein or in any other Loan Document, if the day by which any payment or other performance is due to be made is not a Business Day, that payment or performance shall be made by the next succeeding Business Day unless that next succeeding Business Day falls in a different calendar month, in which case that payment or other performance shall be made by the Business Day immediately preceding the day by which such payment or other performance is due to be made; provided that interest will continue to accrue each additional day in connection therewith.
Section 1.4 Loan Records.
(a) The Borrower shall record on its books and records the amount of the Loan, the type and tranche of the Loans (whether the Loan is a First Out Waterfall Loan or a Last Out Waterfall Loan), the interest rate applicable thereto, all payments of principal and interest thereon and the principal balance thereof from time to time outstanding.
(b) The Borrower shall establish and maintain at its address referred to in Section 6.1, a record of ownership (the “Register”) in which the Borrower agrees to register by book entry the interests (including any rights to receive payment hereunder) of each Lender in the Loan (including whether the Lender is a First Out Waterfall Lender or a Last Out Waterfall Lender and whether the Loan is a First Out Waterfall Loan or a Last Out Waterfall Lender), and any assignment of any such interest or interests. The Borrower shall maintain such Register in accordance with usual and customary business practices and the Borrower shall record (1) the names and addresses of the Lenders (and any change thereto pursuant to this Agreement), (2) the amount of the Loan (and whether the amount of such Loan is related to a First Out Waterfall Loan or a Last Out Waterfall Loan) and each funding of any participation therein, (3) the amount of any principal, interest, fee or other amount due and payable or paid, and (4) any other payment received by the Lenders from the Borrower and its application to the Loan.
(c) The Loans made by each Lender are evidenced by this Agreement and the Loan Notes issued pursuant to the Prior Facility Agreement. On the Agreement Date, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to (x) each First Out Waterfall Lender, a new First Out Waterfall Note and (y) each Last Out Waterfall Lender, a new Last Out Waterfall Note, and after the Agreement Date the Borrower shall execute and deliver to each Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so requested by any assignee Lender pursuant to the assignment provisions of Section 6.5) on the date of request by such Lender an amended and restated Loan Note or new Loan Note (which (i) if to a First Out Waterfall Lender, shall be substantially in the form of a First Out Waterfall Note attached hereto as Exhibit A-1, and (ii) if to a Last Out Waterfall Lender, shall be
42
substantially in the form of a Last Out Waterfall Note attached hereto as Exhibit A-2 (in each case, with any amendment and restatement mechanics built in as necessary that are in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such applicable Lender and the Agent)), in each case, payable to such Lender in an amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the Loans held by such Lender (which, at the request of such Lender shall be in the form of separate Loan Notes (taking into account the type and tranche of Loan) for separate or different parts of the Loans (taking into account the type and tranche of Loan) held by such Lender). For the avoidance of doubt, each “Loan Note” (as defined in the Prior Facility Agreement) issued, executed and/or delivered by the Borrower prior to the Agreement Date remains valid, binding and enforceable against the Borrower and continues to evidence and cover the Loans and other Obligations owed to such Lender that is the holder or beneficiary of such Loan Note and, effective on the Agreement Date, shall be deemed amended and restated to be in the form of the First Out Waterfall Loan Note attached hereto as Exhibit A-1 (whether or not the new First Out Waterfall Loan Notes have then been delivered to the First Out Waterfall Lenders as required hereby). On and after the Agreement Date, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the First Out Waterfall Notes (and the First Out Waterfall Loans evidenced thereby) shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock as provided in the First Out Waterfall Notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Loans (including any Note(s) evidencing the Loans) are registered obligations, the right, title and interest of the Lenders and their successors and assignees in and to the Loan shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the Register and no assignment thereof shall be effective until recorded therein. This Section 1.4 shall be construed so that the Loan is at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code.
(d) The Borrower, Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement. Information contained in the Register with respect to any Lender shall be available for access by the Borrower, Agent or such Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice, or when an Event of Default or Default exists, with just notice (whether reasonable or not) by Agent or any such Lender.
Section 1.5 Accounting Terms and Principles. All accounting determinations required to be made pursuant hereto shall, unless expressly otherwise provided herein, be made in accordance with GAAP. No change in the accounting principles used in the preparation of any financial statement hereafter adopted by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries (including, with respect to GAAP, any change in GAAP that would require leases that would be classified as operating leases under GAAP on the Agreement Date to be reclassified as Capital Leases) shall be given effect for purposes of measuring compliance with any provision of this Agreement or otherwise determining any relevant ratios and baskets which govern whether any action is permitted hereunder unless the Borrower and the Agent agree to modify such provisions to reflect such changes in GAAP, and unless such provisions are modified, all financial statements and similar documents provided hereunder shall be provided together with a reconciliation between the calculations and amounts set forth therein before and after giving effect to such changes in GAAP. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein or in any other Loan Document, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein and in the other Loan Documents shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein and in the other Loan Documents shall be made, without giving effect to any election under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159 (Codification of Accounting Standards 825-10) to value any Indebtedness or other liabilities of any Loan Party or any Subsidiary at “fair value,” as defined therein.
Section 1.6 Tax Treatment. It is the intention and agreement of the Parties that the changes to the Borrower’s existing indebtedness owed to the Lenders that are being effectuated pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated for federal income tax purposes as made pursuant to and as part of a plan of recapitalization and reorganization of the Borrower described in Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code. The
43
Parties shall prepare their income Tax Returns consistent with this treatment unless otherwise required by applicable federal income Tax law.
Section 1.7 Officers. Any document, agreement or instrument delivered under the Loan Documents that is signed by an Authorized Officer or another officer of a Loan Party shall be conclusively presumed to have been authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership and/or other action on the part of such Loan Party and such Authorized Officer or other officer shall be conclusively presumed to have acted on behalf of such Loan Party in such person’s capacity as an officer of such Loan Party and not in any individual capacity.
Section 1.8 Joint Drafting and Negotiation. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question or intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

If any principal on Loans are prepaid, repaid, redeemed or paid (A) prior to the First Amortization Date for any reason (such as an acceleration of the Loans following the occurrence of an Event of Default, an exercise of any Secured Party’s rights or remedies available under the Loan Documents, an exercise of any rights or remedies by ABL Agent, an ABL Lender or any other party to the ABL Debt Documents, upon the consummation of a Change of Control, pursuant to Section 5.3, by any optional prepayment or otherwise), then the amount (in addition to the principal amount of the Loans and any accrued and unpaid interest owed thereon) required to be prepaid, repaid, redeemed or paid shall be the Non-Callable Make Whole Amount applicable to the principal amount of Loans so prepaid, repaid, redeemed or paid (plus, if In Connection with a Change of Control, the CoC Fee) or (B) on or after the First Amortization Date but prior to the Maturity Date, In Connection with a Change of Control, then the amount (in addition to the principal amount of the Loans and any accrued and unpaid interest owed thereon) required to be prepaid, repaid, redeemed or paid shall be the CoC Fee. The Non-Callable Make Whole Amount (together with any applicable CoC Fee) shall be paid by the Borrower to the Lenders based on their Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of the Loans on the date of such prepayment, repayment, redemption or payment. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, in light of the impracticality and extreme
46
difficulty of ascertaining actual damages, the Non-Callable Make Whole Amount and any CoC Fee are intended to be a reasonable calculation of the actual damages that would be suffered by the Secured Parties as a result of any such prepayment, repayment, redemption or payment. The parties hereto further acknowledge and agree that the Non-Callable Make Whole Amount and the CoC Fee are not intended to act as a penalty or to punish the Borrower for any such prepayment, repayment, redemption or payment. For the avoidance of doubt, other than as set forth above in clause (B) in the second sentence of this Section 2.3(c), prepayments of the Loans made on or after the First Amortization Date, in whole or in part, are permitted and may be made without premium or penalty.
(d) Each prepayment, repayment, redemption and payment by the Borrower or any Loan Party (and all proceeds of Collateral) shall be applied as follows:
(i) So long as no Application Event has occurred and in continuing, to (A)(1) all principal amortization payments of the Loans shall be paid as set forth in Section 2.3(a) and (2) all other principal prepayments, repayments, redemptions and payments and all interest payments shall be paid by the Borrower and the other Loan Parties (and any such amounts received by Agent shall be apportioned) ratably among the Secured Parties (according to the unpaid principal balance of the principal and interest to which such payments relate held by each Secured Party) and (B) all payments of fees, expenses and other Obligations (that, for the avoidance of doubt, are not covered in clause (A) above) shall be paid by the Borrower and the other Loan Parties (and any such amounts received by Agent shall be apportioned), other than such fees, expenses or other Obligations that are, based on the express terms of the Loan Documents, for a Secured Party’s separate account, ratably among the Secured Parties having a Pro Rata Share of the type of Obligation to which such a particular fee, expense or other Obligation relates. All payments to be made hereunder by the Borrower or the other Loan Parties shall be remitted to the Lenders (other than amounts owed specifically to Agent or such other Secured Party) and all such payments, and all proceeds of Collateral paid by the Borrower or any other Loan Party to the Lenders or received by Agent (or any other Secured Party), shall be applied, so long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing, to reduce the balance of the Loans and other Obligations outstanding.
(ii) At any time that an Application Event has occurred and is continuing, as follows: (i) first, to all fees, costs and expenses (including any attorneys’ fees) owed to Agent under the Loan Documents, (ii) second, ratably to all fees, costs and expenses (including any attorneys’ fees) owed to any First Out Waterfall Lender under the Loan Documents, (iii) third, ratably to accrued and unpaid interest owed to the First Out Waterfall Lenders under the Loan Documents, (iv) fourth, ratably to the principal amount of the Loans (including any Non-Callable Make Whole Amount, any CoC Fee and the First Out Waterfall Loan Exit Payment, if applicable) owed to the First Out Waterfall Lenders, (v) fifth, ratably to all other First Out Obligations (other than any First Out Obligations in respect of any Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement that are not at such time owing, due or unpaid) owing to Agent or the other First Out Waterfall Secured Parties, and with respect to any such First Out Waterfall Obligations owed to Agent and the other First Out Waterfall Secured Parties, shall be allocated ratably among Agent and the other First Out Waterfall Secured Parties based on their pro rata share of such other First Out Waterfall Secured Parties, (vi) sixth, ratably to all fees, costs and expenses (including any attorneys’ fees) owed to any Last Out Waterfall Lender under the Loan Documents, (vii) seventh, ratably to accrued and unpaid interest owed to the Last Out Waterfall Lenders under the Loan Documents, (viii) eighth, ratably to the principal amount of the Loans (including any Non-Callable Make Whole Amount and any CoC Fee, if applicable) owed

With respect to any prepayments, repayments, redemptions, payments or distributions in cash, property or other assets that any Last Out Waterfall Lender pays over to Agent or any First Out Waterfall Lender under the terms of this Agreement, such Last Out Waterfall Lender will be subrogated to the rights of First Out Waterfall Lenders; provided, that no Last Out Waterfall Lender may assert or enforce any such rights of subrogation it may acquire as a result of any prepayment, repayment, redemption, payment or distribution hereunder until all First Out Waterfall Obligations (other than (y) unasserted contingent indemnification obligations and (z) those First Out Waterfall Obligations under any Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement) have been paid in full in cash. Each Last Out Waterfall Lender agrees that any prepayments, repayments, redemptions, payments or distributions in respect of the Last Out Waterfall Obligations received by such Last Out Waterfall Lender in violation of this Agreement shall be as promptly as practicable paid over to Agent, for the benefit of the First Out Waterfall First Out Waterfall Lenders, in respect of the First Out Waterfall Obligations, in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements, to be applied in accordance with this Agreement, and each Last Out Waterfall Lender hereby authorizes Agent to make any such endorsements as agent for the Last Out Waterfall Lenders (which authorization, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable).
(e) Any principal of any Loan that is prepaid, repaid, redeemed or paid pursuant to Section 2.3(c) or Section 5.3 shall be applied to the scheduled principal payments of the Loans in the inverse order of maturity.
(f) (i) From and after the Agreement Date, any conversion of principal under a First Out Waterfall Note by any First Out Waterfall Lender or payment by any First Out Waterfall Lender of the Exercise Price of any Warrant by reducing the principal amount of such First Out Waterfall Lender’s First Out Waterfall Loan in an amount equal to such Exercise Price, shall be applied against, and reduce, the Scheduled First Amortization Payment of First Out Waterfall Loans that is owed to such First Out Waterfall Lender until the earlier of (A) the time the Scheduled First Amortization Payment of First Out Waterfall Loans that is owed to such converting or exercising First Out Waterfall Lender(s) has been satisfied in full through conversions thereof and/or payments of the Exercise Price of Warrants, and (B) 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Trading Day immediately preceding the First Amortization Date; (ii) from and after the earlier of the time set forth in clauses (i)(A) and (i)(B) above, any conversions of principal under a First Out Waterfall Note issued to any such converting First Out Waterfall Lender or payment by any First Out Waterfall Lender of the Exercise Price of any Warrant by reducing the principal amount of such First Out Waterfall Lender’s First Out Waterfall Loan in an amount equal to such Exercise Price shall be applied against, and reduce, the Scheduled Second Amortization Payment of First Out Waterfall Loans owed to such First Out Waterfall Lender until the earliest of (A) the time that an aggregate of $60,000,000 has been applied against, and reduced, the Scheduled Amortization Payments pursuant to this clause (ii) and clause (i) above, (B) the time the Scheduled Second Amortization Payment of First Out Waterfall Loans that is owed to such converting or exercising First Out Waterfall Lender(s) has been satisfied in full through conversions thereof and/or payments of the Exercise Price of Warrants, and (C) 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Second Amortization Date; and (iii) from and after the earliest of the times set forth in clauses (ii)(A) and (ii)(B) above, one-half (50%) of any conversion of principal under a First Out Waterfall Note issued to any such converting First Out Waterfall Lender or payment by any First Out Waterfall Lender of the Exercise Price of any Warrant by reducing the principal amount of such First Out Waterfall Lender’s First Out Waterfall Loan in an amount equal to such Exercise
48
Price shall be applied against, and reduce, the Scheduled Second Amortization Payment owed to such converting or exercising First Out Waterfall Lender and the other half (50%) shall be applied against, and reduce, the principal amount payable on the Maturity Date to such converting or exercising First Out Waterfall Lender, until the earlier of (X) the time the Scheduled Second Amortization Payment owed to such converting or exercising First Out Waterfall Lenders has been satisfied in full through conversions thereof and/or payments of the Exercise Price of Warrants, and (Y) 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Second Amortization Date; and (iii) thereafter, any conversion of principal under the First Out Waterfall Notes issued to such converting First Out Waterfall Lender(s) or payment by any First Out Waterfall Lender of the Exercise Price of any Warrant by reducing the principal amount of such First Out Waterfall Lender’s First Out Waterfall Loan in an amount equal to such Exercise Price shall be applied against, and reduce, the principal amount due and payable on the Maturity Date to such converting or exercising First Out Waterfall Lender . Each Lender and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that, following the date hereof, to the extent any conversion of any First Out Waterfall Note issued to a converting First Out Waterfall Lender or payment by any First Out Waterfall Lender of the Exercise Price of any Warrant by reducing the principal amount of such First Out Waterfall Lender’s First Out Waterfall Loan in an amount equal to such Exercise Price reduces the principal payment due and payable on any date to such converting or exercising First Out Waterfall Lender, such reduction shall be applied to the portion of such payment due under the applicable First Out Waterfall Notes held by each of the converting First Out Waterfall Lender on a pro rata basis in accordance with each such converting First Out Waterfall Lender’s First Out Waterfall Lender Percentage with respect to the First Out Waterfall Notes. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.3(f) is not applicable (and not available) to any Last Out Waterfall Notes or Last Out Waterfall Loans.
Section 2.4 Payment Details. All payments of the Obligations by the Borrower hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be paid in cash in Dollars.

The Borrower shall pay all and any fees, costs and expenses (administrative or otherwise) imposed by banks, clearing houses or any other financial institutions in connection with making any payments under any of the Loan Documents.
Section 2.5 Taxes.
(a) Any and all payments on account of any Obligation of a Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document (in each case in this Section 2.5, for the avoidance of doubt, not including Obligations in respect of any Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement) shall be made, in accordance with this Section 2.5, free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any and all present or future Taxes except as required by Applicable Law. If any Loan Party shall be required by Applicable Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (i) such Loan Party shall make such deduction or withholding, (ii) such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, and (iii) to the extent that the deduction or withholding is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased by as much as shall be necessary so that after making the required deduction or withholding (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.5), each Lender shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made (any and all such additional amounts payable shall hereafter be referred to as the “Additional Amounts”). Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of such Taxes, the Borrower shall furnish to the applicable Lender the original or a certified
49
copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to such Lender.
(b) In addition, the Loan Parties agree to pay and authorize each Lender to pay in their name, all Other Taxes. Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Other Taxes by any Loan Party, the Borrower shall furnish to the applicable Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to such Lender.
(c) The Borrower shall reimburse and indemnify, within ten (10) days after receipt of demand therefor, each Lender for all Indemnified Taxes (including all Indemnified Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 2.5(c)) paid or payable by such Lender, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. A certificate of the applicable Lender(s) setting forth the amounts to be paid thereunder and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(d) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentence, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth below in this Section 2.5(d)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s good faith judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing each Lender that is a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall, on or before the date on which the Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, provide to Borrower and the Agent a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is not subject to backup withholding tax. Each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a “Foreign Lender”) and is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement shall, on or before the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, provide Borrower and the Agent with a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN-E, W-8IMY (with proper attachments) or other applicable forms or any other applicable certificate or document reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent and prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made and, if such Foreign Lender is relying on the portfolio interest exception of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code (or any successor provision thereto), shall also provide the Borrower with a certificate (the “Portfolio Interest Certificate”) representing that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code (or any successor provision thereto), is not a 10% holder of the Borrower described in Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code (or any successor provision thereto), and is not a controlled foreign corporation receiving interest from a related person (within the meaning of Sections 881(c)(3)(C) and 864(d)(4) of the Code or any successor provisions thereto). If the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a Portfolio Interest Certificate on behalf of such partners. Each Lender shall provide new forms (or successor forms) as reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent from time to time and shall notify the Borrower and the Agent in writing within a reasonable time after becoming aware of any event requiring a change in the most recent forms previously delivered by such Lender to the Borrower or the Agent.
50
(e) If a payment to a Lender under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, at the times prescribed by law or as reasonably requested by Borrower or the Agent, such documentation as is required in order for the Borrower or the Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.5(e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Agreement Date.
(f) If a Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.5 (including all Indemnified Taxes imposed on amounts payable under Section 2.5(c)), such Lender shall promptly pay such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.5 with respect to the Taxes refunded) to the Borrower, net of all out-of-pocket expense (including any Taxes imposed thereon) of such Lender incurred in obtaining such refund or making such payment, provided that the Borrower, upon the request of such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Lender if such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.5(f), in no event shall a Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.5(f), the payment of which would place such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments with respect to such Tax had never been paid. Nothing in this Section 2.5(f) shall require any Lender to disclose any information it deems confidential (including its tax returns) to any Person, including the Borrower.
Section 2.6 Interest.
(a) From (and including) and after the Prior Agreement Date, the outstanding principal amount of the Loans and any overdue interest shall bear interest at the Interest Rate (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed in each month). From (and including) the Prior Agreement Date until (but not including) the Agreement Date, interest with respect to the Interest Rate shall be paid in cash to the Lenders quarterly in arrears for the preceding calendar quarter on the on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, whether by acceleration or otherwise, commencing on July 1, 2017 and on the first Business Day of each October, January, April and July thereafter through and including the calendar quarter commencing October 1, 2018. From (and including) and after the Agreement Date, interest with respect to the Cash Interest Rate (which, for the avoidance of doubt, does not include any interest mentioned in the immediately preceding sentence) shall be paid in cash to the Lenders quarterly in arrears for the preceding calendar quarter on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, whether by acceleration or otherwise, commencing on July 1, 2017 and on the first Business Day of each October, January, April and July thereafter, and on the maturity (and on any date of prepayment, repayment, redemption or payment of the principal) of the Loans (each, an “Interest Payment Date”); provided, however, from and after the Agreement Date, that in lieu of making any payment of interest with respect to the Cash Interest Rate in cash on an Interest Payment Date pursuant to this Section 2.6 (but not interest payable (x) pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, (y) pursuant to Section 2.7 and (z) with respect to the PIK Interest Rate) and subject to the conditions set forth in Exhibit 2.6, the Borrower may elect to satisfy all or any part of such payment with respect to First Out Waterfall Loans only (and, for the avoidance of doubt, not any Last Out Waterfall Loans) by the issuance to the First Out Waterfall Lenders of shares of Freely Tradable Common Shares (as defined in Exhibit 2.6) in accordance with the provisions of Exhibit 2.6; provided that, not later than the first Business Day prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date, the Borrower shall provide written notice to the Agent of the amount of such payment satisfied pursuant to Exhibit 2.6. From (and including) and after the Agreement Date, interest with respect
51
to the PIK Interest Rate shall be paid in-kind on each Interest Payment Date (which, for the avoidance of doubt, does not include any interest mentioned in the second sentence of this Section 2.6(a)) by increasing the principal amount of the Loans by an amount equal to the interest that has accrued at the PIK Interest Rate during such period (such payment, a “PIK Interest Payment”). Following an increase in the principal amount of the Loans as a result of a PIK Interest Payment, the Loans will bear interest at the Interest Rate on such increased principal amount from and after the date of such PIK Interest Payment and such increased principal amount shall constitute “Obligations”.
(b) [Reserved].
(c) All interest, fees and other amounts under each Loan Document shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.
Section 2.7 Yield Enhancement Payment; Default Interest; CoC Fee; Exit Payment.
(a) On the Prior Agreement Date, the Borrower paid in cash in Dollars to such First Out Waterfall Lender (as such First Out Waterfall Lender funding such First Out Waterfall Disbursement directed) a yield enhancement payment in the amount of two and twenty-fifths of one hundred percent (2.25%) of the principal amount of such First Out Waterfall Disbursement funded by such First Out Waterfall Lender on the Prior Agreement Date as consideration for providing such First Out Waterfall Disbursement, and such payment, at the sole option of the applicable Lender, was able to be deducted from such First Out Waterfall Disbursement. Such payment was fully earned when it was paid (or when it was deducted from such First Out Waterfall Disbursement) and is not and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.
(b) At the election (which upon such election, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, such additional interest rate shall retroactively apply to the first day of existence of such Event of Default) of Agent or the Required Lenders while any Event of Default exists (or automatically while any Event of Default under Section 5.4(a) or 5.4(d) exists), the Borrower shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by Applicable Law) on the Obligations (other than Obligations under any Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement) and past due interest thereon, if any, from and after the date of occurrence of such Event of Default, at a rate per annum which is determined by adding (i) with respect to any Event of Default under Section 5.4(a), ten percent (10.0%) per annum to the Interest Rate then in effect for the Loans and (ii) with respect to any other Event of Default, two percent (2%) per annum to the Interest Rate then in effect for the Loans. Such additional interest shall be payable in cash on demand.
(c) Upon prepayment, repayment, redemption or payment of any principal of the Loans at any time (including, for the avoidance of doubt, before, after and on the date of the First Amortization Date but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, Loans paid in full on the Maturity Date) In Connection with a Change of Control, Borrower shall pay to the Secured Parties the CoC Fee (in addition to any principal Obligations required to be paid pursuant to Section 5.3 and any applicable Non-Callable Make Whole Amount due pursuant to Section 2.3(c)) based on their Pro Rata Share of the principal of the Loans on the date of such prepayment, repayment, redemption or payment of such Loans; provided, however that if such prepayment, repayment, redemption or payment is In Connection with a Change of Control but prior to the consummation of the Change of Control, the CoC Fee shall be due and payable contemporaneously with the consummation of a Change of Control. The CoC Fee shall be non-refundable upon receiving payment thereof. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, in light of the impracticality and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages occurring In Connection with a Change of Control, the CoC Fee is intended to be a reasonable calculation of the actual damages that would be suffered by the Secured Parties as a result of any such prepayment, repayment, redemption or payment. The parties hereto
52
further acknowledge and agree that the CoC Fee is not intended to act as a penalty or to punish the Borrower for any such prepayment, repayment, redemption or payment.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents, on the date when the remaining First Out Waterfall Loans outstanding are paid, repaid, redeemed or prepaid (in each case, whether before, at the time of or after the Maturity Date or any acceleration, bankruptcy, insolvency or otherwise), in an amount that causes (or such lesser amount of outstanding First Out Waterfall Loans that are so paid, repaid, redeemed or prepaid that the First Out Waterfall Lenders have agreed to cause) the principal amount of remaining First Out Waterfall Loans outstanding to be less than $10,000,000, the Borrower shall pay in cash at such time to the First Out Waterfall Lenders (based on their First Out Waterfall Pro Rata Share of such First Out Waterfall Loans) a non-refundable exit payment (the “First Out Waterfall Loan Exit Payment”) in a total amount equal to $5,000,000. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Agent and the First Out Waterfall Lenders would not have entered into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents without the Borrower agreeing to pay the First Out Waterfall Loan Exit Payment in the aforementioned instances. The Parties further acknowledge and agree that the First Out Waterfall Loan Exit Payment set forth in this Section 2.7(d) is not intended to act as a penalty or to punish the Borrower or any other Loan Party for any such payment, repayment, redemption or prepayment.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents, on the date when the remaining Last Out Waterfall Loans outstanding are paid, repaid, redeemed or prepaid (in each case, whether before, at the time of or after the Maturity Date or any acceleration, bankruptcy, insolvency or otherwise), in an amount that causes (or such lesser amount of outstanding Last Out Waterfall Loans that are so paid, repaid, redeemed or prepaid that the Last Out Waterfall Lenders have agreed to cause) the principal amount of remaining Last Out Waterfall Loans outstanding to be less than $10,000,000, the Borrower shall pay in cash at such time to the Last Out Waterfall Lenders (based on their Last Out Waterfall Pro Rata Share of such Last Out Waterfall Loans) a non-refundable exit payment (the “Last Out Waterfall Loan Exit Payment”) in a total amount equal to $1,113,750. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Agent and the Last Out Waterfall Lenders would not have entered into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents without the Borrower agreeing to pay the Last Out Waterfall Loan Exit Payment in the aforementioned instances. The Parties further acknowledge and agree that the Last Out Waterfall Loan Exit Payment set forth in this Section 2.7(d) is not intended to act as a penalty or to punish the Borrower or any other Loan Party for any such payment, repayment, redemption or prepayment.

53
be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Additional Warrants”), with an expiration date of August 9, 2025
(e) The Additional Warrants issued pursuant to Section 2.8(d) shall be allocated on the Agreement Date to the First Waterfall Lenders as set forth on Annex A.

(n) Each Loan Party (i) owns, or, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries, has the right to use pursuant to a valid and enforceable written license, all IP, in each case (and without any knowledge qualifier applicable thereto) free and clear of any Liens other than Permitted Licenses and Permitted Liens. All IP that is registered with or issued by a Governmental Authority that is currently in the name of a Loan Party is, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries, valid and enforceable. Each patent constituting a Material Intangible Asset is, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries, valid and enforceable and no part of the Material Intangible Assets has been judged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part; and, except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(n), there is no pending or, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties, threatened action, suit, other proceeding or claim by any Person challenging or contesting the validity, ownership, or enforceability of any Material Intangible Asset, the use thereof by any Loan Party, or other rights of any Loan Party in or to any Material Intangible Asset, and no Loan Party has received any written notice regarding any such action, suit, other proceeding or claim. With respect to each action, suit, proceeding, claim, challenge, contest, event and disclosure listed on Schedule 3.1(n), none of them could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the conduct of the business of any Loan Party, nor any Loan Party, has infringed, misappropriated or otherwise violated, or is infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating, any Intellectual Property of any Person, except as could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Other than as set forth on Schedule 3.1(h), there is no pending or, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties, threatened action, suit, other proceeding or claim by any
56
Person alleging that any Loan Party is infringing, misappropriating or violating, or otherwise using without authorization, any Intellectual Property of any Person, and no Loan Party has received any written notice regarding, any such action, suit, other proceeding or claim. With respect to each action, suit, proceeding, claim, event or disclosure listed on Schedule 3.1(h), none of them could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Other than as set forth in Section 3.b. of the Perfection Certificate dated as of (and delivered by the Loan Parties on) the Agreement Date, no Loan Party is a party to, or bound by, any options, licenses, franchise or other agreements, written or oral, relating to trademarks, patents, copyrights, other know-how or IP (or granting any right, title or interest in or to any IP) that require annual payments in excess of $25,000 individually.
(o) No Loan Party is, except as could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, in breach of or otherwise in default under, and no event has occurred which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such breach or other default in the performance of any agreement or condition contained in any agreement under which it may be bound, or to which any of its assets is subject.
(p) All U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise and other material Tax returns, reports and statements (collectively, the “Tax Returns”) required to be filed by any Tax Affiliates have been filed with the appropriate Governmental Authorities, all such Tax Returns are true and correct in all material respects, and all Taxes, assessments and other governmental charges and impositions reflected therein or otherwise due and payable have been paid prior to the date on which any material Liability may be added thereto for non-payment thereof except for those contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and for which adequate reserves are maintained on the books of the appropriate Tax Affiliate in accordance with GAAP. As of the Agreement Date, no material Tax Return is under audit or examination by any Governmental Authority, and no Tax Affiliate has received written notice from any Governmental Authority of any audit or examination or any assertion of any claim for material Taxes. To the extent material, proper and accurate amounts have been withheld by each Tax Affiliate from their respective employees for all periods in full and complete compliance with the Tax, social security and unemployment withholding provisions of Applicable Law and such withholdings have been timely paid to the respective Governmental Authorities. No Tax Affiliate has participated in a “listed transaction” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4(b)(2) or has been a member of an affiliated, combined or unitary group other than the group of which a Tax Affiliate is the common parent.
(q) The exchange of the Exchanged Deerfield Convertible Notes for the Last Out Waterfall Loans under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents does not violate or otherwise breach any provision of any of the 3.25% Convertible Note Documents or any other agreements, instruments or documents evidencing any Indebtedness or cause any other holder of any 3.25% Convertible Notes to become due prior to their stated maturity therein.
(r) Except as could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect after the Prior Agreement Date or the Agreement Date, each Loan Party: (i) at all times has complied with all Applicable Laws; (ii) has not received any warning letter or other correspondence or notice from the any Governmental Authority alleging or asserting noncompliance with any Applicable Laws or any Authorizations; (iii) possesses and complies with the Authorizations, which are valid and in full force and effect; (iv) has not received written notice that any Governmental Authority has taken, is taking or intends to take action to limit, suspend, cancel, withdraw, modify or revoke any Authorization and has no knowledge that any Governmental Authority is considering such action; and (v) has filed, obtained, maintained or submitted all reports, documents, forms, notices, applications, records, claims, submissions, renewals and supplements or amendments as required by any Applicable Laws or Authorizations.
57
(s) The Borrower has filed all of the SEC Documents, within the time frames prescribed by the SEC for the filing of such SEC Documents such that each filing was timely filed with the SEC. The Borrower filed and made publicly available on the SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval system (including any successor thereto, “XXXXX”) on or prior to the date this representation is made, true, correct and complete copies of the SEC Documents. As of their respective dates, each of the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and/or the Exchange Act (as applicable) applicable to the SEC Documents. None of the SEC Documents, at the time they were filed with the SEC, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Since the filing of the SEC Documents, no event has occurred that would require an amendment or supplement to any of the SEC Documents and as to which such an amendment or a supplement has not been filed and made publicly available on XXXXX (and true, correct and complete copies of such amendment or supplement, if any, have been delivered to the Secured Parties or their respective representatives) on or prior to the date this representation is made. The Borrower has not received any written comments from the SEC staff that have not been resolved, to the knowledge of the Borrower, to the satisfaction of the SEC staff.
(t) As of their respective dates, the consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries included in the SEC Documents complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied (subject, in the case of unaudited quarterly financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments and lack of footnote disclosures), and fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the consolidated results of their operations, cash flows and changes in stockholders equity for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited quarterly financial statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments and lack of footnote disclosures). The accounting firm that expressed its opinion with respect to the consolidated financial statements included in the Borrower’s most recently filed annual report on 10-K, and reviewed the consolidated financial statements included in the Borrower’s most recently filed quarterly report on 10-Q, was independent of the Borrower pursuant to the standards set forth in Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the SEC and as required by the applicable rules and guidance from the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), and such firm was otherwise qualified to render such opinion under Applicable Law and the rules and regulations of the SEC. There is no transaction, arrangement or other relationship between the Borrower (or any of its Subsidiaries) and an unconsolidated or other off-balance-sheet Person that is required to be disclosed by the Borrower in the SEC Documents that has not been so disclosed in the SEC Documents. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is required to file or will be required to file any agreement, note, lease, mortgage, deed or other instrument entered into prior to the date this representation is made and to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is bound that has not been previously filed as an exhibit (including by way of incorporation by reference) to the Borrower’s reports filed or made with the SEC under the Exchange Act. Other than (i) the liabilities assumed or created pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any fees and expenses in connection therewith, (ii) liabilities accrued for in the latest balance sheet included in the Borrower’s most recent periodic report (on 10-Q or 10-K) filed prior to the Prior Agreement Date (the date of such balance sheet, the “Latest Balance Sheet Date”), (iii) liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice since the later of the (A) Prior Agreement Date and (B) the Latest Balance Sheet Date and (iv) liabilities set forth on the Schedules to this Agreement, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries do not have any other material liabilities (whether fixed or unfixed, known or unknown, absolute or contingent, asserted or unasserted, xxxxxx or inchoate, liquidated or unliquidated, or secured or unsecured, and regardless of when any action, claim, suit or proceeding with respect thereto is instituted). Since December 31, 2016, there has been no Material Adverse Effect or any event or circumstance which could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a
58
Material Adverse Effect. All financial performance projections delivered to any Secured Party, including the financial performance projections delivered on or prior to the Agreement Date, if any, represent the Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ good faith estimate of future financial performance and are based on assumptions believed by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries to be fair and reasonable in light of current market conditions, it being acknowledged and agreed by Agent and the Lenders that projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that the actual results during the period or periods covered by such projections may differ from the projected results and such differences may be material.
(u) The Borrower and its Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset and liability accountability, (iii) access to assets or incurrence of liability is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets and liabilities is compared with the existing assets and liabilities at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences (such internal accounting controls (including clauses (i) – (iv) above), collectively, “Internal Controls”). The Borrower and its Subsidiaries have timely filed and made publicly available on XXXXX all certifications, statements and documents required by Rule 13a-14 or Rule 15d-14 under the Exchange Act. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries maintain disclosure controls and procedures required by Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act; such controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in the reports that they file with or submit to the SEC (A) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (B) is accumulated and communicated to the Borrower’s (and, to the extent applicable, its Subsidiaries’) management, including its or their principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries maintain internal control (including Internal Controls) over financial reporting required by Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act; such internal control (including Internal Controls) over financial reporting is effective and does not contain any material weaknesses.
(v) [Reserved].

59
any obligation or Liability with respect to any Foreign Benefit Plan that, individually or in the aggregate, could be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

The Borrower has reserved for issuance an aggregate number of shares of Common Stock (6,470,000 shares for the Initial Warrants and 8,750,000 shares for the Additional Warrants) sufficient to cover all shares initially issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”) (computed without regard to any limitations on the number of shares that may be issued on exercise thereof). The Conversion Shares, the Interest Payment Shares, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares and any other distributions required to be made now or in the future pursuant to the Warrants (the “Warrant Distributions”) have been duly authorized. The holders of the Initial Warrants are entitled to the rights set forth in the Initial Warrants. Upon issuance of the Additional Warrants in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the holders of the Additional Warrants will be entitled to the rights set forth in the Additional Warrants. Upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with terms thereof, the Warrant Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes and Liens with respect to the issue thereof, with the holders thereof being entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of Common Stock.

Provided that a First Out Waterfall Lender is not an Affiliate of the Borrower on the date of issuance of any Interest Payment Shares to such First Out Waterfall Lender pursuant to this Agreement (including Exhibit 2.6), conversion of any of the
60
First Out Waterfall Notes by such First Out Waterfall Lender or exercise of any of the Warrants by such First Out Waterfall Lender pursuant to a Cashless Exercise, Cashless Major Exercise, Cashless Default Exercise or Note Exchange Exercise and has not been an Affiliate of the Borrower within the three-month period immediately preceding such date (which the Borrower shall assume unless advised otherwise in writing by such First Out Waterfall Lender), the Interest Payment Shares, Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (as applicable) issued to such First Out Waterfall Lender will be freely transferable, without restriction or limitation (including any volume limitation or current public information requirement) under Federal or state securities laws, pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and will not contain or be subject to a legend or stop transfer order restricting the resale or transferability of thereof.

(oo) Neither the Borrower, nor any of its Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made, or will make, any offers or sales of any security or Stock or solicited any offers to buy any security or Stock, under circumstances that would require registration of any of the Securities under the Securities Act or cause this offering of the Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the Borrower for purposes of the Securities Act or any applicable holder of Stock approval provisions of the Principal Market or any other authority.
(pp) The Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken, or will take, any action designed to terminate, or which to the knowledge of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is likely to have the effect of terminating, the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act, nor has the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries received any notification that the SEC is contemplating terminating such registration. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any of the rules, regulations or requirements of the Principal Market, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, there are no facts or circumstances that could reasonably lead to suspension or termination of trading of the Common Stock on the Principal Market.

(rr) The Borrower and the Borrower’s board of directors (or equivalent governing body) have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Borrower’s Organizational Documents or the laws of the State of Delaware that is or could become applicable to any of the Secured Parties as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and the Borrower’s fulfilling its obligations with respect thereto, including the Borrower’s issuance of the Securities and any Secured Party’s ownership of the Securities. As of the Agreement Date, the Borrower has not adopted a stockholders rights plan (or “poison pill”) or similar arrangement relating to accumulations of beneficial ownership of Common Stock or a change in control of the Borrower (any such plan or arrangement, a “Rights Plan”), and after the Prior Agreement Date, the Borrower will not have adopted any Rights Plan that in any way interferes with, or otherwise adversely affects, any First Out Waterfall Lender’s (or other holder’s) exercise in full of its rights under the Warrants and the First Out Waterfall Notes or ownership of
65
all of the Warrant Shares, the Conversion Shares and the Interest Payment Shares or that otherwise affects or applies to any First Out Waterfall Lender (or such other holder of Warrants or Warrant Shares) in any respect that is less favorable than its effect on the most favorably treated holder of Stock of the Borrower under such Rights Plan.

The Borrower further understands and acknowledges that (i) one or more Secured Parties or holders of Securities may engage in hedging and/or trading activities at various times during the period that the Securities are outstanding, and (ii) such hedging and/or trading activities, if any, can reduce the value of the Stock held by the existing holders of Stock of the Borrower, both at and after the time the hedging and/or trading activities are being conducted. The Borrower acknowledges that any such hedging and/or trading activities do not constitute a breach of any Loan Document or affect the rights of any Secured Party or holder of Securities under any Loan Document. The Borrower further acknowledges that its obligations under the Loan Documents, including its obligation to issue the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants and the Conversion Shares upon conversion of the First Out Waterfall Notes, are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim, delay or reduction, regardless of any claim any Loan Party may have against any of the Secured Parties and regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership of the other stockholders of the Borrower.
(tt) The Borrower and the other Loan Parties are solely and jointly and severally responsible for the payment of any fees, costs, expenses and commissions of any placement agent, broker or financial adviser relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents. The Borrower and the other Loan Parties will pay, and hold each of the Secured Parties harmless against, any liability, loss or expense (including attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) arising in connection with any claim for any such payment, other than those arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or any Lender as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

ARTICLE 5
PARTICULAR COVENANTS AND EVENTS OF DEFAULT
Section 5.1 Affirmative Covenants.
For so long as the Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations and other than those Obligations under any Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement; provided that Sections 5.1(h), (p), (s) and (aa) shall survive until the end of the Reporting Period) remain outstanding:
(a) The Loan Parties will and will cause their Subsidiaries to (i) preserve and maintain in full force and effect its organizational existence and good standing under the Applicable Laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, organization or formation, as applicable, other than as permitted under Section 5.2(i), and (ii) preserve and maintain all qualifications to do business in each other jurisdiction not covered by clause (i) above that the failure to be so qualified could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(b) The Loan Parties will, and will cause their Subsidiaries to, (i) comply in all material respects with all Applicable Laws, except where the necessity of compliance therewith is contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings or where failure to do so could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (ii) maintain in effect and enforce policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance by the Loan Parties, their Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers and employees with Anti-Corruption Laws, Anti-Money Laundering Laws and applicable Sanctions.
(c) The Loan Parties will, and will cause their Subsidiaries to, obtain, make and keep in full force and effect all licenses, certificates, approvals, registrations, clearances, Authorizations and permits required to conduct their businesses, except where the failure to make and keep such licenses, certificates, approvals, registrations, clearances, authorizations and permits in full force and effect could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
(d) Each Loan Party will, except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement, maintain, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain, and preserve all its assets and property which is used or useful in its business in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted and will make all necessary repairs thereto and renewals and replacements thereof, except, in each case, where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(e) The Loan Parties will, and will cause each of their Subsidiaries to, maintain with financially sound and reputable insurance companies with respect to their assets, properties and business, against such hazards and liabilities, of such types and in such amounts, as is customarily maintained by companies in the same or similar businesses similarly situated. All property insurance policies covering the Collateral are to be made payable to Agent for the benefit of Agent and the Lenders, as their interests may appear, in case of loss, pursuant to a standard lender’s loss payable endorsement with a standard noncontributory “lender” or “secured party” clause and are to contain such other provisions as Agent may reasonably require to fully protect the Lenders’ interest in the Collateral and to any payments to be made under such policies. All certificates and endorsements of property and general liability insurance are to be delivered to Agent by the Loan Parties, with the lender’s loss payable (but only in respect of Collateral) and additional insured endorsements in favor of Agent and will provide for not less than 30 days (10 days in the case of non-payment) prior written notice to Agent of the exercise of any right of cancellation or any
73
modification thereof; provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, Agent need not be named on any workers compensation or D&O policies. If Loan Parties or their Subsidiaries fail to maintain such insurance, Agent may arrange for such insurance, but at Loan Parties’ expense and without any responsibility on Agent’s part for obtaining the insurance, the solvency of the insurance companies, the adequacy of the coverage, or the collection of claims. The Loan Parties shall give Agent prompt written notice of any loss exceeding $500,000 covered by any Loan Party’s or any Loan Party’s Subsidiary’s casualty or business interruption insurance. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent shall have the sole right to file claims under any property and general liability insurance policies in respect of the Collateral, to receive, receipt and give acquittance for any payments that may be payable thereunder, and to execute any and all endorsements, receipts, releases, assignments, reassignments or other documents that may be necessary to effect the collection, compromise or settlement of any claims under any such insurance policies. A true and complete listing of such insurance, including issuers, coverages and deductibles, will be provided by the Loan Parties to Agent promptly following Agent’s request.
(f) Each Loan Party will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, pay, discharge and perform as the same shall become due and payable or required to be performed all Tax liabilities, assessments and governmental charges or levies upon it or its property, unless the same are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently prosecuted which stay the enforcement of any Lien and for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP are being maintained by such Person.
(g) The Loan Parties will promptly after knowledge (and, in any event, within two (2) Business Days after knowledge) notify the Agent of the occurrence of (A) any Default or Event of Default and (B) so long as such type of notification would not be material nonpublic information of the Borrower, any claims (other than in connection with the denial of plan claims in the ordinary course of business), litigation, arbitration, mediation or administrative or regulatory proceedings that are instituted or threatened against any Loan Party, or claims of infringement by any Person with respect to any Intellectual Property rights of a Loan Party, in each case of this clause (B), to the extent such claim, litigation, arbitration, mediation or administrative or regulatory proceeding could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(h) From the Prior Agreement Date until the later of (y) the first date on which no Warrants remain outstanding, and (z) the first date on which the Secured Parties no longer own any Securities (the period ending on such latest date, the “Reporting Period”), the Borrower and its Subsidiaries will (i) timely (without giving effect to any extensions pursuant to Rule 12b-25 of the Exchange Act) file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act, and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries will not terminate the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act or otherwise terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the Exchange Act, even if the securities laws would otherwise permit any such termination and (ii) deliver to Agent a Compliance Certificate with each of its 10-Q and 10-K filings on the date such filings are made (or, if earlier, are required by the SEC to be made) with the SEC; provided that, with respect to clause (ii) only, solely to the extent any earnings or revenue report for the same period is publicly reported or is filed with the SEC prior to the time when any 10-Q or 10-K containing the applicable quarterly or annual financial statements is filed with the SEC and to the extent the earnings or revenue set forth in any such earnings or revenue report would result in a financial covenant default under Section 5.2(xxv), the Compliance Certificate shall instead be delivered by the Loan Parties to the Agent and the Lenders on the same day as such earnings or revenue report is publicly reported or is filed with the SEC. Each of such reports in Section 5.1(h)(i) above will comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and each of such reports in Section 5.1(h)(i) above and such Compliance Certificate will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The consolidated financial statements
74
included in such reports will comply as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, will be prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied (subject, in the case of unaudited quarterly financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments and lack of footnote disclosures), and will fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the consolidated results of their operations, cash flows and changes in stockholders equity for the periods presented (subject, in the case of unaudited quarterly financial statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments and lack of footnote disclosures). The Borrower hereby agrees that, during the Reporting Period, the Borrower will send to each Secured Party copies of (A) any notices and other information made available or given to the holders of the Stock of the Borrower generally, contemporaneously with the Borrower’s making available or giving such notices and other information to such holders of Stock (it being understood and agreed that delivery will be deemed to have occurred if such notices or other information is posted to XXXXX) and (B) all other documents, reports, financial data and other information not available on XXXXX that does not contain any material nonpublic information of the Borrower, that any Secured Party may reasonably request.
(i) Each Loan Party will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, with respect to each owned, leased or controlled property, at all times and without notice, at the sole option of Agent or any Lender: (a) provide access to such property to Agent, the Lenders and their respective representatives and agents, as frequently as Agent or any Lender determines to be appropriate; and (b) permit Agent or any Lender to conduct field examinations, appraise, inspect, and make extracts and copies (or take originals if reasonably necessary) from all of such Loan Party’s and its Subsidiaries’ books and records, and evaluate and conduct appraisals and evaluations in any manner and through any medium that Agent or any Lender considers advisable, in each instance, at the Loan Parties’ sole expense. Any Lender may accompany Agent or its representatives in connection with such inspection. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Loan Parties will (and will cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to) comply with (and coordinate with Agent and the Lenders and their representatives and agents to make sure of compliance with) Section 5.1(q) in connection with any such inspection, examination, audit or analysis.
(j) Each Loan Party will ensure that all written information, exhibits and reports furnished to any Secured Party, when taken as a whole, do not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact and do not and will not omit to state any material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances in which made, and will promptly disclose, after knowledge of any defect of a material fact, untrue statement of material fact, material misstatement or error of a material fact, to Agent and the Lenders and correct any such defect, untrue statement of material fact, material misstatement or error of a material fact that has been discovered therein or in any Loan Document or in the execution, acknowledgement or recordation thereof; it being acknowledged and agreed that any projections provided to the Secured Parties are not to be viewed as facts, are not a guarantee of financial performance, and are subject to uncertainties and contingencies.
(k) Each Loan Party will enter into, and cause each depository, securities intermediary or commodities intermediary to enter into, Control Agreements with respect to each deposit, securities, commodity or similar account maintained by such Person (other than (i) deposit accounts exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes and other employee wage and benefit payments to or for the benefit of the Borrower’s employees and identified to Agent by the Borrower as such, (ii) zero balance accounts; provided that such accounts have been identified to Agent by the Borrower as such, (iii) such other xxxxx cash deposit accounts, amounts on deposit in which do not exceed $100,000 in the aggregate at any one time, (iv) escrow, trust and fiduciary accounts, (v) each account of Excluded Foreign Subsidiaries, (vi) deposit account #XXXXX0000 of TriVascular Canada LLC at Bank of Montreal; provided the aggregate amount on deposit in such deposit account(s) does not exceed 1,000,000 Canadian dollars at any time, and (vii) the Bank of America Cash Collateral Account (such accounts in clauses (i) through (vii), the
75
“Excluded Accounts”)) as of and after the Prior Agreement Date; provided that (x) the Loan Parties will have until the date that is forty-five (45) days following the closing date of any Permitted Acquisition (or such later date as may be agreed to by Agent in its sole reasonable discretion) to comply with the provisions of this Section 5.1(k) with regard to such accounts (other than Excluded Accounts) of the Loan Parties acquired in connection with such Permitted Acquisition, and (y) for deposit accounts, securities accounts and commodities accounts opened after the Agreement Date, the Loan Parties will have until the date that is thirty (30) days following the opening of any such new account (or such later date as may be agreed to by Agent in its sole reasonable discretion) to comply with this clause (k). Upon written request by the Agent, the Loan Parties will provide Agent with written evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Agent as of such Business Day or the next Business Day showing compliance with Section 5.2(xxiv).
(l) Promptly upon request by Agent, the Loan Parties will (and, subject to the limitations set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, will cause each of their Subsidiaries to) take such additional actions and execute such documents as Agent may reasonably require from time to time in order (i) to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) to subject to the Liens created by any of the Loan Documents any of the assets or properties, rights or interests covered by any of the Loan Documents, (iii) to perfect and maintain the validity, effectiveness and priority of any of the Loan Documents and the Liens intended to be created thereby, and (iv) to better assure, grant, preserve, protect and confirm to the Secured Parties the rights granted or now or hereafter intended to be granted to the Secured Parties under any Loan Document. The Loan Parties will notify Agent in writing prior to (and on) (x) the date of formation or acquisition of any Subsidiary and (y) any division or split of any Loan Party into two or more Subsidiaries, limited liability companies, other entities or other Persons. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Loan Parties will cause (y) each of their Subsidiaries (other than Excluded Subsidiaries) promptly after (but, in any event, (A) within fifteen (15) days thereof for any Subsidiary that is not an Immaterial Subsidiary and (B) within thirty (30) days thereof for any Immaterial Subsidiary) the date of the formation or acquisition thereof (and any Subsidiaries, limited liability companies, other entities or other Persons for which any Loan Party divides or splits itself into), to guaranty the Obligations and to cause each such Subsidiary (and any such Subsidiary, limited liability company, other entity or other Person for which any Loan Party divides or splits itself into) to grant to Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in, subject to the limitations set forth herein and in the Loan Documents, all of such Subsidiary’s (and, with respect to any such division or split of a Loan Party, all such Subsidiary’s limited liability company’s, other entity’s or other Person’s) assets and property (including any assets or property allocated, distributed, conveyed or otherwise transferred pursuant to any division or split of any Loan Party into any Subsidiaries, limited liability companies, other entities or other Persons for which any Loan Party divides or splits itself into) to secure such guaranty and (z) any holder (that is a Loan Party) of the Stock of such Subsidiary to provide, promptly after (but, in any event, (A) within fifteen (15) days thereof for any Subsidiary that is not an Immaterial Subsidiary and (B) within thirty (30) days thereof for any Immaterial Subsidiary) the date of (x) the formation or acquisition of such Subsidiary or (y) any division or split of any Loan Party into two or more Subsidiaries, limited liability companies, other entities or other Persons, in each case, supplements and further pledges to the Loan Documents as are necessary (or requested by Agent) to evidence Agent’s Lien in the Stock of such Subsidiary. Furthermore, the Borrower will notify Agent and the Lenders in writing promptly after (but, in any event, (A) within fifteen (15) days thereof for any Loan Party or any Subsidiary that is not an Immaterial Subsidiary and (B) within thirty (30) days thereof for any Immaterial Subsidiary) the date of the issuance by or to any Loan Party (other than by the Borrower) of any Stock of any corporation or any other Person that has “opted into” Article 8 of the UCC (in each case, other than Excluded Property) to have its Stock constitute “securities” under Article 8 of the UCC and each Loan Party will pledge, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries (other than Excluded Subsidiaries) to pledge, all of the Stock of each of its Subsidiaries (other than Excluded Subsidiaries but including any Subsidiaries, limited liability companies, other entities or other Persons for which any such Loan Party divides or splits itself into), and sixty-five percent (65%) of the outstanding voting Stock and one hundred percent (100%) of the outstanding
76
non-voting Stock of each Excluded Foreign Subsidiary and each Excluded Domestic Holdco, directly owned by a Loan Party, in each instance, to Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to secure the Obligations, promptly after formation or acquisition (or division or split) of such Subsidiary. The Loan Parties will deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Agent, appropriate resolutions, secretary certificates, certified Organizational Documents and, if reasonably requested by Agent, legal opinions relating to the matters described in this Section 5.1(l) (which opinions will be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent and, to the extent applicable, substantially similar to the opinions delivered on the Prior Agreement Date and the Agreement Date), in each instance with respect to (1) each Loan Party or Subsidiary formed or acquired (and each Subsidiary, limited liability company, other entity or other Person for which a Loan Party divides or splits itself into), (2) each Loan Party or Person (other than a Loan Party) whose Stock is being pledged, and (3) the assets and property that are allocated, distributed, conveyed or otherwise transferred pursuant to any division or split of any Loan Party into any Subsidiaries, limited liability companies, other entities or other Persons for which any Loan Party divides or splits itself into, in each case of clauses (1) through (3), after the Prior Agreement Date. In connection with each pledge of Stock, the Loan Parties will deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Agent, irrevocable proxies and Stock powers and/or assignments, as applicable, duly executed in blank.
(m) Each Loan Party will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with, and maintain its Real Estate, whether owned, leased, subleased or otherwise operated or occupied, in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws and Healthcare Laws or that is required by orders and directives of any Governmental Authority, except where the failure to comply could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
(n) Promptly upon becoming aware that any of the following events has occurred, the Borrower will provide written notice to the Agent specifying the nature of such event, what action the Loan Party or any ERISA Affiliates has taken, is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto and, when known, if applicable, any action taken or threatened by the Internal Revenue Service, the Department of Labor or the PBGC with respect thereto: (i) any ERISA Event which could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) a “prohibited transaction” as defined under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code that is not exempt under ERISA Section 408 or Section 4975 of the Code, under any applicable regulations and published interpretations thereunder or under any applicable prohibited transaction, individual or class exemption issued by the Department of Labor, with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan, which could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (iii) the imposition of any Lien on any asset of a Loan Party or a Subsidiary of a Loan Party with respect to any Title IV Plan or Multiemployer Plan.

(p) The Borrower will take all actions necessary to cause the Common Stock to remain listed on the Principal Market during the Reporting Period.

The Loan Parties will pay all fees, costs and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligations under this Section 5.1(p). The Borrower shall take all action necessary to at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance, a sufficient number of Common Shares to enable the Borrower to satisfy its obligations under the Warrants and the First Out Waterfall Notes (computed without regard to any limitations on the number of shares that may be issued on exercise or conversion thereof).
77
(q) At or prior to 7:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the first (1st) Business Day following the Agreement Date, the Borrower will file a Form 8-K with the SEC describing the terms of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and the ABL Credit Facility and the ABL Debt Documents and including as exhibits to such Form 8-K this Agreement (including the schedules, annexes and exhibit forms hereto), the forms of Notes, the form of Additional Warrant, the Registration Rights Agreement, the other Loan Documents listed on Schedule 5.1(q) and the ABL Credit Facility and the ABL Debt Documents (such Form 8-K, the “Announcing Form 8-K”). Subject to the foregoing, no Loan Party will issue any press releases or any other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated by any Loan Document or disclosing the name of any Secured Party; provided, however, that the Borrower will be entitled, without the prior approval of any Secured Party, to make any press release or other public disclosure with respect to such transactions (i) in substantial conformity with the Announcing Form 8-K and contemporaneously therewith and (ii) as is required by Applicable Law and regulations (provided that each Secured Party will be consulted by the Borrower in connection with any such press release or other public disclosure prior to its release and will be provided with a copy thereof by the borrower other than filings required by the Exchange Act to be made with the SEC, which Borrower may make without such consultation or notice). From and after the Borrower’s filing of the Announcing Form 8-K, no Secured Party shall be in possession of any material nonpublic information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, representatives or agents. Without limiting the foregoing, the Loan Parties represent and warrant that no Loan Document or other agreement, instrument, certificate, information or other document provided by any Loan Party or any of its Related Parties to any Secured Party on or about the Agreement Date that is not filed as an exhibit to the Announcing Form 8-K constitutes, or contains, reflects or references any information that constitutes, material nonpublic information with respect to the Borrower or any of its Subidiaries or Affiliates (except to the extent the same information is expressly set forth in the Announcing Form 8-K or an exhibit thereto). Notwithstanding any other requirement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Loan Party will not, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and its and each of their respective officers, directors, employees. Attorneys, representatives and agents to not, provide any Secured Party with any material nonpublic information regarding the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates from and after the filing of the Announcing Form 8-K with the SEC without the express prior written consent of such Secured Party. Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that no Secured Party (nor any of such Secured Party’s Affiliates) shall have any duty of trust or confidence with respect to, or any obligation not to trade in any securities on the basis of, any material nonpublic information regarding the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (A) provided by, or on behalf of, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, representatives or agents, in breach or violation of any of the representations, covenants, provisions or agreements set forth in this Section 5.1(q) or (B) otherwise possessed (or continued to be possessed) by any Secured Party (or any Affiliate thereof) as a result of any breach or violation of any representation, covenant, provision or agreement set forth in this Section 5.1(q). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that any Loan Party believes that a notice or communication to any Secured Party contains material, nonpublic information relating to any Loan Party, any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or any of their respective property or Stock, the Borrower will so indicate to the Secured Parties contemporaneously with delivery of such notice or communication, and such indication shall provide the Secured Parties the means to refuse to receive such notice or communication; and in the absence of any such indication, the holders of the Securities shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating to such notice or communication do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to any Loan Party, any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or any of their respective property or Stock. Upon receipt or delivery by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries of any notice in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, unless the Borrower has in good faith determined that the matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or their respective property or Stock, the Loan Parties will, within one Business Day after any such receipt or delivery publicly disclose such material, nonpublic information. In the event of a breach of
78
any of the foregoing covenants by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any of its or their respective officers, directors (or equivalent persons), employees, attorneys, representatives or agents, in addition to any other remedies provided in the Loan Documents or otherwise available at law or in equity, the Secured Parties shall have the right to make a public disclosure in the form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of the applicable material nonpublic information regarding the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates without the prior approval by any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any of its or their respective officers, directors (or equivalent persons), employees, attorneys, representatives or agents, and no Secured Party shall have any liability to any Loan Party, any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or any of its or their respective officers, directors (or equivalent persons), employees, equityholders, attorneys, representatives or agents for any such disclosure.
(r) The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Securities may be pledged by a holder thereof in connection with a bona fide margin agreement or other loan, financing or Indebtedness secured by the Securities. The pledge of Securities shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Securities under the Loan Documents, and no such holder effecting any such pledge of Securities shall be required to provide any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to any Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document. The Borrower hereby agrees to execute and deliver such documentation as a pledgee of the Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge of the Securities to such pledgee by a holder of Securities.
(s) During the Reporting Period, except as otherwise provided in the Loan Documents, the Borrower will not in any manner issue or sell any Options or Convertible Securities that are convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock at a price that varies or may vary with the market price of the Common Stock, including by way of one or more resets to a fixed price or increases in the number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable, or at a price that upon the passage of time or the occurrence of certain events automatically is reduced or is adjusted or at the option of any Person may be reduced or adjusted, whether or not based on a formulation of the then current market price of the Common Stock (other than proportional adjustments as a result of subdivisions or combinations of the Common Stock in the form of stock splits, stock dividends, reverse stock splits, combinations or recapitalizations). For the avoidance of doubt, this clause (s) does not prohibit any convertible notes contemplated under clause (k) of the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness” with a fixed conversion rate subject to anti-dilution adjustments or other provisions related to the conversion price and/or conversion rate that are broadly similar to the analogous provisions in the 2.25% Convertible Note Documents or the 3.25% Convertible Note Documents or any Permitted 3.25% Convertible Note Refinancing permitted hereunder.
(t) Within five Business Days after the filing (or, to the extent earlier, the date filing is required by the SEC) of its 10-K or 10-Q with the SEC (and by each date that the financial statements are required to be delivered in Section 5.1(aa)), as the case may be, the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries will deliver to Agent an updated Perfection Certificate. Upon the reasonable request of any Secured Party, the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries will promptly deliver to such Secured Party such additional business, financial, corporate affairs, perfection certificates, items or documents related to creation, perfection or priority of Agent’s Liens in the Collateral and other information as any Secured Party may from time to time reasonably request.
(u) Except as could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Borrower will, and will cause each Loan Party to, (i) obtain all Regulatory Required Permits necessary for compliance in all respects with Applicable Laws with respect to the design, testing, manufacturing, developing, processing, assembly, packaging, labeling, distribution, commercialization, import, export, selling or marketing of Products, and (ii) maintain and comply fully and completely in all respects with all such Regulatory Required Permits.
79
(v) Each Loan Party will comply, and cause each Subsidiary to comply, with the requirements of all Applicable Laws and Material Contracts, except to the extent that failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to (a) individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, or (b) result in any Lien upon either (i) a material portion of the assets of any such Person in favor of any Governmental Authority, or (ii) any Collateral (other than Permitted Liens).
(w) The Borrower will, within two Business Days after delivery by a Loan Party or receipt or knowledge thereof, provide written notice to Agent of any default or event of default under any of the ABL Debt Documents, any of the Convertible Note Documents or any of the Permitted Japan Lifeline Unsecured Debt Documents, and of any amendments, restatements, supplements, waivers or other modifications to (or any consents to any events or actions under) any of the ABL Debt Documents, any of the Convertible Note Documents or any of the Permitted Japan Lifeline Unsecured Debt Documents or any prepayment of any of the Indebtedness thereunder.
(x) The Loan Parties will keep its Inventory and Equipment (other than Inventory or Equipment that is in-transit, Trunk Inventory or subject to consignment) only at the locations identified on Schedule 3.1(hh) and their chief executive offices only at the locations identified on Schedule 3.1(gg).
(y) Each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries will comply with (A) in all respects with all Healthcare Laws and their implementation by any applicable Governmental Authority, except as could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (B) (1) in all respects with all lawful requests of any Governmental Authority applicable to its Products, except as could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (2) in all material respect with requests of any Governmental Authority applicable to its Products that is required by Applicable Law (or court order or proceeding) to be complied with. Except as could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, all Products developed, manufactured, tested, distributed, promoted or marketed by or on behalf of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries that are subject to the jurisdiction of the FDA or comparable Governmental Authority shall be (i) developed, tested, manufactured, distributed, promoted and marketed in compliance with the Healthcare Laws and each other Applicable Law, including Healthcare Laws and other Applicable Laws governing or relating to product approval or premarket notification, good manufacturing practices, promoting, labeling, advertising, record-keeping, and adverse event reporting, and (ii) tested, investigated, distributed, labeled, promoted, marketed, and sold in compliance with Healthcare Laws and all other Applicable Laws.
(z) Notwithstanding the conditions precedent set forth in Article 4 or any other provision set forth herein to the contrary above, the Loan Parties have informed the Agent that certain of such items required to be delivered to the Agent and/or the Lenders or otherwise satisfied as conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement will not be delivered to Agent and the Lenders as of the Agreement Date. Therefore, with respect to the items set forth in this Section 5.1(z) below (collectively, the “Outstanding Items”), the Loan Parties will, and the Loan Parties will cause their Subsidiaries to, deliver (or otherwise satisfy) each Outstanding Item to the satisfaction of the Agent in the form and manner set forth below for such Outstanding Item within twenty (20) days after the Agreement Date (or within such longer time or different form or manner as the Agent may agree in its sole discretion):

The Loan Parties will not, and will not permit any of their Subsidiaries to consummate any Change of Control (other than a Permitted Successor Transaction) without complying in all respects with the applicable provisions of this Section 5.3(a).

(c) No consideration shall be offered or paid (in any form, whether cash, Stock, other property or otherwise) to any Secured Party to amend, restate, supplement, modify or change or consent to a waiver of (or a diversion from) any provision of any of the Loan Documents unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the Lenders under the Loan Documents. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Lender and is not intended for the Borrower or any other Loan Party to treat the Lenders as a class and shall not be construed in any way as the Lenders acting in concert or otherwise as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of securities or Stock or otherwise.
Section 6.7 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any law, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The Parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.
Section 6.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, and by each Party on separate counterparts, each of which and any photocopies, facsimile copies and other electronic methods of transmission thereof shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
Section 6.9 Survival; Releases of Guarantees and Liens.
(a) In addition to Section 3.2, this Agreement and all agreements, representations and warranties and covenants made in the Loan Documents, and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant thereto or in connection therewith shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other Parties and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the making of the Loan hereunder or thereunder, in each case until termination of such provision in accordance with this Section 6.9, regardless of any investigation made by any such other Party or on its behalf. Agent and the Lenders shall not be deemed to have waived, by reason of making the Loan, any Event of Default that may arise by reason of such representation or warranty proving to have been false or misleading, notwithstanding that the Lenders may have had notice or knowledge of any such Event of Default or may have had notice or knowledge that such representation or warranty was false or misleading at the time the applicable Disbursement was made.
(b) All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof (and, with respect to Section 3.1(g)(i)(B), the first two sentences of Section 3.1(i), Section 3.1 (y), Section 3.1 (z)(A) and (C), Section 3.1(ee), the first sentence of Section 3.1(mm), Section 3.1(nn), Section 3.1(oo), Section 3.1(rr), Section 3.1(ss) and Section 3.1 (tt), shall continue to be made in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, including at all times after the execution and delivery hereof and thereof). Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Secured Parties, regardless of any investigation made by the Secured Parties or on their behalf and notwithstanding that any Secured Party may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Loan, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as either (i) any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain outstanding, unpaid or unsatisfied or (ii) the Maturity Date has not occurred. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents, the obligations of the Loan Parties under Section 2.5 and the obligations of the Loan Parties and the Lenders under this Article 6 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans and the other Obligations, the expiration or termination of the Warrants or the termination of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any provision hereof or thereof. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Documents, (a) the
100
making of the representations and warranties herein or in any other Loan Document that relate to the Warrants or any securities laws shall survive the payment in full of the Loans and any other Obligations until such time that Warrants are fully and completely paid, performed, extinguished and terminated in accordance with their terms, (b) all rights set forth in the Warrants and the Registration Rights Agreement and all transactions contemplated thereby (other than this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to provisions that are not mentioned herein or therein to survive the payment in full of the Loans) shall continue to, and at all times, exist until (i) with respect to the Warrants, such Warrants are fully and completely paid, performed, extinguished and terminated in accordance with their terms and (ii) with respect to the Registration Rights Agreement, such Registration Rights Agreement is fully and completely terminated in accordance with its terms, (c) Sections 5.1(h), (p), (s) and (aa) and Section 5.2(xvii) will survive until the end of the Reporting Period, but all other affirmative and negative covenants, events of default, fees, penalties and other provisions not expressly surviving pursuant to this Section 6.9 shall terminate upon the payment in full of the Obligations (not including unasserted contingent indemnification obligations or any Obligations in respect of the Warrants, the Registration Rights Agreement or any Stock) and (d) all Liens granted on the Collateral under any Loan Document shall remain in effect and shall continue to secure the Obligations under the Loan Documents (x) until all of the Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations and other than any Obligations under any Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement) have been paid in full in cash in accordance with such Loan Documents and (y) other than Liens on any Collateral disposed of in a Permitted Disposition or as otherwise agreed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such greater percentage of Lenders required pursuant to Section 6.6) (but such release shall only be for the Liens on such Collateral so disposed in a Permitted Disposition or as may be agreed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such greater percentage of Lenders required pursuant to Section 6.6)).
(c) Upon payment in full of all Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations and other than any Obligations in connection with any Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement) in cash in accordance with the Loan Documents, subject to the second sentence of Section 6.22, all Collateral shall be automatically released from the Liens created by the Security Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise and all rights of the Secured Parties in the Collateral shall automatically terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or any additional performance by any Person.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Agent is hereby unconditionally authorized and instructed by each Secured Party (without requirement of notice to or consent of any Secured Party) to take any action to release or terminate any Lien granted under the Loan Documents to secure the Obligations in the Collateral upon (i) payment in full of all Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations and other than the Obligations under any Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement) in cash in accordance with the Loan Documents, (ii) a written agreement by the requisite number of Lenders required by Section 6.6 and (iii) a Permitted Disposition (but solely in the Collateral so disposed of in a Permitted Disposition and not in any other property or assets).
(e) In each case in accordance with this Section 6.9 whereby a Lien on all or a portion of the Collateral is released, the Agent will (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Agent to), at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of (i) all Collateral from the Liens granted under the Loan Documents upon payment in full of all Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations and other than the Obligations under any Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement) in cash in accordance with the Loan Documents, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 6.9, (ii) Collateral permitted to be sold pursuant to clause (d)(ii) of
101
this Section 6.9 (but solely in such Collateral) and (iii) the Liens on that Collateral sold pursuant to a Permitted Disposition (but solely in such Collateral sold pursuant to such Permitted Disposition).
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents and for the avoidance of doubt, the holders of the Warrants and parties to the Registration Rights Agreement shall be entitled to exercise all rights and remedies available to them under law and at equity and under the Warrants and the Registration Rights Agreement for any breaches of provisions that survive the payment in full of the Obligations (other than the payment in full of unasserted contingent indemnification obligations and other than Obligations under any Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement).
Section 6.10 No Waiver. Neither the failure of, nor any delay on the part of, any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder, or under any agreement, document or instrument mentioned herein or under any other Loan Document, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder, under any other Loan Document or under any other agreement, document or instrument mentioned herein, preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege; nor shall any waiver of any right, power, privilege or default hereunder, under any other Loan Document or under any agreement, document or instrument mentioned herein, constitute a waiver of any other right, power, privilege or default or constitute a waiver of any default of the same or of any other term or provision. No course of dealing and no delay in exercising, or omission to exercise, any right, power or remedy accruing to Agent or the Lenders upon any breach, Default or Event of Default under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof or an acquiescence therein; nor shall the action of Agent or the Lenders in respect of any such breach, Default or Event of Default or any acquiescence by it therein, affect or impair any right, power or remedy of Agent or the Lenders in respect of any other breach, Default or any Event of Default. All rights and remedies herein or in the other Loan Documents provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies otherwise provided by (or available at) law or in equity.
Section 6.11 Indemnity.
(a) The Loan Parties shall, at all times, indemnify and hold harmless (the “Indemnity”) the Secured Parties and each of their respective directors, partners, officers, employees, agents, counsel and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Person”) in connection with any losses, claims (including the reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in defending against such claims), damages, liabilities, penalties or other expenses arising out of, or relating to, the Loan Documents or the Prior Loan Documents, the extension of credit hereunder or the Loan or the other Obligations or the use or intended use of the Loan or the other Obligations, which an Indemnified Person may incur or to which an Indemnified Person may become subject (each, a “Loss”). The Indemnity shall not apply to the extent that a court or arbitral tribunal of competent jurisdiction issues a final non-appealable judgment that such Loss of an Indemnified Person resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person. The Indemnity is independent of and in addition to any other agreement of any Party under any Loan Document to pay any amount to the Secured Parties, and any exclusion of any obligation to pay any amount under this Section 6.11(a) shall not affect the requirement to pay such amount under any other section hereof or under any other agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6.11 shall not apply to Taxes other than Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.
(b) An Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own legal counsel with the fees, costs and expenses of such legal counsel and of such Indemnified Person to be paid by the indemnifying Person. The indemnification required by this Section 6.11 shall be made and paid by such indemnifying Person within ten (10) Business Days of written demand by such Indemnified Person.
102
(c) No settlement of any Loss shall be entered into by such indemnifying Person without the written consent of the applicable Indemnified Person.
(d) No Loan Party shall, nor shall it permit any of its Subsidiaries, assert, and each Loan Party on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, hereby waives, any claim, loss or amount against any Indemnified Person with respect to any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any undertaking or transaction contemplated hereby or thereby. No Indemnified Person shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.
Section 6.12 No Usury. The Loan Documents are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Agent or the Lenders for the Loan or the other Obligations exceed the maximum amount permissible under Applicable Law. If from any circumstance whatsoever fulfillment of any provision hereof or any other Loan Document, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity, and if from any such circumstance Agent or the Lenders shall ever receive anything which might be deemed interest under Applicable Law, that would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount that would be deemed excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing on account of the Loan or the other Obligations, or if such deemed excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal of the Loan or the other Obligations, such deemed excess shall be refunded to the Borrower. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders for the Loan or the other Obligations shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be deemed to be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of the Loan and the other Obligations until payment in full so that the deemed rate of interest on account of the Loan and the other Obligations is uniform throughout the term thereof. The terms and provisions of this Section shall control and supersede every other provision of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents.
Section 6.13 Specific Performance. The Loan Parties agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary relief, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any provision of the Loan Documents is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached, including if the Loan Parties hereto fail to take any action required of them hereunder or thereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents. In light of the foregoing, the Loan Parties hereby agree that, until all Obligations have been paid in full in accordance with the Loan Documents, (a) the Secured Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of the Loan Documents and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof and thereof in the courts described in Section 6.4 without proof of damages or otherwise and (b) the right of specific performance and other equitable relief is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and without that right, the Secured Parties would not have entered into the Loan Documents or have provided Loans or Disbursements hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The Loan Parties hereby agree not to assert (or have any of their Subsidiaries or their attorneys, agents or representatives assert or any other Person on their behalf to assert) that a remedy of specific performance or other equitable relief is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Applicable Law or inequitable for any reason, and not to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy or that the parties otherwise have an adequate remedy at law. The Loan Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that any Secured Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of, or defaults under, the Loan Documents, to prevent any Default or Event of Default and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents in accordance with this Section 6.13 shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such injunction or other order or proceeding. The remedies
103
available to the Secured Parties pursuant to this Section 6.13 shall be in addition to any other remedy which may be available under the Loan Documents, at law, in equity or otherwise.
Section 6.14 Further Assurances. From time to time, the Loan Parties shall perform any and all acts and execute and deliver to Agent and the Lenders such additional documents, agreements and instruments as may be reasonably requested by Agent or any of the Lenders to carry out the purposes of any Loan Document or to preserve and protect Agent’s or the Lenders’ rights as contemplated therein.
Section 6.15 Agent.
(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Deerfield Private Design Fund IV, L.P. (together with any successor Agent appointed by Deerfield Private Design Fund IV, L.P. or any successor Agent that was appointed by the Lenders or any prior Agent) as Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes Agent to (i) execute and deliver the Loan Documents and accept delivery thereof on its behalf from any Loan Party, (ii) take such other actions on its behalf and to exercise all rights, powers and remedies and perform the duties as are expressly delegated to Agent under the Loan Documents and (iii) exercise such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in other Loan Documents with reference to Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.
(b) Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney in fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
(c) None of Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees, attorneys, advisors, representatives or agents shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the Transactions or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (except to the extent resulting from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Loan Party or Affiliate of any Loan Party, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest therein), or for any failure of any Loan Party or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations (including the Obligations) hereunder or thereunder. Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party or any Loan Party’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates.
104
(d) Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, electronic mail message, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, shall receive confirmation from the Lenders of their obligation to indemnify Agent against any and all liabilities and expenses (including any fees and expenses of counsel to Agent) which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon each Lender.
(e) Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default or Default, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or any Loan Party referring to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, describing such Event of Default or Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” Agent shall take such action with respect to such Event of Default or Default as may be requested by the Lenders; provided that unless and until the Agent has received any such request, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default or Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of itself and the Lenders.
(f) Each Lender acknowledges that Agent has not made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Agent hereafter taken, including any consent and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the Loan Parties or any of their Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by Agent to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent has disclosed material information in its possession. Each Lender represents to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and the other Loan Parties, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to extend credit to Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary or appropriate to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and the other Loan Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by Agent, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial or other condition or creditworthiness of Borrower or any other Loan Party which may come into the possession of Agent.
(g) Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Lender shall indemnify upon demand Agent and its directors, officers, partners, employees, attorneys, advisors, representatives and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of any Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), according to its applicable Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all losses, claims (including the reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in defending against such claims), damages, liabilities, penalties or other expenses arising out of, or relating to, any of Agent’s duties, responsibilities or actions set forth in or that taken pursuant to the Loan Documents; provided that no
105
Lender shall be liable for any payment to any such Person of any portion of the foregoing to the extent determined by a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the applicable Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No action taken in accordance with the directions of the Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 6.15(g). Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out of pocket expenses incurred by Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document contemplated by or referred to herein or therein, to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such fees, costs and expenses by or on behalf of the Loan Parties. The undertaking in this Section 6.15(g) shall survive repayment of the Loans and the other Obligations, any foreclosure under, or modification, release or discharge of, any or all of the Loan Documents, termination of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and the resignation or replacement of Agent.
(h) Agent may resign as Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Lenders. If Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor Agent for such successor Agent and the Lenders. If no successor Agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Agent, Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders, a successor Agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor Agent, and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 6.15 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If no successor Agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above.
(i) Agent hereby appoints each other Lender and other Secured Party as its agent (and each Lender and other Secured Party hereby accepts such appointment) for the purpose of perfecting Agent’s Liens in assets which, in accordance with Article 8 or Article 9, as applicable, of the UCC can be perfected by possession or control. Should any Lender or other Secured Party obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender or other Secured Party shall notify Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Agent’s request therefor shall deliver possession or control of such Collateral to Agent or in accordance with Agent’s instructions.
Section 6.16 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to the USA Patriot Act (and Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender)) hereby notifies the Loan Parties that, pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name, address and tax identification numbers of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or Agent to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the USA Patriot Act. In addition, if Agent or any other Secured Party is required by law or regulation or internal policies to do so, it shall have the right to periodically conduct (a) USA Patriot Act searches, OFAC/PEP searches, and customary individual background checks for the Loan Parties and (b) OFAC/PEP searches and customary individual background checks for the Loan Parties’ senior management and key principals, and the Loan Parties agree to cooperate in respect of the conduct of such searches and further agree that the reasonable costs and charges for such searches shall paid for, and reimbursed by, the Loan Parties and be for the account of the Loan Parties. This notice is given in accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act and is effective for Agent and the Lenders.
106
Section 6.17 Placement Agent. The Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall be solely responsible for the payment of any fees, costs, expenses and commissions of any placement agent, broker or financial adviser relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents. The Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall pay, and hold each of the Secured Parties harmless against, any liability, loss or expense (including attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) arising in connection with any claim for any such payment.
Section 6.18 No Fiduciary Relationship. No Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship or duty to any Loan Party arising out of or in connection with, and there is no agency, tenancy or joint venture relationship between the Secured Parties and the Loan Parties by virtue of, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein.
Section 6.19 Joint and Several. The obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are joint and several. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, reference is hereby made to Sections 2, 4 and 8.3 of the Security Agreement, to which the obligations of the Loan Parties are subject.
Section 6.20 No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Loan Parties and the Secured Parties party hereto (and the indemnitees mentioned herein), and their successors and permitted assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. No Secured Party shall have any obligation to any Person not a party to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.
Section 6.21 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by each of the Loan Parties party hereto, each Lender party hereto and Agent and such executed counterparts have been delivered to Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Thereafter, it shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, each Loan Party hereto and each Secured Party thereto and the indemnitees mentioned herein and, in each case, their respective successors and permitted assigns.
Section 6.22 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. No Secured Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any property in favor of any Loan Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any Obligation. To the extent that any Secured Party receives a payment from the Borrower, from any other Loan Party, from the proceeds of the Collateral, from the exercise of its rights of setoff, any enforcement action or otherwise, and such payment is subsequently, in whole or in part, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not occurred.
Section 6.23 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Secured Party, any right, remedy, power or privilege under any Loan Document, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. No course of dealing between any Loan Party, any Affiliate of any Loan Party or any Secured Party shall be effective to amend, modify or discharge any provision of any of the Loan Documents.
Section 6.24 Right of Setoff. Each Secured Party and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized, without notice or demand (each of which is hereby waived by each Loan Party), at any time and from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default and to the fullest extent permitted by
107
Applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (whether general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness, claims or other obligations at any time owing by any Secured Party or any of its Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party against any Obligation of any Loan Party now or hereafter existing, whether or not any demand was made under any Loan Document with respect to such Obligation and even though such Obligation may be unmatured. No Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff without the prior consent of Agent. Each Secured Party agrees promptly to notify Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Secured Party or its Affiliates. The rights under this Section 6.24 are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that any Secured Party or any of its Affiliates may have.
Section 6.25 Independent Nature of Secured Parties. The obligations of each Secured Party under the Loan Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Secured Party, and no Secured Party shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Secured Party under the Loan Documents. Each Secured Party shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants under the Loan Documents. The decision of each Lender to acquire the Securities pursuant to the Loan Documents has been made by such Lender independently of any other Lender and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which may have been made or given by any other Secured Party or by any agent, attorney, advisor, representative or employee of any other Secured Party, and no Secured Party or any of its agents, attorneys, advisors, representatives or employees shall have any liability to any other Secured Party (or any other Person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained in the Loan Documents, and no action taken by any Secured Party pursuant hereto or thereto (including a Lender’s acquisition of Obligations, Notes or Warrants at the same time as any other Secured Party), shall be deemed to constitute the Secured Parties as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Secured Parties are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such Obligations or the transactions contemplated by any of the Loan Documents. Each Secured Party shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including the rights arising out of the Loan Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Secured Party to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
Section 6.26 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender, directly or through any of its Affiliates, obtains any payment of any Obligation of any Loan Party (whether voluntary, involuntary or through the exercise of any right of setoff or the receipt of any Collateral or “proceeds” (as defined under the applicable UCC) of Collateral) (and other than pursuant to Section 6.5) and such payment exceeds the amount such Lender would have been entitled to receive if all payments had gone to, and been distributed in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, such Lender shall purchase for cash from other Lenders such participations in their Obligations as necessary for such Lender to share such excess payment with such Lenders to ensure such payment is applied as though it had been applied in accordance with this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) if such payment is rescinded or otherwise recovered from such Lender in whole or in part, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price therefor shall be returned to such Lender without interest and (ii) such Lender shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, be able to exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the applicable Loan Party in the amount of such participation.
Section 6.27 Confidentiality.
(a) Each of the Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its Affiliates and to its
108
Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (ii) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority), (iii) to the extent required by Applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any Secured Party or any other party hereto, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or (B) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Loan Parties and their obligations, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or payments hereunder or thereunder, (vii) on a confidential basis to (A) any rating agency in connection with rating any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided hereunder or (B) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the credit facilities provided hereunder, (viii) with the consent of any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates, (ix) to the extent such Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 6.27(a) or (B) becomes available to any Secured Party or any of its Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower, or (x) as provided in Section 5.1(q). In addition, the Secured Parties may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Secured Parties in connection with the administration of the Loans and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
(b) For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from a Loan Party relating to the Loan Parties or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by such Loan Party or any Subsidiary; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries after the Prior Agreement Date, such Information is both (y) clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential and (z) provided to the Secured Parties at a time when the Secured Parties have requested in writing to receive material nonpublic information. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 6.27 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
(c) The Loan Parties and their Affiliates agree that they will not issue any press release announcing the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of the Agent, unless (and only to the extent that) the Loan Parties or such Affiliate is required to do so under Applicable Law and, in any event the Loan Parties and their Affiliates will provide the Agent with a copy of, and consult with the Agent before issuing, any such press release or other public disclosure with respect to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby and will consider in good faith any comments of the Agent.
Section 6.28 Intercreditor Agreement.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document: (i) the Liens granted to the Agent in favor of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Loan Documents and the exercise of any right related to any Collateral shall be subject, in each case, to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) in the event of any conflict between the express terms and provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, on the one hand, and of the Intercreditor Agreement, on the
109

Each of the Loan Parties (a) consent to the amendment and restatement of the Prior Facility Agreement by this Agreement (and any other “Loan Documents” (as defined in the Prior Facility Agreement, the “Prior Loan Documents”) that are being amended and restated); (b) acknowledges and agrees that (i) there are “Obligations” (as defined in the Prior Facility Agreement) owing to the Secured Parties that will continue to be owed and owing to the Secured Parties as Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the obligations under the Initial Warrants and the Registration Rights Agreement that existed immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement, and (ii) the prior grant or grants of Liens or security interests in favor of any of the Agent or the other Secured Parties in such Loan Parties’ properties and assets, under each Prior Loan Document continue to exist and will continue to exist under the Loan Documents, and each Loan Document to which it is a party shall be in respect of the Obligations of each of the Loan Parties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that such security interests or Liens shall be as modified (if applicable) pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents applicable thereto which are entered into on the Agreement Date, if any; (c) reaffirms (i) all of the Obligations (as defined in the Prior Facility Agreement) owing to the Secured Parties, and (ii) all prior or concurrent grants of Liens or security interests in favor of any of the Agent or the Secured Parties under each Prior Loan Document and each Loan Document; provided, however, that such Liens or security interests shall be as modified (if applicable) pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents applicable thereto which are entered into on the Agreement Date, if any; and (d) agrees that, except as expressly amended hereby or unless being amended and restated concurrently herewith, each of the Prior Loan Documents to which it is a party is and shall remain in full force and effect. Each of the Loan Parties hereby confirms and agrees that all outstanding principal, interest and fees (including such accrued and unpaid principal, interest, and fees set forth in the immediately preceding sentence) and other “Obligations” (as defined in the Priority Facility Agreement) under the Prior Facility Agreement and the other Prior Loan Documents immediately prior to the Agreement Date shall, from and after the Agreement Date, be, without duplication, Obligations owing and payable pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as in effect from time to time, shall accrue interest thereon as specified in this Agreement, and shall be secured by the Loan Documents. Although each of the Loan Parties has been informed of the matters set forth herein and has acknowledged and agreed to the same, it understands that no Secured Party shall have any obligation to inform it of such matters in the future or to seek its acknowledgement or agreement to future amendments, restatements, supplements or other modifications, and nothing herein shall create such a duty.
Section 6.30 No Novation. This Agreement does not extinguish the obligations for the payment of money outstanding under the Prior Facility Agreement or the other Prior Loan Documents or discharge or release the obligations or the Liens or priority of any pledge, security agreement or any other security therefor or any of the obligations under the Prior Loan Documents (including the Initial Warrants
110
and the Registration Rights Agreement). Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a substitution or novation of the obligations outstanding under the Prior Facility Agreement, the other Prior Loan Documents or agreements, instruments or documents securing the same, which shall remain in full force and effect, except as modified hereby or by agreements, instruments or documents executed concurrently herewith. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement shall be construed as a release or other discharge of any Loan Party from any of its obligations or liabilities under the Prior Facility Agreement and the other Prior Loan Documents or any of the security agreements, pledge agreements, guaranties or other loan documents executed in connection therewith. Each of Loan Parties hereby (a) confirms and agrees that each Prior Loan Document and each Initial Warrant to which it is a party that is not being amended and restated concurrently herewith is, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects except that on and after the Agreement Date, all references in any such Prior Loan Document to (i) “the Facility Agreement,” “thereto,” “thereof,” “thereunder” or words of like import referring to the Prior Facility Agreement shall mean the Prior Facility Agreement as amended and restated by this Agreement or (ii) any other Prior Loan Document being amended and restated, “thereto,”, thereof,” thereunder,” or words of like import referring to such Prior Loan Document shall mean such Prior Loan Document as amended and restated by the corresponding Loan Document; and (b) confirms and agrees that to the extent that any such Prior Loan Document purports to assign or pledge to any of the Agent or the other Secured Parties or to grant to any of the Agent or the other Secured Parties a security interest in or Lien on, any collateral as security for the obligations of any Loan Party, as the case may be, from time to time existing in respect of the Prior Facility Agreement or the other Prior Loan Documents, such pledge or assignment or grant of the security interest or Lien is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects with respect to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Section 6.31 Survival of Any Existing Unmatured Events of Default and Events of Default.

2. General. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Exhibit, the Borrower’s valid exercise of its share issuance rights under this Exhibit and subsequent fulfillment of its obligations hereunder (including delivery of all of the requisite Daily Issuance Shares and payment of the Share Issuance Amount, if any) shall be deemed to satisfy its obligation to pay interest on the applicable Interest Payment Date for which such share issuance right is being exercised.
3. Exercise of Share Issuance Rights. On any date that is not more than fifteen (15) and not less than ten (10) Trading Days prior to any Interest Payment Date, the Borrower may deliver to each of the Lenders notice by electronic mail or facsimile (a “Share Issuance Notice”) of its intention to issue Freely Tradeable Shares pursuant to the provisions of this Exhibit in order to satisfy interest due on such Interest Payment Date under Section 2.6 of the Agreement by delivering such Freely Tradeable Shares to the Lenders; provided, however, that the Borrower may not deliver a Share Issuance Notice (a) during the occurrence of a Delisting Event, (b) at any time following such time as the Borrower has delivered (or is obligated to deliver) a Major Transaction Notice in respect of a Major Transaction, (c) at any time following the occurrence, and during the continuance, of an Event of Default or a Default, (d) from and after a Withholding Date, (e) if, as of the close of trading on the immediately preceding Trading Day, the Market Capitalization is less than $200,000,000, (f) if the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to prior Share Issuance Notices has equaled the Share Issuance Limit, (g) unless all material information regarding the Borrower (including any material information that
may be included in, or reflected by, the Share Issuance Notice, but excluding any material information relating to the Borrower’s operating results for the fiscal quarter in which the Share Issuance Notice is delivered other than operating results that would trigger non-compliance with a covenant hereunder or in the ABL Credit Facility) has been publicly disclosed in a report filed pursuant to the Exchange Act or has been otherwise publicly disclosed in a manner calculated to reach the securities marketplace through one of the Borrower’s recognized channels of distribution, (h) unless all shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such Share Issuance Notice are eligible for resale by the Lenders without limitation or restriction, including any volume limitations, under state or Federal securities laws pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, (i) unless the Borrower is in compliance with the “current public information” requirement of Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act, (j) if the transfer agent for the Common Stock is not participating in DTC’s Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, (k) if any Lender, after consultation with counsel of its choosing, advises the Borrower that the receipt or resale of Common Stock issued or issuable hereunder would result in such Lender being deemed an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(11) under the Securities Act or (1) if the arithmetic average of the Volume Weighted Average Prices on each of the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding such date is less than $2.00 (collectively, the “Share Issuance Conditions”). Subject to such provisions, a Share Issuance Notice shall be irrevocable, shall specify the aggregate amount of interest subject to such Share Issuance Notice, in each case, broken out by the amount due each Lender (such amount, a “Share Issuance Amount”). If the Lenders do not confirm receipt of the Share Issuance Notice within three (3) Trading Days of the delivery thereof, the Borrower shall thereafter use its reasonable best efforts to confirm (by email, telephonically or otherwise) such receipt, and in no event shall the Issuance Period commence unless and until the Lenders have confirmed such receipt. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower may exercise its right under this Exhibit 2.6, and may deliver a Share Issuance Notice, only one time with respect to the interest due and payable on any Interest Payment Date.
4. Share Issuance. On the applicable Interest Payment Date, by no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, the Borrower shall deliver to each Lender its First Out Waterfall Pro Rata Share of the applicable Interest Payment Shares by causing the transfer agent for the Common Stock to electronically transmit such Interest Payment Shares to such Lender by crediting to the account of such Lender’s prime broker (as specified by such Lender no later than one Trading Day prior to the Interest Payment Date) with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system its First Out Waterfall Pro Rata Share of such Interest Payment Shares determined pursuant to Section 6 of this Exhibit. Concurrently with the valid delivery of the related Interest Payment Shares on the Interest Payment Date, an amount (the “Credit Amount”) of interest payable on such Interest Payment Date equal to the product of (x) the number of Interest Payment Shares issued and delivered to a Lender on such date multiplied by (y) the applicable Interest Payment Share Price, shall be deemed to have been satisfied.
All shares of Common Stock issued and delivered pursuant to this Section 4 shall be Freely Tradeable Shares (and for the avoidance of doubt, only Freely Tradeable Shares shall be deemed to constitute Interest Payment Shares and be applied to any Credit Amount). In connection with the issuance and delivery of any shares of Common Stock to the Lenders pursuant to this Section 4, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lenders, by no later than the last Business Day prior to the Interest Payment Date for which a Share Issuance Notice has been delivered, an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Lenders, substantially in the form attached as Annex 1 to this Exhibit, relating to all shares of Common Stock to be issued and delivered to the Lenders (as Freely Tradeable Shares) on the Interest Payment Date. For purposes of determining whether any shares of Common Stock are Freely Tradeable Shares, each Lender represents (and counsel is entitled to rely on the representation for purposes of issuing the opinion contemplated above), unless it
notifies Borrower otherwise at least five (5) days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date, that it will not be an Affiliate of the Borrower on the Interest Payment Date and will not have been an Affiliate of the Borrower within the three-month period immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date.
5. Limitations on Share Issuances. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Borrower shall not issue to any Lender, and no Lender may acquire, a number of shares of Common Stock hereunder to the extent that, upon such issuance, the number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Lender and its Affiliates and any other persons or entities whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with such Lender’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including shares held by any “group” of which the Lender is a member, but excluding shares beneficially owned by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities (including the Warrants) that have limitations on the right to convert, exercise or acquire similar to the limitation set forth herein), would exceed 4.985% of the total number of shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding (the “4.985% Cap”). For purposes hereof, “group” has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable regulations of the SEC, and the percentage held by each Lender shall be determined in a manner consistent with the provisions of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. All Share Issuance Notices shall set forth the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. Upon written request of any Lender at any time, the Borrower shall, within one (1) Business Day, confirm orally and in writing to such Lender the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. At any time following delivery of a Share Issuance Notice and ending on the last Trading Day prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date, each Lender shall have the right to deliver notice to the Borrower (a “Cap Notice”) stating the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued to such Lender without exceeding the maximum number of shares that such Lender may receive under the 4.985% Cap (the “Maximum Share Amount”), which shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower and such Lender. In no event shall (a) the number of shares issued to a Lender pursuant to any Share Issuance Notice exceed the Maximum Share Amount specified in such Lender’s Cap Notice; or (b) the aggregate number of shares issued to a Lender pursuant to any Share Issuance Notice, together with the shares previously issued to such Lender pursuant to Share Issuance Notices, exceed such Lender’s Share Issuance Limit. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall not be entitled, or permitted, to issue an aggregate number of shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Exhibit 2.6 in excess of the Share Issuance Limit.
6. Allocation Among Lenders. Subject to Section 5 of this Exhibit, all shares of Common Stock issuable to the Lenders pursuant to this Exhibit, all Credit Amounts and all Failure Amounts shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders based on each Lender’s First Out Waterfall Pro Rata Share, in each case unless the Lenders notify the Borrower in writing of any different allocation ratio.
7. Termination of Right to Issue Shares. If any of the Share Issuance Conditions is not satisfied at any time following the delivery of a Share Issuance Notice and prior to the Interest Payment Date to which the Share Issuance Notice relates, the Borrower shall immediately notify each of the Lenders of such failure and the Borrower shall not be permitted to issue shares of common Stock in lieu of the cash interest owed on the such Interest Payment Date.
8. Failure to Deliver Share Issuance Shares. If the Borrower fails on any Interest Payment Date to cause the delivery of the Interest Payment Shares required to be delivered on that date, and such failure is not cured within one (1) Trading Day following such Interest Payment Date (a “Share Delivery Failure”), the Share Issuance Amount in respect to such Interest Payment Date shall not be reduced in respect of such Interest Payment Shares until such shares are
actually issued and delivered, and in addition to all other rights and remedies of the Lenders and the Lenders under this Exhibit, the Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (a) the Borrower shall promptly pay to each of the Lenders, for each day that such Share Delivery Failure occurs or continues, an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the amount that would have constituted such Lender’s Credit Amount on such day had such failure not occurred (the “Failure Amount”); and (b) if any Lender is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or any Lender or such Lender’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Lender of the Interest Payment Shares which such Lender was entitled to receive on such Interest Payment Date, then the Borrower shall (1) pay in cash to such Lender the amount by which (X) such Lender’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (Y) the amount obtained by multiplying (I) the number of Interest Payment Shares that the Borrower was required to deliver to such Lender on such Interest Payment Date, times (II) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed.

Pursuant to Section 3 of Exhibit 2.6 (the “Exhibit”) of that certain Amended and Restated Facility Agreement (the “Facility Agreement”), dated as of August 9, 2018, between the Borrower and the Lenders party thereto from time to time (each an “Lender” and collectively, the “Lenders”), the Borrower has delivered to the Lenders a Share Issuance Notice (as defined in the Exhibit), dated as of [ , ], pursuant to which the Borrower has elected to satisfy certain payment obligations under the Facility Agreement by issuing shares of Common Stock to the Lenders. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Facility Agreement or the Exhibit, as applicable.
We are counsel for the Borrower and have been requested to furnish to you an opinion with respect to all of the shares of Common Stock of the Borrower that will be issued to the Lenders in connection the abovementioned Share Issuance Notice (the “Shares”).
As a basis for this opinion, we have received and reviewed (1) the Facility Agreement, including the Exhibit, (2) the Share Issuance Notice, (3) an officer’s certificate from the Borrower and (4) such other documents as we have deemed relevant or necessary.
On the basis of the foregoing and assuming the accuracy of the aforementioned representations of each Lender, it is our opinion that the Shares may be resold by each Lender without restriction under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and, accordingly, the Shares may be issued without any restrictive legend to each Lender or its designee in accordance with each such Lender’s instructions with respect to Shares delivered to such Lender.
Any questions concerning the foregoing opinion should be communicated to [ ] of this firm.
Very truly yours,

(c) Mechanics of Conversion. The conversion of this Note shall be conducted in the following manner:
(i) Lender’s Delivery Requirements. To convert a Conversion Amount into Conversion Shares pursuant to Section 2(a) above on any date, Lender shall (A) transmit by facsimile or electronic mail (or otherwise deliver), for receipt on or prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time on such date, a copy of an executed conversion notice in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Conversion Notice”) to the Borrower (at 2 Xxxxxx, Irxxxx, XX 00000, Attention: Chief Financial Officer; Email: xxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx, or at such other office or agency as the Borrower may designate in writing), and (B) if required by Section 2(c)(vi), surrender to a common carrier for delivery to the Borrower, no later than three (3) Business Days after the Conversion Date, of the original Note being converted (or an indemnification undertaking in customary form with respect to this Note in the case of its loss, theft or destruction).
(ii) Borrower’s Response. Upon receipt or deemed receipt by the Borrower of a copy of a Conversion Notice, the Borrower (A) shall immediately send, via facsimile, a confirmation of receipt of such Conversion Notice to the Lender and the Borrower’s designated transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), which confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Transfer Agent to process such Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms herein, and (B) on or before the second (2nd) Business Day following the date of receipt or deemed receipt by the Borrower of such Conversion Notice (or, if earlier, the end of the standard settlement period for U.S. broker-dealer securities transactions) (the “Share Delivery Date”), shall credit such aggregate number of Conversion Shares to which the Lender shall be entitled to the Lender’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian (DWAC) system, for the number of Conversion Shares to which the Lender shall be entitled. If notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2(c)(vi), the Lender elects to physically surrender this Note for conversion and the Principal represented by this Note is greater than the Principal being converted, then the Borrower shall, as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after receipt of this Note and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the Lender a new Note representing the Principal not converted and cancel this Note. For purposes of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, any Conversion Shares issued to Lender shall be deemed to have been acquired by such Lender on April 3, 2017 (the date this Note was originally issued). Accordingly, (A) upon any conversion of this Note, the Rule 144 holding period for the Conversion Shares acquired thereupon shall be in excess of one (1) year, and (B) provided the Lender is not an Affiliate of the Borrower on the Conversion Date and has not been an Affiliate of the Borrower within the three-month period immediately preceding the Conversion Date (the “Unrestricted Condition”), which the Borrower shall assume and Lender hereby represents unless the Lender advises the Borrower otherwise in writing, the Conversion Shares issued to Lender will be freely transferable, without restriction or limitation (including any volume limitation) under Federal or state securities laws, pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act and will not contain or be subject to a legend or stop transfer order restricting the resale or transferability of thereof.
(iii) Dispute Resolution. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Conversion Price or the arithmetic calculation of the Conversion Rate, the Borrower shall instruct the Transfer Agent to issue to the Lender the number of Conversion Shares that is not disputed and shall transmit an explanation of the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations to the Lender via facsimile within two (2) Business Days of receipt or deemed receipt of the Lender’s Conversion Notice or other date of determination. If the Lender and the Borrower are unable to agree upon the determination of the Conversion Price or arithmetic calculation of the Conversion Rate within one (1) Business Day of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being transmitted to the Lender, then the Borrower shall
EX. A - 5
promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) submit via facsimile (A) the disputed determination of the Conversion Price to an independent, reputable investment banking firm agreed to by the Borrower and the Required Lenders, or (B) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Conversion Rate to the Borrower’s independent registered public accounting firm, as the case may be. The Borrower shall direct the investment bank or the accounting firm, as the case may be, to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Borrower and the Lender of the results no later than two (2) Business Days from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment bank’s or accounting firm’s determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all parties absent manifest error, and the fees and expenses of such investment bank or accountant shall be paid one-half by the Borrower and one-half by the Lender. Notwithstanding the existence of a dispute contemplated by this paragraph, if requested by the Lender, the Borrower shall issue to the Lender the Conversion Shares not in dispute in accordance with the terms hereof.
(iv) Record Holder. The person or persons entitled to receive the Conversion Shares issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for all purposes as the legal and record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock upon delivery by the Lender of the Conversion Notice, or in the case of Conversion Shares the issuance of which is subject to a bona fide dispute that is subject to and being resolved pursuant to, and in compliance with the time periods and other provisions of, the dispute resolution provisions of Section 2(c)(iii), the first Business Day after the resolution of such bona fide dispute.
(v) Borrower’s Failure to Timely Convert.
(A) Cash Damages. If by the Share Delivery Date, the Borrower shall fail to credit the Lender’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC with the number of Conversion Shares (free of any restrictive legend, provided the Unrestricted Condition is satisfied), then, in addition to all other available remedies that the Lender may pursue hereunder and under the Facility Agreement, the Borrower shall pay additional damages to the Lender for each day after the Share Delivery Date such conversion is not timely effected in an amount equal to one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the product of (I) the number of Conversion Shares not issued to the Lender or its designee on or prior to the Share Delivery Date and to which the Lender is entitled and (II) the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock on the Share Delivery Date. Alternatively in lieu of the foregoing damages, subject to Section 2(c)(iii), at the written election of the Lender made in the Lender’s sole discretion, if, on or after the applicable Conversion Date, the Lender purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Lender of Conversion Shares that such Lender anticipated receiving from the Borrower (such purchased shares, “Buy-In Shares”), the Borrower shall be obligated to promptly pay to such Lender (in addition to all other available remedies that the Lender may otherwise have), 110% of the amount by which (A) such Lender’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for such Buy-In Shares exceeds (B) the net proceeds received by such Lender from the sale of a number of shares equal to up to the number of Conversion Shares such Lender was entitled to receive but had not received on the Share Delivery Date. If the Borrower fails to pay the additional damages set forth in this Section 2(c)(v)(A) within five (5) Business Days of the date incurred, then the Lender entitled to such payments shall have the right at any time, so long as the Borrower continues to fail to make such payments, to require the Borrower, upon written notice, to immediately issue, in lieu of such cash damages, the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (X) the aggregate amount of the damages payments described herein divided by (Y) the Conversion Price specified by the Lender in the Conversion Notice.
(B) Conversion Failure. If for any reason the Lender has not received all of the Conversion Shares it is entitled to prior to the tenth (10th) Business Day after the Share Delivery Date with respect to a conversion of this Note (a “Conversion Failure”), then the Lender, upon written
EX. A - 6
notice to the Borrower (a “Void Conversion Notice”), may void its conversion with respect to, and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Note that has not been converted pursuant to the Lender’s Conversion Notice; provided, that the voiding of the Lender’s Conversion Notice shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations to make any payments that have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to Section 2(c)(v)(A) or otherwise. A Conversion Failure shall constitute an Event of Default under the Facility Agreement and entitle the Lenders to all payments and remedies provided under the Facility Agreement upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.
(vi) Book-Entry. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion or repayment of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Lender shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Borrower unless all of the Principal is being converted or repaid. The Lender and the Borrower shall maintain records showing the Principal converted or repaid and the dates of such conversions or repayments or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Lender and the Borrower, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon any such partial conversion or repayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Note is converted or repaid as aforesaid, the Lender may not transfer this Note unless the Lender first physically surrenders this Note to the Borrower, whereupon the Borrower will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Lender a new Note of like tenor, registered as the Lender may request, representing in the aggregate the remaining Principal represented by this Note. The Lender and any assignee, by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion or repayment of any portion of this Note, the Principal of this Note may be less than the “Principal Amount” stated on the face hereof.
(d) Limitations on Conversions.
(i) Beneficial Ownership. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Borrower shall not issue to the Lender, and the Lender may not acquire, a number of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note or otherwise issue any shares of Common Stock pursuant hereto or the Facility Agreement to the extent that, upon such conversion, the number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by the Lender and its Affiliates and any other persons or entities whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Lender’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including shares held by any “group” of which the Lender is a member, but excluding shares beneficially owned by virtue of the ownership of the Warrants or other securities or rights to acquire securities that have limitations on the right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein) would exceed 4.985% of the total number of shares of common stock then issued and outstanding (the “4.985% Cap”); provided, however, that the 4.985% Cap shall only apply to the extent that the Common Stock is deemed to constitute an “equity security” pursuant to Rule 13d-1(i) promulgated under the Exchange Act. For purposes hereof, “group” has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable regulations of the SEC, and the percentage held by the Lender shall be determined in a manner consistent with the provisions of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. Upon the written request of the Lender, the Borrower shall, within two (2) Trading Days, confirm orally and in writing to the Lender the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.
(ii) Conversion Issuance Limit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Borrower shall not issue any shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note (including pursuant to Section 2(c)(v)(A) hereof) to the extent that the issuance of such shares of Common Stock together with any previous issuances of shares of Common Stock under this Note would exceed the Conversion Issuance Limit, and Section 2.5(c)(v) shall not apply in respect to any excess amount.
(iii) Other Applicable Limitations on Conversion of the Note. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Note shall not be convertible, and the Borrower shall not issue shares of
EX. A - 7
Common Stock upon conversion of this Note (a) at any time after the First Amortization Date, to the extent that the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issuable to Lender upon such conversion, together with all shares of Common Stock previously issued to Lender upon conversion of this Note after the First Amortization Date, would exceed the First Amortization Cap, or (b) at any time after the Second Amortization Date, to the extent that the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issuable to Lender upon such conversion, together with all shares of Common Stock previously issued to Lender upon conversion of this Note after the Second Amortization Date, would exceed the Second Amortization Cap, or (c) during any Monthly Conversion Cap Period, to the extent that the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issuable to Lender upon such conversion, together with all shares previously issued to Lender upon conversion of this Note during the such Monthly Conversion Cap Period, would exceed the Monthly Conversion Cap. For the avoidance of doubt, if the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued as set forth in an Conversion Notice transmitted by the Lender to the Borrower would otherwise require the Borrower to issue a number of shares in excess of the Conversion Issuance Limit, the First Amortization Cap (if after the First Amortization Date), the Second Amortization Cap (if after the Second Amortization Date) or the Monthly Share Cap, the Borrower shall issue to the Lender in accordance herewith the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable without exceeding any such applicable limitation, and Section 2.5(c)(v) shall not apply to any excess amount.
3. Voting Rights. Except as required by law, the Lender shall have no voting rights with respect to any of the Conversion Shares until the Conversion Date relating to the conversion of this Note upon which such Conversion Shares are issuable (or in the case of Conversion Shares the issuance of which is subject to a bona fide dispute that is subject to and being resolved pursuant to, and in compliance with the time periods and other provisions of, the dispute resolution provisions of Section 2(c)(iii), the first Business Day after the resolution of such bona fide dispute).
4. Amendment; Waiver. The provisions of this Note may only be waived or amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with the Facility Agreement.
5. Specific Shall Not Limit General; Construction. No specific provision contained in this Note shall limit or modify any more general provision contained herein. This Note shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Borrower and all Lenders pursuant to the Facility Agreement and shall not be construed against any Person as the drafter hereof.
6. Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver. No delay or omission by the Lender in exercising any power or right hereunder shall impair such right or power or be construed to be a waiver of any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right hereunder preclude the full exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. No renewal or extension of this Note or the Facility Agreement, no delay in the enforcement of payment under this Note or the Facility Agreement, and no delay or omission in exercising any right or power under this Note or the Facility Agreement shall affect the liability of the Borrower or any endorser of this Note.
7. Notices. Whenever notice is required to be given under this Note, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in accordance with Section 6.1 of the Facility Agreement.
8. Restrictions on Transfer.
(a) Registration or Exemption Required. This Note has been issued in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. None of the Note or the Conversion Shares issued hereunder may be transferred, sold, assigned, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption to the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws, including Rule 144 under the Securities Act, Section 4(a)(7) of the Securities Act

The provisions of this Note are intended to be for the benefit of all Lenders from time to time of this Note, and shall be enforceable by any such Lender. This Note is not (and any rights or obligations hereunder are not) not assignable or transferable by the Borrower under any circumstance and any such prohibited assignment or transfer is absolutely void ab initio.
9. Payment of Collection, Enforcement and Other Costs. If (a) this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement or is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding; or (b) an attorney is retained to represent the Lender in any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of the Borrower or other proceedings affecting Borrower creditors’ rights and involving a claim under this Note, then the Borrower shall pay the costs incurred by the Lender for such collection, enforcement or action, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements.

Warrant to Purchase Common Stock
of
Endologix, Inc.
THIS CERTIFIES that or any subsequent holder hereof (“Holder”) has the right to purchase from Endologix, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), ( ) fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), subject to adjustment as provided herein, at a price equal to the Exercise Price (as defined in Section 3 below), at any time during the Term (as defined in Section 1 below).
Holder agrees with the Company that this Warrant to Purchase Common Stock of the Company (this “Warrant” or this “Agreement”) is issued and all rights hereunder shall be held subject to all of the conditions, limitations and provisions set forth herein.
1. Date of Issuance and Term.
This Warrant shall be deemed to be issued on (“Date of Issuance”). The term of this Warrant begins on the Date of Issuance and ends at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that is seven (7) years after the Date of Issuance (the “Term”). This Warrant was issued pursuant to that certain Facility Agreement (as may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Facility Agreement”) by and among the Company and Deerfield Private Design Fund III, L.P., Deerfield Private Design Fund IV, L.P., Deerfield Partners, L.P. and Deerfield International Master Fund, L.P., dated as of April 3, 2017, and in conjunction with that certain Registration Rights Agreement (as may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from
time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Registration Rights Agreement”) by and among the Company and Deerfield Private Design Fund III, L.P., Deerfield Private Design Fund IV, L.P., Deerfield Partners, L.P. and Deerfield International Master Fund, L.P., dated as of April 3, 2017.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not issue to Holder, and Holder may not acquire, a number of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant to the extent that, upon such exercise, the number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by Holder and its Affiliates and any other persons or entities whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (including shares held by any “group” of which Holder is a member, but excluding shares beneficially owned by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities that have limitations on the right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein), would exceed 4.985% of the total number of shares of Common Stock then issued and outstanding (the “4.985% Cap”); provided, however, that the 4.985% Cap shall only apply to the extent that the Common Stock is deemed to constitute an “equity security” pursuant to Rule 13d-1(i) promulgated under the Exchange Act. For purposes hereof, “group” has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and the percentage held by Holder shall be determined in a manner consistent with the provisions of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. Upon the written request of Holder, the Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days, confirm orally and in writing to Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.
For purposes hereof:
“Affiliate” means any person or entity that, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls or is controlled by or is under common control with a person or entity, as such terms are used in and construed under Rule 144 (“Rule 144”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). With respect to a Holder, any investment fund or managed account that is managed on a discretionary basis by the same investment manager as such Holder shall, for purposes hereof, be deemed to be an Affiliate of such Holder.
“Asset Sale” means a transaction covered by the provisions of clause (B) of the definition of “Major Transaction” involving the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries (as defined in the Facility Agreement), taken as a whole) in connection with which the Company has announced its intention to liquidate and distribute its assets to stockholders.
“Black-Scholes Value” shall mean the Black-Scholes value of this Warrant, or applicable portion thereof, as determined by use of the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model using the criteria set forth on Schedule 1 hereto.
“Business Day” means a day other than a Saturday or Sunday or any other day on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law to close in New York City.
“Cashless Default Exercise” shall mean an exercise of this Warrant as a “Cashless Default Exercise” in accordance with Sections 3(c) and 11(b) hereof.
“Cashless Major Exercise” shall mean an exercise of this Warrant or portion thereof as a “Cashless Major Exercise” in accordance with Sections 3(b) and 5(b)(i) hereof.
“Cash Out Major Transaction” means a Major Transaction in which the consideration payable to holders of Common Stock in connection with the Major Transaction consists solely of cash.
4
“Eligible Market” means the New York Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ Capital Market, the NASDAQ Global Market, the NASDAQ Global Select Market, the NYSE MKT or, in each case, any successor thereto.
“Parent Entity” of a Person means an entity that, directly or indirectly, controls the applicable Person and whose common stock or equivalent equity security is quoted or listed on an Eligible Market, or, if there is more than one such Person or Parent Entity, the Person or Parent Entity with the largest public market capitalization as of the date of consummation of a Major Transaction.
“Person” means an individual, a limited liability company, a partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a trust, an unincorporated organization, any other entity and a government or any department or agency thereof.
“Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period for equity trades effected on securities exchanges in the United States, expressed in a number of Trading Days, as in effect on the applicable Date of Exercise (as defined in Section 2(b)).
“Successor Entity” means any Person purchasing the Company’s assets or Common Stock, or any successor entity resulting from such Major Transaction, or if the Warrant is to be exercisable for shares of capital stock of a Parent Entity (as defined above), such Person’s Parent Entity.
“Successor Major Transaction” means either a Takeout Major Transaction or an Asset Sale.
“Successor Major Transaction Consideration” means (i) in the case of a Takeout Major Transaction (other than a Cash Out Major Transaction), the amount of cash and other assets and the number of securities or other property of the Successor Entity or other entity that would be issuable in such Major Transaction, in respect of a number of shares equal to the Successor Major Transaction Conversion Share Amount and (ii) in the case of an Asset Sale or a Cash Out Major Transaction, an amount of cash equal to the Black-Scholes Value of the Warrant.
“Successor Major Transaction Conversion Share Amount” means an amount equal to the Black-Scholes Value of the Warrant (or such applicable portion subject to a Successor Major Transaction Conversion), divided by the closing price of the Common Stock on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the applicable Major Transaction is consummated.
“Takeout Major Transaction” means a transaction covered by the provisions of clause (A) of the definition of “Major Transaction” in which the shares of Common Stock of the Company are converted into the right to receive cash, securities of another entity and/or other assets.
“Trading Day” shall mean any day on which the Common Stock is traded for any period on the NASDAQ Global Select Market (“NasdaqGS”) or, if the NasdaqGS is not the principal trading market for the Common Stock, on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded; provided, however, that during any period in which the Common Stock is not listed or quoted on the NasdaqGS or any other securities exchange or market, the term “Trading Day” shall mean a Business Day.
2. Exercise.
(a) Manner of Exercise. During the Term (or, in respect of a Cashless Major Exercise, the Cashless Major Exercise Period (as defined below)), this Warrant may be Exercised as to all or any lesser number of whole
5
shares of Common Stock covered hereby (the “Warrant Shares” or the “Shares”) by sending to the Company the Exercise Form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1 (the “Exercise Form”) duly completed and executed, and, if applicable, the full Exercise Price (as defined below, which may be satisfied by a Cash Exercise, a Cashless Exercise or a Note Exchange Exercise, as each is defined below) for each share of Common Stock as to which this Warrant is Exercised, at the office of the Company, 2 Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, XX 00000, Attention: Chief Financial Officer; Phone: (000) 000-0000, Email: xxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate in writing, by overnight mail or electronic mail (any such exercise of the Warrant being hereinafter called an “Exercise” of this Warrant).
(b) Date of Exercise. The “Date of Exercise” of the Warrant shall, in each case, be the date that the Exercise Form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1, completed and executed, is sent by electronic mail to the Company, provided that the Exercise Price is satisfied as soon as practicable thereafter but in no event later than two (2) Business Days following the date of such electronic mail. Alternatively, the Date of Exercise shall be defined as the date the original Exercise Form is received by the Company, if Holder has not previously sent the Exercise Form by electronic mail. Upon delivery of the Exercise Form to the Company by electronic mail or otherwise, Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been Exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to Holder’s or its designee’s Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares, as the case may be; provided, however, that in the event an Exercise Form in respect of a Cashless Major Exercise is delivered prior to the occurrence of the applicable Major Transaction, Holder shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the shares issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the consummation of such Major Transaction and the Date of Exercise shall in such event be deemed to have occurred on the date of the occurrence of the Major Transaction. Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days following the date the final Exercise Form is delivered to the Company. Execution and delivery of an Exercise Form with respect to a partial Exercise shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares.
(c) Delivery of Common Stock Upon Exercise. Within the earlier of (x) three (3) Trading Days and (y) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period after any Date of Exercise (but, in the case of a Cash Exercise, within two (2) Business Days following the Company’s receipt of the full Exercise Price, if later) or in the case of a Cashless Default Exercise (as defined in Section 5(b) below), within the period provided in Section 3(c), as applicable (the “Delivery Period”), the Company shall issue and deliver (or cause its transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to issue and deliver) in accordance with the terms hereof to or upon the order of Holder that number of shares of Common Stock (“Exercise Shares”) for the portion of this Warrant exercised as shall be determined in accordance herewith. Upon the Exercise of this Warrant or any part hereof, the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all necessary action, including obtaining and delivering an opinion of counsel, to assure that the Transfer Agent shall issue stock certificates in the name of Holder (or its nominee) or such other persons as designated by Holder and in such denominations as Holder shall specify at Exercise, representing the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Exercise. The Company warrants that no instructions other than these instructions have been or will be given to the Transfer Agent and that, unless waived by Holder, this Warrant and the Exercise Shares will be free-trading, and freely transferable, and will not contain or be subject to a legend (or be subject to any stop transfer instruction) restricting the resale or transferability of the Exercise Shares if the Unrestricted Conditions (as defined below) are met.
6
The Company shall be responsible for paying all present or future stamp, court or documentary, intangible, recording, filing or similar taxes that arise from any payment or issuance made under, from the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, this Warrant.
(d) Delivery Failure. In addition to any other remedies which may be available to Holder, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Exercise Shares by the end of the Delivery Period (a “Delivery Failure”), Holder will be entitled to revoke all or part of the relevant Exercise by delivery of a notice to such effect to the Company whereupon the Company and Holder shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the delivery of such notice of revocation, except that the Failure Payments under Section 10(b) shall be payable through the date such notice of revocation is given to the Company.
(e) Legends.
(i) Restrictive Legend. Holder understands that until such time as this Warrant, the Exercise Shares and the Failure Payment Shares (as defined below) have been registered under the Securities Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, this Warrant, the Exercise Shares and the Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order consistent therewith may be placed against transfer of the certificates for such securities):
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT, OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SAID ACT INCLUDING PURSUANT TO SECTION 4(A)(7) OF THE SECURITIES ACT OR RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT OR PURSUANT TO A PRIVATE SALE EFFECTED UNDER APPLICABLE FORMAL OR INFORMAL SEC INTERPRETATION OR GUIDANCE, SUCH AS A SO-CALLED “4[(a)](1) AND A HALF” SALE.” NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.
“THE SALE, TRANSFER OR ASSIGNMENT OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF A CERTAIN REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT DATED AS OF APRIL 3, 2017, AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, AMONG THE COMPANY AND CERTAIN HOLDERS OF ITS OUTSTANDING SECURITIES. COPIES OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED AT NO COST BY WRITTEN REQUEST MADE BY THE HOLDER OF RECORD OF THIS CERTIFICATE TO THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.”
(ii) Removal of Restrictive Legends. This Warrant and the certificates (or electronic book entries, if applicable) evidencing the Exercise Shares and the Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, shall not contain or be subject to any legend restricting the transfer thereof (including the legend set forth above in subsection
7
2(e)(i)) or be subject to any stop-transfer instructions: (A) while a registration statement (including a Registration Statement, as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) covering the sale or resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act, or (B) following any sale of such Warrant, Exercise Shares and/or Failure Payment Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (C) if such Warrant, Exercise Shares and/or Failure Payment Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(b)(1), or (D) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the SEC) (collectively, the “Unrestricted Conditions”). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly after the Effective Date, or at such other time as any of the Unrestricted Conditions have been met, if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the issuance of this Warrant, the Exercise Shares or the Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, without a restrictive legend or removal of the legend hereunder. If any of the Unrestricted Conditions are met at the time of issuance of this Warrant, the Exercise Shares or the Failure Payment Shares, then such Warrant, Exercise Shares or Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, shall be issued free of all legends and stop-transfer instructions. The Company agrees that following the Effective Date, or at such time as the Unrestricted Conditions are met or such legend is otherwise no longer required under this Section 2(e), it will, no later than the earlier of (x) three (3) Trading Days and (y) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following the delivery (the “Unlegended Shares Delivery Deadline”) by Holder to the Company or the Transfer Agent of this Warrant and a certificate representing Exercise Shares and/or Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend (such third Trading Day, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to Holder this Warrant and/or a certificate (or electronic transfer) representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends (and stop transfer instructions). For purposes hereof, “Effective Date” shall mean the date that the first Registration Statement that the Company is required to file pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement has been declared effective by the SEC.
(iii) Sale of Unlegended Shares. Holder agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend from this Warrant and any certificates representing securities as set forth in Section 2(e) above is predicated upon the Company’s reliance that Holder will sell this Warrant or any Exercise Shares and/or any Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if such securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein.
(f) Cancellation of Warrant. This Warrant shall be canceled upon the full Exercise of this Warrant, and, as soon as practical after the Date of Exercise, Holder shall be entitled to receive Common Stock for the number of shares purchased upon such Exercise of this Warrant, and if this Warrant is not Exercised in full, Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant (containing terms identical to this Warrant) representing any unexercised portion of this Warrant in addition to such Common Stock; provided, however, as set forth in Section 2(b), Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this warrant if the Warrant is not Exercised in full.
(g) Holder of Record. Each person in whose name any Warrant for shares of Common Stock is issued shall, for all purposes, be deemed to be Holder of record of such shares on the Date of Exercise, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Common Stock purchased upon the Exercise of this Warrant. Prior to the exercise of this Warrant, nothing in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon Holder any rights as a stockholder of the Company.
(h) Delivery of Electronic Shares. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon Exercise or legend removal, or representing Failure Payment Shares, upon written request of Holder, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Transfer Agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon Exercise to Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s prime
8
broker with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system. The time periods for delivery and penalties described herein shall apply to the electronic transmittals described herein. Any delivery not effected by electronic transmission shall be effected by delivery of physical certificates.
(i) Buy-In. In addition to any other rights or remedies available to Holder hereunder or otherwise at law or in equity, if the Company fails to cause its Transfer Agent to deliver to Holder a certificate or certificates, or electronic shares through DWAC, representing the Exercise Shares pursuant to an Exercise on or before the last day of the Delivery Period (other than a failure caused by any incorrect or incomplete information provided by Holder to the Company hereunder), and if after such date Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or Holder or Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by Holder of the Exercise Shares which Holder was entitled to receive upon such Exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (1) pay in cash to Holder the amount by which (x) Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Exercise Shares that the Company was required to deliver to Holder in connection with the Exercise at issue by (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (2) at the option of Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Exercise Shares for which such Exercise was not honored (and refund the Exercise Price therefor, to the extent paid by Holder, and/or reinstate the principal amount of any indebtedness used to satisfy the applicable Exercise Price) or deliver to Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its Exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted Exercise to cover the sale of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay Holder $1,000. Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to Holder in respect of the Buy-In, together with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested by the Company. Nothing herein shall limit Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon Exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
(j) HSR Submissions. If Holder determines that, in connection with the exercise of this Warrant, it and the Company are required to file Premerger Notification Reports with the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) and the United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) and observe the Waiting Period under the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the related rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “HSR Act”), the Company agrees to (i) cooperate with Holder in Holder’s preparing and making such submission and any responses to inquiries of the FTC and DOJ; (ii) prepare and make any submission required to be filed by the Company under the HSR Act and respond to inquiries of the FTC and DOJ in connection therewith; and (iii) reimburse Holder for the cost of the required filing fee for Holder’s submission under the HSR Act. For the avoidance of doubt, Holder shall bear all of its other costs and expenses in connection with such submission, including any attorneys’ fees associated therewith.
3. Payment of Warrant Exercise Price for Cash Exercise or Cashless Exercise; Cashless Major Exercise and Cashless Default Exercise.
(a) Exercise Price. The exercise price shall initially equal $________ per share, subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms hereof (as so adjusted, the “Exercise Price”), including but not limited to Section 5 below.
9
Payment of the Exercise Price may be made by either of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of Holder:
(i) Cash Exercise: Holder may exercise this Warrant in cash, bank or cashier’s check or wire transfer (a “Cash Exercise”);
(ii) Cashless Exercise: In lieu of paying all or any portion of the Exercise Price in cash, Holder, at its option, may exercise this Warrant (in whole or in part) on a cashless basis by making appropriate notation on the applicable Exercise Form, in which event the Company shall issue Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):
X = Y (A-B)/A
where: X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder.
Y = the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is being Exercised.
A = the Market Price of one (1) share of Common Stock (for purposes of this Section 3(a)(ii), where “Market Price,” as of any date, means the Volume Weighted Average Price (as defined herein) of the Company’s Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period immediately preceding the Date of Exercise or other date in question, as applicable.
B = the Exercise Price.
As used herein, the “Volume Weighted Average Price” for any security as of any date means the volume weighted average sale price on the NasdaqGS as reported by, or based upon data reported by, Bloomberg Financial Markets or an equivalent, reliable reporting service mutually acceptable to and hereafter designated by holders of a majority in interest of the Warrants and the Company (“Bloomberg”) or, if the NasdaqGS is not the principal trading market for such security, the volume weighted average sale price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no volume weighted average sale price is reported for such security, then the last closing trade price of such security as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no last closing trade price is reported for such security by Bloomberg, the average of the bid prices of any market makers for such security that are listed or quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, the OTCQX Market, the OTCQB Market or on the “pink” market of OTC Markets Group Inc. If the Volume Weighted Average Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner provided above, the volume weighted average price shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Company and Holders of a majority in interest of the Warrants being Exercised for which the calculation of the volume weighted average price is required in order to determine the Exercise Price of such Warrants.
(iii) Note Exchange Exercise: In lieu of paying all or any portion of the Exercise Price in cash, Holder, at its option, may exercise this Warrant (in whole or in part) through a reduction of an amount of principal outstanding under any Notes in accordance with Section 2.3(b) of the Facility Agreement, then held by Holder (a “Note Exchange Exercise”)
For purposes of Rule 144 and subsection (d)(3)(ii) thereof, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Common Stock issuable upon Exercise of this Warrant in a Cashless Exercise transaction or a Note Exchange Exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired at the time this Warrant was issued (in the case of a Cashless Exercise) or at the time the applicable Note was issued (in the case of a Note Exchange Exercise). Moreover, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the holding period for the
10
Common Stock issuable upon Exercise of this Warrant in a Cashless Exercise transaction or a Note Exchange Exercise transaction shall be deemed to have commenced on the date this Warrant was issued (in the case of a Cashless Exercise) or on the date the applicable Note was issued (in the case of a Note Exchange Exercise). As provided in Section 2(b), Holder shall only be required to physically surrender this Warrant in the event that Holder is exercising this Warrant in full.
(b) Cashless Major Exercise. To the extent Holder shall exercise this Warrant as a Cashless Major Exercise pursuant to Section 5(b)(i) and 5(b)(iii) below, Holder shall send to the Company (in any manner permitted under Section 2(a)) the Exercise Form indicating that Holder is exercising this Warrant (or any portion thereof) pursuant to a Cashless Major Exercise, in which event the Company shall issue a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Black-Scholes Value of the Warrant (or such applicable portion being exercised) divided by the closing price of the Common Stock on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the applicable Major Transaction is consummated, or, if in respect of a Cashless Major Exercise made after the date of consummation of the applicable Major Transaction, on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the exercise form in respect of such Cashless Major Exercise is delivered. As provided in Section 2(b), Holder shall only be required to physically surrender this Warrant in the event that Holder is exercising this Warrant in full. Holder shall be permitted to make successive Cashless Major Exercises and send successive Exercise Forms in respect of a Cashless Major Exercise from time to time at any time during the Cashless Major Exercise Period.
(c) Cashless Default Exercise. To the extent Holder exercises this Warrant as a Cashless Default Exercise pursuant to Section 11(b)(i) below, Holder shall send to the Company (in any manner permitted under Section 2(a)) the Exercise Form indicating that Holder is exercising this Warrant pursuant to a Cashless Default Exercise, in which event the Company shall issue to Holder, within five (5) Trading Days of the applicable Default Notice, a number of shares of Common Stock (which shares shall be valued at the closing price of the Common Stock on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the Exercise Form in respect of such Cashless Default Exercise is delivered) equal to the Black-Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant (or such portion thereof subject to such exercise) as of the date of such Default Notice (or in the case of an Event of Default referred to in Section 11(a)(vi), on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date the dividend or distribution is declared or, if not first declared, is paid). As provided in Section 2(b), the Holder shall be permitted to make successive Cashless Default Exercises and send successive Exercise Forms in respect of a Cashless Default Exercise, from time to time at any time from and after the date of the applicable Default Notice through the Term of this Warrant.
(d) Dispute Resolution. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the closing price or the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Company’s Common Stock or the arithmetic calculation of the Exercise Price, Market Price or the Successor Major Transaction Consideration, or the number of shares issuable upon a Cashless Major Exercise, the Company shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations via electronic mail within two (2) Business Days of receipt, or deemed receipt, of the Exercise Form or Major Transaction Early Termination Notice, or other event giving rise to such dispute, as the case may be, to Holder. If Holder and the Company are unable to agree upon such determination or calculation within two (2) Business Days of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to Holder, then the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days submit via electronic mail (i) the disputed determination of the closing price or the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Company’s Common Stock to an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Company and approved by Holder, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, or (ii) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Exercise Price, Market Price, any Successor Major Transaction Consideration or number of shares issuable upon a Cashless Major Exercise to the Company’s independent, outside registered public accountants. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the investment bank or the accountants, as the case
11
may be, to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Company and Holder of the results no later than five (5) Trading Days from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment bank’s or accountants’ determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error, and the Company and Holder shall each pay one half of the fees and costs of such investment banker or accountant. Notwithstanding the existence of a dispute contemplated by this paragraph, if requested by Holder, the Company shall issue to Holder the Exercise Shares not in dispute in accordance with the terms hereof.
4. Transfer and Registration.
(a) Transfer Rights. Subject to the provisions of Section 8 of this Warrant, this Warrant may be transferred on the books of the Company, in whole or in part, in person or by attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant properly completed and endorsed. This Warrant shall be canceled upon such surrender and, as soon as practicable thereafter, the person to whom such transfer is made shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant or Warrants as to the portion of this Warrant transferred, and Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant as to the portion hereof retained.
(b) Registrable Securities. The Common Stock issuable upon the Exercise of this Warrant entitles Holder (and applicable assignees or transferees of such Common Stock) to registration and other rights pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement.
5. Adjustments Upon Certain Events.
(a) Recapitalization or Reclassification. If the Company shall at any time effect a stock split, payment of stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification or other similar transaction of such character that the shares of Common Stock shall be changed into or become exchangeable for a larger or smaller number of shares, then upon the effective date thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock which Holder shall be entitled to purchase upon Exercise of this Warrant, shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, in direct proportion to the increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock by reason of such stock split, payment of stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification or similar transaction, and the Exercise Price shall be, in the case of an increase in the number of shares, proportionally decreased and, in the case of decrease in the number of shares, proportionally increased. The Company shall give Holder the same notice it provides to holders of Common Stock of any transaction described in this Section 5(a).
(b) Rights Upon Major Transaction.
(i) Major Transaction. In the event that a Major Transaction occurs, then (1) in the case of a Successor Major Transaction, Holder, at its option, may elect to cause the conversion of this Warrant (a “Successor Major Transaction Conversion”), in whole or in part, into the right to receive the Successor Major Transaction Consideration, upon consummation of the Major Transaction, and (2) in the case of all other Major Transactions, Holder shall have the right to exercise this Warrant (or any portion thereof), at any time and from time to time following the occurrence of such event, as a Cashless Major Exercise. In the event Holder shall not have exercised any of its rights under clauses (1) or (2) above within the applicable time periods set forth herein, then the Major Transaction shall be treated as an Assumption (as defined below) in accordance with Section 5(b)(ii) below unless Holder waives its rights under this Section 5(b) with respect to such Major Transaction. Each of the following events shall constitute a “Major Transaction”:
(A) a consolidation, merger, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, business combination or other similar event, (1) following which the holders of Common Stock immediately preceding such consolidation, merger, exchange, recapitalization, reorganization, combination or event either
12
(a) no longer hold a majority of the shares of Common Stock or (b) no longer have the ability to elect a majority of the board of directors of the Company or (2) as a result of which shares of Common Stock shall be changed into (or the shares of Common Stock become entitled to receive) the same or a different number of shares of the same or another class or classes of stock or securities of the Company or another entity (collectively, a “Change of Control Transaction”);
(B) the sale or transfer, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of (I) all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole) to any Person other than a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company or (II) assets of the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole) for a purchase price equal to more than 50% of the Equity Value (as defined below) of the Company. For purposes of this clause (B), “Equity Value” shall mean (I) the product of (x) the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock on the date the Company delivers the Major Transaction Notice (defined below) multiplied by (y) the per share closing price of the Common Stock on such date on the NasdaqGS as reported by, or based upon data reported by, Bloomberg or, if the NasdaqGS is not the principal trading market for such security, the closing sale price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg;
(C) a purchase, tender or exchange offer made to the holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock, such that following such purchase, tender or exchange offer a Change of Control Transaction shall have occurred;
(D) the liquidation, bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or winding-up (or the occurrence of any analogous proceeding) affecting the Company;
(E) the shares of Common Stock cease to be listed, traded or publicly quoted on the NasdaqGS and are not promptly re-listed or requoted on the New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE MKT, the NASDAQ Global Market or the NASDAQ Capital Market; or
(F) the Common Stock ceases to be registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act.
(ii) Assumption. Any assumption of Company obligations under this paragraph shall be referred to herein as an “Assumption.” Unless otherwise provided in writing by Holder, the Company shall not consummate a Major Transaction in which the Company is not the surviving entity or as a result of which the Company has a new Parent Entity, unless (A) each Person acquiring the Company’s assets or Common Stock (or Parent Entity thereof, as applicable), or any other successor entity resulting from such Major Transaction (in each case, a “Successor Entity”), assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant, the Facility Agreement (but, other than with respect to the Company’s obligations pursuant to Section 5.1(e) and 5.1(p) of the Facility Agreement and the other provisions of the Facility Agreement that expressly survive the repayment of the Loans (which shall be assumed in any Assumption), only if there are outstanding Loans under the Facility Agreement immediately following the consummation of the Major Transaction) and the Registration Rights Agreement in accordance with the provisions of this Section
13
5(b)(ii) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Holder and approved by Holder prior to the consummation of such Major Transaction (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), including agreements to deliver to Holder in exchange for its Warrants a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to the Warrants, that, among other things, (1) is exercisable for the appropriate number of shares of the Successor Entity’s capital stock (without regard to the 4.985% Cap or any other restriction or limitation on exercise, provided that such instrument shall contain a limitation on exercise comparable to that contained in the second paragraph of Section 1 of this Warrant), (2) has an exercise price similar to the then-effective Exercise Price (taking into account any conversion or exchange ratio applicable to the Common Stock in the Major Transaction) and exercise price adjustment provisions similar to those in the Warrants; or (3) entitles Holder to such additional securities or other consideration as Holder would be entitled pursuant to Section 5(b)(i) in connection with the Major Transaction; and (4) provides for registration rights similar to those provided by the Registration Rights Agreement, in each case reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and (B) the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) is a publicly traded corporation whose common stock is quoted on or listed for trading on an Eligible Market. For the avoidance of doubt, Holders’ reasonable satisfaction referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall be construed only to apply to confirmation that the warrant or other comparable security and registration rights agreement delivered to Holder upon an assumption hereunder shall conform to the requirements of this Section 5(b)(ii), and this Section 5(b)(ii) shall not be construed as granting consent or approval rights to Holder with respect to the terms of such Major Transaction or to permit Holder to demand any additional consideration in respect of this Warrant other than as provided herein. Upon the occurrence of any Major Transaction, any Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Major Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of the Major Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the Major Transaction, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants prior to such Major Transaction, such shares of publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity, as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. The provisions of this Section shall apply similarly and equally to successive Major Transactions and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant other than any applicable beneficial ownership limitations.
(iii) Major Transaction Notice; Major Transaction Early Termination Right; Notice of Cashless Major Exercise. At least thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of any Major Transaction, but, in any event, within five (5) Trading Days following the first to occur of (x) the date of the public announcement of such Major Transaction if such announcement is made before 4:00 p.m., New York City time, or (y) the day following the public announcement of such Major Transaction if such announcement is made on and after 4:00 p.m., New York City time, the Company shall deliver written notice thereof via electronic mail and overnight courier to Holder (a “Major Transaction Notice”). At any time during the period beginning after Holder’s receipt of a Major Transaction Notice in respect of a Successor Major Transaction and ending five (5) Trading Days prior to the consummation of such Major Transaction (the “Early Termination Period”), Holder may elect a Successor Major Transaction Conversion by delivering written notice thereof (“Major Transaction Early Termination Notice”) to the Company, which Major Transaction Early Termination Notice shall indicate the portion of the Warrant (with reference to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a Cash Exercise of such portion, without regard to the 4.985% Cap) that Holder is electing to be treated as a Successor Major Transaction Conversion. The portion of this Warrant subject to early termination pursuant to this Section 5(b)(iii), shall be converted into the right to receive the Successor Major Transaction Consideration
14
To the extent Holder shall elect to effect a Cashless Major Exercise in respect of a Major Transaction, Holder shall deliver its Exercise Form in accordance with Section 3(b), at any time and from time to time following receipt by Holder of the Major Transaction Notice until the later of (x) the Term of this Warrant and (y) the one-year anniversary of the applicable Major Transaction (the “Cashless Major Exercise Period”). For the avoidance of doubt, Holder shall be permitted to make successive Cashless Major Exercises and send successive Exercise Forms in respect of a Cashless Major Exercise from time to time at any time during the Cashless Major Exercise Period.
(iv) Escrow; Payment of Successor Major Transaction Consideration. Following the receipt of a Major Transaction Early Termination Notice in respect of a Successor Major Transaction from Holder, the Company shall not effect a Successor Major Transaction with respect to which Holder has elected a Successor Major Transaction Conversion unless either (A) it obtains, as a condition precedent to such Major Transaction, the written agreement of the Successor Entity that payment of the Successor Major Transaction Consideration shall be made to Holder concurrently with consummation of such Successor Major Transaction, or (B) it shall place the Successor Major Transaction Consideration into an escrow account with an independent escrow agent, and shall instruct the escrow agent to deliver the Successor Major Transaction Consideration to Holder, concurrently with the consummation of the Major Transaction. Notwithstanding clauses (A) and (B) above, Holder shall be treated on a pari passu basis with, and shall not have priority to payments to, the holders of Common Stock in connection with a Major Transaction. For purposes of determining the amount required to be placed in escrow pursuant to the provisions of this subsection (iv) and without affecting the amount of the actual Successor Major Transaction Consideration, the calculation of the price referred to in clause (1) of the first column of Schedule 1 hereto with respect to Stock Price shall be determined based on the Closing Market Price (as defined on Schedule I) of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date that the Successor Major Transaction Consideration is deposited with the escrow agent.
(v) Injunction. Following the receipt of a Major Transaction Early Termination Notice from Holder, in the event that the Company attempts to consummate a Successor Major Transaction without either (1) placing the Successor Major Transaction Consideration in escrow in accordance with subsection (iv) above, or (2) obtaining the written agreement of the Successor Entity as described in subsection (iv) above, Holder shall have the right to apply for an injunction in any state or federal court sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan to prevent the closing of such Major Transaction until the Successor Major Transaction Consideration is delivered to Holder.
An early termination required by this Section 5(b) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 12. To the extent an early termination required by this Section 5(b) is deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Warrant by the Company, such early termination shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5, until the Successor Major Transaction Consideration is paid in full, this Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part, by Holder into shares of Common Stock, or in the event the Exercise Date is after the consummation of the Major Transaction, shares of publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity pursuant to Section 5(b). The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company’s early termination of any portion of the Warrant under this Section 5(b), Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for Holder. Accordingly, any premium due under this Section 5(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a commercially reasonable estimate of Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.
(c) Exercise Price Adjusted. As used in this Warrant, the term “Exercise Price” shall mean the purchase price per share specified in Section 3(a) of this Warrant, until the occurrence of an event stated in this Section 5 or otherwise set forth in this Warrant, and thereafter shall mean said price as adjusted from time to
15
time in accordance with the provisions of said subsection. No adjustment made pursuant to any provision of this Section 5 shall have the net effect of increasing the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder or, except as expressly provided in Section 5(a), otherwise increasing the Exercise Price.
(d) Adjustments: Additional Shares, Securities or Assets. In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5 or otherwise, Holder shall, upon Exercise of this Warrant, become entitled to receive shares and/or other securities or assets (other than Common Stock) then, wherever appropriate, all references herein to shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to refer to and include such shares and/or other securities or assets; and thereafter the number of such shares and/or other securities or assets shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and upon terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions of this Section 5.
(e) Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Exercise Price and/or number or type of securities issuable upon Exercise is adjusted pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, the Company shall promptly mail to Holder a notice (an “Exercise Price Adjustment Notice”) setting forth the Exercise Price and/or number or type of securities issuable upon Exercise after such adjustment and setting forth a statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. The Company shall, upon the written request at any time of Holder, furnish to Holder a like Warrant setting forth (i) such adjustment or readjustment, (ii) the Exercise Price at the time in effect and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon Exercise of the Warrant. For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Company provides an Exercise Price Adjustment Notice pursuant to this Section 5(e), upon the occurrence of any event that leads to an adjustment of the Exercise Price, Holder would be entitled to receive a number of Exercise Shares based upon the new Exercise Price, as adjusted, for exercises occurring on or after the date of such adjustment, regardless of whether Holder accurately refers to the adjusted Exercise Price in the Exercise Form.
6. Fractional Interests.
No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issuable upon the Exercise of this Warrant, but on Exercise of this Warrant, Holder may purchase only a whole number of shares of Common Stock. If, on Exercise of this Warrant, Holder would be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock or a right to acquire a fractional share of Common Stock, such fractional share shall be disregarded and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon Exercise shall be the next higher whole number of shares.
7. Reservation of Shares.
From and after the date hereof, the Company shall at all times reserve for issuance such number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock (or other securities substituted therefor as herein above provided) as shall be sufficient for the Exercise of this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price. If at any time the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance is below the number of shares sufficient for the Exercise of this Warrant (a “Share Authorization Failure”) (based on the Exercise Price in effect from time to time), the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares, including calling a special meeting of stockholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company’s obligations under this Section 7, in the case of an insufficient number of authorized shares, and using its best efforts to obtain stockholder approval of an increase in such authorized number of shares. The Company covenants and agrees that upon the Exercise of this Warrant, all shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and not subject to preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or similar rights of any Person. The Company covenants and agrees that all shares of Common Stock issuable upon Exercise of this Warrant shall be approved for listing on the NasdaqGS, or, if the NasdaqGS is not the principal
16
trading market for the Common Stock, such principal market on which the Common Stock is traded or listed.
8. Restrictions on Transfer.
(a) Registration or Exemption Required. This Warrant has been issued in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 thereunder and exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state securities (or “blue sky”) laws. None of the Warrant, the Exercise Shares or Failure Payment Shares may be pledged, transferred, sold or assigned except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption to the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws, including Section 4(a)(7) of the Securities Act or a so-called “4[(a)](1) and a half” transaction.
(b) Assignment. Subject to Section 8(a), Holder may sell, transfer, assign, pledge, or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, in whole or in part. Holder shall deliver a written notice to the Company, substantially in the form of the Assignment attached hereto as Exhibit B, indicating the Person or Persons to whom the Warrant shall be assigned and the respective number of warrants to be assigned to each assignee. The Company shall effect the assignment within three (3) Business Days of its receipt of a completed and executed form of Assignment (the “Transfer Delivery Period”), and shall deliver to the assignee(s) designated by Holder a Warrant or Warrants of like tenor and terms entitling Holder to purchase the appropriate number of shares. This Warrant and the rights evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all Holders from time to time of this Warrant, and shall be enforceable by any such Holder. For avoidance of doubt, in the event Holder notifies the Company that such sale or transfer is a so called “4[(a)](1) and half” transaction, the parties hereto agree that a legal opinion from outside counsel for Holder delivered to counsel for the Company substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C shall be the only requirement to satisfy an exemption from registration under the Securities Act to effectuate such “4[(a)](1) and half” transaction.
9. Noncircumvention.
The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, and (ii) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.
10. Events of Failure; Definition of Black Scholes Value.
(a) Definition.
The occurrence of each of the following shall be considered to be an “Event of Failure.”
(i) A Delivery Failure occurs, where a “Delivery Failure” shall be deemed to have occurred if the Company fails to use its best efforts to deliver Exercise Shares to Holder within any applicable Delivery Period (other than due to the limitation contained in the second paragraph of Section 1);
17
(ii) A Legend Removal Failure occurs, where a “Legend Removal Failure” shall be deemed to have occurred if the Company fails to use its best efforts to issue this Warrant and/or Exercise Shares without a restrictive legend, or fails to use it best efforts to remove a restrictive legend, when and as required under Section 2(e) hereof;
(iii) a Transfer Delivery Failure occurs, where a “Transfer Delivery Failure” shall be deemed to have occurred if the Company fails to use its best efforts to deliver a Warrant within any applicable Transfer Delivery Period; and
(iv) a Registration Failure (as defined below).
For purpose hereof, “Registration Failure” means that (A) the Company fails to file with the SEC on or before the Filing Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) any Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a) of the Registration Rights Agreement, (B) the Company fails to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain effectiveness with the SEC, prior to the Registration Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), and if such Registration Statement does not become effective prior to the Registration Deadline, as soon as possible thereafter, of any Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) that is required to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a) of the Registration Rights Agreement, or fails to use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Registration Statement current and effective as required in Section 3 of the Registration Rights Agreement, (C) the Company fails to file any additional Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a)(ii) of the Registration Rights Agreement on or before the Additional Filing Deadline or fails to use its reasonable best efforts to cause such new Registration Statement to become effective on or before the Additional Registration Deadline, and if such effectiveness does not occur within such period, as soon as possible thereafter, (D) the Company fails to file any amendment to any Registration Statement, or any additional Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to Section 3(b) of the Registration Rights Agreement within thirty (30) days of the applicable Registration Trigger Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), or fails to use its reasonable best efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective within ninety (90) days of the applicable Registration Trigger Date, and, if such effectiveness does not occur within such period, as soon as possible thereafter, (E) any Registration Statement required to be filed under the Registration Rights Agreement, after its initial effectiveness and during the Registration Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), lapses in effect or, other than on a day during an Allowable Grace Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), sales of all of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) cannot otherwise be made thereunder (whether by reason of the Company’s failure to amend or supplement the prospectus included therein in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company’s failure to file and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain effectiveness with the SEC of an additional Registration Statement or amended Registration Statement required pursuant to Sections 2(a)(ii) or 3(b) of the Registration Rights Agreement, as applicable, or otherwise), or (F) the Company fails to provide a commercially reasonable written response to any comments to any Registration Statement submitted by the SEC within twenty-five (25) days of the date that such SEC comments are received by the Company.
(b) Failure Payments; Black-Scholes Determination. The Company understands that any Event of Failure (as defined above) could result in economic loss to Holder. In the event that any Event of Failure occurs, as compensation to Holder for such economic loss, the Company agrees to pay to Holder an amount payable, at the Company’s option, either (i) in cash or (ii) in shares of Common Stock that are valued for these purposes at the Volume Weighted Average Price on the date of such calculation (“Failure Payments” and such shares, “Failure Payment Shares”), in each case equal to the total economic loss of Holder determined on a commercially reasonable basis in connection with such Event of Failure for the relevant period (as recalculated on the first Business Day of each month thereafter for as long as Failure Payments shall continue to accrue) from the date of such Event of Failure until the Event of Failure is cured; provided, however, that in the event the Company elects to make Failure Payments in Failure Payment Shares, the Company shall issue, and Holder shall only receive, up to such number of shares of Common Stock in
18
respect of Failure Payments such that Holder and any other persons or entities whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including shares held by any “group” of which Holder is a member, but excluding shares beneficially owned by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities that have limitations on the right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein) shall not collectively beneficially own greater than 4.985% of the total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company then issued and outstanding, and the balance of such Failure Payments shall be paid in cash. For purposes of clarification, it is agreed and understood that Failure Payments shall continue to accrue following any Event of Default until the applicable Default Amount is paid in full. The Company shall satisfy any Failure Payments under this Section pursuant to Section 10(c) below. Failure Payments are in addition to any Shares that Holder is entitled to receive upon Exercise of this Warrant.
(c) Payment of Accrued Failure Payments. The Failure Payments and Failure Payment Shares representing accrued Failure Payments for each Event of Failure shall be paid or issued and delivered, as the case may be, on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day of each month following a month in which Failure Payments accrued. Nothing herein shall limit Holder’s right to pursue actual damages (to the extent in excess of the Failure Payments) for the Company’s Event of Failure, and Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief). Notwithstanding the above, if a particular Event of Failure results in an Event of Default pursuant to Section 11 hereof, then the Failure Payment, for that Event of Failure only, shall be considered to have been satisfied upon payment to Holder of an amount equal to the greater of (i) the Failure Payment, or (ii) the Default Amount, payable in accordance with Section 11.
(d) Maximum Interest Rate. Nothing contained herein or in any document referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest or dividends required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum permitted by such law, any payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited against amounts owed by the Company to Holder and thereby refunded to the Company.
11. Default.
(a) Events Of Default. Each of the following events shall be considered to be an “Event of Default,” unless waived by Holder:
(i) Failure To Effect Registration. With respect to all Registration Failures, a Registration Failure occurs and remains uncured for a period of more than forty-five (45) days (or sixty (60) days in the case where the Company (i) has, by the Filing Deadline (as defined the Registration Rights Agreement) filed a Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) covering this Warrant and the number of shares required by the Registration Rights Agreement, and (ii) has responded in writing to any comments to the Registration Statement that the Company has received from the SEC, within ten (10) Business Days of such receipt, and nevertheless the SEC has not declared effective a Registration Statement covering the this Warrant and the Shares by the Registration Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement)), and such Registration Failure relates solely to the Company’s failure to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the Registration Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) and with respect to a Registration Failure provided in clause (E) of the definition of “Registration Failure,” such Registration Failure occurs and remains uncured for a period of more than forty-five (45) days.
(ii) Failure To Deliver Common Stock. A Delivery Failure (as defined above) occurs and remains uncured for a period of more than twenty (20) days; or at any time, the Company announces or states in writing that
19
it will not honor its obligations to issue shares of Common Stock to Holder upon Exercise by Holder of the Exercise rights of Holder in accordance with the terms of this Warrant.
(iii) Legend Removal Failure. A Legend Removal Failure (as defined above) occurs and remains uncured for a period of twenty (20) days;
(iv) Transfer Delivery Failure. A Transfer Delivery Failure (as defined above) occurs and remains uncured for a period of twenty (20) days;
(v) Corporate Existence; Major Transaction. (A) The Company has failed to (1) place the Successor Major Transaction Consideration into escrow and instruct the escrow agent to release the Successor Major Transaction Consideration to the Holder pursuant to Section 5(b)(iii), or (2) obtain the written agreement of the Successor Entity and cause the Successor Entity to make payment as described in Section 5(b)(iii), (B) the Successor Major Transaction Consideration is not paid contemporaneously with the consummation of the Successor Major Transaction, or (C) with respect to a Major Transaction that is to be treated as an Assumption under the terms hereof, the Company has failed to meet the Assumption requirements of Section 5(b)(i); or
(vi) Section 13 Breach. During the Dividend Restriction Period, the Company declares or pays any dividend or distribution of any kind to the holders of Common Stock of the Company.
(b) Mandatory Early Termination.
(i) Mandatory Early Termination Amount; Cashless Default Exercise. The Company shall notify Holder in writing within two (2) Business Days of the occurrence of an Event of Default. If any Events of Default shall occur then, at the option of Holder, such option exercisable through the delivery of written notice to the Company by such Holder (the “Default Notice”), the Company shall have the right to terminate the outstanding amount of this Warrant and pay to Holder (a “Mandatory Early Termination”), in full satisfaction of its obligations hereunder by delivery of a notice to such effect to Holder within two (2) Business Days following receipt of the Default Notice, an amount payable in cash (the “Mandatory Early Termination Amount” or the “Default Amount”) equal to the Black-Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of such Default Notice (or in the case of an Event of Default referred to in Section 11(a)(vi), on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date the dividend or distribution is declared or, if not first declared, is paid). In the event the Company does not exercise its right to consummate a Mandatory Early Termination, then Holder shall have the right to exercise this Warrant, at any time and from time to time, pursuant to a Cashless Default Exercise in accordance with Section 3(c) above.
The Mandatory Early Termination Amount shall be payable within five (5) Business Days following the date of the applicable Default Notice.
(ii) Liquidated Damages. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the sums payable as Failure Payments or pursuant to a Mandatory Early Termination shall constitute partial liquidated damages and not penalties. The parties further acknowledge that (i) the amount of loss or damages likely to be incurred by Holder is incapable or is difficult to precisely estimate, (ii) the amounts specified bear a reasonable proportion and are not plainly or grossly disproportionate to the probable loss likely to be incurred by Holder, and (iii) the parties are sophisticated business parties and have been represented by sophisticated and able legal and financial counsel and negotiated this Agreement at arm’s length.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Default Amount, together with all other amounts payable hereunder, shall immediately become due and payable, all without demand, presentment or notice, all of
20
which hereby are expressly waived, together with all costs, including legal fees and expenses, of collection, and Holder shall be entitled to exercise all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.
(c) Posting Of Bond. In the event that any Event of Default occurs hereunder, the Company may not raise as a legal defense (in any Lawsuit, as defined below, or otherwise) or justification to such Event of Default any claim that such Holder or any one associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, unless the Company has posted a surety bond (a “Surety Bond”) for the benefit of such Holder in the amount of 130% of the aggregate Surety Bond Value (as defined below) of all of Holder’s Warrants (the “Bond Amount”), which Surety Bond shall remain in effect until the completion of litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent Holder obtains judgment.
For purposes hereof, a “Lawsuit” shall mean any lawsuit, arbitration or other dispute resolution filed by either party herein pertaining to any of this Warrant, the Facility Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or any other Loan Document (as defined in the Facility Agreement).
“Surety Bond Value,” for the Warrants shall mean 130% of the of the Black-Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date that such bond goes into effect.
(d) Injunction And Posting Of Bond. In the event that the Event of Default referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 11 pertains to the Company’s failure to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to Holder pursuant to a Warrant Exercise, legend removal request, or otherwise, the Company may not refuse such unlegended share delivery based on any claim that such Holder or any one associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, unless an injunction from a court, on prior notice to Holder, restraining and or enjoining Exercise of all or part of said Warrant shall have been sought and obtained by the Company and the Company has posted a Surety Bond for the benefit of such Holder in the amount of the Bond Amount, which Surety Bond shall remain in effect until the completion of litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent Holder obtains judgment.
(e) Remedies, Other Obligations, Breaches And Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant, the Facility Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and any other Loan Document, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of Holder to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach (including a breach or threatened breach of Section 13), the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
12. Holder’s Early Terminations.
(a) Mechanics of Holder’s Early Terminations. In the event that the Company does not deliver the applicable Successor Major Transaction Consideration or Default Amount or the Exercise Shares in respect of an election of a Successor Major Transaction Conversion, Cashless Major Exercise, Cashless Default or Exercise, as the case may be, to Holder within the time period or as otherwise required pursuant to the terms hereof, at any time thereafter Holder shall have the option, upon notice to the Company, in lieu of an election of a Successor Major Transaction Conversion, Cashless Major Exercise, Cashless Default Exercise
21
or Exercise, as the case may be, to require the Company to promptly return to Holder all or any portion of this Warrant that was submitted for election of a Successor Major Transaction Conversion, Cashless Major Exercise, Cashless Default Exercise or Exercise, as the case may be. Upon the Company’s receipt of such notice, (x) the applicable election of Successor Major Transaction Conversion, Cashless Major Exercise, Cashless Default Exercise or Exercise, as the case may be, shall be null and void with respect to such applicable portion of this Warrant, (y) the Company shall immediately return this Warrant, or issue a new Warrant to Holder representing the portion of this Warrant that was submitted for election of Successor Major Transaction Conversion, Cashless Major Exercise, Cashless Default Exercise or Exercise, as the case may be, and (z) the Exercise Price of this Warrant or such new Warrant shall be adjusted to the Exercise Price as in effect on the date on which the applicable election of Successor Major Transaction Conversion, Cashless Major Exercise, Cashless Default Exercise or Exercise, as the case may be, is voided. Holder’s delivery of a notice voiding an election of a Successor Major Transaction Conversion, Cashless Major Exercise, Cashless Default Exercise or Exercise, as the case may be, and exercise of its rights following such notice shall not affect the Company’s obligations to make any Failure Payments which have accrued prior to the date of such notice with respect to the Warrant subject to such notice.
13. Dividend Restrictions.
Until the earlier of the expiration of the Term and the date Holder Exercises this Warrant in full (the “Dividend Restriction Period”), the Company shall not declare or pay any dividend or distribution of any kind to the holders of Common Stock of the Company.
14. Benefits of this Warrant.

5
listed or quoted on the NasdaqGS or any other securities exchange or market, the term “Trading Day” shall mean a Business Day.
19. Exercise.
(a) Manner of Exercise. During the Exercise Period (or, in respect of a Cashless Major Exercise, the Cashless Major Exercise Period (as defined below)), this Warrant may be Exercised as to all or any lesser number of whole shares of Common Stock covered hereby (the “Warrant Shares” or the “Shares”) by sending to the Company the Exercise Form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1 (the “Exercise Form”) duly completed and executed, and, if applicable, the full Exercise Price (as defined below, which may be satisfied by a Cash Exercise, a Cashless Exercise or a Note Exchange Exercise, as each is defined below) for each share of Common Stock as to which this Warrant is Exercised, at the office of the Company, 2 Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, XX 00000, Attention: Chief Financial Officer; Phone: (000) 000-0000, Email: xxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate in writing, by overnight mail or electronic mail (any such exercise of the Warrant being hereinafter called an “Exercise” of this Warrant).
(b) Date of Exercise. The “Date of Exercise” of the Warrant shall, in each case, be the date that the Exercise Form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1, completed and executed, is sent by electronic mail to the Company, provided that the Exercise Price is satisfied as soon as practicable thereafter but in no event later than two (2) Business Days following the date of such electronic mail. Alternatively, the Date of Exercise shall be defined as the date the original Exercise Form is received by the Company, if Holder has not previously sent the Exercise Form by electronic mail. Upon delivery of the Exercise Form to the Company by electronic mail or otherwise, Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been Exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to Holder’s or its designee’s Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares, as the case may be; provided, however, that in the event an Exercise Form in respect of a Cashless Major Exercise is delivered prior to the occurrence of the applicable Major Transaction, Holder shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the shares issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the consummation of such Major Transaction and the Date of Exercise shall in such event be deemed to have occurred on the date of the occurrence of the Major Transaction. Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days following the date the final Exercise Form is delivered to the Company. Execution and delivery of an Exercise Form with respect to a partial Exercise shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares.
(c) Delivery of Common Stock Upon Exercise. Within the earlier of (x) two (2) Trading Days and (y) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period after any Date of Exercise (but, in the case of a Cash Exercise, within two (2) Business Days following the Company’s receipt of the full Exercise Price, if later) or in the case of a Cashless Default Exercise (as defined in Section 5(b) below), within the period provided in Section 3(c), as applicable (the “Delivery Period”), the Company shall issue and deliver (or cause its transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to issue and deliver) in accordance with the terms hereof to or upon the order of Holder that number of shares of Common Stock (“Exercise Shares”) for the portion of this Warrant exercised as shall be determined in accordance herewith. Upon the Exercise of this Warrant or any part hereof, the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all necessary action, including obtaining and delivering an opinion of counsel, to assure that the Transfer Agent shall issue stock certificates in the name of Holder (or its nominee) or such other persons as designated by Holder and in such denominations as Holder shall specify at Exercise, representing the number of shares of Common
6
Stock issuable upon such Exercise. The Company warrants that no instructions other than these instructions have been or will be given to the Transfer Agent and that, unless waived by Holder, this Warrant and the Exercise Shares will be free-trading, and freely transferable, and will not contain or be subject to a legend (or be subject to any stop transfer instruction) restricting the resale or transferability of the Exercise Shares if the Unrestricted Conditions (as defined below) are met.
The Company shall be responsible for paying all present or future stamp, court or documentary, intangible, recording, filing or similar taxes that arise from any payment or issuance made under, from the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, this Warrant.
(d) Delivery Failure. In addition to any other remedies which may be available to Holder, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Exercise Shares by the end of the Delivery Period (a “Delivery Failure”), Holder will be entitled to revoke all or part of the relevant Exercise by delivery of a notice to such effect to the Company whereupon the Company and Holder shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the delivery of such notice of revocation, except that the Failure Payments under Section 10(b) shall be payable through the date such notice of revocation is given to the Company.
(e) Legends.
(i) Restrictive Legend. Holder understands that until such time as this Warrant, the Exercise Shares and the Failure Payment Shares (as defined below) have been registered under the Securities Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, this Warrant, the Exercise Shares and the Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order consistent therewith may be placed against transfer of the certificates for such securities):
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT, EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SAID ACT INCLUDING PURSUANT TO SECTION 4(A)(7) OF THE SECURITIES ACT OR RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT OR PURSUANT TO A PRIVATE SALE EFFECTED UNDER APPLICABLE FORMAL OR INFORMAL SEC INTERPRETATION OR GUIDANCE, SUCH AS A SO-CALLED “4[(a)](1) AND A HALF” SALE.” NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.
“THE SALE, TRANSFER OR ASSIGNMENT OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF A CERTAIN AMENDED AND RESTATED REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT DATED AS OF AUGUST 9, 2018, AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, AMONG THE COMPANY AND CERTAIN HOLDERS OF ITS OUTSTANDING SECURITIES. COPIES OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED AT NO COST BY WRITTEN
7
REQUEST MADE BY THE HOLDER OF RECORD OF THIS CERTIFICATE TO THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.”
(ii) Removal of Restrictive Legends. This Warrant and the certificates (or electronic book entries, if applicable) evidencing the Exercise Shares and the Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, shall not contain or be subject to any legend restricting the transfer thereof (including the legend set forth above in subsection 2(e)(i)) or be subject to any stop-transfer instructions: (A) while a registration statement (including a Registration Statement, as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) covering the sale or resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act, or (B) following any sale of such Warrant, Exercise Shares and/or Failure Payment Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (C) if such Warrant, Exercise Shares and/or Failure Payment Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(b)(1), or (D) at any time on or after the date hereof on which Holder’s holding period for purposes of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and subsection (d)(3)(iii) thereof with respect to such Warrant, Exercise Shares and/or Failure Payment Shares is at least six (6) months and Holder certifies that it is not an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act), or (E) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the SEC) (collectively, the “Unrestricted Conditions”). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly after the Effective Date, or at such other time as any of the Unrestricted Conditions have been met, if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the issuance of this Warrant, the Exercise Shares or the Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, without a restrictive legend or removal of the legend hereunder. If any of the Unrestricted Conditions are met at the time of issuance of this Warrant, the Exercise Shares or the Failure Payment Shares, then such Warrant, Exercise Shares or Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, shall be issued free of all legends and stop-transfer instructions. The Company agrees that following the Effective Date, or at such time as the Unrestricted Conditions are met or such legend is otherwise no longer required under this Section 2(e), it will, no later than the earlier of (x) two (2) Trading Days and (y) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following the delivery (the “Unlegended Shares Delivery Deadline”) by Holder to the Company or the Transfer Agent of this Warrant and a certificate representing Exercise Shares and/or Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend, deliver or cause to be delivered to Holder this Warrant and/or a certificate (or electronic transfer) representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends (and stop transfer instructions). For purposes hereof, “Effective Date” shall mean the date that the first Registration Statement that the Company is required to file pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement has been declared effective by the SEC.
(iii) Sale of Unlegended Shares. Holder agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend from this Warrant and any certificates representing securities as set forth in Section 2(e) above is predicated upon the Company’s reliance that Holder will sell this Warrant or any Exercise Shares and/or any Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if such securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein.
(f) Cancellation of Warrant. This Warrant shall be canceled upon the full Exercise of this Warrant, and, as soon as practical after the Date of Exercise, Holder shall be entitled to receive Common Stock for the number of shares purchased upon such Exercise of this Warrant, and if this Warrant is not Exercised in full, Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant (containing terms identical to this Warrant) representing any unexercised portion of this Warrant in addition to such Common Stock; provided, however, as set forth in Section 2(b), Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this warrant if the Warrant is not Exercised in full.
8
(g) Holder of Record. Each person in whose name any Warrant for shares of Common Stock is issued shall, for all purposes, be deemed to be Holder of record of such shares on the Date of Exercise, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Common Stock purchased upon the Exercise of this Warrant. Prior to the exercise of this Warrant, nothing in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon Holder any rights as a stockholder of the Company.
(h) Delivery of Electronic Shares. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon Exercise or legend removal, or representing Failure Payment Shares, upon written request of Holder, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Transfer Agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon Exercise to Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s prime broker with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system. The time periods for delivery and penalties described herein shall apply to the electronic transmittals described herein. Any delivery not effected by electronic transmission shall be effected by delivery of physical certificates.
(i) Buy-In. In addition to any other rights or remedies available to Holder hereunder or otherwise at law or in equity, if the Company fails to cause its Transfer Agent to deliver to Holder a certificate or certificates, or electronic shares through DWAC, representing the Exercise Shares pursuant to an Exercise on or before the last day of the Delivery Period (other than a failure caused by any incorrect or incomplete information provided by Holder to the Company hereunder), and if after such date Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or Holder or Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by Holder of the Exercise Shares which Holder was entitled to receive upon such Exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (1) pay in cash to Holder the amount by which (x) Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Exercise Shares that the Company was required to deliver to Holder in connection with the Exercise at issue by (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (2) at the option of Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Exercise Shares for which such Exercise was not honored (and refund the Exercise Price therefor, to the extent paid by Holder, and/or reinstate the principal amount of any indebtedness used to satisfy the applicable Exercise Price) or deliver to Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its Exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted Exercise to cover the sale of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay Holder $1,000. Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to Holder in respect of the Buy-In, together with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested by the Company. Nothing herein shall limit Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon Exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
(j) HSR Submissions. If Holder determines that, in connection with the exercise of this Warrant, it and the Company are required to file Premerger Notification Reports with the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) and the United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) and observe the Waiting Period under the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the related rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “HSR Act”), the Company agrees to (i) cooperate with Holder in Holder’s preparing and making such submission and any responses to inquiries of the FTC and DOJ; (ii) prepare and make any submission required to be filed by the Company under the HSR Act and respond to inquiries of the FTC and DOJ in connection therewith; and (iii) reimburse Holder for the cost of the required filing fee for Holder’s submission under the HSR Act. For the avoidance of doubt, Holder shall
9
bear all of its other costs and expenses in connection with such submission, including any attorneys’ fees associated therewith.
20. Payment of Warrant Exercise Price for Cash Exercise or Cashless Exercise; Cashless Major Exercise and Cashless Default Exercise.
(a) Exercise Price. The exercise price shall initially equal $[ ]9 per share, subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms hereof (as so adjusted, the “Exercise Price”), including but not limited to Section 5 below.
Payment of the Exercise Price may be made by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of Holder:
(i) Cash Exercise: Holder may exercise this Warrant in cash, bank or cashier’s check or wire transfer (a “Cash Exercise”);
(ii) Cashless Exercise: In lieu of paying all or any portion of the Exercise Price in cash, Holder, at its option, may exercise this Warrant (in whole or in part) on a cashless basis by making appropriate notation on the applicable Exercise Form, in which event the Company shall issue Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):
X = Y (A-B)/A
where: X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder.
Y = the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is being Exercised.
A = the Market Price of one (1) share of Common Stock (for purposes of this Section 3(a)(ii), where “Market Price,” as of any date, means the arithmetic average of the Volume Weighted Average Price (as defined below) of the Company’s Common Stock on each of the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the date in question).
B = the Exercise Price.
As used herein, the “Volume Weighted Average Price” for any security as of any date means the volume weighted average sale price on the NasdaqGS as reported by, or based upon data reported by, Bloomberg Financial Markets or an equivalent, reliable reporting service mutually acceptable to and hereafter designated by the Holder and the Company (“Bloomberg”), or, if the NasdaqGS is not the principal trading market for such security, the volume weighted average sale price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no volume weighted average sale price is reported for such security, then the last closing trade price of such security as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no last closing trade price is reported for such security by Bloomberg, the average of the bid prices of any market makers for such security on the OTC Bulletin Board, the OTCQX Market, the OTCQB Market or the “pink” market of OTC Markets Group. If the Volume Weighted Average Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner provided above, the Volume Weighted Average Price shall be the fair market value as determined by the Company and the Holder. In the event that a Stock Event [Term is not defined. Do you want to reference the term as used in the Note?] is consummated during any period for which the arithmetic average of the Volume Weighted Average Prices is to be determined (under this Section or otherwise), the
9 | To be equal to the closing bid price on the trading day prior to signing. |
10
Volume Weighted Average Price for all Trading Days during such period prior to the effectiveness of the Stock Event shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such Stock Event.
(iii) Note Exchange Exercise: In lieu of paying all or any portion of the Exercise Price in cash, Holder, at its option, may exercise this Warrant (in whole or in part) through a reduction of an amount of principal outstanding under any First Out Waterfall Notes in accordance with Section 2.3(b) of the Facility Agreement, then held by Holder (a “Note Exchange Exercise”)
For purposes of Rule 144 and subsection (d)(3)(ii) thereof, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that (x) this Warrant shall be deemed to have been acquired on April 3, 2017 (the date the First Out Waterfall Notes were originally issued), and (y) the shares of Common Stock issuable upon Exercise of this Warrant in a Cashless Exercise (including a Cashless Major Exercise or Cashless Default Exercise) transaction or a Note Exchange Exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired on April 3, 2017. Accordingly, (A) upon any such Exercise, the Rule 144 holding period for the shares of Common Stock issued thereupon shall be in excess of one (1) year, and (B) provided that Holder is not an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of the Company on the date of such Exercise (which the Company shall assume unless advised otherwise in writing by Holder), an Unrestricted Condition shall be satisfied with respect to the shares of Common Stock issued thereupon and such shares will be freely transferable, without restriction or limitation (including any volume limitation or current public information requirement) under Federal or state securities laws, pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and will not contain or be subject to a legend or stop transfer order restricting the resale or transferability of thereof.
As provided in Section 2(b), Holder shall only be required to physically surrender this Warrant in the event that Holder is exercising this Warrant in full.
(b) Cashless Major Exercise. To the extent Holder shall exercise this Warrant as a Cashless Major Exercise pursuant to Section 5(b)(i) and 5(b)(iii) below, Holder shall send to the Company (in any manner permitted under Section 2(a)) the Exercise Form indicating that Holder is exercising this Warrant (or any portion thereof) pursuant to a Cashless Major Exercise, in which event the Company shall issue a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Black-Scholes Value of the Warrant (or such applicable portion being exercised) divided by the closing price of the Common Stock on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the applicable Major Transaction is consummated, or, if in respect of a Cashless Major Exercise made after the date of consummation of the applicable Major Transaction, on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the exercise form in respect of such Cashless Major Exercise is delivered. As provided in Section 2(b), Holder shall only be required to physically surrender this Warrant in the event that Holder is exercising this Warrant in full. Holder shall be permitted to make successive Cashless Major Exercises and send successive Exercise Forms in respect of a Cashless Major Exercise from time to time at any time during the Cashless Major Exercise Period.
(c) Cashless Default Exercise. To the extent Holder exercises this Warrant as a Cashless Default Exercise pursuant to Section 11(b)(i) below, Holder shall send to the Company (in any manner permitted under Section 2(a)) the Exercise Form indicating that Holder is exercising this Warrant pursuant to a Cashless Default Exercise, in which event the Company shall issue to Holder, within five (5) Trading Days of the applicable Default Notice, a number of shares of Common Stock (which shares shall be valued at the closing price of the Common Stock on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the Exercise Form in respect of such Cashless Default Exercise is delivered) equal to the Black-Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant (or such portion thereof subject to such exercise) as of the date of such Default Notice (or in the case of an Event of Default referred to in Section 11(a)(vi), on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date the dividend or distribution is declared or, if not first declared,
11
is paid). As provided in Section 2(b), the Holder shall be permitted to make successive Cashless Default Exercises and send successive Exercise Forms in respect of a Cashless Default Exercise, from time to time at any time from and after the date of the applicable Default Notice through the Exercise Period of this Warrant.
(b) Dispute Resolution. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the closing price or the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Company’s Common Stock or the arithmetic calculation of the Exercise Price, Market Price or the Successor Major Transaction Consideration, or the number of shares issuable upon a Cashless Major Exercise, the Company shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations via electronic mail within two (2) Business Days of receipt, or deemed receipt, of the Exercise Form or Major Transaction Early Termination Notice, or other event giving rise to such dispute, as the case may be, to Holder. If Holder and the Company are unable to agree upon such determination or calculation within two (2) Business Days of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to Holder, then the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days submit via electronic mail (i) the disputed determination of the closing price or the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Company’s Common Stock to an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Company and approved by Holder, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, or (ii) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Exercise Price, Market Price, any Successor Major Transaction Consideration or number of shares issuable upon a Cashless Major Exercise to the Company’s independent, outside registered public accountants. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the investment bank or the accountants, as the case may be, to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Company and Holder of the results no later than five (5) Trading Days from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment bank’s or accountants’ determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error, and the Company and Holder shall each pay one half of the fees and costs of such investment banker or accountant. Notwithstanding the existence of a dispute contemplated by this paragraph, if requested by Holder, the Company shall issue to Holder the Exercise Shares not in dispute in accordance with the terms hereof.
21. Transfer and Registration.
(a) Transfer Rights. Subject to the provisions of Section 8 of this Warrant, this Warrant may be transferred on the books of the Company, in whole or in part, in person or by attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant properly completed and endorsed. This Warrant shall be canceled upon such surrender and, as soon as practicable thereafter, the person to whom such transfer is made shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant or Warrants as to the portion of this Warrant transferred, and Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant as to the portion hereof retained.
(b) Registrable Securities. The Common Stock issuable upon the Exercise of this Warrant entitles Holder (and applicable assignees or transferees of such Common Stock) to registration and other rights pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement.
22. Adjustments Upon Certain Events.
(a) Recapitalization or Reclassification. If the Company shall at any time effect a stock split, payment of stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification or other similar transaction of such character that the shares of Common Stock shall be changed into or become exchangeable for a larger or smaller number of shares, then upon the effective date thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock which Holder shall be entitled to purchase upon Exercise of this Warrant, shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, in direct proportion to the increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock by reason of such stock split, payment of stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification or similar transaction, and the Exercise Price shall be, in the case of an increase in the number of shares, proportionally decreased and, in the case of
12
decrease in the number of shares, proportionally increased. The Company shall give Holder the same notice it provides to holders of Common Stock of any transaction described in this Section 5(a).
(b) Rights Upon Major Transaction.
(i) Major Transaction. In the event that a Major Transaction occurs, then (1) in the case of a Successor Major Transaction, Holder, at its option, may elect to cause the conversion of this Warrant (a “Successor Major Transaction Conversion”), in whole or in part, into the right to receive the Successor Major Transaction Consideration, upon consummation of the Major Transaction, and (2) in the case of all other Major Transactions, Holder shall have the right to exercise this Warrant (or any portion thereof), at any time and from time to time following the occurrence of such event, as a Cashless Major Exercise. In the event Holder shall not have exercised any of its rights under clauses (1) or (2) above within the applicable time periods set forth herein, then the Major Transaction shall be treated as an Assumption (as defined below) in accordance with Section 5(b)(ii) below unless Holder waives its rights under this Section 5(b) with respect to such Major Transaction. Each of the following events shall constitute a “Major Transaction”:
(A) a consolidation, merger, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, business combination or other similar event, (1) following which the holders of Common Stock immediately preceding such consolidation, merger, exchange, recapitalization, reorganization, combination or event either (a) no longer hold a majority of the shares of Common Stock or (b) no longer have the ability to elect a majority of the board of directors of the Company or (2) as a result of which shares of Common Stock shall be changed into (or the shares of Common Stock become entitled to receive) the same or a different number of shares of the same or another class or classes of stock or securities of the Company or another entity (collectively, a “Change of Control Transaction”);
(B) the sale or transfer, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of (I) all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole) to any Person other than a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company or (II) assets of the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole) for a purchase price equal to more than 50% of the Equity Value (as defined below) of the Company. For purposes of this clause (B), “Equity Value” shall mean (I) the product of (x) the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock on the date the Company delivers the Major Transaction Notice (defined below) multiplied by (y) the per share closing price of the Common Stock on such date on the NasdaqGS as reported by, or based upon data reported by, Bloomberg or, if the NasdaqGS is not the principal trading market for such security, the closing sale price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg;
(C) a purchase, tender or exchange offer made to the holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock, such that following such purchase, tender or exchange offer a Change of Control Transaction shall have occurred;
(D) the liquidation, bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or winding-up (or the occurrence of any analogous proceeding) affecting the Company;
13
(E) the shares of Common Stock cease to be listed, traded or publicly quoted on the NasdaqGS and are not promptly re-listed or requoted on the New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE American, the NASDAQ Global Market or the NASDAQ Capital Market; or
(F) the Common Stock ceases to be registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act.
(ii) Assumption. Any assumption of Company obligations under this paragraph shall be referred to herein as an “Assumption.” Unless otherwise provided in writing by Holder, the Company shall not consummate a Major Transaction in which the Company is not the surviving entity or as a result of which the Company has a new Parent Entity, unless (A) each Person acquiring the Company’s assets or Common Stock (or Parent Entity thereof, as applicable), or any other successor entity resulting from such Major Transaction (in each case, a “Successor Entity”), assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant, the Facility Agreement (but, other than with respect to the Company’s obligations pursuant to Section 5.1(e) and 5.1(p) of the Facility Agreement and the other provisions of the Facility Agreement that expressly survive the repayment of the Loans (which shall be assumed in any Assumption), only if there are outstanding Loans under the Facility Agreement immediately following the consummation of the Major Transaction) and the Registration Rights Agreement in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5(b)(ii) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Holder and approved by Holder prior to the consummation of such Major Transaction (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), including agreements to deliver to Holder in exchange for its Warrants a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to the Warrants, that, among other things, (1) is exercisable for the appropriate number of shares of the Successor Entity’s capital stock (without regard to the 4.985% Cap or any other restriction or limitation on exercise, provided that such instrument shall contain a limitation on exercise comparable to that contained in the second paragraph of Section 1 of this Warrant); (2) has an exercise price similar to the then-effective Exercise Price (taking into account any conversion or exchange ratio applicable to the Common Stock in the Major Transaction) and exercise price adjustment provisions similar to those in the Warrants; (3) entitles Holder to such additional securities or other consideration as Holder would be entitled pursuant to Section 5(b)(i) in connection with the Major Transaction; and (4) provides for registration rights similar to those provided by the Registration Rights Agreement, in each case reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and (B) the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) is a publicly traded corporation whose common stock is quoted on or listed for trading on an Eligible Market. For the avoidance of doubt, Holder’s reasonable satisfaction referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall be construed only to apply to confirmation that the warrant or other comparable security and registration rights agreement delivered to Holder upon an assumption hereunder shall conform to the requirements of this Section 5(b)(ii), and this Section 5(b)(ii) shall not be construed as granting consent or approval rights to Holder with respect to the terms of such Major Transaction or to permit Holder to demand any additional consideration in respect of this Warrant other than as provided herein. Upon the occurrence of any Major Transaction, any Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Major Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of the Major Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the Major Transaction, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants prior to such Major Transaction, such shares of publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity, as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. The provisions of this Section shall apply
14
similarly and equally to successive Major Transactions and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant other than any applicable beneficial ownership limitations.
(iii) Major Transaction Notice; Major Transaction Early Termination Right; Notice of Cashless Major Exercise. At least thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of any Major Transaction, but, in any event, within five (5) Trading Days following the first to occur of (x) the date of the public announcement of such Major Transaction if such announcement is made before 4:00 p.m., New York City time, or (y) the day following the public announcement of such Major Transaction if such announcement is made on and after 4:00 p.m., New York City time, the Company shall deliver written notice thereof via electronic mail and overnight courier to Holder (a “Major Transaction Notice”). At any time during the period beginning after Holder’s receipt of a Major Transaction Notice in respect of a Successor Major Transaction and ending five (5) Trading Days prior to the consummation of such Major Transaction (the “Early Termination Period”), Holder may elect a Successor Major Transaction Conversion by delivering written notice thereof (“Major Transaction Early Termination Notice”) to the Company, which Major Transaction Early Termination Notice shall indicate the portion of the Warrant (with reference to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a Cash Exercise of such portion, without regard to the 4.985% Cap) that Holder is electing to be treated as a Successor Major Transaction Conversion. The portion of this Warrant subject to early termination pursuant to this Section 5(b)(iii), shall be converted into the right to receive the Successor Major Transaction Consideration
To the extent Holder shall elect to effect a Cashless Major Exercise in respect of a Major Transaction, Holder shall deliver its Exercise Form in accordance with Section 3(b), at any time and from time to time following receipt by Holder of the Major Transaction Notice until the later of (x) the last day of the Exercise Period and (y) the one-year anniversary of the applicable Major Transaction (the “Cashless Major Exercise Period”). For the avoidance of doubt, Holder shall be permitted to make successive Cashless Major Exercises and send successive Exercise Forms in respect of a Cashless Major Exercise from time to time at any time during the Cashless Major Exercise Period.
(iv) Escrow; Payment of Successor Major Transaction Consideration. Following the receipt of a Major Transaction Early Termination Notice in respect of a Successor Major Transaction from Holder, the Company shall not effect a Successor Major Transaction with respect to which Holder has elected a Successor Major Transaction Conversion unless either (A) it obtains, as a condition precedent to such Major Transaction, the written agreement of the Successor Entity that payment of the Successor Major Transaction Consideration shall be made to Holder concurrently with consummation of such Successor Major Transaction, or (B) it shall place the Successor Major Transaction Consideration into an escrow account with an independent escrow agent, and shall instruct the escrow agent to deliver the Successor Major Transaction Consideration to Holder, concurrently with the consummation of the Major Transaction. Notwithstanding clauses (A) and (B) above, Holder shall be treated on a pari passu basis with, and shall not have priority to payments to, the holders of Common Stock in connection with a Major Transaction. For purposes of determining the amount required to be placed in escrow pursuant to the provisions of this subsection (iv) and without affecting the amount of the actual Successor Major Transaction Consideration, the calculation of the price referred to in clause (1) of the first column of Schedule 1 hereto with respect to Stock Price shall be determined based on the Closing Market Price (as defined on Schedule 1) of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date that the Successor Major Transaction Consideration is deposited with the escrow agent.
(v) Injunction. Following the receipt of a Major Transaction Early Termination Notice from Holder, in the event that the Company attempts to consummate a Successor Major Transaction without either (1) placing the Successor Major Transaction Consideration in escrow in accordance with subsection (iv) above, or (2) obtaining the written agreement of the Successor Entity as described in subsection (iv) above, Holder shall have the right to apply for an injunction in any state or federal court sitting in the City of New York,
15
borough of Manhattan to prevent the closing of such Major Transaction until the Successor Major Transaction Consideration is delivered to Holder.
An early termination required by this Section 5(b) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 12. To the extent an early termination required by this Section 5(b) is deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Warrant by the Company, such early termination shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5, until the Successor Major Transaction Consideration is paid in full, this Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part, by Holder into shares of Common Stock, or in the event the date of any Exercise is after the consummation of the Major Transaction, shares of publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity pursuant to Section 5(b). The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company’s early termination of any portion of the Warrant under this Section 5(b), Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for Holder. Accordingly, any premium due under this Section 5(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a commercially reasonable estimate of Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.
(c) Exercise Price Adjusted. As used in this Warrant, the term “Exercise Price” shall mean the purchase price per share specified in Section 3(a) of this Warrant, until the occurrence of an event stated in this Section 5 or otherwise set forth in this Warrant, and thereafter shall mean said price as adjusted from time to time in accordance with the provisions of said subsection. No adjustment made pursuant to any provision of this Section 5 shall have the net effect of increasing the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder or, except as expressly provided in Section 5(a), otherwise increasing the Exercise Price.
(d) Adjustments: Additional Shares, Securities or Assets. In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5 or otherwise, Holder shall, upon Exercise of this Warrant, become entitled to receive shares and/or other securities or assets (other than Common Stock) then, wherever appropriate, all references herein to shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to refer to and include such shares and/or other securities or assets; and thereafter the number of such shares and/or other securities or assets shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and upon terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions of this Section 5.
(e) Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Exercise Price and/or number or type of securities issuable upon Exercise is adjusted pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, the Company shall promptly mail to Holder a notice (an “Exercise Price Adjustment Notice”) setting forth the Exercise Price and/or number or type of securities issuable upon Exercise after such adjustment and setting forth a statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. The Company shall, upon the written request at any time of Holder, furnish to Holder a like Warrant setting forth (i) such adjustment or readjustment, (ii) the Exercise Price at the time in effect and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon Exercise of the Warrant. For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Company provides an Exercise Price Adjustment Notice pursuant to this Section 5(e), upon the occurrence of any event that leads to an adjustment of the Exercise Price, Holder would be entitled to receive a number of Exercise Shares based upon the new Exercise Price, as adjusted, for exercises occurring on or after the date of such adjustment, regardless of whether Holder accurately refers to the adjusted Exercise Price in the Exercise Form.
23. Fractional Interests.
No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issuable upon the Exercise of this Warrant, but on Exercise of this Warrant, Holder may purchase only a whole number of shares of Common Stock. If, on Exercise of this Warrant, Holder would be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock or a
16
right to acquire a fractional share of Common Stock, such fractional share shall be disregarded and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon Exercise shall be the next higher whole number of shares.
24. Reservation of Shares.
From and after the date hereof, the Company shall at all times reserve for issuance such number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock (or other securities substituted therefor as herein above provided) as shall be sufficient for the Exercise of this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price. If at any time the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance is below the number of shares sufficient for the Exercise of this Warrant (a “Share Authorization Failure”) (based on the Exercise Price in effect from time to time), the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares, including calling a special meeting of stockholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company’s obligations under this Section 7, in the case of an insufficient number of authorized shares, and using its best efforts to obtain stockholder approval of an increase in such authorized number of shares. The Company covenants and agrees that upon the Exercise of this Warrant, all shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and not subject to preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or similar rights of any Person. The Company covenants and agrees that all shares of Common Stock issuable upon Exercise of this Warrant shall be approved for listing on the NasdaqGS, or, if the NasdaqGS is not the principal trading market for the Common Stock, such principal market on which the Common Stock is traded or listed.
25. Restrictions on Transfer.
(a) Registration or Exemption Required. This Warrant has been issued in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 thereunder and exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state securities (or “blue sky”) laws. None of the Warrant, the Exercise Shares or Failure Payment Shares may be pledged, transferred, sold or assigned except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption to the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws, including Rule 144 under the Securities Act, Section 4(a)(7) of the Securities Act or a so-called “4[(a)](1) and a half” transaction.
(b) Assignment. Subject to Section 8(a), Holder may sell, transfer, assign, pledge, or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, in whole or in part. Holder shall deliver a written notice to the Company, substantially in the form of the Assignment attached hereto as Exhibit B, indicating the Person or Persons to whom the Warrant shall be assigned and the respective number of warrants to be assigned to each assignee. The Company shall effect the assignment within three (3) Business Days of its receipt of a completed and executed form of Assignment (the “Transfer Delivery Period”), and shall deliver to the assignee(s) designated by Holder a Warrant or Warrants of like tenor and terms entitling Holder to purchase the appropriate number of shares. This Warrant and the rights evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all Holders from time to time of this Warrant, and shall be enforceable by any such Holder. For avoidance of doubt, in the event Holder notifies the Company that such sale or transfer is a so called “4[(a)](1) and half” transaction, the parties hereto agree that a legal opinion from outside counsel for Holder delivered to counsel for the Company substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C shall be the only requirement to satisfy an exemption from registration under the Securities Act to effectuate such “4[(a)](1) and half” transaction.
17
26. Noncircumvention.
The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, and (ii) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.
27. Events of Failure; Definition of Black Scholes Value.
(a) Definition.
The occurrence of each of the following shall be considered to be an “Event of Failure.”
(i) A Delivery Failure occurs, where a “Delivery Failure” shall be deemed to have occurred if the Company fails to use its best efforts to deliver Exercise Shares to Holder within any applicable Delivery Period (other than due to the limitation contained in the second paragraph of Section 1);
(ii) A Legend Removal Failure occurs, where a “Legend Removal Failure” shall be deemed to have occurred if the Company fails to use its best efforts to issue this Warrant and/or Exercise Shares without a restrictive legend, or fails to use it best efforts to remove a restrictive legend, when and as required under Section 2(e) hereof;
(iii) a Transfer Delivery Failure occurs, where a “Transfer Delivery Failure” shall be deemed to have occurred if the Company fails to use its best efforts to deliver a Warrant within any applicable Transfer Delivery Period; and
(iv) a Registration Failure (as defined below).
For purpose hereof, “Registration Failure” means that (A) the Company fails to file with the SEC on or before the Additional Warrant Filing Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) any Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a) of the Registration Rights Agreement, (B) the Company fails to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain effectiveness with the SEC, prior to the Additional Warrant Registration Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), and if such Registration Statement does not become effective prior to the Additional Warrant Registration Deadline, as soon as possible thereafter, of any Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) that is required to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a) of the Registration Rights Agreement, or fails to use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Registration Statement current and effective as required in Section 3 of the Registration Rights Agreement, (C) the Company fails to file any additional Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a)(ii) of the Registration Rights Agreement on or before the Additional Filing Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) or fails to use its reasonable best efforts to cause such new Registration Statement to become effective on or before the Additional Registration Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), and if such effectiveness does not occur within such period, as soon as possible thereafter, (D) the Company fails to file any amendment to any Registration Statement, or any additional Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to Section 3(b) of the Registration Rights Agreement within thirty (30) days of the applicable Registration Trigger Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), or fails to use its reasonable best efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective within ninety (90) days of the applicable Registration Trigger Date, and, if such effectiveness does not occur within such period, as
18
soon as possible thereafter, (E) any Registration Statement required to be filed under the Registration Rights Agreement, after its initial effectiveness and during the applicable Registration Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), lapses in effect or, other than on a day during an Allowable Grace Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), sales of all of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) cannot otherwise be made thereunder (whether by reason of the Company’s failure to amend or supplement the prospectus included therein in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company’s failure to file and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain effectiveness with the SEC of an additional Registration Statement or amended Registration Statement required pursuant to Section 2(a)(ii) or 3(b) of the Registration Rights Agreement, as applicable, or otherwise), or (F) the Company fails to provide a commercially reasonable written response to any comments to any Registration Statement submitted by the SEC within twenty-five (25) days of the date that such SEC comments are received by the Company.
(b) Failure Payments; Black-Scholes Determination. The Company understands that any Event of Failure (as defined above) could result in economic loss to Holder. In the event that any Event of Failure occurs, as compensation to Holder for such economic loss, the Company agrees to pay to Holder an amount payable, at the Company’s option, either (i) in cash or (ii) in shares of Common Stock that are valued for these purposes at the Volume Weighted Average Price on the date of such calculation (“Failure Payments” and such shares, “Failure Payment Shares”), in each case equal to the total economic loss of Holder determined on a commercially reasonable basis in connection with such Event of Failure for the relevant period (as recalculated on the first Business Day of each month thereafter for as long as Failure Payments shall continue to accrue) from the date of such Event of Failure until the Event of Failure is cured; provided, however, that in the event the Company elects to make Failure Payments in Failure Payment Shares, the Company shall issue, and Holder shall only receive, up to such number of shares of Common Stock in respect of Failure Payments such that Holder and any other persons or entities whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including shares held by any “group” of which Holder is a member, but excluding shares beneficially owned by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities that have limitations on the right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein) shall not collectively beneficially own greater than 4.985% of the total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company then issued and outstanding, and the balance of such Failure Payments shall be paid in cash. For purposes of clarification, it is agreed and understood that Failure Payments shall continue to accrue following any Event of Default until the applicable Default Amount is paid in full. The Company shall satisfy any Failure Payments under this Section pursuant to Section 10(c) below. Failure Payments are in addition to any Shares that Holder is entitled to receive upon Exercise of this Warrant.
(c) Payment of Accrued Failure Payments. The Failure Payments and Failure Payment Shares representing accrued Failure Payments for each Event of Failure shall be paid or issued and delivered, as the case may be, on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day of each month following a month in which Failure Payments accrued. Nothing herein shall limit Holder’s right to pursue actual damages (to the extent in excess of the Failure Payments) for the Company’s Event of Failure, and Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief). Notwithstanding the above, if a particular Event of Failure results in an Event of Default pursuant to Section 11 hereof, then the Failure Payment, for that Event of Failure only, shall be considered to have been satisfied upon payment to Holder of an amount equal to the greater of (i) the Failure Payment, or (ii) the Default Amount, payable in accordance with Section 11.
(d) Maximum Interest Rate. Nothing contained herein or in any document referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest or dividends required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum permitted by such law, any payments
19
in excess of such maximum shall be credited against amounts owed by the Company to Holder and thereby refunded to the Company.
28. Default.
(a) Events Of Default. Each of the following events shall be considered to be an “Event of Default,” unless waived by Holder:
(i) Failure To Effect Registration. With respect to all Registration Failures, a Registration Failure occurs and remains uncured for a period of more than forty-five (45) days (or sixty (60) days in the case where the Company (i) has, by the Filing Deadline (as defined the Registration Rights Agreement) filed a Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) covering this Warrant and the number of shares required by the Registration Rights Agreement, and (ii) has responded in writing to any comments to the Registration Statement that the Company has received from the SEC, within ten (10) Business Days of such receipt, and nevertheless the SEC has not declared effective a Registration Statement covering the this Warrant and the Shares by the Registration Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement)), and such Registration Failure relates solely to the Company’s failure to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the Registration Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) and with respect to a Registration Failure provided in clause (E) of the definition of “Registration Failure,” such Registration Failure occurs and remains uncured for a period of more than forty-five (45) days.
(ii) Failure To Deliver Common Stock. A Delivery Failure (as defined above) occurs and remains uncured for a period of more than twenty (20) days; or at any time, the Company announces or states in writing that it will not honor its obligations to issue shares of Common Stock to Holder upon Exercise by Holder of the Exercise rights of Holder in accordance with the terms of this Warrant.
(iii) Legend Removal Failure. A Legend Removal Failure (as defined above) occurs and remains uncured for a period of twenty (20) days;
(iv) Transfer Delivery Failure. A Transfer Delivery Failure (as defined above) occurs and remains uncured for a period of twenty (20) days;
(v) Corporate Existence; Major Transaction. (A) The Company has failed to (1) place the Successor Major Transaction Consideration into escrow and instruct the escrow agent to release the Successor Major Transaction Consideration to the Holder pursuant to Section 5(b)(iii), or (2) obtain the written agreement of the Successor Entity and cause the Successor Entity to make payment as described in Section 5(b)(iii), (B) the Successor Major Transaction Consideration is not paid contemporaneously with the consummation of the Successor Major Transaction, or (C) with respect to a Major Transaction that is to be treated as an Assumption under the terms hereof, the Company has failed to meet the Assumption requirements of Section 5(b)(i); or
(vi) Section 13 Breach. During the Dividend Restriction Period, the Company declares or pays any dividend or distribution of any kind to the holders of Common Stock of the Company.
(b) Mandatory Early Termination.
(i) Mandatory Early Termination Amount; Cashless Default Exercise. The Company shall notify Holder in writing within two (2) Business Days of the occurrence of an Event of Default. If any Events of Default shall occur then, at the option of Holder, such option exercisable through the delivery of written notice to the Company by such Holder (the “Default Notice”), the Company shall have the right to terminate the outstanding amount of this Warrant and pay to Holder (a “Mandatory Early Termination”), in full
20
satisfaction of its obligations hereunder by delivery of a notice to such effect to Holder within two (2) Business Days following receipt of the Default Notice, an amount payable in cash (the “Mandatory Early Termination Amount” or the “Default Amount”) equal to the Black-Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of such Default Notice (or in the case of an Event of Default referred to in Section 11(a)(vi), on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date the dividend or distribution is declared or, if not first declared, is paid). In the event the Company does not exercise its right to consummate a Mandatory Early Termination, then Holder shall have the right to exercise this Warrant, at any time and from time to time, pursuant to a Cashless Default Exercise in accordance with Section 3(c) above.
The Mandatory Early Termination Amount shall be payable within five (5) Business Days following the date of the applicable Default Notice.
(ii) Liquidated Damages. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the sums payable as Failure Payments or pursuant to a Mandatory Early Termination shall constitute partial liquidated damages and not penalties. The parties further acknowledge that (i) the amount of loss or damages likely to be incurred by Holder is incapable or is difficult to precisely estimate, (ii) the amounts specified bear a reasonable proportion and are not plainly or grossly disproportionate to the probable loss likely to be incurred by Holder, and (iii) the parties are sophisticated business parties and have been represented by sophisticated and able legal and financial counsel and negotiated this agreement at arm’s length.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Default Amount, together with all other amounts payable hereunder, shall immediately become due and payable, all without demand, presentment or notice, all of which hereby are expressly waived, together with all costs, including legal fees and expenses, of collection, and Holder shall be entitled to exercise all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.
(c) Posting Of Bond. In the event that any Event of Default occurs hereunder, the Company may not raise as a legal defense (in any Lawsuit, as defined below, or otherwise) or justification to such Event of Default any claim that such Holder or any one associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, unless the Company has posted a surety bond (a “Surety Bond”) for the benefit of such Holder in the amount of 130% of the aggregate Surety Bond Value (as defined below) of all of Holder’s Warrants (the “Bond Amount”), which Surety Bond shall remain in effect until the completion of litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent Holder obtains judgment.
For purposes hereof, a “Lawsuit” shall mean any lawsuit, arbitration or other dispute resolution filed by either party herein pertaining to any of this Warrant, the Facility Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or any other Loan Document (as defined in the Facility Agreement).
“Surety Bond Value,” for the Warrants shall mean 130% of the of the Black-Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date that such bond goes into effect.
(d) Injunction And Posting Of Bond. In the event that the Event of Default referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 11 pertains to the Company’s failure to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to Holder pursuant to a Warrant Exercise, legend removal request, or otherwise, the Company may not refuse such unlegended share delivery based on any claim that such Holder or any one associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, unless an injunction from a court, on prior notice to Holder, restraining and or enjoining Exercise of all or part of said Warrant shall have been sought and obtained by the Company and the Company has posted a Surety Bond for the benefit of such Holder in the amount of the Bond Amount, which Surety Bond shall remain in effect until the completion of litigation of
21
the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent Holder obtains judgment.
(e) Remedies, Other Obligations, Breaches And Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant, the Facility Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and any other Loan Document, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of Holder to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach (including a breach or threatened breach of Section 13), the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
29. Holder’s Early Terminations.
(a) Mechanics of Holder’s Early Terminations.

(each individually, a “Lender” and together, the “Lenders”).
WHEREAS:
A. In connection with the Facility Agreement, dated as of April 3, 2017, by and among the Company, the Lenders, Deerfield International Master Fund, L.P. (the “Prior Lender”), the other Loan Parties (as defined therein) and Deerfield Private Design Fund IV, L.P., as agent for itself and the other Lenders (as the same has heretofore been amended, modified, restated or otherwise supplemented, the “Existing Facility Agreement”), (i) the Company issued the Initial Warrants (as defined in the Amended Facility Agreement (as defined below)) to the Lenders in the amounts described in the Existing Facility Agreement, each of which Initial Warrants is exercisable into shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”); and
B. In connection with the Facility Agreement, the Company, the Lenders and the Prior Lender executed and delivered that certain Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of April 3, 2017 (the “Existing Registration Rights Agreement”).
C. Pursuant to the Existing Registration Rights Agreement, the Company filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) a Registration Statement (File No. 333-217602) on Form S-3, which registered the resale of an aggregate of 6,470,000 Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Initial Warrants and was declared effective by the SEC as of May 22, 2017 (the “Existing Registration Statement”). On May 22, 2017, pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act (as defined below), the Company filed a final prospectus as part of the Existing Registration Statement (the “Initial Prospectus”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Existing Registration Statements and the Initial Prospectus constitute a Registration Statement and Prospectus (each as defined in this Agreement), respectively, under this Agreement.
D. Effective as of January 1, 2018, the Prior Lender transferred and assigned its Initial Warrants and its rights under the Existing Registration Rights Agreement to Deerfield Partners, L.P. (the “Warrant Transfer”).
F. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the Company, the Lenders, the other Loan Parties (as defined therein) and Deerfield Private Design Fund IV, L.P., as agent for itself and the other Lenders, are entering into an Amended and Restated Facility Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as the same may hereafter be amended, modified, restated or otherwise supplemented from time to time, the “Amended Facility Agreement”), which amends and restates the Existing Facility Agreement in its entirety. All capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Amended Facility Agreement.
G. The Amended Facility Agreement, among other things, provides for the issuance of the Additional Warrants (as defined in the Amended Facility Agreement).
H. The parties hereto desire to amend and restate the Existing Registration Rights Agreement to provide for
17
certain changes relating to the issuance of the Additional Warrants.
I. To induce the Lenders to execute and deliver the Amended Facility Agreement, the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, or any similar successor statute (collectively, the “Securities Act”), and applicable state securities laws.

2. REGISTRATION.
a. MANDATORY REGISTRATION. (i) Following the Agreement Date, the Company shall prepare, and, on or prior to the applicable Filing Deadline, file with the SEC a Registration Statement (the “Mandatory Registration Statement”) on Form S-3 (or, if Form S-3 is not then available, on such form of Registration Statement as is then available to effect a registration of the Registrable Securities, subject to the consent of the Investors, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities that are not at that time covered by the Existing Registration Statement (as then in effect and available for resale of the Registrable Securities covered thereby), which Registration Statement, to the extent allowable under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (including Rule 416), shall state that such Registration Statement also covers such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock as may become issuable upon exercise of or otherwise pursuant to the Warrants or the Warrant Shares to prevent dilution resulting from stock splits, stock dividends, stock
19
issuances or similar transactions. The number of shares of Common Stock initially included in such Registration Statement shall be no less than the aggregate number of Warrant Shares that are then issuable upon exercise of or otherwise pursuant to the Warrants, without regard to any limitations on the Investors’ ability to exercise the Warrants. Each Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each request for acceleration of effectiveness thereof) shall be provided to (and shall be subject to the approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, of) the Investors and their counsel prior to its filing or other submission.
(ii) If for any reason, despite the Company’s use of its best efforts to include all of the Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 (a)(i) above (and subject to Section 3(q) below), the SEC does not permit all such Registrable Securities to be included in such Registration Statement, or for any other reason any Registrable Securities are not then included in a Registration Statement (including the Existing Registration Statement), then the Company shall prepare, and, as soon as practicable but in no event later than the Additional Filing Deadline, file with the SEC an additional Registration Statement covering the resale of all Registrable Securities not already covered by an existing and effective Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415.
(iii) Unless the SEC does not so permit or otherwise directed by the Buyers, each Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2(a) or Section 3(b) shall include a combined prospectus for the resale of the Registrable Securities registered by such Registration Statement, the Existing Registration Statement and any other Registration Statement previously filed hereunder, and shall be deemed a post-effective amendment to the Existing Registration Statement or, other previously filed Registration Statement in accordance with Rule 429 under the Securities Act.
b. PIGGY-BACK REGISTRATIONS. If at any time prior to the expiration of the Registration Period (as hereinafter defined) the Company shall determine (i) to file with the SEC a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to an offering for its own account or for the account of any other holder of its equity securities (other than securities being registered on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans), and/or (ii) otherwise to effect an underwritten offering of any securities of the Company of a type included in a then effective Registration Statement, the Company shall send to each Investor written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen (15) days after the effective date of such notice, the Investor shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such Registration Statement and/or include in such underwritten offering, as applicable, all or any part of such Investor’s Registrable Securities that the Investor requests to be registered and/or included in the underwritten offering, as applicable, except that if, in connection with any underwritten offering for the account of the Company, the managing underwriter(s) thereof shall impose a limitation on the number of Registrable Securities which may be included in such offering because, in such underwriter(s)’ judgment, marketing or other factors dictate such limitation is necessary to facilitate public distribution, then the Company shall be obligated to include in such underwritten offering only such limited portion of the Registrable Securities with respect to which the Investor has requested inclusion hereunder as the underwriter(s) shall permit;
provided, however, that the Company shall not exclude any Registrable Securities unless the Company has first excluded all outstanding securities to be sold for the accounts of any holders of the Company’s equity securities which are not entitled by contract to inclusion of such securities in an underwritten offering or are not entitled to pro rata inclusion with the Registrable Securities; and
provided, further, however, that, after giving effect to the immediately preceding proviso, any exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be made pro rata with holders of other securities having the contractual right to include such securities in such underwritten offering other than holders of securities entitled to inclusion of
20
their securities in such underwritten offering by reason of demand registration rights. No right to registration of Registrable Securities under this Section 2(b) shall be construed to limit any registration required under Section 2(a) hereof. If an Investor’s Registrable Securities are included in an underwritten offering pursuant to this Section 2(b), then such Investor shall, unless otherwise agreed by the Company, offer and sell such Registrable Securities in such underwritten offering using the same underwriter or underwriters and, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, on the same terms and conditions as other shares of Common Stock included in such underwritten offering. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the rights of the Investors pursuant to this Section 2(b) shall only be available in the case of an underwritten offering or in the event the Company fails to timely file, obtain effectiveness or maintain effectiveness of any Registration Statement to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a) or Section 3(b) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
3. OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. In connection with any registration of the Registrable Securities hereunder, the Company shall have the following obligations:
a. The Company shall prepare promptly, and file with the SEC as soon as practicable after such registration obligation arises hereunder (but in no event later than the applicable Filing Deadline), a Registration Statement with respect to the Registrable Securities as provided in Section 2(a), and thereafter use its reasonable best efforts to cause each such Registration Statement relating to Registrable Securities to become effective as soon as possible after such filing, but in any event shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause each such Registration Statement relating to Registrable Securities to become effective no later than the Registration Deadline, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep each of such Registration Statement and the Existing Registration Statement current and effective pursuant to Rule 415 at all times after its effective date until such date as is the earlier of (i) the date on which all of the Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement have been sold and (ii) assuming all of the Warrants will be exercised pursuant to Cash Exercises (as defined in the Warrants), the date on which all of the Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in the opinion of counsel to the Investors) may be immediately sold to the public without registration or restriction (including without limitation as to volume by each holder thereof), and without compliance with any “current public information” requirement, pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (the “Registration Period”), which Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein), except for information provided in writing by an Investor pursuant to Section 4(a), shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. In the event that Form S-3 is not available for the registration of the resale of any Registrable Securities hereunder (but, for the avoidance of doubt, without in any way affecting the Company’s obligation to register the resale of the Registrable Securities on such other form as is available, as provided in Section 2(a)), (i) the Company shall undertake to file, within twenty (20) days of such time as such form is available for such registration, a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement then in effect, or otherwise file a Registration Statement on Form S-3, registering such Registrable Securities on Form S-3; provided that the Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement then in effect until such time as a Registration Statement (or post-effective amendment) on Form S-3 covering such Registrable Securities has been declared effective by the SEC, and (ii) the Company shall provide that any Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed hereunder shall incorporate documents by reference (including by way of forward incorporation by reference) to the maximum extent possible.
b. The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to each Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with each Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep each Registration Statement current and effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during the Registration Period, shall comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company
21
covered by each Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement. Without limiting the foregoing, no later than August 17, 2018, the Company shall file with the SEC a prospectus supplement that supplements the Initial Prospectus with such information as shall be necessary to reflect the Warrant Transfer (including to provide that Deerfield Partners, L.P. may resell the Registrable Securities underlying the Initial Warrants pursuant to the Existing Registration Statement and the Initial Prospectus) and the transactions contemplated by the Amended Facility Agreement, to include updated information with respect to the Lenders to the extent provided by the Lenders in accordance with this Agreement and to include such other information as may be necessary to enable the Existing Registration Statement to be used for resales of all of the Registrable Securities covered thereby. In the event that on any Trading Day (as defined below) (the “Registration Trigger Date”) the number of shares available under the Registration Statements filed pursuant to this Agreement is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities issued or issuable upon exercise of or otherwise pursuant to the Warrants, including any additional shares of Common Stock issued in connection with any anti-dilution provisions contained in the Warrants, without giving effect to any limitations on the Investors’ ability to exercise the Warrants, the Company shall amend the Registration Statements, or file a new Registration Statement (on the short form available therefor, if applicable), or both, so as to cover the total number of Registrable Securities so issued or issuable (without giving effect to any limitations on exercise contained in the Warrants) as of the Registration Trigger Date as soon as practicable, but in any event within twenty (20) days after the Registration Trigger Date. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof, but in any event the Company shall cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective within sixty (60) days of the Registration Trigger Date or as promptly as practicable in the event the Company is required to increase its authorized shares. “Trading Day” shall mean any day on which the Common Stock is traded for any period on the NASDAQ Global Select Market (the “NasdaqGS”), or if not the NasdaqGS, the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded.
c. The Company shall furnish to each Investor and its legal counsel (i) promptly after the same is prepared and publicly distributed, filed with the SEC or received by the Company, one copy of each Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, each preliminary prospectus and prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto, and, each letter written by or on behalf of the Company to the SEC or the staff of the SEC, and each item of correspondence from the SEC or the staff of the SEC, in each case relating to such Registration Statement (other than any portion of any thereof which contains information for which the Company has sought or intends to seek confidential treatment, which contains or reflects any material non-public information with respect to the Company or its securities or which relates to Company matters that are in the reasonable judgment of the Company not relevant to the Investor’s interests with respect to the Registrable Securities), and (ii) such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, and all amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents as an Investor may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Investor; provided that the Company may determine in its reasonable judgment to provide any such copies in electronic form only. The Company will promptly notify each of the Investors by electronic mail of the effectiveness of each Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment. The Company will promptly respond to any and all comments received from the SEC, with a view towards causing each Registration Statement or any amendment thereto (including any post-effective amendment to the Existing Registration Statement) to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable and, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than three (3) business days, following the resolution or clearance of all SEC comments or, if applicable, following notification by the SEC that any such Registration Statement or any amendment thereto will not be subject to review, shall file a request for acceleration of effectiveness of such Registration Statement to a time and date not later than two (2) business days after the submission of such request. No later than the first business day after such Registration Statement becomes effective, the
22
Company will file with the SEC the final prospectus included therein pursuant to Rule 424 (or successor thereto) under the Securities Act.
d. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) register and qualify, in any jurisdiction where registration and/or qualification is required, the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statements under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Investors shall reasonably request, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be reasonably necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(d), (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.
e. As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, the Company shall notify each Investor that holds Registrable Securities of the happening of any event, of which the Company has knowledge, as a result of which the prospectus included in any Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to any Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver such number of copies of such supplement or amendment to each Investor as such Investor may reasonably request.
f. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of any Registration Statement, and, if such an order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the earliest possible moment and to notify each Investor that holds Registrable Securities (and, in the event of an underwritten offering, the managing underwriters) of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof.
g. The Company shall permit a single firm of counsel designated by the Investors (“Legal Counsel”) to review such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (as well as all requests for acceleration or effectiveness thereof), a reasonable period of time prior to their filing with the SEC (not less than five (5) business days but not more than eight (8) business days) and not file any documents in a form to which Legal Counsel reasonably objects and will not request acceleration of such Registration Statement without prior notice to Legal Counsel.
h. The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning an Investor provided to the Company unless (i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws, (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement, (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction, or (iv) such information has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this or any other agreement. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning any Investor is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to such Investor prior to making such disclosure, and allow such Investor, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information.
i. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all the Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement to be listed on each securities exchange on which securities of the same class or
23
series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange, and, to arrange for at least two market makers to register with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) as such with respect to such Registrable Securities.
j. The Company shall provide a transfer agent and registrar, which may be a single entity, for the Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of the initial Registration Statement.
k. The Company shall cooperate with each Investor that holds Registrable Securities being offered and the managing underwriter or underwriters with respect to an applicable Registration Statement, if any, to facilitate the timely (i) preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legends) representing Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to such Registration Statement, and enable such certificates to be registered in such names and in such denominations or amounts, as the case may be, or (ii) crediting of the Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to a Registration Statement to the applicable account (or accounts) with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian (DWAC) system, in any such case as such Investor or the managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, may reasonably request. Within three (3) business days after a Registration Statement which includes Registrable Securities becomes effective, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for the Registrable Securities (with copies to each Investor) an appropriate instruction and an opinion of such counsel in the form required by the transfer agent in order to issue the Registrable Securities free of restrictive legends.
l. At the reasonable request of an Investor, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to a Registration Statement and any prospectus used in connection with the Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to change the plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement.
m. The Company shall not, and shall not agree to, allow the holders of any securities of the Company to include any of their securities (other than Registrable Securities) in any Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(a) or Section 3(b) hereof or any amendment or supplement thereto under Section 3(b) hereof without the consent of Investors holding a majority-in-interest of the then outstanding Registrable Securities. In addition, the Company shall not include any securities for its own account or the account of others in any Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(a) or Section 3(b) hereof or any amendment or supplement thereto filed pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof without the consent of Investors holding a majority-in-interest of the then outstanding Registrable Securities.
n. Reserved.
o. The Company shall comply with all applicable laws related to a Registration Statement and offering and sale of securities and all applicable rules and regulations of governmental authorities in connection therewith (including the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC).
p. If required by the FINRA Corporate Financing Department, the Company shall promptly effect a filing with FINRA pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110 (or successor thereto) with respect to the public offering contemplated by resales of securities under the Registration Statement (an “Issuer Filing”), and pay the filing fee required by such Issuer Filing. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to pursue the Issuer Filing until FINRA issues a letter confirming that it does not object to the terms of the offering contemplated by the Registration Statement.
q. If at any time the SEC advises the Company in writing that the offering of some or all of the Registrable
24
Securities in a Registration Statement is not eligible to be made on a delayed or continuous basis under the provisions of Rule 415 under the Securities Act, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to persuade the SEC that the offering contemplated by a Registration Statement is a bona fide secondary offering and not an offering “by or on behalf of the issuer” as defined in Rule 415 and that none of the Investors is an “underwriter.” The Investors shall have the right to participate or have their respective counsel participate in any meetings or discussions with the SEC regarding the SEC’s position and to comment or have their respective counsel comment on any written submission made to the SEC with respect thereto. No such written submission shall be made to the SEC to which any Investor’s counsel reasonably objects. In the event that, despite the Company’s reasonable best efforts and compliance with the terms of this Section 3(q), the SEC refuses to alter its position, the Company shall remove from the Registration Statement such portion of the Registrable Securities as the SEC requires in writing be removed therefrom. Any such cut-back imposed by the SEC as contemplated by this Section 3(q) shall be imposed on a pro rata basis (based upon the Registrable Securities held by each of the Investors).
r. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 3(e), at any time after the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement, the Company may delay the disclosure of material non-public information concerning the Company the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company and its counsel, in the best interest of the Company and not, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, otherwise required (a “Grace Period”); provided, that the Company shall (i) promptly notify the Investors in writing of the existence of material non-public information giving rise to a Grace Period (provided that in each notice the Company shall not disclose the content of such material non-public information to any Investor unless otherwise requested in writing by such Investor) and the date on which the Grace Period will begin, and (ii) as soon as such date may be determined, promptly notify the Investors in writing of the date on which the Grace Period ends; and, provided, further, that (A) no Grace Period shall exceed forty-five (45) consecutive days, (B) during any three hundred sixty five (365) day period, such Grace Periods shall not exceed an aggregate of seventy-five (75) days, and (C) the first day of any Grace Period must be at least ten (10) business days after the last day of any prior Grace Period (each Grace Period that satisfies all of the requirements of this Section 3(r) being referred to as an “Allowable Grace Period”). For purposes of determining the length of a Grace Period above, the Grace Period shall begin on and include the date the Investors receive the notice referred to in clause (i) and shall end on and include the later of the date the Investors receive the notice referred to in clause (ii) and the date referred to in such notice. The provisions of Section 3(e) hereof shall not be applicable during the period of any Allowable Grace Period, Failure Payments (as defined in the Warrants) shall not accrue on any day during an Allowable Grace Period, and the unavailability of a Registration Statement for resales of the Registrable Securities on any day during an Allowable Grace Period shall not constitute a “Registration Failure” (as defined in the Warrants). Upon expiration of the Grace Period, the Company shall again be bound by the first sentence of Section 3(e) with respect to the information giving rise thereto unless such material non-public information is no longer applicable.
4. OBLIGATIONS OF THE INVESTOR. In connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, each Investor shall have the following obligations:
a. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of an Investor that such Investor shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it as shall be reasonably required to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request. At least five (5) business days prior to the first anticipated filing date of a Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Investor of the information the Company requires from such Investor. Any such information shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make
25
the statements therein not misleading. An Investor must provide such information to the Company at least two (2) business days prior to the first anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement if such Investor elects to have any Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement.
b. Each Investor, by such Investor’s acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of a Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Investor has notified the Company in writing of such Investor’s election to exclude all of the Investor’s Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.
c. In the event of an underwritten offering pursuant to Section 2(b) in which any Registrable Securities of any Investor are to be included, such Investor agrees to enter into and perform the Investor’s obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, including customary indemnification and contribution obligations (as applicable to selling security holders generally), with the managing underwriter of such offering and take such other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Investor Registrable Securities.
d. Each Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(e) or 3(f), such Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until such Investor’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(e) or 3(f).
e. Each Investor agrees that it will promptly notify the Company of any material changes in the information set forth in a Registration Statement furnished by or regarding such Investor, other than changes in the number of shares beneficially owned.
5. REGISTRATION FAILURE. In the event of a Registration Failure (as defined in the Warrants), the Investors shall be entitled to Failure Payments (as defined in the Warrants) and such other rights as set forth in the Warrants.
6. EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION. All reasonable expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, including, without limitation, all registration, listing and qualification fees, printers and accounting fees, and the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company shall be borne by the Company. The Company shall also reimburse the Investors for the reasonable fees and disbursements of Legal Counsel in the aggregate amount up to $25,000 per registration in connection with registrations pursuant to Section 2 or 3 of this Agreement.
7. INDEMNIFICATION. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a Registration Statement under this Agreement:
a. The Company will indemnify, hold harmless and defend (i) each Investor, (ii) the directors, officers, partners, managers, members, employees and agents of each Investor, and each Person who controls any Investor within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, if any, (iii) any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for each Investor in connection with an underwritten offering pursuant to Section 2(b) hereof, and (iv) the directors, officers, partners and employees of, and each Person who controls, any such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, if any (each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any joint or several losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (collectively, together with actions, proceedings or inquiries by any regulatory or self-regulatory organization, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof, “Claims”) to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged
26
untrue statement of a material fact in any Registration Statement, or any amendment as supplement thereto, or any filing made under state securities laws as required hereby, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in the light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading; or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, “Violations”). The Company shall reimburse the Indemnified Person, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable legal fees and other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 7(a) shall not apply to a Claim arising out of or based upon a Violation to the extent that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of such Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or (B) to any amounts paid in settlement of any Claim effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by any of the Investors pursuant to Section 10.
b. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Indemnified Person shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this Section 7, deliver to the Company a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the Company shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Company so desires, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the Company and the Indemnified Person, as the case may be;
provided, however, that an Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the Company, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel for such Indemnified Person, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person and the Company would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Company shall pay for only one separate legal counsel for the Indemnified Persons, and such legal counsel shall be selected by the Investors. The failure to deliver written notice to the Company within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve the Company of any liability to the Indemnified Person under this Section 7, except to the extent that the Company is actually prejudiced in its ability to defend such action, and shall not relieve the Company of any liability to the Indemnified Person otherwise than pursuant to this Section 7. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Persons, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be or has been sought hereunder (whether or not any such Indemnified Party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Persons of a full release from all liability with respect to such Claim or which includes any admission as to fault or culpability on the part of any Indemnified Person. The indemnification required by this Section 7 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as any expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred.
c. Each Investor will indemnify, hold harmless and defend (i) the Company, and (ii) the directors, officers, partners, managers, members, employees or agents of the Company, if any (each, a “Company Indemnified
27
Person”), against any Claims to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based upon any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities, which occurs due to the inclusion by the Company in a Registration Statement of false or misleading information about an Investor, where such information was furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Investor expressly for the purpose of inclusion in such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7(c) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Investors, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and provided, further, however, that an Investor shall be liable under this Section 7(c) for only that amount of a Claim as does not exceed the net amount of proceeds received by such Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement.
d. Promptly after receipt by a Company Indemnified Person under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such Company Indemnified Person shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any Investor under this Section 7, deliver to such Investor a written notice of the commencement thereof, and such Investor shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent such Investor so desires, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to such Investor and such Company Indemnified Person.
8. CONTRIBUTION. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in Section 7(a) or 7(c) (as applicable) is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person (as applicable) or insufficient to hold it harmless, other than as expressly specified therein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person (as applicable) as a result of the Claim in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Person or Company Indemnified Person (as applicable) and the indemnifying party (provided that the relative fault of any Company Indemnified Person shall be deemed to include the fault of all other Company Indemnified Persons), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act shall be entitled to contribution from any Person not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the contribution obligation of an Investor be greater in amount than the net amount of proceeds received by such Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement (net of the aggregate amount of any damages or other amounts such Investor has otherwise been required to pay (pursuant to Section 7(c) or otherwise) by reason of such Investor’s untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission).
9. REPORTS UNDER THE 1934 ACT. With a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Investors to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration, the Company agrees to:
a. make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;
b. file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and
c. so long as any of the Investors owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, furnish to such Investor (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act as required for applicable provisions of Rule 144, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or
28
quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit such Investor to sell such Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.
10. ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights under this Agreement shall be automatically assignable by each Investor to any transferee of all or any portion of the Registrable Securities if: (i) such Investor agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company within a reasonable time after such assignment, (ii) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer or assignment, furnished with written notice of (a) the name and address of such transferee or assignee, and (b) the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned, and (iii) at or before the time the Company receives the written notice contemplated in clause (ii) of this sentence, the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions contained herein as applicable to the Investors. In the event that the Company receives written notice from an Investor that it has transferred all or any portion of its Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section, the Company shall have up to ten (10) days to file any amendments or supplements necessary to keep a Registration Statement current and effective pursuant to Rule 415, and the commencement date of any Event of Failure (as defined in the Warrants) or Event of Default (as defined in the Warrants) under the Warrants caused thereby will be extended by ten (10) days. Each Investor shall at all times comply with the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 8 of the Warrant (to the extent applicable to such Investor), which provisions are hereby incorporated by reference and made a part hereof.
11. AMENDMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. Provisions of this Agreement may be amended and the observance thereof may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with written consent of the Company and the holders of a majority in interest of then-outstanding Registrable Securities. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 11 shall be binding upon each of the Investors and the Company.
12. MISCELLANEOUS.
a. A Person is deemed to hold, and be a holder of, shares of Common Stock or other Registrable Securities whenever such Person owns of record or beneficially through a “street name” holder such shares of Common Stock or other Registrable Securities (or the Warrants or other securities upon exercise, conversion or exchange of which such Registrable Securities are directly or indirectly issuable, without giving effect to any limitations on exercise, conversion or exchange of the Warrants or other securities), and solely for purposes hereof, Registrable Securities shall be deemed outstanding to the extent they are directly or indirectly issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange of the Warrants or other outstanding securities, Registrable Securities, without giving effect to any limits on exercise, conversion or exchange of the Warrants or other securities. If the Company receives conflicting instructions, notices or elections from two or more Persons with respect to the same Registrable Securities, the Company shall act upon the basis of instructions, notice or election received from the registered owner of such Registrable Securities (or the Warrants or other securities upon exercise, conversion or exchange of which such Registrable Securities are directly or indirectly issuable).
b. Any notices required or permitted to be given under the terms hereof shall be sent by certified or registered mail (return receipt requested) or delivered personally or by courier (including a recognized overnight delivery service) or by electronic mail and shall be effective five days after being placed in the mail, if mailed by regular United States mail, or upon receipt, if delivered personally or by courier (including a recognized overnight delivery service) or by electronic mail, in each case addressed to a party.

Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or
30
proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. The parties hereby waive all rights to a trial by jury. If either party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provision of this Agreement, then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.
e. This Agreement and the Warrants constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement and the Warrants (including all schedules and exhibits thereto) supersede all prior agreements and understandings among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.
f.

g. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.
h. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. This Agreement, once executed by a party, may be delivered to the other party hereto by electronic transmission of a copy of this Agreement bearing the signature of the party so delivering this Agreement.
i. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as the other parties may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.
j. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Investors by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transactions contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for breach of its obligations hereunder will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of any of the provisions hereunder, that the Investors shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies in law or in equity, to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

31
prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.

p. The obligations of each Investor hereunder are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no provision of this Agreement is intended to confer any obligations on any Investor vis-à-vis any other Investor.

q. Unless the context otherwise requires, (i) all references to Sections, Schedules or Exhibits are to Sections, Schedules or Exhibits contained in or attached to this Agreement, (ii) words in the singular or plural include the singular and plural, and pronouns stated in either the masculine, the feminine or neuter gender shall include the masculine, feminine and neuter, and (ii) the use of the word “including” in this Agreement shall be by way of example rather than limitation.

The undersigned, ENDOLOGIX, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”) pursuant to Section 5.1(h) [and Section 5.1(aa)]11 of the Amended and Restated Facility Agreement dated as of [ ], 2018 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Facility Agreement”) between Borrower, the other Loan Parties, Deerfield Private Design Fund IV, L.P.

The Report complies in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The consolidated financial statements included in the Report comply as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, were prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied [(subject, in the case of unaudited quarterly financial statements, to normal year-end adjustments and lack of footnote disclosures)]12, and fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the dates hereof and the consolidated results of their operations, cash flows and changes in stockholders equity for the periods presented [(subject, in the case of unaudited quarterly financial statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments and lack of footnote disclosures)]13.]14 [Borrower hereby certifies and warrants to Agent and the Lenders that attached hereto as Annex I is a true, correct and complete copy of the financial statements and any other materials required under Section 5.1(aa) of the Facility Agreement (the “Statements”). The Statements fairly present in all material respects the financial position and condition and results of operations, cash flows and changes in stockholders equity of Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the dates and for the periods and have been prepared in conformity with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with prior periods.]15

Litigation
Xxxxx Xxxxxx v. Endologix, Inc., et al.: (Filed January 3, 2017 in the United Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx xx Xxxxxxxxxx; Case No. 2:17-cv-00017). A putative shareholder class action pending in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. Lead plaintiff in Xxxxxx asserts multiple causes of action for securities fraud based on allegations that Borrower and two of its executives misled investors by opining optimistically about Borrower’s prospects for FDA pre-market approval of the Nellix EVAS System. On December 5, 2017, the District Court granted Borrower’s motion to dismiss lead plaintiff’s First Amended Complaint, with leave to amend. On January 9, 2018, lead plaintiff filed a Second Amended Complaint. Borrower intends to move for dismissal of the Second Amended Complaint with prejudice. The hearing on Borrower’s Motion to Dismiss lead plaintiff’s Second Amended Complaint has been set for August 10, 2018.
Derivative Lawsuits: As of June 11, 2017, Four shareholders have filed derivative lawsuits on behalf of Borrower, the nominal plaintiff, based on allegations substantially similar to those alleged by lead plaintiff in Xxxxxx. Those actions consist of: Xxxxxxxxxx x. XxXxxxxxx et al., Case No. BC662280 (Los Angeles Superior Court); Xxxxxxx x. XxXxxxxxx et al., Case No. 30-2018-00968971-CU-BT-CSC (Orange County Superior Court); and Green x. XxXxxxxxx et al., Case No. 8:17-cv-01155-AB (PLAx), consolidated with Xxxxx x. XxXxxxxxx et al., Case No. 8:17-cv-01183-AB (PLAx) (U.S. District Court for the Central District of California). Plaintiffs in the Xxxxxxxxxx and Green derivative actions have agreed to stay litigation pending resolution of the Xxxxxx action. Endologix is currently negotiating a similar agreement with the Xxxxxxx plaintiff. A related case, Xxxxx x. Endologix, Inc., et al. (Filed January 11, 2017 in the United Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx xx Xxxxxxxxxx; Case No. 8:17-cv-00061) was consolidated into Nguyen v. Endologix, Inc.
SEC Investigation: In July 2017, Borrower learned that the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued a Formal Order of Investigation to investigate, among other things, events surrounding the Nellix EVAS System and the prospect of its FDA pre-market approval. Borrower is fully cooperating with the investigation. Borrower continues to produce materials responsive to the SEC’s subpoenas.
Certain Notices: The Loan Parties have received three unrelated notices from individuals claiming that certain of our products read on certain issued patents held by such individuals. The Loan Parties, after consultation with independent patent counsel, strongly disagree with these claims; however, it is possible that should these claims proceed to litigation, that Borrower’s aggregate liability arising for monetary judgements or other reliefs arising out of these matters could exceed $2,000,000. Since it is presently not possible to determine the outcome of any future discussions with these individuals in regard to their patents, and whether or not litigation will ensue, or the outcomes associated with potential litigation, no provision has been made in Borrower’s financial statements for the ultimate resolution.

Intellectual Property
The items disclosed in Schedule 3.1(h) with the lead-in “Certain Notices”.
On May 7, 2018, Borrower received notice from Medtronic, Inc. (“Medtronic”) that Medtronic believes Borrower’s Ovation product appears to use one or more claims of certain Medtronic patents. Borrower is assessing this claim. Medtronic has invited Borrower to engage in discussions to obtain a non-exclusive license to these patents. Borrower has a robust patent portfolio at its disposal, and after conducting analysis believes that one or more of Medtronic’s products appears to use one or more claims of Borrower’s patents. Since it is presently not possible to determine the outcome of any future discussions with Medtronic in regard to the respective parties’ patents, and whether or not litigation will ensue, or the outcomes associated with potential litigation, no provision has been made in Borrower’s financial statements for the ultimate resolution.

Options and Equity Incentive/Compensation Plans:
Equity Awards: Borrower’s 2015 Stock Incentive Plan as amended (the “2015 Plan”) authorizes the grant of equity awards to purchase up to 10.3 million shares of Common Stock. As of July 31, 2018, approximately 9.6 million shares were reserved for issuance under outstanding stock options, including stock options granted under equity compensation plans preceding the 2015 Plan, and 1.6 million shares were subject to unvested restricted stock awards. The outstanding stock options have exercise prices ranging from $1.64 to $17.58 and a weighted average exercise price of $7.28. There have been no material changes to the items discussed in this paragraph as of the Agreement Date.
Amended and Restated 2006 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”): As of July 31, 2018, approximately 0.7 million shares of Common Stock were available for issuance under the ESPP. There have been no material changes to such amount as of the Agreement Date.
2017 Inducement Stock Incentive Plan: The Board has reserved 2,000,000 shares of Borrower’s
Common Stock for issuance pursuant to awards granted under the 2017 Inducement Stock Incentive Plan. As of July 31, 2018, approximately 1.5 million shares of Common Stock were available for issuance under this plan. There have been no material changes to such amount as of the Agreement Date.
Non-Plan Inducement Grants: In connection with its merger with TriVascular Technologies, Inc., on February 4, 2016 Borrower issued non-plan inducement stock options to purchase 1.4 million shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $7.53 per share, and non-plan inducement restricted stock units for 0.3 million shares of Common Stock.
Warrants:
In connection with its merger with TriVascular Technologies, Inc. on February 3, 2016, Borrower assumed unexercised out-of-the-money warrants of TriVascular Technologies, Inc., which converted into warrants to purchase 35,094 shares of Common Stock, 24,272 at an exercise price of $12.58 per share and 10,822 at an exercise price of $28.21 per share.
Pursuant to the terms of the Prior Facility Agreement, Borrower issued warrants to Lenders to purchase an aggregate of 6,470,000 shares of Common Stock of Borrower at an exercise price of $9.23 per share. The number of shares of Common Stock of Borrower into which the warrants are exercisable and the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted to reflect any stock splits, recapitalizations or similar adjustments in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock of Borrower.
Pursuant to the Agreement, Borrower is issuing warrants to Lenders to purchase an aggregate of 8,750,000 shares of Common Stock of Borrower at an exercise price equal to the closing bid price on the date of grant. The number of shares of Common Stock of Borrower into which the warrants are exercisable and the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted to reflect any stock splits, recapitalizations or similar adjustments in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock of Borrower.
Convertible Notes:
2.25% Convertible Notes: On December 10, 2013, Borrower issued $86.3 million aggregate principal amount of 2.25% Convertible Notes. The initial conversion rate of the 2.25% Convertible Notes is 41.6051 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2.25% Convertible Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $24.04 per share. On April 3, 2017, Borrower entered into the Prior Facility Agreement with Deerfield and used proceeds from the Deerfield loan to repurchase $68 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding 2.25% Senior Notes, plus the accrued but unpaid interest thereon, from the holders thereof in privately negotiated transactions. As of the Agreement Date, there is currently $18.278 million aggregate principal amount of 2.25% Convertible Notes outstanding.
3.25% Convertible Notes: On November 2, 2015, Borrower issued $125.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.25% Convertible Notes. The initial conversion rate of the 3.25% Convertible Notes is 89.4314 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of 3.25% Convertible Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $11.18 per share. Pursuant to the terms of the Facility Agreement with Deerfield, $40.5 million of the aggregate principal amount of the 3.25% Convertible Notes will be cancelled on the Agreement Date, and $84.5 million aggregate principal amount of 3.25% Convertible Notes will remain outstanding thereafter.
Pursuant to this Agreement the Borrower may issue, upon exercise under the Notes by Lenders, Conversion Shares in accordance with the terms of the Notes and Interest Payment Shares in accordance with this Agreement.
Other Rights to Securities of Borrower:
In connection with its merger with Nellix, Inc. (“Nellix”), Borrower agreed to issue shares of Common Stock to the former stockholders of Nellix upon Borrower’s receipt of FDA approval to sell its Nellix EVAS System in the United States (the “PMA Milestone”). The number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the former stockholders of Nellix upon achievement of the PMA Milestone shall equal the quotient obtained by dividing $15.0 million by the average per share closing price of Common Stock on The Nasdaq Global Select Market for each of the 30 consecutive trading days ending with the fifth trading day immediately preceding the date of Borrower’s receipt of FDA approval to sell its Nellix EVAS System in the United States, subject to a stock price floor of $4.50 per share, but not subject to a stock price ceiling.
In June 2018, Borrower received the approval of its stockholders to conduct an exchange program (“Exchange Program”) in which eligible employee stock option holders would have the ability to exchange certain “out-of-the-money” stock options for restricted stock units (“RSUs”) of Borrower pursuant to fixed exchange ratios. Borrower intends to consummate this Exchange Program. The material terms of the Exchange Program are as set forth in proposal 6 of the Company’s definitive proxy statement in respect of its annual meeting of stockholders held on June 14, 2018.

• | Base Capped Call Confirmation, dated December 4, 2013, between the Borrower and Bank of America, N.A. |
• | Additional Capped Call Confirmation, dated December 5, 2013, between the Borrower and Bank of America, N.A. |
The capped call transactions contemplated by the documents listed above relate to the 2.25% Convertible Notes. The capped call transactions are expected to reduce the potential dilution and/or offset the potential cash payments that the Borrower may be required to make in excess of the principal amount upon conversion of the 2.25% Convertible Notes in the event that the market price per share of the Borrower’s common stock, as measured under the terms of the capped call transactions, is greater than the strike price of the capped call transactions, which initially corresponds to the $24.04 conversion price of the 2.25% Convertible Notes. The Borrower will not be required to make any cash payments to Bank of America, N.A. upon the exercise of the options that are a part of the capped call transactions, but rather will be entitled to receive from Bank of America, N.A. a number of shares of the Borrower’s common stock and/or an amount of cash based on the amount by which the market price per share of Common Stock of the Borrower, as measured under the terms of the capped call transactions, is greater than the strike price of the capped call transactions during the relevant valuation period.
