WAIVER, AMENDMENT AND EXCHANGE AGREEMENT
Execution Copy
THIS WAIVER, AMENDMENT AND EXCHANGE AGREEMENT, dated as of September 9, 2011 (this “Agreement”), is made by and between Ener1, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), and the security holder signatory hereto (the “Holder”). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined have the meanings assigned to them in the Securities Purchase Agreements (as defined below). The effectiveness of this Agreement is conditioned upon the Company and each of the other security holders listed on Schedule A (the “Other Holders”) executing the Other Agreements (as defined below).
WHEREAS, the Company and the Holder are party to a Securities Purchase Agreement dated September 2, 2010 (the “First Securities Purchase Agreement”) and/or a Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 31, 2010 (the “Second Securities Purchase Agreement”; collectively, with the First Securities Purchase Agreement, the “Securities Purchase Agreements”);
WHEREAS, pursuant to the First Securities Purchase Agreement, on September 7, 2010 the Company issued to the Holder the aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes set forth opposite the Holder’s name on Schedule A attached hereto (the “Original September Notes”) and one or more warrants to purchase Common Stock of the Company set forth opposite the Holder’s name on Schedule A attached hereto (the “Original September Warrants”);
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Second Securities Purchase Agreement, on December 31, 2010 the Company issued to the Holder the aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes set forth opposite the Holder’s name on Schedule A attached hereto (the “Original December Notes”, and together with the Original September Notes, the “Original Notes”) and one or more warrants to purchase Common Stock of the Company set forth opposite the Holder’s name on Schedule A attached hereto (the “Original December Warrants”, and together with the Original September Warrants, the “Original Warrants”);
WHEREAS, the Company (i) has failed to comply with a certain cash maintenance covenant contained in Section 4.1(l) of each of the Original Notes (such covenant, the “Cash Maintenance Covenant”), and (ii) is currently restating certain of its financial statements to amend the accounting for its transactions with Think Holdings, AS and Think Global, AS (the “Restatement”);
WHEREAS, the failure and inability of the Company to comply with the Cash Maintenance Covenant and the Company’s Restatement has resulted in an Event of Default under the Original Notes and certain breaches of the other Transaction Documents (the “Default”);
WHEREAS, in order to induce the Holder to waive the Default with respect to the Original September Notes, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company has offered to exchange the Holder’s Original September Note for (i) (x) a note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “A” having the principal amount and accrued interest set forth opposite the Holder’s name on Schedule A (the “Tranche A September Note”), and (y) a note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “B” having the principal amount and accrued interest set forth opposite the Holder’s name on Schedule A (the “Tranche B September Note,” and together with the Tranche A September Notes, collectively, the “Exchanged September Notes”), which shall be convertible into Common Stock (as converted, collectively, the “Exchanged September Conversion Shares”), and (ii) a new warrant to purchase Common Stock of the Company in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “C” (the “Exchanged Warrants”). The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Exchanged Warrants (as exercised, collectively, the “Exchanged Warrant Shares”) will be as set forth opposite the Holder’s name on Schedule A.
WHEREAS, in order to induce the Holder to waive the Default with respect to the Original December Notes, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company has offered to exchange the Holder’s Original December Note for (i) a note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit “B” (the “Tranche B December Note”; and together with the Exchanged September Notes, the “Exchanged Notes”) having the principal amount and accrued interest set forth opposite the Holder’s name on Schedule A, which Exchanged December Notes shall be convertible into Common Stock (as converted, collectively, the “Exchanged December Conversion Shares”, and together with the Exchanged September Conversion Shares, the “Exchanged Conversion Shares”).
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Exchange of Original Notes.
1.1 Exchange. Subject to satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.2 below, on the Closing Date (as defined below), the Holder shall surrender to the Company the Holder’s Original Notes and the Company shall issue and deliver to the Holder the Exchanged Notes and the Exchanged Warrant, each in the amounts set forth opposite the Holder’s name on Schedule A attached hereto (the “Closing”).
1.2 Closing Date. The date and time of the Closing (the “Closing Date”) shall be 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date hereof, subject to notification of satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions to the Closing set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.2 below (or such earlier or later date as is mutually agreed to by the Company and the Holder). The Closing shall occur on the Closing Date at such place as the parties may agree.
1.3 Delivery. On the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to the Holder (A) the Exchanged Notes, each in the principal amount set forth opposite the Holder’s name on Schedule A attached hereto, and (B) the Exchanged Warrants exercisable for the number of shares of Common Stock set forth opposite the Holder’s name on Schedule A attached hereto. All of the foregoing securities shall be delivered in each case duly executed on behalf of the Company and registered in the name of the Holder or its designee.
1.4 Purchase Price. The Exchanged Notes and the Exchanged Warrants shall be issued to the Holder in exchange for the Holder’s Original Notes as set forth above and without the payment of any additional consideration.
2
1.5 Holding Period. For the purposes of Rule 144, the Company acknowledges that the holding period of the Exchanged September Notes (including the corresponding Exchanged Conversion Shares) and the Exchanged Warrants (including the corresponding Exchanged Warrant Shares) may be tacked onto the holding period of the Original September Notes and the holding period of the Exchanged December Notes (including the corresponding Exchanged Conversion Shares) may be tacked onto the holding period of the Original December Notes, and the Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 1.5. The Company agrees to take all actions, including, without limitation, the issuance by its legal counsel of any necessary legal opinions required by its transfer agent or otherwise, necessary to (i) issue the Exchanged September Conversion Shares and Exchanged Warrant Shares upon conversion, amortization or exercise after the date hereof without restriction and not containing any restrictive legends without the need for any action by the Holder, (ii) issue the Exchanged December Conversion Shares upon conversion, amortization or exercise after December 31, 2011 without restriction and not containing any restrictive legends without the need for any action by the Holder and (iii) remove any restrictive legends from the Exchanged Notes, Exchanged Conversion Shares, Exchanged Warrants and/or Exchanged Warrant Shares after such applicable dates and/or upon any sales pursuant to Rule 144.
2. Amendment to Warrants.
2.1 Each Original Warrant is hereby amended so that its exercise price is $0.3752, subject to adjustment as provided therein. The number of Warrant Shares for which such Original Warrant is exercisable will not be adjusted as a result of the foregoing reduction in exercise price.
2.2 Each Original Warrant is hereby amended by inserting the following sentence after the penultimate sentence in Section 2(a) of such warrant:
“Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Post-Closing Equity Financing (as defined in the Waiver, Amendment and Exchange Agreement, dated as of September 9, 2011, between the Company and the Holder) and/or any warrants issued therewith constitutes a Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the New Issuance Price for such Dilutive Issuance.”
2.3 Each Original Warrant is hereby amended by amending and restating the definition of Fundamental Transaction in Section 16(k) of such warrant:
3
"(k) "Fundamental Transaction" means that (i) the Company shall, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions, (A) consolidate or merge with or into (whether or not the Company is the surviving corporation) another Person, or (B) sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company to another Person, or (C) allow another Person to make a purchase, tender or exchange offer that is accepted by the holders of more than the 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the Person or Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the Persons making or party to, such purchase, tender or exchange offer), (D) consummate a stock purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person whereby such other Person acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock purchase agreement or other business combination), or (E) reorganize, recapitalize or reclassify its Common Stock, or (ii) any "person" or "group" (as these terms are used for purposes of Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) (other than Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxx and his Affiliates, so long as he and his Affiliates collectively beneficially own less than 70% of the aggregate voting power of the Company) is or shall become the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of 50% of the aggregate ordinary voting power represented by issued and outstanding Common Stock, or (iii) Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxx together with his Affiliates shall beneficially own 70% or more of the aggregate voting power of the Company."
2.4 Notwithstanding any requirement in the Original Warrants to reserve a specified number of Warrant Shares (as defined in the Original Warrants), the Company shall not be required to reserve such number of shares of Common Stock on or prior to the Authorization Date (as defined below ), but instead shall be required as of the date hereof and until the Authorization Date to have not less than 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Original Warrants and the Exchanged Warrants. This provision shall have not any force or effect after the Authorization Date.
3. Amendments to Transaction Documents.
3.1 Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Original Securities Purchase Agreements and each other Transaction Document 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 Closing Date (i) all references in the Original Securities Purchase Agreements to “this Agreement”, “hereto”, “hereof”, “hereunder” or words of like import referring to the Securities Purchase Agreements shall mean the Original Securities Purchase Agreement as amended by this Agreement and (ii) all references in the other Transaction Documents to the “Securities Purchase Agreement”, “thereto”, “thereof”, “thereunder” or words of like import referring to the Securities Purchase Agreement shall mean the applicable Original Securities Purchase Agreement as amended by this Agreement.
