LINE OF CREDIT LETTER AGREEMENT
Exhibit 10.1
LINE OF CREDIT LETTER AGREEMENT
Dated as of July 25, 2022
GALECTIN THERAPEUTICS, INC.
0000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxx., Xxxxx 000
Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000
Gentlemen:
Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, an individual resident of the State of Illinois (“Xxxxxxx”), hereby
confirms that he is holding available to Galectin Therapeutics, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), subject to the restrictions outlined below, a line of credit to finance the
Company’s working capital needs in the amount of $60,000,000 (the “Line of Credit”).
Each advance made pursuant to the Line of Credit by Xxxxxxx shall be evidenced by an unsecured Promissory Note substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (each, a “Promissory Note”), executed by a duly authorized officer of the Company, which shall represent the
Company’s obligation to pay the principal amount of such advance with interest thereon. Xxxxxxx shall make requested advances promptly after a draw is submitted by the Company. The Line of Credit may be drawn upon through July 31, 2024, through
draws no more frequently than monthly. As set forth therein, the Promissory Notes shall bear interest (based upon the principal amount outstanding from time to time) payable on or before January 31, 2026, at the Applicable Federal Rate for short
term loans published by the Internal Revenue Service as may be in effect at the time of such applicable advance, which interest rate on the date hereof is 2.84%, plus two (2%) percent. Interest on the Promissory Notes will compound monthly and
accrue. Only with the consent of Xxxxxxx, may the Promissory Notes be prepaid, in whole or in part, at any time without premium or penalty, but with interest on the amount prepaid.
The date and amount of any borrowing pursuant to the Line of Credit and each payment of principal in respect thereof shall be (i) reflected by the
Company on Schedule 1 attached hereto, which Schedule 1 shall be amended by the Company from time to time, without any further
action by Xxxxxxx , to reflect each new advance pursuant to the Line of Credit.
At the election of Xxxxxxx, the principal and accrued interest on a Promissory Note may be converted into the number of shares of the Company’s common
stock (the “Common Stock”) equal to the amount of principal and accrued interest on such Promissory Note divided by the price equal to the closing price of the Common Stock on the date of
such Promissory Note, but in no event less than $3.00 per share.
In consideration for making the Line of Credit available, the Company shall issue warrants to Xxxxxxx, exercisable to purchase an aggregate of
1,700,000 shares of Common Stock (collectively, the “Warrants”) in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. Upon
execution of this Line of Credit Agreement, the Company shall issue Xxxxxxx a Warrant that is exercisable to purchase 500,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. With respect to the remaining 1,200,000 shares of Common
Stock (the “Remaining Warrant Shares”), the Company shall issue Xxxxxxx Warrants that are exercisable to purchase the Remaining Warrant Shares, ratably, at the time of the draws, with exercise prices equal to 150% of the closing price of the Common
Stock on the date of the Promissory Note evidencing such draw, but in no event more than $10.00 per share nor less than $3.00 per share. For example, if $1,000,000 has been advanced on the Line of Credit in the aggregate, then the Company will issue
Xxxxxxx a Warrant exercisable to purchase 20,000 shares of Common Stock. The Warrants expire on July 31, 2029.
Any shares of Common Stock issued to Xxxxxxx upon (i) conversion of a Promissory Note or (ii) exercise of the Warrant, shall be accompanied by
registration rights whereby the Company shall agree to register the shares of Common Stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) within 180 days of the conversion of a
Promissory Note or exercise of the Warrant, as the case may be.
In the event that the Company on or after July 31, 2022 raises additional capital from at-the-market sales, other financings, exercise of warrants or
options, from license or similar fees received from pharmaceutical or other companies or from strategic or financial partnerships or ventures (collectively, “Other Funding”) then Xxxxxxx
may, at his election, within 30 days after the end of each calendar quarter containing Other Funding, reduce the size of the Line of Credit on a dollar for dollar basis determined by the amount of the Other Funding actually received, but in no event
may Xxxxxxx elect to reduce the size of the Line of Credit below the amount that is then drawn under this Line of Credit Agreement.
In connection with this Letter of Credit Agreement, all officers and directors of the Company were requested to enter into a lockup agreement (the “Lockup Agreement”), in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, whereby they will each agree not to sell Common Stock
through January 31, 2023 and will suspend any Rule 10b-5-1 plans that they have until such date.
To the extent that NASDAQ requires stockholder approval of this Letter of Credit Agreement and the issuance of Common Stock from any conversion of the
Promissory Note(s) and/or exercise of the Warrant, the Company shall seek approval from its stockholders at its 2022 annual meeting. Furthermore, Xxxxxxx acknowledges and understands that the issuance of Common Stock resulting from any conversion of
the Promissory Note and/or the exercise of Warrants shall not exceed 20% of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock as of the date hereof, unless this Letter of Credit Agreement has been approved by the Company’s stockholders at a duly held
meeting of stockholders.
The Company agrees that so long as any Promissory Note is outstanding the Company will not grant a security interest in the material assets of the
Company to any person or entity.
No other document shall evidence the indebtedness of Xxxxxxx which may be created pursuant to the terms of this Line of Credit,
other than the Promissory Note.
2
This Line Letter shall be governed by, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia.
Very truly yours,

the Company at its expense will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Purchaser, or as the Purchaser (upon payment by the Purchaser of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, a certificate or certificates for the number of fully
paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock to which the Purchaser shall be entitled upon such exercise, together with any other stock or other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) to which the Purchaser is entitled upon

Purchaser will be deemed for all purposes to have become the record holder of such Common Stock on the Exercise Date.
(e) The issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant will be made without charge to the Holder or the
Purchaser for any issuance tax in respect thereof or any other cost incurred by the Company in connection with such exercise and the related issuance of shares of Common Stock.

defined in Rule 501 promulgated under the Securities Act and acknowledges and agrees that the Company may, in its sole discretion, (i) require, as a condition to the exercise of this Warrant, that the holder provide such written evidence that such
holder is an accredited investor as the time of exercise, and (ii) decline to issue the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise if the Company is not satisfied that this warrant may be exercised by the holder pursuant to a valid
registration exemption from the Securities Act and any applicable state securities law.
2.3 Acknowledgement of Continuing Obligations. The Company will, at the time of the exercise of this Warrant, upon the request of the Purchaser,
acknowledge in writing its continuing obligation to afford to the Purchaser any rights to which the Purchaser shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant, provided that if the Purchaser shall

Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are not to be issued in the name of the Purchaser, the Exercise Notice will also state the name of the Person to whom the certificates for the shares of Common Stock are to be issued, and if the number

rights represented by this Warrant, the Company will, within ten (10) days after the Exercise Date, deliver to the Purchaser a check payable to the Purchaser in lieu of such fractional share, in an amount equal to the Market Value of such
fractional share as of the close of business on the Exercise Date.
3. Adjustments.
3.1 Adjustments for Stock Splits, Etc. If the Company shall at any time after the Issue Date subdivide its outstanding Common Stock, by split-up

Warrant shall forthwith be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision or stock dividend, or proportionately decreased in the case of a combination, and the Exercise Price then applicable to shares covered by the unexercised portion of
this Warrant shall forthwith be proportionately decreased in the case of a subdivision or stock dividend, or proportionately increased in the case of combination.
3.2 Adjustment for Reclassification, Reorganization, Etc. In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization, or change of the outstanding
Common Stock (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination or stock dividend), or in the case of any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, another Person (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company
is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or change of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company), or in case of any sale or conveyance to one or more Persons of the property of the Company as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant, then, as a condition of such reclassification, reorganization, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, lawful provision shall be made, and duly executed
documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holder of this Warrant, so that the Holder of this Warrant shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant to purchase, at a total
price not to exceed that payable upon the exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, change, consolidation,
merger, sale or conveyance by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company as to which this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization, change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance,
and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder of this Warrant to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for the adjustment of the Exercise
Price and of the number of shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable in relation to any shares of stock, and other securities and property, thereafter deliverable upon exercise hereof. If, as a consequence of
any such transaction, solely cash, and no securities or other property of any kind, is deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant, then, in such event, the Company may terminate this Warrant by giving the Holder hereof written notice thereof. Such
notice shall specify the date (at least thirty (30) days subsequent to the date on which notice is given) on which, at 3:00 P.M., Norcross, Georgia time, this Warrant shall terminate. Notwithstanding any such notice, this Warrant shall remain
exercisable, and otherwise in full force and effect, until such time of termination.
3.3 Certificate of Adjustment. Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of shares issuable hereunder is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company
shall promptly deliver to the registered Holder of this Warrant a certificate of the Treasurer of the Company, which certificate shall state (i) the Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder after such adjustment,
(ii) the facts requiring such adjustment, and (iii) the method of calculation for such adjustment and increase or decrease.
3.4 Small Adjustments. No adjustment in the Exercise
Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease in the Exercise Price of at least one percent; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 3.4 are not required to be made immediately
shall be carried forward and taken into account at the time of exercise of this Warrant or any subsequent adjustment in the Exercise Price which, singly or in combination with any adjustment carried forward, is required to be made under Sections
3.1 or 3.2.
4. Reservation of Stock, etc., Issuable on Exercise of Warrant. The Company
will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant, all shares of Common Stock from time to time issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
5. Disposition of This Warrant, Common Stock, Etc.
(a) The Holder of this Warrant and any transferee hereof or of the Common Stock with respect to which this Warrant may be exercisable, by their
acceptance hereof, hereby understand and agree that this Warrant and the Common Stock with respect to which this Warrant may be exercisable have not been registered under the Securities Act, and may not be sold, pledged, hypothecated, donated, or
otherwise transferred (whether or not for consideration) without an effective registration statement under the Act or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company and/or submission to the Company of such other evidence as may be satisfactory
to counsel to the Company, in each such case, to the effect that any such transfer shall not be in violation of the Act. It shall be a condition to the transfer of this Warrant that any transferee thereof deliver to the Company its written
agreement to accept and be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Warrant.
(b) Except to the extent the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise hereof are registered for resale, or may be sold to the

substantially the following form:
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE
SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED, DONATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED (WHETHER OR NOT FOR CONSIDERATION) BY THE HOLDER WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND/OR SUBMISSION TO THE
COMPANY OF SUCH OTHER EVIDENCE AS MAY BE SATISFACTORY TO COUNSEL TO THE COMPANY, IN EACH SUCH CASE, TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY SUCH TRANSFER SHALL NOT BE IN VIOLATION OF THE ACT.”
The Company agrees to prepare and file with the Securities Exchange Commission within 180 days from the date of issuance of any shares of Common
Stock upon exercise of this Warrant.
6. Rights and Obligations of Warrant Holder. The Holder of this Warrant
shall not, by virtue hereof, be entitled to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company. No provision of this Warrant, in the absence of affirmative actions by the Holder to purchase Common Stock of the Company by exercising
this Warrant, and no enumeration in this Warrant of the rights or privileges of the Holder, will give rise to any liability of such Holder for the Exercise Price of Common Stock acquirable by exercise hereof or as a stockholder of the Company.
7. Transfer of Warrants. Subject to compliance with the restrictions on
transfer applicable to this Warrant referred to in Section 5 hereof, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part to other Lenders pursuant to the Line of Credit Letter Agreement, without charge to the registered

new Warrant or Warrants in such denomination or denominations as may be requested, but otherwise of like tenor, in the name of the Holder or as the Holder (upon payment of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct.
8. Replacement of Warrants. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case
of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Company at its expense will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.

Company, the Company may treat the registered Holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

Company and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx (the “Lender”).
Therefore, as an inducement to the Lender to execute the Credit Agreement, the undersigned hereby acknowledges and agrees that the
undersigned, the undersigned’s family members and the undersigned’s affiliates (including any entities managed by or funds affiliated with the undersigned) (collectively referred to as the “Lock-up Parties”) will not (i) offer, sell, contract to
sell, pledge, assign, encumber, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of (collectively, a “Disposition”) any common stock, options, warrants of other securities of the Company (the “Company Securities”), or any securities convertible
into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or any rights to purchase or otherwise acquire, any Company Securities held by the Lock-Up Parties after the date hereof, or that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Lock-Up Parties (collectively,
the “Lock-Up Shares”), pursuant to the Rules and Regulations promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), for a period commencing on the date hereof
and ending on January 31, 2023 (the “Lock-Up Period”), without the prior written consent of Lender or (ii) exercise or seek to exercise or effectuate in any manner any rights of any nature that the Lockup-Parties has or may have hereafter to
require the Company to register under the Act the undersigned’s sale, transfer or other disposition of any of the Lock-Up Shares or other securities of the Company held by the Lockup Parties, or to otherwise participate as a selling securityholder
in any manner in any registration effected by the Company under the Act, including under a registration statement, during the Lock-Up Period. The Lockup Parties agrees that during the Lock-Up Period, the Lockup Parties will not implement a trading
plan pursuant to Rule 10b-5 of the Exchange Act (“10b-5 Plan”), for the transfer or sale of Company Securities during the Lock-Up Period, and further agreed to suspend any 10b-5 Plan that the undersigned currently has in place. The foregoing
restrictions are expressly agreed to preclude the Lock-Up Parties from engaging in any hedging, collar (whether or not for any consideration) or other transaction that is designed to or reasonably expected to lead or result in a Disposition of
Lock-Up Shares during the Lock-Up Period, even if such Lock-Up Shares would be disposed of by someone other than such holder. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would include any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right
(including any put or call option or reversal or cancellation thereof) with respect to any Lock-Up Shares or with respect to any security (other than a broad-based market basket or index) that includes, relates to or derives any significant part of
its value from Lock-Up Shares.
1
Notwithstanding the agreement not to make any Disposition during the Lock-Up Period, you have agreed that the foregoing restrictions shall
not apply to:
(1) |
Company Securities to be transferred as a gift or gifts, by will or intestacy or to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the
undersigned (provided that any donee or transferee thereof agrees in writing to be bound by the terms hereof);
|
(2) |
the distribution of Company Securities to partners, members, stockholders, or other equity holders of entities controlled by the undersigned; or
|
(3) |
transfers of Company Securities for the primary purpose of satisfying any tax or other governmental withholding obligation with respect to Company Securities issued upon the exercise of
an option or warrant or the conversion of a security.
|
In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company and its transfer agent and registrar are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of
Lock-Up Shares if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this letter agreement. This letter agreement shall be binding on the Lock-Up Parties and the respective successors, heirs, personal representatives and assigns of the Lock-Up
Parties. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement.
Very truly yours,
