NO TRANSFER MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.”

 

5.7Accredited and Sophisticated Purchaser. The Purchaser is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and will contemporaneous with the execution hereof, execute an accredited investor questionnaire in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F.

(a)there is then in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act, covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement; or 

 

(b)such Holder has notified the applicable Company of the proposed disposition and has furnished such Company with a statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and, at the expense of such Holder or its transferee, with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to such Company, that such disposition will not require registration of such securities under the Securities Act. 

 

Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 7.1(a) and (b), no such registration statement or opinion of counsel will be required: (i) for any transfer of any Securities in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Rule 144 or Rule 144A, or (ii) for any transfer of any Securities by a Holder that is a partnership, limited liability company, a corporation, or a venture capital fund to (A) a partner of such partnership, a member of such limited liability company, or stockholder of such corporation,

B-9

Each Holder shall enter into any agreement reasonably required by the underwriters to implement the foregoing within any reasonable time frame so requested. Any discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions of this Section 7.2 or any other similar market stand-off restriction by a Company (unless such discretionary waiver or termination is approved by the holders of outstanding securities of such Company holding securities of such Company possessing at least a majority of the voting power of all outstanding securities of such Company) shall apply pro rata to all Holders subject to such agreements, based on the number of shares subject to such agreements.

 

7.3Drag Along Right. In the event of both, or either, (a) a Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined in the Restated Charter) is approved by each of (i) the holders of a majority of the shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock then-outstanding (other than those issued or issuable upon conversion of the shares of Series Seed Preferred Stock and the Common Stock), (ii) the holders of then-outstanding shares of Series Seed Preferred Stock, then-outstanding shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of shares of Series Seed Preferred Stock (“Series Seed Conversion Stock”), then-outstanding shares of Common Stock, then-outstanding shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of shares of Common Stock (“Series Post Seed Conversion Stock”) that represent a majority of the voting power (measured on an as- converted basis) of all such then-outstanding shares of Series Seed Preferred Stock, Series Seed Conversion Stock, Common Stock and Series Post Seed Conversion Stock and (iii) the Corporation Board, then each Stockholder who is a party to this Agreement or a transferee of Series Seed Preferred Stock and/or Series Seed Conversion Stock and of Common Stock and/or Series Post Seed Conversion Stock shall vote (in person, by proxy or by action by written consent, as applicable) all shares of capital stock of the Corporation now or hereafter directly or indirectly owned of record or beneficially by such Stockholder (collectively, the “Shares”) in favor of, and adopt, such Deemed Liquidation Event and to execute and deliver all related documentation and take such other action in support of the Deemed Liquidation Event as may reasonably be requested by the Corporation to carry out the terms and provision of this Section 7.3, including executing and delivering instruments of conveyance and transfer, and any purchase agreement, merger agreement, indemnity agreement, escrow agreement, consent, waiver, governmental filing, share certificates duly endorsed for transfer (free and clear of impermissible liens, claims and encumbrances) and any similar or related documents and/or (b) a Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined in the Restated Operating Agreement) is approved by each of (i) the holders of a majority of the Common Units then-outstanding (other than those issued or issuable upon conversion of the Series Seed Preferred Units and the Common Units), (ii) the holders of then-outstanding Series Seed Preferred Units, then-outstanding Common Units issued upon conversion of Series Seed Preferred Units (“Series Seed Conversion Units”), then-outstanding Common Units and then-outstanding Common Units issued upon conversion of Common Units (“Series Post Seed Conversion Units”) that represent a majority of the voting power (measured on an as-converted basis) of all such then-outstanding Series Seed Preferred Units, Series Seed Conversion Units, Common Units and Series Post Seed Conversion Units and (iii) the LLC Board, then each Unitholder who is a party to this Agreement or a transferee of Series Seed Preferred Units and/or Series Seed Conversion Units and Common Units and/or Series Post Seed Conversion Units shall vote (in person, by proxy or by action by written consent, as applicable) all Units of the LLC now or hereafter directly or indirectly owned of record or beneficially by such Unitholder (collectively, the “Units”) in favor of, and adopt, such Deemed Liquidation Event and to execute and deliver all related documentation and take such other action in support of the Deemed Liquidation Event as may reasonably be requested by the LLC to carry out the terms and provision of this Section 7.3, including executing and delivering instruments of conveyance and transfer, and any purchase agreement, merger agreement, indemnity agreement, escrow agreement, consent, waiver, governmental filing, units certificates duly endorsed for transfer (free and clear of impermissible liens, claims and encumbrances) and any similar or related documents. The obligation of any party to take the actions required by this Section 7.3 will not apply to a Deemed Liquidation Event if the other party involved in such Deemed Liquidation Event is an affiliate, unitholder, or stockholder of the Company holding more than 10% of the voting power of the Company.  “Stockholder” means each Holder of capital stock of the

(b)the Stockholder and/or Unitholder will not be liable for the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by any other Person in connection with the Proposed Sale, other than either of the Companies (except to the extent that funds may be paid out of an escrow established to cover breach of representations, warranties, and covenants of any of the Companies as well as breach by any stockholder or unitholder of any identical representations, warranties and covenants provided by all stockholders or unitholders); 

 

(c)the liability for indemnification, if any, of the Stockholder and/or Unitholder in the Proposed Sale and for the inaccuracy of any representations and warranties made by any of the Companies or its Stockholder and/or Unitholders in connection with such Proposed Sale, is several and not joint with any other Person (except to the extent that funds may be paid out of an escrow established to cover breach of representations, warranties and covenants of any of the Companies as well as breach by any stockholder or unitholder of any identical representations, warranties, and covenants provided by all stockholders or unitholders), and except as required to satisfy the liquidation preference of the Series Seed Preferred Stock, Series Seed Preferred Units, the Common Stock or the Common Units, if any, is pro rata in proportion to, and does not exceed, the amount of consideration paid to such Stockholder and/or Unitholder in connection with such Proposed Sale;

7.5Legends. Each certificate, instrument, or book entry representing any Common Stock or Series Post Seed Conversion Stock, or any Common Units or Series Post Seed Conversion Units, shall be notated by the applicable Company with a legend reading substantially as follows: 

 

“THE [SHARES] [UNITS] REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, A MARKET STANDOFF AGREEMENT AND A DRAG-ALONG AGREEMENT SET FORTH IN A COMMON STOCK AND SERIES POST SEED PREFERRED UNIT INVESTMENT AGREEMENT WITH THE ISSUER OF SUCH [SHARES] [UNITS] AND OTHER PARTIES, AS IT MAY BE AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, (A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST FROM THE COMPANY), AND BY ACCEPTING ANY INTEREST IN SUCH SHARES THE PERSON ACCEPTING SUCH INTEREST SHALL BE DEEMED TO AGREE TO AND SHALL BECOME BOUND BY ALL THE PROVISIONS OF SUCH RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER, A MARKET STANDOFF AGREEMENT AND A DRAG-ALONG AGREEMENT THAT ARE SET FROTH THEREIN.”

 

The Corporation, by its execution of this Agreement, agrees that it will cause the certificates, instruments, or book entry evidencing the shares of Common Stock and Series Post Seed Conversion Stock that are now or hereafter subject to the provisions of this Section 7, and the LLC, by its execution of this Agreement, agrees that it will cause the certificates, instruments, or book entry evidencing the Common Units and Series Post Seed Conversion Units that are now or hereafter subject to the provisions of this Section 7, to be notated with the legend required by this Section 7.5 and it shall supply, free of charge, a copy of this Agreement to any holder of such shares or units upon written request from such holder to the Company at its principal office. The parties to this Agreement do hereby agree that the failure to cause the certificates, instruments, or book entry evidencing the shares or units to be notated with the legend required by this


B-12


Section 7.5 and/or the failure of any of the Companies to supply, free of charge, a copy of this Agreement as provided hereunder shall not affect the validity or enforcement of this Agreement.

 

8.PARTICIPATION RIGHT

 

8.1General. Each Major Purchaser has the right of first refusal to purchase the Major Purchaser’s Pro Rata Share of any New Securities (as defined below) that the Corporation and/or the LLC may from time to time issue after the date of this Agreement, provided, however, the Major Purchaser will have no right to purchase any such New Securities if the Major Purchaser cannot demonstrate to the Companies’ reasonable satisfaction that such Major Purchaser is at the time of the proposed issuance of such New Securities an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act. A Major Purchaser’s “Pro Rata Share” for means: (a) with respect to a proposed issuance of New Securities by the Corporation, the ratio of (i) the number of shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the shares of Common Stock issued under this Agreement that are owned by such Major Purchaser, to (ii) the Fully-Diluted Capitalization Number for the Corporation and

B-13

8.3Procedures. If the Corporation and/or LLC proposes to undertake an issuance of New Securities, the applicable Company shall give notice to each Major Purchaser of its intention to issue New Securities (the “Notice”), describing the type of New Securities and the price and the general terms upon which the Corporation and/or LLC proposes to issue the New Securities. Each Major Purchaser will have (10) days from the date of notice, to agree in writing to purchase such Major Purchaser’s Pro Rata Share of such New Securities for the price and upon the general terms specified in the Notice by giving written notice to the Corporation and/or LLC, as appropriate and applicable, and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased (not to exceed such Major Purchaser’s Pro Rata Share). 

 

8.4Failure to Exercise. If the Major Purchasers fail to exercise in full the right of first refusal within the 10-day period, then the Corporation and/or LLC, as appropriate and applicable, will have one hundred twenty (120) days thereafter to sell the New Securities with respect to which the Major Purchasers’ rights of first refusal hereunder were not exercised, at a price and upon general terms not materially more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the Companies’ Notice to the Major Purchasers. If the Corporation and/or LLC has not issued and sold the New Securities within the 120-day period, then the Corporation and/or LLC shall not thereafter issue or sell any New Securities without again first offering those New Securities to the Major Purchasers pursuant to this Section 8.

RISK FACTORS

Risks Related to the Company

 

Lack of Operating History of the Company.

 

We have a limited operating history, which does not afford investors the ability to evaluate our future revenue prospects. Additionally, to date we have not generated any revenue and have incurred substantial losses and we may not achieve or maintain profitability in the future.

Limited access to capital resources could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We have limited access to financial resources. An inability on our part to access funding may lead to an inability to finance our operations and meet short-term financial obligations as they become due, which in turn could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. If additional financing is not available when required or is not available on favorable terms, we may be unable to take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects. In addition, our ability to access sufficient funding may be impaired by factors that are not specific to us, such as general market conditions, severe disruption of the financial markets or negative views about the prospects for the industries in which we operate.

 

We may not be able to secure adequate or reliable sources of funding required to operate our business and execute on our business plan.

 

The continued development of our business will require significant additional financing following the sale of the Shares, and there is no assurance that we will obtain the financing necessary to be able to achieve our business objectives. Our ability to obtain additional financing will depend on investor demand, our performance and reputation, economic and market conditions and other factors. Our inability to raise such capital could result in the delay or indefinite postponement of our current business objectives or in our inability to continue to carry on our business. There can be no assurance that additional capital or other types of financing will be available if needed or that, if available, the terms of such financing will be favorable to us.

 

Our efforts to grow our business may be costlier than anticipated.

 

Our efforts to grow our business may be costlier than we expect and we may not be able to increase our revenue enough to offset higher operating expenses. We may incur significant losses in the



future for a number of reasons, including as a result of unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications and delays, the other risks described herein and other unknown events.

 

We may be unable to achieve our projected revenue growth.

Our ability to achieve our projected revenue growth will depend on a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including, but not limited to, the availability of sufficient capital on suitable terms and competition from others. In addition, we are subject to a variety of business risks generally associated with developing companies. Future development and expansion could place significant strain on our management personnel and likely will require us to recruit additional management personnel, and there is no assurance that we will be able to do so.

We may be unable to attract or retain key personnel with sufficient experience, and we may be unable to attract, develop and retain additional employees required for our development and future success.

 

Our success is largely dependent on the performance of our management team and certain employees and our continuing ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain highly qualified and skilled employees. Qualified individuals are in high demand, and we may incur significant costs to attract and retain them. The loss of the services of any key personnel, or an inability to attract other suitably qualified persons when needed, could prevent us from executing on our business plan and strategy, and we may be unable to find adequate replacements on a timely basis, or at all. We do not currently maintain key-person insurance on the lives of any of our key personnel.

 

Our directors and officers are engaged in other business activities.

 

We are subject to various potential conflicts of interest because some of our directors and officers may be engaged in a range of business activities. These business interests could require the investment of significant time and attention by our directors and officers.

 

Actual results may vary materially from any projections provided to you.

 

Any financial projections which were provided to you are forward-looking statements that are based on assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. While all financial projections and estimates are necessarily speculative, we believe that the preparation of prospective financial information involves increasingly higher levels of uncertainty the further out the projection and estimate extend from the date of preparation. The assumptions and estimates underlying the projected and expected results are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic, regulatory and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the financial projections, estimates and targets. The inclusion of financial projection and estimates in any presentation to you should not be regarded as an indication that we or our representatives considered or consider the financial projections and estimates to be a reliable predication of future events.

 

We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements or projections; whether as a result of new information, future event or otherwise except as required

by law. Important factors, among others that may affect actual results, including our ability to execute on our plans and strategies and the timing of these programs, our estimates of expenses and future revenues and profitability. Our estimates of the size of the markets for our products, our ability to protect our intellectual property rights, our estimate regarding our capital currency requirements, developments in the regulatory environment and general economic and market conditions impacting demand for our products.

 

Risks Related to the Sale of Shares

Your ability to liquidate your investment in the Shares will be limited because of the lack of a trading market in, and restrictions on the resale or transfer of, the Shares.

You should view the acquisition of the Shares as an illiquid investment, and you must be prepared to hold your investment indefinitely. There is no trading market for the Shares and it is uncertain when, if ever, one will develop. The Shares are not listed on a securities exchange or quoted in the over-the-counter market. In addition, subject to the limited exceptions set forth in the Company’s organizational documents, any transfer of the Shares requires the approval of the Board. The organizational documents also provide for significant restrictions on the rights of stockholders to transfer Shares. Such restrictions may adversely impact the value of the Shares.

 

Moreover, we will issue the Shares pursuant to exemptions from registration contained in rules promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and under applicable state laws. Consequently, such securities will be subject to restrictions on transferability and resale and may not be transferred or resold except as permitted under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. You cannot transfer these securities except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration. Any such resales or transfers must also comply with any applicable state securities law requirements. We may refuse to effect certain transfers of the Shares if such transfers would result in a violation of federal or state securities laws or the terms of the organizational documents.

 

The consideration for the Shares was arbitrarily determined by us.

 

The price at which the Shares are being issued to you is not necessarily indicative of the value of our assets, earnings, or book value. You should not regard the purchase price of the Shares as an indication of the current or future value of the Company. We cannot provide any assurance that the Shares could be sold for the purchase price or for any amount.

 

Dividends are not guaranteed.

We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to make any dividends from operations or any distribution upon the ultimate sale or other disposition of the Company or our assets. Dividends, if any, will at all times be subject to the prior payment of expenses and establishment and maintenance of reserves, and subject to the determination of the Board.

You will be a minority equity holder of the Company.

Your Shares represent a minority of the equity interests of the Company. The interests of those stockholders holding a majority of the equity interests may differ from your interests and other holders of a minority of the equity interests with respect to the issuance of equity, business transactions with or sales to other companies, selection of officers and managers and other business decisions. Accordingly, you will not be able to significantly influence management decisions.

 

Stockholders may suffer substantial dilution from future issuances of equity or securities exercisable, convertible or exchangeable into equity of the Company.

 

We may issue additional equity or securities exercisable, convertible or exchangeable into equity of the Company in the next several months and years, either in connection with attracting or retaining management, employees or consultants, or in private offerings to meet working capital requirements and to fund growth and expansion. Any grants or sales of additional equity will have a dilutive effect on the existing stockholders, which could adversely affect the value of the Shares.
