AMENDMENT TO TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS

 

This Amendment to Transaction Documents (“Amendment”) is made and entered into on March 4, 2020 (“Amendment Date”), by and between CleanSpark, Inc., a Nevada corporation, (“Company”), and the investor whose name appears below (“Investor”).

Recitals

A.       On December 31, 2018, Company and Investor entered into a Purchase Agreement (“First Agreement”) pursuant to which Investor purchased a Senior Secured Debenture with an initial Face Value of $5,250,000.00 (“First Debenture”), shares of Common Stock, and a Warrant.

B.       On April 17, 2019, Company and Investor entered into a Purchase Agreement (“Second Agreement” and collectively with the First Agreement, the “Agreements”) pursuant to which Investor purchased a Senior Secured Debenture an initial Face Value of $10,750,000.00 (“Second Debenture” and collectively with the First Debenture, the “Debentures”), shares of Common Stock, and a Warrant.

C.       The Debentures rank senior to all Common Stock and preferred stock, and all existing and future indebtedness of Company. The Debentures constitute debt instruments, and Investor is a lender and creditor of Company. Investor is and will only be an equity security holder if and to the extent that Investor actually converts the Debentures into Common Stock as provided in the Debentures.

D.       Investor has at all times fully and completely complied with all of its obligations under the Agreements and the Debentures. All Delivery Notices and calculations provided to Company by Investor were and are fully correct and accurate in all respects.

E.        On December 11, 2019, Company effected a reverse stock split at a ratio one-for-ten (“Reverse Split”).

F.       As an accommodation to Company and in order to help facilitate implementation of Company’s business plan, Investor is willing to amend the Agreements and Debentures in accordance with the terms hereof.

G.       Certain capitalized terms used herein, but not otherwise defined herein, have the meanings given to such terms in the Agreements and other Transaction Documents as defined therein.

Agreement

In consideration of the premises, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, Company and Investor agree as follows:

1.       Recitals. The Recitals set forth above are incorporated into and are made a part of this Amendment, and the parties hereto represent they are true, accurate and correct in all respects.

  
 

 

2.       Amendments. Effective as of the Amendment Date, the following Transaction Documents are hereby amended as follows:

A.       The first sentence of Section I.G.6.e of the Second Debenture, Floor Price, is deleted and replaced with the following: “e. ‘Floor Price’ means $1.50 per share of Common Stock.”

B. A new Section I.G.6.k is added to the First Debenture, Floor Price, as follows: “k. ‘Floor Price’ means $1.50 per share of Common Stock. Provided, however, that the Floor Price will not apply following an Event of Default as defined in the Purchase Agreement.”

C. Section V.G.h of each of the Agreements, Events of Default, is deleted and replaced with the following: “or (h) the Closing Price of the Common Stock is below $1.75 per share for 5 consecutive Trading Days or more.”

D. In Section I.G.6.b of the First Debenture, Conversion Price, the language “$0.12 per share” is deleted and replaced with “the Floor Price.”

D.       Section II.D.2, Second Closing, and II.D.3, Company Option, are deleted from the Second Agreement. Company is authorized to terminate any and all documentation related to the Preferred Stock, including the Certificate of Designation.

E. Section I.G.8, Conversion at Maturity, is deleted from each of the Debentures.

F. For the avoidance of doubt, the numbers provided for above are after giving effect to the Reverse Split. All numbers not amended hereby shall remain as prior to giving effect to the Reverse Split as set forth in the respective document.

3.       No Non-Public Information. Neither Company nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided or will provide Investor or its representatives, agents or attorneys with any information that constitutes or might constitute material, non-public information.

5.       Release. Company, on behalf of itself and on behalf of each of its predecessors, successors, parents, subsidiaries, shareholders, and affiliated and/or related companies, and each of its respective present and former officers, directors, shareholders, employees, representatives, business entities, executors, administrators, conservators, assignors and assignees, hereby knowingly and voluntarily fully and forever absolutely and irrevocably waive, release and discharge Investor and its predecessors, successors, parents, subsidiaries, and affiliated and/or related companies and entities, and each of their respective present and former officers, directors, shareholders, partners, members, employees, representatives, agents, attorneys, advisors, business entities, executors, administrators, conservators, assignors and assignees and all parties acting through, under or in concert with them, and each of them, in their individual and representative capacities, from any and all claims, charges, complaints, grievances, demands, liens, actions, suits, causes of action, obligations, controversies, debts, costs, indemnity, attorneys' fees, expenses, damages, judgments, orders, and liabilities of whatever kind and/or nature in law, equity or otherwise, whether now known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, which have existed or may have existed, or which do exist or which hereafter can, shall or may exist as of the date this Amendment is executed, including without limitation any that are based upon, connected with, or otherwise arising out of or in any way relating to the Transaction Documents.

Company acknowledges that it may hereafter discover facts in addition to or different from those that it now knows to be true with respect to the subject matters of the claims released herein, and hereby stipulates and agrees that it has fully, finally, and forever settled and released any and all such claims, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, contingent or non-contingent, concealed or hidden, which now exist or heretofore existed upon any theory of law or equity now existing or coming into existence in the future, without regard to the discovery or existence of such different or additional facts.

6.       Further Assurances. Each party will take all further actions and execute all further documents as may be reasonably necessary to implement the provisions and carry out the intent of this Amendment fully and effectively.

7.       Ratification. Except as expressly amended by this Amendment, the Agreements, Debentures and other Transaction Documents, which are incorporated by reference as though set forth in full herein, are hereby ratified and affirmed in all respects, and remain in full force and effect. Except as expressly provided herein, the execution of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Investor, constitute a waiver of any provision of any of any Transaction Document or serve to effect a novation of the obligations under any Transaction Document. Except as expressly provided herein, all Transaction Documents between Company and Investor shall continue in full force and effect and nothing herein shall act as a waiver of any of the Investor’s rights under any of the foregoing.

8.       Execution. This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together will be considered one and the same agreement and will become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by portable document format (.pdf), facsimile or electronic transmission, such signature will create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be duly executed by their respective authorized signatories on the Amendment Date.
