WHEREAS, the Company desires to raise capital to fund its ongoing operations and obligations by offering and issuing promissory notes convertible into a certain proposed series of equity securities to an aggregate amount of a minimum principal amount of $1,062,500 (the “Minimum Amount) and a maximum principal amount of $3,000,000 (the “Maximum Amount”), subject to the conditions specified herein (the “Offering);and

 

WHEREAS, the Company issued on September 1, 2023 promissory notes aggregating $800,000 which, on their terms, are convertible into the securities offered in the Offering;

1.    Purchase of Note. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Investor agrees to purchase, and the Company agrees to sell and issue to the Investor, an unsecured convertible promissory note, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Note”), in exchange for the amount indicated on Schedule A (the “Purchase Price”).

Up to forty five (45) days after the Closing, Cross River agrees to purchase an additional $250,000 principal amount of Notes provided that the OilServ Investors contemporaneously invest an additional $312,500 principal amount of Notes (such event to be the “Second Closing”). Additionally, the Company may issue Notes, as defined at the end of this Section 2.2, representing up to the balance of the Maximum Amount not sold at the Closing and the Second Closing to additional investors (the “Additional Investors”).

The Company and each of the subsidiaries of the Company as set forth in the Exhibit 21.1 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company formed or acquired after the date hereof (the “Subsidiary” or “Subsidiaries”) is an entity duly incorporated or otherwise organized, validly existing, and, if applicable under the laws of the jurisdiction in which they are formed, in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, with the requisite power and authority to own and use its properties and assets and to carry on its business as currently conducted. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation or default of any of the provisions of its respective memorandum of association, articles of association, certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws, operating agreement, or other organizational or charter documents that would constitute a Material Adverse Effect (defined below). Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries is duly qualified to conduct business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the case may be, could not have or reasonably be expected to result in: (i) a material adverse effect on the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement and any other documents or agreements executed in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder, including but not limited to the form of convertible promissory note (the “Transaction Documents”), (ii) material adverse effect on the results of operations, assets, business, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (iii) a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to perform in any material respect on a timely basis its obligations under any Transaction Document (any of (i), (ii) or (iii), a “Material Adverse Effect”) and no proceeding has been instituted in any such jurisdiction revoking, limiting or curtailing or seeking to revoke, limit or curtail such power and authority or qualification.

 

3.2.    Authorization; Enforcement. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Company and no further action is required by the Company.. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party has been (or upon delivery will have been) duly executed by the Company and, when delivered in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, will constitute the valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, and (iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions may be limited by applicable law.

3.3.    Duly Issued; Nonassessable. The Conversion Shares issuable upon any conversion of the Note, if any such conversion event occurs pursuant to the terms set forth in the Note, will be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable stock of the Company and free of any lien, charge, pledge, security interest, encumbrance, right of first refusal, preemptive right or other restriction (collectively, “Liens”) and issued in compliance with all applicable federal and securities laws.

 

3.4.    Subsidiaries. The Company owns, directly or indirectly, all of the capital shares or other equity interests of each Subsidiary, free and clear of any Liens, and all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of each Subsidiary are validly issued and are fully paid, non-assessable and free of preemptive and similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities.

There is no action, suit, inquiry, notice of violation, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties before or by any court, arbitrator, governmental or administrative agency or regulatory authority (federal, state, county, local or foreign) (collectively, an “Action”), except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, as defined in Section 3.6 of this Agreement. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, nor any director or officer thereof, is or has been the subject of any Action involving a claim of violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty, which could result in a Material Adverse Effect. There has not been, and to the knowledge of the Company, there is not pending or contemplated, any investigation by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) involving the Company or any current or former director or officer of the Company. The Commission has not issued any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement filed by the Company or any Subsidiary under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”).

 

3.6.    Financial Statements. The Company has filed all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) thereof, for the one year preceding the date hereof (or such shorter period as the Company was required by law or regulation to file such materials) (the foregoing materials, including the exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein, being collectively referred to herein as the “SEC Reports”). As of their respective dates, the SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as applicable, and none of the SEC Reports, when filed, 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Company has never been an issuer subject to Rule 144(i) under the Securities Act. The financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Reports comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the Commission with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), except as may be otherwise specified in such financial statements or the notes thereto and except that unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP, and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, immaterial, year-end audit adjustments.

The Company has not issued any capital stock since its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act, other than pursuant to the exercise of employee stock options under the Company’s stock option plans, the issuance of shares of Common Stock to employees pursuant to the Company’s employee stock purchase plans and pursuant to the conversion and/or exercise of any securities of the Company or the Subsidiaries which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including, without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Stock (“Common Stock Equivalents”) outstanding as of the date of the most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act except for any equity that may be issued by the Company contemporaneously with the question of certain assets of OilServ, LLC and its affiliates. No Person has any right of first refusal, preemptive right, right of participation, or any similar right to participate in the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. As a result of the purchase and sale of the Securities as defined in Section 3.8, there are no outstanding options, warrants, scrip rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities, rights or obligations convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or giving any Person any right to subscribe for or acquire, any shares of Common Stock, or contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents. The issuance and sale of the Securities will not result in a right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under any of such securities. There are no outstanding securities or instruments of the Company or any Subsidiary with any provision that adjusts the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price of such security or instrument upon an issuance of securities by the Company or any Subsidiary. There are no outstanding securities or instruments of the Company or any Subsidiary that contain any redemption or similar provisions, and there are no contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any Subsidiary is or may become bound to redeem a security of the Company or such Subsidiary.

3.9.    Use of Proceeds. The Company will use the proceeds of sale and issuance of the Note for the operations of its business, and not for any personal, family or household purpose.

3.11.    Disclosure. Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Company confirms that it has not provided any of the Investors or their agents or counsel with any information that it believes constitutes or might constitute material, non-public information which is not otherwise disclosed in the SEC Reports.

4.8.    Professional Advice. The Investor has relied upon the advice of the Investor’s legal counsel and/or accountants and/or other financial advisors with respect to tax and other considerations relating to the purchase of the Note. The Investor is not relying upon the Company with respect to the economic considerations involved to make an investment decision in the Note.

4.11.    Tax Consequences. The investment in the Note may have tax consequences under applicable taxation laws, that it is the sole responsibility of the Investor to determine and assess such tax consequences as may apply to the Investor’s particular circumstances, and the Investor has not received and is not relying on the Company for any tax advice whatsoever.
