Each Tag-Along Shareholder shall have the right to sell in a sale subject to this Section 5.03 the number of Shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the number of Shares held by the Tag-Along Shareholder by (y) a fraction (A) the numerator of which is equal to the number of Shares the Selling Shareholder proposes to sell or transfer to the Proposed Transferee and (B) denominator of which is equal to the number of Shares then owned by such Selling Shareholder.
   
(d) The Selling Shareholder shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in the proposed sale to the Proposed Transferee all of the Shares that the Tag-Along Shareholders have requested to have included pursuant to the applicable Tag-Along Notices, it being understood that the Proposed Transferee shall not be required to purchase Shares in excess of the number set forth in the Sale Notice. In the event the Proposed Transferee elects to purchase less than all of the Shares sought to be sold by the Tag-Along Shareholders, the number of shares to be sold to the Proposed Transferee by the Selling Shareholder and each Tag-Along Shareholder shall be reduced so that each such Shareholder is entitled to sell its pro rata portion of the number of Shares the Proposed Transferee elects to purchase (which in no event may be less than the number of Shares set forth in the Sale Notice).
   
(e) Each Tag-Along Shareholder who does not deliver a Tag-Along Notice in compliance with this Section 5.03 shall be deemed to have waived all of such Tag-Along Shareholder’s rights to participate in such particular sale, and the Selling Shareholder shall (subject to the rights of any participating Tag-Along Shareholder) thereafter be free to sell to the Proposed Transferee its Shares at a per-Share price that is no greater than the per-Share price set forth in the Sale Notice and on other same terms and conditions which are not materially more favorable to the Selling Shareholder than those set forth in the Sale Notice, without any further obligation to the non-accepting Tag-Along Shareholders, subject to the other terms and conditions herein.
   
(f) Each Shareholder participating in a sale pursuant to this Section 5.03 shall receive the same consideration per share after deduction of such Shareholder’s proportionate share of the related expenses in accordance with Section 5.03(h).
   
(g) Each Tag-Along Shareholder shall make or provide the same representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements as the Selling Shareholder makes or provides in connection with the Tag-Along Sale (except that in the case of representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements pertaining specifically to the Selling Shareholder, the Tag-Along Shareholder shall make the comparable representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements pertaining specifically to itself); provided, that all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities shall be made by the Selling Shareholder and each other Tag-Along Shareholder severally and not jointly and any indemnification obligation in respect of breaches of representations and warranties that do not relate to such Tag-Along Shareholder shall be in an amount not to exceed the aggregate proceeds received by such Tag-Along Shareholder in connection with any sale consummated pursuant to this Section 5.03.

 

10
   

 

(h) The fees and expenses of the Selling Shareholder incurred in connection with a sale under this Section 5.03 and for the benefit of all Shareholders (it being understood that costs incurred by or on behalf of the Selling Shareholder for its sole benefit will not be considered to be for the benefit of all Shareholders), to the extent not paid or reimbursed by the Company or the Proposed Transferee, shall be shared by all the Shareholders on a pro rata basis, based on the consideration received by each Shareholder; provided, that no Shareholder shall be obligated to make any out-of-pocket expenditure prior to the consummation of the transaction consummated pursuant to this Section 5.03.
   
(i) Each Shareholder shall take all actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the Tag-Along Sale, including, without limitation, entering into agreements and delivering certificates and instruments, in each case, consistent with the agreements being entered into and the certificates being delivered by the Selling Shareholder.
   
(j) The Selling Shareholder shall have ninety (90) days following the expiration of the Tag-Along Period in which to sell the Shares described in the Sale Notice, on terms not more favorable to the Selling Shareholder than those set forth in the Sale Notice (which such ninety (90) day period may be extended for a reasonable time not to exceed one-hundred-twenty (120) days to the extent reasonably necessary to obtain any regulatory approvals). If at the end of such period the Selling Shareholder has not completed such sale, the Selling Shareholder may not then effect a sale of Shares subject to this Section 5.03 without again fully complying with the provisions of this Section 5.03.
   
(k) If the Selling Shareholder sells or otherwise transfers to the Proposed Transferee any of its Shares in breach of this Section 5.03, then each Tag-Along Shareholder shall have the right to sell to the Selling Shareholder, and the Selling Shareholder undertakes to purchase from each Tag-Along Shareholder, the number of Shares that such Tag-Along Shareholder would have had the right to sell to the Proposed Transferee pursuant to this Section 5.03, for a per-Share amount and form of consideration and upon the term and conditions on which the Proposed Transferee bought such Shares from the Selling Shareholder, but without indemnity being granted by any Tag-Along Shareholder to the Selling Shareholder; provided, that nothing contained in this Section 5.03 shall preclude any Shareholder from seeking alternative remedies against such Selling Shareholder as a result of its breach of this Section 5.03. The Selling Shareholder shall also reimburse each Tag-Along Shareholder for any and all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, incurred pursuant to the exercise or the attempted exercise of the Tag-Along Shareholder’s rights under this Section 5.03(k).

 

Section 5.04 Involuntary Transfers. For purposes hereof, an “Involuntary Transfer” shall mean any Transfer of Shares, or proposed Transfer of Shares, (i) upon any foreclosure of any pledge, encumbrance, hypothecation or mortgage which would result in the Transfer of one or more Shares, (ii) in the case of a Shareholder that is a trust, the termination of the trust, (iii) in the case of a Shareholder that is a partnership, the dissolution and commencement of winding up of the partnership; (iv) in the case of a Shareholder that is an estate, the distribution by the fiduciary of the estate’s interest in the Company; and (v) in the case of a Shareholder that is a corporation, the filing of a certificate of dissolution, or its equivalent, for the corporation or the revocation of its charter. This Article V shall not apply to any Involuntary Transfers.

 

11
   

 

Section 5.05 Santa Monica and Its Transferee(s). For the avoidance of doubt, any Santa Monica Transferee shall have the right to enforce this Article V and participate in any Tag-Along Sale as set forth herein, and shall be a “Shareholders” for purposes of this Article V. For the avoidance of doubt, the calculation of the Shareholders’ pro rata rights pursuant to this Article V shall be calculated as though Santa Monica or the Santa Monica Transferee(s), as applicable, have exercised the New Warrant in full.

 

Article VI. Covenants and Additional Agreements

 

Section 6.01 Board Observer Rights. So long as the Company shall have any obligation under the New Warrant, or in the event any Warrant Shares obtained from the exercise of all, or a portion, of the New Warrant, are issued and outstanding, one individual designated by Santa Monica (the “Santa Monica Representative”) shall have the right, but not the obligation, to attend all meetings of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and to receive all materials related to such meetings as provided by the Board. The Company may exclude the Santa Monica Representative from such attendance, and shall not be required to deliver such materials to the Santa Monica Representative, in each case to the extent that the Company has received an opinion from its legal counsel, which opinion the Company shall submit to Santa Monica prior to the applicable meeting or distribution of materials, that compliance by the Company with this Section 6.01 would violate any applicable law or the fiduciary duties of the members of the Board.

 

Section 6.02 Potential Registration Rights. In the event that, at any time following the Closing Date, the Company grants to any Person any right for such Person to cause the Company to register for resale under the Securities Act any shares of Common Stock held by such Person, the Company agrees that it shall, at such time, offer the same registration rights to any of CareBourn LP, CareBourn LLC, More Capital, Auctus and Santa Monica (or its assignees who are Affiliates of Santa Monica as of the Effective Date) to the extent that any of the forgoing continues to hold any shares of Common Stock at such time, including, in the case of Santa Monica (or its assignees) the New Warrant, or any portion thereof, subject to such Party executing an agreement with the Company in substantially the same form (with respect to such registration rights provisions) as executed by the Person to whom such registration rights are granted, and thereafter in accordance with the provisions therein.

 

Section 6.03 Public Announcements. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law (based upon the reasonable advice of counsel), no Party shall make any public announcements in respect of this Agreement or the Transactions or otherwise communicate with any news media without the prior written consent of the other Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and the Parties shall cooperate as to the timing and contents of any such announcement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Company is required to report this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein on a Form 8-K to be filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Section 6.04 Further Assurances. Following the Effective Date, each Party shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to, execute and deliver such additional documents, instruments, conveyances and assurances and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions hereof and give effect to the Transactions.

Section 6.05 Mutual General Release.

 

(a) Effective as of the Closing, each Party, for itself and its Affiliates, and each of their respective past or present directors, shareholders, officers, managers, members, partners, employees, predecessors, successors, assigns, heirs, representatives, and agents and for all related parties, and all persons acting by, through, under or in concert with any of them in both their official and personal capacities (collectively, the “Releasor Parties”) hereby irrevocably, unconditionally and forever release, discharge and remise each other Party and its Affiliates (whether an Affiliate as of the Effective Date or later), and their respective past or present directors, shareholders, officers, managers, members, partners, employees, predecessors, successors, assigns, heirs, representatives, and agents and for all related parties and all persons acting by, through, under or in concert with any of them in both their official and personal capacities (collectively, the “Released Parties”), from all claims of any type and all manner of action and actions, cause and causes of action, suits, debts, dues, sums of money, accounts, reckonings, bonds, bills, specialties, covenants, contracts, controversies, agreements, promises, variances, trespasses, damages, judgments, executions, claims and demands whatsoever, in law or in equity, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected that any Releasor Party may have now or may have in the future, against any of the Released Parties to the extent that those claims arose, may have arisen, or are based on or related to events or actions which occurred at any point in the past, from the beginning of time, and up to and including the Closing Date, including, without limitation, any such matters related to, or arising from, the business of the Company and its Affiliates, the Assets, the customers of the Company and its Affiliates, including, but not limited to, any transactions or actions with, or involving, said customers, any promissory notes, warrants or other agreements between any two or more of the Parties, including, but not limited to, the Ngen Texas Agreements and the Security Agreement, or the transactions contemplated therein, including, but not limited to, the Foreclosure, but excluding, for greater certainty, the obligations of Released Party hereunder or pursuant to any other Transaction Document (collectively, the “Released Claims”). Each Party represents and warrants that no Released Claim released herein has been assigned, expressly, impliedly, or by operation of law, and that all Released Claims released herein are owned by the Party releasing the same, which has the respective sole authority to release them. Each releasing Party agrees that it shall forever refrain and forebear from commencing, instituting or prosecuting any lawsuit action or proceeding, judicial, administrative or otherwise collect or enforce any Released Claim which is released and discharged herein. For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of Santa Monica the respective terms “Releasor Parties” and “Released Parties” shall be defined to include, but shall not be limited to, the following persons: Yaakov G. Vanek, Eric J. Weissman and Wilshire Pacific Capital Advisors LLC.

(b) Waiver of California Civil Code Section 1542.

 

  (i) Each of the Parties hereby waives any and all rights which it may have with respect to this Agreement or the subject matter hereof, under the provisions of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California as now worded and as hereafter amended, which section provides that:

 

“A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.”

 

  (ii) It is understood and agreed by each of the Parties that the facts in respect to which this Agreement is executed may turn out to be other than or different from the facts in the respect now known or believed by each of the Parties to be true; and with such understanding and agreement, each Party expressly accepts and assumes the risk of facts being other than or different from the assumptions and perceptions as of any date prior to and including the date hereof, and agrees that this Agreement shall be in all respects effective and shall not be subject to termination or rescission by reasons of any such difference in facts.

 

(c) Each of the Releasor Parties agrees not to file for themselves or on behalf of any other parties, any claim, charge, complaint, action, or cause of action against any Party related to the Released Claims, and further agrees to indemnify and save harmless each other Party from and against any and all losses, including, without limitation, the cost of defense and legal fees, occurring as a result of any claims, charges, complaints, actions, or causes of action made or brought by any such Releasor Party against any Party in violation of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In the event that any Releasor Party brings a suit against any other Party in violation of this covenant, the Releasor Party agrees to pay any and all costs of the other Party against whom such a claim is brought, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by such other Party in challenging such action. Any Released Party is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.
   
(d) Each Releasor Party affirms that it has not filed, caused to be filed, or presently is a party to any claim, complaint, or action against any other Party in any forum or form and should any such charge or action be filed by any Releasor Party or by any other person or entity on any Releasor Party’s behalf involving matters covered by this Section 6.05, the Releasor Party agrees to promptly give the agency or court having jurisdiction a copy of this Agreement and inform them that any such claims any such Releasor Party might otherwise have had are now settled.
   
(e) Neither this Agreement nor the furnishing of any consideration concurrently with the execution hereof shall be deemed or construed at any time or for any purpose as an admission by any Party of any liability or obligation of any kind. Any such liability or wrongdoing is expressly denied. The Parties hereto acknowledge that this Agreement was reached after good faith settlement negotiations and after each party had an opportunity to consult legal counsel. This Agreement extends to, and is for the benefit of, the Parties, their respective successors, assigns and agents and anyone claiming by, through or under the Parties hereto.

 

Section 6.06 Default. If any Party fails to perform any of its material obligations under this Agreement, or is in breach in any material respect of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of such Party set forth in this Agreement, and, if such breach or failure is capable of being cured, such failure or breach has not been cured within 5 Business Days after receipt of notice of such breach by such Party, then such Party (the “Defaulting Party”) shall be in default hereunder (such event, a “Default”). In the event of a Default, any other Party shall be entitled to bring an action for specific performance of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.09 and proceed against such Defaulting Party for any Losses incurred by such other Party as a result of the Default by such Defaulting Party. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge and agree that no Party shall be responsible for, or shall be required to pay any Losses or other damages, resulting from a Default which was caused by any other Party.

Article VII. Indemnification

 

Section 7.01 General Indemnification. Subject to the provisions of this Article VII, each Party (an “Indemnifying Party”) agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each other Party and their respective Affiliates and each of their respective directors, officers, managers, partners, employees, agents, equity holders, consultants, counsel, accountants and other successors and assigns (each, an “Indemnified Party”), from and against any and all Losses incurred or suffered by any Indemnified Party arising out of, based upon or resulting from any breach of any representations or warranties of the Indemnifying Party herein or breach by the Indemnifying Party of, or any failure of the Indemnifying Party to perform, any of the covenants, agreements or obligations contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement by the Indemnifying Party.

 

Section 7.02 Procedures for Indemnification.

 

(a) All claims for indemnification by any Indemnified Party under this Article VII shall be asserted and resolved as follows:

 

  (i) In the event any claim or demand in respect of which an Indemnified Party might seek indemnity under this Article VII is asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a Person other than a Party or an Affiliate thereof (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall deliver a written notification, enclosing a copy of all papers served, if any, and specifying the nature of and basis for such Third Party Claim and for the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification that is being asserted under any provision of this Article VII against an Indemnifying Party, together with the amount or, if not then reasonably ascertainable, the estimated amount, determined in good faith, of such Third Party Claim (a “Claim Notice”) with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to provide the Claim Notice with reasonable promptness after the Indemnified Party receives notice of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim to the extent that the Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend has been prejudiced by such failure of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party as soon as practicable within the period ending thirty (30) Business Days following receipt by the Indemnifying Party of either a Claim Notice or an Indemnity Notice (as defined below) (the “Dispute Period”) whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability or the amount of its liability to the Indemnified Party under this Article VII and whether the Indemnifying Party desires, at its sole cost and expense, to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim.

 

15
   

 

  (ii) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim pursuant to this Article VII, then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, such Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be vigorously and diligently prosecuted by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party (but only with the consent of the Indemnified Party in the case of any settlement that provides for any relief other than the payment of monetary damages or that provides for the payment of monetary damages as to which the Indemnified Party shall not be indemnified in full pursuant to this Article VII). The Indemnifying Party shall have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnified Party, at any time prior to the Indemnifying Party’s delivery of the notice referred to in the first sentence of this Section 7.02(a)(ii), file any motion, answer or other pleadings or take any other action that the Indemnified Party reasonably believes to be necessary or appropriate to protect its interests; and provided, further, that if requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnifying Party in contesting any Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party elects to contest. The Indemnified Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 7.02(a)(ii), and except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Indemnified Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party may take over the control of the defense or settlement of a Third Party Claim at any time if it irrevocably waives its right to indemnity under this Article VII with respect to such Third Party Claim.
     
  (iii) If the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Third Party Claim pursuant to this Article VII, or if the Indemnifying Party gives such notice but fails to prosecute vigorously and diligently or settle the Third Party Claim, or if the Indemnifying Party fails to give any notice whatsoever within the Dispute Period, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be prosecuted by the Indemnified Party in a reasonable manner and in good faith or will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnified Party(with the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld). The Indemnified Party will have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that if requested by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnified Party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim which the Indemnified Party is contesting. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.02(a)(iii), if the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability or the amount of its liability hereunder to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim and if such dispute is resolved in favor of the Indemnifying Party in the manner provided in Section 7.02(a)(iv) the Indemnifying Party will not be required to bear the costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s defense pursuant to this Section 7.02(a)(iii) or of the Indemnifying Party’s participation therein at the Indemnified Party’s request, and the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party in full for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnifying Party in connection with such litigation. The Indemnifying Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 7.02(a)(iii), and the Indemnifying Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.

 

16
   

 

  (iv) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it does not dispute its liability or the amount of its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability or the amount of its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim, the amount of Damages specified in the Claim Notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under this Article VII and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Damages to the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability or the amount of its liability with respect to such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute; provided, however, that if the dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) Business Days after the Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to institute such legal action as it deems appropriate.
     
  (v) In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim under this Article VII against the Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall deliver a written notification of a claim for indemnity under this Article VII specifying the nature of and basis for such claim, together with the amount or, if not then reasonably ascertainable, the estimated amount, determined in good faith, of such claim (an “Indemnity Notice”) with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. The failure by any Indemnified Party to give the Indemnity Notice shall not impair such Party’s rights hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that it has been irreparably prejudiced thereby. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it does not dispute the claim or the amount of the claim described in such Indemnity Notice or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party disputes the claim or the amount of the claim described in such Indemnity Notice, the amount of Damages specified in the Indemnity Notice will be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under this Article VII and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Damages to the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability or the amount of its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute; provided, however, that if the dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) Business Days after the Claim Notice, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.08.

 

(b) The Indemnifying Party agrees to pay the Indemnified Party, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such claim.

 

17
   

 

(c) The indemnification provisions contained in this Article VII shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar rights of the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the Indemnifying Party may be subject to.

 

Section 7.03 Payment. Upon a determination of liability under this Article VII, the Indemnifying Party shall pay or cause to be paid to the Indemnified Party the amount so determined within five (5) Business Days after the date of such determination. If there should be a dispute as to the amount or manner of determination of any indemnity obligation owed under this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall nevertheless pay when due such portion, if any, of the obligation that is not subject to dispute. Upon the payment in full of any amounts due under this Article VII with respect to any claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to the rights of the Indemnified Party against any Person with respect to the subject matter of such claim.

 

Section 7.04 Effect of Knowledge on Indemnification. The right to indemnification, reimbursement or other remedy based upon any representations, warranties, covenants and obligations set forth in this Agreement shall not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation. The waiver of any condition based upon the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or obligation, shall not affect the right to indemnification, reimbursement or other remedy based upon such representations, warranties, covenants or obligations.

Mediation fees, if any, shall be divided equally between the Parties who are a party to such controversy, claim, or dispute. The Parties agree that if any Party commences arbitration without first attempting to resolve the matter through mediation, or refuses to mediate after a request has been made, then that Party shall not be entitled to recover attorney’s fees, even if said fees would otherwise be available to that party in any such action. All controversies, disputes or actions among the Parties arising out of the Transactions or this Agreement, including their respective Affiliates, owners, officers, directors, agents and employees, arising from, or relating to, this Agreement (including with respect to the meaning, effect, validity, termination, interpretation, performance, enforcement of this Agreement or the determination of the scope or applicability of this Agreement to arbitrate) which are not settled in mediation shall on demand of any Party be submitted for arbitration to in accordance with the rules and regulations of the American Arbitration Association.

The Parties agree to be bound by the provisions of any limitation on the period of time by which claims must be brought under Nevada law or any applicable federal law. The arbitrator(s) shall have the right to award the relief which he or she deems proper, consistent with the terms of this Agreement, including compensatory damages (with interest on unpaid amounts from due date), injunctive relief, specific performance, attorney’s fees and costs, except that in no event, and under no circumstances, shall the arbitrator(s) have the authority to award special, general, indirect, consequential, or punitive or exemplary damages, including damages for lost profits or lost opportunity.

Section 8.11 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions are fulfilled to the extent possible.

 

Section 8.12 Entire Agreement.

All payments shall be made at such address as the Holder shall hereafter give to the Borrower by written notice made in accordance with the provisions of this Note. Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Note is due on any day which is not a business day, the same shall instead be due on the next succeeding day which is a business day and, in the case of any interest payment date which is not the date on which this Note is paid in full, the extension of the due date thereof shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of interest due on such date. As used in this Note, the term “business day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which commercial banks in the city of New York, New York are authorized or required by law or executive order to remain closed. Each capitalized term used herein, and not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in that certain Restructuring, Settlement and Release Agreement between the Borrower, the Holder and the other parties thereto, dated the date hereof, pursuant to which this Note was originally issued (the “Purchase Agreement”).

 

This Note is free from all taxes, liens, claims and encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and shall not be subject to preemptive rights or other similar rights of shareholders of the Borrower and will not impose personal liability upon the holder thereof.

Subject to the other provisions of this Note, the Principal Amount and all accrued and unpaid interest on this Note shall be due and payable in full on the earlier of: (i) the Maturity Date, or (ii) the date on which a Change in Control (as defined below) of the Company occurs. For purposes herein, a “Change of Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if, after the Issue Date, there shall have occurred any of the following:

  (ii) the consummation of a merger, consolidation, acquisition, separation, reorganization, or similar occurrence, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, where the Company is not the surviving entity or where the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction do not continue to hold at least a majority of the voting power of the Company following the consummation of such transaction; or

Section 2.03 Breach of Representations and Warranties. Any representation or warranty of the Borrower made herein or in any agreement, statement or certificate given in writing pursuant hereto or in connection herewith (including, without limitation, the Restructuring Agreement), shall be false or misleading in any material respect when made and the breach of which has (or with the passage of time will have) a material adverse effect on the rights of the Holder with respect to this Note or the Restructuring Agreement.

 

Section 2.04 Receiver or Trustee. The Borrower or any subsidiary of the Borrower shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver or trustee for it or for a substantial part of its property or business, or such a receiver or trustee shall otherwise be appointed.

All rights and remedies existing hereunder are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

 

Section 3.02 Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered in accordance with the provisions of the Restructuring Agreement.

 

Section 3.03 Amendments. This Note and any provision hereof may only be amended by an instrument in writing signed by the Borrower and the Holder. The term “Note” and all reference thereto, as used throughout this instrument, shall mean this instrument (and the other Notes issued pursuant to the Restructuring Agreement) as originally executed, or if later amended or supplemented, then as so amended or supplemented.

 

Section 3.04 Assignability. This Note shall be binding upon the Borrower and its successors and assigns, and shall inure to be the benefit of the Holder and its successors and assigns. Each transferee of this Note must be an “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a) of the 1933 Act). Notwithstanding anything in this Note to the contrary, this Note may be pledged as collateral in connection with a bona fide margin account or other lending arrangement.

Section 3.06 Governing Law.

 

  (a) This Note shall be delivered and accepted in and shall be deemed to be contracts made under and governed by the internal laws of the State of Nevada, and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the laws of such State, without giving effect to the choice of law provisions of such state.

 

 3 

 

 

  (b) Any action brought by either party against the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this Note shall be brought only in the state courts or federal courts located in the state of Texas, Dallas County. The parties to this Note hereby irrevocably waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue or based upon forum non conveniens. The Borrower and Holder waive trial by jury. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs. In the event that any provision of this Note or any other agreement delivered in connection herewith is invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of any agreement. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any suit, action or proceeding in connection with this Note by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Note and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

 

Section 3.07 Usury Savings Clause. Notwithstanding any provision in this Note or the other Transaction Documents to the contrary, the total liability for payments of interest and payments in the nature of interest, including, without limitation, all charges, fees, exactions, or other sums which may at any time be deemed to be interest, shall not exceed the limit imposed by the usury laws of the jurisdiction governing this Note or any other applicable law. In the event the total liability of payments of interest and payments in the nature of interest, including, without limitation, all charges, fees, exactions or other sums which may at any time be deemed to be interest, shall, for any reason whatsoever, result in an effective rate of interest, which for any month or other interest payment period exceeds the limit imposed by the usury laws of the jurisdiction governing this Note, all sums in excess of those lawfully collectible as interest for the period in question shall, without further agreement or notice by, between, or to any party hereto, be applied to the reduction of the outstanding principal balance due hereunder immediately upon receipt of such sums by the Holder hereof, with the same force and effect as though the Company had specifically designated such excess sums to be so applied to the reduction of the principal balance then outstanding, and the Holder hereof had agreed to accept such sums as a penalty-free payment of principal; provided, however, that the Holder may, at any time and from time to time, elect, by notice in writing to the Company, to waive, reduce, or limit the collection of any sums in excess of those lawfully collectible as interest, rather than accept such sums as a prepayment of the principal balance then outstanding. It is the intention of the parties that the Company does not intend or expect to pay, nor does the Holder intend or expect to charge or collect any interest under this Note greater than the highest non-usurious rate of interest which may be charged under applicable law.

 

Section 3.08 Restructuring Agreement. By its acceptance of this Note, each Party agrees to be bound by the applicable terms of the Restructuring Agreement.

 

Section 3.09 Remedies. The Borrower acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder, by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Borrower acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Note will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Borrower of the provisions of this Note, that the Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies at law or in equity, and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or injunctions restraining, preventing or curing any breach of this Note and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

Warrant for the Purchase of Shares of Common Stock

 

[Santa Monica Venture Finance, Inc.]

 

Issue Date: March 31, 2020

 

1,405,500 shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment as set forth herein.

 

THIS CERTIFIES that, for value received, Santa Monica Venture Finance, Inc., a California corporation (the “Holder”), is entitled to subscribe for and purchase from Ngen Technologies Holdings Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, 1,405,500 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) of the Company (which such number of shares subject to adjustment as set forth herein, the “Warrant Shares”), at an exercise price of $0.0000071149 per Warrant Share (the “Exercise Price”), as adjusted pursuant to the provisions herein. As used herein the term “Warrant” shall mean and include this Warrant and warrants hereafter issued as a consequence of the exercise or transfer of this Warrant in whole or in part. The Company represents and warrants that the aggregate number of Warrant Shares, as stated herein, is intended to represent a percentage equal to 31.52% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company, as of the Issue Date, assuming, for the purposes of the calculation, the full exercise of the Warrant, as of the Issue Date, and the inclusion of all Warrant Shares in the outstanding number of shares. In the event that, following the Issue Date and prior to full exercise of this Warrant, the Company and the Holder determine that there are in excess of, or less than, 3,053,620 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the Issue Date, the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable shall be automatically adjusted such that the number of Warrant Shares equals 31.52% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company, as of the Issue Date, assuming, for the purposes of the calculation, the full exercise of the Warrant, as of the Issue Date, and the inclusion of all Warrant Shares in the outstanding number of shares.

 

This Warrant is issued to Holder pursuant to the Restructuring, Settlement and Release Agreement entered into by and between the Company, the Holder and the other parties thereto, dated as of March 31, 2020 (the “Restructuring Agreement”) and is subject to the terms and conditions therein. In the event of a conflict between the Restructuring Agreement and this Warrant, the terms and conditions of this Warrant shall control.

 

1
 

 

1. Defined Terms. Defined terms used herein without definition have the meanings given in the Restructuring Agreement, and the following terms shall have the following meanings:

 

  (a) “Parties” means the Holder and the Company.
     
  (b) “Party” means either the Holder or the Company, as applicable.

 

2. Exercise Period. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, this Warrant may be exercised at any time or from time to time during the ten-year period commencing on the Issue Date as set forth above and ending of the tenth anniversary of the date hereof (the “Exercise Period”).
   
3. Procedure for Exercise; Effect of Exercise.

 

  (a) Cash Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part, by the Holder during normal business hours on any business day during the Exercise Period by (i) the presentation to the Company at its principal office along of a duly executed Notice of Exercise (in the form attached hereto) specifying the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased (each of which shall constitute at least one share of Common Stock, and integral multiples thereof), and (ii) delivery of payment to the Company of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares being purchase as specified in the Notice of Exercise by cash, wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account specified by the Company, or by certified or bank cashier’s check. The Holder shall not be required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise hereunder. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. Any fractional Warrant Shares that may be issued on exercise of this Warrant may be issued as such fractional shares of Common Stock, may be paid in cash or may be rounded up to the next nearest share of Common Stock, in each case at the election of the Company.
     
  (b) Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding Section 3(a) if the “Fair Market Value” (as defined below) of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Exercise Price, the Holder may elect to receive Warrant Shares pursuant to a cashless exercise, in lieu of a cash exercise, equal to the value of this Warrant determined in the manner described below (or of any portion thereof remaining unexercised) by surrender of this Warrant and a Notice of Exercise, in which event the Company shall issue to Holder a number of Common Stock computed using the following formula:

 

X = Y (A-B)

 

A

 

Where:

 

  X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to Holder.
     
  Y = the number of Warrant Shares that the Holder elects to purchase under this Warrant (at the date of such calculation).

 

2
 

 

  A = Fair Market Value of a Warrant Share at the date of such calculation.
     
  B = Exercise Price, as adjusted to the date of calculation.

 

For purposes of this Warrant, the per share “Fair Market Value” shall mean (i) if the Common Stock is then listed for trading on the OTC Markets or a United States or Canadian national securities exchange (as applicable, the “Trading Market”), the highest traded price of the Common Stock during the twenty (20) day period during which the Common Stock is then tradeable on the primary Trading Market prior to the date of the applicable Exercise Notice or (ii) if the Common Stock is not then listed for trading on the OTC Markets or a United States or Canadian national securities exchange, the per share fair market value of the Warrant Shares as is determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company after taking into consideration factors it deems appropriate, Including, without limitation, recent sale and offer prices of the capital stock of the Company in private transactions negotiated at arm’s length.

 

  (c) Effect of Exercise. Upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant and a Notice of Exercise, together with proper payment of the Exercise Price (if applicable), as provided herein, the Company agrees that such Warrant Shares shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder as the record holder of such Warrant Shares as of the close of business on the date on which the Notice of Exercise has been delivered and payment has been made for such Warrant Shares in accordance with this Warrant and the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Warrant Shares, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that certificates representing such Warrant Shares shall not then be actually delivered to the Holder. A stock certificate or certificates for the Warrant Shares specified in the Notice of Exercise shall be delivered to the Holder as promptly as practicable, and in any event within three (3) business days, thereafter. The stock certificate(s) so delivered shall be in any such denominations as may be reasonably specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise.
     
  (d) Certain Adjustments. The number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price therefor shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events, as follows:

 

  (i) Adjustments Due to Splits and Stock Dividends. If at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company: (x) pays a dividend or makes any other distribution upon the shares, or any other securities of the Company, payable in shares, convertible securities or equity-linked securities of the Company, or (y) effects a forward split or reverse split of the Common Stock, which shall include a recapitalization, combination or otherwise, the number of Warrant Shares shall be appropriately adjusted, with any partial resulting Warrant Share being rounded up to the next nearest whole number, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder shall remain unchanged. By way of example and not limitation, (i) in the event that the Company effects a two-for-one forward split of the Common Stock, wherein each issued and outstanding share of Common Stock is converted into two shares of Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares shall be doubled and the Exercise Price shall be reduced by 50% and (ii) in the event that the Company effects a one-for-two reverse split of the Common Stock, wherein each two issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock are converted into one share of Common Stock, the number of Warrant Shares shall be reduced by 50% and the Exercise Price shall be doubled.

  (ii) Adjustments Due to Share Issuances. In at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company issues any shares of Common Stock upon conversion of any promissory notes, exercise of warrants or other convertible or equity-linked securities, which in each case are issued and outstanding as of the Issue Date as set forth above and which are held by any of Carebourn Capital, LP, a Delaware Limited Partnership (“CareBourn LP”), CareBourn, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“CareBourn LLC”), More Capital LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company (“More Capital”), or Auctus Fund, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Auctus”), then the number of Warrant Shares shall be appropriately adjusted to add a number of Warrant Shares hereunder equal to (i) the number of shares of Common Stock issued CareBourn LP, CareBourn LLC, More Capital or Auctus, as applicable, multiplied by (ii) 46%. By way of example and not limitation, in the event that CareBourn LP exercises a warrant referenced above and acquires 100 shares of Common Stock thereunder, this Warrant shall be automatically adjustment to add 46 Warrant Shares to the total number of Warrant Shares which may be acquired hereunder, with the intent that Holder retains the right to acquire 31.52% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock at such time. The Company represents and warrants none of the securities held by CareBourn LP, CareBourn LLC, More Capital and Auctus entitle the holder to receive any dividends or distributions from the Company unless the security is first converted into shares of Common Stock. The Company further represents and warrants that, as of the Issue Date, the only class of stock of the Company that is issued and outstanding is Common Stock.
     
  (iii) Fundamental Transactions. In the event that, prior to any exercise hereunder, the Common Stock is converted into another class of securities of the Company or any successor entity to the Company, whether by way of merger, reorganization, re- incorporation or otherwise (the “Replacement Securities”), any reference herein to the Common Stock (whether standing alone or as part of another defined term herein) automatically upon the consummation of the applicable transaction shall be deemed a reference to such Replacement Securities. In the event that, prior to any exercise hereunder, the Company completes a share exchange with another entity wherein all of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock are exchanged for equity interests in the other entity (the “Exchanged Securities”), any reference herein to the Common Stock (whether standing alone or as part of another defined term herein) automatically upon the consummation of the applicable transaction shall be deemed a reference to such Exchanged Securities. Then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive the number of Replacement Securities or Exchanged Securities and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable upon or as a result of such merger, reorganization, re-incorporation or exchange as receivable for the Warrant Shares had they been issued at that time, with appropriate and equitable adjustments being made to the Exercise Price, and for purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock.

  (iv) Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder or the Exercise Price thereof shall be adjusted pursuant hereto, the Company shall provide notice to the Holder setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the number and class of shares which may be purchased thereafter and the Exercise Price therefor after giving effect to such adjustment.

 

  (e) Holder’s Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to the conversion set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)) would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, non-exercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation, the Note or any other Warrants) beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 3(e), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 3(e) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant may be exercised (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates or Attribution Parties) and which portion of this Warrant may be exercised, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. To ensure compliance with this restriction, the Holder will be deemed to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Notice of Exercise that such Notice of Exercise has not violated the restrictions set forth in this Section 3(e) and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 3(e) in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the SEC, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company, or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one Business Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant by the Holder. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 3(e) provided that any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 3(e) shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 3(e) to correct this Section 3(e) (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this Section 3(e) shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

  (f) Conditional Exercise. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if an exercise of any portion of this Warrant is to be made in connection with a public offering or a sale of the Company (pursuant to a merger, sale of securities or assets, or otherwise), such exercise may at the election of the Holder be conditioned upon the consummation of such transaction, in which case such exercise shall not be deemed to be effective until immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction.

 

4. Notices. In the event that, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding:

 

  (i) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its shares for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, to vote at a meeting (or by written consent), to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any securities, or to receive any other security;
     
  (ii) the Company shall undertake any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the shares of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person, or sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another Person; or
     
  (iii)  the Company shall undertake any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company;

 

then, and in each such case, the Company shall send or cause to be sent to the Holder at least thirty (30) days prior to the applicable record date or the applicable expected effective date, as the case may be, for the event, a written notice specifying, as the case may be, (A) the record date for such dividend, distribution, meeting or consent or other right or action, and a description of such dividend, distribution or other right or action to be taken at such meeting or by written consent, or (B) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is proposed to take place, and the date, if any is to be fixed, as of which the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken with respect to which the holders of record of the shares (or shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant at that time) shall be entitled to exchange their shares (or such other securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, and the amount per unit and character of such exchange applicable to the Warrant and the Warrant Shares.

5. Registration of Warrants; Transfer of Warrants. Any Warrants issued upon the transfer or exercise in part of this Warrant shall be numbered and shall be registered in a Warrant Register as they are issued. The Company shall be entitled to treat the registered holder of any Warrant on the Warrant Register as the owner in fact thereof for all purposes and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such Warrant on the part of any other person, and shall not be liable for any registration or transfer of Warrants which are registered or to be registered in the name of a fiduciary or the nominee of a fiduciary unless made with the actual knowledge that a fiduciary or nominee is committing a breach of trust in requesting such registration or transfer, or with the knowledge of such facts that its participation therein amounts to bad faith. This Warrant shall be transferable only on the books of the Company upon delivery thereof duly endorsed by the Holder or by its duly authorized attorney or representative, or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment, or authority to transfer. In all cases of transfer by an attorney, executor, administrator, guardian, or other legal representative, duly authenticated evidence of his or its authority shall be produced. Upon any registration of transfer, the Company shall deliver a new Warrant or Warrants to the person entitled thereto. This Warrant may be exchanged, at the option of the Holder thereof, for another Warrant, or other Warrants of different denominations, of like tenor and representing in the aggregate the right to purchase a like number of Warrant Shares, upon surrender to the Company or its duly authorized agent.
   
6. Restrictions on Transfer.

 

  (a) The Holder, as of the Issuance Date, represents to the Company that such Holder is acquiring this Warrant for its own account for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution thereof or of the Warrant Shares. Notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Warrant to the contrary, this Warrant, or any portion thereof, and the related Warrant Shares shall not be transferable except pursuant to the proviso contained in the following sentence or upon the conditions specified in this Section 6, which conditions are intended, among other things, to insure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and applicable state law in respect of the transfer of this Warrant or such Warrant Shares. The Holder by acceptance of this Warrant agrees that the Holder will not transfer this Warrant or the related Warrant Shares prior to delivery to the Company of an opinion of the Holder’s counsel (as such opinion and such counsel are described in Section 6(b)) or until registration of such Warrant Shares under the Securities Act has become effective or after a sale of such Warrant or Warrant Shares has been consummated pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A under the Securities Act; provided, however, that the Holder may freely transfer this Warrant, any portion thereof, or such Warrant Shares (without delivery to the Company of an opinion of counsel) (i) to one of its nominees, affiliates (which shall include Yaakov G. Vanek or Eric J. Weissman) or a nominee thereof, (ii) from a nominee to any of the aforementioned persons as beneficial owner of this Warrant or such Warrant Shares, (iii) to a qualified institutional buyer, so long as such transfer is effected in compliance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, or (iv) to an accredited investor (as such term is defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act).

 

7
 

 

  (b) The Holder, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that prior to any transfer of this Warrant or of the related Warrant Shares (other than as permitted by Section 6(a) or pursuant to a registration under the Securities Act), the Holder will give written notice to the Company of its intention to effect such transfer, together with an opinion of such counsel for the Holder as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company, to the effect that the proposed transfer of this Warrant and/or such Warrant Shares may be effected without registration under the Securities Act. Upon delivery of such notice and opinion, if required, to the Company, the Holder shall be entitled to transfer this Warrant and/or such Warrant Shares in accordance with the intended method of disposition specified in the notice to the Company and the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant, if any, not so assigned and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled.
     
  (c) Upon any transfer of this Warrant, the Company shall issue a replacement warrant to the transferee (the “Replacement Warrant”) which shall have provisions providing to the transferee the same economic interest in the Warrant Shares and otherwise having tenor herein, but which Replacement Warrant the Company and the Holder agree shall not be connected or linked to the Restructuring Agreement and shall be a standalone customary warrant agreement, in form and substance as reasonably agreed to by the Company and the Holder. By way of example and not limitation, the provisions of Section 11, Section 14, Section 16(a) and Section 16(f) shall be appropriately revised in the Replacement Warrant. Upon any issuance of a Replacement Warrant, this Warrant shall also be amended to reduce the number of Warrant Shares exercisable hereunder.
     
  (d) Each stock certificate representing Warrant Shares issued upon exercise or exchange of this Warrant shall bear the following legend unless the opinion of counsel referred to in Section 6(a) states such legend is not required:

 

“THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS SECURITY MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.”

 

7. Reservation of Shares; Reissuance. The Company shall at all times during the Exercise Period reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of providing for the exercise of the rights to purchase all Warrant Shares granted pursuant to the Warrants, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall, from time to time, be sufficient therefor. The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, upon receipt by the Company of the full Exercise Price therefor, shall be validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable, and free of preemptive rights, and free from all taxes, claims, liens, charges and other encumbrances. If this Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company will, on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may reasonably impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination and tenor as this Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed. In the event that this Warrant is not fully exercised by the end of the Exercise Period it shall thereafter be void and of no further force and effect.

 

8
 

 

8. No Impairment and Non-Circumvention. The Company shall not, by amendment of its articles of incorporation or bylaws, or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid, or seek to avoid, the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed by it hereunder. The Company shall at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may reasonably be requested by the Holder in order to protect the rights of the Holder, including, but not limited to, providing the Holder with the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ financial information.
   
9. Transfer Taxes. The issuance of any shares or other securities upon the exercise of this Warrant, and the delivery of certificates or other instruments representing such shares or other securities, shall be made without charge to the Holder (or its nominees or affiliates as defined above) for any tax or other charge in respect of such issuance. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of the above referenced persons and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any such certificate unless and until the person or persons requesting the issue thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.
   
10. Holder Not Deemed a Shareholder; No Liability. Prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares to which the Holder is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall not be deemed the holder of shares of the Company for any purpose (unless the Holder otherwise holds shares of the Company independent of this Warrant). In addition, subject to the provision in the foregoing sentence, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder: (i) as a shareholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by any other person, including creditors of the Company, or (ii) to purchase any securities (by exercise of this Warrant or otherwise).
   
11. Resolution of Disputes. Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to this Warrant (including with respect to the meaning, effect, validity, termination, interpretation, performance, or enforcement of this Warrant) or any alleged breach thereof (including any action in tort, contract, equity, or otherwise), shall be resolved in accordance with the “Resolution of Disputes” provision of the Restructuring Agreement.
   
12. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. This Warrant shall be governed, construed and enforced in accordance with the Laws of the State of Nevada, without application of the conflicts of laws provisions thereof. Subject to Section 11, each Party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Warrant (whether brought against a Party hereto or its respective Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced in the state and federal courts sitting in Dallas County, Texas (the “Selected Courts”). Each Party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Selected Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such Selected Courts, or such Selected Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each Party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such Party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Warrant and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.

EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 13(a).

14. Indemnification. The Company and the Holder agree that the indemnification provisions of the Restructuring Agreement shall apply to this Warrant.
   
15. Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Warrant were not performed by them in accordance with the terms hereof or were otherwise breached and that each Party hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of the provisions hereof and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without the proof of actual damages, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each Party agrees to waive any requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with any such equitable remedy, and agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief on the basis that (a) the other Party has an adequate remedy at law, or (b) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity.
