EX-10.4 6 mrai-ex10_4.htm EX-10.4 EX-10.4 GUARANTY
THIS GUARANTY (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the provisions hereof, this “Guaranty”), dated as of April 15, 2024, is made by each of the undersigned guarantors (collectively, the “Guarantor”) in favor of JGB Collateral LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, in its capacity as agent for the Holders (as defined below) (in such capacity, together with its successors and assigns, the “Agent”).
1.
Guaranty. In consideration of the substantial direct and indirect benefits derived by the Guarantor from the loan and other extensions of credit made by each of the entities identified as holders (together with their respective successors and assigns, the “Holders”) under (i) that certain Senior Secured Convertible Debenture dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Debenture”), by and between the Holders and Marpai Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”) and (ii) that certain Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of the date hereof, by and between the Borrower, the Holders and the Agent, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1.1
Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings given such terms in the Debenture.
1.2
The Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the punctual payment, when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all present and future obligations, liabilities, covenants and agreements required to be observed, performed, or paid by (x) the Borrower under the Debenture and the other Transaction Documents and (y) each other Person that has guaranteed the obligations of the Borrower under the Transaction Documents (each an “Other Guarantor” and the Borrower and the Other Guarantors, each a “Loan Party” and collectively, the “Loan Parties”) under each Transaction Document to which each such Loan Party may be a party, whether for principal, interest (including interest accrued after the commencement of any insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of a Borrower), costs, expenses and fees and agrees to pay any and all costs, fees and expenses incurred by the Holders or the Agent in any way related to the enforcement or protection of the Holders’ or the Agent’s rights hereunder or under any documents executed in connection with the Debenture (collectively, the “Obligations”).
1.3
Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, the Guarantor’s liability with respect to the Obligations shall be limited to an amount not to exceed, as of any date of determination, the amount that could be claimed by the Holders or the Agent from the Guarantor without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.
2.
Guaranty of Payment Absolute and Unconditional. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and is absolute. The Guarantor agrees that neither the Holders nor the Agent need attempt
to collect any Obligations from any other Loan Party or to realize upon any collateral for all or any part of the Obligations (the “Collateral”) to enforce the obligations hereunder. The preceding sentence means, among other things, Agent may collect from Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by Borrowers or any other Loan Party. The Guarantor guarantees that the Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Debenture and the Transaction Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Holders or the Agent with respect thereto. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty are independent of the Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Guarantor and/or any other Loan Party and one or more Loan Parties may be joined in any such action or actions. The liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty constitutes a primary obligation and not a contract of surety, and to the extent permitted by law, shall be irrevocable, continuing, absolute and unconditional. Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, prior to instituting any effort to enforce this Guaranty against the Guarantor, the Agent shall provide to the Guarantor not less than thirty (30) days written notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default and refrain from enforcing its rights and remedies hereunder; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, after the expiration of such 30-day period, nothing shall prohibit the Agent from enforcing this Guaranty against the Guarantor in accordance with its terms. Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, neither the Holder nor the Agent shall be prohibited from declaring any Event of Default under the Debenture or the other Transaction Documents or be required to provide prior notice to the Guarantor of same, except as specifically set forth herein.
3.
Waivers. The Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way relating to any or all of the following:
3.1
Any lack of validity or enforceability of the Obligations or of any agreement or instrument relating thereto.
3.2
Any limitation of liability or recourse in any other Loan Document or arising under any law;
3.3
Any claim or defense that this Guaranty was made without consideration or is not supported by adequate consideration;
3.4
The taking or accepting of any other security or guaranty for, or right of recourse with respect to, any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations
3.5
any release, surrender, abandonment, exchange, alteration, sale or other disposition, subordination, deterioration, waste, failure to protect or preserve, impairment, or loss of, or any failure to create or perfect any lien or security interest with respect to, or any other dealings with, any collateral or security at any time existing or purported, believed or expected to exist in connection with any or all of the Obligations, including any impairment of Guarantor’s recourse against any Person or collateral;
3.6
Any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of, or any consent to depart from, the agreements entered into by the parties, including, without limitation, any increase in the Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to the Borrower or otherwise.
3.7
Any taking, exchange, release, subordination or non-perfection of any Collateral or the property, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any of the Obligations.
3.8
Promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and, except as otherwise provided in this Guaranty, any other notice with respect to any of the Obligations and this Guaranty, and, except for the notice requirements set forth in Section 2 of this Guaranty, any requirement that the Holders or the Agent exhausts any right or take any action against any Loan Party or any other person or entity or any Collateral or any of the property. The Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated herein and that the waiver set forth in this Section 3.4 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.
3.9
Any right to revoke this Guaranty and acknowledges that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all presently existing and future Obligations.
3.10
Any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or manner of administering the Obligations or any existence of, or reliance on, any representation by the Holders or the Agent that might vary the risk of the Guarantor or otherwise operate as a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, the Guarantor, the Borrower, any Loan Party or any other surety.
3.11
Any suretyship defenses that Guarantor has or would have under applicable law.
3.12
Guarantor represents, warrants, and agrees that, the Obligations are not subject to any offset or defense against any Holder, the Agent, the Borrower or any other Loan Party of any kind, and Guarantor specifically waives its right to assert any such defense or right of offset.
4.
Reinstatement. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Holder or the Agent or any other entity for any reason, including upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any other Loan Party (and whether as a result of any demand, settlement, litigation or otherwise), all as though such payment had not been made.
5.
Subrogation. The Guarantor will not exercise any rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or other guarantors that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract,
statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Borrower, any other Loan Party or other guarantors, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security solely on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Obligations and all other amounts payable to the Agent and the Holders under the Debenture and the other Transaction Documents shall have been indefeasibly paid in full. If any payment is made under this Guaranty by or on behalf of Guarantor (including by way of exercise by Agent of any rights and remedies under this Guaranty), after indefeasible payment in full in cash of (i) all Obligations and (ii) all other amounts payable to the Agent and the Holders under the Debenture and the other Transaction Documents, the Agent will, at Guarantor's request and expense, execute and deliver to Guarantor, without recourse or representation or warranty, appropriate documents necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to Guarantor of an interest in the Obligations resulting from such payment.
6.
Subordination. If, for any reason, any Loan Party is now or hereafter becomes indebted to Guarantor for debt for borrowed money (such indebtedness and all interest thereon being referred to as the “Affiliated Debt”), such Affiliated Debt shall, at all times be subordinate in all respects to the full payment and performance of the Obligations by such Loan Party, and the Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or receive payment thereof until all of the Obligations have been fully paid and performed by the Borrower. The Guarantor agrees that any liens, mortgages, deeds of trust, security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances of any Loan Party’s assets securing the payment of the Affiliated Debt shall be and remain subordinate and inferior to any liens, security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon any Loan Party’s assets securing the payment of the Obligations, and without the prior written consent of the Holders, as determined and communicated by the Agent, the Guarantor shall not exercise or enforce any creditor’s rights of any nature against any Loan Party to collect the Affiliated Debt. There is no agreement, indenture, contract or instrument to which the Guarantor is subject or by which the Guarantor may be bound that requires the subordination in right of payment of the Obligations under this Guaranty to any other obligations of the Guarantor. In the event of the receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, debtor’s relief or other insolvency proceedings involving any Loan Party as a debtor, the Agent shall have the right and authority, either in its own name or as attorney-in-fact for the Guarantor (and the Guarantor hereby appoints the Agent as its attorney-in-fact solely for such limited purpose), to file such proof of debt, claim, petition or other documents and to take such other steps as are necessary to prove the Agent’s rights hereunder. Such appointment of the Agent as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.
Any sum paid to the Guarantor in violation of this Section 6 shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Holders, segregated from other funds of the Guarantor, and promptly paid or delivered to the Agent in the same form as so received to be credited against the Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting any other provision of this Guaranty, this Section 6 shall survive the Guarantor’s performance of its obligations hereunder until the Obligations have been satisfied in full in cash.
7.
Insolvency. Should Guarantor become insolvent, or fail to pay its debts generally as they become due, or voluntarily seek, consent to, or acquiesce in the benefit or benefits of any debtor relief law, or become a party to (or be made the subject of) any proceeding provided for by any debtor relief law (other than as a creditor or claimant) that could suspend or otherwise adversely affect the rights and remedies of the Holders or the Agent granted hereunder, then, in any such event, the Obligations shall be, as between Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Agent, on the other hand, a fully matured, due, and payable obligation of Guarantor to the Holders (without regard to whether any Loan Party is then in default under the Debenture or any other Transaction Document or whether the Obligations, or any part thereof is then due and owing by any Loan Party to the Holders), payable in full by Guarantor to the Holders upon demand of the Agent, which shall be the estimated amount owing in respect of the contingent claim created hereunder.
8.

There is no litigation, at law or in equity, or any proceeding before any federal, state, provincial or municipal board or other governmental or administrative agency pending or, to the knowledge of Guarantor, threatened, or any basis therefor, which involves a risk of any material judgment or liability not fully covered by insurance (other than any deductible) which is likely to be adversely determined, and no judgment, decree, or order of any federal, state, provincial or municipal court, board or other governmental or administrative agency has been issued against Guarantor.
8.9
