SECURED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

$140,000.00 April 2, 2021

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Medovex, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Maker”), promises to pay to Medovex Corp., a Nevada corporation (“Holder”), the sum of One Hundred Forty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($140,000.00) (the “Principal Balance”), together with interest from the date of this Secured Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”) on the unpaid Principal Balance at a rate equal to 8% per annum (subject to Section 16 below), compounding annually, computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be. This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Contribution Agreement, dated as of date hereof (the “Contribution Agreement”) between Maker and Holder.

 

The following is a statement of the rights of Holder and the conditions to which this Note is subject, and to which Holder, by the acceptance of this Note, agrees:

 

1. Definitions. All capitalized terms used but not defined in this Note have the meanings given to them in the Contribution Agreement.

 

2. Maturity Date. Unless this Note is converted under Section 5 or prepaid in full pursuant to Section 4 or Section 6, the unpaid Principal Balance, together with any accrued but unpaid interest under this Note, shall be due and payable by Maker on the date that is the fifth (5th) anniversary of the date of this Note (the “Maturity Date”).

 

3. Demand; Payment of Principal and Interest. Holder may declare the entire Principal Balance, accrued and unpaid interest, and any amounts due and owing hereunder immediately due and payable by giving notice of demand for payment upon the earlier to occur of (a) an Event of Default or (b) the Maturity Date.

 

4. Optional Prepayment. Maker may, at any time and from time to time, prepay all or any portion of this Note without penalty or premium upon at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice to Holder. In connection with each prepayment of the Principal Balance, Maker shall also pay all accrued and unpaid interest on the Note.

 

5. Conversion.

 

(a) At any time following the 30 month anniversary of the Effective Date, if this Note is outstanding, Holder may upon written notice to Maker, elect to convert this Note into the number of Class C Units of Maker obtained by dividing the Principal Balance of this Note (together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon) by $1.00 (“Conversion Units”), provided the Holder may convert this Note into Conversion Units in connection with a Sale of the Company regardless of whether the 30-month anniversary of the Effective Date has occurred.

 

 
 

 

(b) Conversion Procedure. Upon the conversion of this Note, the Principal Balance, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be converted into Conversion Units held by Holder. Upon a conversion, Maker shall, within five (5) business days after such delivery, issue and deliver certificates (if any) representing the number of Conversion Units into which the Note converts in accordance with the agreed conversion terms and bearing such legends as are required by Maker’s limited liability company agreement. Maker shall take all action to designate and authorize a sufficient number of its Class C Units be issued upon conversion to the Conversion Units following a conversion pursuant to this Section 5.

 

(c) Effect of Conversion. Upon conversion of this Note in full, Maker shall be forever released from all its obligations and liabilities under this Note and the Note shall be deemed to be cancelled as of such time and any collateral of Maker pledged hereunder shall be released.

 

6. Sale Event. In the event that Maker takes any action to approve or enter into any transaction constituting a Sale of the Company, Maker shall provide Holder with at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice of the anticipated closing date of such transaction. A “Sale of the Company” means (a) the closing of the sale, transfer or other disposition, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, or all or substantially all of Maker’s assets or (b) a transaction or series of related transactions in which a person or entity, or a group of related persons or entities, acquires from the equityholders of Maker securities representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding voting power of Maker. For the avoidance of doubt, a transaction will not constitute a “Sale of the Company” if its sole purpose is to change the state of Maker’s formation or to create a holding company that will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held Maker’s securities immediately prior to such transaction. Upon its receipt of notice of a Sale of the Company, Holder in its sole and absolute discretion, shall have the option immediately prior to the consummation of such Sale of the Company event to either have the Principal Balance plus any accrued and unpaid interest (i) repaid in cash in full (the “Note Payoff Amount”), or (ii) converted into Conversion Units in accordance with Section 5. Upon any Sale of the Company event, such Note Payoff Amount will be senior to and paid prior to any payment to any equity holders of Maker in respect of their equity securities in Maker.

 

7. Security. As collateral security for the payment and performance in full of all obligations of Maker to Holder pursuant to this Note, including, without limitation, all principal, all interest accruing thereon, all fees, all costs of collection, attorneys’ fees and expenses of or advances by Holder which Holder pays or incurs in discharge of obligations of Maker, and whether such amounts are now, or later become, due and owing (collectively, the “Obligations”), Maker hereby grants to Holder a security interest in, and hereby assigns, transfers, pledges and sets over to Holder and agrees and acknowledges that Holder, without further action on its part, has and shall continue to have a continuing first priority security interest in all assets of Maker, wherever located and whether now owned or hereafter acquired, and all proceeds, products, replacements, additions, substitutions and accessions of and to all of such assets, which together collectively constitute and are hereinafter designated as the “Collateral,” and which Collateral includes, without limitation, the following:

 

(a) all of Maker’s Equipment, Goods, Fixtures, Inventory and other items of personal property of whatever type or description wherever located and whether now owned or hereafter acquired;

 

(b) all of Maker’s Accounts and all other forms of customer obligations, now existing or hereafter acquired

 

2
 

 

(c) all of Maker’s Documents, Instruments and Chattel Paper;

 

(d) all of Maker’s Letters of Credit and Letter-of-Credit Rights;

 

(e) all of Maker’s Investment Property;

 

(f) all of Maker’s patents, trademarks (other than United States intent-to-use trademark applications to the extent that the grant of this security interest would impair the registrability of such application), copyrights, trade secrets and other intellectual property of any kind whatsoever;

 

(g) all of Maker’s Commercial Tort Claims;

 

(h) all of Maker’s General Intangibles;

 

(i) all of Maker’s Money and all Deposit Accounts;

 

(j) all Supporting Obligations;

 

(k) all books and records, customer lists, credit files, computer files, programs, printouts and other computer materials and records relating to and at any time evidencing or relating to any of the foregoing; and

 

(l) all proceeds, products, replacements, additional, substitutions and accessions of and to all of the foregoing.

 

Capitalized terms used in this Section 7 that are defined in the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time to time in the State of Delaware (the “UCC”) shall have the meanings assigned to them in the UCC .

 

8. Covenants. Maker hereby covenants and agrees, from the date of this Agreement until the Obligations are paid and satisfied in full, as follows:

 

(a) Transfer of Collateral. Maker will not sell or offer to sell or otherwise transfer, encumber or impair the value of the Collateral or any interest therein other than in the ordinary course of business without the prior written consent of Holder;

 

(b) Perfection. At any time and from time to time, upon the request of Holder, Maker will give, execute, file and/or record any notice, financing statement, continuation statement, instrument, document, agreement or assignment that Holder may consider necessary or desirable to create, preserve, continue, perfect or validate any security interest granted hereunder or which Holder may consider necessary or desirable to exercise or enforce its rights hereunder with respect to such security interest. Maker hereby appoints any officer of Holder designated by Holder as Maker’s attorney-in-fact to do any and every act after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing which Maker is obligated by this Agreement to do, including, without limitation, to exercise all rights of Maker in the Collateral, and to execute any and all papers and instruments and to do all other things necessary to preserve and protect the Collateral and to protect Holder’s interest in the Collateral. Such power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable and shall survive the insolvency or bankruptcy of Maker. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Maker authorizes Holder, at any time, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred, to file, in jurisdictions where this authorization will be given effect, one or more financing statements, continuation statements or other documents describing the Collateral. Maker will cooperate with Holder in obtaining control as requested by Holder with respect to Collateral consisting of deposit accounts, investment property, and letter of credit rights or other Collateral with respect to which the security interest granted herein may or must be perfected by, or the priority of such interest is or may be impacted by, such control (other than payroll or employee withholding accounts).

(c) Liens. Maker will not, without the prior written consent of Holder, borrow from anyone except Holder on the security of, or pledge or grant a security interest in, the Collateral to anyone except Holder or permit any lien or encumbrance to attach to the Collateral, and any levy to be made thereon or any financing statement (except Holder’s financing statement) to be on file with respect thereto, or to sell or offer to sell or otherwise transfer, encumber or impair the value of the Collateral or any interest therein.

 

(d) Taxes. Maker shall pay and discharge when due all such taxes, levies or other charges on the Collateral or on account of or in connection with this Note.

Holder will be named as a loss payee under such insurance as its interest may appear. Maker shall maintain the Collateral in a reasonably careful manner so as not to unreasonably or unnecessarily expose the same to waste, damage, wear or depreciation and shall keep the same in good order and repair. All equipment, accessories and parts related to the use of the Collateral shall become part of said Collateral by accession.

 

(f) Place of Business. Maker will immediately notify Holder in writing of any change in the location of the place of business where records concerning the Collateral are kept.

 

(g) Inspections. Holder may enter onto Maker’s property and may examine and inspect the Collateral and Maker’s books, records, papers, certificates concerning the Collateral and journals at any time or times, wherever located, during normal business hours and in a manner that will not unreasonably interfere with normal business operations.

(a) Failure to Pay. Maker fails to make any payment of principal or interest when due under the terms of this Note; provided that a failure to pay the Principal Balance and all accrued but unpaid interest at the Maturity Date shall only constitute an Event of Default if such failure continues unremedied for a period of ten (10) days following the Maturity Date after written notice from Holder;

 

4
 

 

(b) Involuntary Bankruptcy or Insolvency Proceedings. Proceedings for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or custodian of Maker or of all or a substantial part of the property of Maker, or an involuntary case or other proceedings seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to Maker or the debts of Maker under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect are commenced and an order for relief entered or such proceeding is not dismissed or discharged within ninety (90) days of such commencement; or

10. Rights of Holder upon Default. Upon the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default referred to in Sections 9(b) and 9(c)) and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such Event of Default, Holder may, by written notice to Maker declare the outstanding Principal Balance, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived. Upon the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default described in Sections 9(b) and 9(c), immediately and without notice, the outstanding Principal Balance, together with accrued interest, shall automatically become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived. In addition to the foregoing remedies, upon the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such Event of Default, Holder may avail itself of all rights and remedies granted a secured party under the UCC or other applicable law including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the right to sell, assign and deliver the Collateral, or any part thereof, at public or private sale, at such place as Holder may deem best. At such sale, Holder shall have the right to purchase the Collateral, or any part thereof. At any such sale, Holder may, in its discretion, restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who will represent and warrant that they are acquiring the Collateral, for their own account, for investment only and not with the view towards the resale or distribution thereof, and who will make such further representations and warranties as Holder may, in its discretion, deem necessary or desirable to assure Holder that such prospective bidders or purchasers are, with respect to the applicable federal and state securities laws and rules, suitable bidders or purchasers of such Collateral, which restrictions, as to prospective bidders and purchasers, the parties agree are commercially reasonable. The parties agree that written notice mailed to Maker ten (10) business days prior to the date of public sale of the Collateral, or ten (10) business days prior to the date after which private sale or any other disposition of the Collateral will be made, shall constitute reasonable notice (all such notices, demands or advertisements of any kind being hereby expressly waived), but notice given in any other manner or any other time, in each case as permitted by the UCC, shall be sufficient. Holder may proceed against such security as Holder has with respect to the Obligations, in such fashion and in such order as Holder may desire, and Holder shall not be deemed to have waived any of its security rights or other rights by virtue of the order or fashion in which it elects to realize on the various security interests which it has to secure said debt, or by virtue of bringing any action to realize on any of the various security interests. exercise any other right, power or remedy, either by suit in equity or by action at law, or both. All of the rights, powers and remedies of Holder shall be cumulative, and may be exercised independently, concurrently or successively in Holder’s sole discretion. No waiver by Holder of any default shall operate as a waiver of any other default or of the same default on a future occasion. No delay or omission on the part of Holder in exercising any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof and no single or partial exercise by Holder of any right or remedy shall preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. Upon disposition by Holder of any Collateral, Maker shall be and remain liable for any deficiency; and Holder shall account to Maker for any surplus, but Holder shall have the right to apply all or any part of such surplus to (or to hold the same as a reserve against) all or any liabilities of Maker to Holder then due, and in such order of application as Holder may from time to time elect.
