Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning as set forth in the Settlement Agreement.
The Holder agrees solely with the Company that, subject to any other contemporaneously executed leak-out or lock-up agreement that may be executed between or among the Holder and the Company in proximity to this Leak-Out Agreement (collectively, the “Other Leak-Out Agreements”) regarding the Holder’s trading with terms that are no less restrictive than the terms contained herein, following the date hereof (such date, the “Effective Date”) until the date that the Holder no longer holds any of the Settlement Shares (the “Restricted Period”), neither the Holder, nor any affiliate, representative, subsidiary, parent, partner, officer, employee, agent, attorney or any heirs or successors to any of the foregoing (“Affiliate”) of the Holder which (x) had or has knowledge of the transactions contemplated by the Settlement Agreement, or (y) has or shares discretion relating to the Holder’s investments or trading or information concerning the Holder’s investments, including in respect of the Settlement Shares (together, the “Holder’s Trading Affiliates”), collectively, shall sell dispose or otherwise transfer, directly or indirectly, (including, without limitation, any sales, short sales, swaps or any derivative transactions that would be equivalent to any sales or short positions) during the Restricted Period, shares of Common Stock in an amount more than, during any Trading Day during the Restricted Period, 10% of the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Holder in any Trading Day. For the purposes hereof, “Trading Day” means a day on which the Common Stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market, the NYSE American, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the New York Stock Exchange or any successors of any of the foregoing, as applicable.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during the Restricted Period, none of Holder’s Trading Affiliates shall be prevented from executing unsolicited transactions of Common Stock nor shall they be prevented from fulfilling any obligation to any customer or client as required by state or federal securities laws or any regulations of any body, including but not limited to FINRA and the SEC. Further, no transaction covered by this paragraph shall be applied toward the foregoing 10% of the number of shares of Common Stock held by the Holder in any Trading Day limit.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during the Restricted Period, the Holder may, directly or indirectly, sell or transfer all, or any part, of the Settlement Shares to any Person (an “Assignee”) in a transaction which does not need to be reported on the Nasdaq consolidated tape, without complying with (or otherwise limited by) the restrictions set forth in this Leak-Out Agreement; provided, that as a condition to any such sale or transfer an authorized signatory of the Company and such Assignee duly execute and deliver a leak-out agreement in the form of this Leak-Out Agreement (an “Assignee Agreement”, and each such transfer a “Permitted Transfer”) and, subsequent to a Permitted Transfer, sales of the Holder and the Holder’s Trading Affiliates and all Assignees (other than any such sales that constitute Permitted Transfers) shall be aggregated for all purposes of this Leak-Out Agreement and all Assignee Agreements.
Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Leak-Out Agreement must be in writing and shall be given in accordance with the terms of the Settlement Agreement.
This Leak-Out Agreement and the Settlement Agreement, together, constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior negotiations, letters and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof and are fully binding on the parties hereto.
