3.           Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser. The Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:

 

3.1           Authorization. The Purchaser is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation. The Purchaser has full power and authority to enter into the Transaction Agreements. The Transaction Agreements to which the Purchaser is a party, when executed and delivered by the Purchaser, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and any other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and (iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions may be limited by applicable law.

 

3.2           Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with the Purchaser in reliance upon the Purchaser’s representation to the Company, which by the Purchaser’s execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser hereby confirms, that the Shares to be acquired by the Purchaser will be acquired for investment for the Purchaser’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that the Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, the Purchaser further represents that the Purchaser does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any Person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such Person or to any third Person, with respect to any of the Shares. The Purchaser has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Shares.

The Purchaser has had an opportunity to discuss the Company’s business, management, financial affairs and the terms and conditions of the offering of the Shares with the Company’s management and has had an opportunity to review the Company’s facilities.

3.4           Restricted Securities. The Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Purchaser’s representations as expressed herein. The Purchaser understands that the Shares are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Purchaser must hold the Shares indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Shares, or the Common Stock into which it may be converted, for resale. The Purchaser further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Shares, and on requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy.

 

3.5           No Public Market. The Purchaser understands that no public market now exists for the Shares, and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Shares.

 

3.6           Legends. The Purchaser understands that the Shares and any securities issued in respect of or exchange for the Shares, may be notated with one or all of the following legends:

 

  18 

 

 

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH TRANSFER MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.”

 

(a)          Any legend set forth in, or required by, the other Transaction Agreements.

 

(b)          Any legend required by the securities laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the Shares represented by the certificate, instrument, or book entry so legended.

 

3.7           Accredited Investor. The Purchaser is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

3.8           No General Solicitation. Neither the Purchaser, nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, stockholders or partners has either directly or indirectly, including, through a broker or finder (a) engaged in any general solicitation, or (b) published any advertisement in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares.

 

3.9           Exculpation Among Purchaser. The Purchaser acknowledges that it is not relying upon any Person, other than the Company and its officers and directors, in making its investment or decision to invest in the Company.

 

3.10         Residence. The office of the Purchaser in which its principal place of business is identified in the address of the Purchaser set forth on the signature page.

 

4.           Covenants of the Company.

 

4.1           Lock-Up Agreements. The Company shall have received and delivered to Purchaser on or before the Initial Closing “lock-up” agreements, each substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, executed by officers and directors of the Company and shareholders of the Company affiliated with the Company’s officers and directors (including, Rockmore Investment Master Fund Ltd. and Mistral Spa Holdings, LLC) relating to sales and certain other dispositions of shares of Common Stock or certain other securities, and such “lock-up” agreements shall be in full force and effect on the Initial Closing.

4.2           Exclusivity. During the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the date that is sixty (60) days after the date hereof (the “Exclusivity Period”), the Company shall not, and shall not authorize or permit any of its Representatives to, without Purchaser’s consent, directly or indirectly, solicit, initiate or take any action to facilitate or encourage any inquiries or the making of any proposal from a person or group of persons other than Purchaser and its affiliates that may constitute, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, a Competing Transaction (as defined below); (ii) enter into or participate in any discussions or negotiations with any person or group of persons other than Purchaser and its affiliates regarding a Competing Transaction; (iii) furnish any information relating to the Company or any of its subsidiaries, assets or businesses, or afford access to the assets, business, properties, books or records of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to any person or group of persons other than Purchaser and its Representatives, in all cases for the purpose of assisting with or facilitating a Competing Transaction, or enter into any agreement, agreement in principle or other commitment (whether or not legally binding) with respect to a loan or credit facility, co-marketing agreement (other than with respect to co-marketing of retail products), licensing agreement, joint venture or partnership (other than current or potential joint ventures or partnerships between the Company and the entities listed in Annex I), merger, sale of substantially all of its assets or capital stock, business combination, or equity raise (a “Competing Transaction”), or knowingly solicit, initiate or encourage the submission of any proposal or offer from any person or entity (including any of their officers, directors, employees, representatives or agents) relating to any Competing Transaction. Further, the Company shall not participate in or cooperate with any due diligence efforts of any other party interested in a Competing Transaction. However, nothing herein shall limit the Company from pursuing leases, franchise and other operational agreements or, negotiating and/or consummating any draw down or refinancing of all, or any portion, of or under its current debt financing arrangements (the convertible notes held by Alpha Capital Anstalt and the other investors party to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 15, 2018, by and among XpresSpa Group, Inc. and each purchaser party thereto, loans expected to be made by American Express and all Indebtedness outstanding pursuant to the Credit Agreement and Waiver dated as of April 22, 2015, as subsequently amended, by and between XpresSpa Holdings, LLC and Rockmore Investment Master Fund Ltd., collectively, the “Existing Lenders”), provided that the Company shall promptly deliver any such financing proposals, term sheets, loan agreements, or related documents to the Purchaser prior to entering into any refinancing with any party other than an Existing Lender and such refinancing shall not conflict with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by Transaction Agreements, paying such debt as it becomes due (principal and interest) in equity or honoring outstanding obligations under convertible or exercisable securities.

 

4.3           Board Observer. The Purchaser shall be entitled to appoint one nonvoting observer (the “Observer”) to attend each meeting of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) or committee of the Board and to receive copies of all communications received by the Board members, including, without limitation, notices regarding the call of meetings, provided, however, that the Company reserves the right to exclude the Observer from access to any portion of materials or any portion of a meeting to the extent such portion of the materials or meeting contains information (i) the disclosure of which would, in the opinion of the Company or its counsel, adversely affect the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel, (ii) the Board determines that the Observer has a conflict of interest that is specific to the Observer or (iii) the Board otherwise determines that Observers receipt of such materials or attendance at such meeting would materially and adversely affect the Company. Upon reasonable notice and at a scheduled meeting of the Board or such other time, if any, as the Board may determine in its sole discretion, Observer may address the Board with respect to the Purchaser’s concerns regarding significant business issues facing the Company. Prior to attendance at any meeting of the Company’s Board or the receipt of copies of any communications received by the Board members, the Observer shall enter into a standard Regulation FD Confidentiality Agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company. The Purchaser agrees and Observer or any other representative of the Purchaser shall agree, to keep confidential and not disclose, divulge, or use for any purpose (other than to monitor its investment in the Company), including trading, any confidential information obtained from the Company pursuant to the terms of this Section 4.3 other than to the Purchaser’s attorneys, accountants, consultants, and other professionals, to the extent necessary to obtain their services in connection with monitoring the Purchaser’s investment in the Company; provided, however, that prior to the disclosure of any confidential information obtained from the Company pursuant to the terms of this Section 4.3 to any of the Purchaser’s representatives, any such representative shall have entered into a standard Regulation FD Confidentiality Agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company.
