3 |
b) Mandatory Conversion. In the event that the Company completes an underwritten public offering of its Common Units, the aggregate principal amount of this Note shall be converted, automatically and without any further action on the part of the Holder, the Company or any other Person, into that number of Common Units as is equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate principal amount of this Note by (ii) the Conversion Price.
Upon (A) the consummation of the Company’s IPO or (B) the date the Company obtains a public listing (through a reverse merger, self-listing or other alternative means), the aggregate Principal Amount of this Note (plus any accrued but unpaid interest) shall be converted, automatically and without any further action on the part of the Holder, the Company or any other Person, into that number of units of Common Units (or an equivalent thereof) as is equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate Principal Amount of this Note (plus any accrued but unpaid interest), by (ii) the lesser of (a) the Conversion Price, or in the event of a public listing not through an IPO (through a reverse merger, self-listing or other alternative means), the price per share or price per unit issued by the Company in connection with such transaction.
c) Conversion Price. The Conversion Price in effect on a Conversion Date in connection with the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”) shall be equal to the lesser of (A) (i) $0.30 or (B) (i) the highest price per Common Unit sold in the Company’s initial public offering, multiplied by (ii) 75%; and on any other Conversion Date, the Conversion Price shall be $0.30. In the event the Company (i) makes a distribution or distributions on Common Units payable in Common Units or any Common Unit Equivalents (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Common Units issued by the Company upon conversion of, or payment of interest on, the Notes), (ii) subdivides outstanding Common Units into a larger number of Common Units, (iii) combines (including by way of a reverse split) outstanding Common Units into a smaller number of Common Units or (iv) issues, in the event of a reclassification of Common Units, any Common Units of the Company, then the Conversion Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Conversion Price by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of Common Units outstanding immediately before such event, and of which the denominator shall be the number of Common Units outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of members entitled to receive such distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.
4 |
d) Adjustments for Reorganization, Merger, Consolidation or Sales of Assets. If at any time or from time to time after the issuance date of this Note there shall be a capital reorganization of the Company (other than by way of a stock split or combination of shares or stock dividends or distributions, or a reclassification, exchange or substitution of shares), or a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation where the holders of the Company’s outstanding voting securities prior to such merger or consolidation do not own over 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the merged or consolidated entity, immediately after such merger or consolidation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s properties or assets to any other person (an “Organic Change”), then as a part of such Organic Change an appropriate revision to the conversion price shall be made if necessary and provision shall be made if necessary (by adjustments of the conversion price or otherwise) so that, upon any subsequent conversion of this Note, the Holder shall have the right to receive, in lieu of Conversion Shares, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities or property of the Company or any successor corporation resulting from the Organic Change. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of Section 4(c) with respect to the rights of the Holder after the Organic Change to the end that the provisions of Section 4(c) (including any adjustment in the conversion price then in effect and the number of shares of stock or other securities deliverable upon conversion of this Note) shall be applied after that event in as nearly an equivalent manner as may be practicable.
e) Mechanics of Conversion.
i. Conversion Units Issuable Upon Conversion of Principal Amount. The number of Conversion Units issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal amount of this Note to be converted by (y) the Conversion Price.
ii. Delivery of Certificate Upon Conversion. The Company shall promptly deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Conversion Shares representing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion of this Note.
iii. Failure to Deliver Certificates. If, in the case of a Notice of Conversion in connection with the IPO, such certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by the applicable Holder by the Share Delivery Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to the Company at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates, to rescind such Conversion, in which event the Company shall promptly return to the Holder any original Note delivered to the Company and the Holder shall promptly return to the Company the Common Unit certificates issued to such Holder pursuant to the rescinded Notice of Conversion.
5 |
iv. Obligation Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to issue the Conversion Units upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Units; provided, however, that such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such action the Company may have against the Holder. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 5 hereof for the Company’s failure to deliver Conversion Units within the period specified herein and the Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.
v. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Conversion at IPO. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates by the Share Delivery Date pursuant to Section 4(e)(ii), and if after such Share Delivery Date the Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise), or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, Common Units to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Conversion Units which the Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating to such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder (in addition to any other remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the Common Units so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of Common Units that the Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions) and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) this Note in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of the attempted conversion (in which case such conversion shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of Common Units that would have been issued if the Company had timely complied with its delivery requirements under Section 4(e)(ii). For example, if the Holder purchases Common Units having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of this Note with respect to which the actual sale price of the Conversion Units (including any brokerage commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of $10,000 under clause of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing Common Units upon conversion of this Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
vi. Fractional Common Units. No fractional Common Units shall be issued upon the conversion of this Note. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Company shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round up to the next whole Common Unit.
6 |
Section 5. Liquidation; Change of Ownership. Upon a liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of the Company (except in connection with an IPO), or upon a Change of Ownership of the Company (as defined in the Company’s Operating Agreement), and provided that Holder has not converted this Note into Company Units in accordance with Section 4 of this Note, the Holder of this Note shall be entitled to a payment of $_______ (the “Preference Payment”) prior to, and in preference of, amounts payable (i) to holders of all then outstanding unsecured debt obligations of the Company (other than such obligations which as a matter of law are senior the Company’s obligation to Holder) and (ii) as distributions pursuant to Sections 4.4.1. (a) through (c) of the Company’s Operating Agreement as such may be amended from time to time; provided, however, any payments due Holder in accordance with this Section 5 shall be pari passu (with respect to seniority and priority) with the Senior Debt Holders (as such term is defined in the Security Agreement attached as Exhibit C to the Purchase Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder of this Note shall not be entitled to the Preference Payment unless such Holder first (i) waives all rights, title, and entitlements to any distributions from the Company as a Member of the Company (and a holder of Company Units) pursuant to the Operating Agreement and (ii) discharges all amounts owed Holder by the Company (whether pursuant to a debt instrument or otherwise) other than the Preference Payment. Holder agrees to execute a release of claims for the benefit of the Company (having a form reasonably acceptable by the Company) prior to its receipt of the Preference Payment in furtherance of the waiver of rights and discharge of debt as set forth in the preceding sentence.
If upon the liquidation or Change of Ownership of the Company, the assets of the Company legally available for distribution to the Senior Debt Holders are insufficient to permit the payment to Holder of the full amounts specified in this Section 5, then the entire assets of the Company legally available for distribution shall be distributed with equal priority and pro rata among the Holder and other Senior Debt Holders in proportion to the full amounts they would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to this Section.
Section 6. Events of Default.
a) “Event of Default” means, wherever used herein, any of the following events (whatever the reason for such event and whether such event shall be voluntary or involuntary or effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court, or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):
i. any default in the payment of (A) the principal amount of any Note or (B) interest, liquidated damages and other amounts owing to a Holder on any Note, as and when the same shall become due and payable (whether on a Conversion Date or the Maturity Date or by acceleration or otherwise) which default, solely in the case of an interest payment or other default under clause (B) above, is not cured within fifteen (15) Trading Days;
ii. the Company shall fail to observe or perform any other material covenant or agreement contained in the Notes which failure is not cured, if possible to cure, within the earlier to occur of (A) fifteen (15) Trading Days after notice of such failure sent by the Holder or by any other Holder to the Company and thirty (30) Trading Days after the Company has become or should reasonably have become aware of such failure;
7 |
iii. any representation or warranty made in this Note or the Purchase Agreement shall be untrue or incorrect in any material respect as of the date when made or deemed made;
iv. the Company or any Significant Subsidiary (as such term is defined in Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X) shall be subject to a Bankruptcy Event; or
v. following the date the Company initially becomes a reporting company pursuant to the Exchange Act and its shares of Common Units are listed on a Trading Market, the Common Units shall subsequently not be eligible for listing or quotation for trading on a Trading Market and shall not be eligible to resume listing or quotation for trading thereon within five (5) Trading Days.
b) Remedies Upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing before the Maturity Date, the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus liquidated damages, interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the Holder’s election, immediately due and payable in cash. Commencing five (5) Trading Days after the occurrence of any Event of Default that results in the eventual acceleration of this Note, the interest rate on this Note shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 15% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. Upon the payment in full, the Holder shall promptly surrender this Note to or as directed by the Company. In connection with such acceleration described herein, the Holder need not provide, and the Company hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and the Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law. Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder and the Holder shall have all rights as a holder of the Note until such time, if any, as the Holder receives full payment pursuant to this Section 5(b). No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
c) Penalty for Failure to Repay by the Maturity Date. If, on the Maturity Date, the principal amount of any Note, or the interest, liquidated damages and other amounts owing to a Holder on any Note, remains unpaid, the Company shall pay to the Holder a monthly default penalty of 10% of the total amount unpaid on the Maturity Date (“Maturity Balance”). The Company, however, shall still be required to repay the Holder the Maturity Balance and interest on the Maturity Balance as set forth in Section 6b) above.
