Closing of Transaction Agreement with OSN

 

On April 1, 2024, Anghami Inc. (the “Company” or “Anghami”) closed the previously announced transaction with OSN Streaming Limited (formerly named OrionPlus2) (“OSN”), an affiliate of Panther Media Group Limited, which operated the digital streaming service known as “OSN+” through another of its subsidiaries, Gulf DTH FZ-LLC (“Gulf”), pursuant to that certain Transaction Agreement, dated as of November 21, 2023, by and between Anghami and OSN (the “Transaction Agreement”).

 

At the closing of the transaction, the Company acquired from Gulf the contracts that are related to the OSN+ platform (“OSN+ Contracts”) and entered into other agreements relating to the transfer and combination of the OSN+ platform with the business of the Company. The OSN+ Contracts consist of contracts with technology and telecommunication companies, subscribers and various other commercial contracts. Upon the closing of the Transaction, the Company also acquired the subscriber relationships and revenues associated with all such OSN+ Contracts in effect as of the closing date.

 

In accordance with the terms of the Transaction Agreement, at the closing, OSN subscribed for 36,985,507 ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share of the Company (“Ordinary Shares”), in a private placement, for a total consideration comprised of: (a) a cash payment of $38,000,000; and (b) the value attributable to: (i) the OSN+ Contracts; and (ii) the intellectual property rights associated with the “OSN+” brand that were assigned by Gulf to Anghami FZ LLC, a subsidiary of the Company. The number of Ordinary Shares subscribed for by OSN represents approximately 55.45% of the Company’s outstanding Ordinary Shares as of the closing date.

 

Furthermore, pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, the Company issued 13,426,246 warrants to OSN, for a total consideration amount of $1,025,765. Each warrant entitles the holder thereto (the “Holder”) to purchase one Ordinary Share for $11.50 per share (the “OSN Warrants”) on substantially similar terms to the Company’s outstanding public warrants.

 

The foregoing summary of the terms of the OSN Warrants does not purport to be a complete description of the terms and conditions of the OSN Warrants and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of the Warrant attached as Exhibits 99.2, which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Registration Rights Agreement

 

Simultaneously at the Closing, the Company and OSN entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) and various commercial agreements to facilitate the operation of the combined business moving forward.

 

The Registration Rights Agreement provides for, among other things, customary demand and piggyback registration rights, preemptive rights relating to the issuance of new securities by the Company, information and other rights. In addition, the Registration Rights Agreement contains certain post-closing governance requirements for the Company including that the board of directors of the Company will be composed of seven directors immediately following the closing of the Transaction. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, OSN has the right to appoint four of the directors (which include the Chairman of the Company), two of the directors will be appointed by Anghami and one of the directors will be selected by mutual agreement of the parties following the filing of the Form 20-F for the fiscal year 2023.

 

The foregoing summary of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be a complete description of the terms and conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of the form of the Registration Rights Agreement attached as Exhibit 99.3 which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Changes in Officers and Board of Directors

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Agreement, Fawad Tariq Khan, Abhayanand Singh, Jana Yamani, and Walid Hanna resigned from the board of directors of the Company as of the effective time of the transaction. Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, Meshal Ali was appointed as a Class II director, Michael Johnson was appointed as a Class I director, Joseph El Kawkabani was appointed as a Class I director, and Sheikha Adana Naser Sabah Al Sabah was appointed as a Class II director and the Chair of the board of directors.

In addition, in connection with the closing of the transaction, Elias Habib was appointed Chief Executive Officer and Laura Herbin was appointed Chief Financial Officer.

WARRANT

 

THIS WARRANT (this “Agreement”), dated as of April 1, 2024, is by and between Anghami Inc., an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability, with registration No. 372207, whose registered office is at PO Box 309, Ugland House, Grand Cayman KY1-1104, Cayman Islands (the “Company”), and OSN Streaming Limited, an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with incorporation number 404857 (the “Holder”).

 

WHEREAS, the Company currently has 10,872,800 issued and outstanding warrants (the “Public Warrants”), which were issued pursuant to that certain Warrant Agreement (the “Public Warrant Agreement”), dated August 6, 2020, by and between the Company (as successor to Vistas Media Acquisition Company Inc. “VMAC”) and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”) (as amended by that certain Assignment, Assumption and Amendment Agreement (Warrant Agreement), dated February 3, 2022, by and among VMAC, the Company and Continental), with each such warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one ordinary share of the Company, par value US$0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described therein;

 

WHEREAS, the Company currently has 29,709,641 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock;

 

WHEREAS, the Company has previously entered into that certain Transaction Agreement, dated as of November 21, 2023, by and between the Company and the Holder (the “Transaction Agreement”), pursuant to which the Holder is entitled to purchase a number of warrants in the Company that will each entitle the Holder to purchase one share of Common Stock for $11.50 per share that is sufficient to enable Holder upon exercise of such warrants to maintain a percentage ownership of the Fully Diluted Outstanding Shares (as defined in the Transaction Agreement) equal to Holder’s percentage ownership of the Fully Diluted Outstanding Shares immediately following the closing of the transaction therein (the “OSN Warrants”);

 

WHEREAS, in connection with the Transaction Agreement and simultaneously with the closing of the transactions contemplated thereunder, the Company entered into a Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 1, 2024 with the Holder, pursuant to which the Holder agreed to purchase an aggregate of 13,426,246 warrants at the purchase price of $0.0764 per warrant;

 

WHEREAS, the Company desires to provide for the provisions of the OSN Warrants, the terms upon which they shall be issued and exercised, and the respective rights, limitation of rights, and immunities of the Company and the Holder; and

 

WHEREAS, all acts and things have been done and performed which are necessary to make the OSN Warrants, when executed by the Company and countersigned by the Holder, as provided herein, the valid, binding and legal obligations of the Company, and to authorize the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1. OSN Warrants.

 

1.1 Registration.

 

1.1.1 Warrant Register. The Company shall maintain books (the “Warrant Register) for the registration of original issuance and the registration of transfer of the OSN Warrants. Upon the initial issuance of the OSN Warrants on the date hereof, the Company shall issue and register the OSN Warrants in the name of the Holder or any affiliate thereof in accordance with the terms herein. Ownership of the OSN Warrants shall be shown on, and the transfer of such ownership shall be effected through, records maintained by the Company.

 

1.1.2 Registered Holder. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any OSN Warrant, the Company may deem and treat the person in whose name such OSN Warrant is registered in the Warrant Register (the “Registered Holder”) as the absolute owner of such OSN Warrant and of each OSN Warrant represented thereby, for the purpose of any exercise thereof, and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

 

 

 

1.2 OSN Warrants. The OSN Warrants shall be identical to the Public Warrants, except that so long as they are held by the Holder or any of its Permitted Transferees (as defined below), as applicable, the OSN Warrants: (i) may be exercised on a cashless basis pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(c) hereof; and (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, shall not be redeemable by the Company; provided, however, the OSN Warrants and any shares of Common Stock held by the Holder, or any of its Permitted Transferees, and issued upon exercise of the OSN Warrants may be transferred by the holders thereof to any affiliate of the Holder or to any members of the Holder or any of their affiliates; provided, however, that these transferees (the “Permitted Transferees”) enter into a written agreement with the Company agreeing to be bound by the transfer restrictions in this Agreement.

 

2. Terms and Exercise of OSN Warrants.

 

2.1 OSN Warrant Price. This Agreement shall entitle the Holder, subject to the provisions herein, to purchase from the Company 13,426,246 shares of Common Stock, at the price of $11.50 per share, subject to the adjustments provided in Section 3 hereof and in the last sentence of this Section 2.1. The term “Warrant Price” as used in this Agreement shall mean the price per share at which shares of Common Stock may be purchased at the time an OSN Warrant is exercised. If the Company lowers the exercise price of the Public Warrants then the Company shall immediately lower the Warrant Price in the same amount; provided that any such reduction shall be identical among all of the OSN Warrants and the Public Warrants.

 

2.2 Duration of OSN Warrants. An OSN Warrant may be exercised only during the period (the “Exercise Period”) commencing on the date hereof, and terminating on the earlier to occur of: (a) the Expiration Date of the Public Warrants (as such Expiration Date is defined in the Public Warrant Agreement), (b) the liquidation of the Company, and (c) the Redemption Date (as defined below) as provided in Section 5.3 hereof (the “OSN Expiration Date”). Except with respect to the right to receive the Redemption Price (as defined below) in the event of a redemption (as set forth in Section 5 hereof), each outstanding OSN Warrant not exercised on or before the OSN Expiration Date shall become void, and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under this Agreement shall cease at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the OSN Expiration Date. The Company in its sole discretion may extend the duration of the OSN Warrants by delaying the OSN Expiration Date; provided that the Company shall provide at least twenty (20) days, prior written notice of any such extension to the Holder and provided further that any such extension shall be identical in duration for all of the OSN Warrants.

 

2.3 Exercise of OSN Warrants.

 

2.3.1 Payment. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, an OSN Warrant may be exercised by the Holder by delivering to the Company at its then principal executive offices (i) the OSN Warrants, to be exercised on the records of the Company, (ii) an election to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of an OSN Warrant, as set forth on the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, properly completed and executed by the Holder and properly delivered by the Holder in accordance with the Company’s procedures, and (iii) payment in full of the Warrant Price for each full share of Common Stock as to which the OSN Warrant is exercised and any and all applicable taxes due in connection with the exercise of the OSN Warrant, the exchange of the OSN Warrant for the shares of Common Stock and the issuance of such shares of Common Stock, as follows:

 

(a) in lawful money of the United States, by wire transfer of immediately available funds;

 

(b) in the event of a redemption pursuant to Section 5 hereof in which the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) has elected to require the Holder to exercise such OSN Warrants on a “cashless basis,” by surrendering the OSN Warrants for that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the OSN Warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “Fair Market Value”, as defined in this subsection 2.3.1(b), over the Warrant Price by (y) the Fair Market Value. Solely for purposes of this subsection 2.3.1(b) and Section 5.2, the “Fair Market Value” shall mean the average closing price of the Common Stock for the ten (10) trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the Holder, pursuant to Section 5 hereof;

 

2

 

 

(c) for so long as the OSN Warrants are held by the Holder or any of its Permitted Transferees, they may exercise the OSN Warrants on a cashless basis by surrendering the OSN Warrants for that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the OSN Warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “Fair Market Value”, as defined in this subsection 2.3.1(c), over the Warrant Price by (y) the Fair Market Value. Solely for the purposes of this subsection 2.3.1(c), the “Fair Market Value” shall mean the average closing price of the Common Stock for the ten (10) trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which notice of exercise of the OSN Warrant is sent to the Company; or

 

(d) as provided in Section 6.4 hereof.

 

2.3.2 Issuance of Shares of Common Stock on Exercise. As soon as practicable after the exercise of any OSN Warrant and the clearance of the funds in payment of the Warrant Price (if payment is pursuant to subsection 2.3.1(a)), the Company shall issue to the Holder a book-entry position for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by it, and if such OSN Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a new book-entry position or countersigned OSN Warrant, as applicable, for the number of shares of Common Stock as to which such OSN Warrant shall not have been exercised. If fewer than all the OSN Warrants evidenced by this Agreement are exercised, a notation shall be made to the records maintained by the Company evidencing the balance of the OSN Warrants remaining after such exercise. No OSN Warrant shall be exercisable and the Company shall not be obligated to issue shares of Common Stock upon exercise of an OSN Warrant unless the Common Stock issuable upon such OSN Warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt from registration or qualification under the securities laws of the state of residence of the Holder. In the event that the conditions in the immediately preceding sentence are not satisfied with respect to an OSN Warrant, the Holder shall not be entitled to exercise such OSN Warrant and such OSN Warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the OSN Warrant exercise. The Company may require the Holder to settle the OSN Warrant on a “cashless basis” pursuant to Section 6.4. If, by reason of any exercise of OSN Warrants on a “cashless basis”, the Holder would be entitled, upon the exercise of such OSN Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round down to the nearest whole number, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder.

 

2.3.3 Valid Issuance. All shares of Common Stock issued upon the proper exercise of an OSN Warrant in conformity with this Agreement shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

2.3.4 Date of Issuance. Each person in whose name any book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, for shares of Common Stock is issued shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares of Common Stock on the date on which the OSN Warrant, or book-entry position representing such OSN Warrant, was surrendered and payment of the Warrant Price was made.

 

3. Adjustments.

 

3.1 Stock Dividends.

 

3.1.1 Split-Ups. If after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 3.6 below, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or by a split-up of shares of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of each OSN Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding shares of Common Stock. A rights offering to holders of the Common Stock entitling holders to purchase shares of Common Stock at a price less than the “Fair Market Value” (as defined below) shall be deemed a stock dividend of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for the Common Stock) and (ii) the quotient of (x) the price per share of Common Stock paid in such rights offering divided by (y) the Fair Market Value. For purposes of this subsection 3.1.1, (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock, in determining the price payable for Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) “Fair Market Value” means the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the shares of Common Stock trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.

3.1.2 Extraordinary Dividends. If the Company, at any time while the OSN Warrants are outstanding and unexpired, shall pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of the Common Stock on account of such shares of Common Stock (or other shares of the Company’s capital stock into which the OSN Warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described in subsection 3.1.1 above, or (b) Ordinary Cash Dividends (as defined below) (any such non-excluded event being referred to herein as an “Extraordinary Dividend”), then the Warrant Price shall be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such Extraordinary Dividend, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value (as determined by the Board, in good faith) of any securities or other assets paid on each share of Common Stock in respect of such Extraordinary Dividend. For purposes of this subsection 3.1.2, “Ordinary Cash Dividends” means any cash dividend or cash distribution which, when combined on a per share basis, with the per share amounts of all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the Common Stock during the 365-day period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution (as adjusted to appropriately reflect any of the events referred to in other subsections of this Section 4 and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in an adjustment to the Warrant Price or to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of each OSN Warrant) does not exceed $0.50.

 

3.2 Aggregation of Shares. If after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 3.6 hereof, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of shares of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse stock split, reclassification or similar event, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of each OSN Warrant shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of Common Stock.

 

3.3 Adjustments in Warrant Price. Whenever the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the OSN Warrants is adjusted, as provided in subsection 3.1.1 or Section 3.2 above, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted (to the nearest cent) by multiplying such Warrant Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the OSN Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock so purchasable immediately thereafter.

 

3.4 Replacement of Securities upon Reorganization, etc. In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than a change under subsections 3.1.1 or 3.1.2 or Section 3.2 hereof or that solely affects the par value of such shares of Common Stock), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity or conversion of the Company as another entity (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation (and is not a subsidiary of another entity whose stockholders did not own all or substantially all of the Common Stock of the Company in substantially the same proportions immediately before such transaction) and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another entity of the assets or other property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is dissolved, the Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the OSN Warrants and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the Holder would have received if such holder had exercised its OSN Warrant(s) immediately prior to such event (the “Alternative Issuance”), provided, however, that (i) if the holders of the Common Stock were entitled to exercise a right of election as to the kind or amount of securities, cash or other assets receivable upon such consolidation or merger, then the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets constituting the Alternative Issuance for which each OSN Warrant shall become exercisable shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the kind and amount received per share by the holders of the Common Stock in such consolidation or merger that affirmatively make such election, and (ii) if a tender, exchange or redemption offer shall have been made to and accepted by the holders of the Common Stock under circumstances in which, upon completion of such tender or exchange offer, the maker thereof, together with members of any group (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), (or any successor rule)) of which such maker is a part, and together with any affiliate or associate of such maker (within the meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act (or any successor rule)) and any members of any such group of which any such affiliate or associate is a part, own beneficially (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act (or any successor rule)) more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder shall be entitled to receive as the Alternative Issuance, the highest amount of cash, securities or other property to which the Holder would actually have been entitled as a stockholder if it had exercised the OSN Warrant prior to the expiration of such tender or exchange offer, accepted such offer and all of the Common Stock held by such holder had been purchased pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, subject to adjustments (from and after the consummation of such tender or exchange offer) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for in this Section 3; provided further that if less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of the Common Stock in the applicable event is payable in the form of common stock in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or is quoted in an established over-the- counter market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately following such event, and if the Holder properly exercises the OSN Warrant within thirty (30) days following the public disclosure of the consummation of such applicable event by the Company pursuant to a Form 6-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Warrant Price shall be reduced by an amount (in dollars) equal to the difference (but in no event less than zero) of (i) the Warrant Price in effect prior to such reduction minus (ii) (A) the Per Share Consideration (as defined below) minus (B) the Black-Scholes Warrant Value (as defined below). The “Black-Scholes Warrant Value” means the value of an OSN Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of the applicable event based on the Black- Scholes Warrant Model for a Capped American Call on Bloomberg Financial Markets (“Bloomberg”).

 

4

 

 

For purposes of calculating such amount, (1) Section 5 of this Agreement shall be taken into account, (2) the price of each share of Common Stock shall be the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the effective date of the applicable event, (3) the assumed volatility shall be the 90 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg determined as of the trading day immediately prior to the day of the announcement of the applicable event, and (4) the assumed risk-free interest rate shall correspond to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the remaining term of the OSN Warrant. “Per Share Consideration” means (i) if the consideration paid to holders of the Common Stock consists exclusively of cash, the amount of such cash per share of Common Stock, and (ii) in all other cases, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock as reported during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the effective date of the applicable event. If any reclassification or reorganization also results in a change in shares of Common Stock covered by subsection 3.1.1, then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to subsection 3.1.1 or Sections 3.2 and 3.3 and this Section 3.4. The provisions of this Section 3.4 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers or consolidations, sales or other transfers. In no event will the Warrant Price be reduced to less than the par value per share issuable upon exercise of the OSN Warrant.

 

3.5 Notices of Changes in OSN Warrant. Upon every adjustment of the Warrant Price or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of an OSN Warrant, the Company shall give written notice thereof to the Holder, which notice shall state the Warrant Price resulting from such adjustment and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable at such price upon the exercise of an OSN Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Upon the occurrence of any event specified in Section 3.1, 3.2 3.3, or 3.4, the Company shall give written notice of the occurrence of such event to the Holder, at the last address set forth for it in the Warrant Register, of the record date or the effective date of the event. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such event.

 

3.6 No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of OSN Warrants. If, by reason of any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3, the Holder would be entitled, upon the exercise of such OSN Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company shall, upon such exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder.

 

3.7 Form of OSN Warrant. The OSN Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment pursuant to this Section 3, and OSN Warrants issued after such adjustment may state the same Warrant Price and the same number of shares of Common Stock as is stated in the OSN Warrants initially issued; provided, however, that the Company may at any time in its sole discretion make any change in the OSN Warrant that the Company may deem appropriate and that does not affect the substance thereof, and any OSN Warrant thereafter issued or countersigned, whether in exchange or substitution for an outstanding OSN Warrant or otherwise, may be in the form as so changed.

 

5

 

 

3.8 Other Events. In case any event shall occur affecting the Company as to which none of the provisions of the preceding subsections of this Section 3 are strictly applicable, but which would require an adjustment to the terms of the OSN Warrants in order to (i) avoid an adverse impact on the OSN Warrants and (ii) effectuate the intent and purpose of this Section 3, then, in each such case, the Company shall appoint a firm of independent public accountants, investment banking or other appraisal firm of recognized national standing, which shall give its opinion as to whether or not any adjustment to the rights represented by the OSN Warrants is necessary to effectuate the intent and purpose of this Section 3 and, if they determine that an adjustment is necessary, the terms of such adjustment. The Company shall adjust the terms of the OSN Warrants in a manner that is consistent with any adjustment recommended in such opinion.

 

4. Transfer and Exchange of Warrants.

 

4.1 Transfer of Warrants. Subject to the transfer conditions herein, this OSN Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, by the Holder without charge to the Holder, upon surrender of this OSN Warrant to the Company at its then principal executive offices with a properly completed and duly executed assignment agreement in a form satisfactory to the Company, acting reasonably, together with funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes in connection with the making of such transfer. Upon such compliance, surrender, and delivery and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new OSN Warrant or OSN Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new OSN Warrant evidencing the portion of this OSN Warrant, if any, not so assigned and this OSN Warrant shall promptly be cancelled.

 

4.2 Fractional OSN Warrants. The Company shall not be required to effect any registration of transfer or exchange which shall result in the issuance of a book-entry position for a fraction of a warrant.

 

4.3 Service Charges. No service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of OSN Warrants.

 

5. Redemption.

 

5.1 Redemption of OSN Warrants for Cash. All, but not less than all, of the outstanding OSN Warrants may be redeemed, at the option of the Company, at any time while they are exercisable and prior to their expiration, upon notice to the Holder, as described in Section 5.2 below, at the price of $0.01 per OSN Warrant (the “Redemption Price”), provided that the reported closing price of the Common Stock has been at least $18.00 per share (subject to adjustment in compliance with Section 3 hereof), on each of twenty (20) trading days within the thirty (30) trading-day period ending on the third business day prior to the date on which notice of the redemption is given; provided further that there is an effective registration statement covering the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the OSN Warrants, and a current prospectus relating thereto, available throughout the 30-day Redemption Period (as defined in Section 5.2 below) or the Company has elected to require the exercise of the OSN Warrants on a “cashless basis” pursuant to subsection 2.3.1 and such cashless exercise is exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

 

5.2 Date Fixed for, and Notice of, Redemption. In the event that the Company elects to redeem all of the OSN Warrants pursuant to Section 5.1, the Company shall fix a date for the redemption (the “Redemption Date”). Notice of redemption shall be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, by the Company not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Redemption Date (such period, the “Redemption Period) to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear on the registration books. Any notice mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given whether or not the Holder received such notice.

 

6

 

 

5.3 Exercise After Notice of Redemption. The OSN Warrants may be exercised, for cash (or on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 2.3.1 of this Agreement) at any time after notice of redemption shall have been given by the Company pursuant to Section 5.2 hereof and prior to the Redemption Date. In the event that the Company determines to require the Holder to exercise its OSN Warrants on a “cashless basis” pursuant to Section 2.3.1, the notice of redemption shall contain the information necessary to calculate the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of the OSN Warrants, including the “Fair Market Value” (as such term is defined in Section 2.3.1 hereof, as applicable) in such case. On and after the Redemption Date, the record holder of the OSN Warrants shall have no further rights except to receive, upon surrender of the OSN Warrants, the Redemption Price.

 

6. Other Provisions Relating to Rights of Holder.

 

6.1 No Rights as Stockholder. An OSN Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends, or other distributions, exercise any preemptive rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter.

 

6.2 Lost, Stolen, Mutilated, or Destroyed Warrants. If any OSN Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed, the Company may on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as it may in its discretion impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated OSN Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new OSN Warrant of like denomination, tenor, and date as the OSN Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed. Any such new OSN Warrant shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed OSN Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

 

6.3 Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock that shall be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding OSN Warrants issued pursuant to this Agreement.

 

6.4 Registration of Common Stock; Cashless Exercise at Company’s Option.

 

6.4.1 Registration of the Common Stock. The Holder shall have the right, during any period when the Company shall fail to have maintained an effective registration statement covering the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the OSN Warrants, to exercise such OSN Warrants on a “cashless basis,” by exchanging the OSN Warrants (in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act (or any successor rule) or another exemption) for that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the OSN Warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “Fair Market Value” (as defined below) over the Warrant Price by (y) the Fair Market Value. Solely for purposes of this subsection 6.4.1, “Fair Market Value” shall mean the average closing price of the Common Stock for the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the date that notice of exercise is received by the Company from the Holder. The date that notice of cashless exercise is received by the Company shall be conclusively determined by the Company. In connection with the “cashless exercise” of an OSN Warrant, the Holder shall, upon request, provide the Company with an opinion of counsel for the Holder (which shall be an outside law firm with securities law experience) stating that (i) the exercise of the OSN Warrants on a cashless basis in accordance with this subsection 6.4.1 is not required to be registered under the Securities Act and (ii) the shares of Common Stock issued upon such exercise shall be freely tradable under United States federal securities laws by anyone who is not an affiliate (as such term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule)) of the Company and, accordingly, shall not be required to bear a restrictive legend.

 

6.4.2 Cashless Exercise at Company’s Option. If the Common Stock is at the time of any exercise of an OSN Warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that it satisfies the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act (or any successor rule), the Company may, at its option, require the Holder to exercise such OSN Warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act (or any successor rule) as described in subsection 6.4.1 and (i) in the event the Company so elects, the Company shall not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the OSN Warrants, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary or (ii) if the Company does not so elect, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to register or qualify for sale the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the OSN Warrants under the blue sky laws of the state of residence of the exercising Holder to the extent an exemption is not available.

 

7

 

 

6.5 Authorized Common Stock. The Company shall at all time have authorized and reserved, free from preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the OSN Warrants to permit such conversion or otherwise is sufficient to satisfy its obligations under the this Agreement.

Article IV
Registration Rights

 

Section 4.01 Shelf Registration. The Company shall file as promptly as practicable (but no later than thirty (30) days after the date of this Agreement), and shall thereafter use its reasonable best efforts to make and keep effective (including by renewing or refiling upon expiration) until such time that there are no longer any Registrable Securities outstanding, a shelf registration statement permitting the resale from time to time on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act (or any successor rule thereto) by Subscriber and its Affiliates of the Registrable Securities, which registration statement shall be filed on (a) Form F-3 or Form S-3, as applicable, or any similar short-form registration statement that may be available at such time, if the Company is then eligible to register a secondary offering on such form (“F-3/S-3 Eligible”), or (b) Form F-1 or Form S-1, as applicable, or any similar long-form registration statement that may be available at such time, if the Company is not then S-3 Eligible. The resale shelf registration statement required by this Section 4.01 shall remain effective as long as any of the Ordinary Shares registered thereon remain Registrable Securities. Once such shelf registration statement has become effective, if the Company is F-3/S-3 Eligible, the Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the written request of Subscriber for a firm commitment underwritten offering of Registrable Securities (an “Underwritten Offering”) pursuant to such shelf registration statement with anticipated aggregate gross proceeds of at least $10 million (a “Takedown Request”), file a prospectus supplement (a “Takedown Prospectus Supplement”) to such shelf registration statement filed under Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act with respect to such Underwritten Offering. Subscriber agrees to provide the Company with such information in connection with a Takedown Request as may be reasonably requested by the Company to facilitate such Takedown Request. A Takedown Request may include a request to consummate a block trade, bought deal, or overnight transaction, in addition to an Underwritten Offering.

 

Section 4.02 Demand Registrations. At any time at which time the shelf registration statement required pursuant to Section 4.01 shall not be available for the resale of the Registrable Securities or an Underwritten Offering, including if for any reason the Company shall be ineligible to maintain or use a shelf registration statement for a secondary offering, the Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the written request of Subscriber or any of its Affiliates for registration under the Securities Act of all or part of the Registrable Securities (a “Demand Request”), file a registration statement with the SEC (a “Demand Registration Statement”) with respect to resales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Subscriber’s or any of its Affiliates’ intended method of distribution thereof or an Underwritten Offering with anticipated aggregate gross proceeds for at least $10 million, and shall, subject to the terms of this Article IV, use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Demand Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof; provided that such Demand Registration Statement shall be filed on (a) Form F-3 or Form S-3, as applicable, or any similar short-form registration statement that may be available at such time for a secondary offering, if the Company is then F-3/S-3 Eligible, or (b) Form F-1 or Form F-1, as applicable, or any similar long-form registration statement that may be available at such time, if the Company is not then F-3/S-3 Eligible. Each Demand Request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities to be registered and the intended method or methods of distribution thereof. Subscriber agrees to provide the Company with such information in connection with a Demand Request as may be reasonably requested by the Company to facilitate such Demand Request.

Section 4.03 Registration Obligations.

 

(a) Any Takedown Request or Demand Request may be revoked by notice from Subscriber to the Company at any time prior to pricing of the offering, in the case of a Takedown Request, or the effective date of the Demand Registration Statement, in the case of a Demand Request. Subscriber may not make more than one Takedown Request or Demand Request in any seventy (70)-day period, including any Takedown Request or Demand Request that has been revoked as set forth in this Section 4.03(a), it being understood that (i) if any Underwritten Offering is consummated pursuant to a Takedown Request or a Demand Request, such seventy (70)-day period shall commence on the closing date of such offering and (ii) the Company shall not be obligated to effect any Takedown Request or Demand Request if, as of the date of the request, at least three Underwritten Offerings have been consummated within the trailing twelve (12) month period pursuant to a Takedown Request and/or Demand Request.

 

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to postpone and delay, for reasonable periods of time not in excess of forty-five (45) days in any three hundred and sixty-five (365) day period, but in no event more than twice in any three hundred and sixty-five (365) day period (a “Blackout Period”), the filing or effectiveness of any Takedown Prospectus Supplement or Demand Registration Statement or the offer or sale of any Registrable Securities thereunder if, in the good faith judgment of the Company Board, such filing or the offering or sale of any Registrable Securities thereunder would (i) require disclosure of material non-public information which, if disclosed at such time, would not be in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders, or (ii) have a material adverse effect on the Company such that the Company Board concludes as a result that it is essential to defer the filing of such Takedown Prospectus Supplement or Demand Registration Statement at such time, then in each case the Company shall furnish to the Subscriber a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Company Board it would have a material adverse effect on the Company for such Takedown Prospectus Supplement or Demand Registration Statement to be filed in the near future and that it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such Takedown Prospectus Supplement or Demand Registration Statement; provided that in the event that the Company proposes to register Ordinary Shares, whether or not for sale for its own account, during a Blackout Period, Subscriber and its Affiliates shall have the right to exercise its rights under Section 4.04 with respect to such registration, subject to the limitations contained in this Agreement on the exercise of such rights. Upon written notice by the Company to Subscriber of any such determination, Subscriber shall, except as required by applicable Law, including any disclosure obligations under Section 13 of the Exchange Act, keep the fact of any such notice strictly confidential, and during any Blackout Period, promptly halt any offer, sale, trading or transfer by it of any Ordinary Shares for the duration of the Blackout Period set forth in such notice (or until such Blackout Period shall be earlier terminated in writing by the Company) and promptly halt any use, publication, dissemination or distribution of any prospectus or prospectus supplement covering such Registrable Securities for the duration of the Blackout Period set forth in such notice (or until such Blackout Period shall be earlier terminated in writing by the Company) and, if so directed by the Company, shall deliver to the Company any copies then in its possession of any such prospectus or prospectus supplement.

 

(c) In connection with any offering pursuant to a Takedown Request or a Demand Registration Statement, the managing underwriter(s) for such offering shall be selected by Subscriber, subject to approval by the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 4.04 Piggyback Registration. If the Company at any time proposes or is required to register any Ordinary Shares under the Securities Act on its behalf or on behalf of any of its Shareholders (other than pursuant to Section 4.01 or Section 4.02), on a form and in a manner that would permit registration of the Registrable Securities (other than in connection with dividend reinvestment plans, rights offerings or a registration statement on Form F-4/S-4, F-6 or S-8 or any similar successor form), the Company shall give Subscriber written notice of its intent to do so not less than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the contemplated filing date for such registration statement or prospectus supplement (provided that, in the case of a block trade pursuant to an existing shelf registration statement, only two (2) Business Days’ notice shall be required). Upon the written request of Subscriber (a “Piggyback Request”), given within five (5) Business Days (or on the next Business Day in the case of a block trade) following the time that Subscriber was given any such written notice (which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered on behalf of Subscriber and its Affiliates) (the “Piggyback Securities”), the Company shall include in such registration statement (a “Piggyback Registration”) the number of Registrable Securities set forth in such Piggyback Request.

 

Section 4.05 Cutbacks. In the event that (A) the Company proposes or is required (other than pursuant to a Takedown Request or Demand Request) to register Ordinary Shares in connection with an Underwritten Offering, (B) Subscriber or its Affiliates have made a Piggyback Request with respect to such offering, and (C) the managing underwriter thereof shall have reasonably advised the Company, Subscriber, Subscriber’s Affiliates or any other holder of Ordinary Shares intending to offer Ordinary Shares in the offering (each, an “Other Holder”) in writing that, in its opinion, the inclusion in the registration statement of some or all of the Ordinary Shares sought to be registered by the Company, Subscriber, Subscriber’s Affiliates or the Other Holder(s) would adversely affect the price or success of the offering, the Company shall include in such registration statement such number of Ordinary Shares as the Company is advised can be sold in such offering without such an effect (the “Maximum Number”) as follows and in the following order of priority:

 

(a) if such registration is by the Company for its own account, (i) first, such number of Ordinary Shares as the Company proposes to register for its own account up to the Maximum Number, (ii) second, to the extent the number of Ordinary Shares to be included in the registration pursuant to clause (i) is less than the Maximum Number, such number of Registrable Securities as Subscriber and its Affiliates propose to be included pursuant to a Piggyback Request up to the Maximum Number, and (iii) third, to the extent the number of Ordinary Shares to be included in the registration pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) is less than the Maximum Number, such number of Ordinary Shares as all Other Holders request to be included for their own account, on a pro rata basis up to the Maximum Number; or

 

(b) if such registration is pursuant to the demand registration rights of one or more Other Holders, (i) first, such number of Ordinary Shares as such Other Holder(s) propose to be included on a pro rata basis up to the Maximum Number, and (ii) second, to the extent the number of Ordinary Shares to be included in the registration pursuant to clause (i) is less than the Maximum Number, such number of Piggyback Securities as Subscriber and its Affiliates propose to be included pursuant to a Piggyback Request on a pro rata basis up to the Maximum Number, and (iii) third, to the extent the number of Ordinary Shares to be included in the registration pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) is less than the Maximum Number, such number of Ordinary Shares as the Company requests to be included, up to the Maximum Number. In any registration or offering pursuant to a Takedown Request or Demand Request, Subscriber and its Affiliates will be cut back last after the Company and any Other Holders.

(i)  prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement to effect such registration, cause such registration statement to become effective at the earliest possible date permitted under the rules and regulations of the Commission, and thereafter use reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to remain effective pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company may discontinue any registration of its securities which are not Registrable Securities at any time prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating thereto; provided, further, that before filing such registration statement or any amendments thereto, the Company will furnish to the counsel selected by Subscriber and its Affiliates (the “Selling Holders”) copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review of and comment by such counsel (it being understood that counsel to the Selling Holders will conduct its review and provide any comments promptly);

 

(ii)  prepare and file with the Commission such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith and any Exchange Act reports incorporated by reference therein as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement until such time as all of such securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Selling Holder(s) set forth in such registration statement;

 

(iii)  furnish to each Selling Holder and each underwriter, if any, of the securities being sold by such Selling Holder such number of conformed copies of such registration statement and of each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits), such number of copies of the prospectus contained in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus and any summary prospectus) and any other prospectus filed under Rule 424 under the Securities Act, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and such other documents as such Selling Holder and underwriter, if any, may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Selling Holder;

13

The Company shall take any and all actions, or cause such actions to be taken, as are necessary or appropriate to allow Subscriber or its Affiliates, as applicable, to participate fully in every Equity Issuance in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, subject to compliance with applicable Law and the listing standards of the Nasdaq or such other stock exchange upon which the Ordinary Shares are listed.

 

(b) In the event the Company proposes to undertake an Equity Issuance, the Company shall, at least fifteen (15) Business Days (or in the case of an Equity Issuance pursuant to an Underwritten Offering, two (2) Business Days) prior to the proposed Equity Issuance, give Subscriber written notice of its intention, describing the type of Equity Interests, the price at which such securities are proposed to be issued (or, in the case of an underwritten or a privately placed offering in which the price is not known at the time the notice is given, the method of determining the price and an estimate thereof), and all material terms and conditions upon which the Company proposes to effect the Equity Issuance. Subscriber and its Affiliates shall have fifteen (15) Business Days (or in the case of an Equity Issuance pursuant to an Underwritten Offering, two (2) Business Days) from the date Subscriber receives notice of the proposed Equity Issuance to elect to purchase their Pro Rata Portion of such Equity Issuance for the consideration and upon the terms and conditions specified in the notice by giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the quantity of Equity Interests to be so purchased.

 

(c) In the event that neither Subscriber nor any of its Affiliates exercise the right set forth in Section 5.01(b) above within the applicable period set forth therein, the Company shall have ninety (90) days thereafter to sell to other investors the Equity Interests in respect of which such pre-emptive rights were not exercised, at the same price and on substantially the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the Company’s notice to Subscriber.

Section 7.02 Indemnification and Contribution in respect of Registration Rights.

 

(a) The Company shall, and it hereby agrees to, indemnify and hold harmless Subscriber and each of the officers, directors, employees, members, managers, partners and agents or Affiliates of Subscriber and their controlling Persons, if any, in any offering or sale of the Registrable Securities, including pursuant to Section 4.01, Section 4.02 or Section 4.04, from and against any and all Losses, in each case, based on, arising out of, resulting from or in connection with any Proceeding, to which each such indemnified party may become subject, insofar as such Proceedings (including any amounts paid in settlement effected with the consent of the Company as provided herein), arise out of, relate to, are in connection with, or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or any preliminary or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein, or arise out of, relate to, are in connection with, or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to any such Person in any such case to the extent that any such Proceedings arise out of, relate to, are in connection with, or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such registration statement, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or preliminary or final prospectus, or amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon information furnished to the Company by Subscriber, any of its Affiliates, any underwriter or any Representative of Subscriber, expressly for use therein.

 

19

 

 

(b) Subscriber shall, and hereby agrees to, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Directors, officers, employees and controlling Persons, if any, in any offering or sale of Registrable Securities from and against any and all Losses, in each case, based on, arising out of, resulting from or in connection with any Proceedings to which each such indemnified party may become subject, insofar as such Proceedings (including any amounts paid in settlement as provided herein), arise out of, relate to, are in connection with, or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement, or any preliminary or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein, or arise out of, relate to, are in connection with, or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by Subscriber expressly for use therein.

 

(c) Subscriber and the Company agree that if, for any reason (other than as specified therein), the indemnification provisions contemplated by Section 7.01, Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.02(b), as applicable, are unavailable to or are insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Proceedings referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such Proceedings in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, with respect to the applicable offering of securities. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnifying Party or by such indemnified party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. If, however, the allocation in the first sentence of this Section 7.02(c) is not permitted by applicable Law, then each Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative fault, but also the relative benefits of the Indemnifying Party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The Parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 7.02(c) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the preceding sentences of this Section 7.02(c). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the Proceedings referred to above shall be deemed to include (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.03) any actual and documented out-of-pocket legal or other out-of-pocket fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action, proceeding or claim. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. No Person shall be liable for any amount of contribution if such Person would not be required to indemnify for such amount hereunder.

Section 7.03 Indemnification Procedures.

 

(a) If an indemnified party shall desire to assert any claim for indemnification provided for under Section 7.02 in respect of, arising out of or involving a Proceeding against the indemnified party, such indemnified party shall notify the Company or Subscriber, as the case may be (the “Indemnifying Party”), in writing of such Proceeding, the amount or the estimated amount sought thereunder to the extent then ascertainable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Proceeding), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto (a “Proceeding Notice”) promptly after receipt by such indemnified party of written notice of the Proceeding; provided, however, that failure to provide a Proceeding Notice shall not affect the indemnification obligations provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced by such failure to provide such notice on a timely basis. The indemnified party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after the indemnified party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the indemnified party relating to the Proceeding; provided, however, that failure to provide any such copies shall not affect the indemnification obligations provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced by such failure.

 

(b) If a Proceeding is made against an indemnified party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it so chooses and acknowledges without reservation its obligation to indemnify the indemnified party therefore, to assume the defense thereof with separate counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Should the Indemnifying Party so elect to assume the defense of a Proceeding, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the indemnified party for legal expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless the Proceeding involves potential conflicts of interest or there may be defenses available to the indemnified party which are different from or in addition to the defenses available to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, the indemnified party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense (except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence), separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the actual and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of counsel reasonably incurred by the indemnified party for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense thereof and as otherwise contemplated by the two immediately preceding sentences. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend any Proceeding, the other Party shall reasonably cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnifying Party’s written request) the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Proceeding, and use of reasonable efforts to make employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of a Proceeding, the indemnified party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Proceeding without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent. The Indemnifying Party may pay, settle or compromise a Proceeding without the written consent of the indemnified party, so long as such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all Liability in respect of such Proceeding, (ii) does not subject the indemnified party to any injunctive relief or other equitable remedy, and (iii) does not include a statement or admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

Section 8.12 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement (or any portion thereof) or the application of any such term or provision (or any portion thereof) to any Person or circumstance shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision hereof (or the remaining portion thereof) or the application of such term provision to any other Persons or circumstances which shall remain in full force and effect so long as either the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner adverse to any Party or such Party waives its rights under this Section 8.12 with respect thereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to replace such invalid, illegal or unenforceable term or provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that shall achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.
