The Purchaser understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” and have not been registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law and is acquiring the Securities as principal for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Securities or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, has no present intention of distributing any of such Securities in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law and has no direct or indirect arrangement or understandings with any other persons to distribute or regarding the distribution of such Securities in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law (this representation and warranty not limiting the Purchaser’s right to sell the Securities pursuant to a registration statement or otherwise in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws). The Purchaser is acquiring the Securities hereunder in the ordinary course of its business.

(c)                Purchaser Status. At the time the Purchaser was offered the Securities, it was, and as of the date hereof it is either: (i) an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3), (a)(7) or (a)(8) under the Securities Act or (ii) a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A(a) under the Securities Act. The Purchaser is not required to be registered as a broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act. The Purchaser has the authority and is duly and legally qualified to purchase and own the Securities. The Purchaser is able to bear the risk of such investment for an indefinite period and to afford a complete loss thereof.

(d)                Experience of the Purchaser. The Purchaser, either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Securities, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. The Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.

(e)                Information on Company. The Purchaser was afforded (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as the Purchaser deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning the merits and risks of acquiring the Securities; (ii) the right of access to information about the Company and its financial condition, results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable the Purchaser to evaluate the Securities; and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such additional information that the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to acquiring the Securities. In addition, the Purchaser may have received in writing from the Company such other information concerning its operations, financial condition and other matters as the Purchaser has requested, identified thereon as other written information (such other information is collectively, the “Other Written Information”), and considered all factors the Purchaser deems material in deciding on the advisability of investing in the Securities. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Company does not make or has not made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in Section 3.1.

(f)                 Compliance with Securities Act; Reliance on Exemptions. The Purchaser understands and agrees that the Securities have not been registered under the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities laws, by reason of their issuance in a transaction that does not require registration under the 1933 Act, and that such Securities must be held indefinitely unless a subsequent disposition is registered under the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from such registration. The Purchaser understands and agrees that the Securities are being offered and sold to the Purchaser in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and regulations and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire the Securities.

(g)                No Governmental Review. The Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other governmental or state agency has passed on or made recommendations or endorsement of the Securities or the suitability of the investment in the Securities nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Securities.

(h)                No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and performance under the other Transaction Documents and the consummation by the Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or relating hereto or thereto do not and will not (i) result in a violation of the Purchaser’s charter documents, bylaws or other organizational documents, if applicable, (ii) conflict with nor constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under any agreement to which the Purchaser is a party, nor (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, or regulation, or any order, judgment or decree of any court or governmental agency applicable to the Purchaser or its properties (except for such conflicts, defaults and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Purchaser). The Purchaser is not required to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or perform under the other Transaction Documents nor to purchase the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof, provided that for purposes of the representation made in this sentence, the Purchaser is assuming and relying upon the accuracy of the relevant representations and agreements of the Company herein.

 13 

 

(i)                 Tax Liability. The Purchaser has reviewed with its own tax advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 14 

 

4.4               Board of Directors. The Company hereby grants unto the Purchaser the right to have one (1) representative (the “Purchaser Director”) nominated and elected as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company. If exercised, such nomination and election shall occur at the first meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company subsequent to the Closing Date. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company represents, warrants and covenants to and with the Purchaser that (i) there currently exists a vacancy on the Board of Directors of the Company which, pursuant to the Company’s bylaws, the Board of Directors has the sole right and power to fill at any time, (ii) the Company shall cause such vacancy to be filled by Purchaser’s designee at the first meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company subsequent to the Closing Date, (iii) the Company Board of Directors shall, if necessary, increase the size of the Company Board of Directors, to accommodate the addition of the Purchaser Director and take all corporate action required by Law to promptly appoint such Purchaser Director to the Company Board of Directors; (iv) the Company Board of Directors shall, unless Purchaser notifies Company in writing of its election to cease having such Purchaser Director serve on the Company Board of Directors, renominate and reappoint such Purchaser Director to the Company Board of Directors annually or from time to time at such time as it renominates and reappoints other members of the Company Board of Directors (or to the extent that Company in the future submits nominations for directors to the Company Board of Directors to a vote of Company’s stockholders (or action by written consent of stockholders in lieu of a meeting), Company, the Company Board of Directors and any committee of the Company Board of Directors that oversees nominations to the Company Board of Directors shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to have the Purchaser Director reelected as to the Company Board of Directors by Company’s stockholders and shall solicit proxies for the Purchaser Director and take any and all such other actions to facilitate such reelection of the Purchaser Director to the same extent as it does for any of Company’s other nominees to the Company Board of Directors); (v) within one hundred eighty (180) days after the Closing Date, Company’s certificate of incorporation shall provide for indemnification of the members of the Company Board of Directors to the broadest extent permitted by applicable law; (vi) Company shall ensure that the Purchaser Director is afforded coverage under any Directors and Officers insurance policy then in effect on the same terms as other members of the Company Board of Directors; and (vii) Company shall enter into an indemnity agreement with the Purchaser Director on terms no less favorable than those included in the most director-favorable form of indemnity agreement provided to any member of the Company Board of Directors. All of the provisions contained in this Section shall survive the Closing for so long as the Purchaser remains a shareholder of the Company, provided that if a Change of Control of the Company shall occur the then controlling Person or the directors, other than a director appointed or elected pursuant to this Section 4.4 shall determine if the rights under this Section 4.4 shall continue.

4.5               Subscription Rights.

(a)                Sale of New Securities. If, at any time or from time to time during the Subscription Rights Period, Company makes any public or non-public offering of any equity (including Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalent, Capital Stock, Capital Stock Equivalents, preferred stock and restricted stock), or any other securities, warrants, options or debt that are convertible or exchangeable into equity or that include an equity component (such as an “equity kicker”) (including any hybrid security) (any such security a “New Security”), Purchaser shall be afforded the opportunity (provided, in the case of an offering that is not a registered public offering, that Purchaser satisfies any applicable “accredited investor,” “qualified institutional buyer” or other investor criteria applicable to such offering) to subscribe for a pro rata share of any New Security so offered for the same price and on the same terms as such New Security is proposed to be offered to others. Purchaser’s pro rata share, for purposes of this Section, is the ratio of the number of shares of Common Stock owned by Purchaser immediately prior to the issuance of a New Security (excluding any Warrant Shares or any shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 4.6 below (NMM Performance Metric and Additional Share Issuance) to the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on a Fully Diluted Basis immediately prior to the issuance of such New Security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the subscription rights set forth under this Section shall not apply to (1) any offering by Company pursuant to an Exempt Issuance or (2) issuances of any securities issued as a result of a stock split, stock dividend, reclassification or reorganization or similar event, but solely to the extent such issuance is made to all holders of Common Stock Equivalents. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that Company complies with its obligations pursuant to this Section with respect to any securities that are exercisable for Common Stock or other equity, Purchaser shall not have an additional right to purchase pursuant to this Section additional securities as a result of the issuance of New Securities upon the exercise of such earlier issued securities (whether or not such Purchaser exercised its right to purchase such earlier issued securities). Purchaser may not assign the right to exercise the subscription rights set forth in this Section with respect to any Securities to the extent it may otherwise transfer or assign such Securities under this Agreement, and any such assignee shall be treated as the “Purchaser” for purposes of this Section.

 15 

 

(b)                Notice. In the event Company proposes to offer New Securities, it shall give Purchaser written notice (or, if such a written notice would be required to be filed with the SEC, oral notice) of its intention, describing, to the extent then known, the price (or range of prices), anticipated amount of securities, timing and other terms upon which Company proposes to offer the same (including, in the case of a registered public offering and to the extent possible, a copy of the prospectus included in the registration statement filed with respect to such offering) no later than five Business Days, as the case may be, after the initial filing of a registration statement with the SEC with respect to an underwritten public offering, after the commencement of marketing with respect to a Rule 144A offering or after Company commences the marketing of any other offering; provided that for purposes of this Section 6.3, in addition to providing notice to Purchaser in accordance as set forth above, Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect actual notice of Purchaser as promptly as practicable, including via telephone and/or electronic mail (provided that Company shall contact only those persons listed on Purchaser’s signature page below and shall have no obligation to use electronic mail if such electronic mail would be required to be filed with the SEC). Company may provide such notice to Purchaser on a confidential basis (and Purchaser shall keep the information conveyed by notice confidential) prior to public disclosure of such offering. Purchaser shall have (i) twenty Business Days from the date of receipt of notice as set forth above but without accounting for any notice provided pursuant to the proviso above requiring Company to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide notice via telephone and/or electronic mail or, (ii) in the case or a “shelf takedown” from a shelf registration statement, two days from the receipt of such notice (such twenty or two day period, as applicable, the “Response Period”) to notify Company in writing whether it will exercise such subscription rights and as to the amount of New Securities Purchaser desires to purchase, up to its pro rata share of New Securities being offered. Such notice shall constitute a binding commitment by Purchaser to purchase the amount of New Securities so specified at the price and other terms set forth in Company’s notice to it and subject to other customary closing conditions and provided, with respect to a registered offering, that such notice shall not be binding unless and until Company can accept a binding commitment under applicable Laws. The failure of Purchaser to respond within the Response Period shall be deemed to be a waiver of Purchaser’s rights under this Section only with respect to the offering described in the applicable notice.

(c)                Purchase Mechanism. Subject to the next sentence, each of Company and Purchaser agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to secure any regulatory or stockholder approvals or other consents, and to comply with any law or regulation necessary in connection with and prior to the offer, sale and purchase of such New Securities, including calling a meeting of Company’s stockholders to vote on any matters requiring stockholder approval in connection with the offer, sale and purchase of such New Securities (the “Subscription Proposals”), recommending to Company’s stockholders that such stockholders vote in favor of any Subscription Proposals and soliciting proxies for approval of any Subscription Proposals. By the earlier of (i) within one hundred eighty (180) days after Closing and (ii) twenty (20) Business Days prior to the offer, sale and purchase of New Securities, Company shall amend its certificate of incorporation in order to permit Purchaser’s exercise of its rights under this Section and such amendment shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser.

 16 

 

(d)                Non-Cash Consideration. In the case of the offering of securities for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, including securities acquired in exchange therefor (other than securities by their terms so exchangeable), the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined by the Board of Directors; provided, however, that such fair value as determined by the Board of Directors shall not exceed the aggregate market price of the securities being offered as of the date the Board of Directors authorizes the offering of such securities.

(e)                Cooperation. Company and Purchaser shall cooperate in good faith to facilitate the exercise of such Purchaser’s rights pursuant to this Section, including securing any required approvals or consents.

(f)                 All of the provisions contained in this Section shall survive the Closing for the duration of the Subscription Rights Period.

4.6               NMM Performance Metric and Additional Share Issuance. If by December 31, 2022, the “NMM Performance Metric” (as defined in Exhibit E attached hereto) has not been achieved as determined by the Purchaser in its reasonable discretion, then, without payment of any additional consideration by the Purchaser, the Company shall issue to the Purchaser the greater of (a) one million (1,000,000) shares of Common Stock or (b) an aggregate number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) by the greater of (i) the volume weighted average price per share (VWAP) of the Common Stock traded on the applicable Trading Market, for the thirty (30) trading days ending on the close of the trading day two (2) days preceding the issuance date, or (ii) $2.25 per share of Common Stock. If applicable, the Company shall issue any shares of Common Stock required by this Section 4.6 on or before July 1, 2022. All shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Section 4.6 shall be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free and clear of all Liens, other than restrictions on transfer under applicable state and federal securities laws and Liens created by or imposed by the Purchaser. All of the provisions contained in this Section shall survive the Closing.

4.7               New MSA; Priority of AHPIPA Payments to NMM. Except for the Management Services Agreement dated February 25, 2021 (the “Related Party MSA”), between AHPIPA and the Company’s Subsidiary, AHP Management, Inc., at all times during the term of the New MSA, (a) during the term of the New MSA, as may be extended, NMM shall be the sole and exclusive provider of management services to AHPIPA pursuant to the New MSA; and (b) any and all amounts payable to NMM by AHPIPA pursuant to the New MSA shall have priority over, and be paid prior to payment of, any amounts owed by AHPIPA to the Company and/or any of its Affiliates, including, without limitation, any management fees owed by AHPIPA pursuant to the Related Party MSA All of the provisions contained in this Section shall survive the Closing.
