On December 13, 2022, Empery Tax Efficient, LP, on behalf of itself and as collateral agent to the holders of certain of the Issuer’s senior secured notes, filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York seeking a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction preventing performance of the Settlement Agreement, which temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction was subsequently granted.

•

the Issuer and Mr. Drexler will provide to White Winston a complete accounting of all debts owed to Mr. Drexler by the Issuer as of the Execution Date, which debts shall not be amended or increased without the written consent of White Winston after the Execution Date;

•

Mr. Drexler and White Winston will enter into an Intercreditor and Priority Agreement (the “Intercreditor Agreement”) governing their respective rights with respect to the Issuer’s obligation to pay the Cash Settlement Amount and to pay principal and interest under the Convertible Bond (collectively, the “White Winston Debt”);

•

the Issuer will make all commercially reasonable efforts to initiate, conduct and consummate a rights offering to give certain holders of the Issuer’s Common Stock (which shall not include ether of Mr. Drexler or White Winston) the right to purchase up to a maximum number of shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock equal to the Aggregate Indebtedness (as defined in the Settlement Agreement) divided by $0.40, the proceeds of which shall be applied to repay the Aggregate Indebtedness in the manner set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement;

•

following the completion of the above-described restructuring of the Board and a commercially reasonable transition period determined by the Board, but in no event later than six months thereafter, Mr. Drexler shall resign as Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer, and shall not seek or accept another C-Suite, officer, or substantially equivalent position with the Issuer or its affiliates;

•

Mr. Drexler shall, and shall cause each of his affiliates to, grant a proxy to White Winston to vote all of his and their shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock in favor of the persons designated as members of the Board pursuant to the Settlement Agreement (as described above) at any annual stockholders’ meeting (or meeting by written consent in lieu of the stockholders’ meeting) or at any special stockholders’ meeting called for the purpose of electing directors for a period of the greater of (i) the period in which any of the White Winston Debt remains outstanding or (ii) five years from the dismissal of the Actions; and

•

the Issuer, Mr. Drexler and White Winston shall enter into an Investor Rights Agreement to establish, among other things, (i) that White Winston and Mr. Drexler shall have preemptive rights (50%-50% with right of oversubscription) with respect to the issuance of any future debt, equity, or other securities of the Issuer, which right shall be exercisable by either for 30 days following receipt of notice of any third-party debt or equity financing, (ii) terms for the lock-up of shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock, including shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of the Warrant or conversion of the Convertible Bond, (iii) certain terms in favor of the Series Fund and Mr. Drexler, including rights of first refusal and tag-along rights with respect to shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock proposed to be transferred by the other parties to the Investor Rights Agreement, (iv) restrictions regarding so-called “related party transactions” among or between the Issuer and Mr. Drexler and (v) customary “drag along” rights in favor of White Winston and vis-à-vis Mr. Drexler and his affiliates in connection with any sale of the Issuer approved by White Winston and the Board.
