WORKSPORT LTD.

CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS, RIGHTS, AND PREFERENCES OF

8% SERIES C CUMULATIVE PREFERRED STOCK

 

Pursuant to Section 78.1955 of the Nevada Revised Statutes

 

Worksport Ltd., a Nevada corporation (the “Corporation”), hereby certifies that the following resolution was adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) pursuant to the authority of the Board of Directors as required by Section 78.1955 of the Nevada Revised Statutes.

 

WHEREAS, the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation (the “Articles of Incorporation”) provides for a class of its authorized stock known as preferred stock, comprised of 10,000,000 shares, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”), issuable from time to time in one or more series;

 

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors is authorized by the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation to fix the dividend rights, dividend rate, voting rights, conversion rights, rights and terms of redemption and liquidation preferences of any wholly unissued series of Preferred Stock and the number of shares constituting any such series;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that pursuant to this authority granted to and vested in the Board of Directors in accordance with the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation, the Board of Directors hereby adopts this Certificate of Designations, Rights, and Preferences (the “Certificate of Designation”) for the purpose of creating a series of Preferred Stock of the Corporation classified and designated as 8% Series C Cumulative Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series C Preferred”), and hereby states the designation and number of shares, and fixes the relative rights, powers and preferences, and qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Series C Preferred Stock as follows:

 

1. Designation and Amount. The shares of such series of Preferred Stock shall be designated as “8% Series C Cumulative Preferred Stock” and the number of shares constituting such series shall be 3,100,000 shares. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be identical in all respects to every other share of Series C Preferred Stock. Such number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock may from time to time be increased (but not in excess of the total number of authorized shares of preferred stock) or decreased (but not below the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock then outstanding) by further resolution duly adopted by the Board of Directors or any duly authorized committee of the Board of Directors and by the filing of a certificate pursuant to the provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes stating that such increase or reduction, as the case may be, has been so authorized. The Corporation shall have the authority to issue fractional shares of Series C Preferred Stock.

 

2. No Maturity, Sinking Fund. Mandatory Redemption. The Series C Preferred Stock has no stated maturity and will not be subject to any sinking fund for the payment of the redemption price or mandatory redemption, and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless the Corporation decides to redeem or otherwise repurchase the Series C Preferred Stock. The Corporation is not required to set aside funds to redeem the Series C Preferred Stock.

 

3. Ranking. The Series C Preferred Stock will rank: (i) senior to all classes or series of our common stock; (ii) on parity with any future class or series of our equity securities expressly designated as ranking on parity with the Series C Preferred Stock; (iii) junior to all equity securities issued by us with terms specifically providing that those equity securities rank senior to the Series C Preferred Stock with respect to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up; and; and (iv) effectively junior to all our existing and future indebtedness (including indebtedness convertible into our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock” or Preferred Stock) and to the indebtedness and other liabilities of (as well as any preferred equity interests held by others in) our existing or future subsidiaries. For purposes of clarification, the terms of the Series C Preferred Stock shall not limit the Corporation’s ability to (i) incur indebtedness or (ii) issue additional equity securities that are equal or junior in rank to the shares of Series C Preferred Stock as to distribution rights and rights upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

 

 

 

 

4. Dividends.

 

(a) Subject to the preferential rights of the holders of any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation ranking senior to the Series C Preferred Stock as to dividend rights, holders of shares of the Series C Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, out of funds of the Corporation legally available for the payment of dividends, cumulative cash dividends at the annual rate of 8% on $3.25 liquidation preference per share of the Series C Preferred Stock. Such dividends shall accrue and be cumulative from and including the first date on which any shares of Series C Preferred Stock are issued (the “Original Issue Date”), or, if later, the most recent Dividend Payment Date (as defined below) to which dividends have been paid in full (or declared and the corresponding Dividend Record Date (as defined below) for determining stockholders entitled to payment thereof has passed), and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Dividend Payment Date, commencing on October 15, 2025, provided, however, that if any Dividend Payment Date is not a Business Day (as defined below), then the dividend which would otherwise have been payable on such Dividend Payment Date may be paid on the next succeeding Business Day, except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if paid on such Dividend Payment Date, and no interest or additional dividends or other sums shall accrue on the amount so payable from such Dividend Payment Date to such next succeeding Business Day; provided, further, that no dividends shall accrue on any share of Series C Preferred Stock for any Dividend Period (as defined below) having a Dividend Record Date before the date such share of Series C Preferred Stock was issued. The amount of any dividend payable on the Series C Preferred Stock for any period greater or less than a full Dividend Period shall be prorated and computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Dividends will be payable to holders of record as they appear in the stockholder records of the Corporation at the close of business on the applicable Dividend Record Date. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, each holder of an outstanding share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive a dividend with respect to any Dividend Record Date equal to the dividend paid with respect to each other share of Series C Preferred Stock that is outstanding on such date. “Dividend Record Date” shall mean the date designated by the Board of Directors for the payment of dividends that is not more than thirty (30) days or fewer than ten (10 days prior to the applicable Dividend Payment Date. “Dividend Payment Date” shall mean the fifteenth (15th) calendar day of the month following the last month of a quarterly period commencing on July 1, 2025. “Dividend Period” shall mean the respective periods commencing on the first (1st) day of the first month of a quarterly period and ending on and including the day preceding the first (1st) day of the first month of the next succeeding quarterly period (other than the initial Dividend Period, which shall commence on the Original Issue Date and end on the day preceding the first (1st) day of the first month of the next succeeding quarterly period after the Original Issue Date). The term “Business Day” shall mean any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a federal legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions in New York City are authorized or required by law, regulation, or executive order to close. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no dividends shall accrue or be payable on any share of Series C Preferred Stock for any period after the second (2nd) anniversary of the Original Issue Date.

 

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock shall accrue whether or not the Corporation has earnings, whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of such dividends, and whether or not such dividends are authorized or declared.

 

(c) Except as provided in Section 4(d) or below, the Board of Directors may not authorize or issue any class or series of equity securities ranking senior to the Series C Preferred Stock as to dividends or distributions upon liquidation (including securities convertible into or exchangeable for any such senior equity securities) and the Corporation may not amend the Articles of Incorporation (whether by merger, consolidation, or otherwise), to materially, and adversely change the terms of the Series C Preferred Stock without the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on that matter by the holders of the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock, voting together as a class. Other than this Section 4(c), the holders of the shares of our Series C Preferred Stock shall not have any voting rights.

 

(d) Holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any dividend, whether payable in cash, property or shares of capital stock, in excess of full cumulative dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock as provided herein. Any dividend payment made on the Series C Preferred Stock shall first be credited against the earliest accrued but unpaid dividends due with respect to such shares which remain payable. Accrued but unpaid dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock will accrue as of the Dividend Payment Date on which they first become payable.

 

 

 

 

(e) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4 or Sections 6 and regardless of whether dividends are paid in full (or declared and a sum sufficient for such full payment is not so set apart) on the Series C Preferred Stock or the shares of any other class or series of capital stock ranking, as to dividends, on parity with the Series C Preferred Stock for any or all Dividend Periods, the Corporation shall not be prohibited or limited from (i) paying dividends on any shares of stock of the Corporation in shares of Common Stock or in shares of any other class or series of capital stock ranking junior to the Series C Preferred Stock as to payment of dividends and the distribution of assets upon the Corporation’s liquidation, dissolution, and winding up, (ii) converting or exchanging any shares of stock of the Corporation for shares of any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation ranking junior to the Series C Preferred Stock as to payment of dividends and the distribution of assets upon the Corporation’s liquidation, dissolution, and winding up, or (iii) purchasing or acquiring shares of Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to a purchase or exchange offer made on the same terms to holders of all outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock. For the purposes of clarification, nothing in this Section 4(e) shall be construed to permit the authorization or issuance of any equity securities ranking senior to the Series C Preferred Stock as to dividends or liquidation preferences, or to permit any amendment to the rights of the Series C Preferred Stock, without the affirmative vote of the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock as required by Section (c).

 

5. Liquidation Preference.

 

(a) Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation, before any distribution or payment shall be made to holders of shares of Common Stock or any other class or series of capital stock of the Corporation ranking, as to rights upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation, junior to the Series C Preferred Stock, the holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution to its stockholders, after payment of or provision for the debts and other liabilities of the Corporation and any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation ranking, as to rights upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation, senior to the Series C Preferred Stock, a liquidation preference of $3.25 per share, plus an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid dividends (whether or not authorized or declared) up to the date of payment. In the event that, upon such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, the available assets of the Corporation are insufficient to pay the full amount of the liquidating distributions on all outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock and the corresponding amounts payable on all shares of other classes or series of capital stock of the Corporation ranking, as to rights upon the Corporation’s liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, on parity with the Series C Preferred Stock in the distribution of assets, then the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock and each such other class or series of capital stock ranking, as to rights upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, on parity with the Series C Preferred Stock shall share ratably in any such distribution of assets in proportion to the full liquidating distributions to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled. Written notice of any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation, stating the payment date or dates when, and the place or places where, the amounts distributable in such circumstances shall be payable, shall be given not fewer than thirty (30) days or more than sixty (60) days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each record holder of shares of Series C Preferred Stock at the respective addresses of such holders as the same shall appear on the stock transfer records of the Corporation. After payment of the full amount of the liquidating distributions to which they are entitled, the holders of Series C Preferred Stock will have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the Corporation. The consolidation, merger, or conversion of the Corporation with or into any other corporation, trust, or entity, or the voluntary sale, lease, transfer, or conveyance of all or substantially all of the property or business of the Corporation, shall not be deemed to constitute a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation.

 

(b) In determining whether a distribution (other than upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation), by dividend, redemption, or other acquisition of shares of capital stock of the Corporation or otherwise, is permitted under the Nevada Revised Statutes amounts that would be needed, if the Corporation were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall not be added to the Corporation’s total liabilities.

 

 

 

 

6. Voting Rights. Other than the rights set forth in Section 4(c), the Series C Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights.

 

7. Conversion.

 

(a) Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at any time and from time to time from and after the Original Issue Date, at the option of the holder thereof, into one (1) share of Common Stock. Holders shall effect conversions by providing the Corporation with a completed duly executed form of conversion notice attached hereto as Exhibit A (a “Notice of Conversion”). Other than a conversion following a Fundamental Transaction or following a notice provided for, the Notice of Conversion must specify a number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock to be converted equal to the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock then held by the holder. Provided the Corporation’s transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, the Notice of Conversion may specify, at the holder’s election, whether the applicable Conversion Shares shall be credited to the account of the holder’s prime broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system (a “DWAC Delivery”). The date on which a conversion shall be deemed effective (the “Conversion Date”), shall be defined as the Trading Day that the Notice of Conversion, completed and duly executed, is sent by facsimile to, and received during regular business hours by, the Corporation; provided that the original certificate(s) representing such shares of Series C Preferred Stock being converted, duly endorsed, and the accompanying Notice of Conversion, are received by the Corporation within two (2) Trading Days thereafter. In all other cases, the Conversion Date shall be defined as the Trading Day on which the original shares of Series C Preferred Stock being converted, duly endorsed, and the accompanying Notice of Conversion, are received by the Corporation. The calculations set forth in the Notice of Conversion shall control in the absence of manifest or mathematical error. The following events are deemed as “Fundamental Transactions”: (i) a Change of Control; (ii) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance, or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions; and (iii) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization, or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash, or property.

 

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Corporation shall not effect any conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock, and a holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of the Series C Preferred Stock, to the extent that, after giving effect to an attempted conversion set forth on an applicable Notice of Conversion, such holder (together with such holder’s affiliates, and any other Person whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including any “group” of which the holder is a member) would beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock subject to the Notice of Conversion with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining, unconverted Series C Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such holder or any of its affiliates, and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Corporation (including any warrants) beneficially owned by such holder or any of its affiliates that are subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise similar to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the SEC. In addition, for purposes hereof, “group” has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the SEC. It is understood that the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by each Investor shall be aggregated with each other Investor for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. For purposes of this Section 7(b), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (A) the Corporation’s most recent periodic or annual filing with SEC, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Corporation that is filed with the SEC, or (C) a notice filed with the SEC or otherwise publicly available. The Corporation shall not be obligated to confirm the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock in response to a holder’s direct request. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to any actual conversion or exercise of securities of the Corporation, including shares of Series C Preferred Stock, by such holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was last publicly reported or confirmed to the holder. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Notice of Conversion. The Corporation shall be entitled to rely on representations made to it by the holder in any Notice of Conversion regarding its Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

 

 

 

 

(c) Mechanics of Conversion.

 

(i) Not later than three (3) Trading Days after the applicable Conversion Date, or if the holder requests the issuance of physical certificate(s), two (2) Trading Days after receipt by the Corporation of the original certificate(s) representing such shares of Series C Preferred Stock being converted, duly endorsed, and the accompanying Notice of Conversion (the “Share Delivery Date”) the Corporation shall (a) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the converting holder a physical certificate or certificates representing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion of shares of Series C Preferred Stock or (b) in the case of a DWAC Delivery, electronically transfer such Conversion Shares by crediting the account of the holder’s prime broker with DTC through its DWAC system. If in the case of any Notice of Conversion such certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by or, in the case of a DWAC Delivery, such shares are not electronically delivered to or as directed by, the applicable holder by the Share Delivery Date, the applicable holder shall be entitled to elect to rescind such Conversion Notice by written notice to the Corporation at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates for Conversion Shares or electronic receipt of such shares, as applicable, in which event the Corporation shall promptly return to such holder any original Series C Preferred Stock certificate delivered to the Corporation and such holder shall promptly return to the Corporation any Common Stock certificates or otherwise direct the return of any shares of Common Stock delivered to the holder through the DWAC system, representing the shares of Series C Preferred Stock unsuccessfully tendered for conversion to the Corporation.

 

(ii) If the Corporation fails to deliver to a holder the applicable certificate or certificates or to effect a DWAC Delivery, as applicable, by the Share Delivery Date (other than a failure caused by incorrect or incomplete information provided by a holder to the Corporation), and if after such Share Delivery Date such holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise), or the holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such holder of the Conversion Shares which such holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating to such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the Corporation shall (A) pay in cash to such holder (in addition to any other remedies available to or elected by such holder) the amount by which (x) such holder’s total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (I) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that such holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions) and (B) at the option of such holder, either reissue (if surrendered) the shares of Series C Preferred Stock equal to the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock submitted for conversion or deliver to such holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Corporation had timely complied with its delivery requirements. For example, if a holder purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of$11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of shares of Series C Preferred Stock with respect to which the actual sale price (including any brokerage commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of$10,000 under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Corporation shall be required to pay such holder $1,000. The holder shall provide the Corporation written notice, within three (3) Trading Days after the occurrence of a Buy-In, indicating the amounts payable to such holder in respect of such Buy-In together with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested by the Corporation. Nothing herein shall limit a holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Corporation’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock as required pursuant to the terms hereof; provided, however, that the holder shall not be entitled to both (i) require the reissuance of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock submitted for conversion for which such conversion was not timely honored and (ii) receive the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Corporation had timely complied with its delivery requirements.

 

 

 

 

(iii) The Corporation covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock, not less than such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock as shall be issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock. The Corporation covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable.

 

(iv) No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock. As to any fraction of a share which a holder would otherwise be entitled to receive upon such conversion, the Corporation shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share.

 

(v) The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to any holder for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificates, provided that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the registered holder(s) of such shares of Series C Preferred Stock and the Corporation shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or entity requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Corporation the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid.

 

(d) Upon each Conversion Date, (i) the shares of Series C Preferred Stock being converted shall be deemed converted into shares of Common Stock and (ii) the holder’s rights as a holder of such converted shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall cease and terminate, excepting only the right to receive certificates for such shares of Common Stock and to any remedies provided herein or otherwise available at law or in equity to such holder because of a failure by the Corporation to comply with the terms of this Certificate of Designation. In all cases, the holder shall retain all of its rights and remedies for the Corporation’s failure to convert Series C Preferred Stock.

 

(e) At any time after the Original Issue Date, the Corporation shall have the right to cause all (but not less than all) of the then-outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock to be automatically converted into Common Stock at the conversion ratio set forth in Section 7(a) upon the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the closing price of the Common Stock is at or above $5.00 per share for ten (10) consecutive Trading Days; and (ii) the consummation of a Change of Control. The Corporation shall provide not less than five (5) nor more than ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the holders of record of Series C Preferred Stock of such mandatory conversion.

 

(f) Effective on the date that is the second (2nd) anniversary of the Original Issue Date (the “Automatic Conversion Date”), each share of Series C Preferred Stock then outstanding shall automatically convert into one (1) share of Common Stock (subject to adjustment as provided in this Certificate of Designation) without any action on the part of the holder thereof. The Corporation shall deliver to each holder of Series C Preferred Stock a written notice of such automatic conversion not less than five (5) Trading Days before the Automatic Conversion Date.

Digital Offering, LLC
1461 Glenneyre Street, Suite D

Laguna Beach, CA 92651

 

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Worksport Ltd., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), proposes, subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Selling Agency Agreement (this “Agreement”), to issue and sell on a “best efforts” basis up to a maximum of 3,100,000 units, each unit consisting of one (1) share of 8% Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), and one (1) warrant (each a “Warrant,” and collectively the “Warrants”) to purchase one (1) share of common stock at a purchase price of $4.50 per share, to investors (each an “Investor” and collectively, the “Investors”), at a purchase price of $3.25 per Unit (the “Purchase Price”), in an offering (the “Offering”) pursuant to Regulation A through Digital Offering LLC (the “Selling Agent”), acting on a best efforts basis only, in connection with such sales. The units to be sold in this offering are referred to herein as the “Units.” The Units are more fully described in the Offering Statement (as hereinafter defined).

 

The Company hereby confirms its agreement with the Selling Agent concerning the purchase and sale of the Units, as follows:

 

1. Agreement to Act as Selling Agent.

 

(a) Best Efforts Basis. On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements of the Company herein contained and subject to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Selling Agent agrees to act on a best efforts basis only, in connection with the issuance and sale by the Company of the Units to the Investors. Under no circumstances will the Selling Agent be obligated to underwrite or purchase any of the Units for its own account or otherwise provide any financing.

 

(b) Selling Agent’s Commissions. The Company will pay to the Selling Agent a cash commission equal to seven percent (7.00%) (the “Cash Fee”) of the gross offering proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Units, which shall be allocated by the Selling Agent to Dealers (as hereinafter defined) participating in the Offering, in its sole discretion.

 

(c) Selected Dealer Agreements. The Selling Agent shall have the right to enter into selected dealer agreements with other broker-dealers participating in the Offering (each dealer being referred to herein as a “Dealer” and said dealers being collectively referred to herein as the “Dealers”). The Cash Fee shall be re-allowable, in whole or in part, to the Dealers. The Company will not be liable or responsible to any Dealer for direct payment of compensation to any Dealer, it being the sole and exclusive responsibility of the Selling Agent for payment of compensation to Dealers.

 

 

 

 

2. Delivery and Payment.

 

(a) On or after the date of this Agreement, the Company, the Selling Agent, Dealmaker Securities LLC, and Enterprise Bank Limited (“Enterprise Bank”) will enter into an Escrow Agreement substantially in the form included as an exhibit to filed with the Offering Statement (the “Enterprise Bank Escrow Agreement”), pursuant to which an escrow account will be established, at the Company’s expense, for Investors that participate in the Offering (the “Escrow Account”). Enterprise Bank is referred to herein as the “Escrow Agent.” The Enterprise Bank Escrow Agreement is referred to herein as the “Escrow Agreement.”

 

(b) Prior to the initial Closing Date (as hereinafter defined) of the Offering and any subsequent Closing Date, (i) each applicable Investor will execute and deliver a Purchaser Questionnaire and Subscription Agreement substantially in the relevant form included as an exhibit to the Offering Statement (each, an “Investor Subscription Agreement”) to the Company and the Company will make available to the Selling Agent and the applicable Escrow Agent copies of each such Investor Subscription Agreement; (ii) each Investor will transfer to an Escrow Account funds in an amount equal to the Purchase Price per Unit as shown on the cover page of the Final Offering Circular (as hereinafter defined) multiplied by the number of Units subscribed by such Investor; (iii) subscription funds received from any Investor will be promptly transmitted to an Escrow Account in compliance with Rule 15c2-4 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and (iv) each Escrow Agent will notify the Company and the Selling Agent in writing as to the balance of the collected funds in the Escrow Account.

 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing Section 2(b), Investors that maintain an account with a participating dealer, may participate in the Offering without depositing funds with the Escrow Agent, provided such Investors maintain sufficient funds in their account with such participating dealers. At Closing, any amounts subscribed for and Units delivered will be settled broker-to-broker and credited to the Company’s account.

 

(d) If an Escrow Agent shall have received written notice from the Company and the Selling Agent on or before 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on or before August 31, 2026, or at such other time(s) on such other date(s) thereafter, as may be agreed upon by the Company and the Selling Agent (each such date, a “Closing Date”), such Escrow Agent will release the balance of the Escrow Account for collection by the Company and the Selling Agent as provided in the Escrow Agreement and the Company shall deliver the Units purchased on such Closing Date to the Investors, which delivery may be made through the facilities of the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) or via book entry with the Company’s securities registrar and transfer agent, Equity Stock Transfer (the “Transfer Agent”). The initial closing (the “Closing”) and any subsequent closing (each, a “Subsequent Closing”) shall take place at the office of the Selling Agent or such other location as the Selling Agent and the Company shall mutually agree. All actions taken at the Closing shall be deemed to have occurred simultaneously on the date of the Closing and all actions taken at any Subsequent Closing shall be deemed to have occurred simultaneously on the date of any such Subsequent Closing.

 

(e) If the Company, in its sole discretion, determines that the Offering will not proceed, then the Escrow Agent will promptly return the funds to the investors without interest.

(xiii) FINRA shall not have raised any objection with respect to the fairness or reasonableness of the plan of distribution, or other arrangements of the transactions, contemplated hereby.

8. Indemnification.

 

(i) The Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Selling Agent and each of the Dealers, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents and each person, if any, who controls any Selling Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each a “Selling Agent Indemnified Party”), from and against any and all losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages, severally and not jointly (including any and all investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted (whether or not such Selling Agent Indemnified Party is a party thereto)), to which any of them, may become subject under the Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, liabilities, expenses or damages arise out of or are based on (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement made by the Company in Section 3 of this Agreement, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in (1) any Preliminary Offering Circular, the Offering Statement or the Final Offering Circular or any amendment or supplement thereto, (2) the Pricing Disclosure Materials, or (3) any application or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, executed by the Company based upon written information furnished by or on behalf of the Company filed in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Units under the securities or Blue Sky laws thereof or filed with the Commission or any securities association or securities exchange (each, an “Application”), or (iii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any Preliminary Offering Circular, the Offering Statement, the Final Offering Circular or the Pricing Disclosure Materials, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or in any Permitted Issuer Information or any Application 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 will not be liable to the extent that such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage arises from the sale of the Units in the Offering to any person or entity and is based solely on an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance on and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Selling Agent Indemnified Party through the Selling Agent expressly for inclusion in the Offering Statement, any Preliminary Offering Circular or the Final Offering Circular, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Application, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Selling Agent Indemnified Party consists of the information described as such in subsection (ii) below. The indemnification obligations under this Section 8(i) are not exclusive and will be in addition to any liability which the Company might otherwise have and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available at law or in equity to each Selling Agent Indemnified Party.

 

 

 

 

(ii) The Selling Agent will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) (i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement made by the Selling Agent in Section 5 of this Agreement, (ii) arise out of or are based upon any failure or alleged failure of the Selling Agent to pay any compensation to a Dealer or Dealers, (iii) arise out of or are based solely upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Offering Statement, any Preliminary Offering Circular or the Final Offering Circular, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or (iv) arise out of or are based solely upon the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in the Offering Statement, any Preliminary Offering Circular or the Final Offering Circular or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Offering Statement, any Preliminary Offering Circular or the Final Offering Circular, or any amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Selling Agent Indemnified Party through the Selling Agent expressly for use therein; and will reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred. The Company acknowledges that, for all purposes under this Agreement, the statements set forth in the paragraphs under the caption “Plan of Distribution” in any Preliminary Offering Circular and the Final Offering Circular constitute the only information relating to the Selling Agent furnished in writing to the Company by the Selling Agent expressly for inclusion in the Offering Statement, any Preliminary Offering Circular or the Final Offering Circular. In no event shall the Selling Agent indemnify the Company for any amounts in excess of the fees actually received by the Selling Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

 

(iii) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (i) or (ii) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under such subsection. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

 

 

 

 

(iv) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (i) or (ii) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Selling Agent on the other from the offering of the Units. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the Indemnified Party failed to give the notice required under subsection (iii) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Selling Agent on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Selling Agent on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the Offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bears to the Cash Fee received by the Selling Agent. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Selling Agent on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Selling Agent agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (iv) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (iv). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (iv) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (iv), the Selling Agent will not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the Fee received by the Selling Agent pursuant to this Agreement. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the applicable indemnifying party shall not be obligated to indemnify any indemnified party to the extent that any liabilities, claims, causes of action, losses, damages, penalties, fines, or expenses, damages were a result of fraud, willful misconduct, or bad faith of the indemnified party (in each case as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment).

 

 

 

 

9. Termination.

 

(i) The obligations of the Selling Agent under this Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the initial Closing Date, by notice to the Company from the Selling Agent, without liability on the part of the Selling Agent to the Company if, prior to delivery and payment for the Units, in the sole judgment of the Selling Agent: (a) there has occurred any material adverse change in the securities markets or any event, act or occurrence that has materially disrupted, or in the opinion of the Selling Agent, will in the future materially disrupt, the securities markets or there shall be such a material adverse change in general financial, political or economic conditions or the effect of international conditions on the financial markets in the United States is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Selling Agent, inadvisable or impracticable to market the Units or enforce contracts for the sale of the Units; (b) there has occurred any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, including without limitation as a result of terrorist activities, such as to make it, in the judgment of the Selling Agent, inadvisable or impracticable to market the Units or enforce contracts for the sale of the Units; (c) trading in the Units or any securities of the Company has been suspended or materially limited; (d) trading generally on The Nasdaq Capital Market has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum ranges for prices for securities shall have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities have been required, by any of said exchanges or by such system or by order of the Commission, FINRA, or any other governmental or regulatory authority; (e) a banking moratorium has been declared by any state or Federal authority; (f) in the judgment of the Selling Agent, there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Final Offering Circular, any material adverse change in the assets, properties, condition, financial or otherwise, or in the results of operations, business affairs or business prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries considered as a whole, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business or (g) there has occurred a material breach of this Agreement by the Company, which breach cannot be cured or is not cured within ten (10) days following written notice to the Company from Selling Agent of such breach.

PUBLIC OFFERING SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

 

Units of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock and Warrants to Purchase Common Stock of

Worksport Ltd.

 

This Subscription Agreement relates to my/our agreement to purchase units, with each unit consisting of one (1) share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Series C Preferred Stock”) and a warrant to purchase one (1) share of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Company, (the “Units”), to be issued by Worksport Ltd., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), for a purchase price of $3.25 per Unit, for a total purchase price of $__________ USD (“Subscription Price”), subject to the terms, conditions, acknowledgments, representations and warranties stated herein and in the final offering circular for the sale of the Units, dated [*], 2025, contained in the offering statement on Form 1-A declared “qualified” by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on [*], 2025 (the “Offering Circular”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Offering Circular.

 

I understand that if I wish to purchase Units, I must complete this Subscription Agreement and submit the applicable Subscription Price as set forth herein. Subscription funds will be held by and at an FDIC insured bank in compliance with SEC Rule 15c2-4, with funds released to the Company at closing, as described in the Offering Circular through a clearing firm or an escrow account. I may pay the Subscription Price either though my brokerage account held with the clearing firm or by forwarding funds directly to the escrow account. The escrow account will be maintained by Enterprise Bank & Trust as escrow agent. In the event that the offering is terminated prior to the initial closing, the Units will not be sold to investors pursuant to this offering and all funds will be returned to investors from escrow without interest or deduction. Similarly, if the offering is terminated after one or more closings, additional Units will not be sold and any funds then held in escrow will be returned to investors from the escrow account. If any portion of the Units intended to be purchased by me is not sold in the offering, any funds paid by me for such portion of the Units will be returned to me promptly, without interest or deduction.

 

In order to induce the Company to accept this Subscription Agreement for the Units and as further consideration for such acceptance, I hereby make, adopt, confirm and agree to all of the following covenants, acknowledgments, representations and warranties with the full knowledge that the Company and its affiliates will expressly rely thereon in making a decision to accept or reject this Subscription Agreement:

3. Investor Eligibility Certifications

 

I understand that to purchase Units, I must either be an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or, unless the securities issued in the offering initially trade on a national securities exchange, I must limit my investment in the Units to a maximum of: (i) 10% of my net worth or annual income, whichever is greater, if I am a natural person; or (ii) 10% of my revenues or net assets, whichever is greater, for my most recently completed fiscal year, if I am a non-natural person. I understand that if I am a natural person I should determine my net worth for purposes of these representations by calculating the difference between my total assets and total liabilities. I understand this calculation must exclude the value of my primary residence and may exclude any indebtedness secured by my primary residence (up to an amount equal to the value of my primary residence). In the case of fiduciary accounts, net worth and/or income suitability requirements may be satisfied by the beneficiary of the account or by the fiduciary, if the fiduciary directly or indirectly provides funds for the purchase of the Units.

 

I hereby represent and warrant that I meet the qualifications to purchase Units because:

 

☐ The aggregate purchase price for the Units I am purchasing in the offering does not exceed 10% of my net worth or annual income, whichever is greater.

 

☐ I am an accredited investor.

 

4. I understand that the Company reserves the right to, in its sole discretion, accept or reject this Subscription, in whole or in part, for any reason whatsoever, and to the extent not accepted, unused funds maintained in my account or transmitted herewith shall either, as the case may be, not be debited from my account or be returned to the undersigned in full, with any interest accrued thereon or deduction.

 

5. I have received the Offering Circular.

 

6. I accept the terms of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, and Certificate of Designations for the Series C Preferred Stock of the Company.

 

7. I am purchasing the Units for my own account.

 

8. I hereby represent and warrant that I am not on, and am not acting as an agent, representative, intermediary or nominee for any person identified on, the list of blocked persons maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, U.S. Department of Treasury. In addition, I have complied with all applicable U.S. laws, regulations, directives, and executive orders relating to anti-money laundering, including but not limited to the following laws: (1) the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, Public Law 107-56; and (2) Executive Order 13224 (Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism) of September 23, 2001. By making the foregoing representations you have not waived any right of action you may have under federal or state securities law. Any such waiver would be unenforceable. The Company will assert your representations as a defense in any subsequent litigation where such assertion would be relevant. This Subscription Agreement and all rights hereunder shall be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws

BY AGREEING TO THIS WAIVER, THE SUBSCRIBER IS NOT DEEMED TO WAIVE THE COMPANY’S COMPLIANCE WITH THE FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS AND THE RULES AND REGULATIONS PROMULGATED THEREUNDER.

 

12. Choice of Law and Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Nevada as applied to contracts entered into and to be performed entirely within the State of Nevada.

WORKSPORT LTD.

 

WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK

 

Warrant No.: [*] Issuance Date: [*], 2025

 

Worksport Ltd., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), hereby certifies that, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, ____________________, the registered holder hereof or its permitted assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled, subject to the terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at the Exercise Price (as defined below) then in effect, upon surrender of this Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (including any Warrants to Purchase Common Stock issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, the “Warrant”), at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, but not after 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration Date (the “Expiration Time”), up to [*] fully paid non-assessable shares of Common Stock (as defined below) (the “Warrant Shares”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms in this Warrant shall have the meanings set forth in Section 15.

 

1. EXERCISE OF WARRANT.

 

(a) Mechanics of Exercise. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder on any day on or after the Issuance Date until the Expiration Time, in whole or in part, by (i) delivery of a written notice, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), of the Holder’s election to exercise this Warrant and (ii) (A) payment to the Warrant Agent of an amount equal to the applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”) by certified or official bank check, or by wire transfer of immediately available funds or (B) provided the conditions for cashless exercise set forth in Section 1(d) are satisfied, by notifying the Warrant Agent that this Warrant is being exercised pursuant to a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 1(d)). The Holder shall be required to deliver the original Warrant Certificate, if applicable, in order to effect an exercise hereunder. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice with respect to less than all of the Warrant Shares shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares. On or before the first (1st) Business Day following the date on which the Warrant Agent has received each of the Exercise Notice and the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) (collectively, the “Exercise Delivery Documents”), the Warrant Agent shall transmit by electronic mail an acknowledgment of receipt of the Exercise Delivery Documents to the Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). On or before the third (3rd) Business Day following the date on which the Warrant Agent has received each of the Exercise Notice and the Aggregate Exercise Price (or notice of a Cashless Exercise) (collectively, the “Exercise Delivery Documents”) (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Warrant Agent shall cause the Warrant Shares to be issued in the name of and deliver to the Holder (i) written confirmation that the Warrant Shares have been issued in the name of the Holder, and (ii) at the election of the Company, a new warrant of like tenor to purchase all of the Warrant Shares that may be purchased pursuant to the portion, if any, of this Warrant not exercised by the Holder. If the Company is then a participant in the Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian (“DWAC”) system of The Depository Trust Company or its nominee (the “DTC”) and either (A) there is an effective registration statement, or qualified offering statement, permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by Holder or (B) the Warrant is being exercised via Cashless Exercise, then the certificates (or book-entries) for Warrant Shares may be transmitted by the transfer agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s broker with the DTC through its DWAC system. No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number.

 

 

 

 

(b) Exercise Price. For purposes of this Warrant, “Exercise Price” means $4.50 per one share of Common Stock subject to adjustment as provided herein.

 

(c) Legend. The Holder acknowledges that each certificate or book-entry evidencing the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant may have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws. Each such certificate or book-entry may be stamped or imprinted or accompanied, as and if required, with a legend substantially in the following form:

 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN APPLICABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE PURCHASER TO SUCH EFFECT, WHICH OPINION SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY.”

 

(d) Cashless Exercise. If at the time of exercise of this Warrant there is no qualified offering statement (or effective registration statement) relating to the Warrant Shares, the offering circular (or prospectus, as applicable) contained therein is not available for the issuance of the Warrant Shares or the Company is not current in its public company reporting obligations, the Holder may elect to receive the number of Warrant Shares equal to the value of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being exercised), by surrender of this Warrant to the Warrant Agent, together with the exercise form attached hereto, in which event the Warrant Agent will issue to the Holder Warrant Shares in accordance with the following formula: 

 

X = Y(A-B)  
A  

 

Where,      
  X = The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder;
  Y = The number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is being exercised;
  A = The fair market value of one share of Common Stock; and
  B = The exercise price of the Warrant being exercised.

 

For purposes of this Section 1(d), the fair market value means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the shares of Common Stock are then listed or quoted on a national securities exchange, the OTCQB or the OTCQX, the value shall be deemed to be (i) the closing price of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the applicable exercise notice if such exercise notice is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a day that is not a trading day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof on a trading day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b)(68) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such trading day, or (ii) the closing price of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable exercise notice if the date of such exercise notice is a trading day and such exercise notice is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 1(a) hereof during or after the close of “regular trading hours” on such trading day; (b) if the shares of Common Stock are not then listed or quoted for trading on a national securities exchange, the OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the shares of Common Stock are then reported on the “Pink Tier” of OTC Markets Group, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices) (the “OTC Markets Group”), the value shall be deemed to be the highest intra-day or closing price on any trading day on the Pink Tier on which the shares of Common Stock are then quoted as reported by OTC Markets Group (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)) during the five trading days preceding the exercise; or (c) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in the exercise of its good faith judgment.

 

2

 

 

For purposes of Rule 144(d) promulgated under the Securities Act, as in effect on the date hereof, assuming the Holder is not an affiliate of the Company, it is intended that the Warrant Shares issued in a Cashless Exercise shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the Issuance Date.

 

(e) Beneficial Ownership. The Company shall not effect the exercise of this Warrant, and the Holder shall not have the right to exercise this Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such Person (together with such Person’s affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise (including in connection with any Fundamental Transaction (as defined below)). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Person and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by such Person and its affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company beneficially owned by such Person and its affiliates (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. For purposes of this Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (1) the Company’s most recent Annual Report Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission as the case may be, (2) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (3) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 1(e) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder) and of which a portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of a Holder, and the submission of an Exercise Notice shall be deemed to be each Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to such aggregate percentage limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. For any reason at any time, upon the written request of the Holder, the Company shall within three (3) Business Days confirm to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder and its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company, and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 1(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation.

 

2. ADJUSTMENT OF EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF WARRANT SHARES. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:

 

(a) If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date effects one or more forward stock splits, stock dividends or other increases of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding without receiving compensation therefor in money, services or property, the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Warrants shall be proportionately increased, and the exercise price payable per share of Common Stock subject to the Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. If the Company at any time on or after the Issuance Date effects one or more reverse stock splits or combines or consolidates, by reclassification or otherwise, the Common Stock outstanding into a lesser number of shares, the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Warrants shall be proportionately decreased; however, the exercise price payable per share of Common Stock subject to the Warrant shall remain unchanged. We may, in our sole discretion, lower the exercise price per share of Common Stock subject to the warrant at any time prior to the Expiration Date for a period of not less than 30 days.

 

3

 

 

(b) In the event of a capital reorganization or reclassification of the Common Stock, the Warrants will be adjusted so that thereafter each Holder will be entitled to receive upon exercise the same number and kind of securities that such Holder would have received if the Warrant had been exercised before the capital reorganization or reclassification of our Common Stock.

 

(c) If the Company merges or consolidates with another corporation, or if the Company sells its assets as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another corporation, the Company will make provisions so that Holders will be entitled to receive upon exercise of a Warrant the kind and number of securities, cash or other property that would have been received as a result of the transaction by a person who was our stockholder immediately before the transaction and who owned the same number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant was exercisable immediately before the transaction. No adjustment to the Warrants will be made, however, if a merger or consolidation does not result in any reclassification or change in the Company’s outstanding Common Stock.

 

3. RIGHTS UPON DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS. If the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to all holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case:

 

(a) any Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution shall be reduced, effective as of the close of business on such record date, to a price determined by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction of which (i) the numerator shall be the Closing Bid Price of the shares of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding such record date minus the value of the Distribution (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors) applicable to one share of Common Stock, and (ii) the denominator shall be the Closing Bid Price of the shares of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding such record date; and

 

(b) the number of Warrant Shares shall be increased to a number of shares equal to the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable immediately prior to the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive the Distribution multiplied by the reciprocal of the fraction set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph (a); provided that in the event that the Distribution is of shares of Common Stock (or common stock) (“Other Shares of Common Stock”) of a company whose shares of common stock are traded on a national securities exchange or a national automated quotation system, then the Holder may elect to receive a warrant to purchase Other Shares of Common Stock in lieu of an increase in the number of Warrant Shares, the terms of which shall be identical to those of this Warrant, except that such warrant shall be exercisable into the number of shares of Other Shares of Common Stock that would have been payable to the Holder pursuant to the Distribution had the Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to such record date and with an aggregate exercise price equal to the product of the amount by which the exercise price of this Warrant was decreased with respect to the Distribution pursuant to the terms of the immediately preceding paragraph (a) and the number of Warrant Shares calculated in accordance with the first part of this paragraph (b).

 

4. PURCHASE RIGHTS; FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTIONS.

 

(a) Purchase Rights. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 2 above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire upon exercise of this Warrant, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights per share of Common Stock which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.

 

4

 

 

(b) Fundamental Transactions. In the event of a Fundamental Transaction, if the fair market value of one Warrant Share as determined in accordance with Section 1(d) above would be greater than the Exercise Price in effect as of immediately prior to the closing of such Fundamental Transaction, and the Holder has not previously exercised this Warrant in full, then, in lieu of Holder’s exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant, this Warrant shall, as of immediately prior to such closing (but subject to the occurrence thereof) automatically cease to represent the right to purchase Warrant Shares and shall, from and after such closing, represent solely the right to receive the aggregate consideration that would have been payable in such Fundamental Transaction on and in respect of all Warrant Shares for which this Warrant was exercisable as of immediately prior to the closing thereof, net of the Aggregate Exercise Price therefor, as if such Warrant Shares had been issued and outstanding to the Holder as of immediately prior to such closing, as and when such consideration is paid to the holders of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock. In the event of a Fundamental Transaction in which the fair market value of one Warrant Share as determined in accordance with Section 1(d) above would be equal to or less than the Exercise Price in effect as of immediately prior to the closing of such Fundamental Transaction, then this Warrant will automatically and without further action of any party terminate as of immediately prior to such closing.

 

5. NONCIRCUMVENTION. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its amended and restated articles of incorporation, as amended, and bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Warrant and take all commercially reasonable action as may be required to protect the rights of the Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, (ii) shall take all such actions as may be commercially reasonable or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (iii) shall, so long as this Warrant is outstanding, take all commercially reasonable action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant, 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercise).

 

6. WARRANT HOLDER NOT DEEMED A STOCKHOLDER. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as a holder of this Warrant, shall not be entitled to vote or receive dividends or be deemed the holder of share capital of the Company for any purpose, nor shall anything contained in this Warrant be construed to confer upon the Holder, solely in such Person’s capacity as the Holder of this Warrant, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote, give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether any reorganization, issue of stock, reclassification of stock, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise), receive notice of meetings, receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, prior to the issuance to the Holder of the Warrant Shares which such Person is then entitled to receive upon the due exercise of this Warrant. In addition, nothing contained in this Warrant shall be construed as imposing any liabilities on the Holder to purchase any securities (upon exercise of this Warrant or otherwise) or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liabilities are asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

 

7. REISSUANCE OF WARRANTS.

 

(a) Transfer of Warrant. If this Warrant is to be transferred, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Warrant Agent together with a written assignment of this Warrant in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney, whereupon the Warrant Agent will forthwith, subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws, issue and deliver upon the order of the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)), registered as the Holder may request, representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares being transferred by the Holder and, if less than the total number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant is being transferred, a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) to the Holder representing the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares not being transferred.

 

5

 

 

(b) Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Warrant. Upon receipt by the Warrant Agent of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the Holder to the Warrant Agent in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Warrant Agent shall execute and deliver to the Holder a new Warrant (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant.

 

(c) Exchangeable for Multiple Warrants. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder to the Warrant Agent, for a new Warrant or Warrants (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant, and each such new Warrant will represent the right to purchase such portion of such Warrant Shares as is designated by the Holder at the time of such surrender; provided, however, that no Warrants for fractional shares of Common Stock shall be given.

 

(d) Issuance of New Warrants. Whenever the Warrant Agent is required to issue a new Warrant pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, such new Warrant (i) shall be of like tenor with this Warrant, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant, the right to purchase the Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant (or in the case of a new Warrant being issued pursuant to Section 7(a) or Section 7(c), the Warrant Shares designated by the Holder which, when added to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the other new Warrants issued in connection with such issuance, does not exceed the number of Warrant Shares then underlying this Warrant), (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Warrant, which is the same as the Issuance Date, and (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Warrant.

 

(e) Warrant Register. The Warrant Agent shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Warrant Agent for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Warrant Agent may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

 

8. NOTICES. The Company shall provide the Holder with prompt written notice of all actions taken pursuant to this Warrant, including in reasonable detail a description of such action and the reason therefor.
