Introductory Note

 

As previously described in a current report on Form 8-K filed on July 25, 2023 (the “July 2023 8-K”), on July 24, 2023, Inpixon, a Nevada corporation (“Inpixon,” or the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Inpixon, Superfly Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Inpixon (“Merger Sub”), and XTI Aircraft Company, a Delaware corporation (“XTI”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on March 12, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), Merger Sub merged with and into XTI (the “Merger”), with XTI surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Inpixon. Following the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) on the Closing Date, Inpixon amended its articles of incorporation to change its name to “XTI Aerospace, Inc.” (also referred to as “XTIA”) and the combined company opened for trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on March 13, 2024 under the new ticker symbol “XTIA”. As of the Effective Time, Nadir Ali resigned as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Scott Pomeroy was appointed as the new Chief Executive Officer of XTIA, as described in Item 5.02 below.

 

Shortly prior to the Effective Time, Inpixon effected a 1-for-100 reverse split of its outstanding shares of common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”).

 

At the Effective Time, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the shares of XTI common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time became the right to receive 7,843,668 shares of XTIA common stock, and the options and warrants to purchase shares of XTI common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time were assumed by the Company and became exercisable for approximately 1,068,959 and 382,610 shares of XTIA common stock, respectively, based on an exchange ratio of 0.0892598 shares of XTIA common stock for each share of XTI common stock in accordance with the Merger Agreement. Prior to the Effective Time, XTI received the consents of certain of its convertible note holders to convert the outstanding balance under their convertible notes, equal to an aggregate outstanding amount of $7,535,701, into shares of XTI common stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, enabling them to participate in the Merger on the same basis as the other shares of XTI common stock. XTI convertible notes in the aggregate remaining principal and interest amount of $51,658, were assumed by the Company at the Effective Time and became convertible into approximately 4,611 shares of XTIA common stock.

 

Immediately prior to the Effective Time, all but $175,000 of the total principal and accrued interest balance of the convertible note issued by XTI to Dave Brody on October 1, 2023, as amended on March 12, 2024, was converted into shares of XTI common stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, enabling him to participate in the Merger on the same basis as the other shares of XTI common stock, as disclosed in Item 5.02 of this Form 8-K. The remaining $175,000 became payable in cash by XTI upon consummation of the Merger.

 

Immediately following the Effective Time, the XTIA had 9,786,801 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, subject to adjustment in connection with rounding associated with the Reverse Stock Split.

 

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

The information contained in the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference herein to the extent required to be disclosed under this Item 1.01.

 

Second Amendment to Merger Agreement

 

On March 12, 2024, the Company, Merger Sub and XTI entered into a Second Amendment to Merger Agreement (the “Merger Agreement Amendment”). The Merger Agreement Amendment amended the original Merger Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment to Merger Agreement dated December 30, 2023, to provide, among other things, (i) adjustments for the issuance of shares of the Company’s newly designated non-convertible Series 9 preferred stock (“Series 9 Preferred Stock”) to the Note Holder (as defined below) in the exchange ratio calculation and (ii) the extension of the deadline to file a resale registration statement covering the shares issued in the Merger that were not registered on the Company’s registration statement on Form S-4 filed in connection with the Merger to ten business days after the Company files its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The Company agreed that the Purchaser will be deemed a “Required Holder” as defined in the Certificate of Designation (as defined under Item 5.03 below) as long as the Purchaser holds any shares of Series 9 Preferred Stock.

 

The Securities Purchase Agreement sets forth certain restrictions on the Company’s use of the proceeds from the sale of the Series 9 Preferred Stock pursuant thereto, including that the proceeds must be used in connection with the redemption of the Series 9 Preferred Stock pursuant to the Certificate of Designation (as described under Item 5.03 below) or working capital purposes, and may not, without the consent of the required holders of Series 9 Preferred Stock, be used for, among other things, (i) the redemption of any XTIA common stock or common stock equivalents, (ii) the settlement of any outstanding litigation, or (d) for the repayment of debt for borrowed money to any officer or director, or Merger-transaction related bonuses to any employee or vendor except for such non-merger transaction related bonuses as may be payable to participants pursuant to the Company’s existing employee bonus plan.

 

The foregoing description of the Securities Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Certificate of Designation (as defined under Item 5.03 below), which are filed as Exhibits 10.3 and 3.1, respectively, to this current report on Form 8-K and are incorporated by reference herein.

During the Ali Consulting Period, the Company will pay him a monthly fee of $20,000. If the Company terminates the Ali Consulting Agreement during the first six months of the Ali Consulting Period without Company Good Reason (as defined in the Ali Consulting Agreement), the Company will be required to pay all consulting fees that would be due for such six-month period. If Mr. Ali terminates the Ali Consulting Agreement during the Ali Consulting Period for Consultant Good Reason (as defined in the Ali Consulting Agreement), the Company will be required to pay all consulting fees that would be due for the remainder of the Ali Consulting Period, including the Equity Payment described below.

Each Equity Payment may be made, in Company’s discretion, in (i) cash, (ii) fully vested shares of common stock under the Company’s equity incentive plan and registered on a registration statement on Form S-8 or another appropriate form (“Registered Shares”), or a combination of cash and Registered Shares. Mr. Ali must continue to provide consulting services to the Company on the date of payment of an Equity Payment to receive the Equity Payment, unless the Company terminates the Ali Consulting Agreement without Company Good Reason or Mr. Ali terminates the Ali Consulting Agreement for Consulting Good Reason, in which case the Equity Payments would become due and payable in full. To the extent all or a portion of an Equity Payment is made in shares, such shares will be valued based on the closing price per share on the date on which the Equity Payment is made.

 

Subject to compliance with Section 15(b)(13) of Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), if Mr. Ali provides services involving the identification of prospective merger or acquisition targets for the Company or its affiliates, it is intended that he be eligible for a bonus upon the successful delivery of services.

Also at the Effective Time, Messrs. Nadir Ali and Tanveer Khader and Ms. Wendy Loundermon resigned as directors of the Company.

Following the foregoing resignations, the Board appointed Messrs. Scott Pomeroy, Soumya Das and David Brody as directors to the Board. Messrs. Kareem Irfan and Leonard Oppenheim continue to serve on the Board following the Closing.

There is no arrangement or understanding between Messrs. Pomeroy, Das or Brody and any other person pursuant to which each was appointed as a director, other than pursuant to the Merger Agreement. There are no transactions in which Messrs. Pomeroy, Brody and Das and Ms. Martellaro have an interest requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K, except for (i) the transactions with Mr. Brody described in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus in the section entitled “Related Party Transactions of Directors and Executive Officers of the Combined Company” beginning on page 223 and that information is incorporation herein by reference, and (ii) such transactions as described below:

 

In connection with the Closing, Mr. Pomeroy received 4,000,000 shares of XTI common stock pursuant to the Consulting Agreement dated July 1, 2022. Upon the closing of the Merger, these XTI shares were exchanged for 357,040 shares of common stock of XTIA in accordance with the exchange ratio pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

 

In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, XTI paid Mr. Brody compensation of $60,000 and 100,000, respectively, and owed Mr. Brody accrued compensation of $320,000 and $260,000, respectively, under Mr. Brody’s consulting agreement with XTI. Pursuant to an amendment to the consulting agreement, these accrued amounts were waived by Mr. Brody and the consulting agreement terminated in connection with the closing of the Merger.

 

On March 12, 2024, XTI and Mr. Brody entered into an Amendment No. 1 (the “Brody Note Amendment”) to the Unsecured Convertible Promissory Note, dated as of October 1, 2023, issued by XTI to Mr. Brody (the “Brody Note”), pursuant to which Mr. Brody converted $922,957 principal amount of the Brody Note and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, into shares of XTI common stock at a rate of $0.3094 in principal amount per share, and XTI agreed to pay Mr. Brody the remaining $175,000 in principal amount upon the consummation of the Merger. The shares issued as consideration under the Brody Note Amendment converted into 266,273 shares of XTIA common stock in accordance with the exchange ratio pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

 

In connection with the Merger, the Company assumed a Promissory Note issued by XTI to Mr. Brody on January 5, 2023, with an outstanding principal balance of $125,000 along with an interest balance of $7,406 as of February 29, 2024, accruing interest at a rate of 5% and set to mature on March 31, 2024.

 

As disclosed under Item 1.01, the Company entered into a customary form of indemnification agreement with its existing directors and executive officers prior to the Effective Time, including Mr. Ali and Ms. Loudermon, as well as with the new directors and officers whose appointments became effective at the Effective Time, including Messrs. Pomeroy, Brody and Das and Ms. Martellaro.

 

In connection with the Closing, and as disclosed in Item 5.03 of this current report on Form 8-K, the board of directors of the Company amended the Bylaws of the Company to establish three classes of directors with staggered election terms: Mr. Scott Pomeroy and Mr. Soumya Das are the Class I directors, eligible for re-election at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2024; Mr. Kareem Irfan and Mr. Leonard Oppenheim are the Class II directors, eligible for re-election at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2025; and Mr. David Brody is the Class III director, eligible for re-election at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2026.

 

Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year

 

Certificate of Designation for Series 9 Preferred Stock

 

On March 12, 2024, the Company filed the Certificate of Designations of Preferences and Rights of Series 9 Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”), with the Secretary of State of Nevada, designating 20,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 of the Company, as Series 9 Preferred Stock. Each share of Series 9 Preferred Stock has a stated face value of $1,050.00 (“Stated Value”). The Series 9 Preferred Stock is not convertible into shares of common stock of the Company.

 

Each share of Series 9 Preferred Stock will accrue a rate of return on the Stated Value in the amount of 10% per year, compounded annually to the extent not paid, and pro rata for any fractional year periods (the “Preferred Return”). The Preferred Return will accrue on each share of Series 9 Preferred Stock from the date of issuance and shall be payable on a quarterly basis, either in cash or through the issuance of an additional number of shares of Series 9 Preferred Stock equal to (i) the Preferred Return then accrued and unpaid, divided by (ii) the Stated Value, at the Company’s discretion.

 

6


 

Commencing on the one-year anniversary of the respective issuance date of each share of Series 9 Preferred Stock, each such share of Series 9 Preferred Stock shall accrue an automatic quarterly dividend, based on three quarters of 91 days each and the last quarter of 92 days (or 93 days for leap years), which shall be calculated on the Stated Value of such share of Series 9 Preferred Stock, and which shall be payable in additional shares of Series 9 Preferred Stock, based on the Stated Value, or in cash as set forth in the Certificate of Designation (each, as applicable, the “Quarterly Dividend”). For the period beginning on the one-year anniversary of the issuance date of a share of Series 9 Preferred Stock to the two-year anniversary of the issuance date of each share of Series 9 Preferred Stock, the Quarterly Dividend shall be 2% per quarter in respect of such share, and for all periods following the two-year anniversary of the issuance date of each share of Series 9 Preferred Stock, the Quarterly Dividend shall be 3% per quarter in respect of such share.

 

If at any time while any share of Series 9 Preferred Stock is outstanding, the Company undergoes or enters into a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Certificate of Designation), the Company shall cause any successor entity in any such Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the surviving company, to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under the Certificate of Designation. Subject to the terms and conditions in the Certificate of Designation, the Company may, at any time, elect to redeem all, but not less than all, of the shares of Series 9 Preferred Stock issued and outstanding from all of the Series 9 Preferred Stock holders by paying an amount in cash equal to the Series 9 Preferred Liquidation Amount (as defined below) applicable to such shares of Series 9 Preferred Stock being redeemed. The Series 9 Preferred Liquidation Amount per share is determined as the Stated Value per share plus any accrued but unpaid Preferred Return, and any accrued and unpaid Quarterly Dividend at that time.

 

The Series 9 Preferred Stock confers no voting rights on its holders, except with respect to matters that materially and adversely affect the rights or preferences of the Series 9 Preferred Stock or such matters specified in the Certificate of Designation that require the consent of holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Series 9 Preferred Stock.

 

The Certificate of Designation contains certain obligations of the Company, such that until such time as no shares of Series 9 Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company and its subsidiaries are required to comply with certain covenants with respect to Fundamental Transactions, the Company’s indebtedness, the Company’s status as a publicly-traded company and an SEC reporting company, and other matters set forth in the Certificate of Designation, unless otherwise consented to by holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Series 9 Preferred Stock.

 

The foregoing description of the Certificate of Designation does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Designation, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

Amendments to Articles of Incorporation

 

On March 11, 2024, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its articles of incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada to effect the Reverse Stock Split, which was approved by the Company’s stockholders at the special meeting in lieu of annual meeting held on December 8, 2023, as described in the Company’s proxy statement/prospectus filed on November 14, 2023. Any fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Stock Split will be rounded up to the nearest whole share. The Company’s authorized number of shares of common stock was not reduced by the Reverse Stock Split. The Reverse Stock Split became effective shortly before the Effective Time. The exercise price per share and number of shares issuable under all of the Company’s outstanding securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock have been proportionately adjusted to account for the Reverse Stock Split.

 

On March 11, 2024, the Company also filed a Certificate of Amendment to its articles of incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada to change the name of the Company from “Inpixon” to “XTI Aerospace, Inc.”, which became effective shortly after the Effective Time.

 

As of March 13, 2024, the trading symbol for the Company’s common stock has changed to “XTIA.” The new CUSIP number for the Company’s common stock following the Reverse Stock Split, the Merger and the name change is 98423K108.

 

The foregoing description of the Certificates of Amendments does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificates of Amendment, which are filed as Exhibits 3.2 and 3.3, respectively, to this current report on Form 8-K and are incorporated by reference herein.

The Bylaws Amendment classifies the members of the Board into three classes (Class I, Class II and Class III) with staggered terms. Pursuant to the Bylaws Amendment, the current term of the Class I directors will expire at the annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company for the year 2024, the current term of the Class II directors will expire at the annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company for the year 2025, and the current term of the Class III directors will expire at the annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company for the year 2026. At each succeeding annual meeting of stockholders of the Company successors of the class of directors whose term expires at that meeting shall be elected to hold office in accordance with the Bylaws of the Company.

 

The foregoing description of the Bylaws Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Bylaws Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.4 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

Financial Advisory Fees in connection with the Merger

 

Pursuant to the terms of an amended advisory fees agreement among XTI, Inpixon and Maxim and in accordance with the Merger Agreement, the Company issued 385,359 registered XTIA shares of common stock in exchange for shares of XTI common stock issued to Maxim based on the exchange ratio under the Merger Agreement. Additionally, Maxim will receive $200,000 payable upon the closing of one or more debt or equity financings for which Maxim serves as placement agent or underwriter and in which the Company raises minimum aggregate gross proceeds of $10 million following the Effective Time.

 

Pursuant to its engagement letter with XTI, dated as of June 7, 2022, as amended (the “Chardan Engagement Letter”) and the Merger Agreement, Chardan Capital Markets (“Chardan”) received a cash payment of $200,000 and 189,037 registered XTIA shares of common stock (the “Chardan Closing Shares”) in exchange for shares of XTI common stock issued to Chardan based on the exchange ratio under the Merger Agreement. If within 120 days following the Effective Time, the Company consummates a public offering of securities in which the price per share of XTIA common stock (“Chardan Qualified Offering price”) is less than the per share price of Inpixon common stock utilized to calculate the number of Chardan Closing Shares, the Company will be required, subject to applicable securities laws, to issue additional shares of XTIA common stock to Chardan in an amount equal to (i) $1,000,000 minus the product of the number of Chardan Closing Shares and Chardan Qualified Offering Price, divided by (ii) the Chardan Qualified Offeing Price.

 

Nasdaq Hearing Update

 

On April 14, 2023, Nasdaq Listing Qualifications staff (“Staff”) issued the Company a delist letter citing its failure to comply with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement under Listing Rule 5550(a)(2 (“Bid Price Rule”). In accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company was provided 180 calendar days, or until October 11, 2023, to regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2). However, on November 9, 2023, the Company received a delisting determination letter from the staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) in accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iii) due to the Company’s securities having a closing bid price of $0.10 or less for ten consecutive trading days (the “Low Priced Stocks Rule”). Accordingly, on January 5, 2024, the Company requested a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”). That hearing was held on February 6, 2024.

 

On March 1, 2024, the Company received a written decision from the Panel granting its request for continued listing on Nasdaq, subject to the condition that, on or before May 7, 2024, the Company will have demonstrated compliance with the Bid Price Rule, by evidencing a closing bid price of $1.00 or more per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days.

 

On March 12, 2024, the Company implemented a reverse stock split immediately prior to the closing of the Merger in connection with its plan to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule and satisfy initial listing requirements as a result of the resulting change of control in accordance with Nasdaq listing rules.

SERIES 9 PREFERRED STOCK

 

of

 

Inpixon

a Nevada corporation

 

The undersigned Chief Executive Officer of Inpixon (“Corporation”), a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Nevada, does hereby certify that, pursuant to the authority contained in the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation (“Articles”) and pursuant to Section 78.1955 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”), and in accordance with the provisions of the resolution creating a series of the class of the Corporation’s authorized preferred stock designated as the Series 9 Preferred Stock as follows:

 

FIRST: The Articles, as amended, authorize the issuance by the Corporation of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value of $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value of $0.001 per share (“Preferred Stock”), and further, authorize the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Corporation, by resolution or resolutions, at any time and from time to time, to divide and establish any or all of the unissued shares of Preferred Stock not then allocated to any series into one or more series and to designate the rights, preferences and limitations of each series.

 

SECOND: By unanimous written consent of the Board dated March 11, 2024, the Board designated twenty thousand (20,000) shares of the Preferred Stock as Series 9 Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, pursuant to a resolution providing that a series of preferred stock of the Corporation be and hereby is created and that the designation and number of shares thereof and the voting and other powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other rights of the shares of such Series 9 Preferred Stock, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, are as follows:

 

SERIES 9 PREFERRED STOCK

 

Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have meanings set forth in Section 14 below.

 

Section 2. Powers and Rights of Series 9 Preferred Stock. There is hereby designated a class of Preferred Stock of the Corporation as the Series 9 Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Corporation (the “Series 9 Stock”). The number of shares, powers, terms, conditions, designations, preferences and privileges, relative, participating, optional and other special rights, and qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Series 9 Stock shall be as set forth in this Certificate of Designations of Preferences and Rights of Series 9 Stock (this “Certificate of Designations”). For purposes hereof, a holder of a share or shares of Series 9 Stock, with respect to their rights as related to the Series 9 Stock, shall be referred to as a “Series 9 Holder.”

 

Section 3. Number and Stated Value. The number of authorized shares of the Series 9 Stock is twenty thousand (20,000) shares. Each share of Series 9 Stock shall have a stated value of $1,050.00 (the “Stated Value”).

 

3


 

Section 4. Ranking. Except to the extent that the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Series 9 Stock (the “Required Holders”) expressly consent to the creation of Parity Stock (as defined below), all shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be junior in rank to all Series 9 Stock with respect to the preferences as to dividends, distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Corporation (such junior stock is referred to herein collectively as “Junior Stock”). The rights of all such shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be qualified by the rights, powers, preferences and privileges of the Series 9 Stock. Without limiting any other provision of this Certificate of Designations, without the prior express consent of the Required Holders, voting separate as a single class, the Corporation shall not hereafter authorize or issue any additional or other class or series of shares of capital stock that is (i) of senior rank to the Series 9 Stock in respect of the preferences as to dividends, distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Corporation (collectively, the “Senior Preferred Stock”), or (ii) of pari passu rank to the Series 9 Stock in respect of the preferences as to dividends, distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Corporation (collectively, the “Parity Stock”). In the event of the merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another corporation wherein the Corporation is the surviving entity, the shares of Series 9 Stock shall maintain their relative rights, powers, designations, privileges and preferences provided for herein and no such merger or consolidation shall provide for a result inconsistent therewith, subject to the other terms and conditions herein.

 

Section 5. Preferred Return.

 

(a) Each share of Series 9 Stock shall accrue a rate of return on the Stated Value at the rate of 10% per year, compounded annually to the extent not paid as set forth herein, and to be determined pro rata for any factional year periods (the “Preferred Return”). The Preferred Return shall accrue on each share of Series 9 Stock from the date of its issuance, and shall be payable or otherwise settled as set forth herein.

 

(b) The Preferred Return shall be payable on a quarterly basis, within five Business Days following the end of each calendar quarter, either in cash or via the issuance to the applicable Series 9 Holder of an additional number of shares of Series 9 Stock equal to (i) the Preferred Return then accrued and unpaid, divided by (ii) the Stated Value, with the election as to payment in cash or via the issuance of additional shares of Series 9 Stock to be determined in the discretion of the Corporation.

 

(c) In the event that the Corporation elects to pay any Preferred Return via the issuance of shares of Series 9 Stock, no fractional shares of Series 9 Stock shall be issued, and the Corporation shall pay in cash the Preferred Return that would otherwise be payable via the issuance of a fractional share of Series 9 Stock.

 

Section 6. Series 9 Dividend.

 

(a) Commencing on the one-year anniversary of the issuance date of each share of Series 9 Stock, each such share of Series 9 Stock shall accrue an automatic quarterly dividend, based on three quarters of 91 days each and the last quarter of 92 days (or 93 days for leap years), which shall be calculated on the Stated Value of such share of Series 9 Stock, and which shall be payable in additional shares of Series 9 Stock, based on the Stated Value, or in cash as set forth herein (each, as applicable, the “Quarterly Dividend”). For the period from the one-year anniversary of the issuance date of a share of Series 9 Stock to the two-year anniversary of the issuance date of a share of Series 9 Stock, the Quarterly Dividend shall be 2% per quarter, and for all periods following the two-year anniversary of the issuance date of a share of Series 9 Stock, the Quarterly Dividend shall be 3% per quarter.

 

4


 

(b) The Quarterly Dividend shall be aggregated for each Series 9 Holder, and shall be paid to each Series 9 Holder, within five Business Day following the end of each applicable Quarter, via the issuance to such Series 9 Holder of the whole number of shares of Series 9 Stock payable with respect to such Quarterly Dividend, and payment in cash for any fractional shares of Series 9 Stock that would be issuable with respect to such applicable Quarterly Dividend.

 

(c) By way of example and not limitation, in the event that a Series 9 Holder acquired 500 shares of Series 9 Stock and continued to hold all such shares of Series 9 Stock at the applicable time, the first Quarterly Dividend would be due and payable to such Series 9 Holder by the fifth Business Day following the one-year and 91 day anniversary of the date of issuance of such shares of Series 9 Stock to such Series 9 Holder, and would be an amount equal to $10,500 (500 x $1,050 x 2%), and would be paid via the issuance to such Series 9 Holder of 10 shares of Series 9 Stock (having a total value, based on the Stated Value, of $10,500).

 

Section 7. Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while any share of Series 9 Stock is outstanding, (i) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another Person other than any subsidiary or any Affiliate of the Corporation, whereby the stockholders of the Corporation immediately prior to such merger or consolidation do not own, directly or indirectly, at least 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity immediately after such merger or consolidation, (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, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Corporation or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock, (iv) 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, or (v) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), the Corporation shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Corporation is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Corporation under this Certificate of Designation pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, the Successor Entity shall file a new certificate of designation with the same terms and conditions and issue to the Series 9 Holders new preferred stock consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Series 9 Holders’ rights under this Certificate of Designation.

 

Section 8. No Conversions. The Series 9 Stock shall not be convertible into shares of Common Stock or into any other class or series of stock of the Corporation.

Section 13. Covenant Default.

 

(a) Event of Default. The Required Holders may elect to declare an “Event of Default” if any of the following conditions or events shall occur and be continuing:

 

(i) The Corporation or any Subsidiary fails to fully comply with any covenant, obligation or agreement of the Corporation or Subsidiary in this Certificate of Designations (other than payment or issuance defaults which are addressed in subparagraph (ii) below), and such failure, if known to the Required Holders and reasonably possible of cure, is not cured within five (5) Business Days following notice to cure from the Required Holders;

 

(ii) The Corporation fails to pay any amount due and payable to the Series 9 Holders pursuant to and as required by this Certificate of Designations, or fails to issue any additional shares of Series 9 Stock or Common Stock to the Series 9 Holders pursuant to and as required by this Certificate of Designations, and such failure, if known to the Series 9 Holders and reasonably possible of cure, is not cured within five (5) Business Days following notice to cure from the Required Holders; or

(c) Specific Performance. The Corporation acknowledges and agrees that any Series 9 Holder may suffer irreparable harm in the event that the Corporation or any Subsidiary fails to perform any material provision of this Certificate of Designations in accordance with its specific terms. It is accordingly agreed that any Series 9 Holder shall be entitled to one or more injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Certificate of Designations and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which any Series 9 Holder may be entitled under the Certificate of Designations, at law or in equity.

The Corporation specifically acknowledges that any Series 9 Holder’s right to obtain specific performance constitutes bargained for leverage and that the loss of such leverage would result in irreparable harm to any Series 9 Holder. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event any Series 9 Holder seeks to obtain an injunction from a court or an arbitrator against the Corporation or specific performance of any provision of this Certificate of Designations, such action shall not be a waiver of any right of any Series 9 Holder under this Certificate of Designations, at law, or in equity, including without limitation its rights to arbitrate any claim pursuant to the terms of this Certificate of Designations, nor shall any Series 9 Holder’s pursuit of an injunction prevent any Series 9 Holder, under the doctrines of claim preclusion, issues preclusion, res judicata or other similar legal doctrines, from pursuing other claims in the future in a separate arbitration

 

(d) Expenses. In the event that any Series 9 Holder incurs reasonable expenses in the enforcement of its rights hereunder, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees, then the Corporation shall immediately reimburse such Series 9 Holder the reasonable costs thereof.

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, NOR REGISTERED NOR QUALIFIED UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, DELIVERED AFTER SALE, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS QUALIFIED AND REGISTERED UNDER APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS OR UNLESS, IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION, SUCH QUALIFICATION AND REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED. ANY TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS FURTHER SUBJECT TO OTHER RESTRICTIONS, TERMS AND CONDITIONS WHICH ARE SET FORTH HEREIN.

 

(b) Uncertificated Shares Lost or Mutilated Series 9 Stock Certificate. The Series 9 Stock shall be issued to each Series 9 Holder in uncertificated (book entry) form by the stock transfer agent of the Corporation unless a Series 9 Holder requests such Series 9 Stock be issued to such Series 9 Holder in certificated form. If any certificate for the Series 9 Stock held by the Series 9 Holder thereof shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Corporation shall execute and deliver, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of a mutilated certificate, or in lieu of or in substitution for a lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, a new certificate for the share of Series 9 Stock so mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed but only upon receipt of evidence of such loss, theft or destruction of such certificate, and of the ownership hereof, and indemnity, if requested, all reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation.

 

(c) Interpretation. If the Corporation or any Series 9 Holder shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Certificate of Designations, then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorney’s fees and other reasonable costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.

 

(d) Waiver. Any waiver by the Corporation or the Series 9 Holder of a breach of any provision of this Certificate of Designations shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Certificate of Designations. The failure of the Corporation or the Series 9 Holder to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Certificate of Designations on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Certificate of Designations. Any waiver must be in writing.

 

(e) Severability. If any provision of this Certificate of Designations is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Certificate of Designations shall remain in effect, and if any provision is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other Persons and circumstances.

 

(f) Status of Redeemed Preferred Stock. If any shares of Series 9 Stock shall be converted, redeemed or reacquired by the Corporation, such shares shall resume the status of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock and shall no longer be designated as Series 9 Convertible Preferred Stock.

CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS OF PREFERENCES AND RIGHTS OF

SERIES 9 PREFERRED STOCK

 

of

 

Inpixon

a Nevada corporation

 

The undersigned Chief Executive Officer of Inpixon (“Corporation”), a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Nevada, does hereby certify that, pursuant to the authority contained in the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation (“Articles”) and pursuant to Section 78.1955 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”), and in accordance with the provisions of the resolution creating a series of the class of the Corporation’s authorized preferred stock designated as the Series 9 Preferred Stock as follows:

 

FIRST: The Articles, as amended, authorize the issuance by the Corporation of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value of $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value of $0.001 per share (“Preferred Stock”), and further, authorize the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Corporation, by resolution or resolutions, at any time and from time to time, to divide and establish any or all of the unissued shares of Preferred Stock not then allocated to any series into one or more series and to designate the rights, preferences and limitations of each series.

 

SECOND: By unanimous written consent of the Board dated March 11, 2024, the Board designated twenty thousand (20,000) shares of the Preferred Stock as Series 9 Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, pursuant to a resolution providing that a series of preferred stock of the Corporation be and hereby is created and that the designation and number of shares thereof and the voting and other powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other rights of the shares of such Series 9 Preferred Stock, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, are as follows:

 

SERIES 9 PREFERRED STOCK

 

Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have meanings set forth in Section 14 below.

 

Section 2. Powers and Rights of Series 9 Preferred Stock. There is hereby designated a class of Preferred Stock of the Corporation as the Series 9 Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Corporation (the “Series 9 Stock”). The number of shares, powers, terms, conditions, designations, preferences and privileges, relative, participating, optional and other special rights, and qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Series 9 Stock shall be as set forth in this Certificate of Designations of Preferences and Rights of Series 9 Stock (this “Certificate of Designations”). For purposes hereof, a holder of a share or shares of Series 9 Stock, with respect to their rights as related to the Series 9 Stock, shall be referred to as a “Series 9 Holder.”

 

Section 3. Number and Stated Value. The number of authorized shares of the Series 9 Stock is twenty thousand (20,000) shares. Each share of Series 9 Stock shall have a stated value of $1,050.00 (the “Stated Value”).

 

Section 4. Ranking. Except to the extent that the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Series 9 Stock (the “Required Holders”) expressly consent to the creation of Parity Stock (as defined below), all shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be junior in rank to all Series 9 Stock with respect to the preferences as to dividends, distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Corporation (such junior stock is referred to herein collectively as “Junior Stock”). The rights of all such shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be qualified by the rights, powers, preferences and privileges of the Series 9 Stock. Without limiting any other provision of this Certificate of Designations, without the prior express consent of the Required Holders, voting separate as a single class, the Corporation shall not hereafter authorize or issue any additional or other class or series of shares of capital stock that is (i) of senior rank to the Series 9 Stock in respect of the preferences as to dividends, distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Corporation (collectively, the “Senior Preferred Stock”), or (ii) of pari passu rank to the Series 9 Stock in respect of the preferences as to dividends, distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Corporation (collectively, the “Parity Stock”). In the event of the merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another corporation wherein the Corporation is the surviving entity, the shares of Series 9 Stock shall maintain their relative rights, powers, designations, privileges and preferences provided for herein and no such merger or consolidation shall provide for a result inconsistent therewith, subject to the other terms and conditions herein.

 

14


 

Section 5. Preferred Return.

 

(a) Each share of Series 9 Stock shall accrue a rate of return on the Stated Value at the rate of 10% per year, compounded annually to the extent not paid as set forth herein, and to be determined pro rata for any factional year periods (the “Preferred Return”). The Preferred Return shall accrue on each share of Series 9 Stock from the date of its issuance, and shall be payable or otherwise settled as set forth herein.

 

(b) The Preferred Return shall be payable on a quarterly basis, within five Business Days following the end of each calendar quarter, either in cash or via the issuance to the applicable Series 9 Holder of an additional number of shares of Series 9 Stock equal to (i) the Preferred Return then accrued and unpaid, divided by (ii) the Stated Value, with the election as to payment in cash or via the issuance of additional shares of Series 9 Stock to be determined in the discretion of the Corporation.

 

(c) In the event that the Corporation elects to pay any Preferred Return via the issuance of shares of Series 9 Stock, no fractional shares of Series 9 Stock shall be issued, and the Corporation shall pay in cash the Preferred Return that would otherwise be payable via the issuance of a fractional share of Series 9 Stock.

 

Section 6. Series 9 Dividend.

 

(a) Commencing on the one-year anniversary of the issuance date of each share of Series 9 Stock, each such share of Series 9 Stock shall accrue an automatic quarterly dividend, based on three quarters of 91 days each and the last quarter of 92 days (or 93 days for leap years), which shall be calculated on the Stated Value of such share of Series 9 Stock, and which shall be payable in additional shares of Series 9 Stock, based on the Stated Value, or in cash as set forth herein (each, as applicable, the “Quarterly Dividend”). For the period from the one-year anniversary of the issuance date of a share of Series 9 Stock to the two-year anniversary of the issuance date of a share of Series 9 Stock, the Quarterly Dividend shall be 2% per quarter, and for all periods following the two-year anniversary of the issuance date of a share of Series 9 Stock, the Quarterly Dividend shall be 3% per quarter.

 

(b) The Quarterly Dividend shall be aggregated for each Series 9 Holder, and shall be paid to each Series 9 Holder, within five Business Day following the end of each applicable Quarter, via the issuance to such Series 9 Holder of the whole number of shares of Series 9 Stock payable with respect to such Quarterly Dividend, and payment in cash for any fractional shares of Series 9 Stock that would be issuable with respect to such applicable Quarterly Dividend.

 

(c) By way of example and not limitation, in the event that a Series 9 Holder acquired 500 shares of Series 9 Stock and continued to hold all such shares of Series 9 Stock at the applicable time, the first Quarterly Dividend would be due and payable to such Series 9 Holder by the fifth Business Day following the one-year and 91 day anniversary of the date of issuance of such shares of Series 9 Stock to such Series 9 Holder, and would be an amount equal to $10,500 (500 x $1,050 x 2%), and would be paid via the issuance to such Series 9 Holder of 10 shares of Series 9 Stock (having a total value, based on the Stated Value, of $10,500).

 

15


 

Section 7. Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while any share of Series 9 Stock is outstanding, (i) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another Person other than any subsidiary or any Affiliate of the Corporation, whereby the stockholders of the Corporation immediately prior to such merger or consolidation do not own, directly or indirectly, at least 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity immediately after such merger or consolidation, (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, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Corporation or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock, (iv) 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, or (v) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), the Corporation shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Corporation is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Corporation under this Certificate of Designation pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, the Successor Entity shall file a new certificate of designation with the same terms and conditions and issue to the Series 9 Holders new preferred stock consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Series 9 Holders’ rights under this Certificate of Designation.

 

Section 8. No Conversions. The Series 9 Stock shall not be convertible into shares of Common Stock or into any other class or series of stock of the Corporation.

 

Section 9. Corporation Optional Redemption.

 

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions herein, at any time the Corporation may elect, in the sole discretion of the Board, to redeem all or any portion of the Series 9 Stock then issued and outstanding from all of the Series 9 Holders (a “Corporation Optional Redemption”) by paying to the applicable Series 9 Holders an amount in cash equal to the Series 9 Preferred Liquidation Amount then applicable to such shares of Series 9 Stock being redeemed in the Corporation Optional Conversion (the “Redemption Price”).

 

(b) The Corporation shall provide written notice of any Corporation Optional Redemption to the Series 9 Holder(s) within 5 Business Days following the determination of the Board to consummate the applicable Corporation Optional Redemption, and thereafter such Corporation Optional Redemption shall be completed within five days following the delivery of such written notice, and at such time the Corporation shall deliver to the Series 9 Holder(s) the Redemption Price in valid funds. Each Series 9 Holder agrees to execute and deliver to the Corporation such instruments and documents, and to take such actions, as reasonably required to consummate the Corporation Optional Redemption.

(b) The Corporation may not, and shall not, amend or repeal this Certificate of Designations without the prior written consent of Series 9 Holders holding a majority of the Series 9 Stock then issued and outstanding, in which vote each share of Series 9 Stock then issued and outstanding shall have one vote, voting separately as a single class, in person or by proxy, either in writing without a meeting or at an annual or a special meeting of such Series 9 Holders, and any such act or transaction entered into without such vote or consent shall be null and void ab initio, and of no force or effect.

Section 12. Covenants. Until such time as no shares of Series 9 Stock remain outstanding (or such earlier time as may be set forth herein), the Corporation, and as applicable, its Subsidiaries, will at all times comply with the following covenants, unless otherwise consented to in writing by the Required Holders, which consent may be granted or withheld in the Required Holders’ sole and absolute discretion:

Section 13. Covenant Default.

 

(a) Event of Default. The Required Holders may elect to declare an “Event of Default” if any of the following conditions or events shall occur and be continuing:

 

(i) The Corporation or any Subsidiary fails to fully comply with any covenant, obligation or agreement of the Corporation or Subsidiary in this Certificate of Designations (other than payment or issuance defaults which are addressed in subparagraph (ii) below), and such failure, if known to the Required Holders and reasonably possible of cure, is not cured within five (5) Business Days following notice to cure from the Required Holders;

 

(ii) The Corporation fails to pay any amount due and payable to the Series 9 Holders pursuant to and as required by this Certificate of Designations, or fails to issue any additional shares of Series 9 Stock or Common Stock to the Series 9 Holders pursuant to and as required by this Certificate of Designations, and such failure, if known to the Series 9 Holders and reasonably possible of cure, is not cured within five (5) Business Days following notice to cure from the Required Holders; or

 

(iii) The Corporation shall (1) apply for or consent to the appointment of, or the taking of possession by, a receiver, custodian, trustee or liquidator; (2) make a general assignment for the benefit of the Corporation’s creditors; or (3) commence a voluntary case under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code as now and hereafter in effect, or any successor statute.

 

(b) Consequences of Events of Default. If an Event of Default has occurred (i) the Required Holders may, by notice to the Corporation, force the Corporation to redeem all of the issued and outstanding shares of Series 9 Stock then held by the Series 9 Holders for a price equal to (1) the Stated Value (as defined in this Certificate of Designations) of all such shares of Series 9 Stock; plus (2) any accrued and unpaid Preferred Return (as defined in this Certificate of Designations) with respect to all such shares of Series 9 Stock, with such Preferred Return to be paid in cash and not via the issuance of additional shares of Series 9 Stock; plus (3) any accrued and unpaid Quarterly Dividend (as defined in this Certificate of Designations) with respect to all such shares of Series 9 Stock, provided that such Quarterly Dividend shall be paid in cash in an amount equal to the number of shares of Series 9 Stock otherwise issuable for the Quarterly Dividend multiplied by the Stated Value; plus (4) any and all other amounts due and payable to the Series 9 Holders pursuant to this Certificate of Designations; and (ii) the Series 9 Holders shall have the right to pursue any other remedies that the Required Holders may have under applicable law and/or in equity.

 

18


 

(c) Specific Performance. The Corporation acknowledges and agrees that any Series 9 Holder may suffer irreparable harm in the event that the Corporation or any Subsidiary fails to perform any material provision of this Certificate of Designations in accordance with its specific terms. It is accordingly agreed that any Series 9 Holder shall be entitled to one or more injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Certificate of Designations and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which any Series 9 Holder may be entitled under the Certificate of Designations, at law or in equity. The Corporation specifically agrees that: (a) following an Event of Default under this Certificate of Designations, any Series 9 Holder shall have the right to seek and receive injunctive relief from a court or an arbitrator prohibiting the Corporation and any of its Subsidiaries from issuing any of its Common Stock or Preferred Stock to any party unless the Series 9 Stock are being paid in full simultaneously with such issuance; and (b) following a breach of Section 12(d) above, any Series 9 Holder shall have the right to seek and receive injunctive relief from a court or arbitrator invalidating such lock-up. The Corporation specifically acknowledges that any Series 9 Holder’s right to obtain specific performance constitutes bargained for leverage and that the loss of such leverage would result in irreparable harm to any Series 9 Holder. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event any Series 9 Holder seeks to obtain an injunction from a court or an arbitrator against the Corporation or specific performance of any provision of this Certificate of Designations, such action shall not be a waiver of any right of any Series 9 Holder under this Certificate of Designations, at law, or in equity, including without limitation its rights to arbitrate any claim pursuant to the terms of this Certificate of Designations, nor shall any Series 9 Holder’s pursuit of an injunction prevent any Series 9 Holder, under the doctrines of claim preclusion, issues preclusion, res judicata or other similar legal doctrines, from pursuing other claims in the future in a separate arbitration

 

(d) Expenses. In the event that any Series 9 Holder incurs reasonable expenses in the enforcement of its rights hereunder, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees, then the Corporation shall immediately reimburse such Series 9 Holder the reasonable costs thereof.

WHEREAS, both the Company and Indemnitee recognize the increased risk of litigation and other claims being asserted against directors and officers of public companies;

 

WHEREAS, the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that enhancing the ability of the Company to retain and attract as directors and officers the most capable persons is in the best interests of the Company and that the Company therefore should seek to assure such persons that indemnification and insurance coverage is available; and

 

WHEREAS, in recognition of the need to provide Indemnitee with substantial protection against personal liability, in order to procure Indemnitee’s service and/or continued service as a director and/or officer of the Company and to enhance Indemnitee’s ability to serve the Company in an effective manner, and in order to provide such protection pursuant to express contract rights (intended to be enforceable irrespective of, among other things, any amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws (collectively, the “Constituent Documents”), any change in the composition of the Board or any change in control or business combination transaction relating to the Company), the Company wishes to provide in this Agreement for the indemnification of, and the advancement of Expenses (as defined in Section 1(e) below) to, Indemnitee as set forth in this Agreement and for the coverage or continued coverage of Indemnitee under the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and Indemnitee’s agreement to provide or to continue to provide services to the Company, the parties agree as follows:

 

1. Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

 

(a) “Beneficial Owner” has the meaning given to the term “beneficial owner” in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

 

 


 

(b) “Change in Control” means the occurrence after the date of this Agreement of any of the following events:

 

(i) any Person becomes the Beneficial Owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 50% or more of the Company's then outstanding Voting Securities, unless the change in relative Beneficial Ownership of the Company's securities by any Person results solely from a reduction in the aggregate number of outstanding shares of securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors;

 

(ii) the consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation, unless immediately following such reorganization, merger or consolidation, all of the Beneficial Owners of the Voting Securities of the Company immediately prior to such transaction beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the outstanding Voting Securities of the entity resulting from such transaction;

 

(iii) during any period of two consecutive years, not including any period prior to the execution of this Agreement, individuals who at the beginning of such period constituted the Board (including for this purpose any new directors whose election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; or

2. Services to the Company. Indemnitee agrees to serve or to continue to serve, as the case may be, as a director or officer of the Company for so long as Indemnitee is duly elected or appointed or until Indemnitee tenders Indemnitee’s resignation or is no longer serving in such capacity. This Agreement shall not be deemed an employment agreement between the Company (or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries or the Enterprise) and Indemnitee. Indemnitee specifically acknowledges that Indemnitee’s employment with or service to the Company or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries or the Enterprise is at will and Indemnitee may be discharged at any time for any reason, with or without cause, except as may be otherwise provided in any written employment agreement or other written agreement between Indemnitee and the Company (or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries or the Enterprise), any other applicable formal severance policies duly adopted by the Board or, with respect to service as a director and/or officer of the Company, by the Company’s Constituent Documents or Nevada law.

 

3. Indemnification. Subject to Section 9 and Section 10 of this Agreement, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada in effect on the date hereof, or as such laws may from time to time hereafter be amended to increase (but not decrease) the scope of such permitted indemnification, against any and all Losses if Indemnitee was or is or becomes a party to or participant in, or is threatened to be made a party to or participant in, any Claim by reason of or arising in part out of an Indemnifiable Event, including, without limitation, Claims brought by or in the right of the Company, Claims brought by third parties, and Claims in which Indemnitee is solely a witness.

 

Indemnification Agreement | 4


 

4. Advancement of Expenses. Indemnitee shall have the right to advancement by the Company, prior to the final disposition of any Claim by final adjudication to which there are no further rights of appeal, of any and all Expenses actually and reasonably paid or incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any Claim arising out of an Indemnifiable Event. Indemnitee’s right to such advancement is not subject to the satisfaction of any standard of conduct. Without limiting the generality or effect of the foregoing, within thirty (30) days after any request by Indemnitee, the Company shall, in accordance with such request, (a) pay such Expenses on behalf of Indemnitee, (b) advance to Indemnitee funds in an amount sufficient to pay such Expenses, or (c) reimburse Indemnitee for such Expenses. In connection with any request for Expense Advances, Indemnitee shall not be required to provide any documentation or information to the extent that the provision thereof would undermine or otherwise jeopardize attorney-client privilege. In connection with any request for Expense Advances, Indemnitee shall execute and deliver to the Company an undertaking (which shall be accepted without reference to Indemnitee’s ability to repay the Expense Advances), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, to repay any amounts paid, advanced, or reimbursed by the Company for such Expenses to the extent that it is ultimately determined, following the final disposition of such Claim, that Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification hereunder. Indemnitee’s obligation to reimburse the Company for Expense Advances shall be unsecured and no interest shall be charged thereon. All Expense Advances shall be paid without deduction (other than any legally mandated deductions for tax withholdings) or off set.

 

5. Indemnification for Expenses in Enforcing Rights. To the fullest extent allowable under applicable law, the Company shall also indemnify against, and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall advance to Indemnitee subject to and in accordance with Section 4, any Expenses actually and reasonably paid or incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action or proceeding by Indemnitee for (a) indemnification or reimbursement or advance payment of Expenses by the Company under any provision of this Agreement, or under any other agreement or provision of the Constituent Documents now or hereafter in effect relating to Claims relating to Indemnifiable Events, and/or (b) recovery under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification or insurance recovery, as the case may be. Indemnitee shall be required to reimburse the Company in the event that a final judicial determination is made that such action brought by Indemnitee was frivolous or not made in good faith. All such amounts shall be paid without deduction (other than any legally mandated deductions for tax withholdings) or off set.

 

6. Partial Indemnity. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for a portion of any Losses in respect of a Claim related to an Indemnifiable Event but not for the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion thereof to which Indemnitee is entitled.

 

Indemnification Agreement | 5


 

7. Notification and Defense of Claims.

 

(a) Notification of Claims. Indemnitee shall notify the Company in writing, as soon as practicable after Indemnitee has actual notice of such Claim, of any Claim which Indemnitee reasonably believes could relate to an Indemnifiable Event or for which Indemnitee reasonably believes that Indemnitee could seek Expense Advances, including a brief description (based upon information then reasonably available to Indemnitee) of the nature of, and the facts underlying, such Claim. The failure by Indemnitee to timely notify the Company hereunder shall not relieve the Company from any liability hereunder except that the Company shall not be liable to indemnify Indemnitee under this Agreement with respect to any judicial award in a Claim related to an Indemnifiable Event to the extent that the Company can prove that as the direct and proximate result of the failure on the part of Indemnitee to give such notice on a timely basis, the Company was not given a reasonable opportunity to participate at its expense in the defense of such action. If at the time of the receipt of such notice, the Company has directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in effect under which coverage for Claims related to Indemnifiable Events is potentially available, the Company shall give prompt written notice to the applicable insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable policies. The Company shall provide to Indemnitee a copy of such notice delivered to the applicable insurers, and copies of all subsequent correspondence between the Company and such insurers regarding the Claim, in each case substantially concurrently with the delivery or receipt thereof by the Company.

 

 

(b) Defense of Claims. The Company shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Claim relating to an Indemnifiable Event at its own expense and, except as otherwise provided below, to the extent the Company so wishes, it may assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee. After notice from the Company to Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of any such Claim and the identification of the counsel that the Company intends to retain to provide such defense, the Company shall not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise for any Expenses subsequently directly incurred by Indemnitee in connection with Indemnitee’s defense of such Claim other than (i) reasonable costs of investigation, (ii) reasonable costs incurred in connection with the exercise by Indemnitee of Indemnitee’s right to determine (a) whether such counsel is reasonable satisfactory to Indemnitee, (b) whether any conflicts of interest may exist between Indemnitee and the Company in the defense of the Claim and/or (c) whether such counsel is adequately and effectively providing the defense of such Claim and acting in a competent manner, or (iii) as otherwise provided below. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ its own legal counsel in such Claim, but (except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence or as otherwise provided below in this sentence) all Expenses related to such counsel incurred after notice from the Company of its assumption of the defense shall be at Indemnitee’s own expense; provided, however, that if (i) Indemnitee’s employment of its own legal counsel has been authorized by the Company, (ii) Indemnitee has reasonably determined that there may be a conflict of interest between Indemnitee and the Company in the defense of such Claim, (iii) after a Change in Control, Indemnitee’s employment of its own counsel has been approved by the Independent Counsel (iv) the Company shall not in fact have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee, to assume the defense of such Claim and/or such counsel shall fail to adequately or effectively provide the defense of such Claim or otherwise fail to act in a competent manner, or (v) the Company is in breach of its obligations under this Agreement, then Indemnitee shall be entitled to retain its own separate counsel (but not more than one law firm plus, if applicable, local counsel in respect of any such Claim) and all Expenses related to such separate counsel shall be borne by the Company.

 

Indemnification Agreement | 6


 

8. Procedure upon Application for Indemnification. In order to obtain indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request therefor, including in such request such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification following the final disposition of the Claim, provided that documentation and information need not be so provided to the extent that the provision thereof would undermine or otherwise jeopardize attorney-client privilege. Indemnification shall be unless the Company affirmatively and in writing determines that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification in accordance with Section 9 below.

 

9. Determination of Right to Indemnification.

 

(a) Mandatory Indemnification; Indemnification as a Witness.

 

(i) To the extent that Indemnitee shall have been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Claim relating to an Indemnifiable Event or any portion thereof or in defense of any issue or matter therein, including without limitation dismissal without prejudice, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Losses relating to such Claim in accordance with Section 3 to the fullest extent allowable by law, and no Standard of Conduct Determination (as defined in Section 9(b)) shall be required.

 

(ii) To the extent that Indemnitee’s involvement in a Claim relating to an Indemnifiable Event is to serve as a witness and/or to prepare to serve as a witness, and not as a party, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Losses incurred in connection therewith to the fullest extent allowable by law and no Standard of Conduct Determination (as defined in Section 9(b)) shall be required.

 

(b) Standard of Conduct. To the extent that the provisions of Section 9(a) are inapplicable to a Claim related to an Indemnifiable Event that shall have been finally disposed of, any determination of whether Indemnitee has satisfied any applicable standard of conduct under Nevada law that is a legally required condition to indemnification of Indemnitee hereunder against Losses relating to such Claim and any determination that Expense Advances must be repaid to the Company (a “Standard of Conduct Determination”) shall be made as follows:

 

(i) by the holders of a majority of the outstanding common voting stock of the Company (acting at a meeting or by written consent), (ii) by a majority vote of a quorum consisting entirely of Disinterested Directors,

 

Indemnification Agreement | 7


 

 

(iii) if a majority vote of a quorum consisting entirely of Disinterested Directors so orders, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion addressed to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee,

 

(iv) if a quorum of Disinterested Directors cannot be obtained, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion addressed to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee; or

 

(v) if a Change in Control has occurred since the time of any acts or omissions of Indemnitee or the Company that are related to a Claim for which the indemnification is sought, at the option of Indemnitee, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion addressed to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee.

 

The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee against and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall reimburse Indemnitee for, or advance to Indemnitee, within thirty (30) days of such request, any and all Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in cooperating with the person or persons making such Standard of Conduct Determination (including, without limitation, costs and expenses of legal counsel advising Indemnitee on such matter).

 

(c) Making the Standard of Conduct Determination. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any Standard of Conduct Determination required under Section 9(b) to be made as promptly as practicable. If the person or persons designated to make the Standard of Conduct Determination under Section 9(b) shall not have made a determination within thirty (30) days after the later of (A) receipt by the Company of a written request from Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to Section 8 (the date of such receipt being the “Notification Date”) and (B) the selection of an Independent Counsel, if such determination is to be made by Independent Counsel, then Indemnitee shall be deemed to have satisfied the applicable standard of conduct; provided that such thirty (30)-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional fifteen (15) days, if the person or persons making such determination in good faith requires such additional time to obtain or evaluate information relating thereto. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no determination as to entitlement of Indemnitee to indemnification under this Agreement shall be required to be made prior to the final disposition of any Claim.

 

(d) Payment of Indemnification. If, in regard to any Losses:

 

(i) Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 9(a); (ii) no Standard Conduct Determination is legally required as a condition to indemnification of Indemnitee hereunder; or

 

Indemnification Agreement | 8


 

 

(iii) Indemnitee has been determined or deemed pursuant to Section 9(b) or Section 9(c) to have satisfied the Standard of Conduct Determination,

 

then the Company shall pay to Indemnitee, within five (5) business days after the later of (A) the Notification Date or (B) the earliest date on which the applicable criterion specified in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) is satisfied, an amount equal to such Losses. Such amount shall be paid without deduction (other than any deduction for legally mandated tax withholdings) or off set.

 

(e) Selection of Independent Counsel for Standard of Conduct Determination. If a Standard of Conduct Determination is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 9(b)(i), the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board of Directors, and the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising Indemnitee of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. If a Standard of Conduct Determination is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 9(b)(v), the Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee, and Indemnitee shall give written notice to the Company advising it of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. In either case, Indemnitee or the Company, as applicable, may, within five days after receiving written notice of selection from the other, deliver to the other a written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not satisfy the criteria set forth in the definition of “Independent Counsel” in Section 1(i), and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person or firm so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If such written objection is properly and timely made and substantiated, (i) the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court has determined that such objection is without merit; and (ii) the non-objecting party may, at its option, select an alternative Independent Counsel and give written notice to the other party advising such other party of the identity of the alternative Independent Counsel so selected, in which case the provisions of the two immediately preceding sentences, the introductory clause of this sentence and numbered clause (i) of this sentence shall likewise apply to such subsequent selection and notice. If applicable, the provisions of clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence shall apply to successive alternative selections. If no Independent Counsel that is permitted under the foregoing provisions of this Section 9(e) to make the Standard of Conduct Determination shall have been selected within 20 days after the Company gives its initial notice pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 9(e) or Indemnitee gives its initial notice pursuant to the second sentence of this Section 9(e), as the case may be, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition the Eighth Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada (“Nevada Court”) to resolve any objection which shall have been made by the Company or Indemnitee to the other’s selection of Independent Counsel and/or to appoint as Independent Counsel a person to be selected by the Court or such other person as the Court shall designate, and the person or firm with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person or firm so appointed will act as Independent Counsel. In all events, the Company shall pay all of the reasonable fees and expenses of the Independent Counsel incurred in connection with the Independent Counsel’s determination pursuant to Section 9(b), which fees shall include, without limitation, any co-counsel reasonably associated by the Independent Counsel. In the event that the Company has any objection to such fees, the Company shall nevertheless promptly pay the same, provided that such payment may be made under a reservation of rights.

 

Indemnification Agreement | 9


 

(f) Presumptions and Defenses.

 

(i) Indemnitee’s Entitlement to Indemnification. In making any Standard of Conduct Determination, the person or persons making such determination shall presume that Indemnitee has satisfied the applicable standard of conduct and is entitled to indemnification, and the Company shall have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption and establish that Indemnitee is not so entitled. Any Standard of Conduct Determination that is adverse to Indemnitee may be challenged by Indemnitee in the Nevada Court. No determination by the Company (including by its directors or any Independent Counsel) that Indemnitee has not satisfied any applicable standard of conduct may be used as a defense to any legal proceedings brought by Indemnitee to secure indemnification or reimbursement or advance payment of Expenses by the Company hereunder or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met any applicable standard of conduct.

 

(ii) Reliance as a Safe Harbor. For purposes of this Agreement, and without creating any presumption as to a lack of good faith if the following circumstances do not exist, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company if Indemnitee’s actions or omissions to act are taken in good faith reliance upon the records of the Company, including its financial statements, or upon information, opinions, reports or statements furnished to Indemnitee by the officers or employees of the Company or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries or the Enterprise in the course of their duties, or by committees of the Board or by any other Person (including legal counsel, accountants and financial advisors) as to matters Indemnitee reasonably believes are within such other Person’s professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Company. In addition, the knowledge and/or actions, or failures to act, of any director, officer, agent or employee of the Company shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnity hereunder.

 

(iii) No Other Presumptions. For purposes of this Agreement, the termination of any Claim by judgment, order, settlement (whether with or without court approval) or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, will not create a presumption that Indemnitee did not meet any applicable standard of conduct or have any particular belief, or that indemnification hereunder is otherwise not permitted.

 

Indemnification Agreement | 10


 

(iv) Defense to Indemnification and Burden of Proof. It shall be a defense to any action brought by Indemnitee against the Company to enforce this Agreement (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for Losses incurred in defending against a Claim related to an Indemnifiable Event in advance of its final disposition) that it is not permissible under applicable law for the Company to indemnify Indemnitee for the amount claimed. In connection with any such action or any related Standard of Conduct Determination, the burden of proving such a defense or that Indemnitee did not satisfy the applicable standard of conduct shall be on the Company.

 

(v) Resolution of Claims. The Company acknowledges that a settlement or other disposition short of final judgment may be successful on the merits or otherwise for purposes of Section 9(a)(i) if it permits a party to avoid expense, delay, distraction, disruption and/or uncertainty. In the event that any Claim relating to an Indemnifiable Event to which Indemnitee is a party is resolved in any manner other than by a final adverse judgment, memorialized in a writing, and not subject to appeal against Indemnitee (including, without limitation, settlement of such action, claim or proceeding with our without payment of money or other consideration), it shall be presumed that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise for purposes of Section 9(a)(i). The Company shall have the burden of proof to overcome this presumption.

 

10. Exclusions from Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to:

 

(a) indemnify or advance funds to Indemnitee for Expenses or Losses with respect to proceedings initiated by Indemnitee, including any proceedings against the Company or its directors, officers, employees or other indemnitees and not by way of defense (including, without limitation, with respect to claims of wrongful termination by such Indemnitee against the Company, any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company or the Enterprise), except:

 

(i) proceedings brought by Indemnitee to interpret or enforce Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement (unless the Nevada Court finally determines that each of the material assertions made by Indemnitee in such proceeding was not made in good faith or was frivolous); or (ii) where the Company has joined in or the Board has consented to the initiation of such proceedings;

 

Indemnification Agreement | 11


 

 

(b) indemnify Indemnitee if a final decision by a court of competent jurisdiction, not capable of appeal, determines that such indemnification is judged to be prohibited by applicable law;

 

(c) indemnify Indemnitee or advance funds to Indemnitee for the disgorgement of profits arising from the purchase or sale by Indemnitee of securities of the Company in violation of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, or any similar successor statute; or

 

(d) indemnify or advance funds to Indemnitee for Indemnitee’s reimbursement to the Company of any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation previously received by Indemnitee or payment of any profits realized by Indemnitee from the sale of securities of the Company, as required in each case under the Exchange Act (including any such reimbursements under Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 in connection with an accounting restatement of the Company or the payment to the Company of profits arising from the purchase or sale by Indemnitee of securities in violation of Section 306 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act).

 

11. Settlement of Claims. So long as the Company shall not be in material breach of its obligation under this Agreement (after notice and a thirty (30) day cure period), the Company shall not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any threatened or pending Claim related to an Indemnifiable Event effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that if a Change in Control has occurred, the Company shall be liable for indemnification of Indemnitee for amounts paid in settlement if an Independent Counsel (appointed by Indemnitee as provide in Section 9(e), above) has approved the settlement. The Company shall not settle any Claim related to an Indemnifiable Event in any manner that would impose any Losses on Indemnitee or which would result in the issuance of any injunction binding upon Indemnitee or the creation of any contractual obligation on the part of the Indemnitor to do or not do anything, without Indemnitee’s prior written consent.

 

12. Duration. All agreements and obligations of the Company contained herein shall continue during the period that Indemnitee is a director and/or officer of the Company (or is serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, member, manager, trustee or agent of or consultant to the Company, any direct or indirect subsidiary, or the Enterprise) and shall continue thereafter (i) so long as Indemnitee may be subject to any possible Claim relating to an Indemnifiable Event (including any rights of appeal thereto) and (ii) throughout the pendency of any proceeding (including any rights of appeal thereto) commenced by Indemnitee to enforce or interpret Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement, even if, in either case, Indemnitee may have ceased to serve in such capacity at the time of any such Claim or proceeding (such period being referred to as the “Term of this Agreement”).

 

Indemnification Agreement | 12


 

13. Non-Exclusivity. The rights of Indemnitee hereunder will be in addition to any other rights Indemnitee may have under the Constituent Documents, Chapter 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, any other contract or otherwise (collectively, “Other Indemnity Provisions”); provided, however, that (a) to the extent that Indemnitee otherwise would have any greater right to indemnification under any Other Indemnity Provision, Indemnitee will be deemed to have such greater right hereunder and (b) to the extent that any change is made to any Other Indemnity Provision which permits any greater right to indemnification than that provided under this Agreement as of the date hereof, Indemnitee will be deemed to have such greater right hereunder. No amendment to any of the Constituent Documents shall have the effect denying, diminishing or encumbering Indemnitee’s right to indemnification under this Agreement or any Other Indemnity Provision and shall be subordinate to Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement.

 

14. Liability Insurance. During the Term of this Agreement, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts (taking into account the scope and amount of coverage available relative to the cost thereof) to continue to maintain in effect policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance providing coverage that is at least substantially comparable in scope and amount to that provided by the Company’s current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance. In all policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by the Company, Indemnitee shall be named as an insured in such a manner as to provide Indemnitee the same rights and benefits as are provided to the most favorably insured of the Company’s directors, if Indemnitee is a director, or of the Company’s officers, if Indemnitee is an officer (and not a director) by such policy. Upon request, the Company will provide to Indemnitee copies of all directors’ and officers’ liability insurance applications, binders, policies, declarations, endorsements and other related materials.

 

15. No Duplication of Payments. The Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment to Indemnitee in respect of any Losses to the extent Indemnitee has otherwise received payment under any insurance policy, the Constituent Documents, Other Indemnity Provisions or otherwise of the amounts otherwise indemnifiable by the Company hereunder.

 

16. Subrogation. In the event of payment to Indemnitee under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee. Indemnitee shall execute all papers required and shall do everything that may be necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents necessary to enable the Company effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights.

 

17. Amendments. No supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by both of the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding unless in the form of a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the waiver is sought, and no such waiver shall operate as a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver. Except as specifically provided herein, no failure to exercise or any delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall constitute a waiver thereof.

 

Indemnification Agreement | 13


 

18. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company), assigns, spouses, heirs and personal and legal representatives. The Company shall require and cause any successor (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all, or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company, by written agreement in form and substances satisfactory to Indemnitee, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place.

 

19. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be severable in the event that any of the provisions hereof (including any portion thereof) are held by the Nevada Court (or if applicable, the arbitrator) to be invalid, illegal, void or otherwise unenforceable, and the remaining provisions shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. In the event that any provision is found to be invalid, illegal, void or otherwise unenforceable, it is the intention and desire of the parties that such provision be read down so as to preserve, to the maximum extent possible, the protections and benefits provided by this Agreement to Indemnitee.

 

20. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered by hand, against receipt, or mailed, by postage prepaid, certified or registered mail:

21. Governing Law and Forum. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada applicable to contracts made and to be performed in such state without giving effect to its principles of conflicts of laws. The Company and Indemnitee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: (a) agree that any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be brought only in the Nevada Court and not in any other state or federal court in the United States, (b) consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Nevada Court for purposes of any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, and (c) waive, and agree not to plead or make, any claim that the Nevada Court lacks venue or that any such action or proceeding brought in the Nevada Court has been brought in an improper or inconvenient forum.

 

22. Remedies of Indemnitee.

 

(a) If (1) a determination is made pursuant to Section 9 hereof that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, (2) advances of Expenses are not timely made pursuant to this Agreement, (3) payment has not been timely made following a determination of entitlement to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, (4) a Standard of Conduct Determination is not made pursuant to Section 9(b) within the time period therefor designated in Section 9(c), or (5) Indemnitee otherwise seeks enforcement of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to a final adjudication of the remedy sought in the Nevada Court. The Company hereby consents to service and to appear in any such proceeding. Alternatively, Indemnitee, at Indemnitee’s option, may seek an award in arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator in Clark County, Nevada, pursuant to the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. The decision of such arbitrator is to be made within ninety (90) days following the filing of the demand for arbitration. The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication or arbitration award. The parties agree that each shall be bound by the determination rendered in any judicial proceeding or arbitration conducted pursuant to this Section 22(a) and that no appeal shall be taken from such determination by either party.

 

(b) If a determination that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, in whole or in part, has been made pursuant to Section 9 hereof, the decision in the judicial proceeding or arbitration provided in subsection (a) of this Section 22 shall be made de novo and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of any prior determination that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification.

 

(c) If a determination that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification has been made pursuant to Section 9 hereof, the Company shall be bound by such determination.

 

(d) The Company shall be precluded from asserting that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable. The Company shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement and is precluded from making any assertion to the contrary.

 

(e) In addition to any other remedies to which Indemnitee may be entitled, at law, in equity or in arbitration, to the extent that any moneys are determined to be owed by the Company to Indemnitee, such amounts shall bear interest from the date said amounts were due at the lesser of ten (10) percent per annum (compounded monthly), or the maximum amount allowed by applicable Nevada Law.

 

23. Headings. The headings of the sections and paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this Agreement or to affect the construction or interpretation thereof.

 

24. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.

EX-10.5 10 ea020178401ex10-5_xtiaero.htm CONSULTING AGREEMENT, DATED MARCH 12, 2024, BY AND BETWEEN XTI AEROSPACE, INC. AND NADIR ALI

Exhibit 10.5

 

CONSULTING AGREEMENT

 

This Consulting Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of March 12, 2024, by and between Inpixon, a Nevada corporation (“Company”), and Nadir Ali, an individual (“Consultant”). Company and Consultant hereinafter are sometimes referred to, individually, as a “Party” and, collectively, as the “Parties.”

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Merger Agreement, dated as of July 24, 2023, by and among Company, Inpixon Merger Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”) and XTI Aircraft Company (“XTI” and such agreement, the “Merger Agreement”), Merger Sub shall merge with and into XTI, whereupon the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and XTI shall be the surviving corporation (the “Transaction”); and

 

WHEREAS, contingent upon and subject to the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”), and provided this Agreement is accepted in full by Consultant, Company desires to engage Consultant, and Consultant is willing to accept such engagement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, which will begin to apply as of the Closing (the “Effective Date”).

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Consultant and Company agree as follows:

 

1. Services and Payment. Consultant agrees to undertake and complete the Services (as defined in Exhibit A) in accordance with the applicable statement of work, a form of which is attached as Exhibit A hereto, which will be executed by both Parties (the “Statement of Work”). Unless otherwise specifically agreed upon by Company in writing (and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement), all activity relating to Services will be performed by and only by Consultant. If Consultant intends to engage employees of Consultant to provide any of the Services, Consultant must first obtain the Company’s written consent to so engage such employees including approval of the specific employees to be used (“Consultant Personnel”). Consultant agrees that it will not (and will not permit others to) violate any agreement with or rights of any third party in connection with the Services or, except as expressly authorized by Company in writing hereafter, use or disclose at any time Consultant’s own or any third party’s (including without limitation Company’s) confidential information or intellectual property in connection with the Services or otherwise for or on behalf of Company.

 

2. Ownership; Rights; Proprietary Information; Publicity; Other Obligations.

 

a. Company shall own all right, title and interest (including patent rights, copyrights, trade secret rights, mask work rights, trademark rights, sui generis database rights and all other intellectual and industrial property rights of any sort throughout the world) relating to any and all inventions (whether or not patentable), works of authorship, mask works, designations, designs, know-how, ideas and information made or conceived or reduced to practice, in whole or in part, by Consultant in connection with the Services or any Proprietary Information (as defined below) (collectively, “Inventions”). Consultant will promptly disclose and provide all Inventions to Company and will keep adequate and current written records of all Inventions, which records shall be available to and shall remain the sole property of Company. Consultant hereby makes, and agrees to make in the future, all assignments necessary to accomplish the foregoing ownership. Consultant represents, warrants and covenants that Consultant has obtained or will obtain, prior to having any particular Consultant Personnel perform Services, an assignment of such Consultant Personnel’s rights in Inventions as needed to give effect to Company’s ownership as contemplated above; provided, that no assignment is made that extends beyond what is allowed under applicable law. Consultant shall assist Company (and, where applicable, shall cause Consultant Personnel to assist Company), at Company’s expense, to further evidence, record and perfect such assignments, and to perfect, obtain, maintain, enforce and defend any rights assigned. Consultant hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Company as its agent and attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to act for and on Consultant’s behalf to execute and file any document and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the foregoing with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Consultant.

 

 


 

b. If the provisions of Section 2(a) above are not adequate to vest sole and exclusive ownership of such rights in the Company by operation of law in any jurisdiction, Consultant agrees to and hereby does assign, grant and convey all ownership rights in the Inventions to Company effective as of/from the moment of its creation without the necessity of any other action by, or consideration from, any of the Parties. Company accepts such assignment, grant and conveyance. Consultant agrees to provide Company, at Company’s expense, all assistance required to vest or perfect Company’s exclusive ownership of the same and to cooperate with Company and do all acts requested by Company to evidence, establish, apply for, procure, register, record, maintain, enforce and defend Company’s ownership rights on a prompt basis, but in any event within such time period(s) as required to enable Company to timely preserve or assert its rights in any country or region of the world. Consultant agrees to comply with all reasonable requests from Company related to securing, protecting, enforcing and defending Company’s rights in the Inventions, including, without limitation, executing additional documents and/or instruments as reasonably requested by the Company, at the Company’s expense, beyond that specifically provided for in this Agreement. Consultant represents and warrants that he has the right to grant the foregoing rights.

 

c. Consultant agrees that all Inventions and all other business, technical and financial information (including, without limitation, computer programs, technical drawings, algorithms, know-how, trade secrets, formulas, processes, ideas, inventions (whether patentable or copyrightable not), improvements, schematics, customer lists and customer information, suppliers and supplier information, pricing information, product development, sales and marketing plans and strategies, personnel information, and other technical, business, financial, customer and product information), Consultant learns, develops or obtains in connection with the Services or that are received by or for Consultant in confidence, constitute “Proprietary Information.” Consultant shall hold in confidence and not disclose or, except in performing the Services, use any Proprietary Information. However, Consultant shall not be obligated under this Section 2(c) with respect to information (i) that is or becomes readily publicly available without restriction other than as a result of disclosure by the Consultant, (ii) is or becomes available to the Consultant on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company or its affiliates or any of their respective representatives, or (iii) that the Consultant is legally required to disclose pursuant to a subpoena, interrogatory, civil investigative demand or similar process. Upon termination or as otherwise requested by Company, Consultant will promptly return to Company all items and copies containing or embodying Proprietary Information, except that Consultant may keep Consultant’s personal copies of Consultant’s compensation records and this Agreement. Consultant also recognizes and agrees that Consultant has no expectation of privacy with respect to Company’s telecommunications, networking or information processing systems (including, without limitation, stored computer files, email messages and voice messages), and that Consultant’s activity, and any files or messages, on or using any of those systems may be monitored at any time without notice.

d. If any part of the Services or Inventions is based on, incorporates, or is an improvement or derivative of, or cannot be reasonably and fully made, used, reproduced, distributed and otherwise exploited without using or violating technology or intellectual property rights owned or licensed by Consultant and not assigned hereunder, Consultant hereby grants Company and its successors a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicensable right and license to exploit and exercise all such technology and intellectual property rights in support of Company’s exercise or exploitation of the Services, Inventions, other work performed hereunder, or any assigned rights (including any modifications, improvements and derivatives of any of them).

 

e. Consultant represents that its performance of all terms of this Agreement as a consultant of Company has not breached and will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information, knowledge or data acquired by Consultant prior or subsequent to the commencement of Consultant’s consultant relationship with Company, and Consultant will not disclose to Company, or use, any inventions, confidential or non-public proprietary information or material belonging to any previous client, employer or any other party. Consultant will not induce Company to use any inventions, confidential or non-public proprietary information or material belonging to any previous client, employer or any other party. Prior to the disclosure of any information that would constitute material non-public information of the company within the meaning of U.S. federal securities laws (“MNPI”), Company agrees to first notify Consultant that it desires to share information that may be considered MNPI in connection with providing the Services (“Pre-Notice”), and following receipt of such Pre-Notice, Consultant will either confirm his ability to receive such information or advise the Company that he is not able to receive such information at such time and the expected date upon which he may receive such MNPI.

 

f. Consultant recognizes that Company has received and, in the future, will receive confidential or proprietary information from third parties subject to a duty on Company’s part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. Consultant agrees to treat such information as Proprietary Information in accordance with and to the same extent required by Section 2(c) hereof and not to use it except as necessary in carrying out Consultant’s work for Company.

 

3. Warranty and other Obligations.

 

a. Consultant warrants that: (i) the Services will be performed according to standards and procedures established or approved by the Parties or otherwise consistent with the highest professional standards; (ii) all work under this Agreement shall be Consultant’s original work and none of the Services or Inventions nor any development, use, production, distribution or exploitation thereof will infringe, misappropriate or violate any intellectual property or other right of any person or entity (including, without limitation, Consultant); (iii) Consultant has the full right to allow itself to provide Company with the assignments and rights provided for herein and, in addition, Consultant will have each person who may be involved in any way with, or have any access to, any Services or Proprietary Information enter into (prior to any such involvement or access) a binding agreement for Company’s benefit that contains provisions at least as protective as those contained herein; (iv) Consultant shall comply with all applicable laws and Company safety rules in the course of performing the Services; (v) Consultant shall comply with all policies and procedures of the Company of which Consultant has knowledge through the training or otherwise provided to Consultant by the Company; and (vi) if Consultant’s work requires a professional license, Consultant has obtained that license and the license is in full force and effect.

b. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Consultant shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Company and all of its directors, officers, employees and agents from and against all claims, losses, injury, damage, withholdings and legal liability, including attorney’s fees and litigation costs, caused by the gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of Consultant or Consultant’s employees, contractors and agents. Such indemnity shall extend to all claims, losses, injury, damage, and legal liability arising from or related to any infringement or violation of any patent, copyright, trade secret, license or other property or contractual right of any third party.

 

c. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Company shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Consultant and all of its members, directors, officers, employees and agents from and against all claims, losses, injury, damage, withholdings and legal liability, including attorney’s fees and litigation costs (“Losses”), caused by (i) the gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of Company, Company’s affiliates or their employees, contractors and agents, and (ii) the activities conducted by Consultant on behalf of Company in connection with the performance of the Services in accordance to this Agreement; except to the extent such Losses fall within the scope of indemnification obligations of Consultant under Section 3(b) above. Such indemnity shall extend to all claims, losses, injury, damage, and legal liability arising from or related to any infringement or violation of any patent, copyright, trade secret, license or other property or contractual right of any third party.

 

4. Term and Termination. This Agreement shall commence upon the Effective Date and shall continue in effect until (a) terminated pursuant to this Section 4 or (b) the date that is fifteen (15) months after the Effective Date, whichever is first to occur (the “Term”). The Company or the Consultant may, at each such party’s option and upon written notice provided to the other party at least 60 days prior to the end of any Term, extend the Term for up to an additional one-year period upon the other party’s written acceptance of such extension. Company may terminate this Agreement at any time without notice if Consultant breaches a material provision of this Agreement and such breach has not been cured within 30 days following written notice or email notice of such purported breach sent by the Company to Consultant, if such breach is capable of being cured. Company also may terminate this Agreement at any time, upon 30 calendar days written or email notice, but Company shall upon such termination pay Consultant all unpaid, undisputed amounts due for the Services completed prior to the notice of such termination; provided, however, if this Agreement is terminated by the Company prior to the six (6)-month anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Guaranteed Period”) for any reason other than the gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of Consultant or Consultant’s employees, contractors and agents, or Consultant’s willful refusal or failure to substantially perform the Services (each, “Company Good Reason”), all Service Fees (as defined in the Statement of Work) due and owing for the remainder of the Guaranteed Period shall be payable according to the same payment schedule set for in the Statement of Work. In addition, in the event the Company terminates this Agreement for any reason other than a Company Good Reason any time prior to the fifteen (15)-month anniversary of the Effective Date, all then-unpaid Equity Payments (as set forth on the Statement of Work) shall immediately vest and become due and payable as of the effective date of such termination. Consultant may terminate the Agreement (i) upon 30 calendar days written notice; (ii) anytime, in the event Company fails to pay the consideration when due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such failure has not been cured within thirty (30) days, (iii) the gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of  Company or Company’s employees, contractors and agents; or (iv) Company files for bankruptcy. Any termination by Consultant due to any of the reasons specified in subsections (ii) through (iv) shall be referred to as “Consultant Good Reason”. In the event of a termination of this Agreement by Consultant for a Consultant Good Reason, (x) all Service Fees payable for the remainder of the Term shall continue to be paid according to the same payment schedule set for in the Statement of Work and (y) all then-unpaid Equity Payments (as set forth on the Statement of Work) shall immediately vest and become due and payable as of the effective date of such termination by Consultant. Sections 2 through 12 of this Agreement and any remedies for breach of this Agreement shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement. Company may communicate the obligations contained in this Agreement to any other (or potential) client or employer of Consultant.

5. Relationship of the Parties; Independent Contractor; No Employee Benefits. Notwithstanding any provision hereof, Consultant is an independent contractor, and neither Consultant nor any Consultant Personnel is an employee, agent, partner or joint venture of Company, and neither Consultant nor any Consultant Personnel shall bind or attempt to bind Company to any contract. Consultant shall accept any reasonable and lawful directions issued by Company pertaining to the goals to be attained and the results to be achieved by Consultant’s provision of the Services hereunder, but Consultant shall be solely responsible for the manner and hours in which the Services are performed under this Agreement. This Agreement shall not entitle Consultant nor any Consultant Personnel to participate in any of Company’s employee benefit plans, fringe benefit programs, group insurance arrangements or similar programs. This Agreement shall not entitle Consultant to any workers’ compensation, disability insurance, Social Security or unemployment compensation coverage or any other statutory benefit to Consultant or any Consultant personnel from the Company. Consultant will be solely responsible for the performance of all Consultant Personnel, for compensating such Consultant Personnel, and for complying with all laws and regulations applicable to its relationships with such Consultant Personnel. Without limiting the foregoing, Consultant shall comply at Consultant’s expense with all applicable provisions of workers’ compensation laws, unemployment compensation laws, federal Social Security law, the Fair Labor Standards Act, federal, state and local income tax laws, and all other applicable federal, state and local laws, regulations and codes relating to terms and conditions of employment required to be fulfilled by employers or independent contractors. All fees payable to Consultant do not include any taxes and Company is not liable for any taxes that Consultant is legally obligated to pay. Consultant agrees to indemnify Company from all claims, damages, liability, settlement, attorneys’ fees and expenses, as incurred, because of the foregoing or any breach of this Section 5. If the law requires Company to withhold taxes from payments to Consultant, Company may withhold those taxes and pay them to the appropriate taxing authority. If Consultant is an entity, it will ensure its employees and agents are bound in writing to Consultant’s obligations under this Agreement.

 

6. Assignment. This Agreement and the services contemplated hereunder are personal to Consultant and Consultant shall not have the right or ability to assign, transfer or subcontract any obligations under this Agreement without the written consent of Company. Any attempt to do so shall be void. Company may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement in whole or part only to the Company’s affiliated companies.

 

7. Notice. Unless otherwise provided herein, all notices under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when delivered by hand or professional courier or express delivery service to the address of the Party to be noticed as set forth below or to such other address as such Party last provided to the other by written notice.

8. Non-Solicitation; Conflict of Interest. As additional protection for Proprietary Information, Consultant agrees that during the period over which it is to be providing the Services: and for one year thereafter, Consultant will not directly or indirectly encourage or solicit any employee, consultant, customer, vendor, contractor or any other person or entity with which Company or any of its affiliates, has a business relationship to cease doing business with Company, or any of its affiliates, or in any way interfere with the relationship between Company, or any of its affiliates, and such persons and entities.

 

9. [Intentionally Omitted]

 

10. Publicity. Consultant shall make no public announcements or engage in any marketing or promotion concerning this Agreement, or the work performed hereunder without the advance written consent of Company.

 

11. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado. Each of Company and Consultant waives any right it, he or she may otherwise have to a trial by jury in any action to enforce the terms of this Agreement.

 

12. Arbitration. Any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with any provision of this Agreement will be finally settled by binding arbitration in the State of Colorado, County of Denver. The arbitrator shall be selected, and the arbitration hearing conducted pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator shall apply Colorado law, without reference to rules of conflicts of law or rules of statutory arbitration, to the resolution of any dispute. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction located within the State of Colorado, County of Denver for preliminary or interim equitable relief, or to compel arbitration in accordance with this paragraph, without breach of this arbitration provision. If any court or arbitrator finds that any term makes this arbitration agreement unenforceable for any reason, the court or arbitrator shall have the power to modify such term to the minimum extent necessary to make this arbitration agreement enforceable and, to the extent this arbitration agreement as a whole is deemed unenforceable for any reason, the Parties agree that the venue of any litigation or dispute between the Parties shall be exclusively in Denver, Colorado.

 

13. Legal Counsel. Consultant acknowledges and agrees that Consultant (a) has been afforded a reasonable opportunity to review this Agreement, to understand its terms and to discuss it with an attorney of Consultant’s choice, and (b) knowingly and voluntarily entered into this Agreement.

 

14. Miscellaneous. This Agreement sets forth the entire and exclusive understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and merges all prior and contemporaneous agreements or understandings, whether written or oral, with respect to its subject matter. Any breach of Section 2, 3, 8 or 9 will cause irreparable harm to Company for which damages would not be an adequate remedy, and therefore, Company will be entitled to injunctive relief with respect thereto in addition to any other remedies. The failure of either Party to enforce its rights under this Agreement at any time for any period shall not be construed as a waiver of such rights. No changes or modifications or waivers to this Agreement will be effective unless in writing and signed by both Parties. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. In any action or proceeding to enforce rights under this Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover costs and attorneys’ fees. Headings herein are for convenience of reference only and shall in no way affect interpretation of the Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

ARTICLE II.

 

AWARD OF RESTRICTED STOCK

 

2.1 Award of Restricted Stock.

 

(a) Award. Pursuant to the Grant Notice and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement, effective as of the Grant Date set forth in the Grant Notice, the Company has granted to the Participant an award of Restricted Stock (the “Award”) under the Plan in consideration of the Participant’s past and/or continued employment with or service to the Company or the Company’s affiliates, and for other good and valuable consideration which the Committee has determined exceeds the aggregate par value of the Common Stock subject to the Award as of the Grant Date. The number of Shares subject to the Award is set forth in the Grant Notice. The Participant is an employee, director or consultant of the Company or one of the Company’s affiliates.

 

(b) Book Entry Form; Certificates. At the sole discretion of the Committee, the Shares will be issued in either (i) uncertificated form, with the Shares recorded in the name of the Participant in the books and records of the Company’s transfer agent with appropriate notations regarding the restrictions on transfer imposed pursuant to this Agreement, and upon vesting and the satisfaction of all conditions set forth in Sections 2.2(b) and (d) hereof, the Company shall remove such notations on any such vested Shares in accordance with Section 2.1(e) below; or (ii) certificated form pursuant to the terms of Sections 2.1(c), (d) and (e) below.

 

(c) Legend. Certificates representing Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement shall, until all Restrictions (as defined below) imposed pursuant to this Agreement lapse or have been removed and the Shares have thereby become vested or the Shares represented thereby have been forfeited hereunder, bear the following legend (or such other legend as shall be determined by the Administrator):

 

“THE TRANSFERABILITY OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE SHARES OF STOCK REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS (INCLUDING FORFEITURE) OF THE INPIXON EMPLOYEE STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN AND A RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT.

The Participant, by acceptance of the Award, shall be deemed to appoint, and does so appoint, the Company and each of its authorized representatives as the Participant’s attorney(s)-in-fact to effect any transfer of unvested forfeited Shares (or Shares otherwise reacquired by the Company hereunder) to the Company as may be required pursuant to the Plan or this Agreement and to execute such documents as the Company or such representatives deem necessary or advisable in connection with any such transfer.

 

10


 

(e) Removal of Notations; Delivery of Certificates Upon Vesting. As soon as administratively practicable after the vesting of any Shares subject to the Award pursuant to Section 2.2(b) hereof, the Company shall, as applicable, either remove the notations on any Shares subject to the Award issued in book entry form which have vested or deliver to the Participant a certificate or certificates evidencing the number of Shares subject to the Award which have vested (or, in either case, such lesser number of Shares as may be permitted pursuant to Section 2.2(c) of this Agreement). The Participant (or the beneficiary or personal representative of the Participant in the event of the Participant’s death or incapacity, as the case may be) shall deliver to the Company any representations or other documents or assurances required by the Company. The Shares so delivered shall no longer be subject to the Restrictions hereunder.

 

2.2 Restrictions.

 

(a) Forfeiture. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, upon the Participant’s Termination of Employment for any or no reason, any portion of the Award (and the Shares subject thereto) which has not vested prior to or in connection with such Termination of Employment (after taking into consideration any accelerated vesting and lapsing of Restrictions, if any, which may occur in connection with such Termination of Employment) shall thereupon be forfeited immediately and without any further action by the Company or the Participant, and the Participant shall have no further right or interest in or with respect to such Shares or such portion of the Award. For purposes of this Agreement, “Restrictions” shall mean the restrictions on sale or other transfer set forth in Section 3.2 hereof and the exposure to forfeiture set forth in this Section 2.2(a).

 

(b) Vesting and Lapse of Restrictions. Subject to Section 2.2(a) above, the Award shall vest and Restrictions shall lapse in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Grant Notice (rounding down to the nearest whole Share, except in the case of the final vesting event). In addition, if a Change of Control occurs and the Participant remains an employee, director or consultant at least until immediately prior to the Change of Control, then the Award shall vest in full and Restrictions thereon shall lapse immediately prior to the occurrence of such Change of Control.

 

(c) Tax Withholding. The Company or the Company’s affiliates shall be entitled to require a cash payment (or to elect, such other form of payment determined in accordance with Section 13 of the Plan) by or on behalf of the Participant and/or to deduct from other compensation payable to the Participant any sums required by federal, state or local tax law to be withheld with respect to the grant or vesting of the Award or the lapse of the Restrictions hereunder. In satisfaction of the foregoing requirement with respect to the grant or vesting of the Award or the lapse of the Restrictions hereunder, unless otherwise determined by the Company, the Company or the Company’s affiliates shall withhold Shares otherwise issuable under the Award having a fair market value equal to the sums required to be withheld by federal, state and/or local tax law. The number of Shares which shall be so withheld in order to satisfy such federal, state and/or local withholding tax liabilities shall be limited to the number of shares which have a fair market value on the date of withholding equal to the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the minimum applicable federal, state and/or local tax withholding rates. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (including without limitation Section 2.1(b) hereof), the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any new certificate representing Shares to the Participant or the Participant’s legal representative or to enter any such Shares in book entry form unless and until the Participant or the Participant’s legal representative, as applicable, shall have paid or otherwise satisfied in full the amount of all federal, state and local taxes applicable to the taxable income of the Participant resulting from the grant or vesting of the Award or the issuance of Shares hereunder.

 

(d) Conditions to Delivery of Shares. Subject to Section 2.1 above, the Shares deliverable under this Award may be either previously authorized but unissued Shares, treasury Shares or Shares purchased on the open market. Such Shares shall be fully paid and nonassessable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the issuance of such Shares shall not be delayed if and to the extent that such delay would result in a violation of Section 409A of Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). In the event that the Company delays the issuance of such Shares because it reasonably determines that the issuance of such Shares will violate Section 17 of the Plan, such issuance shall be made at the earliest date at which the Company reasonably determines that issuing such Shares will not cause such violation, as required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(ii).

 

11


 

2.3 Consideration to the Company. In consideration of the grant of the Award pursuant hereto, the Participant agrees to render faithful and efficient services to the Company or any affiliate of the Company.

 

ARTICLE III.

 

OTHER PROVISIONS

 

3.1 Section 83(b) Election. If the Participant makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed with respect to the Restricted Stock as of the date of transfer of the Restricted Stock rather than as of the date or dates upon which the Participant would otherwise be taxable under Section 83(a) of the Code, the Participant hereby agrees to deliver a copy of such election to the Company promptly after filing such election with the Internal Revenue Service.

 

3.2 Restricted Stock Not Transferable. Until the Restrictions hereunder lapse or expire pursuant to this Agreement and the Shares vest, the Restricted Stock (including any Shares received by holders thereof with respect to Restricted Stock as a result of stock dividends, stock splits or any other form of recapitalization) shall be subject to the restrictions on transferability set forth in Section 6.3(B) of the Plan.

 

3.3 Rights as Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided herein and in Sections 6.3(A), 6.3(B) and 6.3(C) of the Plan, upon the Grant Date, the Participant shall have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to the Shares, subject to the Restrictions, including, without limitation, voting rights and rights to receive any cash or stock dividends, in respect of the Shares subject to the Award and deliverable hereunder.

 

3.4 Not a Contract of Service Relationship. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue to serve as an employee or other service provider of the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Company and the Company’s affiliates, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or terminate the services of the Participant at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in a written agreement between the Company or an affiliate of the Company and the Participant.

 

3.5 Governing Law. The laws of the State of Nevada shall govern the interpretation, validity, administration, enforcement and performance of the terms of this Agreement regardless of the law that might be applied under principles of conflicts of laws.

 

3.6 Conformity to Securities Laws. The Participant acknowledges that the Plan and this Agreement are intended to conform to the extent necessary with all provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and any and all applicable state and federal law (collectively, “Applicable Law”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Plan shall be administered, and the Award is granted, only in such a manner as to conform to such laws, rules and regulations. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Plan and this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such laws, rules and regulations.

 

3.7 Amendment, Suspension and Termination. To the extent permitted by the Plan, this Agreement may be wholly or partially amended or otherwise modified, suspended or terminated at any time or from time to time by the Committee or the Board of Directors of the Company or an affiliate of the Company (if the affiliate, rather than the Company, is a party to the Agreement); provided, however, that, except as may otherwise be provided by the Plan, no amendment, modification, suspension or termination of this Agreement shall adversely affect the Award in any material way without the prior written consent of the Participant.

 

3.8 Notices. Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement shall be addressed to the Company in care of the Secretary of the Company at the Company’s principal office, and any notice to be given to the Participant shall be addressed to the Participant at the Participant’s last address reflected on the Company’s records. Any notice shall be deemed duly given when sent via email or when sent by reputable overnight courier or by certified mail (return receipt requested) through the United States Postal Service.

 

12


 

3.9 Successors and Assigns. The Company or any affiliate of the Company may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to single or multiple assignees, and this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company and its affiliates. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 3.2 hereof, this Agreement shall be binding upon the Participant and his or her heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.

 

3.10 Limitations Applicable to Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement, if the Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, then the Plan, the Award and this Agreement shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule.

 

3.11 Entire Agreement. The Plan, the Grant Notice and this Agreement (including all Exhibits thereto, if any) constitute the entire agreement of the parties and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and affiliates of the Company and the Participant with respect to the subject matter hereof.

 

3.12 Limitation on the Participant’s Rights. Participation in the Plan confers no rights or interests other than as herein provided. This Agreement creates only a contractual obligation on the part of the Company as to amounts payable and shall not be construed as creating a trust. The Plan, in and of itself, has no assets. The Participant shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company and affiliates of the Company with respect to amounts credited and benefits payable, if any, with respect to the Shares issuable hereunder.

Exhibit 10.6

 

FINAL EXECUTION

 

CONSULTING AGREEMENT

 

This Consulting Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of March 12, 2024, by and between Inpixon, a Nevada corporation (“Company”), and Wendy Loundermon (“Consultant”). Company and Consultant hereinafter are sometimes referred to, individually, as a “Party” and, collectively, as the “Parties.”

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Merger Agreement, dated as of July 24, 2023, by and among Company, Inpixon Merger Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”) and XTI Aircraft Company (“XTI” and such agreement, the “Merger Agreement”), Merger Sub shall merge with and into XTI, whereupon the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and XTI shall be the surviving corporation (the “Transaction”); and

 

WHEREAS, contingent upon and subject to the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”), and provided this Agreement is accepted in full by Consultant, Company desires to engage Consultant, and Consultant is willing to accept such engagement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, which will begin to apply as of the Closing (the “Effective Date”).

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Consultant and Company agree as follows:

 

1. Services and Payment. Consultant agrees to undertake and complete the Services (as defined in Exhibit A) in accordance with the applicable statement of work, a form of which is attached as Exhibit A hereto, which will be executed by both Parties (the “Statement of Work”). Unless otherwise specifically agreed upon by Company in writing (and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement), all activity relating to Services will be performed by and only by Consultant. If Consultant intends to engage employees of Consultant to provide any of the Services, Consultant must first obtain the Company’s written consent to so engage such employees including approval of the specific employees to be used (“Consultant Personnel”). Consultant agrees that it will not (and will not permit others to) violate any agreement with or rights of any third party in connection with the Services or, except as expressly authorized by Company in writing hereafter, use or disclose at any time Consultant’s own or any third party’s (including without limitation Company’s) confidential information or intellectual property in connection with the Services or otherwise for or on behalf of Company.

 

2. Ownership; Rights; Proprietary Information; Publicity; Other Obligations.

 

a. Company shall own all right, title and interest (including patent rights, copyrights, trade secret rights, mask work rights, trademark rights, sui generis database rights and all other intellectual and industrial property rights of any sort throughout the world) relating to any and all inventions (whether or not patentable), works of authorship, mask works, designations, designs, know-how, ideas and information made or conceived or reduced to practice, in whole or in part, by Consultant in connection with the Services or any Proprietary Information (as defined below) (collectively, “Inventions”). Consultant will promptly disclose and provide all Inventions to Company and will keep adequate and current written records of all Inventions, which records shall be available to and shall remain the sole property of Company. Consultant hereby makes, and agrees to make in the future, all assignments necessary to accomplish the foregoing ownership. Consultant represents, warrants and covenants that Consultant has obtained or will obtain, prior to having any particular Consultant Personnel perform Services, an assignment of such Consultant Personnel’s rights in Inventions as needed to give effect to Company’s ownership as contemplated above; provided, that no assignment is made that extends beyond what is allowed under applicable law. Consultant shall assist Company (and, where applicable, shall cause Consultant Personnel to assist Company), at Company’s expense, to further evidence, record and perfect such assignments, and to perfect, obtain, maintain, enforce and defend any rights assigned. Consultant hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Company as its agent and attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to act for and on Consultant’s behalf to execute and file any document and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the foregoing with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Consultant.

 

 


 

b. If the provisions of Section 2(a) above are not adequate to vest sole and exclusive ownership of such rights in the Company by operation of law in any jurisdiction, Consultant agrees to and hereby does assign, grant and convey all ownership rights in the Inventions to Company effective as of/from the moment of its creation without the necessity of any other action by, or consideration from, any of the Parties. Company accepts such assignment, grant and conveyance. Consultant agrees to provide Company, at Company’s expense, all assistance required to vest or perfect Company’s exclusive ownership of the same and to cooperate with Company and do all acts requested by Company to evidence, establish, apply for, procure, register, record, maintain, enforce and defend Company’s ownership rights on a prompt basis, but in any event within such time period(s) as required to enable Company to timely preserve or assert its rights in any country or region of the world. Consultant agrees to comply with all reasonable requests from Company related to securing, protecting, enforcing and defending Company’s rights in the Inventions, including, without limitation, executing additional documents and/or instruments as reasonably requested by the Company, at the Company’s expense, beyond that specifically provided for in this Agreement. Consultant represents and warrants that she has the right to grant the foregoing rights.

 

c. Consultant agrees that all Inventions and all other business, technical and financial information (including, without limitation, computer programs, technical drawings, algorithms, know-how, trade secrets, formulas, processes, ideas, inventions (whether patentable or copyrightable not), improvements, schematics, customer lists and customer information, suppliers and supplier information, pricing information, product development, sales and marketing plans and strategies, personnel information, and other technical, business, financial, customer and product information), Consultant learns, develops or obtains in connection with the Services or that are received by or for Consultant in confidence, constitute “Proprietary Information.” Consultant shall hold in confidence and not disclose or, except in performing the Services, use any Proprietary Information. However, Consultant shall not be obligated under this Section 2(c) with respect to information (i) that is or becomes readily publicly available without restriction other than as a result of disclosure by the Consultant, (ii) is or becomes available to the Consultant on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company or its affiliates or any of their respective representatives, or (iii) that the Consultant is legally required to disclose pursuant to a subpoena, interrogatory, civil investigative demand or similar process. Upon termination or as otherwise requested by Company, Consultant will promptly return to Company all items and copies containing or embodying Proprietary Information, except that Consultant may keep Consultant’s personal copies of Consultant’s compensation records and this Agreement. Consultant also recognizes and agrees that Consultant has no expectation of privacy with respect to Company’s telecommunications, networking or information processing systems (including, without limitation, stored computer files, email messages and voice messages), and that Consultant’s activity, and any files or messages, on or using any of those systems may be monitored at any time without notice.

 

d. If any part of the Services or Inventions is based on, incorporates, or is an improvement or derivative of, or cannot be reasonably and fully made, used, reproduced, distributed and otherwise exploited without using or violating technology or intellectual property rights owned or licensed by Consultant and not assigned hereunder, Consultant hereby grants Company and its successors a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicensable right and license to exploit and exercise all such technology and intellectual property rights in support of Company’s exercise or exploitation of the Services, Inventions, other work performed hereunder, or any assigned rights (including any modifications, improvements and derivatives of any of them).

e. Consultant represents that its performance of all terms of this Agreement as a consultant of Company has not breached and will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information, knowledge or data acquired by Consultant prior or subsequent to the commencement of Consultant’s consultant relationship with Company, and Consultant will not disclose to Company, or use, any inventions, confidential or non-public proprietary information or material belonging to any previous client, employer or any other party. Consultant will not induce Company to use any inventions, confidential or non-public proprietary information or material belonging to any previous client, employer or any other party. Prior to the disclosure of any information that would constitute material non-public information of the company within the meaning of U.S. federal securities laws (“MNPI”), Company agrees to first notify Consultant that it desires to share information that may be considered MNPI in connection with providing the Services (“Pre-Notice”), and following receipt of such Pre-Notice, Consultant will either confirm her ability to receive such information or advise the Company that she is not able to receive such MNPI at such time and the expected date upon which she may receive such MNPI.

 

f. Consultant recognizes that Company has received and, in the future, will receive confidential or proprietary information from third parties subject to a duty on Company’s part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. Consultant agrees to treat such information as Proprietary Information in accordance with and to the same extent required by Section 2(c) hereof and not to use it except as necessary in carrying out Consultant’s work for Company.

 

3. Warranty and other Obligations.

 

a. Consultant warrants that: (i) the Services will be performed according to standards and procedures established or approved by the Parties or otherwise consistent with the highest professional standards; (ii) all work under this Agreement shall be Consultant’s original work and none of the Services or Inventions nor any development, use, production, distribution or exploitation thereof will infringe, misappropriate or violate any intellectual property or other right of any person or entity (including, without limitation, Consultant); (iii) Consultant has the full right to allow itself to provide Company with the assignments and rights provided for herein and, in addition, Consultant will have each person who may be involved in any way with, or have any access to, any Services or Proprietary Information enter into (prior to any such involvement or access) a binding agreement for Company’s benefit that contains provisions at least as protective as those contained herein; (iv) Consultant shall comply with all applicable laws and Company safety rules in the course of performing the Services; (v) Consultant shall comply with all policies and procedures of the Company of which Consultant has knowledge through the training or otherwise provided to Consultant by the Company; and (vi) if Consultant’s work requires a professional license, Consultant has obtained that license and the license is in full force and effect.

 

b. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Consultant shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Company and all of its directors, officers, employees and agents from and against all claims, losses, injury, damage, withholdings and legal liability, including attorney’s fees and litigation costs, caused by the gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of Consultant or Consultant’s employees, contractors and agents. Such indemnity shall extend to all claims, losses, injury, damage, and legal liability arising from or related to any infringement or violation of any patent, copyright, trade secret, license or other property or contractual right of any third party.

c. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Company shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Consultant and all of its members, directors, officers, employees and agents from and against all claims, losses, injury, damage, withholdings and legal liability, including attorney’s fees and litigation costs (“Losses”), caused by (i) the gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of Company, Company’s affiliates or their employees, contractors and agents, and (ii) the activities conducted by Consultant on behalf of Company in connection with the performance of the Services in accordance to this Agreement; except to the extent such Losses fall within the scope of indemnification obligations of Consultant under Section 3(b) above. Such indemnity shall extend to all claims, losses, injury, damage, and legal liability arising from or related to any infringement or violation of any patent, copyright, trade secret, license or other property or contractual right of any third party.

 

4. Term and Termination. This Agreement shall commence upon the Effective Date and shall continue in effect until (a) terminated pursuant to this Section 4 or (b) one year after the Effective Date, whichever is first to occur (the “Term”). The Company or the Consultant may, at each such party’s option and upon written notice provided to the other party at least 60 days prior to the end of any Term, extend the Term for up to an additional one-year period upon the other party’s written acceptance of such extension. Company may terminate this agreement at any time without notice if Consultant breaches a material provision of this Agreement and such breach has not been cured within 30 days following written notice or email notice of such purported breach sent by the Company to Consultant, if such breach is capable of being cured. Company also may terminate this Agreement at any time, upon 30 calendar days written or email notice, but Company shall upon such termination pay Consultant all unpaid, undisputed amounts due for the Services completed prior to the notice of such termination provided, however, if this Agreement is terminated by the Company prior to the six (6)-month anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Guaranteed Period”) for any reason other than the gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of Consultant or Consultant’s employees, contractors and agents, or Consultant’s willful refusal or failure to substantially perform the Services (each, “Company Good Reason”), the Advisory Fee due and owing for the remainder of the Guaranteed Period shall be payable according to the Advisory Fee payment schedule set forth in the Statement of Work.

Any termination by Consultant due to any of the reasons specified in subsections (ii) through (iv) shall be referred to as “Consultant Good Reason”. In the event of a termination of this Agreement by Consultant for a Consultant Good Reason, the Advisory Fee payable for the remainder of the Guaranteed Period shall be payable according to the Advisory Fee payment schedule set forth in the Statement of Work. Sections 2 through 12 of this Agreement and any remedies for breach of this Agreement shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement. Company may communicate the obligations contained in this Agreement to any other (or potential) client or employer of Consultant.

 

5. Relationship of the Parties; Independent Contractor; No Employee Benefits. Notwithstanding any provision hereof, Consultant is an independent contractor, and neither Consultant nor any Consultant Personnel is an employee, agent, partner or joint venture of Company, and neither Consultant nor any Consultant Personnel shall bind or attempt to bind Company to any contract. Consultant shall accept any reasonable and lawful directions issued by Company pertaining to the goals to be attained and the results to be achieved by Consultant’s provision of the Services hereunder, but Consultant shall be solely responsible for the manner and hours in which the Services are performed under this Agreement. This Agreement shall not entitle Consultant nor any Consultant Personnel to participate in any of Company’s employee benefit plans, fringe benefit programs, group insurance arrangements or similar programs. This Agreement shall not entitle Consultant to any workers’ compensation, disability insurance, Social Security or unemployment compensation coverage or any other statutory benefit to Consultant or any Consultant personnel from the Company. Consultant will be solely responsible for the performance of all Consultant Personnel, for compensating such Consultant Personnel, and for complying with all laws and regulations applicable to its relationships with such Consultant Personnel. Without limiting the foregoing, Consultant shall comply at Consultant’s expense with all applicable provisions of workers’ compensation laws, unemployment compensation laws, federal Social Security law, the Fair Labor Standards Act, federal, state and local income tax laws, and all other applicable federal, state and local laws, regulations and codes relating to terms and conditions of employment required to be fulfilled by employers or independent contractors. All fees payable to Consultant do not include any taxes and Company is not liable for any taxes that Consultant is legally obligated to pay. Consultant agrees to indemnify Company from all claims, damages, liability, settlement, attorneys’ fees and expenses, as incurred, because of the foregoing or any breach of this Section 5. If the law requires Company to withhold taxes from payments to Consultant, Company may withhold those taxes and pay them to the appropriate taxing authority. If Consultant is an entity, it will ensure its employees and agents are bound in writing to Consultant’s obligations under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction located within the State of Colorado, County of Denver for preliminary or interim equitable relief, or to compel arbitration in accordance with this paragraph, without breach of this arbitration provision.

14. Miscellaneous. This Agreement sets forth the entire and exclusive understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and merges all prior and contemporaneous agreements or understandings, whether written or oral, with respect to its subject matter. Any breach of Section 2, 3, 8 or 9 will cause irreparable harm to Company for which damages would not be an adequate remedy, and therefore, Company will be entitled to injunctive relief with respect thereto in addition to any other remedies. The failure of either Party to enforce its rights under this Agreement at any time for any period shall not be construed as a waiver of such rights. No changes or modifications or waivers to this Agreement will be effective unless in writing and signed by both Parties. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. In any action or proceeding to enforce rights under this Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover costs and attorneys’ fees. Headings herein are for convenience of reference only and shall in no way affect interpretation of the Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

EXHIBIT A

 

Form of Statement of Work

 

This Statement of Work is issued under and subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Consulting Agreement dated as of March 12, 2024, by and between Company and Consultant.

 

SERVICES

 

Company hereby engages Consultant as an advisor to management with respect to her knowledge and expertise on an as-needed basis regarding the transition of the management of the Company’s financial reporting function to ensure continuity of business operations during the Term (“Advisory Services”).

 

In addition, Consultant will also assist Company on an as needed basis with the preparation and filing of Company’s public company financial reporting and compliance matters including accounting, payroll, audit and tax compliance functions (the “Financial Preparation Services”, together with the Advisory Services, the “Services”).

 

Consultant shall be responsible for providing the Services during the Term to Brooke Martellaro, or the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, who shall be Consultant’s primary point of contact, or such other persons as Company may specify during the term of this Agreement. The Services will be based, in whole or in part, upon information made available by Company to Consultant during this engagement.

 

FEES / EXPENSES

 

Advisory Fees. In exchange for the Advisory Services, Company shall pay to Consultant an amount equal to $83,333 per month (the “Advisory Fee”), for the six month period following the Closing Date. The Advisory Fee, to the extent earned, shall be paid as follows:

 

(a) The first fifty percent (50%) of the earned Advisory Fee shall become payable upon the closing of a financing (whether a registered offering or private unregistered offering) in which the Company sells Qualifying Securities (as defined below) and receives an amount of gross proceeds that when added to the proceeds of previous sales of Qualifying Securities following the closing of the Contemplated Transaction equals $5 million (respectively, the “First Financing” and the “Qualifying Financing Amount”). As used herein, “Qualifying Securities” means any debt or equity securities other than debt or equity securities having a maturity date or a redemption right at the option of the holder of fewer than six (6) months following the issuance of that security.

 

(b) The remaining fifty percent (50%) of the earned Advisory Fee shall become payable upon the earlier of (i) the closing of a subsequent financing in which the Company receives an amount of gross proceeds that when added to the proceeds of previous sales of Qualifying Securities following the First Financing aggregates to at least $5 million or (ii) June 30, 2024 (“Earned Date”).

 

(c) Following the Earned Date, the payable amount of the Advisory Fee shall be paid in cash in three (3) equal monthly installments, beginning on July 1, 2024, and on the first day of each month thereafter until paid in full.

 

8


 

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Company is unable to raise a minimum of $5 million from the sale of Qualifying Securities as of June 30, 2024, Consultant shall work with the Company as necessary to amend the foregoing Advisory Fee payment schedule to ensure that the Company will have sufficient cash to support its operations.

 

(e) Notwithstanding anything contrary above, if the Company or any subsidiary of the Company pays cash bonuses related to the closing of the Transaction to the Company’s or such subsidiary’s employees or individual service providers, any then-unpaid earned Advisory Fee shall be paid to Consultant on an accelerated basis pursuant to a payment schedule that is substantially similar to the bonus payment schedule for such other bonuses.

 

Other Fees and Expenses: In exchange for the Financial Preparation Services, Company shall pay to Consultant an hourly fee in the amount of $300 per hour, billed in half hour increments. Company will reimburse Consultant for out of pocket expenses reasonably incurred by Consultant in connection with the performance of the Services. Consultant shall submit an invoice to the Company on the first day of each calendar month setting forth a description of the Services performed, hours expended, and such other fees and expenses (if any) for the prior month. Company will accept invoice by email to primary point of contact. Invoice payments of such other fees and expenses will be made within fifteen (15) business days after the date of invoice.

 

TIMELINE / COMPLETION DATE

 

Services will commence on the Effective Date and will remain in effect during the Term unless terminated earlier in accordance with the provisions of the Consulting Agreement.

Except as otherwise provided on Schedule 3, nothing in this Section 3(c) shall require the Committee to grant equity to any Participant identified on Schedule 3.

 

 

 

Amendment to

Inpixon Transaction Bonus Plan

 

 

 


 

(e) Section 4(a) of the Plan is hereby amended to add the following new subparagraph (iv):

 

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 4(a)(i) or (ii) above, any amount(s) payable to a Participant pursuant to Section 3(a) or Section 3(b) of the Plan in connection with the Closing Date that occurs upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger Agreement”) by and among XTI Aircraft Company, a Delaware corporation (“XTI”), Superfly Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Merger Sub”), and the Company providing for the merger of the Merger Sub with and into XTI, whereupon the separate corporate existence of the Merger Sub shall cease and XTI shall be the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”) shall become payable to the Participant, subject to the consummation of the XTI Merger as follows:

 

(1) The first fifty percent (50%) of any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3(a) or Section 3(b) of the Plan for each Participant, as applicable (the “First Fifty Percent”), shall become earned upon the earlier of closing of a financing (whether a registered offering or private unregistered offering) in which the Company sells Qualifying Securities (as defined below) and receives an amount of gross proceeds that when added to the proceeds of previous sales of Qualifying Securities following the closing of the Merger equals $5 million (the “First Financing”) or June 30, 2024 (the “Earned Date”). As used herein, “Qualifying Securities” means any debt or equity securities other than debt or equity securities having a maturity date or a redemption right at the option of the holder of fewer than six (6) months following the issuance of that security.

 

(2) The remaining fifty percent (50%) of any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3(a) or Section 3(b) (the “Remaining Fifty Percent”) will be earned upon the earlier of the closing of a subsequent financing in which the Company receives an amount of gross proceeds that when added to the proceeds of previous sales of Qualifying Securities following the First Financing aggregates to at least $5 million (“Subsequent Financing”) or the Earned Date.

 

(3) Following the Earned Date, the First Fifty Percent will be paid in three (3) equal monthly installments, beginning on July 1, 2024, and on the first day of each month thereafter until the First Fifty Percent is paid in full. The Remaining Fifty Percent will be paid in three (3) equal monthly installments, beginning October 1, 2024 and on the first day of each month thereafter until the Remaining Fifty Percent is paid in full.

 

(4) A Participant’s right to receive payment of the First Fifty Percent or the Second Fifty Percent is subject to the Participant’s continuing employment or other service with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates until the date on which the payment is earned (as specified in clause (1) or (2) above); provided, however, that if a Participant’s employment or service with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates terminates before the applicable payment is earned due to the involuntary termination of the Participant other than for Cause, such Participant will be deemed for this purpose to continue in employment or service with the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates following the Participant’s termination date until the date the applicable payment is earned. For purposes of this Section 4(a)(iv)(4), the term “Company” includes Grafiti LLC.

 

 

 

Amendment to

Inpixon Transaction Bonus Plan

 

2


 

(5) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Company is unable to raise a minimum of $5 million from the sale of Qualifying Securities as of June 30, 2024, the Participants hereby designate and appoint the Participant Representative (defined below) to work with the Company as necessary to amend the payment schedule set forth in this Section 4(a) to ensure that the Company will have sufficient cash to support its operations. For this purpose the “Participant Representative” shall initially be Nadir Ali. If Nadir Ali cannot or refuses to serve the Participant Representative, then the Participant Representative shall be selected by the Company from among the other Participants entitled to receive any payment pursuant to Section 3(a) or Section 3(b) of the Plan.

 

(6) Notwithstanding anything contrary in this Section 4(a)(iv), if the Company or XTI pays cash bonuses related to the closing of the Merger to the Company’s or XTI’s employees or individual service providers who are not Participants (“Non-Plan Transaction Bonuses”), any then-unpaid payments to Participants pursuant to Section 3(a) or Section 3(b) shall be paid on an accelerated basis pursuant to a payment schedule that is substantially similar to the bonus payment schedule for the Non-Plan Transaction Bonuses. Conversely, if the Company agrees to an accelerated payment or more favorable payment terms of amounts payable pursuant to Section 3(a) or Section 3(b), all recipients of Non-Plan Transaction Bonuses shall receive similar treatment.

 

(f) Schedule 2 of the Plan is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

 

Schedule 2

 

Participant Schedule 2 Bonus
Nadir Ali The amount (not less than zero dollars)
equal to (a) 3.5% multiplied by the
Transaction Value, minus (b) $6,000,000
   
Wendy Loundermon The amount (not less than zero dollars)
equal to (a) 0.5% multiplied by the
Transaction Value, minus (b) $500,000

 

(g) Schedule 3 of the Plan is hereby amended to provide that:

 

(i) Nadir Ali shall receive an award (the “Award”) of fully vested shares of Company common stock (“Shares”) issued under the Inpixon 2018 Employee Stock Incentive Plan or any successor equity incentive plan adopted by the Company (the “Equity Plan”) on the date that is three (3) months following the Closing (the “Grant Date”) covering a number of shares having a fair market value (based on the closing price per Share on the Grant Date) equal to $1,023,600. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Nadir Ali shall not be eligible to receive the Award if his Consulting Agreement with the Company dated as of March 12, 2024 (the “Consulting Agreement”), terminates before the Grant Date due to (a) Company Good Reason (as defined in the Consulting Agreement) or (b) termination by Nadir Ali for any reason other than Consultant Good Reason (as defined in the Consulting Agreement).

 

(ii) Any amounts payable to any Participant in cash pursuant to the Plan, may be paid in Shares under the Equity Plan upon written agreement of the Company and such Participant.

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent disclosure of Confidential Information as may be required by applicable law or regulation, or pursuant to the valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or an authorized government agency, provided that the disclosure does not exceed the extent of disclosure required by such law, regulation, or order. I shall promptly provide written notice of any such order to an authorized officer of the Company within two (2) business days of receiving such order, but in any event sufficiently in advance of making any disclosure to permit the Company to contest the order or seek confidentiality protections, as determined in the Company’s sole discretion. Further, I acknowledge and understand that nothing in this Release prevents me from discussing or disclosing information about unlawful acts in the workplace, such as harassment or discrimination or any other conduct that I have reason to believe is unlawful.

 

11. Return of Company Property. I covenant and agree to promptly return to the Company all Company property including but not limited to Confidential Information that remain in my possession or control.
