Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term “Obligations” shall include, without limitation: (i) principal of, and interest on the Note and the loan(s) extended pursuant thereto; (ii) any and all other fees, indemnities, costs, obligations and liabilities of the Company from time to time under or in connection with this Agreement, the Note, and any other instruments, agreements or other documents executed and/or delivered in connection herewith or therewith; and (iii) all amounts (including but not limited to post-petition interest) in respect of the foregoing that would be payable but for the fact that the obligations to pay such amounts are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the Company.

 

2
 

 

(g) “Organizational Documents” means with respect to the Company, the documents by which the Company was organized (such as a certificate of incorporation, certificate of limited partnership or articles of organization, and including, without limitation, any certificates of designation for preferred stock or other forms of preferred equity) and which relate to the internal governance of the Company (such as bylaws, a partnership agreement or an operating, limited liability or members agreement).

(l) “UCC” means the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Delaware and or any other applicable law of any state or states that have jurisdiction with respect to all, or any portion of, the Collateral or this Agreement, from time to time. It is the intent of the parties that defined terms in the UCC should be construed in their broadest sense so that the term “Collateral” will be construed in its broadest sense. Accordingly if there are, from time to time, changes to defined terms in the UCC that broaden the definitions, they are incorporated herein and if existing definitions in the UCC are broader than the amended definitions, the existing ones shall be controlling.

2. Grant of Security Interest in Collateral. As an inducement for the Secured Party to extend the loan(s) as evidenced by the Note and to secure the complete and timely payment, performance and discharge in full, as the case may be, of all of the Obligations, the Company hereby unconditionally and irrevocably pledges, grants and hypothecates to the Secured Party a perfected, first priority security interest (subject only to Permitted Liens and any liens permitted under the Note or Asset Purchase Agreement) in and to, a lien upon and a right of set-off against all of their respective right, title and interest of whatsoever kind and nature in and to, the Collateral (a “Security Interest” and, collectively, the “Security Interests”).

 

3. Delivery of Certain Collateral. The Company shall deliver to the Secured Party or its agent such instruments or other items constituting Collateral only to the extent required under applicable law to perfect the Secured Party’s security interest therein. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) the Company shall not be required to deliver possession of equipment, inventory, books and records, or other operational assets in the ordinary course of business, and (b) except upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Company shall retain possession and control of the Collateral and shall be entitled to use, operate, and dispose of such Collateral in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Note, and the Asset Purchase Agreement. Any delivery of Collateral pursuant to this Section shall be made together with such endorsements or instruments of assignment as are reasonably necessary to effectuate such delivery and perfection, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Secured Party.

 

4. Representations, Warranties, Covenants, and Agreements of the Company. Except as set forth under the corresponding section of the disclosure schedules delivered to the Secured Party concurrently herewith (the “Disclosure Schedules”), which Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed a part hereof, the Company represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees with, the Secured Party as follows:

This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid, and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, and similar laws of general application relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and by general principles of equity.

In addition, the Company waives (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived) any and all rights that it may have to a judicial hearing in advance of the enforcement of any of the Agent’s rights and remedies hereunder, including, without limitation, its right following an Event of Default to take immediate possession of the Collateral and to exercise its rights and remedies with respect thereto.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company waives all claims, damages, and demands against the Secured Party arising out of the repossession, removal, retention, or sale of the Collateral, unless due solely to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Secured Party as determined by a final judgment (not subject to further appeal) of a court of competent jurisdiction.

Until so paid, any fees payable hereunder shall be added to the principal amount of the Note and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

 

12. Responsibility for Collateral. The Company assumes all liabilities and responsibility in connection with all Collateral, and the Obligations shall in no way be affected or diminished by reason of the loss, destruction, damage, or theft of any of the Collateral or its unavailability for any reason. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and except as required by applicable law, (a) neither the Agent nor any Secured Party (i) has any duty (either before or after an Event of Default) to collect any amounts in respect of the Collateral or to preserve any rights relating to the Collateral, or (ii) has any obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale, and (b) the Company shall remain obligated and liable under each contract or agreement included in the Collateral to be observed or performed by the Company thereunder.

13. Security Interests Absolute. All rights of the Secured Party and all obligations of the Company hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Note or any agreement entered into in connection with the foregoing, or any portion hereof or thereof, against any other The Company; (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment or performance of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Note or any other agreement entered into in connection with the foregoing; (c) any exchange, release or no perfection of any of the Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other collateral for, or any guarantee, or any other security, for all or any of the Obligations; (d) any action by the Secured Party to obtain, adjust, settle and cancel in its sole discretion any insurance claims or matters made or arising in connection with the Collateral; or (e) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute any legal or equitable defense available to the Company, or a discharge of all or any part of the Security Interests granted hereby. Until the Obligations shall have been paid and performed in full, the rights of the Secured Party shall continue even if the Obligations are barred for any reason, including, without limitation, the running of the statute of limitations. The Company expressly waives presentment, protest, notice of protest, demand, notice of nonpayment and demand for performance. In the event that at any time any transfer of any Collateral or any payment received by the Secured Party hereunder shall be deemed by final order of a court of competent jurisdiction to have been a voidable preference or fraudulent conveyance under the bankruptcy or insolvency laws of the United States, or shall be deemed to be otherwise due to any party other than the Secured Party, then, in any such event, the Company’s obligations hereunder shall survive cancellation of this Agreement, and shall not be discharged or satisfied by any prior payment thereof and/or cancellation of this Agreement, but shall remain a valid and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof. The Company waives all right to require the Secured Party to proceed against any other person or entity or to apply any Collateral which the Secured Party may hold at any time, or to marshal assets, or to pursue any other remedy. The Company waives any defense arising by reason of the application of the statute of limitations to any obligation secured hereby.

18. Appointment of Agent. The Secured Party hereby appoints itself to act as their agent (the “Agent”) for purposes of exercising any and all rights and remedies of the Secured Party hereunder. Such appointment shall continue until revoked in writing by a Majority-in-Interest, at which time a Majority in Interest shall appoint a new Agent, provided that the Agent may not be removed as Agent unless it consents thereto.

19. Miscellaneous.

 

(a) No course of dealing between the Company and the Secured Party, nor any failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Secured Party, any right, power, or privilege hereunder or under the Note shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege.

 

(b) All of the rights and remedies of the Secured Party with respect to the Collateral, whether established hereby or by the Note or by any other agreements, instruments, or documents or by law shall be cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently.

 

(c) This Agreement, together with the exhibits and schedules hereto, contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters, which the parties acknowledge have been merged into this Agreement and the exhibits and schedules hereto. No provision of this Agreement may be waived, modified, supplemented, or amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Company and the Secured Party or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such waived provision is sought.

 

16
 

 

(d) If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants, and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void, or unenforceable.

 

(e) No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition, or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.

 

(f) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The Company and the Guarantors may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Secured Party (other than by merger). Any Secured Party may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom such Secured Party assigns or transfers any Obligations, provided such transferee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred Obligations, by the provisions of this Agreement that apply to the “Secured Party.”

 

(g) Each party shall take such further action and execute and deliver such further documents as may be necessary or appropriate in order to carry out the provisions and purposes of this Agreement.

 

(h) Except to the extent mandatorily governed by the jurisdiction or situs where the Collateral is located, all questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement, and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Except to the extent mandatorily governed by the jurisdiction or situs where the Collateral is located, the Company agrees that all proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Note (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the state of New York. Except to the extent mandatorily governed by the jurisdiction or situs where the Collateral is located, the Company hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the state of New York, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such proceeding is improper. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

17
 

 

(i) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature were the original thereof.

 

(j) The Company shall solely be liable for the obligations of the Company to the Secured Party hereunder.

 

(k) The Company shall indemnify, reimburse and hold harmless the Agent and the Secured Party and their respective partners, members, shareholders, officers, directors, employees and agents (and any other persons with other titles that have similar functions) (collectively, “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, claims, liabilities, damages, penalties, suits, costs and expenses, of any kind or nature, (including fees relating to the cost of investigating and defending any of the foregoing) imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitee in any way related to or arising from or alleged to arise from this Agreement or the Collateral, except any such losses, claims, liabilities, damages, penalties, suits, costs and expenses which result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnitee as determined by a final, nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction. This indemnification provision is in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other indemnification provision in the Note, or any other agreement, instrument or other document executed or delivered in connection herewith or therewith.

 

(l) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to subject Agent or any Secured Party to liability as a partner in the Company or any if its direct or indirect subsidiaries that is a partnership or as a member in the Company or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries that is a limited liability company, nor shall Agent or any Secured Party be deemed to have assumed any obligations under any partnership agreement or limited liability company agreement, as applicable, of any the Company or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries or otherwise, unless and until any such Secured Party exercises its right to be substituted for the Company as a partner or member, as applicable, pursuant hereto.

 

(m) To the extent that the grant of the security interest in the Collateral and the enforcement of the terms hereof require the consent, approval or action of any partner or member, as applicable, of the Company or any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company or compliance with any provisions of any of the Organizational Documents, the Company hereby represent that all such consents and approvals have been obtained.

The duties of the Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; the Agent shall not have by reason of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of the Company or any Secured Party; and nothing in the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Agent any obligations in respect of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document except as expressly set forth herein and therein.

 

3. Lack of Reliance on the Agent. Independently and without reliance upon the Agent, each Secured Party, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Company and its subsidiaries in connection with such Secured Party’s investment in the Company, the creation and continuance of the Obligations, the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and the taking or not taking of any action in connection therewith, and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Company and its subsidiaries, and of the value of the Collateral from time to time, and the Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Secured Party with any credit, market or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before any Obligations are incurred or at any time or times thereafter. The Agent shall not be responsible to the Company or any Secured Party for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith, or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectability, priority or sufficiency of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or for the financial condition of the Company or the value of any of the Collateral, or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or the financial condition of the Company, or the value of any of the Collateral, or the existence or possible existence of any default or Event of Default under the Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Transaction Documents.

 

 
 

 

4. Certain Rights of the Agent. The Agent shall have the right to take any action with respect to the Collateral, on behalf of all of the Secured Party. To the extent practical, the Agent shall request instructions from the Secured Party with respect to any material act or action (including failure to act) in connection with the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, and shall be entitled to act or refrain from acting in accordance with the instructions of a Majority in Interest; if such instructions are not provided despite the Agent’s request therefor, the Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action, and if such action is taken, shall be entitled to appropriate indemnification from the Secured Party in respect of actions to be taken by the Agent; and the Agent shall not incur liability to any person or entity by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, (a) no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Agent as a result of the Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the terms of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, and the Company shall have no right to question or challenge the authority of, or the instructions given to, the Agent pursuant to the foregoing and (b) the Agent shall not be required to take any action which the Agent believes (i) could reasonably be expected to expose it to personal liability or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or applicable law.

 

5. Reliance. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, telex, teletype or facsimile, cablegram, radiogram, order or other document or telephone message signed, sent or made by the proper person or entity, and, with respect to all legal matters pertaining to the Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and its duties thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it and upon all other matters pertaining to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and its duties thereunder, upon advice of other experts selected by it. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, the Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Secured Party to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Company or is cared for, protected, or insured or that the liens granted pursuant to the Agreement have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority.

 

6. Indemnification. To the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Company, the Secured Party will jointly and severally reimburse and indemnify the Agent, in proportion to their initially purchased respective principal amounts of Notes, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in performing its duties hereunder or under the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or in any way relating to or arising out of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document except for those determined by a final judgment (not subject to further appeal) of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from the Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Prior to taking any action hereunder as Agent, the Agent may require each Secured Party to deposit with it sufficient sums as it determines in good faith is necessary to protect the Agent for costs and expenses associated with taking such action.

 

 
 

 

7. Resignation by the Agent.

 

(a) The Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties under the Agreement and the other Transaction Documents at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice (as provided in the Agreement) to the Company and the Secured Party. Such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Agent pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) below.

 

(b) Upon any such notice of resignation, the Secured Party, acting by a Majority in Interest, shall appoint a successor Agent hereunder.

 

(c) If a successor Agent shall not have been so appointed within said 30-day period, the Agent shall then appoint a successor Agent who shall serve as Agent until such time, if any, as the Secured Party appoint a successor Agent as provided above. If a successor Agent has not been appointed within such 30-day period, the Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction or may interplead the Company and the Secured Party in a proceeding for the appointment of a successor Agent, and all fees, including, but not limited to, extraordinary fees associated with the filing of interpleader and expenses associated therewith, shall be payable by the Company on demand.

 

8. Rights with respect to Collateral. Each Secured Party agrees with all other Secured Party and the Agent (i) that it shall not, and shall not attempt to, exercise any rights with respect to its security interest in the Collateral, whether pursuant to any other agreement or otherwise (other than pursuant to this Agreement), or take or institute any action against the Agent or any of the other Secured Party in respect of the Collateral or its rights hereunder (other than any such action arising from the breach of this Agreement) and (ii) that such Secured Party has no other rights with respect to the Collateral other than as set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges, and duties of the retiring Agent and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Agreement. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of the Agreement including this Annex B shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent.

(together with its permitted assigns, “KUST”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in that certain Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 24, 2026, by and between the parties hereto, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 and Forbearance / Extension Agreement dated July 23, 2026, and as may be further amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time (collectively, the “Asset Purchase Agreement”).

 

WHEREAS:

 

The Company and KUST have mutually agreed, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of an Asset Purchase Agreement and, to induce KUST to enter into the Asset Purchase Agreement and Amendment No. 1 and Forbearance / Extension Agreement to Asset Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to KUST shares of the Company’s Series H Preferred Stock having an aggregate stated value of $600,000 (the “Series H Preferred Stock”), the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), and applicable state securities laws.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and KUST hereby agree as follows:

 

1. DEFINITIONS.

 

As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

 

a. “Person” means any individual or entity, including, but not limited to, any corporation, limited liability company, association, partnership, organization, business, individual, governmental or political subdivision thereof, or governmental agency.

 

b. “Register,” “Registered,” and “Registration” refer to a registration effected by preparing and filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) of one or more registration statements of the Company in compliance with the Securities Act and/or pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act or any successor rule providing for the offering of securities on a delayed and continuous basis (“Rule 415”), and the such registration statement(s) taking effect under the Securities Act .

 

c. “Registrable Securities” means all of (i) the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of the Series H Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement and Amendment No. 1 and Forbearance / Extension Agreement thereto, (ii) all shares of Common Stock issued or issuable as payment of dividends on the Series H Preferred Stock, (iii) any additional shares of Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, and (iv) any and all shares of capital stock issued or issuable with respect to the foregoing securities as a result of any stock split, combination, stock dividend, recapitalization, exchange, reclassification or similar event.

 

 
 

 

d. “Registration Statement” means one or more registration statements of the Company on covering the resale of the Registrable Securities including the Initial Registration Statement and any New Registration Statement or Other Registration Statement (each as defined herein).

 

2. REGISTRATION.

 

a. Mandatory Registration. The Company shall, by the date that is sixty (60) calendar days following the Execution Date, file with the SEC an initial Registration Statement on Form S-1 or Form S-3 (to the extent the Company is eligible to use such form) covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities as shall be permitted to be included thereon in accordance with applicable SEC rules, regulations, and interpretations so as to permit the resale of such Registrable Securities by KUST, including, but not limited to, under Rule 415 at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices) (the “Initial Registration Statement”). The Initial Registration Statement shall register only Registrable Securities. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Initial Registration Statement and any amendment thereto declared effective by the SEC at the earliest possible date, but in no event later than ninety (90) calendar days following the Execution Date.

 

b. Rule 424 Prospectus. In addition to the Initial Registration Statement, the Company shall, as required by applicable securities regulations, from time to time file with the SEC, pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, such prospectuses and prospectus supplements, if any, to be used in connection with sales of the Registrable Securities under each Registration Statement. KUST and its counsel shall have a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon such prospectuses prior to its filing with the SEC, and the Company shall give due consideration to all such comments. KUST shall use its reasonable best efforts to comment upon any prospectus within two (2) business days from the date KUST receives the final pre-filing version of such prospectus.

 

c. Sufficient Number of Shares Registered. In the event the number of shares available under the Initial Registration Statement is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall amend the Initial Registration Statement or file a new Registration Statement (a “New Registration Statement”) so as to cover all of such Registrable Securities (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.e.) as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than ten (10) business days after the necessity therefor arises, subject to any limits that may be imposed by the SEC pursuant to Rule 415. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such amendment and/or New Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof. In the event that any of the Registrable Securities are not included in the Initial Registration Statement, or have not been included in any New Registration Statement, and the Company files any other registration statement under the Securities Act (other than on Form S-4, Form S-8, or with respect to other employee related plans or rights offerings), then the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to also include in such other registration statement such Registrable Securities that have not been previously Registered (such other registration statement that Registers Registrable Securities, an “Other Registration Statement”).

 

2
 

 

d. Effectiveness. KUST and its counsel shall have a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon any Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement and any related prospectus prior to its filing with the SEC, and the Company shall give due consideration to all reasonable comments. KUST shall furnish all information reasonably requested by the Company for inclusion therein. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep all Registration Statements effective, including, but not limited to, pursuant to Rule 415 and available for the resale by KUST of all of the Registrable Securities covered thereby at all times until the earlier of:

 

(i) the date as of which KUST may sell all of the Registrable Securities without any restrictions (including without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions) under Rule 144 or any other similar rule or regulation of the SEC (“Rule 144”); and

 

(ii) the date on which KUST shall have sold all the Registrable Securities covered thereby and no Registrable Securities remain issuable under the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Registration Period”).

 

In the event that any Registration Statement filed hereunder is no longer effective and Rule 144 is available for sales of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall provide an opinion upon request of KUST that KUST may sell any such Registrable Securities held by KUST pursuant to Rule 144 with all costs related to such opinion to be borne by the Company. Each Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.

 

e. Offering. If the staff of the SEC (the “Staff”) or the SEC seeks to characterize any offering pursuant to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement as constituting an offering of securities that does not permit such Registration Statement to become or remain effective and be used for resales by KUST under Rule 415 at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices), or, if after the filing of the Initial Registration Statement with the SEC pursuant to Section 2.a., the Company is otherwise required by the Staff or the SEC to reduce the number of Registrable Securities included in such initial Registration Statement, then the Company shall reduce the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such Initial Registration Statement (with the prior consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or denied of KUST and its legal counsel as to the specific Registrable Securities to be removed therefrom) until such time as the Staff and the SEC shall so permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used as aforesaid. In the event of any reduction in Registrable Securities pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall file one or more New Registration Statements in accordance with Section 2.c. until such time as all Registrable Securities have been included in Registration Statements that have been declared effective and the prospectuses contained therein are available for use by KUST. Notwithstanding any provision herein or in the Asset Purchase Agreement to the contrary, the Company’s obligations to register Registrable Securities (and any related conditions to KUST’s obligations) shall be qualified as necessary to comport with any requirement of the SEC or the Staff as addressed in this Section 2.e.. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be responsible for any delays in effectiveness caused by the SEC or the Staff.

f. Liquidated Damages. If: (i) the Initial Registration Statement is not filed in accordance with Section 2(a) above (if the Company files the Initial Registration Statement without affording KUST the opportunity to review (and, with respect to disclosure on KUST, to comment) on the same as required by Section 3(b) herein, the Company shall be deemed to have not satisfied this clause (i)), or (ii) the Company fails to file with the SEC a request for acceleration of a Registration Statement in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act, within five (5) Trading Days of the date that the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that such Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review, or (iii) a Registration Statement registering for resale all of the Registrable Securities is not declared effective by the SEC in accordance with Section 2.a. above, or (iv) after the effective date of a Registration Statement, such Registration Statement ceases for any reason to remain continuously effective as to all Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement, or KUST is otherwise not permitted to utilize the prospectus therein to resell such Registrable Securities, for more than thirty (30) consecutive calendar days or more than an aggregate of forty five (45) calendar days (which need not be consecutive calendar days) during any 12-month period (any such failure or breach being referred to as an “Event”, and for purposes of clauses (i) and (iii), the date on which such Event occurs, and for purpose of clause (ii) the date on which such five (5) Trading Day period is exceeded, and for purpose of clause (iv) the date on which such thirty (30) or forty five (45) calendar day period, as applicable, is exceeded being referred to as “Event Date”), then, in addition to any other rights KUST may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured or, if earlier, the Company shall pay to KUST an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to the product of 0.0025 multiplied by the Maximum Commitment Amount; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to make any payments with respect to Registrable Securities which may be freely tradable pursuant to Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act. The parties agree that the maximum aggregate liquidated damages payable to KUST under this Agreement shall be 12% of the Maximum Commitment Amount. If the Company fails to pay any partial liquidated damages pursuant to this Section in full within seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 12% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to KUST, accruing daily from the date such partial liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. The partial liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no liquidated damages shall accrue for any delay caused by the action or inaction of KUST or its representatives. “Maximum Commitment Amount” means the aggregate value of the Registrable Securities issued or issuable to KUST pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement and the Series H Preferred Stock, as determined based on the fair market value thereof as of the Execution Date.

 

3. RELATED OBLIGATIONS.

 

With respect to a Registration Statement and whenever any Registrable Securities are to be Registered pursuant to Section 2, including on any Other Registration Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and, pursuant thereto, the Company shall have the following obligations:

 

4
 

 

a. The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including post-effective amendments on Form S-1 or Form S-3) and supplements to any Registration Statement and any Other Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such Registration Statement and Other Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act, as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective at all times during the Registration Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company covered by the Registration Statement or applicable Other Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such registration statement.

 

b. The Company shall permit KUST to review and comment upon each Registration Statement or any Other Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto at least two (2) business days prior to their filing with the SEC, and not file any document in a form that includes disclosure relating specifically to KUST to which KUST reasonably objects; provided, however, that any delay in KUST or its counsel review of the Registration Statement beyond the two (2) business day period shall extend the deadlines set forth in Section 2.a. of this Agreement by such delay period. KUST shall use its reasonable best efforts to comment upon the Registration Statement or any Other Registration Statement and any amendments or supplements thereto within two (2) business days from the date KUST receives the final version thereof. The Company shall furnish to KUST, without charge, and within one (1) business day, any comments and/or any other correspondence from the SEC or the Staff to the Company or its representatives relating to the Registration Statement or any Other Registration Statement. The Company shall respond to the SEC or the Staff, as applicable, regarding the resolution of any such comments and/or correspondence as promptly as practicable and in any event within two weeks upon receipt thereof.

 

c. Upon request of KUST, the Company shall furnish to KUST, (i) promptly after the same is prepared and filed with the SEC, at least one copy of such Registration Statement and any amendment(s) thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits, (ii) upon the effectiveness of any Registration Statement, a copy of the prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such other number of copies as KUST may reasonably request), and (iii) such other documents, including copies of any preliminary or final prospectus, as KUST may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by KUST. For the avoidance of doubt, any filing available to KUST via the SEC’s live EDGAR system shall be deemed “furnished to KUST” hereunder.

 

5
 

 

d. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement under such other securities of New York, Delaware, and such other jurisdictions in the United States as KUST reasonably requests and is reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including post- effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3.d). (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. The Company shall promptly notify KUST who holds Registrable Securities of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.

 

e. As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event or facts, the Company shall notify KUST in writing of the happening of any event or existence of such facts as a result of which the prospectus included in any Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement to correct such untrue statement or omission, and deliver a copy of such supplement or amendment to KUST (or such other number of copies as KUST may reasonably request). The Company shall also promptly notify KUST in writing (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to KUST by e-mail or facsimile on the same day of such effectiveness and by overnight mail), (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to any Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, and (iii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate.

 

f. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of any registration statement, or the suspension of the qualification of any Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and to notify KUST of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose. In addition, if the Company shall receive any comment letter from the SEC relating to any Registration Statement under which Registrable Securities are Registered, the Company shall notify KUST of the issuance of such order and use its reasonable best efforts to address such comments in a manner satisfactory to the SEC.

 

g. The Company shall (i) cause all the Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed, if any, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under the rules of such exchange or (ii) secure designation and quotation of all the Registrable Securities on the Principal Market. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligation under this Section.

 

6
 

 

h. The Company shall cooperate with KUST to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of shares representing the Registrable Securities in book-entry form through The Depository Trust Company’s Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”), subject to the Company’s transfer agent procedures, applicable law, and the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement.

 

i. The Company shall at all times maintain the services of its Transfer Agent and registrar with respect to its Common Stock.

 

j. If reasonably requested by KUST, the Company shall (i) incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information relating solely to KUST as KUST reasonably requests to be included therein with respect to the sale and distribution of the Registrable Securities, including the number of Registrable Securities being sold and the purchase price and other terms of the offering, provided that such information is accurate and complete in all material respects and complies with applicable law; (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt of such information; and (iii) supplement or amend any Registration Statement as may be reasonably necessary to reflect such information.

 

k. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.

 

l. Within one (1) business day after any Registration Statement which includes Registrable Securities is declared effective by the SEC or otherwise takes effect, or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment including Registrable Securities is filed with the SEC, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver, to the Transfer Agent for such Registrable Securities (with copies to KUST) confirmation of the effectiveness of such Registration Statement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Thereafter, if requested by KUST at any time, the Company shall require its counsel to deliver to KUST a written confirmation whether or not (i) the effectiveness of such Registration Statement has lapsed at any time for any reason (including, without limitation, the issuance of a stop order), (ii) any comment letter has been issued by the SEC, and (iii) whether or not the Registration Statement is current and available to KUST for sale of all of the Registrable Securities.

 

m. The Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by KUST of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Registration Statement shall contain the “Selling Stockholder” and “Plan of Distribution” sections, each in substantially the form provided to the Company by KUST.

 

7
 

 

b. KUST agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of any Registration Statement hereunder.

 

c. KUST agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event or existence of facts of the kind described in Section 3(f) or the first sentence of Section 3(e), KUST will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until the withdrawal of any stop order contemplated by Section 3.f. or KUST’s receipt of copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus as contemplated by Section 3.e. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts, subject to applicable securities laws and the procedures of its transfer agent, to cause its transfer agent to issue shares of Common Stock in book-entry form through DWAC in respect of any sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to a binding contract of sale entered into prior to KUST’s receipt of such notice and for which settlement has not yet occurred.

 

5. EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION.

 

All reasonable Registration expenses, other than sales or brokerage commissions, incurred in connection with registrations, filings, or qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, including, without limitation, all Company registration, listing and qualifications fees, printers and accounting fees, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company (but not counsel for KUST) shall be paid by the Company.

 

6. INDEMNIFICATION.

 

a. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend KUST, each Person, if any, who controls or is under common control with KUST, the members, the directors, officers, partners, employees, agents, representatives of KUST, and each Person, if any, who is an “affiliate” of KUST within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs, attorneys’ fees, amounts paid in settlement, or expenses, joint or several, (collectively, “Claims”) incurred in investigating, preparing, or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation, or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative, or other regulatory agency, body, or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an Indemnified Person is or may be a party thereto (“Indemnified Damages”), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration Statement, any Other Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement or any Other Registration Statement, (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, “Violations”). The Company shall reimburse each Indemnified Person promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any reasonable legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6.a.: (i) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified Person arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information about KUST furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of a Registration Statement, any Other Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3.c. or Section 3.e.; (ii) with respect to any superseded prospectus, shall not inure to the benefit of any such person from whom the person asserting any such Claim purchased the Registrable Securities that are the subject thereof (or to the benefit of any person controlling such person) if the untrue statement or omission of material fact contained in the superseded prospectus was corrected in the revised prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, if such revised prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3.c. or Section 3.e., and the Indemnified Person was promptly advised in writing not to use the incorrect prospectus prior to the use giving rise to a violation and such Indemnified Person, notwithstanding such advice, used it; (iii) shall not be available to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of KUST to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company, if such prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3.c. or Section 3.e.; and (iv) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, denied, or conditioned. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by KUST pursuant to Section 9. The Company’s aggregate liability under this Section 6 shall not exceed the net proceeds that the Company receives from the issuance of the Registrable Securities.

b. KUST agrees (severally and not jointly) to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors and officers and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act), and each of their respective Affiliates, employees, directors, officers, trustees, agents, and Representatives (collectively, the “Company Indemnified Parties”), from and against any Losses resulting from (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which KUST’s Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act (including any final, preliminary or summary prospectus contained therein or any amendment or supplement thereto or any documents incorporated by reference therein, including any information deemed part of any prospectus pursuant to Rule 159 under the Securities Act), or (ii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is based upon information furnished in writing by KUST to the Company specifically for inclusion in such Registration Statement (including, without limitation, any written information provided for inclusion in the “Selling Stockholder” or “Plan of Distribution” sections) and was known by KUST to be untrue or misleading at the time it was furnished.

 

c. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this Section 6, deliver to the Company a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the Company shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the Company so desires, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the Company and to the Indemnified Person; provided, however, that an Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses to be paid by the Company, if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the Company, the representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person and the Company would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such Indemnified Person and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The Indemnified Person shall cooperate fully with the Company in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Claim by the Company and shall furnish to the Company all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Person which relates to such action or Claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Person fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, Claim or proceeding effectuated without its written consent; provided, however, that the Company shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. The Company shall not, without the consent of the Indemnified Person, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such Claim or litigation. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the Company shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Person with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the Company within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve the Company of any liability to the Indemnified Person under this Section 6, except to the extent that the Company is prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

 

d. The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.

 

e. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

7. CONTRIBUTION.

 

To the extent any indemnification by the Company is prohibited or limited by law, the Company agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however, that: (i) no seller of Registrable Securities guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation, and (ii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Registrable Securities.

 

8. REPORTS AND DISCLOSURE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACTS.

 

Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein to the contrary, during such times that the Registration Statement is not available for resales of Registrable Securities held by KUST, with a view to making available to KUST the benefits of Rule 144, the Company agrees, at the Company’s sole expense, to:

b. file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act;

d. take such additional action as is reasonably requested by KUST to enable KUST to sell the Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144, including, without limitation, delivering all such legal opinions, consents, certificates, resolutions, and instructions to the Company’s Transfer Agent as may be requested from time to time by KUST at the Company’s expense and otherwise fully cooperate with KUST and KUST’s broker to effect such sale of securities pursuant to Rule 144.

 

The Company agrees that damages may be an inadequate remedy for any breach of the terms and provisions of this Section 8 and that KUST shall, whether or not it is pursuing any remedies at law, be entitled to equitable relief in the form of a preliminary or permanent injunctions, without having to post any bond or other security, upon any breach or threatened breach of any such terms or provisions.

 

9. ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

 

The Company may not assign this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of KUST, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed; provided, however, that the Company may assign this Agreement without such consent to any successor entity in connection with a merger, consolidation, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets.

The Series H Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), and accrues dividends that may be paid in shares of Common Stock in accordance with its terms.

Very truly yours,

Exhibit 99.2

 

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

On August 3, 2026, Kustom Entertainment, Inc. (the “Company,” formerly Digital Ally, Inc.) closed an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Cycurion, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Cycurion”), whereby the Company agreed to sell and convey certain assets, and transfer certain liabilities, of its video solutions business (the “Video Solutions Business”), which develops, sells, licenses, supports and services video hardware, camera products, software and related solutions for law enforcement, public safety and commercial customers, to Cycurion. The transaction was structured as a sale of specific assets and an assumption of specified liabilities rather than a sale of a subsidiary; accordingly, no legal entity or equity interest was transferred. The Agreement was entered into on June 24, 2026, and was amended by Amendment No. 1 and Forbearance / Extension Agreement dated July 23, 2026 (the “Amendment”), and the transaction closed on August 3, 2026, with an effective date of June 30, 2026.

 

Under the Agreement, as amended, the Company agreed to sell and Cycurion agreed to purchase the Acquired Assets (as defined in the Agreement), and Cycurion agreed to assume certain specified liabilities, for the consideration and on the terms and conditions provided for in the Agreement, as amended. The transfer of the Acquired Assets and the assumption of the assumed liabilities are deemed to occur as of 11:59 p.m., New York time, on June 30, 2026. The Agreement, as amended, provides for the following consideration and principal terms:

 

A cash payment of One Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,250,000) paid to the Company, inclusive of the $250,000 non-refundable extension payment received on July 27, 2026 upon execution of the Amendment, which was credited against the aggregate purchase price at Closing.
   
A secured promissory note issued by the Buyer in the principal amount of Four Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($4,250,000) (the “Note”), bearing interest at 7% per annum, , for a term of three (3) years, with interest-only payments during the first six months followed by thirty (30) monthly installments of principal and interest, maturing three years from closing. The Note is secured by the assets acquired in the transaction and may be prepaid without penalty.
   
A symmetrical earn-out and clawback arrangement based on the post-closing revenue of the Video Solutions Business for the fiscal years ending December 31, 2026 and December 31, 2027. The Company may receive earn-out payments if revenue exceeds the applicable annual target ($5,500,000 for 2026 and $5,800,000 for 2027), and may be subject to a clawback (a reduction of the purchase price) if revenue falls more than 20% below target. The earn-out and clawback are each capped at $500,000 per year and $1,000,000 in the aggregate.
   
Series H Preferred Stock of Cycurion with an aggregate stated value of $600,000, issued pursuant to the Amendment in replacement of the two million (2,000,000) warrants originally contemplated by the Agreement, which were cancelled. The Series H Preferred Stock accrues cumulative dividends of 12.0% per annum payable quarterly in shares of Cycurion common stock, and is convertible at the holder’s option at $1.45 per share, subject to anti-dilution adjustments and a 9.99% beneficial ownership limitation. The Series H Preferred Stock carries a liquidation preference of stated value plus accrued dividends, class voting protections, registration rights for the underlying common shares, and a twelve (12) month leak-out on resales.

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements (“Unaudited Pro Forma Statements”) and explanatory notes are based on the Company’s historical condensed consolidated financial statements adjusted to give effect to the sale of the Video Solutions Business. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and for the year ended December 31, 2025 have been prepared with the assumption that the sale of the Video Solutions Business occurred as of January 1, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026 has been prepared with the assumption that the sale of the Video Solutions Business was completed as of the balance sheet date. The Unaudited Pro Forma Statements have been prepared by the Company based on assumptions deemed appropriate by the Company’s management. An explanation of pro forma adjustments is set forth in the notes hereto.

 

The Unaudited Pro Forma Statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and do not necessarily reflect what the Company’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the sale of the Video Solutions Business occurred on the date indicated. Additionally, the Unaudited Pro Forma Statements do not purport to project the future financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

 

The Unaudited Pro Forma Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as well as the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2026.
