CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

$____________   

June, 2021

Atlanta, GA

For value received MOBILEWALLA, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Payoror the Company”), promises to pay to GCP Capital Partners IV, L.P. or its assigns (“Holder”) the principal sum of $1,226,893.00 with simple interest on the outstanding principal amount at the rate of 10% per annum. Interest shall commence with the date such amount is advanced to the Company and shall continue on the outstanding principal until paid in full or converted. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days for the actual number of days elapsed.

1. This convertible promissory note (the “Note”) is issued as part of a series of substantially identical notes issued in a series of multiple closings before, on or after the date hereof (collectively, the “Notes”) to certain persons and entities (collectively, the “Holders”). The Company shall maintain a ledger of all Holders. “Majority Holders” mean the holders of Notes representing at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.

2. All payments of interest and principal shall be in lawful money of the United States of America and shall be made pro rata among all Holders in accordance with the relative principal amounts of their respective Notes. Subject to the next sentence, all payments shall be applied first to accrued interest until all then outstanding accrued interest has been paid in full, and thereafter to the repayment of principal until all principal has been paid in full. Each of the Notes shall rank equally without preference or priority of any kind over one another, and all payments and recoveries shall be paid and applied ratably and proportionately on all outstanding Notes on the basis of their original principal amount.

3. In the event that Payor issues and sells shares of its Equity Securities (as defined below) to investors (the “Investors”) in an equity financing with total proceeds to the Payor of not less than $10,000,000 (excluding the conversion of the Notes or other debt), or such lesser amount as may be approved in writing by the Majority Holders (a “Qualified Financing”), then the sum of the entire outstanding principal balance and accrued but unpaid interest (the “Balance”) of this Note (and all outstanding Notes) shall automatically convert without any further action by the Holders into such Equity Securities on the same terms and conditions as applicable to the Investors and at a conversion price equal to the Conversion Price (as defined below). The number of Equity Securities to be issued upon conversion of the principal and accrued interest of this Note shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share. For purposes of this Note, the term “Equity Securities” shall mean the series of Payor’s Preferred Stock issued in the Qualified Financing. For purposes of this Note, the term “Conversion Price” means an amount equal to (i) 80% of the Qualified Financing price if the Qualified Financing occurs on or prior to the six-month anniversary of this Note, (ii) 75% of the Qualified Financing price if the Qualified Financing occurs after the six-month anniversary and on or prior to the 12-month anniversary of this Note, or (iii) 70% of the Qualified Financing price if the Qualified Financing occurs after the 12-month anniversary. The Equity Securities to be issued upon conversion of this Note shall be entitled to substantially the same rights and


preferences (including the benefit of any representations and warranties of the Company) as are provided for in the definitive documents entered into with investors in the Qualified Financing (the “Qualified Financing Agreements”) (subject to such differences as may be specified therein with respect to original issue price and per share liquidation preference (which will be based on the Conversion Price), and rights tied to certain ownership levels, directorships, observer rights and the like), and the Equity Securities to be issued upon conversion of this Note shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant to the Qualified Financing Agreements. In connection with a conversion to Equity Securities under this Section 3, Holder shall execute and become a party to the Qualified Financing Agreements and deliver to the Company this Note or, in the event this Note has been lost, stolen, or destroyed, certain documentation satisfactory to the Company with regard to a lost or stolen Note, including, if required by the Company, an affidavit of lost note and an indemnification agreement by Holder in favor of the Company with respect to such lost or stolen Note (“Lost Note Documentation”). The issuance of Equity Securities to Holder upon conversion of this Note shall constitute satisfaction in full of all obligations of the Company under this Note, and this Note shall thereafter be of no further force or effect.

4. In the event that the Note remains outstanding as of December 22, 2022 (as such date is extended from time to time in Holder’s sole discretion, the “Maturity Date”), the Holder may, at its own election, convert the then outstanding principal of the Note and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Note into fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s capital stock, the class, terms, and price of which will be mutually agreed by the Company and Holder at the Maturity Date.

5. In the event of a Change of Control (as defined below) prior to the earlier of (a) the repayment of the entire Balance of this Note or (b) the conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms of Sections 3 or 4 above, then the Holder of this Note shall be entitled to receive a payment at the closing of such Change of Control equal to the sum of (i) three hundred percent (300%) of the then outstanding principal amount of this Note and (ii) all accrued but unpaid interest on this Note through the date of the closing of the Change of Control (the “Change of Control Payment”). For purposes of this Note, the term “Change of Control” shall mean any transaction that is a “Deemed Liquidation Event” as defined in the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation. The Change of Control Payment shall be paid in cash or such other form of consideration, or combination thereof, as is paid to the Company’s stockholders in such Change of Control, and may be made by the Company (or any party to such Change of Control or its agent) following the Change of Control in connection with the payment procedures established in connection with such Change of Control. Any consideration other than cash shall be valued on the same basis as such consideration is valued for the Company’s stockholders in the Change of Control as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors.

6. Unless this Note has been converted in accordance with the terms of Sections 3 or 4 above, repaid in accordance with the terms Section 5 above, or prepaid in accordance with the terms of Section 8 below, the Company may not pay or prepay this Note (either before or after the Maturity Date) without the prior written consent of the Majority Holders.

7. In the event of any default hereunder, Payor shall pay all reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs incurred by Holder in enforcing and collecting this Note.

Holder represents and warrants to Company that Holder has full power and authority to enter into this Note.

(b) Purchase for Own Account. This Note, the Equity Securities, and Company’s Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Equity Securities (collectively, the “Securities”) are being and will be acquired for investment for Holder’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the public resale or distribution thereof within the meaning of the Act, and Holder has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same.

(c) No Solicitation. At no time was Holder presented with or solicited by any publicly issued or circulated newspaper, mail, radio, television or other form of general advertising or solicitation in connection with the offer, sale and purchase of the Securities.

(d) Disclosure of Information. Holder has received or has had full access to all the information Holder considers necessary or appropriate to make an informed investment decision with respect to the Securities. Holder further has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities and to obtain additional information (to the extent Company possessed such information or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense) necessary to verify any information furnished to Holder or to which Holder had access. The foregoing, however, does not in any way limit or modify the representations and warranties made by Company in Section 11 hereof.

(e) Investment Experience. Holder understands that the purchase of the Securities involves substantial risk. Holder (i) has experience as a Holder in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges that Holder is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of Holder’s investment in the Securities and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that Holder is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment in the Securities and protecting Holder’s own interests in connection with this investment in the Securities or (ii) has a preexisting personal or business relationship with Company and certain of its officers, directors or controlling persons of a nature and duration that enables Holder to be aware of the character, business acumen and financial circumstances of such persons.

4.


(f) Accredited Investor Status. Holder is familiar with the definition of, and qualifies as, an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated under the Act.

(g) Restricted Securities. Holder understands that the Securities are characterized as “restricted securities” under the Act and Rule 144 since they are being acquired from Company in a transaction not involving a public offering, and that under the Act and applicable regulations thereunder the Securities may be resold without registration under the Act only in certain limited circumstances. Holder further understands that Company is under no obligation to register the Securities, and Company has no present plans to do so. Furthermore, Holder is familiar with Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands the limitations imposed thereby and by the Act on resale of the Securities without such registration. Holder understands that, whether or not the Securities may be resold in the future without registration under the Act, no public market now exists for any of the Securities and that it is uncertain whether a public market will ever exist for the Securities.

there is then in effect a registration statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such effective registration statement; or

 

   

(i) Holder shall have notified Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and (ii) if reasonably requested by Company, Holder shall have furnished Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to Company that such disposition will not require registration of such shares under the Act. It is agreed that Company will not require opinions of counsel for transactions made pursuant to Rule 144 except in unusual circumstances.

Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) above, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by a Holder that is a partnership to a partner of such partnership or a retired partner of such partnership who retires after the date hereof, or to the estate of any such partner or retired partner or the transfer by gift, will or intestate succession of any partner to his or her spouse or to the siblings, lineal descendants or ancestors of such partner or his or her spouse, if the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the same extent as if he or she were the original Holder hereunder.

(i) Legends. In addition to any other legend that may be required by applicable law, Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, the Qualified Financing Agreements or any other agreement between Company and Holder, or applicable law, Holder understands and agrees that the certificates evidencing the Securities will bear legends substantially similar to those set forth below:
