A.           Gadsden previously issued to the Stockholders the type, series and number of shares of Gadsden capital stock identified on Schedule A (“the “Gadsden Shares”).

 

B.            On March 13, 2019, FC Global entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Gadsden, pursuant to which Gadsden agreed to transfer and assign to FC Global all of its general partnership interests and Class A limited partnership interests in Gadsden Growth Properties, L.P. in exchange for shares of the capital stock of FC Global (the “FC Global Shares”).

 

D.           At the request of Gadsden, FC Global desires to issue to each of the Stockholders the number of shares of FC Global Common Stock (the “New FC Global Shares”) set forth opposite such Stockholder’s name on Schedule A in consideration for (i) the cancellation by each such Stockholder of the Gadsden Shares identified as being cancelled by each such Stockholder on Schedule A and (ii) the cancellation by Gadsden of the type, series and number of FC Global Shares identified as being cancelled by Gadsden on Schedule A.

 

AGREEMENT

 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned do hereby agree as follows:

 

1.             Cancellation of Gadsden Shares. Each Stockholder hereby agrees to surrender the Gadsden Shares set forth opposite such Stockholder’s name on Schedule A to Gadsden free and clear of all claims, charges, liens, contracts, rights, options, security interests, mortgages, encumbrances and restrictions of every kind and nature, in each case, to the extent incurred by each such Stockholder or any of its assignees (collectively, “Claims”) for cancellation concurrently with, and against delivery of, the issuance of the number of New FC Global Shares set forth opposite each such Stockholders name on Schedule A (it being acknowledged that any rights of Gadsden to or with respect to any of the Gadsden Shares other than under this Agreement, shall not be a “Claim”). After such cancellation and receipt of the New FC Global Shares by each Stockholder or its assignees, each Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that all such Gadsden Shares shall no longer be outstanding, and no Stockholder shall have any further rights with respect to the Gadsden Shares or the equity ownership in Gadsden represented thereby. At the request of Gadsden and without further consideration, each Stockholder will execute and deliver such other instruments of sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment and confirmation as may be reasonably requested in order to effectively transfer, convey and assign the Gadsden Shares to Gadsden for cancellation.

 

2.             Cancellation of FC Global Shares.

After such cancellation and receipt by the Stockholders of the New FC Global Shares as provided for in Section 1 of this Agreement, Gadsden acknowledges and agrees that all such FC Global Shares identified on Schedule A as being cancelled shall no longer be outstanding, and Gadsden shall not have any further rights with respect such FC Global Shares or the equity ownership in FC Global represented thereby. At the request of FC Global and without further consideration, Gadsden will execute and deliver such other instruments of sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment and confirmation as may be reasonably requested in order to effectively transfer, convey and assign the FC Global Shares identified on Schedule A as being cancelled to Gadsden for cancellation.

Such Stockholder hereby represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from FC Global and its employees regarding the business, properties, prospects and financial condition of FC Global, including, without limitation, any strategic transaction, public securities offering, private financing transaction (whether equity or debt), merger, consolidation, recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization, change of control transaction, sale of assets or securities, liquidation or similar transaction which have been, are being or may be contemplated by FC Global.

Such Stockholder has no present intention of selling or otherwise disposing of all or any portion of the New FC Global Shares.

 

(m)       Such Stockholder understands that the New FC Global Shares are characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act, only in certain limited circumstances. It understands that the New FC Global Shares must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from registration is otherwise available. In this connection, such Stockholder represents that it is familiar with Rule 144, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act. In addition, it understands that the certificates evidencing the New FC Global Shares, if any, will be imprinted with a legend which prohibits the transfer of the New FC Global Shares unless they are registered or such registration is not required in an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to New FC Global.
