(iii) Mechanics of Delivery.

(1) General. Chanticleer shall be responsible for all fees and expenses of its transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) and all fees and expenses with respect to the delivery of Exchange Shares issued in exchange of Additional Common Shares and transfer of such shares to each Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC, if any, including, without limitation, for same day processing. Chanticleer’s obligations to cause the Transfer Agent to deliver and transfer Exchange Shares issued in exchange of Additional Common Shares to the Buyers in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions hereof and the Securities Escrow Agreement are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by such Buyer to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event will any Exchange Shares issued in exchange of Additional Common Shares be delivered with any restrictive legends or any restrictions or limitations on resale by the Buyers. If Chanticleer and/or the Transfer Agent requires any legal opinions with respect to the delivery of any Exchange Shares issued in exchange of Additional Common Shares without restrictive legends or the removal of any such restrictive legends, Chanticleer agrees to cause at its expense its legal counsel to issue any such legal opinions. Chanticleer hereby acknowledges and agrees that the holding period of any Exchange Shares issued in exchange of Additional Common Shares delivered hereunder for purposes of Rule 144 shall be deemed to have commenced on the Closing Date. For purposes of this Agreement, “Person” means an individual, a limited liability company, a partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a trust, an unincorporated organization and a government or any department or agency thereof.

(2) Chanticleer’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities. If Chanticleer shall fail for any reason or for no reason to credit such Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC on the applicable Additional Exchange Shares Delivery Date for such number of Exchange Shares issued in exchange of shares of Chanticleer Common Stock to which such Buyer is entitled under Section 1(c)(ii) (a “Delivery Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to such Buyer, Chanticleer shall pay in cash to such Buyer on each day after such Additional Exchange Shares Delivery Date that Chanticleer shall fail to credit such Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC for the number of shares of Chanticleer Common Stock to which such Buyer is entitled pursuant to Chanticleer’s obligation pursuant to clause (ii) below, an amount equal to 1.5 % of the product of (A) the number of Exchange Shares not issued to such Buyer on or prior to the applicable Additional Exchange Shares Delivery Date and to which the Buyer is entitled, and (B) any trading price of the Chanticleer Common Stock selected by the Buyer in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the applicable Additional Exchange Shares Delivery Date and ending on the date Chanticleer makes the applicable cash payment, and if on or after such Trading Day such Buyer (or any Person in respect of, or on behalf, of such Buyer) purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Chanticleer Common Stock related to the applicable Delivery Failure, then, in addition to all other remedies available to such Buyer, Chanticleer shall, within two (2) Trading Days after such Buyer’s request and in such Buyer’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to such Buyer in an amount equal to such Buyer’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Chanticleer Common Stock so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point Chanticleer’s obligation to credit such Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC for such shares of Chanticleer Common Stock shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to credit such Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC and pay cash to such Buyer in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Chanticleer Common Stock, multiplied by (B) any trading price of the Chanticleer Common Stock selected by such Buyer in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the applicable Additional Exchange Shares Delivery Date and ending on the date of such delivery and payment under this Section 1(c)(iii)(2). Nothing shall limit any Buyer’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to Chanticleer’s failure to timely electronically deliver shares of Chanticleer Common Stock as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

(3) Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of the Additional Common Shares to the Escrow Agent and subsequent delivery of the Exchange Shares issued in exchange thereof to the Buyers shall be made without charge to the Buyers for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of such issuance and transfer, all of which taxes (other than the Buyers’ income taxes) and expenses shall be paid by Chanticleer, and the Exchange Shares issued in exchange of such Additional Common Shares shall be delivered in the name of the respective Buyer or in such name or names as may be directed by the respective Buyer.

(4) Closing of Books. Neither Sonnet nor Chanticleer will close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of such Buyer’s rights with respect to the Exchange Shares issued in exchange of the Additional Common Shares.

(iv) Blocker. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Chanticleer shall not deliver Exchange Shares issued in exchange of Additional Common Shares, and no Buyer shall have the right to receive Exchange Shares issued in exchange of Additional Common Shares, and any such delivery shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such delivery, such Buyer together with its other Attribution Parties (as defined in the Warrants) would beneficially own in excess of such percentage corresponding to the checked box on such Buyer’s signature page attached hereto (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of shares of Chanticleer Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such delivery. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of shares of Chanticleer Common Stock beneficially owned by such Buyer and the other Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Chanticleer Common Stock held by such Buyer and all other Attribution Parties plus the number of Exchange Shares issued in exchange of Additional Common Shares delivered to such Buyer pursuant to Section 1(c) hereof with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Chanticleer Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, unexercised portion of the Warrants beneficially owned by such Buyer or any of the other Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of Chanticleer beneficially owned by such Buyer or any of the other Attribution Parties (including, without limitation, any convertible notes or convertible preferred stock or warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein. For purposes of this Section 1(c)(iv), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”). For purposes of determining the number of outstanding shares of Chanticleer Common Stock that the Buyers may receive without exceeding the Maximum Percentage, the Buyers may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Chanticleer Common Stock as reflected in (1) Chanticleer’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (2) a more recent public announcement by Chanticleer or (3) any other written notice by Chanticleer or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Chanticleer Common Stock outstanding (the “Reported Outstanding Share Number”). If Chanticleer receives a Capacity Notice from such Buyer at a time when the actual number of outstanding shares of Chanticleer Common Stock is less than the Reported Outstanding Share Number, Chanticleer shall promptly notify the Buyers in writing of the number of shares of Chanticleer Common Stock then outstanding and, to the extent that such Capacity Notice would otherwise cause a Buyer’s beneficial ownership, as determined pursuant to this Section 1(c)(iv), to exceed the Maximum Percentage, such Buyer must notify Chanticleer of a reduced number of Exchange Shares issued in exchange of Additional Common Shares to be delivered pursuant to such Capacity Notice. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of a Buyer, Chanticleer shall within one (1) Business Day confirm in writing or by electronic mail to such Buyer the number of shares of Chanticleer Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Chanticleer Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of Chanticleer, including the Warrants held by each Buyer and the other Attribution Parties since the date as of which the Reported Outstanding Share Number was reported. In the event that the delivery of Exchange Shares issued in exchange of Additional Common Shares to such Buyer results in such Buyer and the other Attribution Parties being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Maximum Percentage of the number of outstanding shares of Chanticleer Common Stock (as determined under Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act), the number of shares so delivered by which such Buyer’s and the other Attribution Parties’ aggregate beneficial ownership exceeds the Maximum Percentage (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and such Buyer shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. If a Buyer’s right to receive Exchange Shares issued in exchange of Additional Common Shares is limited, in whole or in part, by this Section 1(c)(iv), all such Exchange Shares issued in exchange of Additional Common Shares that are so limited shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of such Buyer by the Escrow Agent until the earlier to occur of the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the Closing Date and such time as such Buyer notifies Chanticleer that its right thereto would not result in such Buyer exceeding the Maximum Percentage and Chanticleer shall promptly but in any event within two (2) Trading Days after the delivery of such Capacity Notice deliver to such Buyer the Exchange Shares issued in exchange of such Additional Common Shares. Upon delivery of a written notice to Chanticleer, each Buyer may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% as specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first (61^st) day after such notice is delivered to Chanticleer and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to such Buyer and the other Attribution Parties and not to any of the other Buyers that is not an Attribution Party of such Buyer. For purposes of clarity, the Exchange Shares issued in exchange of the Additional Common Shares deliverable pursuant to the terms hereof in excess of the Maximum Percentage shall not be deemed to be beneficially owned by such Buyer for any purpose including for purposes of Section 13(d) or Rule 16a-1(a)(1) of the 1934 Act. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 1(c)(iv) to the extent necessary to correct this paragraph or any portion of this paragraph which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation contained in this Section 1(c)(iv) or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitation contained in this paragraph may not be waived and shall apply to a successor of such Buyer. As used herein, “Business Day” means any day other than Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks in The City of New York are authorized or required by law to remain closed.

(d) Warrant Closing. The time of the Warrant Closing shall be 10:00 a.m., New York City time on the tenth (10^th) Trading Day immediately following the Closing Date (the “Warrant Closing Date”), at the offices of Schulte Roth & Zabel LLP, 919 Third Avenue, New York, New York 10022. The Warrant Closing may also be undertaken remotely by electronic transfer of Warrant Closing documentation.

(e) Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Common Shares and the related Warrants to be purchased by each Buyer pursuant to this Agreement shall be the amount set forth opposite such Buyer’s name in column (5) of the Schedule of Buyers (the “Purchase Price”).

(f) Form of Payment. On the Closing Date, (i) each Buyer shall pay its respective Purchase Price (less, in the case of [ ] (the “Lead Investor”), any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 5(h)) to Sonnet for the Common Shares and the Warrants to be issued and sold to such Buyer pursuant to this Agreement by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with Sonnet’s written wire instructions; provided, however, that with respect to Chardan Capital Markets, LLC (“Chardan”), its Purchase Price shall be deemed paid by virtue of the services provided by Chardan to Sonnet and Chanticleer as contemplated by that certain Omnibus Amendment to Letter Agreements dated as of February 7, 2020, and the Agreements referenced therein, and (ii) Sonnet shall deliver to each Buyer the number of Initial Common Shares such Buyer is purchasing as is set forth opposite such Buyer’s name in column (3) of the Schedule of Buyers. On the Warrant Closing Date, Chanticleer shall deliver to each Buyer (x) a Series A Warrant pursuant to which such Buyer shall have the right to acquire an initial amount of shares of Chanticleer Common Stock equal to seventy-five (75%) percent of the quotient determined by dividing the Purchase Price paid by such Buyer on the Closing Date, by the Final Per Share Price, and (y) a Series B Warrant pursuant to which such Buyer shall have the right to acquire Series B Warrant Shares in accordance with its terms and conditions, in each case duly executed on behalf of Chanticleer and registered in the name of such Buyer or its designee.

2. BUYER’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each Buyer, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants with respect to only itself to each of Sonnet and Chanticleer that, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date:

3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SONNET.

Sonnet represents and warrants to each of the Buyers that, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date:

(a) Organization and Qualification. Each of Sonnet and its “Sonnet Subsidiaries” (which for purposes of this Agreement means any entity in which Sonnet, directly or indirectly, owns any of the capital stock or holds an equity or similar interest) are entities duly organized and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which they are formed, and have the requisite power and authorization to own their properties and to carry on their business as now being conducted and as presently proposed to be conducted. Each of Sonnet and each of the Sonnet Subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign entity to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a Sonnet Material Adverse Effect. As used in this Agreement, “Sonnet Material Adverse Effect” means any material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, liabilities, operations, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Sonnet and the Sonnet Subsidiaries, individually or taken as a whole, or on the transactions contemplated hereby or on the other Sonnet Transaction Documents (as defined below) or by the agreements and instruments to be entered into in connection herewith or therewith, or on the authority or ability of Sonnet to perform any of its obligations under any of the Sonnet Transaction Documents (as defined below). Sonnet has no Sonnet Subsidiaries except as set forth in Schedule 3(a). The outstanding shares of capital stock of each of the Sonnet Subsidiaries have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and non-assessable and are owned by Sonnet or another Sonnet Subsidiary free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and equities and claims; and no options, warrants or other rights to purchase, agreements or other obligations to issue or other rights to convert any obligations into shares of capital stock or ownership interests in the Sonnet Subsidiaries are outstanding.

(b) Authorization; Enforcement; Validity. Sonnet has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Securities Escrow Agreement, the Lock-Up Agreements (as defined in Section 8(xi)), the Leak-Out Agreements (as defined in Section 8(xx)) and each of the other agreements entered into by Sonnet in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Sonnet Transaction Documents”) and to issue the Common Shares in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Sonnet Transaction Documents by Sonnet and the consummation by Sonnet of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Common Shares, have been duly authorized by Sonnet’s Board of Directors and (other than the filing of a Form D with the SEC and any other filings as may be required by any state securities agencies), no further filing, consent or authorization is required by Sonnet, its Board of Directors or its stockholders. This Agreement and the other Sonnet Transaction Documents have been duly executed and delivered by Sonnet, and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of Sonnet, enforceable against Sonnet in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies.

(c) Issuance of Common Shares. The issuance of the Common Shares is duly authorized and, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of the Sonnet Transaction Documents, the Common Shares shall be validly issued and free from all preemptive or similar rights (except for those which have been validly waived prior to the date hereof), taxes, liens and charges and other encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and the Common Shares shall be fully paid and nonassessable with the holders being entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of Sonnet Common Stock. Assuming the accuracy of each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement, the offer and issuance by Sonnet of the Common Shares is exempt from registration under the 1933 Act.

(d) No Conflicts. Except as disclosed in Schedule 3(d), the execution, delivery and performance of the Sonnet Transaction Documents by Sonnet and any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries and the consummation by Sonnet of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Common Shares) will not (i) result in a violation of the Sonnet Certificate of Incorporation (as defined below) or Sonnet Bylaws (as defined below) or other organizational documents of Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries, any capital stock of Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries or the articles of association or bylaws of Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) in any respect under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including foreign, federal and state securities laws, rules and regulations) applicable to Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries is bound or affected, except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, as would not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Sonnet Material Adverse Effect.

(e) Consents. Except as disclosed in Schedule 3(e), Sonnet is not required to obtain any consent from, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with (other than the filing of a Form D with the SEC and any other filings as may be required by any state securities agencies), any court, governmental agency or any regulatory or self-regulatory agency or any other Person in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under or contemplated by the Sonnet Transaction Documents, in each case, in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof. All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and registrations which Sonnet is required to obtain pursuant to the preceding sentence have been obtained or effected on or prior to the Closing Date (or in the case of filings detailed above, will be made timely after the Closing Date).

(f) Acknowledgment Regarding Buyer’s Purchase of Securities. Sonnet acknowledges and agrees that each Buyer is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to the Sonnet Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and that, prior to the purchase of Securities hereunder, no Buyer is (i) an officer or director of Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries, (ii) an “affiliate” of Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries (as defined in Rule 144) or (iii) to the knowledge of Sonnet, a “beneficial owner” of more than 10% of the Sonnet Common Stock (as defined for purposes of Rule 13d-3 of the 1934 Act). Sonnet further acknowledges that no Buyer is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries (or in any similar capacity) with respect to the Sonnet Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and any advice given by a Buyer or any of its representatives or agents in connection with the Sonnet Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby is merely incidental to such Buyer’s purchase of the Securities. Sonnet further represents to each Buyer that Sonnet’s decision to enter into the Sonnet Transaction Documents has been based solely on the independent evaluation by Sonnet and its representatives.

(g) No General Solicitation; Placement Agent’s Fees. Neither Sonnet, nor any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries or their affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D) in connection with the offer or sale of the Securities. Sonnet shall be responsible for the payment of any placement agent’s fees, financial advisory fees, or brokers’ commissions (other than for Persons engaged by any Buyer or its investment advisor) relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, placement agent fees payable to Chardan Capital Markets LLC (the “Placement Agent”) in connection with the sale of the Securities. Sonnet shall pay, and hold each Buyer harmless against, any liability, loss or expense (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees and out-of-pocket expenses) arising in connection with any such claim. Sonnet acknowledges that it has engaged the Placement Agent in connection with the sale of the Securities. Other than the Placement Agent, neither Sonnet nor any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries has not engaged any placement agent or other agent in connection with the offer or sale of the Securities.

(h) No Integrated Offering. None of Sonnet, the Sonnet Subsidiaries, their affiliates, nor any Person acting on their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would require registration of the issuance of any of the Securities under the 1933 Act, whether through integration with prior offerings or otherwise, or cause this offering of the Securities to require approval of stockholders of Sonnet for purposes of the 1933 Act or any applicable stockholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any exchange or automated quotation system on which any of the securities of Chanticleer are listed or designated for quotation. None of Sonnet, the Sonnet Subsidiaries, their affiliates nor any Person acting on their behalf will take any action or steps that would require registration of the issuance of any of the Securities under the 1933 Act or cause the offering of any of the Securities to be integrated with other offerings for purposes of any such applicable stockholder approval provisions.

(i) Application of Takeover Protections; Rights Agreement. Sonnet and its board of directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, interested stockholder, business combination, poison pill (including, without limitation, any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Sonnet Certificate of Incorporation, Sonnet Bylaws or other organizational documents or the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation which is or could become applicable to any Buyer as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, Sonnet’s issuance of the Common Shares and any Buyer’s ownership of the Securities. Sonnet and its Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any stockholder rights plan or similar arrangement relating to accumulations of beneficial ownership of Sonnet Common Stock or a change in control of Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries.

(j) S-4; Financial Statements. As of the dates of the filing of the Form S-4, including any amendments thereto, the sections of the Form S-4 titled “Risk Factors – Risks Relating to Sonnet’s Business and Stock Ownership in Sonnet,” “Sonnet Business,” “Sonnet Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Certain Relationships and Related-Party Transactions – Sonnet” and “Principal Stockholders of Sonnet,” at the time the Form S-4 or such amendment thereto was filed with the SEC, did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. As of each filing date of the Form S-4 or any amendment thereto, the financial statements of Sonnet included in the Form S-4 complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), consistently applied during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto, or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of Sonnet and the Sonnet Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments which will not be material, either individually or in the aggregate). No other information provided by or on behalf of Sonnet to any of the Buyers which is not included in the Form S-4 (including, without limitation, information referred to in Section 2(d) of this Agreement or in the disclosure schedules to this Agreement) contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstance under which they are or were made, not misleading.

(k) Absence of Certain Changes. Except as disclosed in Schedule 3(k)(i), since September 30, 2019, there has been no material adverse change and no material adverse development in the business, assets, liabilities, properties, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations or prospects of Sonnet or the Sonnet Subsidiaries. Except as disclosed in Schedule 3(k)(ii), since September 30, 2019, neither Sonnet nor any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries have (i) declared or paid any dividends, (ii) sold any assets, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $100,000 outside of the ordinary course of business or (iii) had capital expenditures, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of $100,000. Neither Sonnet nor any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries has taken any steps to seek protection pursuant to any law or statute relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, liquidation or winding up, nor does Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries have any knowledge or reason to believe that any of its creditors intend to initiate involuntary bankruptcy proceedings or any actual knowledge of any fact which would reasonably lead a creditor to do so. Sonnet and the Sonnet Subsidiaries, individually and on a consolidated basis, are not as of the date hereof, and, after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby to occur at the Closing, will not be Insolvent (as defined below). For purposes of this Agreement, “Insolvent” means, with respect to any Person, (i) the present fair saleable value of such Person’s assets is less than the amount required to pay such Person’s total Indebtedness (as defined below), (ii) such Person is unable to pay its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured, (iii) such Person intends to incur or believes that it will incur debts that would be beyond its ability to pay as such debts mature or (iv) such Person has unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which it is engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be conducted.

(l) No Undisclosed Events, Liabilities, Developments or Circumstances. No event, liability, development or circumstance has occurred or exists, or is contemplated to occur with respect to Sonnet, the Sonnet Subsidiaries or their respective business, properties, prospects, operations or financial condition, that would be required to be disclosed by Sonnet under applicable securities laws on a registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC relating to an issuance and sale by Sonnet of Sonnet Common Stock and which has not been publicly announced.

(m) Conduct of Business; Regulatory Permits. Neither Sonnet nor any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries is in violation of any term of or in default under the Sonnet Certificate of Incorporation, any certificate of designations, preferences or rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock of Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries, the Sonnet Bylaws or their organizational charter or memorandum of association or certificate of incorporation or articles of association or bylaws, respectively. Neither Sonnet nor any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries is in violation of any judgment, decree or order or any statute, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries, and neither Sonnet nor any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries will conduct its business in violation of any of the foregoing, except in all cases for possible violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Sonnet Material Adverse Effect. Sonnet and the Sonnet Subsidiaries possess all certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate foreign, federal or state regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses, except where the failure to possess such certificates, authorizations or permits would not have, individually or in the aggregate, a Sonnet Material Adverse Effect, and neither Sonnet nor any such Sonnet Subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate, authorization or permit. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except as set forth in Schedule 3(m), Sonnet has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances that would reasonably lead to delisting or suspension of the Chanticleer Common Stock by the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Principal Market”) in the foreseeable future.

True, correct and complete copies of Sonnet’s certificate of incorporation, as amended and as in effect on the date hereof (the “Sonnet Certificate of Incorporation”), and Sonnet’s bylaws, as amended and as in effect on the date hereof (the “Sonnet Bylaws”), and the terms of all securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, Sonnet Common Stock and the material rights of the holders thereof in respect thereto shall be provided to the Buyers on the Closing Date.

(r) Indebtedness and Other Contracts. Neither Sonnet nor any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries, (i) except as disclosed in Schedule 3(r)(i), has any outstanding Indebtedness (as defined below), (ii) except as disclosed in Schedule 3(r)(ii), is a party to any contract, agreement or instrument, the violation of which, or default under which, by the other party(ies) to such contract, agreement or instrument would reasonably be expected to result in a Sonnet Material Adverse Effect, (iii) except as disclosed in Schedule 3(r)(iii), is in violation of any term of, or in default under, any contract, agreement or instrument relating to any Indebtedness, except where such violations and defaults would not result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Sonnet Material Adverse Effect, or (iv) except as disclosed in Schedule 3(r)(iv), is a party to any contract, agreement or instrument relating to any Indebtedness, the performance of which, in the judgment of Sonnet’s officers, has or is expected to have a Sonnet Material Adverse Effect. Schedule 3(r) provides a detailed description of the material terms of such outstanding Indebtedness. For purposes of this Agreement: (x) “Indebtedness” of any Person means, without duplication (A) all indebtedness for borrowed money, (B) all obligations issued, undertaken or assumed as the deferred purchase price of property or services (including, without limitation, “capital leases” in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied during the periods involved) (other than trade payables entered into in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice), (C) all reimbursement or payment obligations with respect to letters of credit, surety bonds and other similar instruments, (D) all obligations evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures or similar instruments, including obligations so evidenced incurred in connection with the acquisition of property, assets or businesses, (E) all indebtedness created or arising under any conditional sale or other title retention agreement, or incurred as financing, in either case with respect to any property or assets acquired with the proceeds of such indebtedness (even though the rights and remedies of the seller or bank under such agreement in the event of default are limited to repossession or sale of such property), (F) all monetary obligations under any leasing or similar arrangement which, in connection with GAAP, consistently applied for the periods covered thereby, is classified as a capital lease, (G) all indebtedness referred to in clauses (A) through (F) above secured by (or for which the holder of such Indebtedness has an existing right, contingent or otherwise, to be secured by) any mortgage, claim, lien, tax, right of first refusal, pledge, charge, security interest or other encumbrance upon or in any property or assets (including accounts and contract rights) owned by any Person, even though the Person which owns such assets or property has not assumed or become liable for the payment of such indebtedness, and (H) all Contingent Obligations in respect of indebtedness or obligations of others of the kinds referred to in clauses (A) through (G) above; and (y) “Contingent Obligation” means, as to any Person, any direct or indirect liability, contingent or otherwise, of that Person with respect to any indebtedness, capital lease, dividend or other obligation of another Person if the primary purpose or intent of the Person incurring such liability, or the primary effect thereof, is to provide assurance to the obligee of such liability that such liability will be paid or discharged, or that any agreements relating thereto will be complied with, or that the holders of such liability will be protected (in whole or in part) against loss with respect thereto.

(s) Absence of Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of Sonnet, threatened against or affecting Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries, the Sonnet Common Stock or any of the Sonnet Subsidiary’s capital stock or any of Sonnet’s or any of the Sonnet Subsidiary’s officers or directors, whether of a civil or criminal nature or otherwise, in their capacities as such, except as set forth in Schedule 3(s). The matters set forth in Schedule 3(s) would not reasonably be expected to have a Sonnet Material Adverse Effect.

(t) Insurance. Sonnet and each of the Sonnet Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as management of Sonnet believes to be prudent and customary in the businesses in which Sonnet and the Sonnet Subsidiaries are engaged. Neither Sonnet nor any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries has been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for and neither Sonnet nor any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries has any reason to believe that it will be unable to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not have a Sonnet Material Adverse Effect.

(u) Employee Relations. Neither Sonnet nor any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries is a party to any collective bargaining agreement or employs any member of a union. Sonnet and the Sonnet Subsidiaries believe that their relations with their respective employees are good. No executive officer (as defined in Rule 501(f) promulgated under the 1933 Act) or other key employee of Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries has notified Sonnet or any such Sonnet Subsidiary that such officer intends to leave Sonnet or any such Sonnet Subsidiary or otherwise terminate such officer’s employment with Sonnet or any such Sonnet Subsidiary. No executive officer or other key employee of Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant, and the continued employment of each such executive officer or other key employee (as the case may be) does not subject Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. Sonnet and the Sonnet Subsidiaries are in compliance with all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations respecting labor, employment and employment practices and benefits, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where failure to be in compliance would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Sonnet Material Adverse Effect.

(v) Title. Sonnet and the Sonnet Subsidiaries have good and marketable title in fee simple to all real property and good and marketable title to all personal property owned by them which is material to the business of Sonnet and the Sonnet Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and defects except such as do not materially affect the value of such property and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by Sonnet and any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries. Any real property and facilities held under lease by Sonnet and any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by Sonnet and the Sonnet Subsidiaries.

(w) Intellectual Property Rights. Sonnet and the Sonnet Subsidiaries own or possess adequate rights or licenses to use all trademarks, trade names, service marks, service mark registrations, service names, patents, patent rights, copyrights, original works of authorship, inventions, licenses, approvals, governmental authorizations, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights and all applications and registrations therefor (“Intellectual Property Rights”) necessary to conduct their respective businesses as now conducted. Each of the patents owned by Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries is listed on Schedule 3(w)(i). Except as set forth in Schedule 3(w)(ii), none of Sonnet’s or any of the Sonnet’s Subsidiaries’ Intellectual Property Rights have expired, terminated or been abandoned, or are expected to expire, terminate or be abandoned, within three years from the date of this Agreement. Sonnet has no knowledge of any infringement by Sonnet or the Sonnet Subsidiaries of Intellectual Property Rights of others. There is no claim, action or proceeding being made or brought, or to the knowledge of Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries, being threatened, against Sonnet or any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries regarding their Intellectual Property Rights. Neither Sonnet nor any of the Sonnet Subsidiaries is aware of any facts or circumstances which might give rise to any of the foregoing infringements or claims, actions or proceedings. Sonnet and the Sonnet Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of their Intellectual Property Rights.

(x) Environmental Laws. Sonnet and the Sonnet Subsidiaries (A) are in compliance with all Environmental Laws (as defined below), (B) have received all permits, licenses or other approvals required of them under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct their respective businesses and (C) are in compliance with all terms and conditions of any such permit, license or approval where, in each of the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the failure to so comply could be reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Sonnet Material Adverse Effect. The term “Environmental Laws” means all federal, state, local or foreign laws relating to pollution or protection of human health or the environment (including, without limitation, ambient air, surface water, groundwater, land surface or subsurface strata), including, without limitation, laws relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases of chemicals, pollutants, contaminants, or toxic or hazardous substances or wastes (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”) into the environment, or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of Hazardous Materials, as well as all authorizations, codes, decrees, demands or demand letters, injunctions, judgments, licenses, notices or notice letters, orders, permits, plans or regulations issued, entered, promulgated or approved thereunder.

(y) Subsidiary Rights. Sonnet or one of the Sonnet Subsidiaries has the unrestricted right to vote, and (subject to limitations imposed by applicable law) to receive dividends and distributions on, all capital securities of the Sonnet Subsidiaries as owned by Sonnet or such Sonnet Subsidiary.

(z) Tax Status. Sonnet and each of the Sonnet Subsidiaries (i) has timely made or filed all foreign, federal and state income and all other tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject, (ii) has timely paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns, reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith and (iii) has set aside on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply.

Based on the consolidated financial condition of Chanticleer as of the Closing Date, after giving effect to the receipt by Sonnet of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder: (i) the fair saleable value of Chanticleer’s assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of Chanticleer’s existing debts and other liabilities (including known contingent liabilities) as they mature, (ii) Chanticleer’s assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted by Chanticleer, consolidated and projected capital requirements and capital availability thereof, and (iii) the current cash flow of Chanticleer, together with the proceeds Chanticleer would receive, were it to liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its liabilities when such amounts are required to be paid. Chanticleer does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt). Chanticleer has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which lead it to believe that it will file for reorganization or liquidation under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction within one year from the Closing Date. Schedule 4(aa) sets forth as of the date hereof all outstanding secured and unsecured Indebtedness of Chanticleer or any Chanticleer Subsidiary, or for which Chanticleer or any Chanticleer Subsidiary has commitments.

(ii) So long as such Buyer has paid its Purchase Price hereunder and has complied with the requirements set forth in Section 2.2 of the Merger Agreement, as applicable, if Chanticleer shall fail for any reason or for no reason to credit such Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC within two (2) Trading Days following the Closing Date (the “Merger Delivery Date”) the applicable Exchange Shares with respect to the Initial Common Shares to which such Buyer is entitled hereunder (a “Merger Delivery Failure”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to such Buyer, Chanticleer shall pay in cash to such Buyer on each day after such Merger Delivery Date that Chanticleer shall fail to credit such Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC for the number of shares of Chanticleer Common Stock to which such Buyer is entitled pursuant to the exchange of the Initial Common Shares for Chanticleer Common Stock pursuant to the Merger, an amount equal to 2.0% of the product of (A) the number of Exchange Shares with respect to the Initial Common Shares not delivered to such Buyer on or prior to the Merger Delivery Date and to which the Buyer is entitled, and (B) any trading price of the Chanticleer Common Stock selected by the Buyer in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the Merger Delivery Date and ending on the date Chanticleer makes the applicable cash payment, and if on or after such Trading Day such Buyer (or any Person in respect of, or on behalf, of such Buyer) purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Chanticleer Common Stock related to the applicable Merger Delivery Failure, then, in addition to all other remedies available to such Buyer, Chanticleer shall, within two (2) Trading Days after such Buyer’s request and in such Buyer’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to such Buyer in an amount equal to such Buyer’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Chanticleer Common Stock so purchased (the “Merger Buy-In Price”), at which point Chanticleer’s obligation to credit such Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC for such shares of Chanticleer Common Stock shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to credit such Buyer’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC and pay cash to such Buyer in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Merger Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Chanticleer Common Stock, multiplied by (B) any trading price of the Chanticleer Common Stock selected by such Buyer in writing as in effect at any time during the period beginning on the Merger Delivery Date and ending on the date of such delivery and payment under this Section 5(d)(ii). Nothing shall limit any Buyer’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity, including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to Chanticleer’s failure to timely electronically deliver shares of Chanticleer Common Stock as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

Chanticleer shall not amend, modify, waive or terminate any provision of any of the Leak-Out Agreements and shall enforce the provisions of each Leak-Out Agreement in accordance with its terms. If any officer or director that is a party to a Leak-Out Agreement breaches any provision of a Leak-Out Agreement, Chanticleer shall promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to seek specific performance of the terms of such Leak-Out Agreement.

(t) Variable Securities. Until the date that is three (3) years following the Closing Date, Sonnet, Chanticleer, each Sonnet Subsidiary and each Chanticleer Subsidiary shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any Subsequent Placement involving a Variable Rate Transaction other than with respect to the Common Stock Purchase Agreement dated August 6, 2019 between the Company GEM Global Yield Fund LLC SCS, as amended, provided that such Common Stock Purchase Agreement is not amended, modified or changed on or after the date hereof. “Variable Rate Transaction” means a transaction in which Sonnet, Chanticleer, any Sonnet Subsidiary or any Chanticleer Subsidiary (i) issues or sells any Convertible Securities either (A) at a conversion, exercise or exchange rate or other price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Sonnet Common Stock or Chanticleer Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such Convertible Securities, or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such Convertible Securities or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of Sonnet or Chanticleer or the market for the Sonnet Common Stock or Chanticleer Common Stock, other than pursuant to a customary “weighted average” anti-dilution provision or (ii) enters into any agreement (including, without limitation, an equity line of credit or an “at-the-market” offering) whereby Sonnet, Chanticleer, any Sonnet Subsidiary or any Chanticleer Subsidiary may sell securities at a future determined price (other than standard and customary “preemptive” or “participation” rights). Each Buyer shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against Sonnet, Chanticleer, the Sonnet Subsidiaries and the Chanticleer Subsidiaries to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages for an actual breach of this Section 5(s).

(u) [Reserved]

(v) Merger Agreement. Neither Sonnet nor Chanticleer shall amend or waive any of the terms of the Merger Agreement without the prior written consent of the Required Holders (as defined in Section 10(e)).

(w) Options and Convertible Securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Transaction Documents, neither Sonnet nor Chanticleer shall amend any Options or Convertible Securities after their respective issuance (whether such Options or Convertible Securities were issued on or prior to the date hereof or will be issued at any time after the date hereof, including, without limitation, pursuant to this Agreement), unless each holder of Series A Warrants as of the applicable date of determination consents to such amendment in writing prior to the effective date of such amendment.

(x) Closing Documents. On or prior to fourteen (14) calendar days after the Closing Date, Chanticleer agrees to deliver, or cause to be delivered, to each Buyer and Schulte Roth & Zabel LLP a complete closing set (which may be solely in electronic format) of the executed Transaction Documents, Securities and any other documents required to be delivered to any party pursuant to Section 8 hereof or otherwise.

6. REGISTER; TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.

(a) Register. Chanticleer shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of Chanticleer as it may designate by notice to each holder of Securities), a register for the Warrants in which Chanticleer shall record the name and address of the Person in whose name the Warrants have been issued (including the name and address of each transferee) and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants held by such Person. Chanticleer shall keep the register open and available at all times during business hours for inspection of any Buyer or its legal representatives.

(b) Transfer Agent Instructions. Chanticleer shall issue irrevocable instructions to its Transfer Agent, and any subsequent transfer agent, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E, (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”) to issue certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC, registered in the name of each Buyer or its respective nominee(s), for the Exchange Shares issued in exchange of the Additional Common Shares and the Warrant Shares upon delivery of a Capacity Notice or upon exercise of the Warrant, as applicable, in such amounts as specified from time to time by each Buyer to Chanticleer upon delivery of a Capacity Notice or upon exercise of the Warrants, as applicable. Chanticleer warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 6(b), and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 2(f) hereof, will be given by Chanticleer to its Transfer Agent, and that the Securities shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of Chanticleer as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. If a Buyer effects a sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities in accordance with Section 2(f), Chanticleer shall permit the transfer and shall promptly instruct its Transfer Agent to issue one or more certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC in such name and in such denominations as specified by such Buyer to effect such sale, transfer or assignment. In the event that such sale, assignment or transfer involves the Warrant Shares sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144, the Transfer Agent shall issue such Securities to the Buyer, assignee or transferee, as the case may be, without any restrictive legend. Chanticleer acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to a Buyer. Accordingly, Chanticleer acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 6(b) will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by Chanticleer of the provisions of this Section 6(b), that a Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

7. CONDITIONS TO SONNET’S OBLIGATION TO SELL AND CHANTICLEER’S OBLIGATION TO ISSUE.

10. MISCELLANEOUS.

(a) Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, 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 suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such 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 HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. In addition to, but not in limitation of, any other rights of a Buyer hereunder, if (a) this Agreement is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection of any indemnification or other obligation hereunder then outstanding or enforcement or any such obligation is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding or a Buyer otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under this Agreement or to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or (b) there occurs any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of Sonnet or Chanticleer or other proceedings affecting Sonnet’s or Chanticleer’s creditors’ rights and involving a claim under this Agreement, then Sonnet or Chanticleer, as applicable, shall pay the costs incurred by such Buyer for such collection, enforcement or action or in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other proceeding, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements.

(b) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party; provided that a facsimile or .pdf signature shall be considered due execution and shall be binding upon the signatory thereto with the same force and effect as if the signature were an original, not a facsimile or .pdf signature.

(c) Headings. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement.

(d) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

(e) Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between Sonnet, Chanticleer, their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf, on the one hand, and the Buyers, their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf, on the other hand, with respect to the matters discussed herein, and this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, none of Sonnet, Chanticleer nor any Buyer makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by Sonnet, Chanticleer and the Required Holders, and any amendment to this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 10(e) shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Securities, Sonnet and Chanticleer. No provisions hereto may be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. No such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it applies to less than all of the Buyers or holders of the applicable Securities then outstanding. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration (other than the reimbursement of legal fees) also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents, holders of Common Shares or holders of the Warrants, as the case may be. Neither Sonnet nor Chanticleer has, directly or indirectly, made any agreements with any Buyers relating to the terms or conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents except as set forth in the Transaction Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, each of Sonnet and Chanticleer confirms that, except as set forth in this Agreement, no Buyer has made any commitment or promise or has any other obligation to provide any financing to Sonnet or Chanticleer or otherwise. As used herein, “Required Holders” means (I) prior to the Closing Date, the Buyers entitled to purchase at the Closing a majority of the aggregate amount of Securities issued and issuable hereunder and under the Warrants (without regard to any restriction or limitation on the exercise of the Warrants or the delivery of the Exchange Shares issued in exchange of Additional Common Shares contained therein or herein) and shall include the Lead Investor and (II) on or after the Closing Date, holders of at least a majority of the aggregate amount of Securities issued and issuable hereunder and under the Warrants (without regard to any restriction or limitation on the exercise of the Warrants or the delivery of the Exchange Shares issued in exchange of Additional Common Shares contained therein or herein) as of the applicable time of determination and shall include the Lead Investor so long as the Lead Investor or any of its Affiliates holds any Securities.

(f) Notices. Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon delivery, when sent by facsimile (provided confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the sending party) or by electronic mail; (iii) upon delivery, when sent by electronic mail (provided that the sending party does not receive an automated rejection notice); or (iv) one (1) Business Day after deposit with an overnight courier service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same.

(g) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns, including any purchasers of the Common Shares or the Warrants. Neither Sonnet nor Chanticleer shall assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Required Holders, including by way of a Fundamental Transaction (unless Chanticleer is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions set forth in the Warrants and other than the Merger in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement). A Buyer may assign some or all of its rights hereunder without the consent of Sonnet or Chanticleer, in which event such assignee shall be deemed to be a Buyer hereunder with respect to such assigned rights.

(h) Third Party Beneficiaries. The Placement Agent shall be a third party beneficiary of the representations and warranties of the Buyers in Section 2, the representations and warranties of Sonnet in Section 3 and the representations and warranties of Chanticleer in Section 4. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except that each Indemnitee shall have the right to enforce the obligations of Sonnet and Chanticleer with respect to Section 10(k) and as otherwise set forth in this Section 10(h).

(i) Survival. Unless this Agreement is terminated under Section 9, the representations and warranties of Sonnet, Chanticleer and the Buyers contained in Sections 2, 3 and 4, and the agreements and covenants set forth in Sections 5, 6 and 10 shall survive the Closing. Each Buyer, and each of Sonnet and Chanticleer, shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder.

(j) Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(k) Indemnification. (i) In consideration of each Buyer’s execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of Sonnet’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents, Sonnet shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Buyer and each other holder of the Securities and all of their stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing Persons’ agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by Sonnet in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document of Sonnet contemplated hereby or thereby, (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of Sonnet contained in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document of Sonnet contemplated hereby or thereby or (c) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of Sonnet or Chanticleer) and arising out of or resulting from (i) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, (iii) any disclosure made by such Buyer pursuant to Section 5(j), or (iv) the status of such Buyer or holder of the Securities as an investor in Sonnet pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by Sonnet may be unenforceable for any reason, Sonnet shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the mechanics and procedures with respect to the rights and obligations under this Section 10(k)(i) shall be the same as those set forth in Section 6 of the Registration Rights Agreement.

(ii) In consideration of each Buyer’s execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of Chanticleer’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents, Chanticleer shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnitees from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by Chanticleer in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of Chanticleer contained in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby or (c) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of Sonnet or Chanticleer) and arising out of or resulting from (i) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, (iii) any disclosure made by such Buyer pursuant to Section 5(j), or (iv) the status of such Buyer or holder of the Securities as an investor in Chanticleer pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by Chanticleer may be unenforceable for any reason, Chanticleer shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the mechanics and procedures with respect to the rights and obligations under this Section 10(k)(ii) shall be the same as those set forth in Section 6 of the Registration Rights Agreement.

(l) No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.

(m) Remedies. Each Buyer and each holder of the Securities shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have under any law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law. Furthermore, each of Sonnet and Chanticleer recognizes that in the event that it fails to perform, observe, or discharge any or all of its obligations under the Transaction Documents, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Buyers. Each of Sonnet and Chanticleer therefore agrees that the Buyers shall be entitled to seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security.

(n) Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever any Buyer exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and either Sonnet or Chanticleer does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Buyer may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to Sonnet or Chanticleer, as applicable, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

(o) Payment Set Aside. To the extent that Sonnet or Chanticleer makes a payment or payments to the Buyers hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or the Buyers enforce or exercise their rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to Sonnet or Chanticleer, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, foreign, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

(p) Independent Nature of Buyers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Buyer under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Buyer, and no Buyer shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Buyer under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Buyer pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Buyers as, and each of Sonnet and Chanticleer acknowledges that the Buyers do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Buyers are in any way acting in concert or as a group, and neither Sonnet nor Chanticleer shall assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and each of Sonnet and Chanticleer acknowledges that the Buyers are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each of Sonnet and Chanticleer acknowledges and each Buyer confirms that it has independently participated in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each Buyer shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Buyer to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
