Entry Into Material Definitive Agreement

 

Convertible Note Purchase Agreement

 

On August 12, 2024, the Company entered into Convertible Note Purchase Agreements (the “CNPA”) with certain accredited investors (the “Investors”, and each an “Investor”) in connection with the issuance and sale of unsecured convertible notes (the “Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of up to $30,000,000 and at an aggregate purchase price of up to $27,600,000 in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Transaction”).

 

Pursuant to the CNPAs, on the Initial Closing Date, the Investors purchased Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $18,000,000. Investors may elect to purchase additional unsecured convertible notes in Additional Closings in the same form of the Notes in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $30,000,000 in connection with this transaction.

 

The CNPA contains customary representations and warranties, conditions to closing, termination provisions and indemnification obligations, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

Convertible Notes

 

Subject to a Ownership Limitation of 9.9% of the outstanding shares of the Company, each Investor has the right to elect to convert all or a portion of the outstanding balance under each of the Notes into ordinary shares of the Company pursuant to the following formula: conversion shares equal amount being converted divided by the conversion price (“Conversion Shares”), which is calculated as (A) the lowest market closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares in the 90 days preceding the date of conversion request (“Reference Price”) (B) multiplied by 70% and (C) rounded down to the nearest 2 decimal places. In addition, Investors have a right to Alternate Conversion. At any time during the term of the Initial Notes or Additional Notes (defined in the CNPA), Investors may at their option convert all or a portion of the outstanding balance under each of the Notes into Alternate Conversion Shares. Alternate Conversion Shares equal the amount being converted divided by the Alternate Conversion Price, calculated as the (A) Reference Price (B) multiplied by 40% and (C) rounded down to the nearest 2 decimal places. Alternate Conversion Shares are subject to an Alternate Conversion Share Lock Up of 360 days from the date of the issuance of any Alternate Conversion Shares. In addition, Investors shall not make a demand on the Company to register Alternate Conversion Shares. Any conversion is subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, or similar transaction.

 

The Notes are non-interest bearing. Upon occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Note), the interest rate shall accrue on the outstanding balance at the rate equal to 10% per annum. In the event of a default, Investors will continue to have the right to make conversions or alternate conversion until such time the outstanding balance is paid in full.

 

Company may redeem the Notes in whole, and not in part, at its option, at any time prior to the maturity date, for a cash purchase price of the aggregate principal amount of any Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest (if any) and late charges thereon at a redemption premium of 110% of the Conversion Amount.

Registration Rights Agreement

 

Concurrent with the issuance of the Notes, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investors (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The Registration Rights Agreement provides that upon request of the holder of the Notes, the Company will file with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) within 45 days after notice of such request, a resale registration statement covering the resale of ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes, subject to the lock-up described above. The Company is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to have such registration statement declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable and no later than the earlier of (A) 45 days after the filing of such registration statement (or 75 days after the filing of such registration statement if the SEC notifies the Company that it will review the registration statement) or (B) 15 business days after the SEC notifies the Company in writing that it will not review the registration statement.

 

Alternate Conversion Share Lock-Up Agreement

 

Pursuant to the Alternate Conversion Share Lock-Up Agreements (each, a “Lock-Up Agreement”), the Investors shall not sell any ordinary shares acquired by way of Alternate Conversion (defined in the Notes) into the market for a period of 360 days from the date of initial issuance of Alternate Conversion Shares. In addition, Investors shall not make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any Alternate Conversion Shares in the event such shares are acquired by the Investors pursuant to the Notes.

Exhibit 99.2

 

[FORM OF UNSECURED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE]

 

NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE CONVERTIBLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE HOLDER (IF REQUESTED BY THE COMPANY), IN A FORM REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD OR ELIGIBLE TO BE SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES. ANY TRANSFEREE OF THIS NOTE SHOULD CAREFULLY REVIEW THE TERMS OF THIS NOTE, INCLUDING SECTIONS 3(c)(iii) AND 20(a) HEREOF. THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT REPRESENTED BY THIS NOTE AND, ACCORDINGLY, THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION HEREOF MAY BE LESS THAN THE AMOUNTS SET FORTH ON THE FACE HEREOF PURSUANT TO SECTION 3(c)(iii) OF THIS NOTE.

 

THIS NOTE HAS BEEN ISSUED WITH ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT (“OID”). PURSUANT TO TREASURY REGULATION §1.1275-3(b)(1). THE COMPANY WILL, BEGINNING TEN DAYS AFTER THE ISSUANCE DATE OF THIS NOTE, PROMPTLY MAKE AVAILABLE TO THE HOLDER UPON REQUEST THE INFORMATION DESCRIBED IN TREASURY REGULATION §1.1275-3(b)(1)(i).

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, MicroCloud Hologram Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Borrower”), promises to pay to _______, a __________ company, or its successors or assigns (“Holder”), $[     ] and any interest, fees, charges, and late fees accrued hereunder on the date (the “Maturity Date”) that is 360 days after the date the Purchase Price for this Note is delivered by Holder to Borrower (the “Purchase Price Date”) in accordance with the terms set forth herein and to pay interest on the Outstanding Balance (as defined below) at the simple rate of 0% per annum from the Purchase Price Date until the same is paid in full. All interests hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months, and shall be payable on the Maturity Date.

 

This Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”) is issued and made effective as of [     ] (the “Effective Date”). This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Convertible Note Purchase Agreement dated August 12, 2024, as the same may be amended from time to time, by and between Borrower and Holder (the “Purchase Agreement”). For all purposes of this Note, (a) the “Outstanding Balance” means, as of any date of determination, the Purchase Price, as reduced or increased, as the case may be, pursuant to the terms hereof for payment, Conversion (as defined below), offset, or otherwise, plus accrued but unpaid interest, and (b) “Business Day” means any day that is not a Saturday, a Sunday or other day on which banks are required or authorized by applicable laws to be closed in Beijing, Cayman Islands, Hong Kong or New York.

 

The purchase price for this Note shall be $[     ] (the “Purchase Price”), determined pursuant to the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement dated August 12, 2024, as determined between the Borrower and the Holder. The Purchase Price shall be payable by Holder by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

 

 

 

 

1. Payment; Prepayment.

 

1.1. Payment. All payments owing hereunder shall be in lawful money of the United States of America or Conversion Shares (as defined below), as provided for herein, and delivered to Holder at the address or bank account furnished to Borrower for that purpose. All payments shall be applied first to (a) costs of collection, if any, then to (b) fees and charges, if any, then to (c) accrued and unpaid interest, and thereafter, to (d) principal.

 

1.2. Prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing and provided that an Event of Default (as defined below) has not occurred under this Note, at any time prior to the maturity of the Note (the “Prepayment Termination Date”), the Company shall have the right to prepay up to the outstanding balance on this Note (the “Optional Prepayment Amount”), in full, by delivering to the Holder a Optional Prepayment Notice (defined below) in accordance with this section. The Optional Prepayment Notice shall be delivered to the Holder at its registered addresses furnished to Company by written notice and shall state: (1) that the Company is exercising its right to prepay the Note, and (2) the date of prepayment (the “Optional Payment Date”) which shall be at least three (3) Business Days but not more than five (5) Business Days from the date of the Optional Prepayment Notice; and (3) the Optional Prepayment Amount as calculated as below. Upon receipt of the Option Prepayment Notice, the Holder shall have three (3) Business Days to elect to convert the Optional Prepayment Amount into equity securities of the Company in accordance with Section 3.1 herein. If the Holder elects not to convert such Optional Prepayment Amount, then on the Optional Prepayment Date the Company shall pay the Optional Prepayment Amount to or upon the order of the Holder as specified by the Holder in writing to the Company prior to the Optional Prepayment Date.

 

The Optional Prepayment Amount is equal to the sum of 110% multiplied by the then outstanding principal amount of this Note as of the date of the Optional Prepayment Notice, provided that any portion of the then outstanding balance of Note for which the Company has received a Notice of Conversion (as defined below) from Holder prior to the Optional Prepayment Notice where the applicable Conversion Shares have not yet been delivered, shall not be included in the Optional Prepayment Amount.

 

2. Pari Passu Ranking. This Note constitutes direct, unsecured, unsubordinated, unconditional and senior obligations of the Company and the Company’s payment obligations under this Note shall at times rank (i) at least pari passu and ratably and equally with all other existing and future claims of all its other unsecured and unsubordinated creditors, including notes issued by the Company as part of a series of transactions of which the issuance of this Note is a part and (ii) senior to all existing and future subordinated indebtedness owed by the Company.

 

3. Holder Optional Conversion.

 

3.1. Conversions. Subject to the terms of this Note, Holder has the right at any time after the Purchase Price Date until the Outstanding Balance has been paid in full, at its election, to convert (“Conversion”) all, or a portion of the Outstanding Balance into ordinary shares of par value US$0.001 each of Borrower (“Conversion Shares”) as per the following conversion formula: the number of Conversion Shares equals the amount being converted (the “Conversion Amount”) divided by the Conversion Price. Conversion notices shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Conversion Notice”) and may be effectively delivered to Borrower by any method set forth in the “Notices” section of the Purchase Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note except to Section 7 below, after the effective date of the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) and prior to the Holder’s receipt of the notice of a Grace Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to deliver unlegended ordinary shares to the Holder (or its designee) in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) with respect to which the Holder has entered into a contract for sale, and delivered a copy of the prospectus included as part of the particular Registration Statement to the extent applicable, and for which the Holder has not yet settled.

 

2

 

 

“Permitted Designee” means any individual, partnership, firm, corporation, association, trust, unincorporated organization or other entity which directly, legally and beneficially owns any issued and outstanding equity securities of Holder.

 

3.2. Conversion Price. Subject to adjustment as set forth in this Note, the price at which Holder has the right to convert all, and no less than all, of the Outstanding Balance into Conversion Shares is the Conversion Price, which shall be calculated as (A) the lowest market closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares in the ninety (90) days preceding the date of the Conversion Notice (the “Reference Price”), (B) multiplied by 70%, and (C) rounded down to the nearest 2 decimal places, subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, or similar transactions.

 

3.3 Right of Alternate Conversion. The Holder may at any time during the term of the note, at the Holder’s sole option, convert (each, an “Alternate Conversion” and, and the date of such Alternate Conversion, each, an “Alternate Conversion Date”) all, or any part of, the Conversion Amount (such portion of the Conversion Amount subject to such Alternate Conversion, each, an “Alternate Conversion Amount”) into Alternate Conversion Shares at the Alternate Conversion Price.

 

3.4 Alternate Conversion. On any Alternate Conversion Date, the Holder may voluntarily convert any Alternate Conversion Amount pursuant to Section 3.3 (i.e., with “Alternate Conversion Price” replacing “Conversion Price” for all purposes hereunder with respect to such Alternate Conversion, and “Alternate Conversion Shares” replacing “Conversion Shares”. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.3, but subject to Section 9, until the Company delivers Alternate Conversion Shares representing the applicable Alternate Conversion Amount to the Holder, such Alternate Conversion Amount may be converted by the Holder into Conversion Shares pursuant to Section 3.1 and 3.2 without regard to this Section 3.3 and 3.4.

 

“Alternate Conversion Price” shall be calculated as (A) the Reference Price (B) multiplied by 40%, and (C) rounded down to the nearest 2 decimal places, subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, or similar transactions.

 

“Alternate Conversion Shares” are the ordinary shares equal to the Alternate Conversion Amount divided by the Alternate Conversion Price.

 

4. Trigger Events; Defaults; and Remedies.

 

4.1. Trigger Events. The following are trigger events under this Note (each, a “Trigger Event”): (a) Borrower fails to pay any principal, interest, fees, charges, or any other amount when due and payable hereunder; (b) a receiver, trustee or other similar official shall be appointed over Borrower or a material part of its assets and such appointment shall remain uncontested for 60 days or shall not be dismissed or discharged within 60 days; (c) Borrower files a petition for relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law (domestic or foreign); (d) an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding is commenced or filed against Borrower.

 

4.2. Defaults. At any time following the occurrence of a Trigger Event, Holder may, at its option, send written notice to Borrower demanding that Borrower cure the Trigger Event within 60 Business Days. If Borrower fails to cure the Trigger Event within the required 60 Business Day cure period, the Trigger Event will automatically become an event of default hereunder (each, an “Event of Default”) and the date of the Event of Default shall be the 60th Business Day following the occurrence of the relevant Trigger Event.

 

3

 

 

4.3. Default Remedies. At any time and from time to time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Holder may accelerate this Note by written notice to Borrower, with the Outstanding Balance becoming immediately due and payable in cash. At any time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, upon written notice given by Holder to Borrower to accelerate this Note, interest shall accrue on the Outstanding Balance beginning on the date the applicable Event of Default occurred at an interest rate equal to 10% per annum (“Default Interest”) until the Outstanding Balance is paid in full. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing interest rate of 10% per annum shall be the only interest that may accrue on the Outstanding Balance beginning on the date of the applicable Event of Default, and the original interest rate of 0% per annum shall cease to have effect from the date of the applicable Event of Default. Holder may continue making Conversions at any time following a Trigger Event or an Event of Default until such time as the Outstanding Balance is paid in full. Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder and Holder shall have all rights as a holder of the Note until such time, if any, as Holder receives full payment pursuant to this Section 4.3. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Nothing herein shall limit Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to Borrower’s failure to timely deliver Conversion Shares upon Conversion of the Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

5. Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Note shall be effective unless it is in the form of a writing signed by the party granting the waiver. No waiver of any provision or consent to any prohibited action shall constitute a waiver of any other provision or consent to any other prohibited action, whether or not similar. No waiver or consent shall constitute a continuing waiver or consent or commit a party to provide a waiver or consent in the future except to the extent specifically set forth in writing.

 

6. Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Share Subdivision or Combination. Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, ratio change or otherwise) its outstanding ordinary shares into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split, ratio change or otherwise) its outstanding Class ordinary shares into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 6 shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this Section 6 occurs during the period that a Conversion Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Conversion Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.

 

7. Method of Conversion Share Delivery. Subject to Sections 3.3 and 3.4 above, on or before the close of business on the 10th Business Day following the date of delivery of a Conversion Notice (the “Delivery Date”), Borrower shall deliver or cause its share registrar or transfer agent to deliver the applicable Conversion Shares and a certificate representing the number of Conversion Shares to which Holder shall be entitled, registered in the name of Holder or its Permitted Designee. Moreover, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, in the event Borrower or its share registrar or transfer agent refuses to deliver any Conversion Shares without a restrictive securities legend to Holder on grounds that such issuance is in violation of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144”), Borrower shall deliver or cause its share registrar or transfer agent to deliver the applicable Conversion Shares to Holder with a restricted securities legend, but otherwise in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.

 

8. Issuance Fees. Holder will be solely liable for any fees that must be paid by Borrower in order to issue any Conversion Shares.

 

4

 

 

9. Ownership Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other Transaction Documents, Borrower may, at its option, decline to effect any conversion of this Note to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion would cause each of Holder or any Permitted Designee to, on an individual basis, beneficially own a number of shares exceeding 9.99% of the number of shares outstanding on such date (including for such purpose the Conversion Shares issuable upon such issuance) (the “Maximum Percentage”). For purposes of this section, beneficial ownership of shares will be determined pursuant to Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act. Borrower and Holder may, by written agreement, increase, decrease or waive the Maximum Percentage as to Holder.

 

10. Opinion of Counsel. In the event that an opinion of counsel is needed for any matter related to this Note, Holder has the right to have any such opinion provided by its counsel at its own costs.

 

11. Governing Law; Dispute Resolution. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed exclusively in accordance with the laws of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction to the rights and duties of the parties hereunder. The Company and the Purchaser agree to negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute, controversy, difference or claim arising out of or relating to or regarding this Agreement including the existence, validity, interpretation, performance, breach or termination thereof or any dispute regarding non-contractual obligations arising out of or relating to it (each, a “Dispute”).

 

12. Cancellation. After repayment or conversion of the entire Outstanding Balance, this Note shall be deemed paid in full, shall automatically be deemed canceled, and shall not be reissued.

 

13. Amendments. The prior written consent of both parties hereto shall be required for any change or amendment to this Note.

 

14. Assignments. Borrower may not assign this Note without the prior written consent of Holder. This Note may not be offered, sold, assigned or transferred by Holder without the consent of Borrower, and Borrower is not obligated to give such consent. For avoidance of doubt, ADSs issued to Holder upon conversion of Conversion Shares may be offered, sold, assigned or transferred by Holder without the consent of Borrower.

 

15. Notices. Whenever notice is required to be given under this Note, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in accordance with the section of the Purchase Agreement titled “Notices.”

 

16. Severability. If any part of this Note is construed to be in violation of any law, such part shall be modified to achieve the objective of Borrower and Holder to the fullest extent permitted by law and the balance of this Note shall remain in full force and effect.

Exhibit 99.3

 

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

 

THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of August 12, 2024, by and among MicroCloud Hologram Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”) and the Persons listed on the signature page hereto as investors (collectively referred to herein as the “Investors”).

 

On August 12, 2024, the Company and Investors entered into certain Convertible Note Purchase Agreements in transactions exemption from securities registration afforded by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Pursuant to the Convertible Note Purchase Agreements, the investors will purchase Convertible Notes (“Notes”) up to the aggregate principal amount of $30,000,000 (“CNPA”).

 

To induce the Investors to enter into the CNPAs, the Company has agreed to provide to the Holders and their direct and indirect transferees the registration rights set forth in this Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Demand Registrations.

 

(a) Short-Form Registrations. The holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities, as a group, shall be entitled to request registration on Form F-3, or any similar form (each, a “Short-Form Registration”), in which the Company shall pay Registration Expenses as provided in Section 6 of this Agreement; provided that, except in the case of one non-underwritten Short-Form Registration (the “Excepted Registration”), the aggregate offering value of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered in any Short-Form Registration which is qualified under Rule 415 under the Securities Act must be equal to at least $2,000,000. The offering contemplated by the Excepted Registration shall not be underwritten. Demand Registrations shall be Short-Form Registrations whenever the Company is permitted to use any applicable short form. The Company shall use its best efforts to make Short-Form Registrations on Form F-3 available for the sale of Registrable Securities. If a request for a Demand Registration is for a shelf registration pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep such shelf registration continuously effective for up to 360 days following such registration, but not later than the date on which all of the Registrable Securities covered by such shelf registration may be sold without limitation or restriction pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any successor provision having similar effect); provided, however, that prior to the termination of such shelf registration prior to the expiration of such maximum period for the reason that such Registrable Securities may be sold without limitation or restriction pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any successor provision having similar effect, the Company shall first furnish to each holder of Registrable Securities participating in such shelf registration

 

(i) an opinion, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities, of counsel for the Company reasonably satisfactory to the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities requesting such registration stating that such Registrable Securities are freely saleable without limitation or restriction pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any successor provision having similar effect) or (ii) a “No-Action Letter” from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission stating that the Securities and Exchange Commission would not recommend enforcement action if the Registrable Securities included in such shelf registration were sold in a public sale other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144.

 

 

 

 

(b) Long-Form Registrations. At any time that a Short-Form Registration pursuant to paragraph 2(a) is not available, the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities, as a group, shall be entitled to request registration on Form F-1, or any similar form (each, a “Long-Form Registration”), in which the Company shall pay Registration Expenses as provided in Section 6 of this Agreement; provided that (i) the aggregate offering value of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered in any Long-Form Registration must be equal to at least $15,000,000; (ii) such holders shall not be permitted more than three (3) Long-Form Registrations hereunder; and (iii) each Long-Form Registration shall be an underwritten registration. A registration shall not count as one of the permitted Long-Form Registrations until it has become effective, and no Long-Form Registration shall count as one of the permitted Long-Form Registrations unless the person or group making such request is able to register and sell at least 90% of the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration; provided that in any event the Company shall pay Registration Expenses as provided in Section 6 of this Agreement in connection with any registration initiated as a Long-Form Registration whether or not it has become effective and whether or not such registration has counted as one of the permitted Long-Form Registrations.

 

(c) All registrations requested pursuant to this Section 1 are referred to herein as “Demand Registrations”. The holders of Registrable Securities shall not be permitted more than a total of three Demand Registrations hereunder. Each request for a Demand Registration shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered and the anticipated per share price range for such offering. Within ten days after receipt of any such request, the Company shall give written notice of such requested registration to all other holders of Registrable Securities and shall include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within 15 days after the receipt of the Company’s notice.

 

(d) Priority on Demand Registrations. The Company will not include in any Demand Registration any securities which are not Registrable Securities without the written consent of the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities requesting such registration. If a Demand Registration is an underwritten offering and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of Registrable Securities and, if permitted hereunder, other securities requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number of Registrable Securities and other securities, if any, which can be sold therein without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, the Company shall include in such registration prior to the inclusion of any securities which are not Registrable Securities the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included which in the opinion of such underwriters can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, pro rata among the respective holders thereof on the basis of the amount of Registrable Securities owned by each such holder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no employee of the Company or any subsidiary thereof will be entitled to participate, directly or indirectly, in any such registration to the extent that the managing underwriter determines in good faith that the participation of such employee in such registration would adversely affect the marketability or offering price of the securities being sold in such registration. In the event the Company shall not, by virtue of this paragraph 1(d), include in any Demand Registration all of the Registrable Securities of any holder of Registrable Securities requesting to be included in such Demand Registration, such holder may, upon written notice to the Company given within five days of the time such holder first is notified of such matter, reduce the amount of Registrable Securities it desires to have included in such Demand Registration, whereupon only the Registrable Securities, if any, it desires to have included will be so included and the holders of Registrable Securities not so reducing shall be entitled to a corresponding increase in the amount of Registrable Securities to be included in such Demand Registration.

 

(e) Restrictions on Demand Registrations. The Company shall not be obligated to effect any Demand Registration within 30 days after the effective date of a previous Demand Registration or a previous registration in which the holders of Registrable Securities were given piggyback rights pursuant to Section 3 below. The Company may postpone for up to 120 days the filing or the effectiveness of a registration statement for a Demand Registration if the Company in good faith determines that such Demand Registration would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on any proposal or plan by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to engage in any acquisition of assets (other than in the ordinary course of business) or any merger, consolidation, tender offer, reorganization or similar transaction; provided that in such event, the holders of Registrable Securities initially requesting such Demand Registration shall be entitled to withdraw such request and, if such request is withdrawn, such Demand Registration shall not count as one of the permitted Demand Registrations hereunder and the Company shall pay Registration Expenses as provided in Section 6 of this Agreement in connection with such registration.

 

2

 

 

(f) Selection of Underwriters. The holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities requesting registration hereunder shall have the right to select the investment banker(s) and manager(s) to administer the offering, subject to the reasonable consent of the Company.

 

(g) Other Registration Rights. The Company may grant rights to other Persons to participate in Piggyback Registrations so long as such rights are subordinate to the rights of the holders of Registrable Securities with respect to such Piggyback Registrations as set forth in paragraphs 2(c) and 2(d) below.

 

2. Piggyback Registrations.

 

(a) Right to Piggyback. Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act (other than pursuant to a Demand Registration) and the registration form to be used may be used for the registration of Registrable Securities (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company shall give prompt written notice to all holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to effect such a registration and shall include in such registration all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within 20 days after the receipt of the Company’s notice.

 

(b) Piggyback Expenses. The Registration Expenses of the holders of Registrable Securities shall be paid by the Company as provided in Section 6 in all Piggyback Registrations.

 

(c) Priority on Primary Registrations.

5. Registration Procedures.

 

Whenever the holders of Registrable Securities have requested that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration and the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof and pursuant thereto the Company shall as expeditiously as possible:

 

(a) prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective (provided that before filing a registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, the Company shall furnish to the counsel selected by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents shall be subject to the review and comment of such counsel);

 

(b) notify each holder of Registrable Securities of the effectiveness of each registration statement filed hereunder and prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective for a period of not less than 12 months and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof set forth in such registration statement;

 

(c) furnish to each seller of Registrable Securities such number of copies of such registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included in such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and such other documents as such seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller;

 

(d) use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any seller reasonably requests and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller (provided that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subparagraph, (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (iii) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction);

 

(e) notify each seller of such Registrable Securities, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, at the request of any such seller, the Company shall prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

 

(f) cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange or automated quotation system on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or quoted;

 

(g) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of such registration statement;

 

(h) enter into such customary agreements (including underwriting agreements in customary form) and take all such other actions as the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold or the underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities (including effecting a stock split or a combination of shares);

 

4

 

 

(i) in the case of an underwritten offering, use its reasonable best efforts to obtain (i) a “comfort letter” from the Company’s independent public accountants in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by comfort letters and (ii) opinions of counsel from the Company’s counsel in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered in a public issuance of securities, in each case, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the underwriters and addressed to the managing underwriters;

 

(j) make available for inspection by any seller of Registrable Securities, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller or underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees and independent accountants to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement;

 

(k) otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable but no later than 90 days after the end of any 12-month period, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve months beginning with the first day of the Company’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the registration statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder;

 

(l) in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a registration statement, or of any order suspending or preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of any Ordinary Share included in such registration statement for sale in any jurisdiction, the Company shall use its best efforts promptly to obtain the withdrawal of such order; and

 

(m) permit any holder of Registrable Securities which holder, in its sole and exclusive judgment, might be deemed to be an underwriter or a controlling person of the Company, to participate in the preparation of such registration or comparable statement and to require the insertion therein of material, furnished to the Company in writing, which in the reasonable judgment of such holder and its counsel should be included.

 

Cooperation by the Company and its management shall include, but not be limited to, management’s attendance and reasonable presentations in respect of the Company at road shows with respect to the offering of Registrable Securities.

 

6. Registration Expenses.

 

(a) All expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with this Agreement, including without limitation all registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, printing expenses, messenger and delivery expenses, fees and disbursements of custodians, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and all independent certified public accountants, underwriters (excluding discounts, commissions and underwriters’ counsel fees) and other Persons retained by the Company (all such expenses being herein called “Registration Expenses”), shall be borne by the Company, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. In addition to underwriting discounts, commissions and underwriters’ counsel fees, the holders of the Registrable Securities included in the Excepted Registration shall bear the out-of-pocket Registration Expenses of the Excepted Registration. The Company shall, in any event, pay its internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expense of any annual audit or quarterly review and the expenses and fees for listing the securities to be registered on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or on the FINRA automated quotation system.

 

(b) In connection with each Demand Registration (other than the Excepted Registration) and each Piggyback Registration, the Company shall reimburse the holders of Registrable Securities included in such registration for not more than $75,000 in the aggregate of the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel chosen by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in such registration.

 

5

 

 

(c) To the extent Registration Expenses are not required to be paid by the Company, each holder of securities included in any registration hereunder shall pay those Registration Expenses allocable to the registration of such holder’s securities so included, and any Registration Expenses not so allocable shall be borne by all sellers of securities included in such registration in proportion to the aggregate selling price of the securities to be so registered.

 

7. Indemnification.

 

(a) The Company shall indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each holder of Registrable Securities, its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, managers, partners, members, shareholders, employees and agents and each Person who controls such holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against, and pay and reimburse any of the foregoing for any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several, to which any of the foregoing may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto (including without limitation any “free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act (an “issuer free writing prospectus”), or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act), (ii) any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (iii) any violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder or any state securities laws applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required by the Company in connection with any such registration statement, and will pay and reimburse such holder, its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, managers, partners, members, shareholders, employees and agents for any legal or any other expenses actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, defending or settling any such loss, claim, liability, action or proceeding, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such holder expressly for use therein or by such holder’s failure to deliver a copy of the registration statement or prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto after the Company has furnished such holder with a sufficient number of copies of the same. In connection with an underwritten offering, the Company shall indemnify such underwriters, their officers and directors and each Person who controls such underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the holders of Registrable Securities.

 

(b) In connection with any registration statement in which a holder of Registrable Securities is participating, each such holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such registration statement or prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its directors, officers, managers, partners, members, shareholders, employees and agents and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against, and pay and reimburse any of the foregoing for any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, joint or several, to which any of the foregoing may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto (including without limitation any issuer free writing prospectus or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus” as referred to in Section 7(a) above), (ii) any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (iii) any violation by a holder of Registrable Securities of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder or any state securities laws applicable to such holder and relating to action or inaction required by such holder in connection with any such registration statement, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in, or such action or inaction relates to, any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such holder, and such holder will reimburse the Company and each such director, officer and controlling Person for any legal or any other expenses actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, defending or settling any such loss, claim, liability, action or proceeding, provided that the obligation to indemnify shall be individual, not joint and several, for each holder and shall be limited to the net amount of proceeds received by such holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement.

 

6

 

 

(c) Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any Person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of an indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding in respect of which such indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action, suit or proceeding. An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim.

 

(d) The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities.

 

(e) In the event the Company’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason, the Company also agrees to make such provisions, as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution to such party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relevant fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party will be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount any holder of Registrable Securities will be obligated to contribute pursuant to this paragraph 7(e) will be limited to an amount equal to the net proceeds to such holder sold pursuant to the registration statement which gives rise to such obligation to contribute (less the aggregate amount of any damages which the holder has otherwise been required to pay in respect of such loss, claim, damage, liability or action or any substantially similar loss, claim, damage, liability or action arising from the sale of such Registrable Securities). The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this paragraph 7(e) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in this paragraph 7(e).

 

(f) No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

8. Participation in Underwritten Registrations.

 

No Person may participate in any registration hereunder which is underwritten unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Person or Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements; provided that no holder of Registrable Securities included in any underwritten registration shall be required to make any representations or warranties to the Company or the underwriters (other than representations and warranties regarding such holder and such holder’s intended method of distribution) or to undertake any indemnification obligations to the Company or the underwriters with respect thereto, except as otherwise provided in Section 7 hereof.

August 12, 2024

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

The undersigned is a holder of a Unsecured Convertible Promissory Note (each, a “Note”) of MicroCloud Hologram Inc., an exempted company incorporated under the laws of Cayman Islands (the “Company”) issued pursuant to the terms of that certain Convertible Note Purchase Agreement, dated August 12, 2024, by the Company and the undersigned (the “Purchase Agreement”, together, the “Transaction”).

 

To induce the Company to continue its efforts in connection with the Transaction, the undersigned hereby irrevocably agrees that the undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the date of issuance of Alternate Conversion Shares and ending 360 calendar days after such issuance (the “Lock-Up Period”), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Alternate Conversion Shares (as defined in the Note), or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Alternate Conversion Shares, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the undersigned (or any Affiliate of the undersigned) or with respect to which the undersigned (or any Affiliate of the undersigned) has or hereafter acquires the power of disposition (collectively, the “Lock-Up Securities”); (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-Up Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Lock-Up Securities, in cash or otherwise; (3) make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any Lock-Up Securities; or (4) publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement relating to any Lock-Up Securities.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, “Lock-Up Securities” do not include any Conversion Shares (as defined in the Note).

 

This Letter Agreement may not be amended or otherwise modified in any respect without the written consent of each of the Company and the undersigned. This Letter Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York. The undersigned hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court sitting in the Southern District of New York and the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York, for the purposes of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Letter Agreement, and hereby waives, and agrees not to assert in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that (i) it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such court, (ii) the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, or (iii) the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper. The undersigned hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by receiving a copy thereof sent to the Company at the address in effect for notices to it under the Purchase Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. The undersigned hereby waives any right to a trial by jury. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. The undersigned agrees and understands that this Letter Agreement does not intend to create any relationship between the undersigned and any Purchaser and that no Purchaser is entitled to cast any votes on the matters herein contemplated and that no issuance or sale of the Securities is created or intended by virtue of this Letter Agreement.
