FOR VALUE RECEIVED, HUB Cyber Security Ltd., an Israeli company (the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to the order of __________________, or its registered assigns (“Holder”) the principal sum set forth above as the original Loan Amount (as reduced pursuant to the terms hereof pursuant to redemption or otherwise, the “Loan Amount”) from the date set out above as the Issuance Date. This Convertible Note (with all notes issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, this “Note”) is issued pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of __________________, by and between the Company and the Holder (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement.

 

1. Payments of Loan Amount. The Loan Amount under this Note shall be payable as follows:

 

(a) The outstanding Loan Amount shall not accrue interest.

 

(b) Unless earlier converted into Ordinary Shares, the outstanding Loan Amount will be due and payable by the Company on the three-month anniversary of the Issuance Date.

 

(c) All payments made under this Note will be made in lawful money of the United States of America at the principal office of the Company, or at such other place as the Holder may from time to time designate in writing to the Company.

 

 

 

 

2. Conversion. This Note shall be convertible into validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Ordinary Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.

 

(a) Conversion. Subject to the provisions of Section 2(e), at any time or times on or after the Execution Date, the Holder shall be entitled to convert any portion or the entirety of the outstanding Loan Amount into validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Ordinary Shares (“Conversion Shares”) in accordance with Section 2(c). Any such portion of the outstanding Loan Amount to be converted in accordance with this Section 2 is referred to herein as the “Conversion Amount.”

 

(b) Conversion Shares. The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Conversion Amount shall be determined according to the following formula:

 

Conversion Amount

Conversion Price

 

No fractional Ordinary Shares are to be issued upon the conversion of this Note. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share, the Company shall round such fraction of a share up to the nearest whole share.

  

(c) Mechanics of Conversion. The conversion shall be conducted in the following manner:

 

(i) Holder’s Conversion. To convert all or a portion of this Note into Conversion Shares on any date (a “Conversion Date”), a Holder shall deliver to the Company (whether via facsimile or otherwise), for receipt on or prior to 11:59 p.m., New York time, on such date, a copy of an executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Conversion Notice”).

 

(ii) Company’s Response. Not later than the first (1st) Trading Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall transmit by email an acknowledgment of confirmation, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, of receipt of such Conversion Notice to such Holder and the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), which confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Transfer Agent to process such Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms herein. On or before the second (2nd) Trading Day following the date of receipt by the Company of such Conversion Notice, the Company shall (i) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (which the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to do at Holder’s request) and provided the legends would be eligible to be removed from such Ordinary Shares pursuant to Section 5(c) of the Securities Purchase Agreement, upon the request of the Holder, credit such aggregate number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such conversion to the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit/ Withdrawal at Custodian system, or (ii) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program or the legends would not be eligible to be removed from such Ordinary Shares pursuant to Section 5(c) of the Securities Purchase Agreement, issue and deliver to the Holder or, at the Holder’s instruction pursuant to the Conversion Notice, the Holder’s agent or designee, in each case, sent to the address as specified in the applicable Conversion Notice, a certificate or book entry position, in the name of the Holder or its designee (as indicated in the applicable Conversion Notice), for the number of Conversion Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such conversion. Upon delivery of a Conversion Notice, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Conversion Shares with respect to which such Conversion Notice was issued, irrespective of the date such Conversion Shares are credited to the Holder’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates or book entry positions evidencing such Conversion Shares (as the case may be).

 

2

 

 

(iii) Disputes. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the Conversion Price or the arithmetic calculation of the number of Conversion Shares to be issued pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company shall promptly issue to the Holder the number of Conversion Shares that are not disputed, provided that following such issuance to Holder such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 19.

 

(iv) Book-Entry. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 2, upon conversion of any portion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, no Holder thereof shall be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company. If this Note is surrendered as provided by Section 7, then, provided that there remains any outstanding Loan Amount under this Note at the time of surrender, the Company shall, as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Trading Days after receipt of this Note and at its own expense, issue and deliver to such Holder (or its designee) a new Note (in accordance with Section 7(d)) representing the outstanding Loan Amount (if any) under this Note. Each Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the portion of the Note so converted by such Holder and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to such Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of the Note upon each such conversion. A Holder and any transferee or assignee, by acceptance of a certificate, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of any portion of the Note, the outstanding Loan Amount represented by such Note may be less than stated on the face thereof. Each Note shall bear the following legend:

 

ANY TRANSFEREE OF THIS NOTE SHOULD CAREFULLY REVIEW THE TERMS OF THIS NOTE, INCLUDING SECTIONS 2(C)(IV) AND 7(A) HEREOF. THE LOAN 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 2(C)(IV) OF THIS NOTE.

 

(d) Taxes. The Company shall be entitled to withhold Israeli tax on any payment of interest, unless provided with an applicable exemption (or approval of reduced tax withholding rate) issued by the Israel Tax Authority.

 

(e) Limitation on Beneficial Ownership. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note, this Note shall not be convertible or exchangeable by the Holder hereof to the extent (but only to the extent), after giving effect to the issuance of Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion, the Holder or any of its affiliates (either individually or collectively) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of Ordinary Shares then outstanding, as calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act (the “Maximum Percentage”). To the extent the above limitation applies, the determination of whether this Note shall be convertible or exchangeable (vis-à-vis other convertible, exercisable or exchangeable securities owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates) and of which such securities shall be convertible, exercisable or exchangeable (as among all such securities owned by the Holder) shall, subject to such Maximum Percentage limitation, be determined on the basis of the first submission to the Company for conversion, exercise or exchange (as the case may be). No prior inability to convert or exchange this Note pursuant to this paragraph shall have any effect on the applicability of the provisions of this paragraph with respect to any subsequent determination of convertibility or exchangeability. For the purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership and all determinations and calculations (including, without limitation, with respect to calculations of percentage ownership) shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The provisions of this paragraph shall be implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this paragraph to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Maximum Percentage beneficial ownership limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such Maximum Percentage limitation, and, in addition, with the intention that Section 328 to the Israeli Companies Law, 1999, shall not apply to any of the transactions contemplated under this Note. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor Holder of this Note. The holders of Ordinary Shares shall be third party beneficiaries of this paragraph and the Company may not waive this paragraph without the consent of holders of a majority of its Ordinary Shares. For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Business Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of Ordinary Shares then outstanding, including by virtue of any prior conversion or exercise or exchange of convertible or exercisable or exchangeable securities into Ordinary Shares, including, without limitation, pursuant to this Note or securities issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement.

(f) Reservation of Shares; Insufficient Authorized Shares. The Company shall initially reserve out of its authorized and unissued Ordinary Shares a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the maximum number of Conversion Shares issuable to satisfy the Company’s obligations to issue Ordinary Shares hereunder, and the Company shall at all times keep reserved for issuance under this Note a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the maximum number of Conversion Shares issuable to satisfy the Company’s obligation to issue Ordinary Shares hereunder.

(viii) any provision of this Note or any other Transaction Document (shall at any time for any reason (other than pursuant to the express terms thereof)) cease to be valid and binding on or enforceable against the parties thereto, or the validity or enforceability thereof shall be contested by any party thereto, or a proceeding shall be commenced by the Company or any Subsidiary or any governmental authority having jurisdiction over any of them, seeking to establish the invalidity or unenforceability thereof, or the Company or any Subsidiary shall deny in writing that it has any liability or obligation purported to be created under any Transaction Document.

4. Adjustment of Conversion Price and Number of Conversion Shares. Until the Note has been paid in full or converted in full, the Conversion Price and number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4.

 

(a) Stock Dividends and Splits. Without limiting any provision of Section 6, if the Company, at any time on or after the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement, (i) pays a stock dividend on one or more classes of its then outstanding Ordinary Shares or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in Ordinary Shares, (ii) subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its then outstanding Ordinary Shares into a larger number of shares or (iii) combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its then outstanding Ordinary Shares into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this paragraph 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.

 

5

 

 

(b) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 4 shall be made by rounding to the nearest 1/10000th of cent and the nearest 1/100th of a share, as applicable. The number of Ordinary Shares outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Ordinary Shares.

 

(c) Other Events. In the event that the Company shall take any action to which the provisions hereof are not strictly applicable, or, if applicable, would not operate to protect the Holder from dilution or if any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 4 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then the Company’s board of directors shall in good faith determine and implement an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price and the number of Conversion Shares (if applicable) so as to protect the rights of the Holder, provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 4‎(c) will increase the Conversion Price or decrease the number of Conversion Shares as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 4, provided further that if the Holder does not accept such adjustments as appropriately protecting its interests hereunder against such dilution, then the Company’s board of directors and the Holder shall agree, in good faith, upon an independent investment bank of nationally recognized standing to make such appropriate adjustments, whose determination shall be final and binding and whose fees and expenses shall be borne by the Company.

 

5. Rights Upon Distribution of Assets. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 4, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of Ordinary Shares, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, indebtedness, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction, other than a distribution of Ordinary Shares covered by Section 4(a)) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Note and until this Note has been paid in full or converted in full, then, in each such case, provision shall be made so that upon conversion of this Note, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of Ordinary Shares acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without regard to any limitations on conversion hereof, including without limitation, the Maximum Percentage) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Ordinary Shares are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distributions would result in the Holder exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or the beneficial ownership of any such Ordinary Shares as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and such Distribution to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Maximum Percentage).

6. Purchase Rights; Fundamental Transaction.

 

(a) Purchase Rights. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 5 herein, if at any time after the issuance of this Note and until this Note has been paid in full or converted in full the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Ordinary Shares (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of Ordinary Shares acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Maximum Percentage) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Ordinary Shares are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Maximum Percentage, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such Ordinary Shares as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Maximum Percentage).

 

(b) Fundamental Transactions. At any time after the issuance of this Note and until this Note has been paid in full or converted in full, upon the consummation of a Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Holder, in lieu of the Ordinary Shares (or other securities, cash, assets or other property (except such items still issuable under Sections 5 and 6(a) above, which shall continue to be receivable thereafter)) issuable upon the conversion of this Note prior to the applicable Fundamental Transaction, such Ordinary Shares (or its equivalent) of the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity), or other securities, cash, assets or other property, which the Holder would have been entitled to receive upon the happening of the applicable Fundamental Transaction had this Note been converted immediately prior to the applicable Fundamental Transaction; provided, however, that such amount of reserved Ordinary Shares shall be limited by the Maximum Percentage of Ordinary Shares.

The Company shall maintain and preserve, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain and preserve, its existence, rights and privileges, and become or remain, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to become or remain, duly qualified and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the character of the properties owned or leased by it or in which the transaction of its business makes such qualification necessary.

 

(e) Maintenance of Properties, Etc. The Company shall maintain and preserve, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain and preserve, all of its properties which are necessary or useful in the proper conduct of its business in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and comply, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply, at all times with the provisions of all leases to which it is a party as lessee or under which it occupies property, so as to prevent any loss or forfeiture thereof or thereunder.

10. No Short Sales. The Holder covenants that through and including the first Trading Day following the full conversion or full repayment of this Note, none of the Holder any of its officers, or any entity managed or controlled by the Holder (each of the foregoing, a “Restricted Person”) shall, directly or indirectly, (i) engage in any “short sale” (as such term is defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO of the 1934 Act) of the Ordinary Shares or (ii) engage in any hedging transaction, which establishes a net short position with respect to any securities of the Company (including the Ordinary Shares), with respect to each of clauses (i) and (ii) hereof, either for its own principal account or for the principal account of any other Restricted Person.

The Company covenants to the Holder that there shall be no characterization concerning this instrument other than as expressly provided herein. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversions and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by the Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the performance thereof). The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate.
