For purposes of this binding letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”), Nuvo Group Ltd. is hereinafter referred to as the “Company”, Holdco Nuvo Group D.G Ltd. Is hereinafter referred to as “Holdco” and you are hereinafter referred to as the “Holder”. Capitalized terms under this Letter Agreement which are not defined shall have the meanings attributed to them under the respective Transaction Document(s).

 

The purpose of this Letter Agreement is to memorialize those amendments mutually agreed by the Company and Holder in respect of the Convertible Note and Warrant. The amendments to the Transaction Documents set forth in this Letter Agreement are contingent upon, and shall be effective concurrently with, the consummation of the proposed equity offering (the “Amendment Effective Date”) of Holdco pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-279737), filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission originally on May 24, 2024. In consideration of the foregoing and the promises and covenants set forth in this Letter Agreement, each of the Company and Holder hereby agrees as follows:

 

1. The Maturity Date under the Convertible Note is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: “Maturity Date” means the Amendment Effective Date (as defined below), and concurrently with the consummation of the proposed equity offering of Holdco pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-279737), filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission originally on May 24, 2024 (the “Proposed Public Follow-on Offering”), Holdco shall register in the name of, and issue to, the Holder the Conversion Shares (which Conversion Shares shall represent, for avoidance of doubt, the principal amount of the Convertible Note and all accrued and unpaid interest on such Convertible Note, up to and including the Amendment Effective Date). For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the issuance of such Conversion Shares shall satisfy in full the Company’s payment obligation to the Holder under the Convertible Note and (ii) the Conversion Shares, upon issuance, shall not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, but shall remain entitled to the resale registration rights set forth below, which include, the proposed registration of such shares for resale pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-280615), filed with the SEC on June 28, 2024.

3. The Convertible Note shall include the following definitions: ““Amendment Effective Date,” “Transfer,” “Locked-Up Shares,” “Lock-Up Period,” “LAMF,” SPAC Sponsor” and “Permitted Transferees” each of which has the meaning ascribed to such term in Section 6(b).

 

4. All references to “ordinary shares” of the Company shall refer to the ordinary shares of Holdco, no par value.

 

5. The reference in Section 5(a) of the Convertible Note to a price per Conversion Share of $7.0265 is hereby replaced with a price per Conversion Share of $[●]1.

 

6. Section 6(b) of the Convertible Note is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: “The Conversion Shares and the ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants issued in connection with the Advisory Agreement as described in Section 4, will be entitled to customary resale registration rights. The Conversion Shares and any ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of such warrants (together, the “Locked-Up Shares”) shall be subject to a restriction on transfer (howsoever characterized, including, without limitation, any sale, offer to sell, contract or agreement to sell, hypothecate, pledge, assign, grant of any option) for a period of 180 days (the “Lock -Up Period”) following the date of the consummation of the proposed equity offering of Holdco pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-279737) (the “Amendment Effective Date”). Each holder of Locked-Up Shares and its Permitted Transferees (as defined below) may transfer any Locked-up Shares during the Lock-up Period (A) (1) Holdco’s or the Company’s, former or existing officers or directors, (2) to any affiliates (as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended) or family members of the Holdco’s or the Company’s former or existing officers or directors2;3 [(B) by gift to a member of the individual’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of the individual’s immediate family or an affiliate of such person, or to a charitable organization; (C) by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual; (D) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, divorce settlement, divorce decree or separation agreement;] (B) to a nominee or custodian of a person to whom a transfer would be permitted under clause (A) above; (C) to the Holdco; (D) in connection with any order; or (E) to Holdco in connection with the repurchase of such shareholder’s shares in connection with the termination of such Shareholder’s employment with Holdco (collectively, the “Permitted Transferees”); provided, however, that in the case of the foregoing clauses (A) through (B) the transferee must enter into a written agreement with the Holdco prior to the effectiveness of such transfer.”

 

7. Sections 14(a) is hereby deleted in its entirety [and, upon execution of this Letter Agreement, the duties of the Company and Holdco pursuant to the “most-favored nation” provisions set forth in Sections 16 and 17 of the Convertible Note are hereby waived by the Holder with respect to any amendments to Holdco’s convertible promissory notes entered into by Additional Holders in connection with the Proposed Public Follow-on Offering]4.
