SUMMARY

 

Overview

 

Cloudastructure was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 28, 2003. Cloudastructure provides cloud-controlled physical infrastructure to enterprises in the form of video surveillance and access control in a cloud-model. We provide on-premises hardware that talks to a customer’s cameras and doors. Then we host a cloud solution that allows the customer to see their video (live and recorded) and manage which employee’s badge works on which door from anywhere. Since we are in the cloud, we have available computational resources that would be impractical to build and maintain at each customers' location. These computational resources allow us to provide more advanced AI (artificial intelligence) solutions than are possible in the legacy on-premises model. Such AI solutions include Tagger which tags all objects seen in a video so that users can search by tag (e.g. "person", "vehicle", "animal", etc.). Essentially, we are indexing our customers’ video surveillance and access control data to make for easy search, just like Google indexed the web for easy search.

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

 

We are not subject to the ongoing reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) because we are not registering our securities under the Exchange Act.  Rather, we will be subject to the more limited reporting requirements under Regulation A, including the obligation to electronically file:

 

·annual reports (including disclosure relating to our business operations for the preceding three fiscal years, or, if in existence for less than three years, since inception, related party transactions, beneficial ownership of the issuer’s securities, executive officers and directors and certain executive compensation information, management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of the issuer’s liquidity, capital resources, and results of operations, and two years of audited financial statements),

 

·semiannual reports (including disclosure primarily relating to the issuer’s interim financial statements and MD&A) and

 

·current reports for certain material events.

 

In addition, at any time after completing reporting for the fiscal year in which our offering statement was qualified, if the securities of each class to which this Offering Statement relates are held of record by fewer than 300 persons and offers or sales are not ongoing, we may immediately suspend our ongoing reporting obligations under Regulation A. 

 

If and when we become subject to the ongoing reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, as an issuer with less than $1.07 billion in total annual gross revenues during our last fiscal year, we will qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and this status will be significant. An emerging growth company may take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements and is relieved of certain other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company we:

 

  · will not be required to obtain an auditor attestation on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

 

  · will not be required to provide a detailed narrative disclosure discussing our compensation principles, objectives and elements and analyzing how those elements fit with our principles and objectives (commonly referred to as “compensation discussion and analysis”);

 

  · will not be required to obtain a non-binding advisory vote from our stockholders on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements (commonly referred to as the “say-on-pay”, “say-on-frequency” and “say-on-golden-parachute” votes);

 

  · will be exempt from certain executive compensation disclosure provisions requiring a pay-for-performance graph and CEO pay ratio disclosure;

 

  · may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, or MD&A; and

 

  · will be eligible to claim longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards.

 

We intend to take advantage of all of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions, including the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards, and hereby elect to do so. Our election to use the phase-in periods may make it difficult to compare our financial statements to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the phase-in periods under Section 107 of the JOBS Act.

 

 

 

 

 5 
 

 

Under the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of the above-described reduced reporting requirements and exemptions for up to five years after our initial sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or such earlier time that we no longer meet the definition of an emerging growth company. Note that this Offering, while a public offering, is not a sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement, since the Offering is conducted pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements. In this regard, the JOBS Act provides that we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” if we have more than $1.07 billion in annual revenues, have more than $700 million in market value of our Common Stock held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1 billion in principal amount of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.

 

Certain of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions are also available to us due to the fact that we may also qualify, once listed, as a “smaller reporting company” under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). For instance, smaller reporting companies are not required to obtain an auditor attestation on their assessment of internal control over financial reporting; are not required to provide a compensation discussion and analysis; are not required to provide a pay-for-performance graph or CEO pay ratio disclosure; and may present only two years of audited financial statements and related MD&A disclosure.

 

Selected Risks Associated with Our Business

 

Our business is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those highlighted in the section titled “Risk Factors” immediately following this summary. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

 

  · We are a comparatively early-stage company that has incurred operating losses in the past, expect to incur operating losses in the future, and may never achieve or maintain profitability.

 

  · Our technology continues to be developed, and there is no guarantee that we will ever successfully develop the technology that is essential to our business to a point at which no further development is needed.

 

  · We may be subject to numerous data protection requirements and regulations.

 

  · We operate in a highly competitive industry that is dominated by a number of exceptionally large, well-capitalized market leaders and the size and resources of some of our competitors may allow them to compete more effectively than we can.

 

  · We rely on third parties to provide services essential to the success of our business.

 

  · We expect to raise additional capital through equity and/or debt offerings to support our working capital requirements and operating losses.

 

  · The Company is controlled by its officers and directors.

 

  · A single customer accounts for a material portion of our revenues. The loss or a substantial reduction in business of this customer would have a significant impact on our operating results.

 

  · This investment is illiquid.

 

  · The auditor included a “going concern” note in its audit report for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

RISK FACTORS

 

The SEC requires the Company to identify risks that are specific to its business and its financial condition. The Company is still subject to all the same risks that all companies in its business, and all companies in the economy, are exposed to. These include risks relating to economic downturns, political and economic events, and technological developments (such as cyber-attacks and the ability to prevent such attacks). Additionally, early-stage companies are inherently riskier than more developed companies, and the risk of business failure and complete loss of your investment capital is present. You should consider general risks as well as specific risks when deciding whether to invest.

 

Risks Related to Our Company

 

We have a limited operating history upon which you can evaluate our performance. Accordingly, our prospects must be considered in light of the risks that any new company encounters. Our Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 28, 2003 as Connexed Technologies Inc. The likelihood of our creation of a successful business must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications, and delays frequently encountered in connection with the growth of a business, operation in a competitive industry, and the continued development of our technology and products. We anticipate that our operating expenses will increase for the near future, and there is no assurance that we will be profitable in the near future. You should consider our business, operations, and prospects in light of the risks, expenses and challenges faced as an emerging growth company.

 

We have historically operated at a loss, which has resulted in an accumulated deficit. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, we incurred a net loss of $542,322. There can be no assurance that we will ever achieve profitability. Even if we do, there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. Failure to do so would continue to have a material adverse effect on our accumulated deficit, would affect our cash flows, would affect our efforts to raise capital and is likely to result in a decline in our Class A Common Stock price.

 

The auditor included a “going concern” note in its audit report. We may not have enough funds to sustain the business until it becomes profitable. Even if we raise funds through this Offering, we may not accurately anticipate how quickly we may use the funds and whether these funds are sufficient to bring the business to profitability.

 

Our technology continues to be developed, and it is unlikely that we will ever develop our technology to a point at which no further development is required. Cloudastructure is developing complex technology that requires significant technical and regulatory expertise to develop, commercialize and update to meet evolving market and regulatory requirements. If we are unable to successfully develop and commercialize our technology and products, it will significantly affect our viability as a company. 

 

If our security measures are breached or unauthorized access to individually identifiable biometric or other personally identifiable information is otherwise obtained, our reputation may be harmed, and we may incur significant liabilities. In the ordinary course of our business, we may collect and store sensitive data, including personally identifiable information (“PII”), owned or controlled by ourselves or our customers, and other parties. We communicate sensitive data electronically, and through relationships with multiple third-party vendors and their subcontractors. These applications and data encompass a wide variety of business-critical information, including research and development information, patient data, commercial information, and business and financial information. We face a number of risks relative to protecting this critical information, including loss of access risk, inappropriate use or disclosure, inappropriate modification, and the risk of our being unable to adequately monitor, audit, and modify our controls over our critical information. This risk extends to the third-party vendors and subcontractors we use to manage this sensitive data. As a custodian of this data, Cloudastructure therefore inherits responsibilities related to this data, exposing itself to potential threats. Data breaches occur at all levels of corporate sophistication (including at companies with significantly greater resources and security measures than our own) and the resulting fallout stemming from these breaches can be costly, time-consuming, and damaging to a company’s reputation. Further, data breaches need not occur from malicious attack or phishing only. Often, employee carelessness can result in sharing PII with a much wider audience than intended. Consequences of such data breaches could result in fines, litigation expenses, costs of implementing better systems, and the damage of negative publicity, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business operations and financial condition.

Privacy and data security laws and regulations could require us to make changes to our business, impose additional costs on us and reduce the demand for our software solutions. Our business model contemplates that we will transmit a significant amount of personal or identifying information through our platform. Privacy and data security have become significant issues in the United States and in other jurisdictions where we may offer our video surveillance solutions. The regulatory framework relating to privacy and data security issues worldwide is evolving rapidly and is likely to remain uncertain for the foreseeable future. Federal, state and foreign government bodies and agencies have in the past adopted, or may in the future adopt, laws and regulations regarding the collection, use, processing, storage and disclosure of personal or identifying information obtained from customers and other individuals. In addition to government regulation, privacy advocates and industry groups may propose various self-regulatory standards that may legally or contractually apply to our business. Because the interpretation and application of many privacy and data security laws, regulations and applicable industry standards are uncertain, it is possible that these laws, regulations and standards may be interpreted and applied in a manner inconsistent with our existing privacy and data management practices. As we expand into new jurisdictions or verticals, we will need to understand and comply with various new requirements applicable in those jurisdictions or verticals.

 

To the extent applicable to our business or the businesses of our customers, these laws, regulations and industry standards could have negative effects on our business, including by increasing our costs and operating expenses, and delaying or impeding our deployment of new core functionality and products. Compliance with these laws, regulations and industry standards requires significant management time and attention, and failure to comply could result in negative publicity, subject us to fines or penalties or result in demands that we modify or cease existing business practices. In addition, the costs of compliance with, and other burdens imposed by, such laws, regulations and industry standards may adversely affect our customers’ ability or desire to collect, use, process and store personal information using our software solutions, which could reduce overall demand for them. Even the perception of privacy and data security concerns, whether or not valid, may inhibit market acceptance of our software solutions in certain verticals. Any of these outcomes could adversely affect our business and operating results.

 

We anticipate sustaining operating losses for the foreseeable future. It is anticipated that we will sustain operating losses until for the foreseeable future as we expand our team, continue with research and development, and strive to gain customers and gain market share in our industry. Our ability to become profitable depends on our ability to expand our customer base. There can be no assurance that this will occur. Unanticipated problems and expenses are often encountered in offering new products which may impact whether the Company is successful. Furthermore, we may encounter substantial delays and unexpected expenses related to development, technological changes, marketing, regulatory requirements and changes to such requirements or other unforeseen difficulties. There can be no assurance that we will ever become profitable. If the Company sustains losses over an extended period of time, it may be unable to continue in business.

 

If our products do not achieve broad acceptance both domestically and internationally, we will not be able to achieve our anticipated level of growth. Our revenues are derived from a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model for our products and technology. We cannot accurately predict the future growth rate or the size of the market for our products and technology. The expansion of the market for our solutions depends on a number of factors, such as:

 

·the cost, performance and reliability of our solutions and the products and services offered by our competitors;
·customers’ perceptions regarding the benefits of cloud-based video surveillance solutions;
·public perceptions regarding the intrusiveness of these solutions and the manner in which organizations use biometric and other identity information collected;
·public perceptions regarding the confidentiality of private information;
·proposed or enacted legislation related to privacy of information
·customers’ satisfaction our cloud-based video surveillance systems; and
·marketing efforts and publicity regarding our video surveillance solutions.

 

Even if our products and technology gains wide market acceptance, our solutions may not adequately address market requirements and may not continue to gain market acceptance. If cloud-based video surveillance solutions generally or our solutions specifically do not gain wide market acceptance, we may not be able to achieve our anticipated level of growth and our revenues and results of operations would suffer.

We operate in a highly competitive industry that is dominated by multiple very large, well-capitalized market leaders and is constantly evolving. New entrants to the market, existing competitor actions, or other changes in market dynamics could adversely impact us. The level of competition in the security industry is high, with multiple exceptionally large, well-capitalized competitors holding a majority share of the market, such as Tyco, Honeywell, Stanley, and Johnson Controls. Many of the companies in the video surveillance market have longer operating histories, larger customer bases, significantly greater financial, technological, sales, marketing, and other resources than we do. At any point, these companies may decide to devote their resources to creating a competing technology solution which will impact our ability to maintain or gain market share in this industry. Further, such companies will be able to respond more quickly than we can to new or changing opportunities, technologies, standards, or client requirements, more quickly develop new products or devote greater resources to the promotion and sale of their products and services than we can. Likewise, their greater capabilities in these areas may enable them to better withstand periodic downturns in the video surveillance industry and compete more effectively on the basis of price and production. In addition, new companies may enter the markets in which we compete, further increasing competition in the video surveillance industry.

 

We believe that our ability to compete successfully depends on a number of factors, including the type and quality of our products and the strength of our brand names, as well as many factors beyond our control. We may not be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors, and increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced profit margins, loss of market share and an inability to generate cash flows that are sufficient to maintain or expand the development and marketing of new products, any of which would adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition.

 

Successful infringement claims against us could result in significant monetary liability or prevent us from selling some of our products. We believe our products and technology may be highly disruptive to a very large and growing market. Our competitors are well capitalized with significant intellectual property protection and resources and they (and/or patent trolls) may initiate infringement lawsuits against our Company. Such litigation could be expensive and could also prevent us from selling our products, which would significantly harm our ability to grow our business as planned.

 

In order for the Company to compete and grow, it must attract, recruit, retain and develop the necessary personnel who have the needed experience. Recruiting and retaining highly qualified personnel, consultants and advisors is critical to our success. These demands may require us to hire additional personnel, consultants and advisors and will require our existing management personnel to develop additional expertise. We face intense competition for personnel, consultants and advisors. The failure to attract and retain personnel, consultants and advisors or to develop such expertise could delay or halt the development and commercialization of our product candidates. If we experience difficulties in hiring and retaining personnel in key positions, or in hiring consultants and advisors, we could suffer from delays in product development, loss of customers and sales and diversion of management resources, which could adversely affect operating results. Our consultants and advisors may be employed by third parties and may have commitments under consulting or advisory contracts with third parties that may limit their availability to us.

 

We rely on other companies to provide certain hardware and software for our products. We depend on these suppliers and subcontractors to meet our contractual obligations to our customers and conduct our operations. While we are not dependent on any one supplier for any of our hardware or software, our ability to meet our obligations to our customers may be adversely affected if suppliers or subcontractors do not provide the agreed-upon supplies or perform the agreed-upon services in compliance with customer requirements and in a timely and cost-effective manner. Likewise, the quality of our products may be adversely impacted if companies to whom we delegate manufacture of major components or subsystems for our products, or from whom we acquire such items, do not provide major components and subsystems which meet required specifications and perform to our and our customers’ expectations. If we encounter problems with one or more of these parties and they fail to perform to expectations, it could have a material adverse impact on the Company.

We plan to implement new lines of business or offer new products and services within existing lines of business. We plan on creating a new version of our cloud-based access control service and a new cloud door controller hardware device to go with it. Further, we plan on introducing new computer vision algorithms, such as face recognition and object detection, that must be executed at sustainable computational costs. We also plan on introducing machine learning algorithms that combine information from both access control and video surveillance systems. There are substantial risks and uncertainties associated with these efforts, both in the development of these new products and services, as well as the execution and delivery of these products and services to our customers. We may invest significant time and resources into these endeavors, and there is no guarantee we will be successful in our development and/or launch of such products and services. Initial timetables for the introduction and development of such new products or services may not be achieved and price and profitability targets may not prove feasible. We may not be successful in introducing these new products and services in response to industry trends or developments in technology, or those new products may not achieve market acceptance. As a result, we could lose business, be forced to price products and services on less advantageous terms to retain or attract clients, or be subject to cost increases. As a result, our business, financial condition or results of operations may be adversely affected.

 

Our future success is dependent on the continued service of our small management team. Three directors and three executive officers provide leadership to Cloudastructure. One of our directors is also an executive officer of the Company. Our success is dependent on their ability to manage all aspects of our business effectively. Because we are relying on our small management team, we lack certain business development resources that may hurt our ability to grow our business. Although we intend to grow our management team, there is no guarantee that newly added management team members will contribute to Cloudastructure as we hope. Any loss of key members of our executive team could have a negative impact on our ability to manage and grow our business effectively. We do not have employment agreements with any members of our senior management team, nor do we maintain a key person life insurance policy on any of the members of our senior management team. As a result, we would have no way to cover the financial loss if we were to lose the services of our directors or officers. Further, two of our executive officers, Gregory Rayzman and Craig Johnson, serve as officers of the Company on a part-time basis. As such, it is likely that the Company will not make the same progress as it would if these officers worked full-time at the Company.

 

The Company has multiple notes outstanding beyond their stated maturity date. The Company has previously made multiple issuances of promissory notes and convertible notes that remain outstanding beyond their stated maturity dates. To date, the Company has not received a demand for payment by holders of such notes – however, the holders of such notes may make a demand for payment at any time, which would make the outstanding balance due under such notes immediately due and payable. If such demands are made, it could significantly impair our ability to continue our operations. Further, our failure to pay any of these notes when due or upon demand may prevent us from being able to borrow additional amounts or sell additional securities to finance our business, which could have a significant impact on the Company’s ability to continue its operations.

 

Any valuation at this stage is difficult to assess. The valuation for this Offering was established by the Company. Unlike listed companies that are valued publicly through market-driven stock prices, the valuation of private companies, especially early-stage companies, is difficult to assess and you may risk overpaying for your investment.

 

Even if this Offering is successful, we will need to raise additional funding, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Failure to obtain this necessary capital when needed may force us to delay, limit or terminate our product development efforts or other operations. The proceeds from this Offering, excluding potential proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants sold in this Offering, will be up to $28,571,428 before deducting offering expenses payable by us. We expect that if the maximum sale of Units is achieved, the net proceeds from this Offering will be sufficient to fund our current operations for at least the next 48 months. However, we may not achieve the maximum sale of Units, and/or our operating plan may change as a result of many factors currently unknown to us, and we may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned, through public or private equity or debt financings, government or other third-party funding, marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances or a combination of these approaches. Raising funds in the current economic environment may present additional challenges. It is not certain that we have accounted for all costs and expenses of future development and regulatory compliance. Even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans, we may seek additional capital if market conditions are favorable or if we have specific strategic considerations.

A pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease in the United States may adversely affect our business. If a pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of an infectious disease occurs in the United States, our business may be adversely affected. In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, was identified in Wuhan, China. This virus continues to spread globally and, as of April 2020, has spread to over 50 countries, including the United States. The spread of an infectious disease, including COVID-19, may result in the inability of our suppliers to deliver components to us on a timely basis, or our service providers to continue providing services in an effective manner. Further, the spread of a disease such as COVID-19 could lead to unfavorable economic conditions, which would adversely impact our operations. The extent to which the coronavirus impacts our business will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the coronavirus and the actions to contain the coronavirus or treat its impact, among others.

 

Risks Related to the Securities in this Offering

 

This investment is illiquid. There is no currently established market for reselling these securities. If you decide that you want to resell these securities in the future, you may not be able to find a buyer. Although the Company intends to apply in the future for quotation of its Common Stock on a national exchange, over-the-counter market, or similar, exchange, there are a number of requirements that the Company may or may not be able to satisfy in a timely manner. Even if we obtain that quotation, we do not know the extent to which investor interest will lead to the development and maintenance of a liquid trading market. You should assume that you may not be able to liquidate your investment for some time or be able to pledge these shares as collateral.

 

Your ability to transfer your securities may be limited. The Subscription Agreement that investors will enter into, as well as the Warrants, each contain a “market stand-off” provision applicable to shares of the Class A Common Stock in the event of an initial public offering, which may limit or delay an investor’s ability to transfer shares of Class A Common Stock for a period of time surrounding such an offering. See “Securities Being Offered” for further information.

 

You will incur immediate and substantial dilution in the book value of your shares of Class A Common Stock. You will suffer immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of the shares of Class A Common Stock that you receive in this Offering. Assuming an offering price of $0.50 per share of Class A Common Stock, and assuming all the Units representing 57,142,856 shares of Class A Common Stock are sold, investors in this Offering will experience dilution of approximately $0.3975 per share of Class A Common Stock in net tangible book value of the Class A Common Stock. See the section entitled “Dilution” for further information.

DILUTION

 

Dilution means a reduction in value, control or earnings of the shares the investor owns.

 

Immediate dilution

 

An early-stage company typically sells its shares (or grants options over its shares) to its founders and early employees at a very low cash cost, because they are, in effect, putting their “sweat equity” into the company. When the Company seeks cash investments from outside investors, like you, the new investors typically pay a much larger sum for their shares than the founders or earlier investors, which means that the cash value of your stake is diluted because all the shares are worth the same amount, and you paid more than earlier investors for your shares.

 

The following table demonstrates the price that new investors are paying for their shares compared to the effective cash price paid by existing stockholders, giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split (as defined in “Securities Being Offered – Description of Capital Stock”), full conversion of all outstanding stock options and other convertible instruments (SAFE agreements and convertible notes), and assuming that the price per share of Class A Common Stock sold as a component of a Unit is $0.50 per share. The table presents shares and pricing as issued and reflects all transactions since inception, which gives investors a better picture of what they will pay for their investment compared to the Company’s insiders than just including such transactions for the last 12 months, which is what the SEC requires. The share numbers and amounts in this table assumes (1) conversion of all of the Company’s outstanding SAFEs (in the aggregate amount of $712,675); (2) conversion of outstanding convertible notes of the Company; and (3) exercise of all outstanding options into shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock at weighted average exercise price.

(1)Gives s effect to the Reverse Stock Split. All outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company prior to the Reverse Stock Split became shares of Class B Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split.
(2)This calculation of the effective cash price does not include any consideration to the Company other than cash, as the consideration for certain issuances of Common Stock (such as participation in an accelerator) are difficult to calculate and are therefore excluded from this calculation.
(3)Assumes conversion at exercise price of all outstanding options.
(4)Stock option pricing is the weighted average exercise price of outstanding options, including unvested shares.
(5)Represents shares issuable upon conversion based on the outstanding principal and interest of these notes. $84,668.80 in principal balance of these notes is convertible at the option of the holder into the shares of the Company offered in a financing in which the Company sells its equity securities. As such, this note may convert into shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company as a result of this Offering. The notes representing the remaining balance of this total are convertible into Preferred Stock of the Company, upon the occurrence of a qualified equity offering in which the Company sells shares of Preferred Stock. In instances in which the notes convert into shares of Preferred Stock, the Company has assumed that any future issuance of Preferred Stock will be convertible on a one-to-one basis into shares of Class A Common Stock, subject to certain conditions.
(6)Represents shares issuable upon conversion of notes based on a valuation cap of $4,500,000. These notes are convertible into Preferred Stock of the Company. The Company has assumed that any future issuance of Preferred Stock will be convertible on a one-to-one basis into shares of Class A Common Stock, subject to certain conditions.
(7)Represents shares issuable upon conversion of notes based on a valuation cap of $3,000,000. These notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock, which has not yet been authorized by the Company, upon the occurrence of a qualified equity offering. The Company has assumed that any future issuance of Preferred Stock will be convertible on a one-to-one basis into shares of Class A Common Stock, subject to certain conditions.
(8)Represents shares issuable upon conversion of notes based on a valuation cap of $6,000,000. $60,000 in principal balance of these notes is automatically convertible into shares of the Company offered in a financing in which the Company sells shares of its equity securities with an aggregate sales price of $1 million. As such, this note will convert into shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company as a result of this Offering. The notes representing the remaining balance of this total are convertible into Preferred Stock of the Company, upon the occurrence of a qualified equity offering in which the Company issues shares of Preferred Stock. The Company has not authorized any Preferred Stock as of the date of this Offering Circular. In instances in which the notes convert into shares of Preferred Stock, the Company has assumed that any future issuance of Preferred Stock will be convertible on a one-to-one basis into shares of Class A Common Stock, subject to certain conditions.
(9)Represents shares issuable upon conversion of notes based on a valuation cap of $7,000,000. $300,000 in principal balance of these notes is automatically convertible into shares of capital stock of the Company sold in an equity financing in which the Company receives total proceeds of $3,000,000. As such, if the Company raises $3,000,000 in this offering, this note will convert into Class A Common Stock of the Company. The notes representing the remaining balance of this total are convertible into shares of Preferred Stock of the Company, upon the occurrence of a qualified equity offering in which the Company issues shares of Preferred Stock. In instances in which the notes convert into shares of Preferred Stock, the Company has assumed that any future issuance of Preferred Stock will be convertible on a one-to-one basis into shares of Class A Common Stock, subject to certain conditions.
(10)Represents shares issuable upon conversion of SAFEs based on a valuation cap of $7,000,000. These SAFEs are convertible into shares of either the Company’s Class A Common Stock at the option of the Company, or the Preferred Stock of the Company issued pursuant to an equity financing in the future in which the Company authorizes and issues Preferred Stock. The Company has assumed that any future issuance of Preferred Stock will be convertible on a one-to-one basis into shares of Class A Common Stock, subject to certain conditions. The Company has elected to not convert these SAFEs into shares of Class A Common Stock in connection with this Offering.
(11)Represents shares issuable upon conversion of SAFEs based on a valuation cap of $9,000,000. These SAFEs are convertible into shares Preferred Stock of the Company issued pursuant to an equity financing in the future in which the Company authorizes and issues Preferred Stock. The Company has that any future issuance of Preferred Stock will be convertible on a one-to-one basis into shares of Class A Common Stock, subject to certain conditions. This Offering will not trigger the automatic conversion of these SAFEs.
(12)Represents shares issuable upon conversion of SAFEs based on a valuation cap of $10,000,000. These SAFEs are convertible into shares Preferred Stock of the Company issued pursuant to an equity financing in the future in which the Company authorizes and issued Preferred Stock. The Company has assumed that any future issuance of Preferred Stock will be convertible on a one-to-one basis into shares of Class A Common Stock, subject to certain conditions. This Offering will not trigger the automatic conversion of the SAFEs.
(13)Does not include shares of Class Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants issued in this Offering, which could result in the issuance of a maximum of 28,571,428 additional shares of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.75 per share.

Future dilution

 

Another important way of looking at dilution is the dilution that happens due to future actions by the company. The investor’s stake in a company could be diluted due to the company issuing additional shares. In other words, when the company issues more shares, the percentage of the company that you own will go down, even though the value of the company may go up. You will own a smaller piece of a larger company. This increase in number of shares outstanding could result from a stock offering (such as an initial public offering, another crowdfunding round, a venture capital round or an angel investment), employees exercising stock options, or by conversion of certain instruments (such as convertible bonds, preferred shares or warrants) into stock.

 

If the company decides to issue more shares, an investor could experience value dilution, with each share being worth less than before, and control dilution, with the total percentage an investor owns being less than before. There may also be earnings dilution, with a reduction in the amount earned per share (though this typically occurs only if the company offers dividends, and most early stage companies are unlikely to offer dividends, preferring to invest any earnings into the company).

 

The type of dilution that hurts early-stage investors most occurs when the company sells more shares in a “down round,” meaning at a lower valuation than in earlier offerings. An example of how this might occur is as follows (numbers are for illustrative purposes only):

 

  · In June 2018 Jane invests $20,000 for shares that represent 2% of a company valued at $1 million.

 

  · In December the company is doing very well and sells $5 million in shares to venture capitalists on a valuation (before the new investment) of $10 million. Jane now owns only 1.3% of the company but her stake is worth $200,000.

 

  · In June 2019 the company has run into serious problems and in order to stay afloat it raises $1 million at a valuation of only $2 million (the “down round”). Jane now owns only 0.89% of the company and her stake is worth only $26,660.

 

This type of dilution might also happen upon conversion of convertible notes into shares. Typically, the terms of convertible notes issued by early-stage companies provide that in the event of another round of financing, the holders of the convertible notes get to convert their notes into equity at a “discount” to the price paid by the new investors, i.e., they get more shares than the new investors would for the same price. Additionally, convertible notes may have a “price cap” on the conversion price, which effectively acts as a share price ceiling. Either way, the holders of the convertible notes get more shares for their money than new investors. In the event that the financing is a “down round” the holders of the convertible notes will dilute existing equity holders, and even more than the new investors do, because they get more shares for their money. Investors should pay careful attention to the amount of convertible notes that the company has issued (and may issue in the future, and the terms of those notes.

 

If you are making an investment expecting to own a certain percentage of the company or expecting each share to hold a certain amount of value, it’s important to realize how the value of those shares can decrease by actions taken by the company. Dilution can make drastic changes to the value of each share, ownership percentage, voting control, and earnings per share.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION AND SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS

 

Plan of Distribution

 

The Company is offering up to 28,571,428 Units on a “best efforts” basis at a price of $1.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of two (2) shares of Class A Common Stock and one (1) Warrant to purchase a share of Class A Common Stock. The shares of Class A Common Stock and the Warrants that are components of the Units will be immediately separable and issued separately but will be purchased together. The minimum subscription is $250, or 250 Units. Of the 85,714,284 shares of Class A Common Stock available under the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part, up to 28,571,428 of such shares are issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. Under Regulation A, the Company may only offer $50 million in Units, Warrants and shares of Class A Common Stock during a rolling 12-month period.

 

The Company intends to market the shares in this Offering both through online and offline means. Online marketing may take the form of contacting potential investors through electronic media and posting our Offering Circular or “testing the waters” materials on an online investment platform. This Offering Circular will be furnished to prospective investors via download 24 hours per day, 7 days per week on the Company’s website (www.cloudastructure.com) on a landing page that relates to the Offering, www.cloudastructure.com/investorrelations.

 

The Offering will terminate at the earlier of the date at which the maximum offering amount has been sold and the date at which the Offering is earlier terminated by the Company, in its sole discretion.

 

The Company may undertake one or more closings on an ongoing basis. After each closing, funds tendered by investors will be available to the Company.

 

The Company has engaged Dalmore Group, LLC (“Dalmore”), a broker-dealer registered with the SEC and a member of FINRA, to perform the following administrative and compliance related functions in connection with this Offering, but not for underwriting or placement agent services: 

 

  · Review investor information, including KYC (“Know Your Customer”) data, AML (“Anti Money Laundering”) and other compliance background checks, and provide a recommendation to the Company whether or not to accept investor as a customer;

 

  · Review each investor’s subscription agreement to confirm such investor’s participation in the Offering, and provide a determination to the Company whether or not to accept the use of the subscription agreement for the investor’s participation;

 

  · Contact and/or notify the Company, if needed, to gather additional information or clarification on an investor;

 

  · Not provide any investment advice nor any investment recommendations to any investor;

 

  · Keep investor details and data confidential and not disclose to any third-party except as required by regulators or pursuant to the terms of the agreement (e.g. as needed for AML and background checks); and

 

  · Coordinate with third party providers to ensure adequate review and compliance.

 

As compensation for the services listed above, the Company has agreed to pay Dalmore a $25,000 one-time advance set up fee to cover reasonable out-of-pocket accountable expenses actually anticipated to be incurred by Dalmore such as, among other things, preparing the FINRA filing in connection with this Offering. Dalmore will refund any fee related to this advance fee to the extent it is not used, incurred or provided to the Company. In addition, the Company has agreed to pay Dalmore a commission equal to 1% of the amount raised in the Offering to support the Offering once the SEC has qualified the Offering Statement and the Offering commences. Assuming a fully-subscribed offering for the Units and all Warrants are exercised, the Company estimates that total fees payable to Dalmore, including the one-time advance set up fee, would be $525,000.

Selling Security holders

 

No securities are being sold for the account of security holders; all net proceeds of this Offering will go to the Company.

 

Warrant Agent and Transfer Agent

 

We have engaged VStock Transfer, LLC (“VStock”) to act as the warrant agent for the Warrants pursuant to a Warrant Agency Agreement. We have also engaged VStock to act as our Transfer Agent for the Company’s securities.

 

Investors’ Tender of Funds

 

After the SEC has qualified the Offering Statement, the Company will accept tenders of funds to purchase the Common Stock. The Company may close on investments on a “rolling” basis (so not all investors will receive their securities on the same date). Investors may subscribe by tendering funds via ACH, debit or credit card, wire or check. Investors should note that processing of checks by financial institutions has been impacted by restrictions on businesses due to the coronavirus pandemic and may delay the processing and closing of subscriptions paid by check. Upon closing, funds tendered by investors will be made available to the Company for its use.

 

In order to invest you will be required to subscribe to the Offering at www.cloudastructure.com/investorrelations and agree to the terms of the Offering and the subscription agreement.

 

Upon confirmation that an investor’s funds have cleared, the Company will instruct the Transfer Agent to issue shares to the investor. The Transfer Agent will notify an investor when shares are ready to be issued and the Transfer Agent has set up an account for the investor.

  

In the event that it takes some time for the Company to raise funds in this Offering, the Company may rely on cash on hand, or may seek to raise funds by conducting a new offering of equity or debt securities.

 

Provisions of Note in Our Subscription Agreement

 

Restrictions on Transfer

 

The subscription agreement that investors will execute in connection with the Offering contains a “market stand-off” provision in the event of a proposed public offering. During the period, not to exceed 180 days, commencing on the effective date of a registration statement relating to the initial public offering (“IPO”) and ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing underwriter of the IPO, investors agree not to transfer any shares of Common Stock, or other securities of the Company held by the investor, or securities convertible or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter. Investors agree to execute any agreements as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters of the IPO to effect the market stand-off.

 

Forum Selection Provisions.

  

Section 6 of our subscription agreement (which appears as an exhibit to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part) provides that the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware is the exclusive forum for all actions or proceedings relating to the subscription agreement. However, this exclusive forum provision does not apply to actions arising under the federal securities laws.

THE COMPANY’S BUSINESS

 

Overview

 

Cloudastructure was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 28, 2003. Cloudastructure provides cloud-controlled physical infrastructure to enterprises in the form of video surveillance and access control in a cloud-model. We provide on-premises hardware that talks to a customer’s cameras and doors. Then we host a cloud solution that allows the customer to see their video (live and recorded) and manage which employee’s badge works on which door from anywhere. Since we are in the cloud, we have available computational resources that would be impractical to build and maintain at each customers' location. These computational resources allow us to provide more advanced AI (artificial intelligence) solutions than are possible in the legacy on-premises model. Such AI solutions include Tagger(tm) which tags all objects seen in a video so that users can search by tag (e.g. "person", "vehicle", "animal", etc.). Essentially, we are indexing our customers’ video surveillance and access control data to make for easy search, just like Google indexed the web for easy search. We also allow the user to use their phone for access instead of using a legacy Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) card or badge.

 

Our Background

 

Cloudastructure’s inception was the result of an incident of corporate theft at a previous company of our CEO and founder, Rick Bentley. At his previous venture-backed company in San Francisco during the dot-com boom, someone walked into his company’s headquarters, picked up a laptop with sensitive, confidential data of the company, and walked out the door. Although the company had installed an expensive video surveillance system, someone had unplugged the on-premises system during the theft, and as a result, there was no video of the incident. Systems like these are still the standard today – which is why Cloudastructure believes there is an opportunity to bring innovation and new technology to enhance the field of video surveillance security, and eliminate the weaknesses of today’s standard surveillance systems.

 

Cloudastructure, Inc. was originally incorporated as “Connexed Technologies, Inc” in 2003, and offered cloud video surveillance systems. On September 1, 2013, Connexed Technologies, Inc. and Reach Systems, Inc., which had been offering cloud access control since 2005, entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement pursuant to Connexed Technologies purchased all of the assets of Reach Systems Inc. The acquisition of Reach System’s Inc.’s assets allowed the Company to recognize the synergies of customer value with the bundling of video surveillance and access control delivered as a cloud-based service. The Company subsequently changed its name to “Cloudastructure, Inc.” on September 28, 2016.

 

Principal Products and Services

 

Cloudastructure’s solution centralizes the management of access control and video surveillance. The cloud model allows customers to scale geographically to multiple locations without complicated or insecure network settings. Cloudastructure can support a client’s installation efforts, helping the client get in touch with local installation partners or take turnkey responsibility for delivering the solution seamlessly. The service and support is provided for a monthly subscription, requiring no upfront licensing costs or large capital budgets. As the Company adds more artificial intelligence (e.g. doing what the guard at the front desk does: making sure a face matches the entry badge and that no one "piggybacks" in behind an authorized party without a badge), the Company believes that it will likely be able to increase pricing, in the future, for its cloud-based solution.

Small, medium and enterprise-sized business, and education markets

 

Product: Cloud Door Controller

 

Controls door access. It stores an “allow-list” (i.e. authorized personnel) locally in the device. It works if internet access is down, and is compatible with a majority of door hardware currently in use. It is network secure.

 

Small, medium and enterprise-sized business, and education markets

 

Our current process is as follows: first, we install our on-premises hardware that interfaces with the customer’s current video surveillance security system. Once installed, we are able to send all the video recorded by the customer’s system to our cloud. Once the video is with us, we have a unique advantage over all on-premises solutions - we can run it all through large GPU's (Graphics Processing Units, faster than CPU's at handling video) that are hosted by third parties running Machine Learning software that can start to see across 100's or 1,000's of cameras better than any single human can. Next, our cloud-based system can index all the objects and faces in the video. This means that the video can be searched by tag: person, animal, vehicle, etc. and even individual faces. Then, when our cloud-based system detects a person, it can attempt to match that person to a face in our database. If we can, we run that through a face recognition system, which allows a search to be conducted to locate a specific person, name, and face. This is what we are currently selling now.

 

Current higher-level features of our products and services, beyond our standard Video Surveillance and Access Control, include:

 

1.Tagger. Generates tags for every object it sees in the video. Things like “animal” or “person” or “vehicle”. Then, we let the customer search by tag. No more watching branches blow or cars drive by for an hour - just search by "person" and see only videos that have people in them.
2.Smartkey. Allows an employee’s phone to open a door. It's more secure, and people generally always have their phone with them, so less risk of lost keys. Also enables a person to see someone live on video and unlock the door for them if they're locked out, dropping off a package, etc.

 

Products and Services in Development

 

1.Computer Vision.
a.Face Recognition. Already working in development, Face Recognition tags all videos with faces recognized in them. You can search by known person (e.g. Patrick) or unknown person (e.g. Unknown123). "Hey, that guy right there who attacked that other person ... where else has he been on my campuses?"
b.Tailgate/Piggyback Prevention. One of the front desk guard's primary functions is making sure no one “tailgates” in behind someone else who is badging in. Unlike human guards, we can do this cost effectively on all the doors (side door, back door, document room, etc.) and not just the main lobby door. 
c.Pedestrian Counter.  Detecting the number of pedestrians waiting to cross a street to feed into traffic control systems.
d.Insurance Related Events.  Water on the floor, slip and falls, and other issues that if caught early can have savings much greater than the cost of a video surveillance system.
2.Door System. We have a 1.0 door system that we are going to upgrade to our 2.0 and then, once integrated, we will have unfettered access to the door events (e.g. card read, access granted, door opened). This will allow us to optimize tailgate/piggyback functionality.

Business Model

 

Cloudastructure operates under a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model. We found that we can compete with incumbents in this industry by pricing by the door and camera per year (e.g. $249/year per camera). We make more recurring revenue than they do while still providing a lower TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) to our customers. However, we believe our higher-level AI features will allow us to achieve security guard level pricing - which is much higher than what we charge now. We intend to benefit from this price elasticity.

 

The Cloudastructure hardware utilizes state of the art technology, delivered at a very competitive price that beats the industry standards and comes with zero maintenance or replacement costs with a lifetime warranty. Cloudastructure solution centralizes the management of access control with video monitoring and allows customers to scale geographically to multiple locations.

 

Distribution

 

Cloudastructure’s services require a physical installation of our on-premises hardware at the client’s desired location. Cloudastructure facilitates this installation – either delivering a turnkey solution to the client itself, or helping the client get in touch with local installation partners to make sure the process is handled smoothly. The service and support is provided for a monthly subscription, requiring no upfront licensing costs or capital budgets.

 

The Market

 

Cloudastructure considers itself to be in the video surveillance industry. According to a May 2019 study published by Allied Market Research, the global video surveillance market was valued at $28,184.0 million in 2017, and is projected to reach $87,361.8 million by 2025, growing at a CAGR of 14.2% from 2018 to 2025. Video surveillance systems can be used in nearly any environment. Security and surveillance are required for all organizations worldwide. Governments, enterprises, financial institutions, and healthcare organizations alike are all expected and required to have a certain level of security and monitoring measures. As a result, there has been an increase in the demand for security applications such as video surveillance to monitor and record borders, ports, transportation infrastructure, corporate houses, educational institutes, public places, buildings, and others, which is expected to drive the video surveillance market growth globally.

 

The increase in demand for security systems has also resulted in an increased demand for more advanced systems, such as Internet Protocol cameras, or IP cameras, which receive control data and send image data via the Internet. They are commonly used for surveillance but unlike analog closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras, they require no local recording device, only a local area network. IP security cameras send their signal over a network, allowing greater information transfer than an analog signal. A growth in transition from analog surveillance to IP cameras and integration of internet-of-things has fueled the growth of the video surveillance market size. However, factors such as high investment cost in data storage technologies and lack of professional expertise in handling IP cameras have hampered the market growth.

 

With its technological solutions that address problems historically faced in the video surveillance industry, Cloudastructure intends to capitalize on this growing need for sophisticated surveillance systems, targeting small, medium, and enterprise-sized businesses in any industry or market.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included in this Offering Circular. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.

 

Overview

 

Cloudastructure, Inc. is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company is headquartered in California. The Company is a technology retailer that focuses on intelligent devices and software for physical security applications.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

Net Revenues. Net revenues consist of revenue recognized from subscriptions to door and video services, and sales of controllers and recorders.

 

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold consists of hosting costs and the costs of controllers and recorders.

 

Operating Expenses.  Operating expenses consist of general and administrative expenses, which are primarily salaries and consulting costs, and sales and marketing expenses, which represent public relations, advertising and direct marketing costs.

 

Results of Operations

 

Net Revenues. The Company’s net revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 were $76,717 compared to $129,588 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 – a decrease of 40.8%, or $52,871. This decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in subscription revenues. In connection with this decrease in net revenues, the Company’s gross profits decreased 99.5% from $119,593 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 to $604 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019.

 

Operating Expenses. The Company’s operating expenses for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 were $453,085 compared to $301,370 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 – an increase of 50.3%, or $151,715. Operating expenses consisted almost entirely of general and administrative expenses for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 and 2019, and were comprised primarily of headcount and consulting costs. This increase in expenses was primarily the result of higher salary and consultant costs. 

 

Interest Expense. The Company’s interest expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 was $89,341 compared to $70,216 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 – an increase of 27.2%, or $19,125. This increase was primarily the result of increased interest on convertible notes, as the Company issued additional notes. (See “--Liquidity and Capital Resources” below.)

 

Other Income/Expense.  The Company’s other income/expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 was $0 compared to income of $1,088,030 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018. In 2018, the Company realized other income of $1,088,030 pertaining to the forgiveness of unpaid compensation owed to Rick Bentley, an officer of the Company. Mr. Bentley relinquished all rights to collect any of that forgiven unpaid compensation. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, Mr. Bentley is still owed $120,000 of unpaid compensation. The Company intends to use a portion of the net proceeds from this Offering to pay this compensation to Mr. Bentley.

 

Net Income. As a result of the foregoing, the Company suffered a net loss of $542,322 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, compared to net income of $835,031 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Since inception, the Company has relied on raising funds from the issuance of convertible notes and SAFEs to fund its business. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had working capital of $14,296 but could incur losses prior to generating additional positive working capital from operations. The Company also has an accumulated deficit in earnings since inception. During the next twelve months, the Company intends to fund its operations with funding from the issuance of SAFEs via a crowdfunding offering pursuant to Regulation Crowdfunding, issuance of the securities in this Offering, capital contributions from investors, and funds from revenue producing activities.

 

Issuance of Convertible Notes

 

In 2018 and prior years, the Company issued convertible notes in exchange for cash for the purpose of funding continuing operations (the “Notes”). The Notes accrue interest at the rate of four to six percent per annum and are convertible to equity at a pre-determined discount to market value under certain predefined conditions. Such conditions include a qualified equity financing, election by a majority of noteholders on the maturity date of the associated Notes to convert the Notes, or a sale of the Company.

 

As of December 31, 2019, the total outstanding principal balance of the Notes was $1,811,849. As of the date of this Offering Circular, the Company has $2,302,282.22 worth of Notes (including principal and accrued interest) outstanding beyond their stated maturity date. Under the default provisions of these Notes, of which a default results in acceleration of the Notes, and all principal and unpaid accrued interest becomes immediately due and payable. To date, the Company has not received a demand for payment by holders of such Notes – however, the holders of such Notes may make a demand for payment at any time.

 

Promissory Note With Optional Conversion

 

In December 2019, accounts payable of $92,730.50 from a vendor was converted into a promissory note. The note is repayable in December 2026, or upon a change of control if earlier, and bears no interest. The noteholder has the option to convert all or any portion of the balance into securities of the type issued in any financing of the Company, exercisable within thirty (30) days following the closing of such financing. The Company intends to use a portion of the net proceeds of this Offering to repay the promissory note.

 

Issuance of SAFES

 

On July 16, 2019, the Company completed a Regulation Crowdfunding offering in which it entered into SAFE agreements (Simple Agreement for Future Equity) with investors in exchange for cash investments totaling $380,725. The SAFE agreements have no interest rate or maturity date. The SAFE agreements are convertible at the option of the Company upon an equity financing of the Company in which $1,000,000 in net proceeds are received into shares of the Common Stock or Preferred Stock of the Company issued in such equity financing. The number of shares the SAFE agreements are convertible into is determined by whichever calculation provides for the greater number of shares between: A) an 80% discount to the pricing in the triggering equity financing; and B) the price implied by a $7,000,000 valuation cap divided by the capitalization of the Company (as defined in the agreements) at the triggering equity financing. As of December 31, 2019, the SAFE agreements have not yet converted. The Company does not intend to allow these SAFEs to convert into shares of Class A Common Stock.

 

On November 1, 2019, the Company commenced another Regulation Crowdfunding offering in which it is entering into SAFE Agreements with investors. The SAFE agreements become convertible into shares of Preferred Stock of the Company (currently none are authorized) issued in a future equity financing of the Company. The number of shares the SAFE agreements are convertible into is determined by whichever calculation provides for the greater number of shares between: A) an 80% discount to the pricing in the triggering equity financing; and B) the price implied by a $10,000,000 valuation cap divided by the capitalization of the Company (as defined in the agreements) at the triggering equity financing. For up to the first $100,000 raised in this offering, investors entered into a SAFE with the same terms, except for a lower valuation cap of $9,000,000. As of the date of this Offering Circular, the Company has raised $331,590 from the issuance of SAFEs to investors in this Offering. As of December 31, 2019, the SAFE agreements have not yet converted as a qualifying financing had not yet occurred. This Offering will not trigger the conversion of these SAFEs into shares of Class A Common Stock.

Subsequent Events

 

Sales of Common Stock

 

On February 20, 2020 the Company sold 30,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock to Richard Bentley, its Chief Executive Officer, for an aggregate purchase price of $6,000.

 

Trend Information

 

We have been primarily focused on research and development for the last two fiscal years, with less focus on sales, inventory, order book or costs and selling prices. However, we still generate a modest amount of sales, and we currently have several large partnership opportunities in play. If we are able to capitalize on these partnership opportunities, we expect that our sales and revenues will significantly increase.

 

A continuing trend we’ve identified is the increase of camera pixel counts. Only 10 years ago, a typical camera might have 640x480 pixels. Today a typical camera has 1920x1080 pixels – with some cameras having twice that pixel count in each dimension. The increase in pixel count means there is more to see and our computational resources go up commensurately. We have noticed from the beginning of our business operations that our computational resources tend to follow Moore's Law (computational power doubles every 18-24 months) and the pixel count increases significantly slower than that. This means that even though camera pixel counts continue to increase, which drives our computational load, the increase is slower than the rate at which computational resources become available to us. As such, we believe this trend will not cause any computational issues for us as these technological trends continue.

SECURITIES BEING OFFERED

 

The Company is offering up to 28,571,428 Units, each consisting of two (2) shares of Class A Common Stock and one (1) Warrant exercisable to purchase one (1) share of Class A Common Stock, at a price of $1.00 per Unit. Our Units will not be certificated and the shares of our Class A Common Stock and the Warrants that are components of such Units will be immediately separable and will be issued separately in this Offering.

 

The price of our Units has been arbitrarily established by us after giving consideration to numerous factors, including market conditions and the perceived valuations. The price of our Units may not be in any way indicative of the Company’s actual value or the value of the Class A Common Stock and/or the Warrants following the completion of this Offering.

 

Warrants

 

The following is a brief summary of certain terms and conditions of the Warrants included in the Units. The Warrants are subject in all respects to the provisions contained in the Warrants and the warrant agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”) between us and our warrant agent, VStock Transfer, LLC (the “Warrant Agent”), each filed as an exhibit to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part.

 

Form

 

The Warrants will be issued as individual warrants to purchasers of the Units.

 

Amount

 

Each purchaser of a Unit will receive a Warrant exercisable into one share of Class A Common Stock at a price of $0.75 per share, subject to customary adjustments.

 

Exercisability

 

Each Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock of the Company at any time commencing on the issuance date of the Warrant, and terminating at 5:00 p.m., Pacific Time, on the eighteen-month anniversary of the issuance date of the Warrant. The Warrants may be exercised upon delivery of an exercise notice at the offices of the Warrant Agent or by using a website that the Company will establish to permit online exercise. A Warrant holder may only exercise its warrants for a whole number of shares of Class A Common Stock. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of Warrants.

 

Transferability

 

Subject to applicable laws, the Warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned without our consent. Exercise of the Warrants will be conditional upon the Company maintaining the qualification of an offering statement covering such exercise. In addition, the Warrantholders will be subject to a “market stand-off” agreement in the event of a proposed public offering. During the period, not to exceed 180 days, commencing on the effective date of a registration statement relating to the IPO of the Company and ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing underwriter of the IPO, Warrantholders agree not to transfer any shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company held by the holders, or securities convertible or exercisable or exchangeable for securities of the Company, without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter. Warrantholders agree to execute any agreements as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters of the IPO to effect the market stand-off.

Rights as a Stockholder

 

Except as otherwise provided in the Warrants or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of our Class A Common Stock, the holder of a Warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of our Class A Common Stock, including any voting rights, until the holder exercises the Warrant.

 

Amendments

 

Except as set forth in the Warrant Agreement, the terms of a Warrant may be amended or waived with the written consent of the Company and the Warrantholder. The Company and the Warrant Agent may amend or supplement the Warrant Agreement without the consent of any holder for the purpose of (i) curing any ambiguity, or curing, correcting or supplementing any defective provision contained in the Warrant Agreement or the Warrants, (ii) evidencing the succession of another corporation to the Company and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Company contained in the Warrant agreement and the Warrants, (iii) evidencing and providing for the acceptance of appointment by a successor Warrant Agent with respect to the Warrants, (iv) adding to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Warrant holders or surrendering any right or power conferred upon the Company under the Warrant Agreement, or (viii) amending the Warrant Agreement and the Warrants in any manner that the Company may deem to be necessary or desirable and that will not adversely affect the interests of the Warrant holders in any material respect.

 

Description of Capital Stock

 

The following description summarizes the most important terms of the Company’s capital stock. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of Cloudastructure’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws, copies of which have been filed as exhibits to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular is a part. For a complete description of Cloudastructure’s capital stock, you should refer to the amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company and to the applicable provisions of Delaware law.

 

On or about April 10, 2020, the Company filed an amended and restated certificate of incorporation that a 1-for-20 reverse split of its outstanding Common Stock, and also designated two new classes of Common Stock – Class A and Class B (the “Reverse Stock Split”). All outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company prior to the Reverse Stock Split became shares of Class B Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split. Upon effecting the Reverse Stock Split, the authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 350,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, consisting of 250,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock and 100,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock. Immediately before the Reverse Stock Split, the outstanding number of shares of the Company was 59,617,776 shares of Common Stock. Immediately after the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, the Company’s outstanding capital stock was 2,980,888 shares of Class B Common Stock, and no shares of Class A Common Stock. We refer to the Class A and Class B Common Stock together as our “Common Stock”. The rights and preferences of the Common Stock are described below. As of immediately after the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split on or about April 10, 2020, the Company had 4,449,333 shares of Class B Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of options.

Liquidation Rights

 

In the event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, holders of the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock will be treated equally, identically and ratably, on a per share basis, with respect to any consideration into which such shares are converted or any consideration paid or otherwise distributed to stockholders of the Company.

 

Rights and Preferences

 

Except as set forth below, holders of our Common Stock have no preemptive, conversion, or other rights, and there are no redemptive or sinking fund provisions applicable to the Common Stock.

 

Conversion Terms of Class B Common Stock. The shares of Class B Common Stock are convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock as follows:

 

  ·

  ·

Automatic Conversion upon Transfer. Each share of Class B Common Stock is automatically convertible into one (1) share of Class A Common Stock upon transfer of such share by the holder of such share, subject to certain exceptions, such as transfers to certain entities or individuals permitted by the Company, transfers into a trust, retirement account, pension, other type of plan, or transfers into entities owned and controlled by the holder.

     
  ·

Restrictions on Transfer

 

The subscription agreement that investors will execute in connection with the Offering contains a “market stand-off” provision in the event of a proposed public offering. During the period, not to exceed 180 days, commencing on the effective date of a registration statement relating to the IPO and ending on the date specified by the Company and the managing underwriter of the IPO, investors agree not to transfer any shares of Common Stock, or other securities of the Company held by the investor, or securities convertible or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock without the prior written consent of the managing underwriter. Investors agree to execute any agreements as may be reasonably requested by the underwriters of the IPO to effect the market stand-off.

The SAFE agreements have no interest rate or maturity date. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources – Issuance of SAFEs.”

 

Certain of our SAFEs are convertible into shares of either the Company’s Class A Common Stock at the option of the Company, or the Preferred Stock of the Company issued pursuant to an equity financing in the future in which the Company authorizes and issues Preferred Stock. The Company has elected not to convert the SAFEs into shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock being offered as part of the Units in this Offering.

 

Certain of our SAFEs are convertible into shares of Preferred Stock of the Company issued pursuant to an equity financing by the Company in which the Company authorizes and issues Preferred Stock. This Offering will not trigger the automatic conversion of these SAFEs.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

 

March 31, 2020

 

To: Board of Directors, Cloudastructure, Inc.
  Attn: Rick Bentley
     
Re: 2019 Financial Statement Audit

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Cloudastructure, Inc. (a corporation organized in Delaware) (the “Company”), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related statements of income, stockholders’ equity/deficit, and cash flows for the calendar periods thus ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditor’s Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit of the Company’s financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Opinion

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations, shareholders’ equity/deficit and cash flows for the calendar year periods thus ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in the Notes to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's evaluation of the events and conditions and management's plans regarding these matters are also described in the Notes to the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

 

Sincerely,

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Calendar years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018

See accompanying Independent Auditor’s Report

 

 

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Cloudastructure, Inc. (“the Company”) is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company is headquartered in California. The Company is a technology retailer that focuses on intelligent devices and software for physical security applications.

 

Since inception, the Company has relied on raising convertible loans to fund its business.  As of December 31, 2019, the Company had working capital of $14,296 but could incur losses prior to generating additional positive working capital from operations.  The Company also has an accumulated deficit in earnings since inception. These matters raise substantial concern about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  During the next twelve months, the Company intends to fund its operations with funding from a crowdfunding campaign, an offering under Regulation A, capital contributions from investors and funds from revenue producing activities if any.  These financial statements and related notes thereto do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.

 

 

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements for the years presented have been included.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the footnotes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company has a limited operating history. The Company's business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the United States. A host of factors beyond the Company's control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse conditions may include: recession, downturn or otherwise, changes in regulations or restrictions in imports, competition or changes in consumer taste. These adverse conditions could affect the Company's financial condition and the results of its operations. As of December 31, 2019, the Company is operating as a going concern. See Notes 1 and 8 for additional information.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash consists of funds held in the Company’s checking account. The Company maintains its cash with a major financial institution located in the United States of America, which it believes to be credit worthy. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insures balances up to $250,000. At times, the Company may maintain balances in excess of the federally insured limits. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company had $2,892 and $8,498 cash on hand, respectively.

 

 

 

 F-6 
 

 

Receivables and Credit Policy

Trade receivables from customers are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms, primarily requiring payment before services are rendered. Trade receivables are stated at the amount billed to the customer. Payments of trade receivables are allocated to the specific invoices identified on the customer’s remittance advice or, if unspecified, are applied to the earliest unpaid invoice. The Company, by policy, routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers. As a result, the Company believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure is limited and it has not experienced any significant write-downs in its accounts receivable balances. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company had $11,405 and $32,574 in accounts receivable, respectively. Based on the creditworthiness of its customers and the history of collections, the Company has not accrued for any bad debts as of these dates.

 

Sales Taxes

Various states impose a sales tax on the Company’s sales to non-exempt customers. The Company collects the sales tax from customers and remits the entire amount to each respective state. The Company’s accounting policy is to exclude the tax collected and remitted to the states from revenue and cost of sales.

 

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost if the expenditure exceeds $1,000. Expenditures for renewals and improvements that significantly add to the productive capacity or extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When equipment is retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the balance sheet accounts and the resultant gain or loss is reflected in income.

 

Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method, based on useful lives of the assets which range from three to fifteen years depending on the asset type.

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company maintained very few fixed assets.

 

Fair Value Measurements

The Company has determined the fair value of certain assets and liabilities in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), which provides a framework for measuring fair value.

 

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

 

A fair value hierarchy has been established, which prioritizes the valuation inputs into three broad levels. Level 1 inputs consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the related asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs related to the asset or liability.

 

 

 

 F-7 
 

 

Income Taxes

The Company is taxed as a C corporation. The Company complies with FASB ASC 740 for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. FASB ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements. The Company believes that its income tax positions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to its financial position.

 

The Company has incurred taxable losses since inception but is current in its tax filing obligations. The Company is not presently subject to any income tax audit in any taxing jurisdiction.

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the fee for the arrangement is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

Sales and Marketing Expenses

The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." ASU No. 2014-09 contains a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. Under this guidance, revenue is recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received for those goods or services. The updated standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Early adoption is permitted for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The updated standard for nonpublic entities will be effective after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In February 2017, FASB issued ASU No. 2017-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” that requires organizations that lease assets, referred to as "lessees," to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. ASU 2017-02 will also require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases and will include qualitative and quantitative requirements. The new standard for nonpublic entities will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In August 2017, FASB issued ASU No. 2017-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230).” ASU 2017-15 provides classification guidance for certain cash receipts and cash payments including payment of debt extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments, insurance claim payments and distributions from equity method investees. The standard is effective on January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

 

 

 

 F-8 
 

 

In May 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-09, “Compensation- Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting, clarifies such that an entity must apply modification accounting to changes in the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award unless all of the following criteria are met: (1) the fair value of the modified award is the same as the fair value of the original award immediately before the modification. The ASU indicates that if the modification does not affect any of the inputs to the valuation technique used to value the award, the entity is not required to estimate the value immediately before and after the modification; (2) the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the modification; and (3) the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the modification. The ASU is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

 

The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been a number of ASUs to date, including those above, that amend the original text of ASC. Management believes that those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to the Company, or (iv) are not expected to have a material impact the Company’s financial statements.

 

 

NOTE 3 – INCOME TAX PROVISION

 

As discussed above, the Company is a C corporation for federal income tax purposes. The Company has incurred tax losses since inception, however valuation allowances has been established against the deferred tax assets associated with the carryforwards of those losses as there does not yet exist evidence the deferred tax assets created by those losses will ever by utilized.

 

Tax returns once filed which will remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service under the statute of limitations for a period of three years from the date it is filed.

 

The Company is subject to franchise and income tax filing requirements in the State of California. The Company’s tax filings in the State of California for 2017, 2018, and 2019 will remain subject to review by that State until 2021, 2022, and 2023, respectively.

 

The Company is obligated to collect and remit sales taxes on certain sales made within or shipped to end users in the State of California. The Company’s sales tax filings for the State of California are generally subject to review by that State for three years after the date filed.

 

 

NOTE 4 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES

 

In 2018 and prior years, the Company issued convertible notes in exchange for cash for the purpose of funding continuing operations (the “Notes”). The Notes accrue interest at the rate of four to six percent per annum and are convertible to equity at a pre-determined discount to market value under certain predefined conditions. Such conditions include a qualified equity financing, election by a majority of noteholders on the maturity date of the associated Notes, or a sale of the Company.

 

 

 

 F-9 
 

 

NOTE 5 – OTHER NON-CURRENT LIABILITIES

 

In December 2019, accounts payable of $92,731 from a vendor were converted into a promissory note. The note is repayable in December 2026, or upon a change of control if earlier, and bears no interest.

 

 

NOTE 6 – OTHER INCOME

 

In 2018, the Company realized a gain of $1,088,030 pertaining to the forgiveness of unpaid compensation owed to an officer, Rick Bentley, of the Company. This unpaid compensation had been previously categorized as an accrued expense in 2017. The officer has irrevocably and without condition relinquished all rights to collect any of that forgiven unpaid compensation. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the officer is still owed $120,000 of unpaid compensation which is categorized as accrued expenses.

 

 

NOTE 7 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Legal Matters

The Company is not currently involved in or aware of threats of any litigation.

 

 

NOTE 8 – GOING CONCERN

 

These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. The Company began operation several years ago and incurred a cumulative loss for the period from inception through December 31, 2018. The Company’s ability to continue is dependent upon management’s plan to raise additional funds (see Note 9), capital contributions from investors and the ability to achieve profitable operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is not able to continue as a going concern.

 

 

NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Management Considering a Securities Offering

During 2020, the Company is considering offering Class A common stock (see below) in an offering exempt from registration under Regulation A. The provisions of Regulation A allow an issuer to offer securities for up to $50,000,000. The Company has not yet committed to such an offering but would require qualification by the US Securities and Exchange Commission prior to doing so.

 

Reverse Stock Split

In 2020, the Company is nearing the completion of a 20-for-1 reverse stock split of its common shares. After the reverse split, the common shares will be designated Class B shares and will have 20 times the voting rights of any newly issued Class A shares.

 

Management’s Evaluation

Management has evaluated subsequent events through March 31, 2020, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.  Based on this evaluation, no additional material events were identified which require adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

BYLAWS OF CONNEXED TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

___________________________

 

ARTICLE I - CORPORATE OFFICES

1.1              REGISTERED OFFICE. 

 

The registered office of Connexed Technologies, Inc. shall be fixed in the corporation’s certificate of incorporation, as the same may be amended from time to time.

 

1.2              OTHER OFFICES. 

 

The corporation’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) may at any time establish other offices at any place or places where the corporation is qualified to do business.

 

ARTICLE II - MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS

 

2.1              PLACE OF MEETINGS. 

 

Meetings of stockholders shall be held at any place, within or outside the State of Delaware, designated by the Board. The Board may, in its sole discretion, determine that a meeting of stockholders shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication as authorized by Section 211(a)(2) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”). In the absence of any such designation or determination, stockholders’ meetings shall be held at the corporation’s principal executive office.

 

2.2              ANNUAL MEETING. 

 

The annual meeting of stockholders shall be held each year. The Board shall designate the date and time of the annual meeting. In the absence of such designation the annual meeting of stockholders shall be held on the second Tuesday of May of each year at 10:00 a.m. However, if such day falls on a legal holiday, then the meeting shall be held at the same time and place on the next succeeding business day. At the annual meeting, directors shall be elected and any other proper business may be transacted.

 

2.3              SPECIAL MEETING. 

 

A special meeting of the stockholders may be called at any time by the Board, chairperson of the Board, chief executive officer or president (in the absence of a chief executive officer) or by one or more stockholders holding shares in the aggregate entitled to cast not less than 10% of the votes at that meeting.

 

If any person(s) other than the Board calls a special meeting, the request shall:

 

(i)                be in writing;

 

(ii)               specify the time of such meeting and the general nature of the business proposed to be transacted; and

 

 

 

 1 

 

 

 

(iii)             be delivered personally or sent by registered mail or by facsimile transmission to the chairperson of the Board, the chief executive officer, the president (in the absence of a chief executive officer) or the secretary of the corporation.

 

The officer(s) receiving the request shall cause notice to be promptly given to the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting, in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.4 and 2.5 of these bylaws, that a meeting will be held at the time requested by the person or persons calling the meeting. No business may be transacted at such special meeting other than the business specified in such notice to stockholders. Nothing contained in this paragraph of this Section 2.3 shall be construed as limiting, fixing, or affecting the time when a meeting of stockholders called by action of the Board may be held.

 

2.4              NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDERS’ MEETINGS. 

 

All notices of meetings of stockholders shall be sent or otherwise given in accordance with either Section 2.5 or Section 8.1 of these bylaws not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting. The notice shall specify the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called.

 

2.5              MANNER OF GIVING NOTICE; AFFIDAVIT OF NOTICE. 

 

Notice of any meeting of stockholders shall be given:

 

(i)                 if mailed, when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the stockholder at his or her address as it appears on the corporation’s records; or

 

(ii)               if electronically transmitted as provided in Section 8.1 of these bylaws.

 

An affidavit of the secretary or an assistant secretary of the corporation or of the transfer agent or any other agent of the corporation that the notice has been given by mail or by a form of electronic transmission, as applicable, shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.

 

2.6              QUORUM. 

 

The holders of a majority of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at all meetings of the stockholders. If, however, such quorum is not present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, then either (i) the chairperson of the meeting, or (ii) the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum is present or represented. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum is present or represented, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally noticed.

 

2.7              ADJOURNED MEETING; NOTICE. 

 

When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, unless these bylaws otherwise require, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time, place if any thereof, and the means of remote communications if any by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the continuation of the adjourned meeting, the corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

 

 

 

 2 

 

 

 

2.8             CONDUCT OF BUSINESS 

 

The chairperson of any meeting of stockholders shall determine the order of business and the procedure at the meeting, including such regulation of the manner of voting and the conduct of business.

 

2.9             VOTING. 

 

The stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.11 of these bylaws, subject to Section 217 (relating to voting rights of fiduciaries, pledgors and joint owners of stock) and Section 218 (relating to voting trusts and other voting agreements) of the DGCL.

 

Except as may be otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, each stockholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share of capital stock held by such stockholder.

 

2.10          STOCKHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITHOUT A MEETING. 

 

Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation, any action required by the DGCL to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of a corporation, or any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice, and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted.

 

Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take the action were delivered to the corporation as provided in Section 228 of the DGCL. In the event that the action which is consented to is such as would have required the filing of a certificate under any provision of the DGCL, if such action had been voted on by stockholders at a meeting thereof, the certificate filed under such provision shall state, in lieu of any statement required by such provision concerning any vote of stockholders, that written consent has been given in accordance with Section 228 of the DGCL.

 

2.11          RECORD DATE FOR STOCKHOLDER NOTICE; VOTING; GIVING CONSENTS. 

 

In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board may fix, in advance, a record date, which record date shall not precede the date on which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted and which shall not be more than 60 nor less than 10 days before the date of such meeting, nor more than 60 days prior to any other such action.

 

 

 

 3 

 

 

If the Board does not so fix a record date:

 

(i)                 The record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held.

 

(ii)               The record date for determining stockholders entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board is necessary, shall be the day on which the first written consent is expressed.

 

(iii)              The record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto.

 

A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

 

2.12          PROXIES. 

 

Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy authorized by an instrument in writing or by a transmission permitted by law filed in accordance with the procedure established for the meeting, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. The revocability of a proxy that states on its face that it is irrevocable shall be governed by the provisions of Section 212 of the DGCL.

 

2.13          LIST OF STOCKHOLDERS ENTITLED TO VOTE. 

 

The officer who has charge of the stock ledger of the corporation shall prepare and make, at least 10 days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. The corporation shall not be required to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting: (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the corporation’s principal executive office. In the event that the corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then the list shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting. Such list shall presumptively determine the identity of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting and the number of shares held by each of them.

ARTICLE III - DIRECTORS

 

3.1              POWERS. 

 

Subject to the provisions of the DGCL and any limitations in the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws relating to action required to be approved by the stockholders or by the outstanding shares, the business and affairs of the corporation shall be managed and all corporate powers shall be exercised by or under the direction of the Board.

 

3.2              NUMBER OF DIRECTORS. 

 

The authorized number of directors shall be determined from time to time by resolution of the Board, provided the Board shall consist of at least one member. No reduction of the authorized number of directors shall have the effect of removing any director before that director’s term of office expires.

 

3.3              ELECTION, QUALIFICATION AND TERM OF OFFICE OF DIRECTORS.

 

Except as provided in Section 3.4 of these bylaws, directors shall be elected at each annual meeting of stockholders to hold office until the next annual meeting. Directors need not be stockholders unless so required by the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws. The certificate of incorporation or these bylaws may prescribe other qualifications for directors. Each director, including a director elected to fill a vacancy, shall hold office until such director’s successor is elected and qualified or until such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal.

 

All elections of directors shall be by written ballot, unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation; if authorized by the Board, such requirement of a written ballot shall be satisfied by a ballot submitted by electronic transmission, provided that any such electronic transmission must be either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the electronic transmission authorized by the stockholder or proxy holder.

 

3.4              RESIGNATION AND VACANCIES.

 

Any director may resign at any time upon notice given in writing or by electronic transmission to the corporation. When one or more directors so resigns and the resignation is effective at a future date, a majority of the directors then in office, including those who have so resigned, shall have power to fill such vacancy or vacancies, the vote thereon to take effect when such resignation or resignations shall become effective, and each director so chosen shall hold office as provided in this section in the filling of other vacancies.

 

Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws:

 

(i)                Vacancies and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors elected by all of the stockholders having the right to vote as a single class may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director.

 

(ii)               Whenever the holders of any class or classes of stock or series thereof are entitled to elect one or more directors by the provisions of the certificate of incorporation, vacancies and newly created directorships of such class or classes or series may be filled by a majority of the directors elected by such class or classes or series thereof then in office, or by a sole remaining director so elected.

The Board, subject to any restrictions contained in either (i) the DGCL, or (ii) the certificate of incorporation, may declare and pay dividends upon the shares of its capital stock. Dividends may be paid in cash, in property, or in shares of the corporation’s capital stock.

 

The Board may set apart out of any of the funds of the corporation available for dividends a reserve or reserves for any proper purpose and may abolish any such reserve. Such purposes shall include but not be limited to equalizing dividends, repairing or maintaining any property of the corporation, and meeting contingencies.

 

7.8              FISCAL YEAR. 

 

The fiscal year of the corporation shall be fixed by resolution of the Board and may be changed by the Board.

7.11          STOCK TRANSFER AGREEMENTS.

7.13          WAIVER OF NOTICE.

 

Whenever notice is required to be given under any provision of the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, a written waiver, signed by the person entitled to notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time of the event for which notice is to be given, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders need be specified in any written waiver of notice or any waiver by electronic transmission unless so required by the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws.

 

ARTICLE VIII - NOTICE BY ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION

 

8.1              NOTICE BY ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION. 

 

Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders pursuant to the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, any notice to stockholders given by the corporation under any provision of the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is given. Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice to the corporation. Any such consent shall be deemed revoked if:

 

 

 

 

 15 

 

 

(i)                 the corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the corporation in accordance with such consent; and

 

(ii)               such inability becomes known to the secretary or an assistant secretary of the corporation or to the transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice.

 

However, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.

 

Any notice given pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall be deemed given:

 

(i)                 if by facsimile telecommunication, when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice;

 

(ii)                if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice;

 

(iii)               if by a posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, upon the later of (A) such posting and (B) the giving of such separate notice; and

 

(iv)                if by any other form of electronic transmission, when directed to the stockholder.

 

An affidavit of the secretary or an assistant secretary or of the transfer agent or other agent of the corporation that the notice has been given by a form of electronic transmission shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.

 

8.2              DEFINITION OF ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION.

 

An “electronic transmission” means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved, and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process.

 

8.3              INAPPLICABILITY.

 

Notice by a form of electronic transmission shall not apply to Sections 164, 296, 311, 312 or 324 of the DGCL.

In any such action the corporation shall have the burden of proving that the claimant was not entitled to the requested indemnification or payment of expenses under applicable law.

 

 

 

 

 17

Warrant to Purchase

[_______] Shares of

Class A Common Stock

(subject to adjustment)

 

THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, [insert name of warrant holder], or its registered assigns (the “Holder”), is entitled to purchase from Cloudastructure, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Shares”), in the amounts, at such times and at the price per share set forth in Section 1, subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Warrant Agreement dated as of ______, 2020 (the “Warrant Agreement”) between the Company and VStock Transfer, LLC (the “Warrant Agent”). The term “Warrant” as used herein shall include this Warrant and any warrants delivered in substitution or exchange therefor as provided herein. This Warrant is issued as part of an offering of securities by the Company pursuant to Regulation A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to an offering circular dated ______, 2020 as supplemented or amended and the Subscription Agreement between the Company and the Holder [dated _______, 2020]].

 

The following is a statement of the rights of the Holder and the conditions to which this Warrant is subject, and to which Holder, by acceptance of this Warrant, agrees:

 

1.                  Number and Price of Shares; Exercise Period.

 

(a)                Number of Shares. Subject to any previous exercise of the Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to purchase up to [__________] Shares.

 

(b)                Exercise Price. The exercise price per Share shall be $0.75, subject to adjustment pursuant hereto (the “Exercise Price”).

 

(c)                Exercise Period. This Warrant shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, after the date of this Warrant and prior to (or in connection with) the expiration of this Warrant as set forth in Section 8.

 

 

 

 

 1 
 

 

2.                  Exercise of the Warrant.

 

(a)                Exercise. The purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised at the election of the Holder, in whole or in part, by:

 

(i)            the tender to the Warrant Agent at its principal office (or such other office or agency as the Warrant Agent may designate) of a notice of exercise in the form of Exhibit A (the “Notice of Exercise”), duly completed and executed by or on behalf of the Holder, together with the surrender of this Warrant; and

 

(ii)            the payment to the Company of an amount equal to (x) the Exercise Price multiplied by (y) the number of Shares being purchased, by ACH, wire transfer, debit card, credit card or check and payable to the order of the Company.

 

(b)               Stock Certificates. The rights under this Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and the Shares issuable upon such exercise shall be deemed to have been issued immediately prior to the close of business on the date this Warrant is exercised in accordance with its terms, and the person entitled to receive the Shares issuable upon such exercise shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of such Shares as of the close of business on such date. As promptly as reasonably practicable on or after such date, the Company shall cause to be issued and delivered to the person or persons entitled to receive the same a certificate or certificates (or a notice of issuance of uncertificated shares, if applicable) for that number of shares issuable upon such exercise. In the event that the rights under this Warrant are exercised in part and have not expired, the Company and Warrant Agent shall execute and deliver a new Warrant reflecting the number of Shares that remain subject to this Warrant.

 

(c)                No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of the rights under this Warrant. In lieu of such fractional share to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall make a cash payment equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by such fraction.

 

(d)               Conditional Exercise. The Holder may exercise this Warrant conditioned upon (and effective immediately prior to) consummation of any transaction that would cause the expiration of this Warrant pursuant to Section 8 by so indicating in the notice of exercise.

 

(e)                Reservation of Stock. The Company agrees during the term the rights under this Warrant are exercisable to take all reasonable action to reserve and keep available from its authorized and unissued shares of common stock solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of this Warrant such number of shares as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the exercise of the rights under this Warrant; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of common stock shall not be sufficient for purposes of the exercise of this Warrant in accordance with its terms, without limitation of such other remedies as may be available to the Holder, the Company will use reasonable commercial efforts to take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized and unissued shares of its common stock to a number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes. The Company represents and warrants that all shares that may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant will, when issued in accordance with the terms hereof, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

 

(f)                Qualification of Stock. The Company agrees that it shall use its best efforts to maintain the qualification of its offering statement (SEC File No. _______), and a current offering circular relating thereto, until the expiration of the Warrants in accordance with the provisions of Section 8 of this Warrant. In addition, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to register the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants under state blue sky laws, to the extent an exemption is not available.

3.                  Replacement of the Warrant. Subject to the receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company or, in the case of mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at the expense of the Holder may issue and the Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent shall countersign and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor and amount.

 

4.                  Transfer of the Warrant.

 

(a)                Warrant Register. Pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Warrant Agreement, the Warrant Agent, on behalf of the Company, shall maintain a register (the “Warrant Register”) containing the name and address of the Holder or Holders. Until this Warrant is transferred on the Warrant Register in accordance herewith, the Company may treat the Holder as shown on the Warrant Register as the absolute owner of this Warrant for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any Holder of this Warrant (or of any portion of this Warrant) may change its address as shown on the Warrant Register by written notice to the Warrant Agent requesting a change.

 

(b)               Transferability of the Warrant. Subject to the provisions of this Warrant with respect to compliance with the Securities Act and limitations on assignments and transfers, including without limitation compliance with the provisions of Section 5, title to this Warrant may be transferred by endorsement (by the transferor and the transferee executing the assignment form attached as Exhibit B (the “Assignment Form”)) and delivery in the same manner as a negotiable instrument transferable by endorsement and delivery.

 

(c)                Exchange of the Warrant upon a Transfer. On surrender of this Warrant (and a properly endorsed Assignment Form) for exchange, subject to the provisions of this Warrant with respect to compliance with the Securities Act and limitations on assignments and transfers, the Warrant Agent shall issue to or on the order of the Holder a new warrant or warrants of like tenor, in the name of the Holder or as the Holder (on payment by the Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, for the number of shares issuable upon exercise hereof, and the Warrant Agent shall register any such transfer upon the Warrant Register. This Warrant (and the securities issuable upon exercise of the rights under this Warrant) must be surrendered to the Warrant Agent, as a condition precedent to the sale, pledge, hypothecation or other transfer of any interest in any of the securities represented hereby.

 

(d)               Taxes. In no event shall the Company be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of any certificate, or a book entry, in a name other than that of the Holder, and the Warrant Agent shall not be required to issue or deliver any such certificate, or make such book entry, unless and until the person or persons requesting the issue or entry thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

 

5.                  Compliance with Securities Laws; Market Stand-off. By acceptance of this Warrant, the Holder agrees to comply with the following:

 

(a)                Securities Laws. Except as specifically set forth in this Section 5, this Warrant may not be transferred or assigned in whole or in part, and any such attempt by Holder to transfer or assign any rights, duties or obligations that arise under this Warrant shall be void. Any transfer of this Warrant or the Shares (the “Securities”) must be in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws. The Holder agrees not to make any sale, assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition of all or any portion of the Securities, or any beneficial interest therein, unless and until such Holder shall have given prior written notice to the Company of such Holder’s intention to make such disposition.

 

 

 

 

 3 
 

 

(b)                Investment Representation Statement. Unless the rights under this Warrant are exercised pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act that includes the Shares with respect to which the Warrant was exercised, it shall be a condition to any exercise of the rights under this Warrant that the Holder shall have executed the Investment Representation Statement, substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1.

 

(c)                Market Stand-off Legend. Each certificate, instrument or book entry representing the Shares issued upon exercise hereof shall also be notated with a legend in substantially the following form:

 

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE, INCLUDING A LOCK-UP PERIOD IN THE EVENT OF A PUBLIC OFFERING, AS SET FORTH IN THE WARRANT PURSUANT TO WHICH THESE SHARES WERE ISSUED, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY.

 

6.                  Adjustments. Subject to the expiration of this Warrant pursuant to Section 8, the number and kind of shares purchasable hereunder and the Exercise Price therefor are subject to adjustment from time to time, as follows:

 

(a)                Merger or Reorganization. If at any time there shall be any reorganization, recapitalization, merger or consolidation (a “Reorganization”) involving the Company (other than as otherwise provided for herein or as would cause the expiration of this Warrant under Section 8) in which shares of the Company’s stock are converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property, then, as a part of such Reorganization, lawful provision shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property of the successor corporation resulting from such Reorganization, equivalent in value to that which a holder of the Shares deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled in such Reorganization if the right to purchase the Shares hereunder had been exercised immediately prior to such Reorganization. In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the successor corporation) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder after such Reorganization to the end that the provisions of this Warrant shall be applicable after the event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other securities deliverable after that event upon the exercise of this Warrant.

 

(b)               Reclassification of Shares. If the securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are changed into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes by reclassification, capital reorganization or otherwise (other than as otherwise provided for herein) (a “Reclassification”), then, in any such event, in lieu of the number of Shares which the Holder would otherwise have been entitled to receive, the Holder shall have the right thereafter to exercise this Warrant for a number of shares of such other class or classes of stock that a holder of the number of securities deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately before that change would have been entitled to receive in such Reclassification, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein with respect to such other shares.

 

(c)                Subdivisions and Combinations. In the event that the outstanding shares of common stock are subdivided (by stock split, by payment of a stock dividend or otherwise) into a greater number of shares of such securities, the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the rights under this Warrant immediately prior to such subdivision shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such subdivision, be proportionately increased, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased, and in the event that the outstanding shares of common stock are combined (by reclassification or otherwise) into a lesser number of shares of such securities, the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the rights under this Warrant immediately prior to such combination shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such combination, be proportionately decreased, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased.

 

 

 

 

 4 
 

 

(d)               Notice of Adjustments. Upon any adjustment in accordance with this Section 6, the Company shall give notice thereof to the Holder, which notice shall state the event giving rise to the adjustment, the Exercise Price as adjusted and the number of securities or other property purchasable upon the exercise of the rights under this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation of each. The Company shall, upon the written request of any Holder, furnish or cause to be furnished to such Holder a certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments, (ii) the Exercise Price at the time in effect and (iii) the number of securities and the amount, if any, of other property that at the time would be received upon exercise of this Warrant.

 

7.                  Notification of Certain Events. Prior to the expiration of this Warrant pursuant to Section 8, in the event that the Company shall authorize:

 

(a)                the issuance of any dividend or other distribution on the capital stock of the Company (other than (i) dividends or distributions otherwise provided for in Section 6, (ii) repurchases of common stock issued to or held by employees, officers, directors or consultants of the Company or its subsidiaries; or (iii) repurchases of capital stock of the Company in connection with the settlement of disputes with any stockholder), whether in cash, property, stock or other securities;

 

(b)               the voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company; or

 

(c)                any transaction resulting in the expiration of this Warrant pursuant to Section 8(b) or 8(c),

the Company shall send to the Holder of this Warrant at least ten (10) days prior written notice of the date on which a record shall be taken for any such dividend or distribution specified in clause (a) or the expected effective date of any such other event specified in clause (b) or (c), as applicable. The notice provisions set forth in this section may be shortened or waived prospectively or retrospectively by the consent of the Holder of this Warrant.

 

8.                  Expiration of the Warrant. This Warrant shall expire and shall no longer be exercisable as of the earlier of:

 

(a)                5:00 p.m., Pacific time, on the eighteen-month anniversary of the date of this Warrant;

 

(b)               (i) the acquisition of the Company by another entity by means of any transaction or series of related transactions to which the Company is a party (including, without limitation, any stock acquisition, reorganization, merger or consolidation, but excluding any sale of stock for capital raising purposes and any transaction effected primarily for purposes of changing the Company’s jurisdiction of incorporation) other than a transaction or series of related transactions in which the holders of the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such transaction or series of related transactions retain, immediately after such transaction or series of transactions, as a result of shares in the Company held by such holders prior to such transaction or series of transactions, at least a majority of the total voting power represented by the outstanding voting securities of the Company or such other surviving or resulting entity (or if the Company or such other surviving or resulting entity is a wholly-owned subsidiary immediately following such acquisition, its parent), or (ii) a sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole by means of any transaction or series of related transactions, except where such sale, lease or other disposition is to a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company; or

 

 

 

 

 5 
 

 

(c)                Immediately prior to the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act covering the offering and sale of the Company’s common stock.

 

9.                  No Rights as a Stockholder. Nothing contained herein shall entitle the Holder to any rights as a stockholder of the Company or to be deemed the holder of any securities that may at any time be issuable on the exercise of the rights hereunder for any purpose nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder, as such, any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock, change of par value or change of stock to no par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive dividends or subscription rights or any other rights of a stockholder of the Company until the rights under the Warrant shall have been exercised and the Shares purchasable upon exercise of the rights hereunder shall have become deliverable as provided herein.

 

10.                Market Stand-off. The Holder of this Warrant hereby agrees that such Holder shall not sell or otherwise transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, of any common stock (or other securities) of the Company held by the Holder during the one hundred eighty (180) day period following the effective date of a Registration Statement filed under the Securities Act (or such other period as may be requested by the Company or an underwriter to accommodate regulatory restrictions on (i) the publication or other distribution of research reports and (ii) analyst recommendations and opinions, including, but not limited to, the restrictions contained in NYSE Rule 472(f)(4), or any successor provisions or amendments thereto). The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions and may notate each such certificate, instrument or book entry with a legend as substantially set forth in Section 5(c) with respect to the shares of common stock (or other securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of such one hundred eighty (180) day (or other) period. The Holder agrees to execute a market stand-off agreement with the underwriters in the offering in customary form consistent with the provisions of this section.

 

11.                Representations and Warranties of the Holder. By acceptance of this Warrant, the Holder represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

 

(a)                No Registration. The Holder understands that the Securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act, the availability of which depends upon the accuracy of the Holder’s representations as expressed herein or otherwise made pursuant hereto.

 

(b)               Illiquidity and Continued Economic Risk. The Holder acknowledges and agrees that there is no ready public market for the Securities and that there is no guarantee that a market for their resale will ever exist. The undersigned must bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely and the Company has no obligation to list the Securities on any market or take any steps (including registration under the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) with respect to facilitating trading or resale of the Securities. The undersigned acknowledges that it is able to bear the economic risk of losing the undersigned’s entire investment in the Securities. The Holder also understands that an investment in the Company involves significant risks and has taken full cognizance of and understands all of the risk factors relating to the purchase of Securities.

 

 

 

 

 6 
 

 

(c)                Accredited Investor Status or Investment Limits. The undersigned represents that either:

 

(i) the Holder is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act; or

 

(ii) The purchase price, together with any other amounts previously used to purchase Securities in this offering, does not exceed 10% of the greater of the Holder’s annual income or net worth (or in the case where it is a non-natural person, their revenue or net assets for such it's most recently completed fiscal year end).

 

(d)               Company Information. The Holder understands that the Company is subject to all the risks that apply to early-stage companies, whether or not those risks are explicitly set out in the Offering Circular. Holder has had such opportunity as it deems necessary (which opportunity may have presented through online chat or commentary functions) to discuss the Company’s business, management and financial affairs with managers, officers and management of the Company and has had the opportunity to review the Company’s operations and facilities. The Holder has also had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company and its management regarding the terms and conditions of this investment. The Holder acknowledges that except as set forth herein, no representations or warranties have been made to Holder, or to Holder’s advisors or representative, by the Company or others with respect to the business or prospects of the Company or its financial condition.

 

(e)                Domicile. The Holder maintains Holder’s domicile (and is not a transient or temporary resident) at the address shown on the signature page hereto.

 

(f)                No Brokerage Fees. There are no claims for brokerage commission, finders’ fees or similar compensation in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Warrant or the subscription agreement or related documents based on any arrangement or agreement binding upon the Holder.

 

12.              Miscellaneous.

 

(a)                Amendments. Except as set forth in the Warrant Agreement, neither this Warrant nor any term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated other than by a written instrument referencing this Warrant and signed by the Company and countersigned by the Warrant Agent.

 

(b)               Waivers. No waiver of any single breach or default shall be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring.

 7 
 

 

(ii)            if to the Company, to the attention of the President or Chief Financial Officer of the Company at the Company’s address as shown on the signature page hereto, or at such other current address as the Company shall have furnished to the Warrant Agent and the Holder.

 

Each such notice or other communication shall for all purposes of this Warrant be treated as effective or having been given (i) if delivered by hand, messenger or courier service, when delivered (or if sent via a nationally-recognized overnight courier service, freight prepaid, specifying next-business-day delivery, one business day after deposit with the courier), or (ii) if sent via mail, at the earlier of its receipt or five days after the same has been deposited in a regularly-maintained receptacle for the deposit of the United States mail, addressed and mailed as aforesaid, or (iii) if sent via facsimile, upon confirmation of facsimile transfer or, if sent via electronic mail, upon confirmation of delivery when directed to the relevant electronic mail address, if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, or if not sent during normal business hours of the recipient, then on the recipient’s next business day. In the event of any conflict between the Company’s books and records and this Warrant or any notice delivered hereunder, the Company’s books and records will control absent fraud or error.

The balance of this Warrant shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

 

(h)               Saturdays, Sundays and Holidays. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall be a Saturday, Sunday or U.S. federal holiday, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or U.S. federal holiday.

The Investor understands that the Securities have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act, the availability of which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Investor’s representations as expressed herein or otherwise made pursuant hereto.

The Investor acknowledges and agrees that there is no ready public market for the Securities and that there is no guarantee that a market for their resale will ever exist. The undersigned must bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely and the Company has no obligation to list the Securities on any market or take any steps (including registration under the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) with respect to facilitating trading or resale of the Securities.

(i) it is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act; or

 

(ii) The purchase price, together with any other amounts previously used to purchase Securities in this offering, does not exceed 10% of the greater of the Investor’s annual income or net worth (or in the case where it is a non-natural person, their revenue or net assets for such it's most recently completed fiscal year end).

 

4.                  Company Information. The Investor understands that the Company is subject to all the risks that apply to early-stage companies, whether or not those risks are explicitly set out in the Offering Circular. Investor has had such opportunity as it deems necessary (which opportunity may have presented through online chat or commentary functions) to discuss the Company’s business, management and financial affairs with managers, officers and management of the Company and has had the opportunity to review the Company’s operations and facilities. The Investor has also had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company and its management regarding the terms and conditions of this investment. The Investor acknowledges that except as set forth herein, no representations or warranties have been made to Investor, or to Investor’s advisors or representative, by the Company or others with respect to the business or prospects of the Company or its financial condition.

 

 

 

 

 A-1-1 
 

 

5.                  Domicile. The Investor maintains Investor’s domicile (and is not a transient or temporary resident) at the address shown on the signature page hereto.

 

6.                  No Brokerage Fees. There are no claims for brokerage commission, finders’ fees or similar compensation in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Warrant or related documents based on any arrangement or agreement binding upon the Investor.

 

7.                  Market Stand-off. The Investor agrees that the Investor shall not sell or otherwise transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, of any common stock (or other securities) of the Company held by the Investor (other than those included in the registration) during the one hundred eighty (180) day period following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act (or such other period as may be requested by the Company or an underwriter to accommodate regulatory restrictions on (i) the publication or other distribution of research reports and (ii) analyst recommendations and opinions, including, but not limited to, the restrictions contained in NYSE Rule 472(f)(4), or any successor provisions or amendments thereto). The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions and may notate each such certificate, instrument or book entry with a legend with respect to the shares of common stock (or other securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of such one hundred eighty (180) day (or other) period. The Investor agrees to execute a market stand-off agreement with the relevant underwriters in customary form consistent with the provisions of this section.

EX1A-6 MAT CTRCT 5 cloud_ex0302.htm WARRANT AGREEMENT

Exhibit 3.2

 

WARRANT AGREEMENT

 

This Warrant Agreement made as of [___________], 2020 (this “Agreement”), is between Cloudastructure, Inc., a Delaware corporation, with offices at 55 E 3rd Ave., San Mateo California 94401 (the “Company”), and VStock Transfer, LLC, with offices at 18 Lafayette Place, Woodmere, New York (the “Warrant Agent”).

 

WHEREAS, the Company has determined to issue and deliver up to [_________] warrants (the “Warrants”) to investors, each Warrant evidencing the right of the holder thereof to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $[___] per share (the “Common Stock”), for $[___], subject to adjustment as described herein;

 

WHEREAS, the Company desires the Warrant Agent to act on behalf of the Company, and the Warrant Agent is willing to so act, in connection with the issuance, registration, transfer, exchange, redemption and exercise of the Warrants;

 

WHEREAS, the Company desires to provide for the form and provisions of the Warrants, the terms upon which they shall be issued and exercised, and the respective rights, limitation of rights and immunities of the Company, the Warrant Agent and the holders of the Warrants; and

 

WHEREAS, all acts and things have been done and performed which are necessary to make the Warrants, when executed on behalf of the Company and countersigned by or on behalf of the Warrant Agent, as provided herein, the legally valid and binding obligations of the Company, and to authorize the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.                   Appointment of Warrant Agent. The Company hereby appoints the Warrant Agent to act as agent for the Company for the Warrants, and the Warrant Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the same in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

 

2.                   Warrants.

 

2.1                Form of Warrant. Each Warrant shall be (a) issued in registered form only, (b) in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, the provisions of which are incorporated herein, (c) signed by, or bear the facsimile signature of, the Chairman of the Board or, the Chief Executive Officer or the President, and the Treasurer, Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Company, and (d) signed by the Warrant Agent. In the event the person whose facsimile signature has been placed upon any Warrant shall have ceased to serve in the capacity in which such person signed the Warrant before such Warrant is issued, it may be issued with the same effect as if he or she had not ceased to be such at the date of issuance.

 

2.2                Effect of Countersignature. Unless and until countersigned by the Warrant Agent pursuant to this Agreement, a Warrant shall be invalid and of no effect and may not be exercised by the holder thereof. Warrant certificates shall be dated the date of countersignature by the Warrant Agent.

 

 

 

 

 1 
 

 

2.3                Registration.

 

2.3.1           Warrant Register. The Warrant Agent shall maintain books (“Warrant Register”), for the registration of the original issuance and transfers of the Warrants. Upon the initial issuance of the Warrants, the Warrant Agent shall issue and register the Warrants in the names of the respective holders thereof in such denominations and otherwise in accordance with instructions delivered to the Warrant Agent by the Company.

 

2.3.2           Registered Holder. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Warrant, the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the person in whose name such Warrant shall be registered upon the Warrant Register (“Registered Holder”), as the absolute owner of such Warrant and of each Warrant represented thereby (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing on the warrant certificate made by anyone other than the Company or the Warrant Agent), for the purpose of any exercise thereof, and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

 

3.                   Terms and Exercise of Warrants.

 

3.1                Warrant Price. Each Warrant shall, when countersigned by the Warrant Agent, entitle the Registered Holder thereof, subject to the provisions of such Warrant and of this Agreement, to purchase from the Company the number of shares of Common Stock and at the price, subject to the adjustments provided in Section 4 hereof. The term “Warrant Price” as used in this Agreement refers to the price per share at which Common Stock may be purchased at the time a Warrant is exercised.

 

3.2                Duration of Warrants. A Warrant may be exercised only during the period (“Exercise Period”) commencing on the date of issuance. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Expiration Time” shall have the meaning set forth in the Warrant. Each Warrant not exercised on or before the Expiration Date shall become void, and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under this Agreement shall cease at the close of business on the Expiration Date.

 

3.3                Exercise of Warrants.

 

3.3.1           Payment. Subject to the provisions of the Warrant and this Agreement, a Warrant, when countersigned by the Warrant Agent, may be exercised by the Registered Holder thereof by surrendering it, at the office of the Warrant Agent, or at the office of its successor as Warrant Agent, with the subscription form, as set forth in the Warrant, duly executed, and by paying in full, in lawful money of the United States, by ACH, wire transfer, debit card, credit card or check and payable to the order of the Company (or as otherwise agreed to by the Company), the Warrant Price for each full share of Common Stock as to which the Warrant is exercised and any and all applicable taxes due in connection with the exercise of the Warrant, the exchange of the Warrant for the Common Stock, and the issuance of the Common Stock. In no event shall the Registered Holder of any Warrant be entitled to “net cash settle” the Warrant.

 

3.3.2           Issuance of Certificates. As soon as practicable after the exercise of any Warrant and the clearance of the funds in payment of the Warrant Price, the Company shall issue to the Registered Holder of such Warrant a certificate or certificates representing the number of full shares of Common Stock to which he, she or it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him, her or it, and, if such Warrant shall not have been exercised or surrendered in full, a new countersigned Warrant for the number of shares as to which such Warrant shall not have been exercised or surrendered. Warrants may not be exercised by, or securities issued to, any Registered Holder in any state in which such exercise or issuance would be unlawful. In the event an offering statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to the Common Stock underlying the Warrants is not qualified or an offering circular is not available, or because such exercise would be unlawful with respect to a Registered Holder in any state, the Registered Holder shall not be entitled to exercise such Warrants and such Warrants may have no value and expire worthless.

 

 

 

 

 2 
 

 

3.3.3           Valid Issuance. All shares of Common Stock issued upon the proper exercise or surrender of a Warrant in conformity with this Agreement shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

 

3.3.4           Date of Issuance. Each person or entity in whose name any such certificate for shares of Common Stock is issued shall, for all purposes, be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares on the date on which the Warrant was surrendered and payment of the Warrant Price was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate, except that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open.

 

4.                   Adjustments.

 

4.1                Notices of Changes in Warrant. Upon every adjustment of the Warrant Price or the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant, the Company shall give written notice thereof to the Warrant Agent, which notice shall state the Warrant Price resulting from such adjustment and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of shares purchasable at such price upon the exercise of a Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Upon the occurrence of any such adjustment the Company shall give written notice to each Warrant holder, at the last address set forth for such holder in the Warrant Register, of the record date or the effective date of the event. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such event.

 

4.2                No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not issue fractional shares upon exercise of Warrants. If, by reason of any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4, the holder of any Warrant would be entitled, upon the exercise of such Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company shall, upon such exercise, round up to the nearest whole number the number of the shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Warrant holder.

 

4.3                Form of Warrant. The form of Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment pursuant to this Section 4, and Warrants issued after such adjustment may state the same Warrant Price and the same number of shares as is stated in the Warrants initially issued pursuant to this Agreement. However, the Company may, at any time, in its sole discretion, make any change in the form of Warrant that the Company may deem appropriate and that does not affect the substance thereof, and any Warrant thereafter issued or countersigned, whether in exchange or substitution for an outstanding Warrant or otherwise, may be in the form as so changed.

 

5.                   Transfer and Exchange of Warrants.

 

5.1                Registration of Transfer. The Warrant Agent shall register the transfer, from time to time, of any outstanding Warrant into the Warrant Register, upon surrender of such Warrant for transfer, properly endorsed with signatures properly guaranteed and accompanied by appropriate instructions for transfer. Upon any such transfer, a new Warrant representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants shall be issued and the old Warrant shall be cancelled by the Warrant Agent. The Warrants so cancelled shall be delivered by the Warrant Agent to the Company from time to time upon the Company’s request.

 

 

 

 

 3 
 

 

5.2                Procedure for Surrender of Warrants. Warrants may be surrendered to the Warrant Agent, together with a written request for exchange or transfer, and, thereupon, the Warrant Agent shall issue in exchange therefor one or more new Warrants as requested by the Registered Holder of the Warrants so surrendered, representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants; provided, however, that, in the event a Warrant surrendered for transfer bears a restrictive legend, the Warrant Agent shall not cancel such Warrant and shall issue new Warrants in exchange therefor until the Warrant Agent has received an opinion of counsel for the Company stating that such transfer may be made and indicating whether the new Warrants must also bear a restrictive legend.

 

5.3                Fractional Warrants. The Warrant Agent shall not be required to effect any registration of transfer or exchange which will result in the issuance of a warrant certificate for a fraction of a warrant.

 

5.4                Warrant Execution and Countersignature. The Warrant Agent is hereby authorized to countersign and to deliver, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Warrants required to be issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5, and the Company, whenever required by the Warrant Agent, will supply the Warrant Agent with Warrants duly executed on behalf of the Company for such purpose.

 

6.                   Other Provisions Relating to Rights of Holders of Warrants.

 

6.1                No Rights as Stockholder. A Warrant does not entitle the Registered Holder thereof to any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends, or other distributions, exercise any preemptive rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of the meetings of stockholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter.

 

6.2                Lost, Stolen Mutilated or Destroyed Warrants. If any Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed, the Company and the Warrant Agent may, on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as they may in their discretion impose (which terms shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant, include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination, tenor and date as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed. Any such new Warrant shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

 

7.                   Concerning the Warrant Agent and Other Matters.

 

7.1                Payment of Taxes. The Company will, from time to time, promptly pay all taxes and charges that may be imposed upon the Company or the Warrant Agent in respect of the issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of Warrants, but the Company shall not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes in respect of the Warrants or such shares.

 

 

 

 

 4 
 

 

7.2                Resignation, Consolidation, or Merger of Warrant Agent.

 

7.2.1           Appointment of Successor Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent, or any successor to it hereafter appointed, may resign its duties and be discharged from all further duties and liabilities hereunder after giving sixty (60) days’ notice in writing to the Company. If the office of the Warrant Agent becomes vacant by resignation or incapacity to act or otherwise, the Company shall appoint, in writing, a successor Warrant Agent in place of the Warrant Agent. If the Company shall fail to make such appointment within a period of 30 days after it has been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the Warrant Agent or by the holder of the Warrant (who shall, with such notice, submit his, her or its Warrant for inspection by the Company), then the holder of any Warrant may apply to the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of New York for the appointment of a successor Warrant Agent. Any successor Warrant Agent, whether appointed by the Company or by such court, shall be a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of New York, in good standing and have its principal office in the Borough of Manhattan, City and State of New York, and be authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities. After appointment, any successor Warrant Agent shall be vested with all the authority, powers, rights, immunities, duties and obligations of its predecessor Warrant Agent with like effect as if originally named as Warrant Agent hereunder, without any further act or deed; but, if for any reason it becomes necessary or appropriate, the predecessor Warrant Agent shall execute and deliver, at the expense of the Company, an instrument transferring to such successor Warrant Agent all the authority, powers, and rights of such predecessor Warrant Agent hereunder; and, upon request of any successor Warrant Agent, the Company shall make, execute, acknowledge, and deliver any and all instruments in writing for more fully and effectually vesting in and confirming to such successor Warrant Agent all such authority, powers, rights, immunities, duties and obligations.

 

7.2.2           Notice of Successor Warrant Agent. In the event a successor Warrant Agent shall be appointed, the Company shall give notice thereof to the predecessor Warrant Agent and the transfer agent for the Common Stock not later than the effective date of any such appointment.

 

7.2.3           Merger or Consolidation of Warrant Agent. Any corporation into which the Warrant Agent may be merged or with which it may be consolidated or any corporation resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Warrant Agent shall be a party shall be the successor Warrant Agent under this Agreement without any further act on the part of the Company or the Warrant Agent.

 

7.3                Fees and Expenses of Warrant Agent.

 

7.3.1           Remuneration. The Company agrees to pay the Warrant Agent reasonable remuneration for its services as Warrant Agent hereunder as set forth on Exhibit B hereto and will reimburse the Warrant Agent upon demand for all expenditures that the Warrant Agent may reasonably incur in the execution of its duties hereunder.

 

7.3.2           Further Assurances. The Company agrees to perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to be performed, executed, acknowledged and delivered, all such further and other acts, instruments and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Warrant Agent for the carrying out or performing of the provisions of this Agreement.

Whenever, in the performance of its duties under this Agreement, the Warrant Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that any fact or matter be proved or established by the Company prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, such fact or matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a statement signed by the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or Chairman of the Board of the Company and delivered to the Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent may rely upon such statement for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.

 

7.4.2           Indemnity. The Warrant Agent shall be liable hereunder only for its own negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. The Company agrees to indemnify the Warrant Agent and save it harmless against any and all liabilities, including judgments, costs and reasonable counsel fees, for anything done or omitted by the Warrant Agent in the execution of this Agreement, except as a result of the Warrant Agent’s negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith.

 

7.4.3           Exclusions. The Warrant Agent shall have no responsibility with respect to the validity of this Agreement or with respect to the validity or execution of any Warrant (except its countersignature thereof); nor shall it be responsible for any breach by the Company of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any Warrant; nor shall it be responsible to make any adjustments required under the provisions of Section 4 hereof or responsible for the manner, method or amount of any such adjustment or the ascertaining of the existence of facts that would require any such adjustment; nor shall it, by any act hereunder, be deemed to make any representation or warranty as to the authorization or reservation of any shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Agreement or any Warrant or as to whether any shares of Common Stock will when issued be valid and fully paid and nonassessable.

 

7.5                Acceptance of Agency. The Warrant Agent hereby accepts the agency established by this Agreement and agrees to perform the same upon the terms and conditions herein set forth and, among other things, shall account promptly to the Company with respect to Warrants exercised and concurrently account for, and pay to the Company, all moneys received by the Warrant Agent for the purchase of shares of the Company’s Common Stock through the exercise of Warrants.

EX1A-6 MAT CTRCT 6 cloud_ex0601.htm BROKER-DEALER AGREEMENT

Exhibit 6.1

 

 

Broker-Dealer Agreement

 

This amended agreement (together with exhibits and schedules, the “Agreement”) is entered into by and between Cloudastructure, Inc. (“Client”), a Delaware Corporation, and Dalmore Group, LLC., a New York Limited Liability Company (“Dalmore”). Client and Dalmore agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, effective as of April 1, 2020 (the “Effective Date”):

 

Whereas, Dalmore is a registered broker-dealer providing services in the equity and debt securities market, including offerings conducted via SEC approved exemptions such as Reg D 506(b), 506(c), Regulation A+, Reg CF and others;

 

Whereas, Client is offering securities directly to the public in an offering exempt from registration under Regulation A (the “Offering”); and

 

Whereas, Client recognizes the benefit of having Dalmore as a service provider for investors who participate in the Offering (“Investors”).

 

Now, Therefore, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

 

1.             Appointment, Term, and Termination

 

a.            Client hereby engages and retains Dalmore to provide operations and compliance services at Client’s discretion.

 

b.            The Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will remain in effect for a period of twelve (12) months and will renew automatically for successive renewal terms of twelve (12) months each unless any party provides notice to the other party of non-renewal at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the current term. If Client defaults in performing the obligations under this Agreement, the Agreement may be terminated (i) upon sixty (60) days written notice if Client fails to perform or observe any material term, covenant or condition to be performed or observed by it under this Agreement and such failure continues to be unremedied, (ii) upon written notice, if any material representation or warranty made by either Provider or Client proves to be incorrect at any time in any material respect, (iii) in order to comply with a Legal Requirement, if compliance cannot be timely achieved using commercially reasonable efforts, after providing as much notice as practicable, or (iv) upon thirty (30) days’ written notice if Client or Dalmore commences a voluntary proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief, or is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or has entered against it a final and unappeable order for relief, under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or either party executes and delivers a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors. The description in this section of specific remedies will not exclude the availability of any other remedies. Any delay or failure by Client to exercise any right, power, remedy or privilege will not be construed to be a waiver of such right, power, remedy or privilege or to limit the exercise of such right, power, remedy or privilege. No single, partial or other exercise of any such right, power, remedy or privilege will preclude the further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. All terms of the Agreement, which should reasonably survive termination, shall so survive, including, without limitation, limitations of liability and indemnities, and the obligation to pay Fees relating to Services provided prior to termination.

 

 

 

 1 
 

 

2.             Services. Dalmore will perform the services listed on Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof, in connection with the Offering (the “Services”). Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties.

 

3.             Compensation. As compensation for the Services, Client shall pay to Dalmore a fee equal to one hundred (100) basis points (1%) on the aggregate amount raised by the Client from Investors. This will only start after FINRA Corporate Finance issues a No Objection Letter for the offering.

 

There will also be a one-time advance set up fee of $27,500. $10,000 of the fee is due and payable upon execution of this agreement and the remaining $17,500 will be due within 30 days after the offering is qualified by the SEC and the receipt of the No Objection Letter from FINRA. The advance fee will cover reasonable out-of-pocket accountable expenses actually anticipated to be incurred by the firm such as preparing the FINRA filing, working with the Client’s SEC counsel in providing information to the extent necessary, coordination with any third party vendors involved in the offering and any other services necessary and required prior to the approval of the offering. The firm will refund any fee related to the advance to the extent it was not used, incurred or provided to the Client.

 

4.             Regulatory Compliance

 

a.            Client and all its third party providers shall at all times (i) comply with direct requests of Dalmore; (ii) maintain all required registrations and licenses, including foreign qualification, if necessary; and (iii) pay all related fees and expenses (including the FINRA Corporate Filing Fee), in each case that are necessary or appropriate to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement. Client shall comply with and adhere to all Dalmore policies and procedures.

 

FINRA Corporate Filing Fee for this $50,000,000, best efforts offering will be $8,000, and will be a pass- through fee payable to Dalmore, from the Client, who will then forward it to FINRA as payment for the filing. This payment will be due and payable from the proceeds on the money raise after the offering is qualified and a No Objection Letter is issued as an additional fee.

 

b.           Client and Dalmore will have the shared responsibility for the review of all documentation related to the Transaction but the ultimate discretion about accepting a client will be the sole decision of the Client. Each Investor will be considered to be that of the Client’s and NOT Dalmore.

 

c.            Client and Dalmore will each be responsible for supervising the activities and training of their respective sales employees, as well as all of their other respective employees in the performance of functions specifically allocated to them pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

 

d.            Client and Dalmore agree to promptly notify the other concerning any material communications from or with any Governmental Authority or Self Regulatory Organization with respect to this Agreement or the performance of its obligations, unless such notification is expressly prohibited by the applicable Governmental Authority.

 

5.             Role of Dalmore. Client acknowledges and agrees that Client will rely on Client’s own judgment in using Dalmore’ Services. Dalmore (i) makes no representations with respect to the quality of any investment opportunity or of any issuer; (ii) does not guarantee the performance to and of any Investor; (iii) will make commercially reasonable efforts to perform the Services in accordance with its specifications; (iv) does not guarantee the performance of any party or facility which provides connectivity to Dalmore; and (v) is not an investment adviser, does not provide investment advice and does not recommend securities transactions and any display of data or other information about an investment opportunity, does not constitute a recommendation as to the appropriateness, suitability, legality, validity or profitability of any transaction. Nothing in this Agreement should be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, or employer-employee relationship of any kind.

9.           Investment Representations; Restriction on Transfer.

 

(a)           In connection with the purchase of the Shares, the Purchaser represents to the Company the following:

The Purchaser is purchasing these securities for investment for the Purchaser’s own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

 

(ii)           The Purchaser understands that the securities have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of his investment intent as expressed herein.

(iv)             The Purchaser is aware of the adoption of Rule 144 by the Commission, promulgated under the Securities Act, which permits limited public resale of securities acquired in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.

 

(v)               The Purchaser further acknowledges that in the event all of the requirements of Rule 144 are not met, compliance with Regulation A or some other registration exemption will be required; and that although Rule 144 is not exclusive, the staff of the Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and other than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales and that such persons and the brokers who participate in the transactions do so at their own risk.

 

(b)          The Purchaser agrees, in connection with the Company’s initial public offering of the Company’s securities, (i) not to sell, make short sales of, loan, grant any options for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock of the Company held by the Purchaser (other than those shares included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or the underwriters managing such initial underwritten public offering for one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of such registration, (ii) to execute any agreement reflecting (i) above as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the public offering, and (iii) that the Company may impose stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent in order to enforce the foregoing covenants.

 

10.          Company’s Right of First Refusal. Before all or any portion of the Shares held by the Purchaser or any transferee (either being referred to herein as the “Stockholder”) may be sold or otherwise transferred (including transfer by gift or operation of law), the Company or its assignee(s) shall have a right of first refusal to purchase such Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section (the “Right of First Refusal”).

 

(a)          The Stockholder shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the “Notice”) stating: (i) the Stockholder’s bona fide intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (ii) the name of each proposed purchaser or other transferee (the “Proposed Transferee”); (iii) the number of Shares to be transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (iv) the bona fide cash price or other consideration for which the Stockholder proposes to transfer the Shares (the “Offered Price”), and the Stockholder shall offer the Shares at the Offered Price to the Company or its assignee(s).

 

(b)          At any time within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s) may, by giving written notice to the Stockholder, elect to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Shares proposed to be transferred to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees, at the purchase price determined in accordance with subsection (c) below.

 

 

 

 

 5 
 

 

(c)           The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for the Shares purchased by the Company or its assignee(s) under this Section shall be the Offered Price. If the Offered Price includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration shall be determined by the Board in good faith, which determination shall be final and binding.

 

(d)           Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at the option of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash, by check, by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Purchaser to the Company (or, in the case of repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee), or by any combination thereof within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice or in the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice.

 

(e)           If all of the Shares proposed in the Notice to be transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section, then the Stockholder may sell or otherwise transfer such Shares to that Proposed Transferee at the Offered Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other transfer is consummated within 120 days after the date of the Notice and provided further that any such sale or other transfer is effected in accordance with any applicable securities laws and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that the provisions of this Section shall continue to apply to the Shares in the hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the Shares described in the Notice are not transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, a new Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees shall again be offered the Right of First Refusal before any Shares held by the Stockholder may be sold or otherwise transferred.

 

(f)           Anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10 notwithstanding, the following transfers shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section 10: (i) transfers of Shares as bona fide gifts, and (ii) transfers of Shares during the Purchaser’s lifetime or on the Purchaser’s death by will or intestacy to the Purchaser’s immediate family or a trust for the benefit of the Purchaser’s Immediate Family. “Immediate Family” as used herein shall mean spouse, lineal descendant or antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister. In case of any transfer under this subsection 10 (f), the transferee or other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares so transferred subject to the provisions of this Section, and there shall be no further transfer of such Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Section.

 

(g)           The Right of First Refusal shall terminate upon the closing of the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act.

 

11.           Adjustment for Stock Split. All references to the number of Shares and the purchase price of the Shares in this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or other change in the Shares which may be made by the Company after the date of this Agreement.

12.           Tax Consequences. The Purchaser has reviewed with the Purchaser’s own tax advisors the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchaser is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. The Purchaser understands that the Purchaser (and not the Company) shall be responsible for the Purchaser’s own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchaser understands that Section 83 of the Code, taxes as ordinary income both (i) the difference between the fair market value of the Shares when the Company granted the Purchaser the right to purchase the Shares and the fair market value of the Shares on the date of this Agreement and (ii) the difference between the amount paid for the Shares and the fair market value of the Shares as of the date any restrictions on the Shares lapse. In this context, “restriction” includes the right of the Company to buy back the Shares pursuant to its repurchase option. In the event the Company has registered under the Exchange Act, “restriction” with respect to officers, directors and 10% stockholders also means the period after the purchase of the Shares during which such officers, directors and 10% stockholders could be subject to suit under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. The Purchaser understands that the Purchaser may elect to be taxed at the time the Shares are purchased rather than when and as the Company’s repurchase option or 16(b) period expires by filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Code with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days from the date of purchase.

 

THE PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS THE PURCHASER’S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY AND NOT THE COMPANY’S TO FILE TIMELY THE ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b), EVEN IF THE PURCHASER REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES TO MAKE THIS FILING ON THE PURCHASER’S BEHALF.

 

13.           General Provisions.

 

(a)           This Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of California. This Agreement represents the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the purchase of Common Stock by the Purchaser, may only be modified or amended in writing signed by both parties and satisfies all of the Company’s obligations to the Purchaser with regard to the issuance or sale of securities.

 

(b)           The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the sale of the Shares.

 

(c)           Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto.

 

(d)           Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be given by either the Company or the Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when delivered personally, sent by overnight courier service, or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mail, First Class with postage prepaid, and addressed to the parties at the addresses of the parties set forth at the end of this Agreement or such other address as a party may request by notifying the other in writing.

 

Any notice to the Escrow Holder shall be sent to the Company’s address with a copy to the other party not sending the notice.

 

 

 

 

 7 
 

 

(e)           The rights and benefits of the Company under this Agreement shall be transferable to any one or more persons or entities, and all covenants and agreements hereunder shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by the Company’s successors and assigns. The rights and obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement may only be assigned with the prior written consent of the Company.

 

(f)            Either party’s failure to enforce any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be construed as a waiver of any such provision or provisions, nor prevent that party thereafter from enforcing each and every other provision of this Agreement. The rights granted both parties herein are cumulative and shall not constitute a waiver of either party’s right to assert all other legal remedies available to it under the circumstances.

 

(g)           The Purchaser agrees upon request to execute any further documents or instruments necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes or intent of this Agreement.

 

(h)           THE PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF SHARES PURSUANT TO SECTION 5 HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING SERVICE AS AN EMPLOYEE, CONSULTANT, OR DIRECTOR AT THE WILL OF THE COMPANY (NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED OR PURCHASING SHARES HEREUNDER). THE PURCHASER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS AN EMPLOYEE, CONSULTANT, OR DIRECTOR FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND SHALL NOT INTERFERE WITH PURCHASER’S RIGHT OR THE COMPANY’S RIGHT (OR THE RIGHT OF THE STOCKHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY) TO TERMINATE THE PURCHASER’S EMPLOYMENT, CONSULTING, OR DIRECTORSHIP RELATIONSHIP AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE.

 

(i)           SALE OF THE SECURITIES WHICH ARE THE SUBJECT OF THIS AGREEMENT HAS NOT BEEN QUALIFIED WITH THE COMMISSIONER OF CORPORATIONS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THE ISSUANCE OF SUCH SECURITIES OR THE PAYMENT OR RECEIPT OF ANY PART OF THE CONSIDERATION THEREFOR PRIOR TO SUCH QUALIFICATION IS UNLAWFUL, UNLESS THE SALE OF SECURITIES IS EXEMPT FROM THE QUALIFICATION BY SECTION 25100, 25102, OR 25105 OF THE CALIFORNIA CORPORATIONS CODE. THE RIGHTS OF ALL PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT ARE EXPRESSLY CONDITIONED UPON SUCH QUALIFICATION BEING OBTAINED, UNLESS THE SALE IS SO EXEMPT.

 

(j)           This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

SUBORDINATED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

$5,000.00

 

November 20, 2007

 

San Francisco, California

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Connexed Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) promises to pay to Johnson, Craig (“Investor”), or its registered assigns, in lawful money of the United States of America the principal sum of $5,000.00, or such lesser amount as shall equal the outstanding principal amount hereof, together with interest from the date of this Note on the unpaid principal balance at a rate equal to 6.00% per annum, computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 365 days. All unpaid principal, together with any then unpaid and accrued interest and other amounts payable hereunder, shall be due and payable (i) upon delivery, at any time after November [Maturity Date], by registered or certified mail or by overnight courier, postage prepaid, to Company at its principal corporate office of written notice executed by holders of more than 50% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes (as defined below) issued pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement (as defined below) (the “Majority Holders”) demanding that such amounts immediately become due and payable, or (ii) when, upon or after the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in Section 3 below), the Company has received written notice executed by the Majority Holders demanding that such amounts immediately become due and payable. This Note is one of the “Notes” issued pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement dated November 1, 2003 (as amended, modified or supplemented, the “Note Purchase Agreement”) between the Company and the Investors (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement). Investor is one of the “Investors,” which term shall collectively include all registered holders of the Notes.

 

Any capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Note Purchase Agreement.

 

The following is a statement of the rights of Investor and the conditions to which this Note is subject, and to which Investor, by the acceptance of this Note, agrees:

 

1.             Interest. Accrued interest on this Note shall be due and payable, or be converted into shares of the Company’s securities, as the case may be, only at such time as the aggregate outstanding principal amount of this Note shall be declared due and payable, or be converted into shares of the Company’s securities, in accordance with the terms of this Note.

 

2.             Prepayment. Upon ten days prior written notice to Investor, the Company may prepay the outstanding principal and accrued interest under this Note in whole or in part; provided that: (i) any prepayment of this Note may be made only in connection with the prepayment of all Notes on a pro rat basis, based on the respective aggregate outstanding principal amounts of each such Note, and (ii) any such prepayment will be applied first to interest accrued on this Note and then, if the amount of prepayment exceeds the amount of all such accrued interest, to the payment of the principal of this Note.

 

 

 

 1 

 

 

3.             Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Note and the other Transaction Documents (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement):

 

(a)           Voluntary Bankruptcy or Insolvency Proceedings. The Company shall (i) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or custodian of itself or of all or a substantial part of its property, (ii) commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to itself or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or consent to any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession of its property by any official in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against it, or (iii) take any action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing; or

 

(b)           Involuntary Bankruptcy or Insolvency Proceedings. Proceedings for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or custodian of the Company or of all or a substantial part of the property thereof, or an involuntary case or other proceedings seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to the Company or the debts thereof under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect shall be commenced and an order for relief entered or such proceeding shall not be dismissed or discharged within 30 days of commencement.

 

4.              Rights of Investor upon Default. Upon the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such Event of Default, the Majority Holders may, by written notice to the Company, demand that all outstanding Obligations (as defined below) payable by the Company under the Notes become immediately due and payable. In addition to the foregoing remedies, upon the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default and subject to the consent of the Majority Holders, Investor may exercise any other right power or remedy granted to it by the Transaction Documents (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement) or otherwise permitted to it by law, either by suit in equity or by action at law, or both. “Obligations” shall mean and include all loans, advances, debts, liabilities and obligations owed by the Company to Investor arising under or pursuant to the terms of this Note, including all interest, fees, charges, expenses and attorneys’ fees.

 

5.Conversion.

 

(a)            Automatic (Mandatory) Conversion. On the earliest to occur of the events described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) below, the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest under this Note will automatically convert into shares of the Company’s equity securities pursuant to the terms of such clause and in accordance with the terms of this Note:

 

(i)             Upon delivery, at any time after [Maturity Date], by registered or certified mail or by overnight courier, postage prepaid, to Company at its principal corporate office of written notice executed by Majority Holders demanding that the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest on each Note convert into shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”), then the outstanding principal amount of and all accrued but unpaid interest under this Note shall automatically convert into that number of shares of the Common Stock as is determined by dividing such principal amount and accrued interest by the then fair market value per share of Common Stock (adjusted to reflect subsequent stock dividends, stock splits, combinations or recapitalizations), as determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”). Upon such conversion of this Note, Investor hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Company a common stock purchase agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company containing customary representations and warranties and transfer restrictions (including a 180-day lock-up agreement in connection with an initial public offering).

 

(ii)            In the event that the Company, at any time during which a portion of the principal balance remains outstanding, consummates an equity financing or a series of related transactions pursuant to which it either (a) sells shares of a series of preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”) to an institutional venture capital investor or (b) sells shares of the Preferred Stock to purchasers, none of which are institutional venture capital investors, with an aggregate sales price of not less than $1,000,000, including any and all notes which are converted into preferred stock (including this Note and the other Notes issued under the Note Purchase Agreement) (each, a “Qualified Equity Financing”), then the outstanding principal amount of and all accrued but unpaid interest under this Note shall automatically convert into shares of the Preferred Stock at the same price and on the same terms as the other investors that purchase the Preferred Stock in the Qualified Equity Financing. Upon such conversion of this Note, Investor hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Company all transaction documents related to the Qualified Equity Financing, including a purchase agreement and other ancillary agreements, with customary representations and warranties and transfer restrictions (including a 180-day lock-up agreement in connection with an initial public offering), and having the same terms as those agreements entered into by the other purchasers of the Preferred Stock.

 

 

 

 2 

 

 

(iii)           In the event that the Company, at any time during which a portion of the principal balance remains outstanding, consummates a Change of Control (as defined below), then the outstanding principal amount of and all accrued but unpaid interest under this Note shall automatically convert into that number of shares of the Common Stock as is determined by dividing such principal amount and accrued interest by the then fair market value per share of the Common Stock (adjusted to reflect subsequent stock dividends, stock splits, combinations or recapitalizations), as determined in good faith by the Board. Upon such conversion of this Note, Investor hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Company a common stock purchase agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company containing customary representations and warranties and transfer restrictions (including a 180-day lock-up agreement in connection with an initial public offering). For purposes of this Note, a “Change of Control” shall mean (a) a sale, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or (b)  an acquisition of the Company by another entity in which the Company’s stockholders immediately prior to the transaction do not control a majority of the voting power of the surviving entity.

 

(b)           Conversion Procedure.

 

(i)             Delivery of Note; Issuance of Certificates. Pursuant to the terms of this Section 5, this Note will convert into shares of the Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as the case may be. Before Investor shall be entitled to receive certificates representing shares of the Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as the case may be, Investor shall deliver the original of this Note (or a notice to the effect that the original Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed and an agreement acceptable to the Company whereby the holder agrees to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with this Note) to the Company for cancellation; provided, however, that upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 5(a) for such conversion, this Note shall be deemed converted and of no further force and effect, whether or not it is delivered for cancellation as set forth in this sentence. The Company shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to Investor a certificate or certificate for the number of shares to which Investor shall be entitled upon conversion (bearing such legends as are required by applicable state and federal securities laws in the opinion of counsel to the Company). The conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date that the conditions to the conversion events pursuant to Section 5(a)(i), Section 5(a)(ii) or Section 5(a)(iii), as the case may be, shall be satisfied.

 

(ii)            Fractional Shares; Interest; Effect of Conversion. No fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of the Company issuing any fractional shares to Investor upon the conversion of this Note, the Company shall pay to Investor an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the conversion price by the fraction of a share not issued pursuant to the previous sentence. Upon conversion of this Note in full and the payment of any amounts specified in this Section 6(b)(ii), the Company shall be forever released from all its obligations and liabilities under this Note.

 

6.             Subordination. The indebtedness evidenced by this Note is hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all of the Company’s Senior Indebtedness (as defined below). For purposes of this Note, the term “Senior Indebtedness” shall mean, unless expressly subordinated to or made on a parity with the amounts due under this Note, the principal of (and premium, if any), unpaid interest on and amounts reimbursable, fees, expenses, costs of enforcement and other amounts due in connection with, (i) indebtedness of the Company, or with respect to which the Company is a guarantor, to banks, commercial finance lenders, insurance companies, leasing or equipment financing institutions or other lending institutions regularly engaged in the business of lending money (excluding venture capital, investment banking or similar institutions which sometimes engage in lending activities but which are primarily engaged in investments in equity securities), which is for money borrowed, or purchase or leasing of equipment in the case of lease or other equipment financing, whether or not secured, and (ii) any such indebtedness or any debentures, notes or other evidence of indebtedness issued in exchange for such Senior Indebtedness, or any indebtedness arising from the satisfaction of such Senior Indebtedness by a guarantor.

 

(a)            Insolvency Proceedings. If there shall occur any receivership, insolvency, assignment for the benefit of creditors, bankruptcy, reorganization, or arrangements with creditors (whether or not pursuant to bankruptcy or other insolvency laws), sale of all or substantially all of the assets, dissolution, liquidation, or any other marshaling of the assets and liabilities of the Company, (i) no amount shall be paid by the Company in respect of the principal of, interest on or other amounts due with respect to this Note at the time outstanding, unless and until the principal of and interest on the Senior Indebtedness then outstanding shall be paid in full, and (ii) no claim or proof of claim shall be filed with the Company by or on behalf of Investor of this Note which shall assert any right to receive any payments in respect of the principal of and interest on this Note except subject to the payment in full of the principal of and interest on all of the Senior Indebtedness then outstanding.

 

 

 

 3 

 

 

(b)            Default on Senior Indebtedness. If there shall occur an event of default which has been declared in writing with respect to any Senior Indebtedness, as defined therein, or in the instrument under which it is outstanding, permitting the holder to accelerate the maturity thereof and Investor shall have received written notice thereof from the holder of such Senior Indebtedness, then, unless and until such event of default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, or all Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, no payment shall be made in respect of the principal of or interest on this Note, unless within one hundred eighty (180) days after the happening of such event of default, the maturity of such Senior Indebtedness shall not have been accelerated. Not more than one notice may be given to Investor pursuant to the terms of this Section 6(b) during any 360-day period.

 

(c)            Further Assurances. By acceptance of this Note, Investor agrees to execute and deliver customary forms of subordination agreement requested from time to time by holders of Senior Indebtedness, and as a condition to Investor’s rights hereunder, the Company may require that Investor execute such forms of subordination agreement; provided that such forms shall not impose on Investor terms less favorable than those provided herein.

 

(d)           Other Indebtedness. No indebtedness which does not constitute Senior Indebtedness shall be senior in any respect to the indebtedness represented by this Note.

 

(e)            Subrogation. Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, Investor shall be subrogated to the rights of the holder(s) of such Senior Indebtedness (to the extent of the payments or distributions made to the holder(s) of such Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6) to receive payments and distributions of assets of the Company applicable to the Senior Indebtedness. No such payments or distributions applicable to the Senior Indebtedness shall, as between the Company and its creditors, other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness and Investor, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of this Note; and for purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of Senior Indebtedness to which Investor would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 6 shall, as between the Company and its creditors, other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness and Investor, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of the Senior Indebtedness.

 

(f)             No Impairment. Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of Senior Indebtedness under this Section 6 to receive cash, securities or other properties otherwise payable or deliverable to Investor, nothing contained in this Section 6 shall impair, as between the Company and Investor, the obligation of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, to pay to Investor the principal hereof and interest hereon as and when the same become due and payable, or shall prevent Investor, upon default hereunder, from exercising all rights, powers and remedies otherwise provided herein or by applicable law.

 

(g)            Lien Subordination. Any lien of Investor, whether now or hereafter existing in connection with the amounts due under this Note, on any assets or property of the Company or any proceeds or revenues therefrom which Investor may have at any time as security for any amounts due and obligations under this Note shall be subordinate to all liens now or hereafter granted to a holder of Senior Indebtedness by the Company or by law, notwithstanding the date, order or method of attachment or perfection of any such lien or the provisions of any applicable law.

 

(h)            Reliance of Holders of Senior Indebtedness. Investor, by its acceptance hereof, shall be deemed to acknowledge and agree that the foregoing subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement to and a consideration of each holder of Senior Indebtedness, whether such Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the creation of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, and each such holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and holding, or in continuing to hold, such Senior Indebtedness.

 

7.              Successors and Assigns. Subject to the restrictions on transfer described in Sections 9 and 10 below, the rights and obligations of the Company and Investor shall be binding upon and benefit the successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of the parties.

 

 

 

 4 

 

 

8.              Waiver and Amendment. Any provision of this Note may be amended, waived or modified upon the written consent of the Company and the Majority Holders.

 

9.              Transfer of this Note or Securities Issuable on Conversion Hereof. With respect to any offer, sale or other disposition of this Note or securities into which such Note may be converted, Investor will give written notice to the Company prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, together with a written opinion of Investor’s counsel, or other evidence if reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such offer, sale or other distribution may be effected without registration or qualification (under any federal or state law then in effect).

5.Conversion.

 

(a)            Automatic (Mandatory) Conversion. On the earliest to occur of the events described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) below, the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest under this Note will automatically convert into shares of the Company’s equity securities pursuant to the terms of such clause and in accordance with the terms of this Note:

 

(i)             Upon delivery, at any time after [Maturity Date], by registered or certified mail or by overnight courier, postage prepaid, to Company at its principal corporate office of written notice executed by Majority Holders demanding that the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest on each Note convert into shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”), then the outstanding principal amount of and all accrued but unpaid interest under this Note shall automatically convert into that number of shares of the Common Stock as is determined by dividing such principal amount and accrued interest by the then fair market value per share of Common Stock (adjusted to reflect subsequent stock dividends, stock splits, combinations or recapitalizations), as determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”). Upon such conversion of this Note, Investor hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Company a common stock purchase agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company containing customary representations and warranties and transfer restrictions (including a 180-day lock-up agreement in connection with an initial public offering).

The Company shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver to Investor a certificate or certificate for the number of shares to which Investor shall be entitled upon conversion (bearing such legends as are required by applicable state and federal securities laws in the opinion of counsel to the Company). The conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date that the conditions to the conversion events pursuant to Section 5(a)(i), Section 5(a)(ii) or Section 5(a)(iii), as the case may be, shall be satisfied.

 

(ii)            Fractional Shares; Interest; Effect of Conversion. No fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of this Note.

Upon conversion of this Note in full and the payment of any amounts specified in this Section 6(b)(ii), the Company shall be forever released from all its obligations and liabilities under this Note.

(a)            Insolvency Proceedings. If there shall occur any receivership, insolvency, assignment for the benefit of creditors, bankruptcy, reorganization, or arrangements with creditors (whether or not pursuant to bankruptcy or other insolvency laws), sale of all or substantially all of the assets, dissolution, liquidation, or any other marshaling of the assets and liabilities of the Company, (i) no amount shall be paid by the Company in respect of the principal of, interest on or other amounts due with respect to this Note at the time outstanding, unless and until the principal of and interest on the Senior Indebtedness then outstanding shall be paid in full, and (ii) no claim or proof of claim shall be filed with the Company by or on behalf of Investor of this Note which shall assert any right to receive any payments in respect of the principal of and interest on this Note except subject to the payment in full of the principal of and interest on all of the Senior Indebtedness then outstanding.

 

(b)            Default on Senior Indebtedness.

(d)           Other Indebtedness. No indebtedness which does not constitute Senior Indebtedness shall be senior in any respect to the indebtedness represented by this Note.

 

(e)            Subrogation.

No such payments or distributions applicable to the Senior Indebtedness shall, as between the Company and its creditors, other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness and Investor, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of this Note; and for purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of Senior Indebtedness to which Investor would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 6 shall, as between the Company and its creditors, other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness and Investor, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of the Senior Indebtedness.

 

(f)            No Impairment. Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of Senior Indebtedness under this Section 6 to receive cash, securities or other properties otherwise payable or deliverable to Investor, nothing contained in this Section 6 shall impair, as between the Company and Investor, the obligation of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, to pay to Investor the principal hereof and interest hereon as and when the same become due and payable, or shall prevent Investor, upon default hereunder, from exercising all rights, powers and remedies otherwise provided herein or by applicable law.

(d)           Other Indebtedness. No indebtedness which does not constitute Senior Indebtedness shall be senior in any respect to the indebtedness represented by this Note.

 

(e)            Subrogation.

Upon such conversion of this Note, Investor hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Company a common stock purchase agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company containing customary representations and warranties and transfer restrictions (including a 180-day lock-up agreement in connection with an initial public

offering).

 

(ii)           In the event that the Company, at any time during which a portion of the principal balance remains outstanding, consummates an equity financing or a series of related transactions pursuant to which it either (a) sells shares of a series of preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”) to an institutional venture capital investor or (b) sells shares of the Preferred Stock to purchasers, none of which are institutional venture capital investors, with an aggregate sales price of not less than $1,000,000, including any and all notes which are converted into preferred stock (including this Note and the other Notes issued under the Note Purchase Agreement) (each, a “Qualified Equity Financing”), then the outstanding principal amount of and all accrued but unpaid interest under this Note shall automatically convert into shares of the Preferred Stock at the same price and on the same terms as the other investors that purchase the Preferred Stock in the Qualified Equity Financing. Upon such conversion of this Note, Investor hereby agrees to execute and deliver to the Company all transaction documents related to the Qualified Equity Financing, including a purchase agreement and other ancillary agreements, with customary representations and warranties and transfer restrictions (including a 180-day lock-up agreement in connection with an initial public offering), and having the same terms as those agreements entered into by the other purchasers of the Preferred Stock.

4.      Administration of the Plan.

 

A.    Administrator. The Plan shall be administered by the Board or a Committee appointed by the Board, which Committee shall be constituted to comply with Applicable Laws.

 

B.     Powers of the Administrator. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and, in the case of a Committee, the specific duties delegated by the Board to such Committee, and subject to the approval of any relevant authorities, the Administrator shall have the authority in its discretion:

 

 

 

 3 
 

 

(1)         to determine the Fair Market Value;

 

(2)         to select the Service Providers to whom Options may from time to time be granted hereunder;

 

(3)          to determine the number of Shares to be covered by each such Option granted hereunder;

 

(4)         to approve forms of agreement for use under the Plan;

 

(5)         to determine the terms and conditions of any Option granted hereunder. Such terms and conditions include, but are not limited to, the exercise price, the time or times when Options may be exercised (which may be based on performance criteria), any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Option or the Common Stock relating thereto, based in each case on such factors as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine;

 

(6)         to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, including rules and regulations relating to sub-plans established for the purpose of satisfying applicable foreign laws;

 

(7)         to allow Optionees to satisfy withholding tax obligations by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld. The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld shall be determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. All elections by Optionees to have Shares withheld for this purpose shall be made in such form and under such conditions as the Administrator may deem necessary or advisable; and

 

(8)         to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and Options granted pursuant to the Plan.

 

C.     Effect of Administrator’s Decision. All decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Administrator shall be final and binding on all Optionees.

 

5.      Eligibility. Nonstatutory Stock Options may be granted to Service Providers. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees.

 

6.      Limitations.

 

A.    Incentive Stock Option Limit. Each Option shall be designated in the Option Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. However, notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by the Optionee during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such Options shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 6(a), Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted.

 

 

 

 4 
 

 

B.     At-Will Employment. Neither the Plan nor any Option shall confer upon any Optionee any right with respect to continuing the Optionee’s relationship as a Service Provider with the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right or the Company’s right to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause, and with or without notice.

 

7.     Term of Plan. Subject to stockholder approval in accordance with Section 18, the Plan shall become effective upon its adoption by the Board. Unless sooner terminated under Section 14, it shall continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years from the later of (i) the effective date of the Plan, or (ii) the date of the most recent Board approval of an increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan.

 

8.     Term of Option. The term of each Option shall be stated in the Option Agreement; provided, however, that the term shall be no more than ten (10) years from the date of grant thereof. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an Optionee who, at the time the Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the Option shall be five (5) years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Option Agreement.

 

9.      Option Exercise Price and Consideration.

 

A.    Exercise Price. The per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option shall be such price as is determined by the Administrator, but shall be subject to the following:

 

(1)         In the case of an Incentive Stock Option

 

(a)  granted to an Employee who, at the time of grant of such Option, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

 

(b)  granted to any other Employee, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

 

(2)         In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option

 

(a)  granted to a Service Provider who, at the time of grant of such Option, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

 

(b)  granted to any other Service Provider, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 85% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

 

 

 

 5 
 

 

(3)         Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options may be granted with a per Share exercise price other than as required above pursuant to a merger or other corporate transaction.

 

B.     Forms of Consideration. The consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option, including the method of payment, shall be determined by the Administrator (and, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, shall be determined at the time of grant). Such consideration may consist of, without limitation, (1) cash, (2) check, (3) promissory note, (4) other Shares, provided Shares acquired directly from the Company (x) have been owned by the Optionee for more than six (6) months on the date of surrender, and (y) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which such Option shall be exercised, (5) consideration received by the Company under a cashless exercise program implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan, or (6) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment. In making its determination as to the type of consideration to accept, the Administrator shall consider if acceptance of such consideration may be reasonably expected to benefit the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may permit an Optionee to exercise his or her Option by delivery of a full-recourse promissory note secured by the purchased Shares. The terms of such promissory note shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion.

 

10.    Exercise of Option.

 

A.    Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder. Any Option granted hereunder shall be exercisable according to the terms hereof at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Option Agreement. Except in the case of Options granted to officers, Directors and Consultants, Options shall become exercisable at a rate of no less than 20% per year over five (5) years from the date the Options are granted. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise, vesting of Options granted hereunder to officers and Directors shall be suspended during any unpaid leave of absence. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.

 

An Option shall be deemed exercised when the Company receives (i) written or electronic notice of exercise (in accordance with the Option Agreement) from the person entitled to exercise the Option, and (ii) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised. Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Administrator and permitted by the Option Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of an Option shall be issued in the name of the Optionee or, if requested by the Optionee, in the name of the Optionee and his or her spouse. Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to the Shares, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Option is exercised. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 12 of the Plan.

 

 

 6 
 

 

Exercise of an Option in any manner shall result in a decrease in the number of Shares thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised.

 

B.     Termination of Relationship as a Service Provider. If an Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider, such Optionee may exercise his or her Option within thirty (30) days of termination, or such longer period of time as specified in the Option Agreement, to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Option Agreement). If, on the date of termination, the Optionee is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Optionee does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified by the Administrator, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.

 

C.     Disability of Optionee. If an Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider as a result of the Optionee’s Disability, the Optionee may exercise his or her Option within six (6) months of termination, or such longer period of time as specified in the Option Agreement, to the extent the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement). If, on the date of termination, the Optionee is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Optionee does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.

 

D.    Death of Optionee. If an Optionee dies while a Service Provider, the Option may be exercised within six (6) months following Optionee’s death, or such longer period of time as specified in the Option Agreement, to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of death (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement) by the Optionee’s designated beneficiary, provided such beneficiary has been designated prior to Optionee’s death in a form acceptable to the Administrator. If no such beneficiary has been designated by the Optionee, then such Option may be exercised by the personal representative of the Optionee’s estate or by the person(s) to whom the Option is transferred pursuant to the Optionee’s will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution. If, at the time of death, the Optionee is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall immediately revert to the Plan. If the Option is not so exercised within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan.

 

11.    Limited Transferability of Options. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, Options may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and may be exercised during the lifetime of the Optionee, only by the Optionee. If the Administrator in its sole discretion makes an Option transferable, such Option may only be transferred by (i) will, (ii) the laws of descent and distribution, (iii) instrument to an inter vivos or testamentary trust in which the Option is to be passed to beneficiaries upon the death of the Optionee, or (iv) gift to a member of Optionee’s immediate family (as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1(e) of the Exchange Act). In addition, any

transferable Option shall contain additional terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate.

 

 

 

 7 
 

 

12. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Liquidation or Change of Control.

 

A.    Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the number and type of Shares which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Options have yet been granted or which have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an Option, and the number and type of Shares covered by each outstanding Option, as well as the price per Share covered by each such outstanding Option, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number or type of issued Shares resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company. The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration.” Such adjustment shall be made by the Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number, type or price of Shares subject to an Option.

 

B.     Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator shall notify each Optionee as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction. The Administrator in its discretion may provide for an Optionee to have the right to exercise his or her Option until fifteen (15) days prior to such transaction as to all of the Optioned Stock covered thereby, including Shares as to which the Option would not otherwise be exercisable. In addition, the Administrator may provide that any Company repurchase option applicable to any Shares purchased upon exercise of an Option shall lapse as to all such Shares, provided the proposed dissolution or liquidation takes place at the time and in the manner contemplated. To the extent it has not been previously exercised, an Option will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action.

 

C.     Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control, each outstanding Option shall be assumed or an equivalent option substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation in a Change of Control refuses to assume or substitute for the Option, then the Optionee shall fully vest in and have the right to exercise the Option as to all of the Optioned Stock, including Shares as to which it would not otherwise be vested or exercisable. If an Option becomes fully vested and execisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a Change of Control, the Administrator shall notify the Optionee in writing or electronically that this Option shall be fully exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, and the Option shall terminate upon expiration of such period. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Option shall be considered assumed if, following the Change of Control, the Option confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share of Optioned Stock subject to the Option immediately prior to the Change of Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the Change of Control by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Change of Control is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Option, for each Share of Optioned Stock subject to the Option, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of common stock in the Change of Control.

 

 

 

 

 8 
 

 

13.    Time of Granting Options. The date of grant of an Option shall, for all purposes, be the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting such Option, or such later date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the determination shall be given to each Service Provider to whom an Option is so granted within a reasonable time after the date of such grant.

 

14.     Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

 

A.    Amendment and Termination. The Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan.

 

B.     Stockholder Approval. The Board shall obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable Laws.

 

C.     Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan shall impair the rights of any Optionee, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Optionee and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Optionee and the Company. Termination of the Plan shall not affect the Administrator’s ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Options granted under the Plan prior to the date of such termination.

 

15. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.

 

A.    Legal Compliance. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option unless the exercise of such Option and the issuance and delivery of such Shares shall comply with Applicable Laws and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.

 

B.     Investment Representations. As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the Administrator may require the person exercising such Option to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required.

 

16.    Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.

 

 

 

 9 
 

 

17.    Reservation of Shares. The Company, during the term of this Plan, shall at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.

 

18.    Stockholder Approval. The Plan shall be subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the date the Plan is adopted. Such stockholder approval shall be obtained in the degree and manner required under Applicable Laws.

 

19.    Information to Optionees. The Company shall provide to each Optionee and to each individual who acquires Shares pursuant to the Plan, not less frequently than annually during the period such Optionee has one or more Options outstanding, and, in the case of an individual who acquires Shares pursuant to the Plan, during the period such individual owns such Shares, copies of annual financial statements. The Company shall not be required to provide such statements to key employees whose duties in connection with the Company assure their access to equivalent information.
