In connection with the Offering, on June 26, 2018, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to that certain Share Purchase Agreement, dated January 13, 2016 (the “Purchase Agreement”), with Eastern Capital Limited (“Eastern”). to the Purchase Agreement, Eastern was subject to a three(3)-year standstill agreement set forth in Section 4.7 of the Purchase Agreement (the “Standstill Provision”) that restricted additional acquisitions of the Company’s Common Stock by Eastern and its controlled affiliates to limit its beneficial ownership of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock to a maximum of 38% (the “Eastern Beneficial Ownership Limitation”), absent approval by a majority of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Amendment increases the Eastern Beneficial Ownership Limitation to 48% and extends the restrictions under the Standstill Provision until June 26, 2020. In accordance with the terms of the Standstill Provision, as amended, the Company’s Board of Directors duly authorized the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to offer Eastern to purchase shares in the Offering, provided that, when taken together with all other equity securities of the Company beneficially owned by Eastern and its controlled affiliates following consummation of the Offering, Eastern and its controlled affiliates would not beneficially own more than 48% of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the closing of the Offering, including all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock, and provided, further, that Eastern agreed to extend the standstill restrictions for two (2) additional years beginning with the date of Eastern’s or its controlled affiliate’s purchase of securities in the Offering.
