Item 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
|
Assignment and Assumption Agreement
On February 21, 2023, Tilray Brands, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Tilray” or the “Company”), entered into an assignment and assumption
agreement (the “Assignment and Assumption Agreement”) with Double Diamond Holdings Ltd. (“DDH”), an Ontario corporation, pursuant to which, among other things, Tilray
acquired from DDH a promissory note in the amount of USD$6,648,304 (the “Note”) payable by 1974568 Ontario Limited (“Aphria Diamond”). DDH is a joint venturer with
Aphria Inc., Tilray’s direct and wholly-owned subsidiary, in Aphria Diamond.
As consideration for the Note, Tilray issued 2,208,739 shares of its Class 2 common stock and 120,000 shares of its Series A preferred stock (collectively, the “Consideration Shares”) to DDH.
Voting Agreement
Also on February 21, 2023, in connection with the execution of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, DDH entered into a voting agreement (the “Voting Agreement”) with the
Company. After giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, DDH beneficially owns less than 1% percent of the outstanding shares of Class 2 common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company
(the “Class 2 Common Stock”), taking into account shares of Series A preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Preferred Stock” or “Series A Preferred Stock”) on an as-if-converted-to-Class-2-Common-Stock basis. Under the Voting Agreement, DDH has (a) agreed to vote the Consideration Shares, and any other shares of capital stock of the
Company it acquires following the execution of the Voting Agreement, (i) in favor of the Charter Amendments (as defined below) at any meeting of the Company’s stockholders held to vote thereon (including at any adjournment and postponement
thereof); and (ii) against any action, proposal, transaction, or agreement that could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, discourage, adversely affect, or inhibit the timely approval of the Charter Amendments or the holding of
any meeting to vote thereon (including any adjournment or postponement thereof) or change in any manner the voting rights of any class of shares of the Company (including any amendments to the Company’s organizational documents which are not
otherwise consistent with the Charter Amendments); and (b) granted to the Company an irrevocable proxy to vote such shares in such manner.
The Voting Agreement also contains restrictions on the transfer of any shares of Preferred Stock of the Company held by DDH during the term of the Voting Agreement.
|
Item 3.02.
|
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
|
The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Form 8-K is incorporated into this Item 3.02 by reference.
The Consideration Shares were issued in reliance on the exemption provided by Regulation S (“Regulation S”) of the Securities Act which permits offers or sales of securities by
the Company outside of the United States that are not made to “U.S. Persons” or for the account or benefit of a “U.S. Person,” as that term is defined in Rule 902 of Regulation S.
No underwriter participated in the offer and sale of the Consideration Shares, and no commission or other remuneration was paid or given directly or indirectly in connection therewith.
|
Item 3.03.
|
Material Modifications to Rights of Security Holders.
|
To the extent required, the information included below in Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.03.
|
Item. 5.03.
|
Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
|
On February 21, 2023, in connection with the issuance of the Consideration Shares, Tilray filed a certificate of designation (the “Certificate of Designation”) with the
Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, effective as of the time of filing, designating the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock.
General; No Transferability. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock will be uncertificated and represented in book-entry form. No shares of Series A Preferred Stock may be
transferred by the holder thereof.
Voting Rights. The Certificate of Designation provides that each share of Preferred Stock will have 1,000 votes and will vote together with the outstanding shares of Class 2
Common Stock as a single class exclusively with respect to any proposal to adopt amendments to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (as amended) (collectively, the “Charter Amendments”)
(as the same may be set forth and more particularly described in any definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission) by (a) eliminating provisions relating to the Company’s Class 1 common
stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class 1 Common Stock”), in connection with the previous automatic conversion of all issued and outstanding shares of Class 1 Common Stock into shares of Class 2 Common
Stock, (b) reclassifying the authorized shares of Class 1 Common Stock as Class 2 Common Stock, and (c) adding a provision to automatically reclassify each issued and outstanding share of Class 2 Common Stock as one share of common stock, par value
$0.0001, of the Company (“Common Stock”), the cumulative result being the Company having only two classes of stock authorized for issuance—Common Stock and Preferred Stock.
The Series A Preferred Stock will be voted, without action by the holder, on any such proposal in the same proportion as shares of Class 2 Common Stock are voted. The Series A Preferred Stock otherwise has no voting
rights except as otherwise required by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
Dividends. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends on shares of Series A Preferred Stock equal (on an as-if-converted-to-Class-2-Common-Stock
basis, disregarding for such purpose any conversion limitations hereunder) to and in the same form as dividends actually paid on shares of the Class 2 Common Stock when, as and if such dividends are paid on shares of the Class 2 Common Stock. No
other dividends shall be paid on shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
Rank; Liquidation. The Series A Preferred Stock ranks pari passu with the Class 2 Common Stock as to any distribution of assets upon
a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntarily or involuntarily.
Automatic Conversion. Upon the closing of the polls at any meeting of the Company’s stockholders held for the purpose of voting on the Charter Amendments (taking into account
any adjournment or postponement thereof), each issued and outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock will, without any further action on the part of the holder thereof or the Company, automatically be converted (the “Automatic Conversion”) into a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as determined by dividing the Stated Value (as defined by the Certificate of Designation) by the Conversion Price then in effect. The
conversion price per share upon an Automatic Conversion for the Series A Preferred Stock shall be the Stated Value of such share, subject to adjustment in the event that the Conversion Price then in effect is equal to or less than the Minimum
Price, as defined in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d)(1)(A) (the “Conversion Price”).
The foregoing summary of the Certificate of Designation does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, such document, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form
8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Exhibit 3.1
Tilray Brands, Inc.
Certificate of Designation
of
Series A Preferred Stock
PURSUANT TO SECTION 151 OF THE
GENERAL CORPORATION LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE
THE UNDERSIGNED DOES HEREBY CERTIFY, on behalf of Tilray Brands, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), that the following resolution was duly adopted by the board of directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”), in accordance with the provisions of Section 151 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended (the “DGCL”), acting by written consent without a meeting on February 20, 2023, which resolution provides for the creation of a series of the Corporation’s Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, which is designated as
“Series A Preferred Stock,” with the rights, powers and preferences, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, set forth therein.
WHEREAS, the amended and restated certificate of incorporation of the Corporation (as amended, the “Certificate of Incorporation”), provides for a class of capital stock of the Corporation known as preferred stock, consisting of 10,000,000 shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the
“Preferred Stock”), issuable from time to time in one or more series, and further provides that the Board of Directors is expressly authorized, to provide
for the issue of all or any of the shares of the Preferred Stock in one or more series, and to fix the number of shares and to determine or alter for each such series, such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designation,
preferences, and relative, participating, optional, or other rights and such qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated and expressed in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors providing for the
issuance of such shares and as may be permitted by the DGCL.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that effective as of February 20, 2023, pursuant to authority conferred upon the Board of Directors by
the Certificate of Incorporation, (i) a series of Preferred Stock be, and hereby is, authorized by the Board of Directors; (ii) the Board of Directors hereby authorizes the issuance of 120,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock; and (iii) the Board
of Directors hereby fixes the designations, powers, preferences and rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of such shares of Preferred Stock, in addition to any provisions set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation
that are applicable to all series of the Preferred Stock, as follows:
TERMS OF PREFERRED STOCK
1.
Designation, Amount and Par
Value. The series of Preferred Stock created hereby shall be designated as the Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”),
and the number of shares so designated shall be 120,000. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall have a par value of $0.0001 per share and a stated value equal to $3.01
(the “Stated Value”).
2.
Dividends.
Holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, and the Corporation shall pay, dividends on shares of Series A Preferred Stock equal (on an as-if-converted-to-Class-2-Common-Stock (as defined below) basis, disregarding for such
purpose any conversion limitations hereunder) to and in the same form as dividends actually paid on shares of the Class 2 Common Stock when, as and if such dividends are paid on shares of the Class 2 Common Stock. No other dividends shall be
paid on shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
3.
Voting Rights.
Except as otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation or required by law, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the following voting rights:
3.1.
Except as otherwise provided herein, each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock shall
have 1,000 votes per share. The outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall vote together with the outstanding shares of Class 2 common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class 2 Common Stock”), of the Corporation as a single class exclusively with respect to the Charter Amendments (as defined below) and shall not be entitled to vote on any other matter except
to the extent required under the DGCL; provided, however, that the number of authorized shares of Series A Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased
(but not below the number of shares thereof then-outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of
the DGCL (or any successor provision thereto), and no vote of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock voting separately as a class shall be required therefor. As used herein, the term “Charter Amendments” means, jointly and severally, any proposal to adopt amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation (as the same may be set forth and more particularly described in any
definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission) by (a) eliminating provisions relating to the Corporation’s Class 1 common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class 1 Common Stock”), in connection with the previous automatic conversion of all issued and outstanding shares of Class 1 Common Stock into shares of
Class 2 Common Stock, (b) reclassifying the authorized shares of Class 1 Common Stock as Class 2 Common Stock, and (c) adding a provision to automatically reclassify each issued and outstanding share of Class 2 Common Stock as one share of common
stock, par value $0.0001, of the Corporation (“Common Stock”), the cumulative result being the Corporation having only two classes of stock authorized
for issuance—Common Stock and Preferred Stock.
3.2.
Unless otherwise provided on any applicable proxy or ballot with respect to the voting on the
Charter Amendments, the vote of each share of Series A Preferred Stock entitled to vote on the Charter Amendments or any other matter brought before any meeting of stockholders held to vote on the Charter Amendments (including any adjournment or
postponement thereof) shall be voted in the same manner and proportion as shares of Class 2 Common Stock that are entitled to vote thereon are voted (excluding any shares of Class 2 Common Stock that are not voted) on the Charter Amendments or
such other matter, as applicable, and the proxy or ballot with respect to shares of Class 2 Common Stock held by any holder on whose behalf such proxy or ballot is submitted will be deemed to include all shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by
such holder. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock will not receive a separate ballot or proxy to cast votes with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock on the Charter Amendments or any other matter brought before any meeting of stockholders held
to vote on the Charter Amendments (including any adjournment or postponement thereof).
4.
Rank; Liquidation. The Series A Preferred Stock shall rank pari passu with
the Class 2 Common Stock as to any distribution of assets upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntarily or involuntarily (a “Dissolution”). For the avoidance of any doubt, but without limiting the foregoing, neither the merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into any other entity, nor the sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the Corporation’s assets shall, in and of itself, be deemed to constitute a Dissolution.
5.
Automatic Conversion.
5.1.
The Series A Preferred Stock shall only be convertible into Common Stock pursuant to an Automatic
Conversion (as defined below) and shall in no event be convertible at the option of the holder thereof. Shares of the Series A Preferred Stock converted into shares of the Common Stock in accordance with the terms hereof shall resume the status
of authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock and shall no longer be designated as Series A Preferred Stock.
2
5.2.
The conversion price per share upon an Automatic Conversion for the Series A Preferred Stock
shall be the Stated Value of such share, subject to adjustment as set forth and more particularly described herein (the “Conversion Price”).
5.3.
Upon the closing of the polls at any meeting of the Corporation’s stockholders held for the
purpose of voting on the Charter Amendments (taking into account any adjournment or postponement thereof) (the “Conversion Time”), each issued and
outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock shall, without any further action on the part of the holder thereof or the Corporation, automatically be converted (the “Automatic Conversion”) into a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as determined by dividing the Stated Value by the Conversion Price then in effect; provided, however, that in no event shall such Conversion Price be equal to or less than the
Minimum Price, as defined in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d)(1)(A).
5.4.
The Corporation shall not be required to provide notice to any holder of outstanding shares of
Series A Preferred Stock of the Automatic Conversion or the Conversion Time.
5.5.
No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion
of the Series A Preferred Stock. As to any fraction of a share which the holder thereof would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Corporation shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final
fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share.
5.6.
All shares of Series A Preferred Stock converted as provided in this Section 5 shall no longer be deemed outstanding as of the Conversion Time, and all rights with respect to such shares shall immediately cease and terminate as of such time, other than the right of the holder to receive shares
of Common Stock and payment in lieu of any fraction of a share, if applicable, in exchange therefor.
6.
No Permitted Transfer.
Shares of Series A Preferred Stock will be uncertificated and represented in book-entry form. No shares of Series A Preferred Stock may be transferred by the holder thereof.
7.
Fractional Shares.
The Series A Preferred Stock may be issued in whole shares or in any fraction of a share that is one one-thousandth (1/1,000th) of a share or any integral multiple of such fraction, which fractions shall entitle the holder, in proportion to such
holder’s fractional shares, to exercise voting rights, participate in distributions upon a Dissolution and have the benefit of any other rights of holders of Series A Preferred Stock.
8.
Amendment and Waiver.
No provision of this Certificate of Designation may be amended, modified, or waived except by an instrument in writing executed by the Corporation, and any such written amendment, modification, or waiver will be binding upon the Corporation and
each holder of Series A Preferred Stock.
9.
Severability.
Whenever possible, each provision hereof shall be interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision hereof is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, then such provision shall be
ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating or otherwise adversely affecting the remaining provisions hereof.
[Remainder of page intentionally left blank.]

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation has caused this Certificate of Designation of Series A Preferred Stock to be duly executed by the
undersigned duly authorized officer as of this 21st day of February, 2023.

Tilray Brands, Inc.
265 Talbot Street West
Leamington, Ontario, Canada
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We are acting as counsel to Tilray Brands, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the offering of 2,208,739 shares of its common stock, par value $0.0001, to be sold by certain selling stockholders (the “Shares”) as described in the Prospectus (as defined below), pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration Statement No. 333-267788) (the “Registration Statement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), the prospectus included in the Registration Statement (the “Base Prospectus”), and the prospectus supplement, dated February 21, 2023, filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations of the Act
(the “Prospectus Supplement” and together with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”). The Registration Statement was filed with the Commission and became automatically effective on October 7, 2022.
As counsel for the Company, we have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such documents, corporate
records, certificates of public officials and other instruments as we have deemed necessary for the purposes of rendering this opinion and we are familiar with the proceedings taken and proposed to be taken by the Company in relation to the
registration of the resale of the Shares. In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with the originals of all documents submitted to us
as copies. This opinion letter is given, and all statements herein are made, in the context of the foregoing.
This opinion letter is based as to matters of law solely on the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended. We express no opinion herein as to any other
laws, statutes, ordinances, rules, or regulations. As used herein, the term “Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended” includes the statutory provisions contained therein, all applicable provisions of the Delaware Constitution and reported
judicial decisions interpreting these laws.
Based upon, subject to and limited by the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
This opinion letter has been prepared for use in connection with the Prospectus Supplement. We assume no obligation to advise you of any changes in the
foregoing subsequent to the date of the Prospectus Supplement.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter as Exhibit 5.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the Commission on or
about February 21, 2023, which will be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, and the reference to us under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus Supplement, which is a part of the Registration Statement. In giving such
consent, we do not hereby admit that we are acting within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules or regulations of the Commission thereunder.

Very truly yours,

Stockholder represents and warrants to the Company that:
(a) Ownership of Shares. Stockholder (i) is the Beneficial Owner of, and has good and marketable title to, all of the Original Shares free and clear of
any proxy, voting restriction, adverse claim, or other Liens, other than those created by this Agreement or under applicable federal or state securities laws; and (ii) has the sole voting and sole disposition power over all of the Original Shares.
Except pursuant to this Agreement, there are no options, warrants, or other rights, agreements, arrangements, or commitments of any character to which Stockholder is a party relating to the pledge, disposition, or voting of any of the Original
Shares and there are no voting trusts or voting agreements with respect to the Original Shares.
(b) Disclosure of All Shares Owned. Stockholder does not Beneficially Own any shares of capital stock of the Company other than the Original Shares.
(c) Power and Authority; Binding Agreement. Stockholder has full corporate power and authority to enter into, execute, and deliver this Agreement and
to perform fully Stockholder’s obligations hereunder (including the proxy described in Section 3(b))). This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Stockholder and constitutes the legal, valid, and binding obligation of
Stockholder, enforceable against Stockholder in accordance with its terms except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally.
(d) No Conflict. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Stockholder does not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and
the compliance with the provisions hereof will not, conflict with or violate any Law applicable to Stockholder or result in any breach of or violation of, or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a
default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration, or cancellation of, or result in the creation of any Lien on any of the Shares pursuant to, any agreement or other instrument or obligation including constating
documents binding upon Stockholder or any of the Shares.
(e) No Consents. No consent, approval, Order, or authorization of, or registration, declaration, or filing with, any Governmental Entity or any other
Person on the part of Stockholder is required in connection with the valid execution and delivery of this Agreement.
(f) No Litigation. There is no Legal Action pending against, or, to the knowledge of Stockholder, threatened against or affecting, Stockholder that
could reasonably be expected to materially impair or materially adversely affect the ability of Stockholder to perform Stockholder’s obligations hereunder or to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on a timely basis.
-4-
3. Agreement to Vote Shares; Irrevocable Proxy.
(a) Agreement to Vote and Approve. Stockholder irrevocably and unconditionally agrees during the term of this Agreement, at any annual or special
meeting of the Company called with respect to the following matters, and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, and on every action or approval by written consent or consents of the Company stockholders with respect to any of the following
matters, to vote or cause the holder of record to vote the Shares (i) in favor of (1) the Charter Amendments; and (2) any proposal to adjourn or postpone such meeting of stockholders of the Company to a later date if there are not sufficient votes
to approve the Charter Amendments; and (ii) against (1) any any action, proposal, transaction, or agreement which could reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty, or any other obligation or agreement
of the Company or Stockholder under the Assignment Agreement, or of Stockholder under this Agreement, and (2) any action, proposal, transaction, or agreement that could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, discourage, adversely
affect, or inhibit the timely approval of the Charter Amendments or the holding of the meeting to vote thereon (including any adjournment or postponement thereof) or change in any manner the voting rights of any class of shares of the Company
(including any amendments to the Company’s organizational documents which are not otherwise consistent with the Charter Amendments); provided, however, that any such Shares of Preferred Stock voted on such proposals shall, automatically and without further action of Stockholder, be voted in
the same proportion as Shares of Class 2 Common Stock (excluding any Shares of Class 2 Common Stock that are not voted) that are entitled to vote on such proposals are voted on the Charter Amendments. For the avoidance of doubt, and for
illustrative purposes only, if 30% of the aggregate votes cast by Shares of Class 2 Common Stock in connection with the Charter Amendments are voted against such proposal, and 70% of the aggregate votes cast by Shares of Class 2 Common Stock,
voting in connection with the Charter Amendments, are voted in favor thereof, then 30% of the votes cast by the Shares of Preferred Stock voting in connection with the Charter Amendments shall vote against the approval of the Charter Amendments,
and 70% of such votes shall be cast in favor of the Charter Amendments.
(b) Irrevocable Proxy. Stockholder hereby appoints the Company and any designee of the Company and each of them individually, until the Expiration Time
(at which time this proxy shall automatically be revoked), its proxies and attorneys-in-fact, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to vote or act by written consent during the term of this Agreement with respect to the Shares in
accordance with Section 3(a). This proxy and power of attorney is given to secure the performance of the duties of Stockholder under this Agreement. Stockholder shall take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be necessary
to effectuate the intent of this proxy. This proxy and power of attorney granted by Stockholder shall be irrevocable during the term of this Agreement, shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable
proxy, and shall revoke any and all prior proxies granted by Stockholder with respect to the Shares. The power of attorney granted by Stockholder herein is a durable power of attorney and shall survive the bankruptcy of Stockholder. The proxy and
power of attorney granted hereunder shall terminate upon the termination of this Agreement.
-5-
4. No Voting Trusts or Other Arrangement.
Stockholder agrees that, during the term of this Agreement, Stockholder will not, and will not permit any entity
under Stockholder’s control to, deposit any of the Shares in a voting trust, grant any proxies with respect to the Shares, or subject any of the Shares to any arrangement with respect to the voting of the Shares other than agreements entered into
with the Company.
5. Transfer and Encumbrance.
Stockholder agrees that during the term of this Agreement, Stockholder will not, directly or indirectly, transfer,
sell, offer, exchange, assign, pledge, convey any legal or Beneficial Ownership interest in or otherwise dispose of (by merger (including by conversion into securities or other consideration), by tendering into any tender or exchange offer, by
operation of Law, or otherwise), or encumber (“Transfer”) any of the shares of Preferred Stock or enter into any contract, option, or other
agreement with respect to, or consent to, a Transfer of, any of the Preferred Stock shares or Stockholder’s voting or economic interest therein. Any attempted Transfer of the Preferred Stock shares or any interest therein in violation of this Section 5 shall be null and void.
6. Additional Shares.
Stockholder agrees that all shares of capital stock of the Company that Stockholder purchases, acquires the right to
vote, or otherwise acquires Beneficial Ownership of after the execution of this Agreement and prior to the Expiration Time shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and shall constitute Shares for all purposes of this Agreement.
In the event of any stock split, stock dividend, merger, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares, or the like of the capital stock of the Company affecting the Shares, the terms of this Agreement shall
apply to the resulting securities and such resulting securities shall be deemed to be “Shares” for all purposes of this Agreement.
7. Waiver of Certain Actions.
Stockholder hereby agrees not to commence or participate in, and to take all actions necessary to opt out of
any class in any class action with respect to, any Action, derivative or otherwise, against the Company, or any of its subsidiaries or successors: (a) challenging the validity of, or seeking to enjoin or delay the operation of, any provision of this
Agreement or the Assignment Agreement (including any claim seeking to enjoin or delay any meeting held to vote upon the Charter Amendments); or (b) to the fullest extent permitted under Law, alleging a breach of any duty of the board of directors of
the Company in connection with the Charter Amendments, Assignment Agreement, this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby.
-6-
8. Termination.
This Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of (the “Expiration Time”) (a) the Conversion Time (as defined in the certificate of designation for the Preferred Stock, as attached to the Assignment Agreement); (b) the date on which the Assignment
Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms; and (c) the termination of this Agreement by mutual written consent of the Parties. Nothing in this Section 8
shall relieve or otherwise limit the liability of any Party for any intentional breach of this Agreement prior to such termination.
9. No Solicitation.
Stockholder shall not, and shall cause its subsidiaries not to, and shall use it reasonable best efforts to cause its
Affiliates’ and Representatives not to: (a) directly or indirectly solicit, seek, initiate, knowingly encourage, or knowingly facilitate any inquiries regarding, or the making of, any submission or announcement of a proposal or offer that
constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, any Takeover Proposal; (b) directly or indirectly engage in, continue, or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish or afford access to any other Person any
information in connection with or for the purpose of encouraging or facilitating, any proposal or offer that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, any Takeover Proposal; (c) enter into any agreement, agreement in principle, letter
of intent, memorandum of understanding, or similar arrangement with respect to a Takeover Proposal; (d) solicit proxies with respect to a Takeover Proposal or otherwise encourage or assist any Person in taking or planning any action that could
reasonably be expected to compete with, restrain, or otherwise serve to interfere with or inhibit the timely approval of the Charter Amendments or the holding of the meeting to vote thereon (including any adjournment or postponement thereof); or (e)
initiate a stockholders’ vote or action by written consent of the Company’s stockholders with respect to a Takeover Proposal.
10. Further Assurances.
Stockholder agrees, from time to time, and without additional consideration, to execute and deliver such
additional proxies, documents, and other instruments and to take all such further action as the Company may reasonably request to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
11. Stop Transfer Instructions.
At all times commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and continuing until the Expiration
Time, in furtherance of this Agreement, Stockholder hereby authorizes the Company or its counsel to notify the Company’s transfer agent that there is a stop transfer order with respect to all of the Shares (and that this Agreement places limits on
the voting and transfer of the Shares), subject to the provisions hereof and provided that any such stop transfer order and notice will immediately be withdrawn and terminated by the Company following the Expiration Time.
-7-
12. Specific Performance.
Each Party hereto acknowledges that it will be impossible to measure in money the damage to the other Party if a
Party hereto fails to comply with any of the obligations imposed by this Agreement, that every such obligation is material and that, in the event of any such failure, the other Party will not have an adequate remedy at Law or damages. Accordingly,
each Party hereto agrees that injunctive relief or other equitable remedy, in addition to remedies at Law or damages, is the appropriate remedy for any such failure and will not oppose the seeking of such relief on the basis that the other Party has
an adequate remedy at Law. Each Party hereto agrees that it will not seek, and agrees to waive any requirement for, the securing or posting of a bond in connection with the other Party’s seeking or obtaining such equitable relief.
13. Entire Agreement.
This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, between the Parties hereto with respect to the
subject matter hereof and contains the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be amended or supplemented, and no provisions hereof may be modified or waived, except by an instrument in
writing signed by both of the Parties hereto. No waiver of any provisions hereof by either Party shall be deemed a waiver of any other provisions hereof by such Party, nor shall any such waiver be deemed a continuing waiver of any provision hereof
by such Party.
14. Notices.
All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and
shall be deemed to have been given upon the earlier of actual receipt or (a) when delivered by hand (providing proof of delivery); (b) when received by the addressee if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier (receipt requested); or (c) on

or unenforceable, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby
