CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

No: 1 Issuance Date: October 3, 2019
Principal: $5,000,000.00  

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, PowerFleet, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), hereby promises to pay to the order of [______] or its registered assigns (“Holder”) the amount set out above as the principal (as reduced pursuant to the terms hereof, the “Principal”) when due, whether upon the Maturity Date (as defined below), acceleration or otherwise (in each case, in accordance with the terms hereof) and to accrue interest (“Interest”) on all outstanding Principal at the interest rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, subject to Section 4 below (the “Interest Rate”), from October 3, 2019 (the “Issuance Date”) until the same becomes due and payable, whether upon the Maturity Date, acceleration, conversion or otherwise (in each case, in accordance with the terms hereof). This Convertible Promissory Note, including all Convertible Promissory Notes issued in exchange, transfer or replacement hereof, is referred to herein as this “Note.” This Note is an unsecured obligation of Parent.

 

This Note is being issued to Holder, as contemplated by Section 4.01 of that certain Investment and Transaction Agreement, dated as of March 13, 2019 (as subsequently amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 dated as of May 16, 2019, that certain Amendment No. 2 dated as of June 27, 2019 and that certain Amendment No. 3 dated as of the Issuance Date and as may be further amended, supplemented or modified from time to time in accordance with the terms of the Investment Agreement, the “Investment Agreement”), by and among Parent, I.D. Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“IDSY”), PowerFleet US Acquisition Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, and the investors set forth on Schedule I, annexed thereto, as such Schedule may be amended from time to time in accordance with the terms of the Investment Agreement. Capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Investment Agreement. This Note, which is referred to as a Convertible Note in the Investment Agreement, is subject to the following terms and conditions:

 

1. Definitions. For purposes of this Note:

 

(a) “Conversion Amount” has the meaning set forth in Section 5(a).

 

(b) “Conversion Date” has the meaning set forth in Section 5(a).

 

   

 

 

(c) “Event of Default” has the meaning set forth in Section 7(a).

 

(d) “Default Interest Event” has the meaning set forth in Section 4(a).

 

(e) “Maturity Date” has the meaning set forth in Section 2.

 

(f) “Maximum Rate” has the meaning set forth in Section 4(b).

 

(g) “Note Conversion Shares” has the meaning set forth in Section 5.

 

(h) “Note Conversion Price” means the then current “Series A Issue Price,” as defined in and determined under the Parent Charter.

 

(i) “Note Underlying Shares” means the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note Conversion Shares.

 

(j) “Parent Stockholder Approval” has the meaning set forth in Section 6(a).

 

(k) “Prepayment Premium” means, as of the date of determination, the amount, not less than zero, equal to ten percent (10.0%) of the Principal amount less all accrued Interest up to such date.

 

(l) “Proposal” has the meaning set forth in Section 6(a).

 

(m) “Proxy Statement” has the meaning set forth in Section 6(b)(i).

 

(n) “Stockholders Meeting” has the meaning set forth in Section 6(a).

 

2. Maturity. Unless this Note has been previously converted or indefeasibly prepaid in full in accordance with the terms of Section 5 or Section 3 below, respectively, the entire outstanding Principal balance and all accrued but unpaid Interest thereon shall become fully due and payable on September 30, 2020 (the “Maturity Date”).

 

3. Prepayment; Payments.

 

(a) No amounts due under this Note may be prepaid in whole or in part prior to the Maturity Date without the written consent of Holder, except that Parent may prepay, in full and not in part, the Principal amount, together with all accrued but unpaid Interest up to the date of prepayment, if concurrently with (and in addition to) such payment, Parent pays to Holder, in cash, the Prepayment Premium. The Prepayment Premium shall also be payable in the event of conversion of this Note prior to the Maturity Date in accordance with Section 5(a) or an Event of Default. Parent acknowledges and agrees that the Prepayment Premium shall be paid regardless of whether the prepayment was made voluntarily or involuntarily, or before or after any acceleration of Parent’s obligations under this Note, and regardless of whether the payment is made in connection with an Event of Default, as liquidated damages and compensation for the costs of making funds available under this Note, and as a consequence of a reasonable calculation of Holder’s lost profits in view of the difficulties and impracticability of determining actual damages resulting from such payment.

 

 -2- 

 

 

(b) Payments made by Parent to Holder under this Note shall be credited first to enforcement or collection costs, if any, second, to the Prepayment Premium, if any, third, to all accrued (through the date of prepayment) and unpaid Interest, and the remainder, if any, applied to the Principal balance. Whenever any payment of cash is to be made by Parent to any Person pursuant to this Note, such payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States of America. Amounts repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. All amounts payable by Parent hereunder shall be made without set-off or counterclaim.

 

4. Interest; Interest Rate.

 

(a) Interest on this Note shall accrue from and after the Issuance Date until the indefeasible payment in full of all amounts due under this Note. Interest shall be computed on the basis of actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year. Interest on this Note shall accrue at the Interest Rate; provided, however, that if Holder shall default in payment of Principal or Interest or any other amount becoming due hereunder, whether at scheduled maturity, by mandatory prepayment, acceleration or otherwise, or if any other Event of Default has occurred, or if this Note shall not have been converted and any portion of the Principal or Interest shall remain outstanding after the Maturity Date (each, a “Default Interest Event”), then commencing on the date of the occurrence of such Default Interest Event and on each monthly anniversary thereafter, the Interest Rate shall increase by 100 basis points until the indefeasible payment in full of all amounts due under this Note or in the case of an Event of Default, such Event of Default has been cured, but in no event shall the Interest Rate exceed seventeen and one-half percent (17.5%) per annum. From and after the occurrence of any Default Interest Event or in the case of an Event of Default, until such Event of Default has been cured, all accrued and unpaid Interest shall be payable upon demand. If this Note converts pursuant to Section 5, Interest shall be due upon such conversion and shall be payable by way of inclusion of Interest in the Conversion Amount in accordance with Section 5, otherwise, all Interest shall be payable in cash in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent and Holder intend for this Note to comply in all respects with all provisions of Law and not to violate, in any way, any legal limitations on interest charges. Accordingly, if, for any reason, Parent is required to pay, or has paid, Interest at a rate in excess of the highest rate of interest that may be charged by Holder or that Parent may legally contract to pay under applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”), then the applicable interest rate shall be deemed to be reduced, automatically and immediately, to the Maximum Rate, and such Interest payable hereunder shall be computed and paid at the Maximum Rate and the portion of all prior payments of Interest in excess of then applicable Maximum Rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the outstanding principal of this Note and applied as partial prepayments.

 

5. Conversion of Note. This Note shall be convertible into shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Note Conversion Shares”), on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 5.

 

(a) Conversion upon Parent Stockholder Approval. If Parent Stockholder Approval is obtained before the Maturity Date, then the entire outstanding Principal balance and all accrued but unpaid Interest thereon, together with the applicable Prepayment Premium (such aggregate amount, the “Conversion Amount”) will automatically upon the effectiveness of such Parent Stockholder Approval, without further action, notice or deed on the part of any Person, convert into a number of Note Conversion Shares equal to the quotient (rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares) of (i) the applicable Conversion Amount divided by (ii) the Note Conversion Price. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Note to the contrary, the Note Conversion Shares shall be deemed to have been issued on the date on which the Parent Stockholder Approval is obtained (the “Conversion Date”). From and after the Conversion Date, this Note shall represent the right of Holder to receive the Note Conversion Shares in accordance with Section 5(b), and Holder shall be deemed for all purposes a record holder of the Note Conversion Shares as of the Conversion Date, regardless of whether such Note Conversion Shares have been received by Holder or this Note has been surrendered in accordance with Section 19 (which actions shall be purely ministerial in nature and shall not affect the deemed issuance of the Note Conversion Shares to Holder on the Conversion Date).

 

 -3- 

 

 

(b) Notice of Issuance; Delivery of Note. Parent shall, as soon as practicable (but in no event later than three (3) Business Days) after the Conversion Date, issue and deliver to Holder or to its nominees, a notice of issuance or uncertificated shares in lieu of certificates for the full number of Note Conversion Shares deemed issued on the Conversion Date in accordance with the provisions of such Section 5(a).

 

6. Proxy Statement; Stockholders Meeting.

 

(a) Stockholders Meeting. At any time following the execution and delivery of this Note, Parent may, but shall not be obligated to, call a meeting of its stockholders, which may be its annual meeting of stockholders (the “Stockholders Meeting”) to seek approval of Parent’s stockholders for the issuance of all of the Note Conversion Shares in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 (the “Proposal” and the approval of the Proposal by the holders of the requisite number of shares of Parent Common Stock as contemplated by this Section 6, the “Parent Stockholder Approval”). In connection with the Stockholders Meeting, Parent, acting through the Parent Board, shall (i) recommend the approval of the Proposal by Parent’s stockholders in the Proxy Statement (as defined below), unless such recommendation would result in a violation of the fiduciary duties of the Parent Board under applicable Law, (ii) otherwise comply with all legal and Nasdaq requirements applicable to such meeting, (iii) use its reasonable best efforts to solicit from its stockholders proxies in favor of (it being understood that a proxy card will be deemed voted “in favor of” a matter to be acted upon by Parent’s stockholders if it provides the stockholder with the ability to either vote for, vote against or abstain from voting on, such matter) the approval of the Proposal and (iv) subject to the parenthetical in the immediately preceding clause (iii), take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to secure the approval of the Proposal in order to satisfy the requirement of applicable Law and the rules and regulations of Nasdaq.

 

(b) Proxy Materials.

Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Proxy Statement complies as to form in all material respects with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and with all other applicable Law. The Proxy Statement shall include (i) a statement to the effect that the Parent Board has determined that the Proposal is in the best interests of Parent and its stockholders and has approved and declared advisable the issuance of the Note Conversion Shares and (ii) the recommendation of the Parent Board in favor of the approval of the Proposal, unless such recommendation would result in a violation of the fiduciary duties of the Parent Board under applicable Law.

 

 -4- 

 

 

(ii) Parent, on the one hand, and Holder, on the other hand, shall furnish all information concerning such party and its Affiliates to the other, and provide such other assistance, as may be reasonably requested by such other party and shall otherwise reasonably assist and cooperate with the other in the preparation of the content of the Proxy Statement related to the Proposal, and the resolution of any comments received by Parent from the SEC. Parent shall give Holder the reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Proxy Statement (solely with respect to the Proposal) and Parent shall give due consideration to Holder’s comments with respect thereto. Parent shall make all necessary filings with respect to the Proposal under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and any necessary state securities Laws or “blue sky” notice requirements in connection with the issuance of the Note Conversion Shares. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Proxy Statement to be delivered to its stockholders in accordance with applicable Law and the rules and regulations of Nasdaq. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent reasonably practicable, Parent shall cooperate and consult, in good faith, with Holder with respect to the filing with, or submission to, the SEC and Nasdaq of all forms, reports, applications or other documents to be so filed or submitted in connection with the Proposal, which shall include, without limitation, providing Holder the reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any such form, report, application or other document. Parent shall give due consideration to Holder’s comments with respect to any such form, report, application or other document.

(iv) Parent shall notify Holder promptly of the receipt of any comments, whether written or oral, from the SEC or the staff of the SEC and of any request by the SEC or the staff of the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement related to the Proposal or for additional information and shall supply, within one (1) day of receipt thereof, Holder with copies of all correspondence between Parent or its representatives on the one hand, and the SEC or the staff of the SEC, on the other hand, with respect to the Proposal. Parent shall give Holder and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to participate in preparing the proposed response by Parent and/or Parent to comments received from the SEC or its staff related to the Proposal and to provide comments on any proposed response thereto, and Parent shall give due consideration to any such comments and shall not submit any such response without Holder’s prior review. Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to respond promptly to any comments of the SEC or its staff with respect to the Proxy Statement.

This Note, the Note Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note and the Note Underlying Shares may not be offered for sale, sold, transferred or assigned (a) in the absence of (i) an effective registration statement for this Note, the Note Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note or the Note Underlying Shares, or (ii) an opinion of counsel (selected by Holder and reasonably acceptable to Parent), in a form reasonable acceptable to Parent, that this Note, the Note Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of this Note and the Note Underlying Shares may be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an exemption from registration; provided that such opinion of counsel shall not be required in connection with any such sale, assignment or transfer to an institutional accredited investor that prior to such sale, assignment or transfer is a holder of Notes or an Affiliate of Holder, or (b) Holder provides Parent with assurance (reasonably satisfactory to Parent) that such Note, the Note Conversion Shares issuable upon the conversion of this Note or the Note Underlying Shares can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144.

 

13. Reissuance of this Note.

 

(a) Transfer. The Note may be transferred or otherwise assigned only by surrender of this Note and issuance of a new Note in accordance with this Section 13, and neither this Note nor any interests therein may be sold, transferred or assigned to any Person except upon satisfaction of the conditions specified in this Section 13. If this Note is to be transferred or assigned, Holder shall surrender this Note to Parent, whereupon Parent will forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 13(d)), registered as Holder may request, representing the outstanding Principal being transferred by Holder and, if less than the entire outstanding Principal is being transferred, a new Note (in accordance with Section 13(d)) to Holder representing the outstanding Principal not being transferred. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 13, transfers of this Note shall be subject to Section 12.

 

(b) Lost, Stolen or Mutilated Note. Upon receipt by Parent of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Parent of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by Holder to Parent in customary form and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Note, Parent shall execute and deliver to Holder a new Note (in accordance with Section 13(d)) representing the outstanding Principal.

 

 -7- 

 

 

(c) Note Exchangeable for Different Denominations. This Note is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by Holder at the principal office of Parent, for a new Note or Notes (in accordance with Section 13(d) and in Principal amounts of at least $1,000) representing in the aggregate the outstanding Principal of this Note, and each such new Note will represent such portion of such outstanding Principal as is designated by Holder at the time of such surrender.

 

(d) Issuance of New Notes. Whenever Parent is required to issue a new Note pursuant to the terms of this Note, such new Note: (i) shall be of like tenor with this Note, (ii) shall represent, as indicated on the face of such new Note and subject to the other provisions of this Section 13, the Principal remaining outstanding, (iii) shall have an issuance date, as indicated on the face of such new Note, which is the same as the Issuance Date of this Note, (iv) shall have the same rights and conditions as this Note, and (v) shall represent accrued Interest on the Principal of such new Note, from the Issuance Date.

 

14. Remedies, Characterizations, Other Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive Relief. The rights and remedies of Holder provided in this Note shall be cumulative and in addition to all, and not exclusive of any, other rights and remedies available to Holder under this Note and any of the other Transaction Documents at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit Holder’s right to pursue actual and consequential damages for any failure by Parent to comply with the terms of this Note. Amounts set forth or provided for herein with respect to payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the amounts to be received by Holder and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of Parent (or the performance thereof). Parent acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. Parent therefore agrees that, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, Holder shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to seek an injunction restraining any breach, and to seek to specifically enforce this Note (including, without limitation, Section 5) without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

 

15. Payments of Enforcement Costs. If (a) this Note is collected or enforced through any legal proceeding or Holder otherwise takes action to collect amounts then due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of this Note or (b) there occurs any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of Parent or other proceedings affecting Parent’s creditors’ rights and involving a claim under this Note, then Parent shall pay the costs incurred by Holder for such collection, enforcement or action or in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other proceeding, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements.

 

16. Construction; Headings. This Note shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by Parent and Holder and shall not be construed against any Person as the drafter hereof. The headings of this Note are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Note.

 

17. No Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of Holder in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall affect any such power, right or privilege or operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.

 

 -8- 

 

 

18. Notices. Whenever notice is required to be given under this Note, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in accordance with the Investment Agreement. Parent shall provide Holder with prompt written notice of all actions taken pursuant to this Note to the extent required hereunder, including in reasonable detail a description of such action and the reason therefor.

 

19. Cancellation. After all Principal, accrued Interest and other amounts at any time owed on this Note have been indefeasibly paid in full or converted in accordance with Section 5, as the case may be, this Note shall automatically be deemed canceled, shall, subject to Section 13(b), be surrendered to Parent at the principal office of Parent for cancellation and shall not be reissued.

 

20. Waiver of Notice. To the extent permitted by Law, Parent hereby waives demand, notice, presentment, protest, honor, dishonor and all other demands and notices (other than the notices expressly provided for in this Note) in connection with the delivery, acceptance, default or enforcement of this Note.

 

21. Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Law of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof or of any other jurisdiction that would result in the application of the Law of any other jurisdiction.
