Exhibit 10.26

 

SHARE ESCROW AGREEMENT

 

THIS SHARE ESCROW AGREEMENT (“Agreement”), dated as of the 20^th day of March, 2018, is by and among EVO Transportation & Energy Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), each of the shareholders signatory hereto (each a “Shareholder” and collectively, the “Shareholders”), and the Company, in its capacity as escrow agent hereunder, (the “Escrow Agent”).

 

WHEREAS, each Shareholder has agreed to place in escrow certain shares of common stock of the Company held by Shareholder as set forth on Exhibit A (the “Shares”), to be held in escrow by the Escrow Agent, subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement;

 

WHEREAS, the Escrow Agent is willing to act as escrow agent on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement;

 

WHEREAS, the Company and the Shareholders desire that the Escrow Agent accept the Shares, in escrow, to be held and disbursed as hereinafter provided;

 

WHEREAS, the Company has agreed to issue to the Shareholders warrants to purchase common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $6.11 per share of common stock; and

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1. Designation of Escrow Agent; Delivery of Certificates. The Company and the Shareholders hereby appoint the Escrow Agent to act in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to act in accordance with and subject to such terms. Concurrent with the execution of this Agreement, the Shareholders shall deliver to the Escrow Agent the certificates representing the Shares, duly endorsed in blank for transfer, or accompanied by duly executed stock powers in blank in the form attached as Exhibit B. The Shares shall be held by the Escrow Agent in trust, and shall not be subject to any lien, attachment, trustee process or any other judicial process of any creditor of any party hereto.

 

2. Escrow Period; Escrow Account; Disbursement of Funds.

 

(a) Escrow Period. The Escrow Agent shall hold the Shares during the period (the “Escrow Period”) commencing on the date hereof and ending on the date that the Escrow Agent is no longer holding any Shares and all funds have been disbursed from the Escrow Fund.

 

(b) Sale of Shares. If one or more potential purchasers (a “Purchaser”) offer to purchase some or all of the Shares, the Company will have the option to approve or decline the sale of the Shares on the terms proposed by the Purchaser. For any sales of Shares approved by the Company (each, an “Approved Sale”), the Company will submit written instructions to the Escrow Agent describing the number of Shares to be sold in the Approved Sale (the “Sold Shares”) and the aggregate purchase price for the Sold Shares (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchaser or Purchaser in the Approved Sale will then pay to the Escrow Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Escrow Agent, the Purchase Price. Upon receipt of the Purchase Price, the Escrow Agent will release the Sold Shares to the Purchaser or Purchaser and execute such certificates or stock powers and take any other actions that Escrow Agent deems necessary to effect the transfer of the Sold Shares to the Purchaser or Purchasers.

 

 

(c) Disbursement of Funds. Promptly after consummating any Approved Sale, the Escrow Agent will disburse the Purchase Price as follows: (i) 25% of the Purchase Price will be disbursed to the Shareholders in proportion to their percentage ownership of the Sold Shares and (ii) 75% of the Purchase Price will be disbursed to the Company. The Company agrees to use funds disbursed from the Escrow Agreement pursuant to this Agreement to first repay any amounts outstanding under that certain Loan Agreement dated December 31, 2014 by and between Titan El Toro, LLC, Titan CNG LLC, and Tradition Capital Bank.

 

3. Agreement to Issue Warrants. The Company hereby agrees to issue to each Shareholder a warrant (“Warrant”) to purchase a number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to the number of Shares placed in escrow by such Shareholder hereunder at an exercise price of $6.11 per share. The form of Warrant is attached hereto as Exhibit C.

 

4. Representations and Warranties of the Shareholders. Each Shareholder represents and warrants (such representations and warranties being deemed repeated at any closing at which Shares of such Shareholder are purchased) that:

 

(a) Ownership of Shares. Such Shareholder is the record owner of the number of Shares listed opposite his name on Schedule A hereto; except as set forth on Schedule B hereto, such Shareholder does not own beneficially or of record any other capital stock of the Company; such Shares are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, with no personal liability attaching to the ownership thereof; and such Shares are owned by such Shareholder free and clear of any pledges, liens, security interests, adverse claims, assessments, options, equities, charges or encumbrances with respect to the ownership of or right to vote or dispose of such Shares.

 

(b) Transfer of Title. The sale by such Shareholder of his Shares and the completion by the Escrow Agent of stock powers or the duly endorsed certificates representing such Shares to a Purchaser or Purchasers pursuant hereto will transfer to the Purchaser or Purchasers good and valid title to such Shares free and clear of all pledges, liens, security interests, adverse claims, assessments, options, equities, charges and encumbrances whatsoever, and with no proxies or restrictions on the voting rights or other incident of record or beneficial ownership pertaining thereto.

 

(c) Authority; Due Execution; Enforceability. Such Shareholder has the full right, power, capacity and authority to enter into this Agreement; and this Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by such Shareholder and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Shareholder enforceable against him in accordance with its terms.

 

(d) No Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement do not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not, with or without giving of notice or the passage of time, (a) violate any judgment, award, decree, injunction or order of any court, arbitrator or governmental agency applicable to such Shareholder or such Shareholder’s property or assets or any federal or state law, statute or regulation, or (b) conflict with, result in the breach of any provision of or constitute a violation of or default under any agreement or instrument to which such Shareholder is a party or by which such Shareholder or such Shareholder's property or assets may be bound.

 

 

(e) Offering of Warrants. The undersigned acknowledges his, her or its understanding that the offering and sale of the Warrants and underlying shares of common stock is intended to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and the provisions of Regulation D promulgated thereunder (“Regulation D”). In furtherance thereof, the undersigned represents and warrants to the Company and its affiliates as follows:

(iii) The undersigned is an “accredited investor,” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D; and

 

(iv) The undersigned has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Warrants.

 

5. Covenants of the Shareholders. Each Shareholder hereby covenants and agrees that:

 

(a) Bring-Down of Representations. During the term hereof such Shareholder will not enter into any transaction, take any action or by inaction permit any event to occur that would result in any of the representations or warranties of such Shareholder herein contained not being true and correct at and as of (a) the time immediately after the occurrence of such transaction, action or event or (b) the date of any closing of an Approved Sale. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Shareholder covenants and agrees that such Shareholder will not sell, transfer, pledge, assign or otherwise convey or dispose of, or enter into any contract, option, agreement or other arrangement or understanding with respect to the sale, transfer, pledge, assignment, conveyance or other disposition of, any Shares, other than as set forth in this Agreement.

 

(b) Surrender of Shares. Each Shareholder authorizes the Escrow Agent to take the actions contemplated by this Agreement on behalf of the Shareholder and surrenders the certificates representing his Shares to the Escrow Agent to be held in escrow pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Each Shareholder agrees that the Company may instruct the transfer agent for the common stock to place a stop transfer order against any attempt to transfer the Shares except in accordance with this Agreement.

 

 

6. Voting Rights. Except as herein provided, the Shareholders shall retain all of their rights as shareholders of the Company during the term of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the right to vote their Shares.

 

7. Dividends and Other Distributions in Respect of the Escrow Shares. During the term of this Agreement, all dividends payable in cash with respect to the Shares shall be paid to the Shareholders, but all dividends payable in shares or other non-cash property (“Non-Cash Dividends”) shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent to hold in accordance with the terms hereof. As used herein, the term “Shares” shall be deemed to include the Non-Cash Dividends distributed thereon, if any.

 

8. Concerning the Escrow Agent.

 

(a) Good Faith Reliance. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and in the exercise of its own best judgment, and may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by the Escrow Agent), statement, instrument, report or other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of any information therein contained) which is believed by the Escrow Agent in good faith to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Agreement unless evidenced by a writing delivered to the Escrow Agent signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Escrow Agent are affected, unless it shall have given its prior written consent thereto.

 

(b) Indemnification. The Escrow Agent shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from and against any expenses, including counsel fees and disbursements, or loss suffered by the Escrow Agent in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding involving any claim which in any way, directly or indirectly, arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the services of the Escrow Agent hereunder, or the Escrow Shares held by it hereunder, other than expenses or losses arising from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Escrow Agent. Promptly after the receipt by the Escrow Agent of notice of any demand or claim or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, the Escrow Agent shall notify the other parties hereto in writing. In the event of the receipt of such notice, the Escrow Agent, in its sole discretion, may commence an action in the nature of interpleader in an appropriate court to determine ownership or disposition of the Escrow Shares or it may deposit the Escrow Shares with the clerk of any appropriate court or it may retain the Escrow Shares pending receipt of a final, nonappealable order of a court having jurisdiction over all of the parties hereto directing to whom and under what circumstances the Escrow Shares are to be disbursed and delivered. The provisions of this Section 8(b) shall survive in the event the Escrow Agent resigns or is discharged pursuant to Sections 8(e) or 8(f) below.

 

(c) Compensation. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to reasonable compensation from the Company for all services rendered by it hereunder. The Escrow Agent shall also be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses paid or incurred by it in the administration of its duties hereunder including, but not limited to, all counsel, advisors’ and agents’ fees and disbursements and all taxes or other governmental charges.

 

 

(d) Further Assurances. From time to time on and after the date hereof, the Company and the Shareholders shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Escrow Agent such further documents and instruments and shall do or cause to be done such further acts as the Escrow Agent shall reasonably request to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes of this Agreement, to evidence compliance herewith or to assure itself that it is protected in acting hereunder.

 

(e) Resignation. The Escrow Agent may resign at any time and be discharged from its duties as escrow agent hereunder by its giving the other parties hereto written notice and such resignation shall become effective as hereinafter provided. Such resignation shall become effective at such time that the Escrow Agent shall turn over to a successor escrow agent appointed by the Company, the Shares held hereunder. If no new escrow agent is so appointed within the 60 day period following the giving of such notice of resignation, the Escrow Agent may deposit the Escrow Shares with any court it reasonably deems appropriate.

 

(f) Discharge of Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall resign and be discharged from its duties as escrow agent hereunder if so requested in writing at any time by the other parties hereto, jointly, provided, however, that such resignation shall become effective only upon acceptance of appointment by a successor escrow agent as provided in Section 8(e)

 

(g) Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Escrow Agent shall not be relieved from liability hereunder for its own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

9. Survival. All rights and authority granted herein by each Shareholder shall survive the death or incapacity of such Shareholder. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective spouses, heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns.

 

10. Piggy-Back Registration. If at any time on or after April 1, 2018, the Company proposes to file any registration statement (other than any registration on Form S-4, S-8 or any other similarly inappropriate form, or any successor forms thereto) under the Securities Act covering a public offering of the Company’s common stock, including shares underlying the Warrants, it will notify the Shareholders at least ten (10) days prior to each such filing and will use its best efforts to include in such Registration Statement (to the extent permitted by applicable regulation), the Shares to the extent requested by the Shareholder within five (5) days after receipt of notice of such filing (which request shall specify the Shares intended to be sold or disposed of by the Shareholder and describe the nature of any proposed sale or other disposition thereof); provided, however, that if a greater number of shares of the Company’s common stock is offered for participation in the proposed offering than in the reasonable opinion of the managing underwriter (if any) of the proposed offering can be accommodated without adversely affecting the proposed offering, then the amount of Shares proposed to be offered by the Shareholders for registration, as well as the number of securities of any other selling stockholders participating in the registration, will be proportionately reduced to a number deemed satisfactory by the managing underwriter. The Company will bear all expenses and fees incurred in connection with the preparation, filing, and amendment of the registration statement with the SEC, except that each Shareholder shall pay all fees, disbursements and expenses of any counsel or expert retained by that Shareholder and all underwriting discounts and commissions, filing fees and any transfer or other taxes relating to his Shares included in the registration statement. Each Shareholder agrees to cooperate with the Company in the preparation and filing of any registration statement, and in the furnishing of information concerning that Shareholder for inclusion therein, or in any efforts by the Company to establish that the proposed sale is exempt under the Securities Act as to any proposed distribution.

COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

 

Original Issue Date:	[__________]
Warrant Holder:	[__________]
No. of Shares:	[__________] shares of Common Stock

 

This Common Stock Purchase Warrant (this “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, the Warrant Holder named above is entitled to purchase from EVO Transportation & Energy Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), during the period specified in this Warrant, [________] (______) fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (“Warrant Stock”), at the purchase price per share provided in Section 1.2 of this Warrant (the “Warrant Exercise Price”), all subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Warrant. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in Section 5 below.

 

Section 1. Period for Exercise and Exercise Price.

 

1.1 Period for Exercise. The right to purchase shares of Warrant Stock represented by this Warrant may be exercised during the period commencing on the Original Issue Date listed above and expiring on the fifth anniversary of such date (the “Expiration Date”). From and after the Expiration Date this Warrant shall be null and void and of no further force or effect.

 

1.2 Warrant Exercise Price. The Warrant Exercise Price shall be $6.11 per share, subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided.

 

Section 2. Exercise of Warrant.

 

2.1 Manner of Exercise. The Warrant Holder may exercise this Warrant on or after the date hereof, but not later than the Expiration Date, during normal business hours on any business day by surrendering this Warrant to the Company at the principal office of the Company or the principal office of its transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), together with an executed Notice of Exercise attached hereto as Annex A. The Notice of Exercise shall be accompanied by payment of the Warrant Exercise Price for the number of shares of Warrant Stock for which this Warrant is then exercised, by cash or by certified or official bank check.

 

 

2.2 When Exercise Effective. Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected on the day on which all requirements of Section 2.1 shall have been met with respect to such exercise. At such time the Person in whose name any certificate for shares of Warrant Stock shall be issuable upon such exercise shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of such shares, regardless of the actual delivery of certificates evidencing such shares.

 

2.3 Issuance of Stock. As soon as practicable after each exercise of this Warrant, the Company at its expense will cause to be issued via book-entry in the name of the Warrant Holder or as the Warrant Holder may direct, the number of shares of Warrant Stock to which the Warrant Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise.

 

2.4 Partial Exercise. This Warrant may be exercised in part, and the Warrant Holder shall be entitled to receive a new warrant, which shall be dated as of the date of this Warrant, covering the number of shares in respect of which this Warrant shall not have been exercised.

 

2.5 Cashless Exercise. At any time during the period commencing on the Original Issue Date and expiring on the Expiration Date, the Warrant Holder may notify the Company of its election to utilize a cashless exercise with an executed Notice of Exercise attached hereto as Annex A, in which event the Company shall issue to the Warrant Holder the number of shares of Warrant Stock determined as follows:

 

X = Y [(A-B)/A]

 

where:

 

X = the number of shares of Warrant Stock to be issued to the Warrant Holder.

 

Y = the number of shares of Warrant Stock with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised.

 

A = the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of Exercise.

 

B = the Warrant Exercise Price.

 

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the shares of Warrant Stock issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Warrant Holder, and the holding period for the shares of Warrant Stock shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued.

 

Section 3. Warrant Adjustments. Warrant and the Warrant Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events as follows:

 

3.1 Reclassification or Merger. In case of any capital reclassification or reorganization (other than a result of a subdivision, combination or dividend as described below), or in case of any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a merger with another corporation in which the Company is a continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or change of outstanding securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant), or in case of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall execute and deliver to the Warrant Holder a new Warrant (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Warrant Holder) providing that the Warrant Holder shall have the right to exercise such new Warrant and upon such exercise to receive, in lieu of the shares of the Common Stock theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and property receivable upon such reclassification, change or merger had the Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such event. Such new Warrant shall provide for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 3 to pursue the economic benefit intended to be conferred upon the Warrant Holder by this Warrant. The provisions of this Section 3.1 shall similarly apply to any successive reclassification, changes, mergers and transfers.

 

 

3.2 Subdivisions or Combination of Shares. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired, shall subdivide or combine its Common Stock or in the event of any dividend payable on the Common Stock in shares of the Common Stock, the number of shares of the Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise hereof shall be proportionately adjusted and the Warrant Exercise Price shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, so that the aggregate Warrant Exercise Price of this Warrant shall at all times remain unchanged.

 

3.3 Notice of Adjustment Events. Whenever the Company engages in an event which would give rise to adjustments under this Section 3, the Company shall mail to the Warrant Holder, at least ten (10) days prior to the record date with respect to such event or, if no record date shall be established, at least ten (10) days prior to such event, a notice specifying (i) the nature of the contemplated event, and (ii) the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such event, and (iii) the date on which such event is expected to become effective, and (iv) the time, if any is to be fixed, when the holders of record of Common Stock (or other securities) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or other securities) for securities or other property deliverable in connection with such event.

 

3.4 Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Warrant Exercise Price shall be adjusted pursuant to the provisions hereof, the Company shall within thirty (30) days of such adjustment deliver a certificate signed by its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary or Assistant Secretary to the Warrant Holder as the registered holder hereof setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the Warrant Exercise Price after giving effect to such adjustment.

 

Section 4. Ownership, Transfer and Substitution of Warrants.

 

4.1 Transfer and Exchange of Warrants. The Warrant Holder, by acceptance hereof, agrees to give written notice to the Company before transferring this Warrant or transferring any Warrant Stock issuable or issued upon the exercise hereof of such Warrant Holder’s intention to do so, describing briefly the manner of any proposed transfer of this Warrant or such Warrant Holder’s intention as to the disposition to be made of shares of Warrant Stock issuable or issued upon the exercise hereof. For any proposed transfer other than a transfer to an affiliate (as defined by Rule 405 of Regulation C under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) of the Warrant Holder, such Warrant Holder shall also provide the Company with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that the proposed transfer of this Warrant or disposition of shares may be effected without registration or qualification (under any Federal or State law) of this Warrant or the shares of Warrant Stock issuable or issued upon the exercise hereof. Upon receipt by the Company of such written notice and, for transfers to non-affiliates, opinion of counsel, such Warrant Holder shall be entitled to transfer this Warrant, or to exercise this Warrant in accordance with its terms and dispose of the shares received upon such exercise or to dispose of shares of Warrant Stock received upon the previous exercise of this Warrant, all in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered by the Warrant Holder to the Company, provided that an appropriate legend respecting the aforesaid restrictions on transfer and disposition may be endorsed on this Warrant or the certificates for such shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon registration of the Warrant Shares under the Securities Act, no such opinion shall be required.

 

 

4.2 Transfers; Registered Holder as Owner. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.1 hereof, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, at the principal office of the Company by the Warrant Holder hereof in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant properly endorsed. Each taker and holder of this Warrant, by taking or holding the same, consents and agrees that the bearer of this Warrant, when endorsed, may be treated by the Company and all other persons dealing with this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for any purpose and as the person entitled to exercise the rights represented by this Warrant, or to the transfer hereof on the books of the Company, any notice to the contrary notwithstanding; but until such transfer on such books, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the owner for all purposes.
