PROMISSORY NOTE

May 1, 2020

Principal Amount: $405,000

Kaleyra, Inc., f.k.a. GigCapital, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Maker”), promises to pay to the order of Chardan Capital Markets, LLC, or its registered assigns or successors in interest (the “Payee”), or order, the principal sum of up to four hundred and five thousand dollars ($405,000) in lawful money of the United States of America, on the terms and conditions described below from the date hereof (the “Issuance Date”). All payments on this Promissory Note (the “Note”) shall be made by check or wire transfer of immediately available funds or as otherwise determined by the Maker to such account as the Payee may from time to time designate by written notice in accordance with the provisions of this Note.

1.    Principal. The principal balance of this Note shall be payable by the Maker on May 1, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”). Pursuant to the provisions of Section 4 hereof, the unpaid principal balance may be prepaid at any time, at the election of the Maker. Under no circumstances shall any individual, including but not limited to any executive officer, director, employee or stockholder of the Maker, be obligated personally for any obligations or liabilities of the Maker hereunder.

2.    Interest. Subject to the provisions of Sections 4 and 10 hereof, interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this Note at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum from the Issuance Date. Interest shall be payable by the Maker in arrears to the Payee on March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of each year while this Note remains outstanding (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). The first Interest Payment Date shall be June 15, 2020.

3.    Optional Conversion.

(a)     At the option of the Payee, at any time prior to payment in full of the unpaid principal balance of this Note, the Payee may elect to convert all or any portion of the unpaid principal balance of this Note into a number of shares of common stock of the Maker (the “Common Stock”) equal to: (i) the portion of the unpaid principal amount of the Note being converted pursuant to this Section 3, divided by (ii) $7.5700 (the “Conversion Price”).

(b)     Upon any complete or partial conversion of the unpaid principal amount of this Note (i) such unpaid principal amount shall be so converted and such converted portion of this Note shall be deemed to have been fully paid and satisfied, (ii) the Payee shall surrender and deliver this Note, duly endorsed, to the Maker or such other address which the Maker shall designate against delivery of the Common Stock, (iii) the Maker shall promptly deliver a new duly executed Note to the Payee in the principal amount that remains outstanding, if any, after any such conversion and (iv) in exchange for all or any portion of the surrendered Note described in Section 3(a), the Maker shall deliver to Payee, at the option of the Maker: (A) the Common Stock, which shall bear such legends as are required, in the opinion of counsel to the Maker or by any other agreement between the Maker and the Payee and applicable state and federal securities laws, (B) an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered, multiplied by (y) the closing price for the Common Stock on the trading day that notice of conversion was delivered to the Maker (the “Cash Conversion Amount”), or (C) a combination of Common Stock and cash equal to the Cash Conversion Amount. If the date on which the Payee chooses to exercise this right in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 hereof (the “Conversion Date”) occurs on the same day as an Interest Payment Date, the Maker shall also pay the Payee a fee in the amount equal to the interest that would have become due and payable pursuant to Section 2 hereof on the relevant Interest Payment Date.

 

 

1


(c)     Upon exercise of this conversion, the Maker shall promptly (but in no event later than two business days after the Conversion Date), upon the request of the Payee, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Payee is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Payee’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system, or if the Maker’s transfer agent is not participating in the Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program (the “FAST Program”) or if the certificates are required to bear a legend regarding restriction on transferability, issue and dispatch by overnight courier, a certificate, registered in the Maker’s share register in the name of the Payee or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Payee is entitled pursuant to such exercise. The Payee, or any natural person or legal entity permissibly so designated by the Payee to receive the shares of Common Stock, shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares of Common Stock as of the Conversion Date, irrespective of the date such shares of Common Stock are credited to the Payee’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such shares of Common Stock, as the case may be.

(d)     If by the close of the second business day after the Conversion Date, the Maker fails to deliver to the Payee a certificate representing the required number of shares of Common Stock in the manner required pursuant to Section 3(c) hereof or fails to credit the Payee’s balance account with DTC for such number of shares of Common Stock to which the Payee is entitled, and if after such second business day and prior to the receipt of such shares of Common Stock, the Payee purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Payee of shares which the Payee anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Maker shall, within two business days after the Payee’s request and in the Payee’s sole discretion, either (i) pay in cash to the Payee an amount equal to the Payee’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased, at which point the Maker’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) shall terminate or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Payee a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock and pay cash to the Payee in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of Payee’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased in the Buy-In over the product of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock purchased in the Buy-In, times (B) the closing price of a share of Common Stock on the Conversion Date.

(e)     In connection with the conversion of all or any portion of the unpaid principal balance of this Note into Common Stock, neither the Maker nor any person acting on its behalf will take any action which would result in the Common Stock being exchanged by the Maker other than with the Maker’s existing security holders exclusively where no commission or other remuneration is paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting such exchange.

(f)     The Maker shall pay any and all issue and other taxes that may be payable with respect to any issue or delivery of the Common Stock and/or cash upon conversion of this Note pursuant hereto; provided, however, that the Payee shall pay any transfer taxes resulting from any transfer requested by the Payee in connection with any such conversion.

(g)     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Maker shall not effect any conversion of this Note, and the Payee shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note, to the extent that, the Payee (together with the Payee’s affiliates, and any other person whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Payee’s for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the United States Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the applicable regulations of the Commission, including any “group” of which the Payee is a member (the foregoing, the “Attribution Parties”)) would beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Payee and its Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Maker (including any warrants) beneficially owned by the Payee or any of its Attribution Parties that are subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise similar to the limitation contained herein. For purposes of this

Section 3(d), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the Commission. In addition, for purposes hereof, “group” has the meaning set forth in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the applicable regulations of the Commission. For purposes of this Section 3(d), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Payee may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (A) the Maker’s most recent periodic or annual filing with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Maker that is filed with the Commission, or (C) a more recent notice by the Maker or the Maker’s transfer agent to the Payee setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. Upon the written request of the Payee (which may be by email), the Maker shall, within three (3) business days, confirm in writing to the Payee (which may be via email) the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to any actual conversion or exercise of securities of the Maker, including shares of Common Stock, by the Payee or its Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was last publicly reported or confirmed to the Payee. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall initially be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof. The Maker shall be entitled to rely on representations made to it by the Payee regarding its Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

(h)     Notwithstanding the foregoing, by written notice to the Maker, which will not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Maker, the Payee may reset the Beneficial Ownership Limitation percentage to a higher or lower percentage, not to exceed 19.9% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof. Upon such a change by the Payee of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation may not be further amended by the Payee without first providing the minimum notice required by Section 3(e) hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time following notice of a Fundamental Change, the Payee may waive and/or change the Beneficial Ownership Limitation effective immediately upon written notice to the Maker and may reinstitute the Beneficial Ownership Limitation at any time thereafter effective immediately upon written notice to the Maker.

4.    Optional Redemption and Interest Rate Adjustment.

(a)     Optional Redemption. At the option of the Maker, at any time prior to payment in full of the unpaid principal balance of this Note, the Maker may elect to redeem: (i) the unpaid principal balance of this Note, or (ii) a portion thereof, together with any accrued but unpaid interest (the “Redemption Amount”). At least twenty (20) days before the date on which the Maker elects to redeem in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4 (the “Redemption Date”), the Maker shall give the Payee written notice of its intention to exercise this right. On the Redemption Date, the Maker shall repay to the Payee the Redemption Amount.

(b)     Interest Rate Adjustment. Subject to the provisions of Section 10 hereof, in the event that any portion of this Note is redeemed prior to May 1, 2021, all previously paid and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note from the Issuance Date to the Redemption Date shall be recalculated at the time of prepayment as if Section 2 of this Note was amended to replace “five percent (5%)” with “three percent (3%)” and the excess interest shall be deducted from the Redemption Amount. In the event that any portion of this Note is redeemed prior to May 1,2022, all previously paid and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note from the Issuance Date to the Redemption Date shall be recalculated at the time of prepayment as if Section 2 of this Note was amended to replace “five percent (5%)” with “four percent (4%)” and the excess interest shall be deducted from the Redemption Amount.

5.    Application of Payments. All payments shall be applied first to payment in full of any costs incurred in the collection of any sum due under this Note, including (without limitation) reasonable attorney’s fees, then to the payment in full of any late charges, the accrued but unpaid interest and finally to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of this Note.

6.    Reservation of Underlying Shares.

(a)    Reservation. So long as this Note remains outstanding, the Maker covenants and agrees that at all times the Maker shall reserve and keep available for the Payee out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, free from pre-emptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Payee, one hundred percent (100%) of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note (the “Underlying Shares”). Any shares of Common Stock issued to the Payee upon conversion of this Note shall be subject to the provisions of the registration rights agreement, dated May 1, 2020, between the Maker and the Payee, regarding the ownership of Registrable Securities as defined therein.

7.    Fundamental Change. Upon the occurrence of: (i) a Change of Control, (ii) the sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Maker (determined on a consolidated basis) to another person or group or (iii) the approval by the stockholders of the Maker of a plan of liquidation or dissolution or other insolvency event (each event described in (i) to (iii) above, a “Fundamental Change”), the Maker shall repurchase this Note at a price equal to: (i) the principal amount of this Note that remains unpaid plus any accrued but unpaid interest up to the date of repurchase (the “Repurchase Price”) within five (5) days of such Fundamental Change. At least twenty (20) days prior to the relevant Fundamental Change, the Maker shall deliver written notice to the Payee describing in reasonable detail the terms of such Fundamental Change.

For the purposes of this Section 7, a “Change of Control” will occur (i) if any person or group of persons (other than the Maker or the Payee or a person that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Maker or the Payee) becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities possessing the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the Maker, whether through the ownership of capital stock, by contract or otherwise, or (ii) upon the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any person or any group (other than one or more of the Maker’s Subsidiaries) becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting stock of the Maker, measured by voting power rather than number of shares.

8.    Negative Pledge. The Maker will not, and will not permit any other member of the Group to, create, assume or permit to subsist any security interest over any of the Maker’s properties or assets, including, without limitation, the issued share capital of any direct Subsidiary of the Maker, other than a Permitted Security Interest.

For the purposes of this Section 8:

control” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of a person, whether through the ability to exercise voting power, by contract or otherwise. “controlling” and “controlled” have meanings correlative thereto.
