Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On December 23, 2020, Pareteum Corporation
(the “Company”) entered into (i) a letter agreement (the “Forbearance Letter Agreement”)
with High Trail Investments SA LLC (“HT”), the holder of that certain Senior Secured Convertible Note due 2025
(the “Note”) issued by the Company on June 8, 2020 and that certain Warrant to Purchase Common Stock, dated
June 8, 2020 (the “Warrant”), issued by the Company and (ii) a letter agreement (the “Control Account
Letter Agreement”) with HT. HT and the Company are also party to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated June
8, 2020 (the “SPA”), under which the Note and the Warrant were originally sold, that certain Deposit Account
Control Agreement, dated as of June 8, 2020 (the “Deposit Account Control Agreement”), related to certain liquidity
obligations of the Company under the Note, and that certain Forbearance Agreement, dated as of December 1, 2020 (the “Forbearance
Agreement”), under which the Company acknowledged certain defaults under the Note and the SPA and HT agreed not pursue
certain remedies against the Company.
Under the terms of the Forbearance Letter
Agreement, HT and the Company agreed that HT would not exercise any right or remedy under the Note, the SPA, the Warrant or
the related security documents, including HT’s right to accelerate the aggregate amount outstanding under the Note, until
the earlier of (i) January 31, 2021, (ii) the date of any new event of default or (iii) the initiation of any action by the Company
to invalidate any of the representations and warranties made in the Forbearance Agreement. This represents an extension of the
term of HT’s agreement to forbear from December 31, 2020.
Under the terms of the Control Account Letter
Agreement, HT and the Company agreed that of the remaining $7 million of the original purchase price for the Note that was maintained
in a blocked account subject to the Deposit Account Control Agreement, $1 million would be released to the Company for its use.
The foregoing descriptions are qualified
in their entirety by the terms of the Forbearance Letter Agreement and the Control Account Letter Agreement, which are incorporated
herein by reference and are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively.
