Entry

Loan
and Security Agreement
On
February 28, 2020, SRAX, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a term loan and security agreement (the “Loan Agreement”)
with BRF Finance Co., LLC, an affiliate of B. Riley Financial, Inc. (“Lender). Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Company
will borrow up to $5,000,000, subject to the conditions contained below (the “Loan”).
The
Loan is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company pursuant to the Loan Agreement and the intellectual property
security agreement (“Security Agreement”) entered into in connection with the transaction.
The
Loan bears interest at ten percent (10%) per annum, and has a maturity date of March 1, 2022 (“Maturity Date”). Beginning
on August 1, 2020, and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter until the Maturity Date, the Company will make monthly
payments of principal and interest on an eighteen (18) month straight line amortization schedule, based on the principal outstanding
on July 31, 2020. Additionally, the Company will have the option of a one (1) time payment-in-kind payment (“PIK Payment”)
for a monthly required payment of principal and interest, which will defer such payments and result in a recalculation of the
amortization schedule. In the event that the Company is late on any payments under the Loan, a late charge of three percent (3%)
of the amount of the payment due will be assessed.
Upon
the Initial Loan, the Company paid Lender: (i) an origination fee of $300,000, (ii) $35,000 in attorneys’ fees reimbursement,
and (iii) certain other costs and expenses associated with the completion of the Loan, including but not limited to escrow fees
and recording fees. Accordingly, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $2,163,800 from the Initial Loan.
The
occurrence of an event of default under the Loan Agreement (“Event of Default”) will accelerate all amounts due under
the Loan. Events of Default include, but are not limited to: (i) failure to make payments on principal or interest due after Lender
providing five (5) days notice, (ii) failure by the Company to timely perform its obligations, or abide by its covenants, or agreements
in the Loan Agreement, subject to applicable cure periods, (ii) certain breaches of representations and warranties, or (iv) the
initiation of bankruptcy proceedings. Upon an Event of Default, the interest rate will be increased by an additional five percent
(5%) on all amounts owed under the Loan.
Under
the Loan: (i) an initial draw of $2,500,000 on February 28, 2020 (the “Initial Loan”) and (ii) the remaining $2,500,000
(“Second Loan”) within (30) days of the Company entering into an at the market sales agreement (“ATM Agreement”)
with the Lender and the filing of an at the market offering on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)
registering the shares to be sold pursuant to the ATM Agreement (the “ATM”). The Company agreed to file the ATM by
May 1, 2020. Additionally, the Company will be required to increase the dollar amount authorized under the ATM each time additional
capacity of at least $1,000,000 is available under federal securities laws.
The
Loan may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time at the discretion of the Company. The Loan also provides for mandatory prepayments
of all of the net cash received upon (i) a sale of the company’ assets, (ii) raising additional capital through the issuance
of equity or debt securities, or (iii) sales under the ATM described above.
Pursuant
to the Loan Agreement, the Company agreed to issue to Lender: (i) 500,000 Common Stock purchase warrants on the date of the Initial
Loan (“Initial Warrant”) and (ii) 500,000 Common Stock purchase warrants on the date of the Second Loan (“Second
Warrant”) (collectively, the “Warrants”). The Warrants have an exercise price equal to a 25% premium of the
closing price of the Common Stock on their respective date of issue (provided that the exercise price of the Warrants cannot be
less than $2.50 per share, subject to adjustment contained therein). The Initial Warrant has an exercise price of $3.60.
The Warrants will expire on October 31, 2022. The Warrants allow for cashless exercise in the event that they are not subject
to a registration statement on the six (6) month anniversary of their respective issuances. The Warrants do not contain any price
protection / anti-dilution provisions.
