女士们、先生们:

 

特此参考(一)截至2023年6月30日生效的某特定交易所订购协议(以下简称“交易协议”,由以下各方之间缔结: 包括其他事项;,Heritage Distilling Holding Company, Inc.,一家特拉华州公司(以下简称“权益代理”)。持有人其他父母公司子公司持有人)与(ii) 当事方于2024年4月3日或前后签署的某封信函协议(“限制条款”)。 在本修订协议(本“修订”)中使用但未加以定义的任何大写字词,将按照交易所协议和信函协议的规定赋予相应涵义。

 

为了对价值良好且有价值的考量,特此确认已收到并充分认可,本公司与持有人谨此同意如下:

 

1.) 首次公开募股 和上市日期为了预期的首次公开募股,公司希望将上市日期更新为2025年2月28日。

 

2.) 修订交易所协议第3项。交易所协议第3项现通过修订并完全重述如下:

 

3. 凭证持有人应被视为已交出该凭证,及自2023年6月30日生效日期起不再累计利息。在执行本协议时,凭证持有人将收取预付认股权证,该认股权证应被视为与本交换认购协议同时执行,以收取本协议应发行的普通股数量(“交换金额”)。截至生效日期应付的交换金额将在公司帐簿上列为“股本增资,待发行股权”,直至认股权证行使或本协议终止。若公司未于2025年2月28日之前在国家或国际证券交易所上市普通股,则凭证持有人有权将认股权证及认股权证行使后发行的任何普通股交换为应约票据(“新票据”),条款大致相同于此处交换的凭证;但应条款允许持有大多数新票据金额的个人或实体代表所有新票据持有人修改新票据及任何相关文件的条款。新票据的本金金额将等于凭证的本金金额(扣除原始发行折扣及发行费用的影响),并利息将被视为在同一天发行新票据时就已累计,如同新票据于该日发行。为避免疑义,新票据下的应计利息将包括应计于生效日期至新票据发行期间之间的利息,如同凭证已在整个该期间保持未偿清。新票据应含有条款允许代表新票据利益大多数的当事方不时对所有新票据及相关文件进行修改。除上述外,凭证转换或交换为公司普通股后仍继续存在的凭证条款可随时由占凭证或转换后公司普通股证券大多数的人或实体投票进行变更或修改。

 

 

 

 

3.) 修正 交易所协议第10条。将「Term」的定义修改为2025年2月28日。修正并全文重新叙述交易所协议第10条如下:

 

直到股票首次公开发行的日期之前,或者2024年2月28日止(“期限”),持有人特此不可撤回地指定并委任Justin Stiefel和Jennifer Stiefel(每人称为“代理人”),或者他们中的任何一人,或者由Justin Stiefel或Jennifer Stiefel中任何一人在书面上签署的指定人,为持有人的真正和合法的代表律师、代理人和代理人,在持有人的名义、位置和代表的地位,有权按照代理人自行和绝对的裁量权,在公司股东会上的任何会议中投票持有人的普通股股份,及其全部续订之会议,以及在公司董事会可能要求或询求持有人同意的或涉及其他情况时,在此情况下持有人特此批准及确认代理人因此而可能执行的一切行为。持有人与代理人一致同意,在未经代理人事先书面同意的情况下,持有人在期间内将不会采取任何行动,涉及持有人就该等普通股份的投票权作出任何行动,任命任何人为持有人的代表律师、代理人或授权代表来行使该等投票权,或者采取任何与指定代理人作为持有人合法代表律师、代理人和代理,或代理人在此授予的权力行使不一致的行动。股东。根据本段(10)​​授予的权力以及根据本书授予的代理权,是与一定利益结合的,并且在期限内不可撤销。尽管前述,代理人不得行使持有人的任何权利和权力,除非根据并依照本段(10)的条款允许为止。除本段(10)明示规定的情况外,本协议中未包含的内容不应被视为授予任何代理人股东的任何直接或间接所有权或所有权之一部分。

 

4.) 杂项费用.

 

(a) 整个协议此修订构成双方就本议题的全部协议和理解,并取代双方之间任何书面或口头提到的先前理解、协议或陈述,只要它们在任何方面与本议题有关。

 

(b) 修正; 放弃本修正条款不得就任何特定条款进行更改、修改或放弃,除非通过公司和根据交易协议发行的公司普通股中持有大部分权益的持有人签署的书面文件。任何一方未行使本条款下的任何权利,不得被视为放弃该权利,也不得阻止任何其他或进一步行使本条款下其他任何权利的行使。

 

(c) 作业; 没有第三方受益人任何一方不得转让本修订条款或其在此下所拥有的任何权利或义务,须经其他各方事先书面同意,任何未经该等同意的旨在转让均为从起始时无效且毫无效力。本修订条款对签署方及其各自的继受人和被许可转让人具有约束力。本修订条款中不含的任何内容,或任何一方就相关交易所涉及的任何工具或文件所签署之内容,均不得为未订立在本条款当事人或其继受人或被许可转让人利益之权利,或不得视为已就未订立在本条款当事人或其继受人或被许可转让人为所执行的任何行为。

(d) Lock Ups/Leak Out as part of IPO. The Holder acknowledges that its Common Stock acquired through the Exchange Agreement may be subject to Lock Up Agreements and / or Leak Out Agreements required during the IPO process, and Holder agrees to execute such Lock Up Agreements and / or Leak Out Agreements as required by the Company or its underwriters as part of the IPO process. Holder understands failure to execute such agreements may delay or hinder Holder’s receipt or transfer of Common Stock through the Company’s selected transfer agent process.

 

(e) Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Amendment shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated hereunder (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced in the state and federal courts sitting in Tacoma, Washington (the “Washington Courts”). Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Washington Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such Washington Courts, or such Washington Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under the Notes and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Amendment or the transactions contemplated hereby. If any party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Amendment, then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its attorney’s fees and other costs and expenses incurred in the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.

 

(f) Interpretation. The titles and subtitles used in this Amendment are for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Amendment. In this Amendment, unless the context otherwise requires: (i) any pronoun used in this Amendment shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns, pronouns and verbs shall include the plural and vice versa; (ii) “including” (and with correlative meaning “include”) means including without limiting the generality of any description preceding or succeeding such term and shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (iii) the words “herein,” “hereto,” and “hereby” and other words of similar import in this Amendment shall be deemed in each case to refer to this Amendment as a whole and not to any particular section or other subdivision of this Amendment; and (iv) the term “or” means “and/or”. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Amendment. Consequently, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Amendment shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Amendment.

(g) Severability. In case any provision in this Amendment shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in a jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified or deleted, as to the jurisdiction involved, only to the extent necessary to render the same valid, legal and enforceable, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby nor shall the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision be affected thereby in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties will substitute for any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision a suitable and equitable provision that carries out, so far as may be valid, legal and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

 

(h) Specific Performance. Each party hereto acknowledges that its obligations under this Amendment are unique, recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach of this Amendment by such party, money damages may be inadequate and the other party or parties may not have adequate remedy at law, and agrees that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Amendment were not performed by such party in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, the parties hereunder shall be entitled to seek an injunction or restraining order to prevent breaches of this Amendment by any other party or parties and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other right or remedy to which such party or parties may be entitled under this Amendment, at law or in equity.

 

(i) Counterparts; Electronic Delivery. This Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts (including by facsimile or pdf or other electronic document transmission), each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. A photocopy, faxed, scanned and/or emailed copy of this Amendment or any signature page to this Amendment, shall have the same validity and enforceability as an originally signed copy.
