(f) No fraction of a share Payment Securities will be issued by virtue of the Merger, and each former holder of Shares who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Payment Securities (after aggregating all fractional shares of Payment Securities that otherwise would be received by such holder) shall, upon surrender of such holder's Certificate(s), receive from Terra Tech an amount of cash in dollars (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, less the amount of any withholding taxes with respect to the shares represented by such certificate which are required to be withheld with respect thereto, equal to the product of (i) such fraction, multiplied by (ii) the Terra Tech Closing Price; provided, however, that if the fraction of a share that any such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive in the Merger is less than one-half of 1 percent of the total shares of Payment Securities that person is entitled to receive, then the shares of Payment Securities issuable to the such holder in the Merger will be rounded off to the nearest whole share.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.3(a), if any holder of Dissenting Shares shall effectively withdraw or lose (through failure to perfect or otherwise) such holder's dissenters' rights under the Corporations Code, then, as of the later of the Effective Time and the occurrence of such event, such holder's shares shall automatically be converted into and represent only the right to receive the consideration for the Shares, as applicable, set forth in Section 1.2, without interest thereon, upon surrender of the certificate representing such shares.

Section 1.4 Exchange of Certificates.

 

(a) Exchange Procedures. Promptly after the Effective Time, Terra Tech shall mail to each holder of record of a certificate or certificates ("Certificates") that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Shares that were converted into the right to receive Payment Securities or cash in lieu of any fractional shares pursuant to this Agreement, (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for certificates representing shares of Payment Securities. Upon surrender of Certificates for cancellation to Terra Tech together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by Terra Tech (including any required Form W-9 or Form W-8), the holders of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (x) certificates representing the number of whole shares of Payment Securities (after aggregating all Certificates surrendered by such holder) into which such holder is entitled pursuant to this Agreement, less the number of shares of Payment Securities to be deposited in the Escrow Account pursuant to Section 1.5 and (y) a check in the amount of dollars in lieu of fractional shares that such holders have the right to receive pursuant to Section 1.2(f), and the Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Until so surrendered, outstanding Certificates will be deemed from and after the Effective Time, for all corporate purposes, to evidence only the right to receive upon surrender thereof the number of whole shares of Payment Securities to which such holder is entitled pursuant to this Agreement or an amount in cash in lieu of the issuance of any fractional shares. No interest will be paid or accrued on any cash payable in lieu of fractional shares of Payment Securities. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Shares that is not registered in the transfer records of Company, a certificate representing the proper number of shares of Payment Securities and cash payable in lieu of fractional shares may be issued to a transferee if the Certificate representing such Shares is presented to Terra Tech, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and by evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been paid.

 

(b) Distributions With Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the date hereof with respect to Payment Securities with a record date after the Effective Time will be paid to the holders of any unsurrendered Certificates with respect to the shares of Payment Securities represented thereby until the holders of record of such Certificates shall surrender such Certificates. Subject to applicable law, following surrender of any such Certificates, Terra Tech shall deliver to the record holders thereof, without interest, (i) promptly after such surrender, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to the whole shares of Payment Securities represented thereby, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to surrender and a payment date occurring after surrender, payable with respect to such whole shares of Payment Securities.

 

(c) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed prior to the Closing Date, Terra Tech shall issue and pay in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, certificates representing the shares of Payment Securities into which the Shares represented by such Certificates were converted pursuant to this Agreement, cash for fractional shares, if any, as may be required pursuant hereto, and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 1.4(b).

 

 
5
 

 

(d) No Further Ownership Rights in Company Stock. All shares of Payment Securities, cash in lieu of fractional shares of Payment Securities and dividends or other distributions with respect to Payment Securities issued in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Shares, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

 

(e) Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither Terra Tech, Company, the Surviving Corporation nor any party hereto shall be liable to a holder of Shares for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

 

Section 1.5 Escrow Account.

 

(a) Subject to Section 1.5(b), at the Closing, Terra Tech shall deliver, and the Company Shareholders shall be deemed to have received and deposited, (i) a certificate or certificates representing the Lock-Up Shares Amount (not including the aggregate Per-Share Closing Consideration to be issued at Closing, subject only to the restrictions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act) and (ii) the Holdback Shares Amount (collectively, the "Escrow Shares") into a non-interest bearing escrow account (the "Escrow Account") to be established by Terra Tech with an escrow agent to be designated by Terra Tech and approved by the Shareholder Representative prior to the Closing (the "Escrow Agent"), to be held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D, together with such other modifications as shall be required by the Escrow Agent that are reasonably satisfactory to Terra Tech and the Shareholder Representative (the "Escrow Agreement"). Each Company Shareholder shall be deemed to have deposited into the Escrow Account such Company Shareholder's Pro Rata Share of the Escrow Shares. The portion of such Escrow Shares equal to the Lockup Shares Amount shall be released on the Escrow Release Date in accordance with the Escrow Agreement. The portion of such Escrow Shares equal to the Holdback Shares Amount shall provide security for the satisfaction of any Post-Closing Adjustments and any claims for indemnification made under Article 6. Any fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent shall be paid by Terra Tech. The Escrow Shares shall be retained in the Escrow Account until released pursuant to this Section 1.5 or Section 6.3. During the period in which the Escrow Shares are retained in the Escrow Account, they will be held for the benefit of the Company Shareholders (and the Company Shareholders shall be entitled to receive cash dividends on, and vote, such shares of Payment Securities), unless and until and to the extent it has been determined that that Terra Tech or any Terra Tech Indemnified Party is entitled to retain any of the Escrow Shares in respect of any Post-Closing Adjustments or any indemnification claims pursuant to Article 6.

 

(b) Within ten (10) Business Days following the one-year anniversary of the Closing (the "Escrow Release Date"), Terra Tech and the Shareholder Representative shall each instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to take the following actions:

 

(i) The Escrow Agent shall be instructed to retain aggregate (A) Escrow Shares with a value that is equal to the aggregate Post-Closing Adjustments (assuming for this purpose that the Escrow Shares are converted directly or indirectly into Terra Tech Common Stock and valued at the Terra Tech Closing Price) plus (B) Escrow Shares with a value that is equal to the aggregate Outstanding Claims at such time (assuming for this purpose that the Escrow Shares are valued in accordance with Section 6.3(f)), if any (or such lesser amount of Escrow Shares as shall be remaining in the Escrow Account at such time) (collectively, the "Retained Escrow Consideration").

 

 
6
 

 

(ii) With respect to the Escrow Shares, if any, that are in excess of the Retained Escrow Consideration, the Escrow Agent shall be instructed to promptly (and, in any event, no later than two (2) Business Days after delivery of such instructions) deliver all of such Escrow Shares to the Company Shareholders in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares.

 

(c) In the event and to the extent that, after the Escrow Release Date (i) the final determination of the amount of any Outstanding Claim in respect of any Retained Escrow Consideration is resolved against the relevant Terra Tech Indemnified Party(ies) (such amount, a "Company Favorable Outcome") and (ii) the value of the Retained Escrow Consideration (determined in accordance with Section 6.3(f)) exceeds the aggregate finally determined Post-Closing Adjustments and Outstanding Claims at such time, after giving effect to such Company Favorable Outcome (such excess, if any, the "Retained Escrow Excess"), each of Terra Tech and the Shareholder Representative shall promptly instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to forthwith promptly (and, in any event, no later than two (2) Business Days after delivery of such instructions) distribute all of such Retained Escrow Excess to the Company Shareholders in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares.

 

(d) In the event and to the extent that, after the Escrow Release Date (i) the final determination of the amount of any Outstanding Claim in respect of any Retained Escrow Consideration is resolved in favor of the relevant Terra Tech Indemnified Party(ies), each of Terra Tech and the Shareholder Representative shall promptly instruct the Escrow Agent in writing to promptly (and, in any event, no later than two (2) Business Days after delivery of such instructions) deliver Retained Escrow Consideration to such Terra Tech Indemnified Party(ies).

 

Section 1.6 Post-Closing Adjustment Provisions. The number of Payment Securities payable in consideration of the Merger shall be subject to adjustment as follows (the "Post-Closing Adjustments"):

 

(a) No later than five (5) Business Days following the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date, Terra Tech shall prepare and deliver to the Shareholder Representative a statement (the "Adjustment Statement") setting forth its calculations of the Market-Based Clawback Amount and the Performance-Based Clawback Amount, calculated as set forth below. Terra Tech shall make available to the Shareholder Representative all relevant books and records relating to the Adjustment Statement upon reasonable prior request.

 

(b) For purposes of this Section 1.6:

 

(i) The "Market-Based Clawback Amount" shall be determined as follows:

 

(ii) If the Terra Tech Common Stock VWAP on the first anniversary of the Closing Date (the "Anniversary Date") exceeds the Terra Tech Closing Price, the Market-Based Clawback Amount shall mean the number of shares of Terra Tech Common Stock equal to (i) (A) $4,912,000.00 divided by (B) the Terra Tech Closing Price, less (ii) (A) $4,912,000.00 divided by (B) the Terra Tech Common Stock VWAP on the Anniversary Date.

 

 
7
 

 

(iii) If the Terra Tech Common Stock VWAP on the Anniversary Date is less than or equal to the Terra Tech Closing Price, the Market-Based Clawback Amount shall be zero (0) shares.

 

(iv) For the avoidance of doubt, in no event will the Market-Based Clawback Amount exceed 50% of the Holdback Shares Amount.

 

(v) The "Performance-Based Clawback Amount" shall be determined as follows:

 

(vi) The "Lower Threshold" means an amount equal to $11,979,351.00, and the "Upper Threshold" means an amount equal to $16,667,000.00.

 

(vii) If the Surviving Corporation's operating revenues (defined as gross revenues from normal business operations including IVXX sales, as determined consistent with Terra Tech's accounting practices consistently applied) for the twelve-month period following the Closing Date (the "Year 1 Revenue") is less than the Lower Threshold, then the Performance-Based Clawback Amount shall be the number of shares of Payment Securities (determined on an as-converted to Terra Tech Common Stock basis) obtained from a quotient, (A) the numerator of which is equal to the sum of (1) $4,912,000.00, plus (2) the product of 1.5 multiplied by the difference between the Lower Threshold and the Year 1 Revenue, and (B) the denominator of which is the Terra Tech Common Stock VWAP as of the Anniversary Date.

 

(viii) If the Year 1 Revenue is greater than or equal to the Lower Threshold but is less than the Upper Threshold, then the Performance-Based Clawback Amount shall be the number of shares of Payment Securities (determined on an as-converted to Terra Tech Common Stock basis) obtained from a quotient, (A) the numerator of which is equal to the product of 1.053 multiplied by the difference between the Upper Threshold and the Year 1 Revenue, and (B) the denominator of which is the Terra Tech Common Stock VWAP as of the Anniversary Date.

 

(ix) If the Year 1 Revenue is greater than or equal to the Upper Threshold, then the Performance-Based Clawback Amount shall be zero (0) shares.

 

(x) "Clawback Shares Amount" means a number of shares of Payment Securities (determined on an as-converted to Terra Tech Common Stock basis) equal to the sum of the Market-Based Clawback Amount and the Performance-Based Clawback Amount; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Clawback Shares Amount shall not exceed the Holdback Shares Amount. The Clawback Shares Amount shall be allocated as to shares of Terra Tech's Series B Preferred Stock, Series Z Preferred Stock and Series Q Preferred Stock contained in the Holdback Shares Amount on an as-converted to Terra Tech Common Stock basis.

 

 
8
 

 

(c) After Terra Tech delivers an Adjustment Statement pursuant to Section 1.6(a), the Shareholder Representative will notify Terra Tech in writing of any objections to the Adjustment Statement within 45 calendar days after the Shareholder Representative receives the Adjustment Statement. If the Shareholder Representative does not notify Terra Tech of any such objections by the end of that 45-day period, then the Adjustment Statement will be considered final, conclusive and binding upon the Parties at the end of the last day of that 45-day period. If the Shareholder Representative does notify Terra Tech of any such objections by the end of that 45-day period and the Shareholder Representative and Terra Tech are unable to resolve their differences within 30 calendar days after the Shareholder Representative gives Terra Tech notice of the Shareholder Representative's objection, then the Shareholder Representative and Terra Tech will, and will instruct their respective accountants and advisors to, use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such disputed items to their mutual satisfaction. If the Shareholder Representative and Terra Tech are able to resolve such disputed items, then the Adjustment Statement as agreed by the Shareholder Representative and Terra Tech will be considered final, conclusive and binding upon the Parties. If the Shareholder Representative and Terra Tech are unable to resolve any such disputed items within 30 calendar days after receiving such instructions, then the remaining disputed items and the value attributable to them by each of the Shareholder Representative and Terra Tech will be submitted to a recognized accounting firm mutually agreed by Terra Tech and the Representative (the "Arbiter") for resolution, and the Arbiter will be instructed to determine the Adjustment Statement and to deliver its determination to the Shareholder Representative and Terra Tech as soon as possible. The Arbiter will consider only those items and amounts in the Shareholder Representative's and Terra Tech's respective calculations of the items in the Adjustment Statement that are identified as disputed. The Arbiter's determination of the final Adjustment Statement will be based solely on written materials submitted by the Shareholder Representative and Terra Tech (i.e., not on independent review) and on the definitions set forth in, and the operation of this Section 1.6. The determination of the Arbiter will be final, conclusive and binding upon the Parties. Terra Tech will pay the costs of the Arbiter; provided, however, that, if the Arbiter's determination of the Clawback Shares Amount in the Adjustment Statement is closer to the value initially asserted by Terra Tech to the Arbiter, then such costs paid by Terra Tech will be indemnifiable by the Company Shareholders in accordance with Article 6. Each of Terra Tech and the Shareholder Representative will cooperate with and assist the Arbiter in determining the final Adjustment Statement, including by making available and granting reasonable access to books, records and employees.

 

(d) Following the final determination of the Clawback Shares Amount in accordance with this Section 1.6, the Escrow Agent shall release all remaining Escrow Shares from the Escrow Account in accordance with Section 1.5, other than the finally determined Clawback Shares Amount and any Retained Escrow Consideration that is the subject of a then-Outstanding Claim.

 

Section 1.7 Tax Consequences and Withholding.

 

(a) Consequences. It is intended by the parties hereto that the Merger shall constitute a "reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(a)(i)(A) of the Code and that the exchange of Shares for the Payment Securities pursuant to Section 1.2 shall be treated as an exchange described in Section 354(a) of the Code. The parties hereto shall comply with all tax filing requirements under Sections 368 and 354 of the Code and shall not make any tax filing that is inconsistent with the foregoing intent. The parties hereto adopt this Agreement as a "plan of reorganization" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-2(g) and Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-3(a).

(b) Withholding. Each of Terra Tech and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement to any former Company Shareholder such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under the Code or under any provision of state, local or foreign tax law or under any other applicable law. To the extent such amounts are so deducted and withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Shareholder in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made.

(a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, no Terra Tech Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover any Damages pursuant to the indemnification obligations set forth in Section 6.1 hereof unless and until the Shareholder Representative receives a written notice (a "Notice of Claim") of a claim for indemnification hereunder (an "Indemnification Claim") (with a copy to the Escrow Agent) stating, to the then-current knowledge of Terra Tech, (i) that a Terra Tech Indemnified Party has actually suffered or incurred Damages for which such Terra Tech Indemnified Party believes in good faith that it may be entitled to indemnification under Section 6.1, or believes in good faith that a Terra Tech Indemnified Party could suffer or incur Damages for which such Terra Tech Indemnified Party believes in good faith that it may be entitled to indemnification under Section 6.1, (ii) to the extent then known by the Terra Tech Indemnified Party, a brief description, in reasonable detail, of the facts, circumstances or events giving rise to the Indemnification Claim (and the Damages, to the extent known, forming the basis of such Indemnification Claim), including to the extent then known by the Terra Tech Indemnified Party the identity and address of any third-party claimant and copies of any formal demand or complaint, and (iii) the representation, warranty or covenant of this Agreement that may form the basis of such Indemnification Claim under Section 6.1.

(b) After receipt of a Notice of Claim, the Shareholder Representative shall have thirty (30) Business Days following her receipt of the Notice of Claim in which to deliver notice of objection to such claim to the Terra Tech Indemnified Party and the Escrow Agent. If no objection notice is given within such 30-Business Day period, then the Indemnification Claim set forth in the related Notice of Claim shall be deemed to be valid and indemnifiable pursuant hereto, whereupon the Escrow Agent shall deliver to such Terra Tech Indemnified Parties (as allocated from the Holdback Shares then remaining in the Escrow Account) Escrow Shares equal in value to the amount of the Indemnification Claim set forth in the Resolved Claim Notice. In the event that the Shareholder Representative shall deliver written objection to any Indemnification Claim set forth in a Notice of Claim within the foregoing 30-Business Day period, then no Terra Tech Indemnified Party shall be entitled to any indemnification payment and release of Holdback Shares in respect thereof unless and until such Indemnification Claim is finally resolved by mutual agreement, court order or settlement. In the event that a Terra Tech Indemnified Party and the Shareholder Representative shall mutually agree to resolve a disputed Indemnification Claim in favor of the Terra Tech Indemnified Parties (or any of them), then the applicable Terra Tech Indemnified Parties and the Shareholder Representative shall provide joint written notice (the "Resolved Claim Notice") of such offset to the Escrow Agent, whereupon the Escrow Agent shall deliver to such Terra Tech Indemnified Parties (as allocated from the Holdback Shares then remaining in the Escrow Account, Holdback Shares equal in value to the amount of the Indemnification Claim set forth in the Resolved Claim Notice.

(c) If Holdback Shares have been distributed to Company Shareholders following the Escrow Release Date and the Company Shareholders are required to provide indemnification pursuant to this Article 6, then each Company Shareholder shall, at the option of Terra Tech, either (i) surrender to the applicable Terra Tech Indemnified Party its Pro Rata Share of that number of Holdback Shares equal in value to the amount of a finally resolved Indemnification Claim in accordance with Section 6.3(b), or (ii) satisfy the indemnification obligation in cash, but only if the distributed Holdback Shares are then capable of being sold into the public market for cash without restriction.

 

(d) In the event Terra Tech and the Shareholder Representative shall have instructed the Escrow Agent to deliver any Holdback Shares to a Terra Tech Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 6.3, such Holdback Shares shall be allocated by the Escrow Agent among the Holdback Shares of the Company Shareholders in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares.

 

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of return of Holdback Shares (either before or after their release from the Escrow Fund), each Company Shareholder may, in his or her sole discretion, satisfy any indemnification obligation hereunder in cash rather than by surrender of Holdback Shares under this Article 6.

 

(f) In determining the number of Holdback Shares or other Payment Securities "equal in value to the amount of the Indemnification Claim" to be delivered to a Terra Tech Indemnified Party in satisfaction of an Indemnification Claim under this Article 6, each of the Holdback Shares or other Payment Securities shall be valued as follows:

 

(i) Prior to the distribution of the Holdback Shares to the Company Shareholders: (i) each share of Terra Tech Common Stock shall be deemed to have value equal to the Terra Tech Closing Price, and (ii) each share of Terra Tech's Series B Preferred Stock, Series Q Preferred Stock, and Series Z Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have value equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Terra Tech Common Stock into which such Payment Securities are then convertible (either directly or indirectly), multiplied by (y) the Terra Tech Closing Price.

 

(ii) Following the distribution of the Holdback Shares to the Company Shareholders after the Escrow Release Date: (i) each share of Terra Tech Common Stock shall be deemed to have value equal to the greater of (A) the Terra Tech Closing Price, and (B) the VWAP of the Terra Tech Common Stock as of the date the amount required to be paid in satisfaction of the Indemnification Claim is finally determined, and (ii) each share of Terra Tech's Series B Preferred Stock, Series Q Preferred Stock, and Series Z Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have value equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Terra Tech Common Stock into which such Payment Securities are then convertible (either directly or indirectly), multiplied by (y) the greater of (A) the Terra Tech Closing Price, and (B) the VWAP of the Terra Tech Common Stock as of the date the amount required to be paid in satisfaction of the Indemnification Claim is finally determined.

In the event any Terra Tech Indemnified Party becomes aware of a claim made by any third-party claimant against the Terra Tech Indemnified Party (a "Third-Party Claim"), which such Terra Tech Indemnified Party reasonably believes may result in a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article 6, such Terra Tech Indemnified Party shall notify the Shareholder Representative of such claim, and the Shareholder Representative (on behalf of the Company Shareholders) shall be entitled, at the expense of the Company Shareholders (to be borne proportionally according to their respective Pro Rata Shares), to participate in, but not to determine or conduct, the defense of such Third-Party Claim. The Terra Tech Indemnified Party shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of, and to settle, any such claim; provided, however, that, except with the consent of the Shareholder Representative, no settlement of any such Third-Party Claim with third-party claimants shall be determinative of the amount of Damages relating to such matter.

 

Section 6.5 Adjustment to Purchase Price. To the extent permitted by Law, any indemnification payment made pursuant to this Article 6 will be treated as an adjustment to the Merger consideration.

 

Section 6.6 Several Obligations. For purposes of this Agreement, the liability of the Company Shareholders with respect to Losses shall be deemed to be allocated and borne pro rata based on their respective Pro Rata Shares.

 

Section 6.7 Shareholder Representative.

 

(a) The Shareholder Representative shall have the exclusive authority to give and receive notices and communications pursuant to the terms of this Article 6 solely with respect to indemnification claims by the Terra Tech Indemnified Parties to be satisfied solely by the delivery of Holdback Shares to the Terra Tech Indemnified Parties, to authorize delivery to the Terra Tech Indemnified Parties of the Holdback Shares in satisfaction of indemnification claims by the Terra Tech Indemnified Parties as contemplated by Section 6.3, to object to such deliveries, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and take legal actions and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to indemnification claims by the Terra Tech Indemnified Parties that will or may be paid or otherwise satisfied solely by the delivery of Holdback Shares, and to take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Shareholder Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing. No bond shall be required of the Shareholder Representative, and the Shareholder Representative shall receive no compensation for services rendered. Notices or communications to or from the Shareholder Representative shall constitute notice to or from each of the Company Shareholders solely with respect to indemnification claims by the Terra Tech Indemnified Parties to be satisfied solely by the delivery of Holdback Shares to the applicable Terra Tech Indemnified Parties.

 

(b) The Shareholder Representative shall not be liable for any act done or omitted hereunder in her capacity as Shareholder Representative, except to the extent she has acted with willful misconduct, and any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence that she did not act with gross negligence or willful misconduct. The other Shareholders shall severally and not jointly indemnify the Shareholder Representative and hold her harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred in good faith on the part of the Shareholder Representative and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the duties hereunder, including any out-of-pocket costs and expenses and legal fees and other legal costs reasonably incurred by the Shareholder Representative ("Outstanding Shareholder Representative Expenses"). If not paid directly to the Shareholder Representative by the Company Shareholders, such losses, liabilities or expenses may be recovered by the Shareholder Representative from the Escrow Shares (if any) that otherwise would be distributed to the Company Shareholders hereunder, and such recovery (if any) of Outstanding Shareholder Representative Expenses from such Escrow Shares will be made from the Company Shareholders according to their respective Pro Rata Shares.

 

 
34
 

 

(c) A decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholder Representative shall constitute a decision of all the Company Shareholders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each of the Company Shareholders, and the Escrow Agent and Terra Tech may rely upon any decision, act, consent or instruction of the Shareholder Representative as being the decision, act, consent or instruction of each of the Company Shareholders.

 

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Shareholder Representative will not take any action required or authorized under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Miguel Rodriguez acting on behalf of the Management Group (the "Management Group Representative"), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, denied, or conditioned. The Management Group Representative may be replaced at any time by the affirmative written consent of holders of a majority of the Shares held by the Management Group (measured as of immediately prior to the Closing). In the event the Shareholder Representative and the Management Group Representative are unable to agree on an action required or permitted to be taken by the Shareholder Representative hereunder, such matter will be decided by written consent of holders of a majority of the Shares held by all Company Shareholders (measured as of immediately prior to Closing), or their respective heirs and assigns, and such decision shall be binding on all Company Shareholders. In the event of a deadlock after all Company Shareholders vote, the matter under consideration will be decided pursuant to the disputes resolution procedure set forth in Section 6.7(e) immediately below.

 

(e) The exclusive method for resolving any and all disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Section 6.7, shall be final and binding arbitration before JAMS, or its successors. Either the Shareholder Representative of the Management Group Representative may commence the arbitration process called for in this Section 6.7 by filing a written demand for arbitration with JAMS, with a copy to all of the Company Shareholders. Notwithstanding the amount or issue in dispute, the arbitration will administered in accordance with the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the "Rules") in effect at the time of filing of the demand for arbitration, and conducted at a location determined by the arbitrator within Alameda County, California. The arbitrator shall be a retired judge with significant experience resolving commercial disputes. The arbitrator's fees in connection with any such arbitration proceeding shall initially be shared equally among the Company Shareholders, subject to any reallocation in accordance with the arbitrator's decision. The arbitrator will also have the authority to award reimbursement of reasonable attorney's fees to the prevailing party to be shared by one or both of the other parties as determined by the arbitrator. In light of the parties' desire to proceed informally, expeditiously and at minimal expense, the parties agree to waive all discovery and any oral hearing and to submit all disputes to the arbitrator based solely upon written submissions. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive and procedural laws of the State of California, without regard to the conflicts of law principles of such state. The arbitrator's decision and award shall be rendered in writing with counterpart copies to all parties. Judgment upon an arbitration may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction thereof, and shall be binding, final and non-appealable. In the event of any conflict between this Section 6.7(e) and the Rules, this Section 6.7(e) shall govern and control. For the avoidance of doubt, the arbitration procedure in this Section 6.7(e) shall only apply to disputes among Company Shareholders with respect to this Section 6.7, and any other disputes under this Agreement may be resolved in any court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with Section 11.6

 

 
35
 

 

Section 6.8 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties of Company in this Agreement (as qualified by the Company Disclosure Schedule) shall survive for a period of two (2) years following the Closing Date; provided, however, that the representations and warranties contained in Section 2.1, Section 2.2, Section 2.3, Section 2.4, and Section 2.5 shall survive for three (3) years.

COMPANY DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE

 

TO AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

 

December 23, 2015

 

This Company Disclosure Schedule sets forth the disclosures and exceptions of Black Oak Gallery, a California corporation ("Company"), to various sections of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Agreement"), dated as of December 23, 2015, by and among Terra Tech Corp., a Nevada corporation ("Terra Tech"), Generic Merger Sub, Inc., a California corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Terra Tech (the "Merger Sub"), the Company, and, with respect to Article 7 and Article 11 of the Merger Agreement only, Salwa Ibrahim, as representative of the Company Shareholders (the "Shareholder Representative"). This Company Disclosure Schedule is qualified in its entirety by reference to specific provisions of the Merger Agreement, and it is not intended to constitute, and shall not be construed as constituting, representations and warranties of Company except as and to the extent provided in the Merger Agreement. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meaning given to them in the Merger Agreement.

 

No reference to or disclosure of any item or other matter in this Company Disclosure Schedule shall be construed as an admission or indication that such item or other matter is material or that such item or other matter is required to be referred to or disclosed in this Company Disclosure Schedule, and no disclosure in this Company Disclosure Schedule relating to any possible breach or violation of any agreement, law or regulation shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred.

 

Each disclosure in this Company Disclosure Schedule specifies the section or subsection of the Merger Agreement to which it applies and shall also be deemed to qualify other sections or subsections in Article 2 of the Merger Agreement to the extent applicability of such disclosure to such other sections and subsections is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure. Nothing in this Company Disclosure Schedule is intended to broaden the scope of any representation, warranty or covenant of Company contained in the Merger Agreement. Where the terms of an action or other item have been summarized or described in this Company Disclosure Schedule, such summary or description does not purport to be a complete statement of the material terms of such action or other item and Company makes no representation or warranty as to the foregoing.

 

Section 2.1 – Organization and Qualification

 

Reference is made to the disclosures made under Section 2.5 below.

 

Company's business, as contemplated to be conducted (which is contemplated to be in the Ordinary Course of Business), will require compliance with the New California Laws, securing annually the Oakland Permit, and obtaining the Oakland Consent (all as defined below in Section 2.5).

 

 
46
 

 

Section 2.3 – Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws

 

Company has made available copies of its minute book to Terra Tech. The original minute book is being held by the Company President.

 

Section 2.5 – No Violation

 

Company is in the business of owning and operating a medical cannabis dispensary in the City of Oakland, California, and accordingly is subject to regulation under City of Oakland ordinances, as well as State of California and United States Federal Law. Cannabis is a Schedule I controlled substance under the United States Controlled Substances Act and accordingly, the manufacture, distribution, or possession of cannabis is a federal criminal offense.

 

In addition, the operation of a medical cannabis dispensary in Oakland requires a medical cannabis permit under applicable City of Oakland ordinances (the "Oakland Permit"). Company's Oakland Permit subjects Company to a number of ongoing operational requirements, the text of which is incorporated herein by reference. Such requirements include, without limitation, requirements regarding local ownership, makeup of the dispensary's board, and requirements regarding the composition and compensation of dispensary employees. The Oakland Permit is currently issued to Oakland Community Collective (a predecessor name of Company), and Salwa Ibrahim and Derek Peterson are the only individuals named on the Oakland Permit. The Oakland Permit must be renewed annually and is subject to an administrative review process, including a public hearing.

 

Company is required under the terms of its Oakland Permit to submit audited financial statements to the City of Oakland; however, the City of Oakland has in the past renewed such Permit without requesting such audited financial statements.

 

Company intends to request and will ask to receive prior to Closing a letter from an authorized City of Oakland administrator consenting to the transactions contemplated by the Merger (the "Oakland Consent"). Although Company will use its reasonable efforts to obtain the Oakland Consent, there can be no assurance that the City of Oakland will ultimately grant the Oakland Consent.

 

In addition to the Oakland Permit, Company is required to maintain a standard business license in the City of Oakland.

 

In September 2015, the California state legislature passed, and the governor signed into law, several amendments to California statute known as Assembly Bill 266 and Senate Bill 643 pertaining to the regulation of medical cannabis in the State of California (the "New California Laws"). The New California Laws are expected to contain numerous requirements applicable to Company once regulations authorized by the New California Laws are enacted by the relevant State of California regulatory authorities. Company will likely be required to obtain licenses and permits and adjust its business practices to comply with the New California Laws and regulations promulgated thereunder.

 

 
47
 

 

Section 2.6 – Capitalization and Related Matters

 

Company entered into an Option Agreement for Purchase of Shares of Oakland Community Collective, Inc. (the "Option"), executed October 1, 2012, with Boss Investments, LLC, which was misnamed in the Option Agreement as Boss Investments, Inc. ("Boss").
