This Offering is limited to persons who are “accredited investors,” as that term is defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Act”), and who have the financial means and the business, financial and investment experience and acumen to conduct an investigation as to, and to evaluate, the merits and risks of this investment.

Such reports are publicly available on ▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇ and Purchaser has had an opportunity to review such filings in connection with Purchaser’s decision to invest in the Securities. Purchaser has had full access to all the information which Purchaser (or Purchaser’s legal and or financial advisors) consider necessary or appropriate to make an informed decision with respect to Purchaser’s investment in the Securities. Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has made available to Purchaser and Purchaser’s advisors the opportunity to examine and copy any contract, matter or information which Purchaser considers relevant or appropriate in connection with this investment and to ask questions and receive answers relating to any such matters including, without limitation, the financial condition, management, employees, business, obligation, corporate books and records, budgets, business plans of and other matters relevant to the Company. To the extent Purchaser has not sought information regarding any particular matter, Purchaser represents that he or she had and has no interest in doing so and that such matters are not material to Purchaser in connection with this investment. Purchaser has accepted the responsibility for conducting Purchaser’s own investigation, due diligence and obtaining for itself such information as to the foregoing and all other subjects as Purchaser deems relevant or appropriate in connection with this investment. Purchaser is not relying on any representation other than that contained herein. Purchaser acknowledges that no representation regarding projected financial performance or a projected rate of return has been made to it by any party.

 

 

4.4            Restricted Securities. Purchaser understands that the offering of the Securities has not been registered under the Act, in reliance on an exemption for private offerings provided pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Regulation D promulgated under the Act and that, as a result, the Securities and the Underlying Shares will be “restricted securities” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Act. Purchaser further understands that the Offering of the Securities has not been qualified or registered under any foreign or state securities laws in reliance upon the representations made and information furnished by Purchaser herein and any other documents delivered by Purchaser in connection with this subscription; that the Offering has not been reviewed by the SEC or by any foreign or state securities authorities; that Purchaser’s rights to transfer the Securities will be restricted, which includes restrictions against transfers unless the transfer is not in violation of the Act and applicable state securities laws (including investor suitability standards); and that the Company may in its sole discretion require Purchaser to provide at Purchaser’s own expense an opinion of its counsel to the effect that any proposed transfer is not in violation of the Act or any state securities laws.

Purchaser is empowered and duly authorized to enter into this Agreement, which constitutes a valid and binding agreement of Purchaser, enforceable against Purchaser in accordance with its terms; and the person signing this Agreement on behalf of Purchaser is empowered and duly authorized to do so.

 

4.6            Limited Liquidity. Purchaser acknowledges that, while the Common Stock is publicly traded on the OTCQB, there is limited trading volume with respect to the Common Stock and, as such, it may be difficult for Purchaser to sell or dispose of the Underlying Shares if and when Purchaser converts its Note or exercises its Warrants. Purchaser hereby represents that it is able to bear the risk of illiquidity and the risk of a complete loss of this investment.

 

4.7            Investor Questionnaire. The information in any documents delivered by Purchaser in connection with this subscription, including, but not limited to the Accredited Investor Questionnaire attached as Exhibit D, is true, correct and complete in all respects as of the date hereof.

4.9            Risk Factors. Purchaser recognizes that an investment in the Securities involves significant risks, including, without limitation, the Risk Factors set forth herein as Exhibit G. Purchaser has read and understands such risks and understands that such risks, and others, can result in the loss of Purchaser’s entire investment in the Securities.

 

  

4.10         Acquiring for Investment Purposes. Purchaser is acquiring the Securities, as principal, for Purchaser’s own account for investment purposes only, and not with a present intention toward or for the resale, distribution or fractionalization thereof, and no other person has a beneficial interest in the Securities.

Other than consummating the transactions contemplated hereunder, such Purchaser has not directly or indirectly, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Purchaser, executed any purchases or sales, including Short Sales, of the securities of the Company during the period commencing from the time that such Purchaser first received a term sheet (written or oral) from the Company or any other Person representing the Company setting forth the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder until the date hereof (“Discussion Time”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the representation set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Securities covered by this Agreement. Other than to other Persons party to this Agreement, such Purchaser has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction).

7.      OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

 

7.1           Transfer Restrictions. The Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144, to the Company or to an Affiliate of a Purchaser, the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights and obligations of a Purchaser under this Agreement.

 

  

The Purchasers agree to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 7.1, of a legend on any of the Securities in substantially the following form:

 

NEITHER] THIS SECURITY [NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS SECURITY IS [EXERCISABLE] [CONVERTIBLE]] HAS [NOT] BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY. THIS SECURITY [AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON [EXERCISE] [CONVERSION] OF THIS SECURITY] MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.

 

The Company acknowledges and agrees that a Purchaser may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and who agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, such Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further, no notice shall be required of such pledge. At the appropriate Purchaser’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Securities.

 

Certificates evidencing the Underlying Shares shall not contain any legend: (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144, (iii) if such Underlying Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144 or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder. If all or any portion of a Note is converted or Warrant is exercised at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the Underlying Shares, or if such Underlying Shares may be sold under Rule 144 or if such legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) then such Underlying Shares shall be issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that following such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 7.1, it will, no later than three (3) Trading Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate representing Underlying Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend (such third Trading Day, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends, in addition, the Company shall deliver such Purchaser a copy of such opinion, the instruction letter to the Transfer Agent, the resolution of the Board of Directors authorizing the Transaction Documents and any additional supporting documentation requested by the Purchaser as may be requested by the Purchaser in order to deposit Underlying Shares in accounts with its prime broker (or other brokerage account); provided, however, in the event the restrictive legend on such certificate is being removed pursuant to Rule 144 or such Underlying Shares as first being issued without legend in reliance on Rule 144, such Purchaser shall, at the time of delivery of such certificates to the Company or Transfer Agent, represent to the Company and Company Counsel that (i) it intends to sell such Underlying Shares prior to the filing date of the Company’s next period report and (ii) if such Underlying Shares are not sold by such filing date and such Underlying Shares are no longer eligible for resale under Rule 144 such Purchaser will deliver such shares to the Transfer Agent or Company to have the restrictive legend placed back on such certificates representing such Underlying Shares. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 7.1. Certificates for Underlying Shares subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Purchaser by crediting the account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by such Purchaser.

 

  

7.2          Furnishing of Information; Public Information.

 

 (a)                Until the earliest of the time that no Purchaser owns Securities, the Company covenants to obtain and maintain the registration of the Common Stock under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act even if the Company is not then subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.

 

 (b)               At any time during the period commencing from the six (6) month anniversary of the date hereof and ending at such time that no Purchaser shall hold any Underlying Shares, if the Company shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c) (a “Public Information Failure”) then, in addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Securities, an amount in cash equal to two percent (2.0%) of the aggregate Subscription Amount of such Purchaser’s Securities on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every thirtieth (30th) day (pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) thereafter until the earlier of (a) the date such Public Information Failure is cured and (b) such time that no Purchaser shall hold any Underlying Shares. The payments to which a Purchaser shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 7.2(b) are referred to herein as “Public Information Failure Payments.” Public Information Failure Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (i) three (3) Business Days after the last day of the calendar month during which such Public Information Failure Payments are incurred and (ii) the third (3rd) Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Public Information Failure Payments is cured. In the event the Company fails to make Public Information Failure Payments in a timely manner, such Public Information Failure Payments shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full. Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Public Information Failure, and such Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.

 

7.3          Conversion and Exercise Procedures. Each of the form of Notice of Exercise included in the Warrants and the form of Notice of Conversion included in the Notes set forth the totality of the procedures required of the Purchasers in order to exercise the Warrants or convert the Notes. Without limiting the preceding sentences, no ink-original Notice of Exercise or Notice of Conversion shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise or Notice of Conversion form be required in order to exercise the Warrants or convert the Note. No additional legal opinion, other information or instructions shall be required of the Purchasers to exercise their Warrants or convert their Notes. The Company shall honor exercises of the Warrants and conversions of the Notes and shall deliver Underlying Shares in accordance with the terms, conditions and time periods set forth in the Transaction Documents.

 

 

7.4          Participation in Future Financing.

 

 (a)                From the date hereof until the date that is the 12 month anniversary of the Closing Date, upon any issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents for cash consideration, Indebtedness or a combination thereof (a “Subsequent Financing”), each Purchaser shall have the right to participate in up to an amount of the Subsequent Financing equal to 50% of the Subsequent Financing (the “Participation Maximum”) on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the Subsequent Financing.

 

 (b)               At least five (5) Trading Days prior to the closing of the Subsequent Financing, the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser a written notice of its intention to effect a Subsequent Financing (“Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice shall ask such Purchaser if it wants to review the details of such financing (such additional notice, a “Subsequent Financing Notice”). Upon the request of a Purchaser, and only upon a request by such Purchaser, for a Subsequent Financing Notice, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1) Trading Day after such request, deliver a Subsequent Financing Notice to such Purchaser. The Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of proceeds intended to be raised thereunder and the Person or Persons through or with whom such Subsequent Financing is proposed to be effected and shall include a term sheet or similar document relating thereto as an attachment.

 

 (c)                Any Purchaser desiring to participate in such Subsequent Financing must provide written notice to the Company by not later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Trading Day after all of the Purchasers have received the Pre-Notice that such Purchaser is willing to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the amount of such Purchaser’s participation, and representing and warranting that such Purchaser has such funds ready, willing, and available for investment on the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice. If the Company receives no such notice from a Purchaser as of such fifth (5th) Trading Day, such Purchaser shall be deemed to have notified the Company that it does not elect to participate.

 

(d)               If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th ) Trading Day after all of the Purchasers have received the Pre-Notice, notifications by the Purchasers of their willingness to participate in the Subsequent Financing (or to cause their designees to participate) is, in the aggregate, less than the total amount of the Subsequent Financing, then the Company may effect the remaining portion of such Subsequent Financing on the terms and with the Persons set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice.

 

  

(e)                If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Trading Day after all of the Purchasers have received the Pre-Notice, the Company receives responses to a Subsequent Financing Notice from Purchasers seeking to purchase more than the aggregate amount of the Participation Maximum, each such Purchaser shall have the right to purchase its Pro Rata Portion (as defined below) of the Participation Maximum. “Pro Rata Portion” means the ratio of (x) the Subscription Amount of Securities purchased on the Closing Date by a Purchaser participating under this Section 7.4 and (y) the sum of the aggregate Subscription Amounts of Securities purchased on the Closing Date by all Purchasers participating under this Section 7.4.

 

(f)                The Company must provide the Purchasers with a second Subsequent Financing Notice, and the Purchasers will again have the right of participation set forth above in this Section 7.4, if the Subsequent Financing subject to the initial Subsequent Financing Notice is not consummated for any reason on the terms set forth in such Subsequent Financing Notice within thirty (30) Trading Days after the date of the initial Subsequent Financing Notice.

 

(g)               The Company and each Purchaser agree that if any Purchaser elects to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the transaction documents related to the Subsequent Financing shall not include any term or provision whereby such Purchaser shall be required to agree to any restrictions on trading as to any of the Securities purchased hereunder or be required to consent to any amendment to or termination of, or grant any waiver, release or the like under or in connection with, this Agreement, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser.

 

(h)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.4 and unless otherwise agreed to by such Purchaser, the Company shall either confirm in writing to such Purchaser that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the securities in the Subsequent Financing, in either case in such a manner such that such Purchaser will not be in possession of any material, non-public information, by the tenth (10th) Business Day following delivery of the Subsequent Financing Notice. If by such tenth (10th) Business Day, no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by such Purchaser, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and such Purchaser shall not be deemed to be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

8.2         Survival. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, including without limitation Section 9 hereof, shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Closing. No investigation by the Purchaser shall affect the survival or enforceability of the Company’s representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement.

 (a)                The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, his, her or its affiliates and respective officers, directors, partners, advisors, members, shareholders, employees and agents (collectively, the “Purchaser’ Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, judgments, penalties, liabilities and deficiencies (collectively, “Indemnitee Losses”), and agrees to reimburse the Purchaser’ Indemnitees for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel), in each case promptly as incurred by the Purchaser’ Indemnitees and to the extent arising out of or in connection with: (i) any material misrepresentation or material breach of any of the Company’s representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or the annexes, schedules or exhibits hereto; or (ii) any failure by the Company to perform any of the Company’s covenants, agreements, undertakings or obligations set forth in this Agreement or the annexes, schedules or exhibits hereto. The maximum aggregate liability of the Company for claims pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall be the Subscription Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not have any liability for indemnification pursuant to this Section 8.3 until the aggregate Indemnitee Losses are in excess of 5% of the Subscription Amount, at which point the Company shall be liable for the entire amount of Indemnitee Losses up to the maximum aggregate liability hereunder.

 

 (b)               Promptly after receipt by any indemnitee seeking indemnification pursuant to this Section 8.3 of written notice of any investigation, claim, proceeding or other action in respect of which indemnification is being sought (each, a “Claim”), the indemnitee seeking indemnification therefor (an “Indemnified Party”) promptly shall notify the Company (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the commencement thereof; but the omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it from any liability that it otherwise may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by reason of such failure. In connection with any Claim as to which both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are parties, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof. Notwithstanding the assumption of the defense of any Claim by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate legal counsel and to participate in the defense of such Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such separate legal counsel to the Indemnified Party if (and only if): (x) the Indemnifying Party shall have agreed to pay such fees, out-of-pocket costs and expenses, (y) the Indemnified Party reasonably shall have concluded that representation of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party by the same legal counsel would not be appropriate due to actual or, as reasonably determined by legal counsel to the Indemnified Party, potentially differing interests between such parties in the conduct of the defense of such Claim, or if there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are in addition to or disparate from those available to the Indemnifying Party, or (z) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to employ legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party within a reasonable period of time after notice of the commencement of such Claim. If the Indemnified Party employs separate legal counsel in circumstances other than as described in clauses (x), (y) or (z) above, the fees, costs and expenses of such legal counsel shall be borne exclusively by the Indemnified Party. Except as provided above, the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any Claim in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one firm of legal counsel for the Indemnified Party (together with appropriate local counsel). The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld), settle or compromise any Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment that does not include an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all Liabilities with respect to such Claim or judgment.

 

 

(c)                In the event an Indemnified Party shall have a claim for indemnification hereunder that does not involve a claim or demand being asserted by a third party, the Indemnified Party promptly shall deliver notice of such claim to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Party disputes the claim, such dispute shall be resolved by mutual agreement of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party or, failing any such agreement, by order or judgment of a court of appropriate jurisdiction.

 

8.4          Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement shall be deemed to have been duly given and made if in writing and if served either by personal delivery to the party for whom intended (which shall include delivery by Federal Express or similar nationally-recognized service) or three (3) business days after being deposited, postage prepaid, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, in the United States mail bearing the following address for, or such other address as may be designated in writing hereafter by, such party:

8.8          GOVERNING LAW. ALL QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT AND INTERPRETATION OF THE TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, 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 BY ANY OF THE TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS (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 THE CITY OF NEW YORK, COUNTY OF NEW YORK (THE “NEW YORK COURTS”).

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 TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS 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 THE TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. IF EITHER PARTY SHALL COMMENCE AN ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE ANY PROVISIONS OF THE TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, THEN THE PREVAILING PARTY IN SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE REIMBURSED BY THE OTHER PARTY FOR ITS REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND OTHER REASONABLE COSTS AND EXPENSES INCURRED IN THE INVESTIGATION, PREPARATION AND PROSECUTION OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING.

 

 

8.9           Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Facsimile signatures shall bind the parties hereto to the same extent as original signatures.

 

8.10         Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement and without affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

8.11         Cross References. References in this Agreement to any section are, unless otherwise specified, to such section of this Agreement.

 

8.12         Headings. The various headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any provisions hereof.

 

8.13         Exhibits and Schedules Incorporated. The exhibits and schedules to this Agreement are incorporated into and constitute an integral part of this Agreement.

 

8.14         Amendment and Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, no modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be effective unless such modification, amendment or waiver is approved in writing by both parties hereto. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement will in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and will not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement.

 

8.15         Injunctive Relief. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by any party of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements hereunder, any other party shall be entitled to an injunction or similar equitable relief restraining such party from committing or continuing any such breach or threatened breach or granting specific performance of any action required to be performed by such party under any such provision, without the necessity of proving any actual damages and without the necessity of posting any bond or other security.

 

 

8.16         Binding Effect. Except as otherwise provided herein, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties (including transferees of the Notes). Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and permitted assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. Any attempted assignment or delegation by a party hereto not in accordance with this Section 8.16 shall be void.

 

8.17         Attorneys’ Fees.

8.18         Construction. The parties hereto agree that this Agreement is the product of negotiations between sophisticated parties and individuals, all of whom were represented by counsel, and each of whom had an opportunity to participate in, and did participate in, the drafting of each provision hereof. Accordingly, ambiguities in this Agreement, if any, shall not be construed strictly or in favor of or against any party hereto but rather shall be given a fair and reasonable construction without regard to the rule of contra proferentem. As used in this Agreement, the word “including” shall mean “including without limitation” and the masculine gender shall include the feminine and the neuter gender.

Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in their review and negotiation of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

 

8.20         Fees and Expenses.

9.      THE COLLATERAL AGENT.

 

9.1           Appointment of Collateral Agent. Each Purchaser hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent to act on such Purchaser’s behalf as its collateral agent under the Security Agreement and its collateral agent with respect to the Collateral for the benefit of such Purchaser, to take such actions on behalf of such Purchaser and exercise such powers as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, together with such other actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Collateral Agent hereby confirms its acceptance of this appointment and agrees to act as the collateral agent for each Purchaser with respect to the Collateral, on behalf and for the benefit of such Purchaser, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Collateral Agent shall be appointed, and shall act, as collateral agent with respect to the Collateral for the benefit of other purchasers under documentation substantially similar to the Transaction Documents and the Collateral Agent.

 

9.2           Collateral Agent May Perform. If the Company fails to perform any agreement contained in the Security Agreement, the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of each Secured Party and at such Secured Party’s written direction, may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice, itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and all expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Company under both Section 6.07 and Section 6.08 of the Security Agreement.

 

9.3           The Collateral Agent’s Duties under the Security Agreement.

 

 (a)                The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect the Secured Parties’ interests in the Collateral. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral, as to ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not any Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property.

 

  

 (b)               The Collateral Agent’s duties and responsibilities hereunder shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, and no other further duties or responsibilities shall be implied. The Collateral Agent makes no representation and has no responsibility as to the validity of this Agreement or of any other instrument referred to herein, or the creation or perfection of any security interest. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any error of judgment, or any act done or omitted by it in good faith, or for any mistake of fact or law, or for anything which it may do or refrain from doing in connection therewith, except its gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment.

 

 (c)                In no event shall the Collateral Agent incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any obligation hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond its control (including, without limitation, any provision of any present or future law or regulation or any act of any governmental authority, any act of God, war or terrorism, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire services or any electronic communication facility).

 

 (d)               The Company and each Purchaser shall deliver to the Collateral Agent on or before the date hereof an authority and incumbency certificate, or a delegation of authority, setting forth the names, specimen signatures and telephone contacts of each Person authorized to provide directions to the Collateral Agent and promptly provide any changes thereto from time to time thereafter by delivering to the Collateral Agent a replacement of such certificate substantially in such form as is reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively on such certificate until it receives such a replacement certificate. The parties hereto agree that the above constitutes a commercially reasonable security procedure and further agree not to comply with any instruction or direction (other than those contained herein or delivered in accordance with this Agreement) from any other Person.

 

9.4           Delegation of Duties. The Collateral Agent, acting at the written direction of each Purchaser, may execute any of its respective duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document by or through any one or more agents, sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact, at the sole cost and expense of the Company, as appointed by the Collateral Agent and shall be entitled to advice of counsel or other advisors concerning all matters pertaining to its duties and rights hereunder. The exculpatory provisions of this Section 9 shall apply to any such agent, sub-agent or attorneys-in-fact. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agent, sub-agent or attorney-in-fact except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that such agent, sub-agent or attorney-in-fact acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

9.5           Collateral Agent’s Performance.

 

 (a)                The Collateral Agent shall:

 

 (i)               promptly inform each Purchaser of the contents of any written notice or document that, in its capacity as the Collateral Agent, it receives from or delivers to the Company or any governmental authority;

 

 

 (ii)            except as otherwise expressly provided in any Transaction Document, perform its duties in accordance with any written instructions given to it by a Purchaser, provided that it shall not be required to take any action that exposes it to personal liability or expense, or for which indemnification deemed sufficient by it in its reasonable discretion has not been provided, or that is contrary to the Transaction Documents or any applicable law; and

 

 (iii)          if so instructed by any Purchaser in writing, pursuant to the provisions of clause (ii) above, refrain from exercising any right, power, authority or discretion vested in it as the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.

 

(b)              Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall not take any actions other than upon the written instruction of each Purchaser.

 

9.6           Reliance by Collateral Agent; Right to Request Instruction.

 

 (a)                Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment), the Collateral Agent will be entitled to rely upon, and shall incur no liability and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any certificate, notice or other document (including any facsimile, telex or other electronic communication) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the Person or Persons purporting to issue such certificate, notice or other document, and upon advice and statement of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Collateral Agent with reasonable care. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, or the Security Agreement, the Collateral Agent will not be required to take any action or exercise any discretion. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, whenever reference is made in any Transaction Document to any discretionary action by, consent, designation, specifications, requirement or approval of, notice, request or other communications from or other direction given or action to be undertaken or to be (or not to be) suffered or omitted by the Collateral Agent or to any election, decision, opinion, acceptance, use of judgment, expression of satisfaction or other exercise of discretion, rights or remedies to be made (or not to be made) by the Collateral Agent, it is understood that in all cases the Collateral Agent will have the right at any time to seek instructions from each Purchaser, and will, in all such cases, have no liability in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder in accordance with the written instruction, advice or concurrence of the Purchasers, as it deems appropriate. This provision is intended solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and its successors and permitted assigns and it not intended to and will not entitle the other parties thereto to any defense, claim or counterclaim, or confer any rights or benefits on any of them.

 

 (b)               The Collateral Agent shall not be liable (i) with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the written direction of each Purchaser relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to such Purchaser, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon such Purchaser, under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or (ii) for any loss of profits, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or indirect damages.

 

  

 (c)                The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of the existence of any default or event of default under any Transaction Document until such time as it has received notification of the same from each Purchaser or the Company.

 

 (d)               Except as provided in Section 9.7, no provision of this Agreement shall require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

 

9.7           Resignation of the Collateral Agent.

 

 (a)                Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Collateral Agent as provided below, the Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving at least ninety (90) days’ prior written notice thereof to each Purchaser and the Company. Upon any such resignation, each Purchaser will have the right and responsibility to appoint a successor Collateral Agent, which successor Collateral Agent shall (unless any default or event of default under any Transaction Document has occurred and is continuing) be reasonably acceptable to the Company. If no successor Collateral Agent has been appointed by the Purchasers and has accepted such appointment within ninety (90) days after the retiring Collateral Agent’s giving of written notice of resignation, then such retiring Collateral Agent may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Collateral Agent to act until such time, if any, as a successor Collateral Agent is otherwise appointed in accordance with this Section 9.7. Until the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent by such court, such retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to act as Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. Any successor Collateral Agent appointed by such court shall immediately and without further act be superseded by any successor Collateral Agent appointed by the Purchasers in accordance with this Section 9.7. Upon its acceptance of appointment as Collateral Agent hereunder, (i) a successor Collateral Agent will thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent and the retiring Collateral Agent will be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and each relevant Transaction Document and (ii) the retiring Collateral Agent will promptly transfer all of the Collateral in its possession or control held in the name of the retiring Collateral Agent for the benefit of each Purchaser and will execute and deliver such notices, instructions and assignments as may be necessary or desirable to transfer the rights of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of each Purchaser with respect to such Collateral to the successor Collateral Agent for the benefit of each Purchaser. After the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder as Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 of this Agreement and Section 6.08 of the Security Agreement will continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Collateral Agent.

 

 (b)               If the Collateral Agent resigns pursuant to this Section 9.7, the resigning Collateral Agent (at its own cost and expense), shall make available to the successor Collateral Agent such records, documents and information in the resigning Collateral Agent’s possession and provide such assistance as the successor Collateral Agent may reasonably request in connection with its appointment as the successor Collateral Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, other than the costs and expenses set forth in the preceding sentence, all costs and expenses associated with the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent shall be for the account of the Company in accordance with Section 6.07 and Section 6.08 of the Security Agreement.

 

 

9.8           Absence of Fiduciary Relationship. Each of the Collateral Agent and the Purchasers undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its agreements and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. No implied agreements, covenants or obligations with respect to the Company or any of its Affiliates or any Transaction Document to which the Company or any of its Affiliates is a party shall be read into this Agreement against the Collateral Agent or any Purchaser. None of the Collateral Agent or any Purchaser is a fiduciary of and shall not owe or be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates.

 

9.9            Additional Actions. From time to time, the Company shall execute and deliver to each Purchaser and the Collateral Agent such additional documents, and take such other actions, as such Purchaser or the Collateral Agent may reasonably require to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents or to preserve and protect such Purchaser’s rights or the rights of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as contemplated herein.

 

9.10         Additional Disclosures. As of the date hereof the Collateral Agent is the holder of a $500,000 Secured Promissory Note issued by the Company pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of August 26, 2014.  In addition, the Collateral Agent also owns less than ten percent (10%) of the Company’s equity securities as of the date hereof.  By executing this Agreement, each Purchaser acknowledges that it has read this Section 9.10 and that it has considered, with legal counsel, any potential conflicts of interest which may arise as a result of an investor serving as Collateral Agent prior to making the decision to invest in the Securities.
