PURCHASER QUESTIONNAIRE AND STATEMENT


 


THIS QUESTIONNAIRE IS TO BE COMPLETED AND DELIVERED TO MEYERS ASSOCIATES, L.P. PRIOR TO ACCEPTANCE OF THE SUBSCRIPTION BY THE COMPANY, CERTAIN CONDITIONS MUST BE MET.


 


INSTRUCTIONS:  This Questionnaire, along with the attached Subscription Agreement, is being provided to each individual (or entity) who has expressed an interest in purchasing units (“Units”),  consisting of shares of convertible preferred stock (“Preferred Stock”) and warrants to purchase common stock (“Warrant”) of SignPath Pharma Inc. (the “Company”).  Prior to your acceptance by the Company as a subscriber, you must meet, among other requirements, the standards imposed by Regulation D as adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), since the Units have not been registered under the Securities Act and are being sold in reliance upon the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder.  The Company has established general investor suitability requirements for all investors requiring that each natural person or entity who subscribes for Units must be an “accredited investor,” as such term is defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act.  The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Company is relying on the undersigned’s representations contained in this Questionnaire and the related Subscription Agreement in determining whether to accept the subscription.


 


Please contact Elliot H. Lutzker, counsel to the Company, at Davidoff Hutcher & Citron LLP, 605 Third Avenue Avenue, 34th Floor, New York, New York 10158, (646) 428-3210, if you have any questions in completing this Questionnaire.


 


If your answer to any question is “none” or “not applicable,” please so state.


 


Your answers will, at all times, be kept strictly confidential; however, everyone who agrees to purchase the Units hereby agrees that the Company may present this Questionnaire to such parties as they deem appropriate in order to assure themselves that the offer and sale of the Units to you will not result in a loss of the exemption from registration under the Securities Act, which is being relied upon by the Company in connection with the sale of the Units.


 


Please complete this Questionnaire as thoroughly as possible and sign, date and return one copy.  In case of insufficient space, please attach additional pages, as needed, to assure that complete answers are submitted.

5.Subscriber’s Representations and Warranties.  Each Subscriber hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof and as of the Closing, with regard to itself that:


 


(a)           Reliance on Exemptions.  The Subscriber acknowledges that the Offering has not been reviewed by the SEC or any state agency because it is intended to be a nonpublic offering exempt from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act and state securities laws.  The Subscriber understands that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Subscriber’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgements and understandings of the Subscriber set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Subscriber to acquire the Units.


 


(b)           Information on Subscriber.  The Subscriber is, and will be at the time of the exercise of the Warrants, an “accredited investor” as defined in Section 2(a)(15) of the 1933 Act and Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.  Such Subscriber is not required to be registered as a broker-dealer under Section 15 of the 1934 Act, is experienced in investments and business matters, has previously made investments of a speculative nature, understands that an investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk, has purchased securities of United States companies in private placements in the past and, with its representatives, has such knowledge and experience in financial, tax and other business matters as to enable the Subscriber to utilize the information made available by the Company to evaluate the merits and risks of and to make an informed investment decision with respect to the proposed purchase, which represents a speculative investment.  The Subscriber, if not a natural person, has the necessary authority to and is duly and legally qualified to purchase and own the Securities. If the Subscriber is natural person, he or she has reached the age of majority in the state in which the Subscriber resides, has adequate means of providing for the Subscriber's current needs and personal contingencies and is able to bear the risk of such investment for an indefinite period and to afford a complete loss thereof.  The information set forth on the signature page hereto and in such Subscriber’s Questionnaire regarding the Subscriber is accurate.  The sale of the Securities to the Subscriber as contemplated in this Agreement complies with or is exempt from the applicable securities legislation of the jurisdiction of the residence of the Subscriber.

(c)           Investment Purpose.  At Closing, the Subscriber will purchase the Units for its own account for investment purposes only and not as a nominee or agent and not with a view towards or for resale in connection with the distribution of the Securities.


 


(d)           Risk of Involvement.  The Subscriber recognizes that the purchase of the Units involves a high degree of risk in that:  (i) an investment in the Company is highly speculative and only investors who can afford the loss of their entire investment should consider investing in the Company and the Securities; (ii) transferability of the Securities is limited; and (iii) the Company may require substantial additional funds to operate its business and there can be no assurance that the Offering will be completed or that any other funds will be available to the Company, in addition to all of the other risks set forth in the Company’s Memorandum.


 


(e)           Information.  The Subscriber acknowledges careful review of:  (i) the Memorandum; (ii) this Agreement; and (iii) all exhibits, schedules and appendices which are part of the aforementioned documents (collectively, the “Offering Documents”), and hereby represents that:  (A) the Subscriber has been furnished by the Company during the course of this transaction with all information regarding the Company which it has requested; (B) that the Subscriber has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from duly authorized officers of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the Offering; and (C) the Subscriber, if it has requested, has been given the opportunity by the Placement Agent to review the Agency Agreement.


 


(f)           Compliance with Securities Act.  The Subscriber understands and agrees that the Securities are “restricted securities” that have not been registered under the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities laws, by reason of their issuance in a transaction that does not require registration under the 1933 Act (based in part on the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Subscriber contained herein), and that such Securities must be held indefinitely unless a subsequent disposition is registered under the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from such registration.


 


(g)           No Representations.  The Subscriber hereby represents that, except as expressly set forth in the Offering Documents, no representations or warranties have been made to the Subscriber by the Company or any agent, employee or affiliate of the Company, including the Placement Agent, and in entering into this transaction the Subscriber is not relying on any information other than that contained in the Offering Documents and the results of independent investigation by the Subscriber.  The Subscriber has conducted its own due diligence of the Company and is not relying on the Placement Agent’s diligence.

(h)           Transfer or Resale.  The Subscriber acknowledges that there is no public market for any of the Company’s securities.  The Subscriber understands that Rule 144 (the “Rule”) promulgated under the 1933 Act requires, among other conditions, a six-month holding period prior to the resale (in limited amounts) of securities of a reporting issuer acquired in a non-public offering without having to satisfy the registration requirements under the 1933 Act.  The Subscriber understands and hereby acknowledges that the Company is under no obligation to register the Common Stock under the 1933 Act, with the exception of certain registration rights covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock into which the Preferred Stock are convertible and into which the Warrants are exercisable (together, the “Underlying Shares”) which were purchased by the Subscriber pursuant to this Agreement set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement.  The Subscriber consents that the Company may, if it desires, permit the transfer of the Securities out of the Subscriber’s name only when the Subscriber’s request for transfer is accompanied by an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that neither the sale nor the proposed transfer results in a violation of the 1933 Act or any applicable state “blue sky” laws.


 


(i)           No Hedging Transactions.  The Subscriber hereby agrees not to engage in any Hedging Transaction (as defined herein) until such time as the Underlying Shares, as applicable, have been registered for resale under the 1933 Act or may otherwise be sold in the public market without an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act. “Hedging Transaction” means any short sale (whether or not against the box) or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to any security (other than a broad-based market basket or index) that includes, relates to or derives any significant part of its value from the Company’s Common Stock or any rights, warrants, options or other securities that are convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, Common Stock.

No person has any right of first refusal, preemptive right, right of participation, or any similar right to participate in the transactions contemplated by this Offering or otherwise. The issue and sale of the Units will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other securities to any person (other than the Subscribers) and will not result in a right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under such securities.


 


(c)           Authority; Enforceability.  This Agreement and the Securities have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and are valid and binding agreements enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity, and the Company has full corporate power and authority necessary to enter into this Agreement, the Warrants, the Escrow Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, and such other agreements and to perform its obligations hereunder and under all other agreements entered into by the Company relating hereto. All corporate action on the part of the Company by its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of, and the performance by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement and the other agreements entered into as contemplated by this Agreement has been taken.

No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court, governmental agency or body or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Company, or over any of its affiliates, FINRA, Nasdaq, the OTC Bulletin Board nor the Company’s stockholders is required for execution of this Agreement and all other agreements entered into by the Company relating thereto, including, without limitation, the issuance and sale of the Securities, and the performance of the Company’s obligations hereunder and under all such other agreements.


 


(e)           No Violation or Conflict.  Assuming the representations and warranties of the Subscribers in Section 5 are true and correct, neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the issuance and sale of the Securities nor the performance of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement and all other agreements entered into by the Company relating thereto by the Company will:


 


(i)           violate, conflict with, result in a material breach of, or constitute a default (or an event which with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both would be reasonably likely to constitute a default) or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation under (A) the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company, (B) any decree, judgment, order, law, treaty, rule, regulation or determination applicable to the Company of any court, governmental agency or body, or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its affiliates (including federal and state securities laws and regulations) or over the properties or assets of the Company or any of its affiliates, (C) the terms of any bond, debenture, note or any other evidence of indebtedness, or any agreement, stock option or other similar plan, indenture, lease, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument to which the Company or any of its affiliates is a party, by which the Company or any of its affiliates is bound or affected, or to which any of the properties or assets of the Company or any of its affiliates is subject, or (D) the terms of any “lock-up” or similar provision of any underwriting or similar agreement to which the Company, or any of its affiliates is a party except the violation, conflict, breach, or default of which would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company; or

(ii)           have been, or will be, duly and validly authorized and on the date of issuance will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable (and if eventually registered pursuant to the 1933 Act, and resold pursuant to an effective registration statement will be free trading and unrestricted, provided that each Subscriber complies with the prospectus delivery requirements of the 1933 Act and any state securities laws);

(g)           Litigation.  There is no pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened action, suit, proceeding inquiry, notice of violation, or investigation before any court, governmental or administrative agency or regulatory body (federal, state, county, local or foreign), or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Company, or any of its affiliates that would challenge the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement and/or the Offering, or otherwise affect the execution by the Company or the performance by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement, and all other agreements entered into by the Company relating hereto.  Except as disclosed in the Offering Documents, there is no pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened action, suit, proceeding or investigation before any court, governmental agency or body, or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Company, or any of its affiliates which litigation if adversely determined would have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company.


 


(h)           Defaults; Permits.  The Company is not in violation of its Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws.  The Company is (i) not in default under or in violation of any other material agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties are bound or affected, which default or violation would have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company, (ii) not in default with respect to any order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body or subject to or party to any order of any court or governmental authority arising out of any action, suit or proceeding under any statute or other law respecting antitrust, monopoly, restraint of trade, unfair competition or similar matters, or (iii) to its knowledge in violation of any statute, rule or regulation of any governmental authority which violation would have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company. The Company possesses all material certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal, state or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses other than where the failure to possess such certificates, authorizations or permits, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has not received any notice or otherwise become aware of any proceedings, inquiries or investigations relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate, authorization or permit.


 




  





25











  






 


(i)           No General Solicitation.  Neither the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor to the Company’s knowledge, any person acting on its or their behalf, has, directly or indirectly made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security that would cause the offer of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the 1933 Act or any applicable stockholder approval provisions. Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates will take any action or steps that would cause the offer of the Securities to be integrated with other offerings if such integration would eliminate the Offering Exemption. Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates, nor to the Company’s knowledge, any person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D) in connection with the offer or sale of the Units.


 


(j)           Disclosure.  None of the representations and warranties of the Company appearing in this Agreement nor any information appearing in any of the Offering Documents, when considered together as a whole, contains, or on the Closing will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omits, or on the Closing will omit, to state any material fact required to be stated herein or therein in order for the statements herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not to be misleading.


 


(k)           No Undisclosed Liabilities or Events.  The Company has no liabilities or obligations which are material, individually or in the aggregate, which are not disclosed in the Offering Documents, other than those incurred in the ordinary course of the Company’s businesses since September 30, 2014.  There has been no event or circumstance that has occurred or exists with respect to the Company or its businesses, properties, operations or financial condition, that, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires disclosure but which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed in the Offering Documents.


 


(l)           Intellectual Property.  The Company owns, free and clear of claims or rights of any other person, with full right to use, sell, license, sublicense, dispose of, and bring actions for infringement of, or has acquired licenses or other rights to use, all intellectual property necessary for the conduct of its business as presently conducted (other than with respect to “off-the-shelf” software which is generally commercially available and open source software which may be subject to one or more “general public” licenses.  A complete list of patents, pending patent applications and all other intellectual property is available upon request from the Company.  The business of the Company as presently conducted does not, to the Company’s knowledge, infringe or conflict with any patent, trademark, copyright, or trade secret rights of any third parties or any other intellectual property of any third parties. The Company has not received written notice from any third party asserting that any intellectual property owned or licensed by the Company, or which the Company otherwise has the right to use, is invalid or unenforceable by the Company and, to the Company’s knowledge, there is no valid basis for any such claim (whether or not pending or threatened).  No claim is pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened against the Company nor has the Company received any written notice or other written claim from any person asserting that any of the Company’s present or contemplated activities infringe or may infringe in any material respect any intellectual property of such person, and the Company is not aware of any infringement by any other Person of any material rights of the Company under any intellectual property rights. The Company has taken all steps required in accordance with commercially reasonable business practice to establish and preserve its respective ownership in its intellectual property and to keep confidential all material technical information developed by or belonging to the Company which has not been patented or copyrighted.

(m)           Investment Company Status.  The Company is not, and immediately after receipt of the Final Closing will not be, an “investment company” or an entity “controlled” by an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), and the Company shall conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become subject to the Investment Company Act.


 


(n)           Taxes.   The Company (i) has prepared in good faith and duly and timely filed all tax returns required to be filed by it or is on a current extension and such returns are complete and accurate in all material respects and (ii) has paid all taxes required to have been paid by it, except for taxes which it reasonably disputes in good faith or the failure of which to pay has not had or would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has no any liability with respect to accrued taxes in excess of the amounts that are described as accrued in the most recent financial statements included in the Offering Documents.


 


(o)           Solvency.  The Company has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which lead it to believe that it will be required to file for reorganization or liquidation under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction and has no present intention to so file.

Except as described in the Prospectus,  no officer, director, employee or affiliate of the Company is or has taken any steps to become a party to any transaction with the Company (other than for services as employees, officers and directors), including any contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the knowledge of the Company, any entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee or partner.

8.           Reissuance of Securities.  The Company agrees to reissue certificates representing the Underlying Shares without the legends set forth in Sections 5(j) and 5(k) above, (a) at such time as the holder thereof is permitted to dispose of the Securities without volume or manner of sale restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act in the opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or (b) upon resale subject to an effective registration statement after the resale of the shares of Common Stock and Common Stock underlying the Warrants is registered under the 1933 Act.  The Company agrees to cooperate with each Subscriber in connection with all resales pursuant to Rule 144 and to provide legal opinions at the Company’s expense necessary to allow such resales provided the Company and its counsel receive reasonably requested written representations from each Subscriber and its selling broker, if any.


 


9.           FINRA Member Firm Compensation.  The Company on the one hand, and each Subscriber on the other hand, agree to indemnify the other against and hold the other harmless from any and all liabilities to any persons claiming brokerage commissions other than Meyers Associates, L.P. on account of services purported to have been rendered on behalf of the indemnifying party in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and arising out of such party’s actions.  However, Meyers Associates, L.P. may engage other FINRA registered firms and pay negotiated compensation to such selling group members. The Company shall pay the Placement Agent sales commission(s) equal to 10% of the gross proceeds from the sale of Units, as well as 3% non-accountable expense allowance.  The Placement Agent will also receive warrants to purchase up to 20% of the Units sold at $2.00 per Unit.  The Company will pay the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to 10% of the total cash proceeds received from the exercise of Warrants.


 


10.           Covenants of the Company.  At all times shares of Common Stock and Warrants remain outstanding, the Company covenants and agrees with the Subscribers as follows:


 


(a)           Reservation of Common Stock.  The Company undertakes to reserve from its authorized but unissued common stock, at all times Warrants remain outstanding, a number of Underlying Shares equal to the amount of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.


 


(b)           Confidentiality.  Subject to being named in the Company’s SEC filings as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company agrees that it will not disclose publicly or privately the identity of any Subscriber unless expressly agreed to in writing by that Subscriber or only to the extent required by law.


 




  





28











  






 


(c)           Reporting Requirements.  The Company will (i) cause its Common Stock to continue to be registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the 1934 Act following the completion of the Offering, or (ii) comply in all respects with its reporting and filing obligations under the 1934 Act, (iii) comply with all reporting requirements that are applicable to an issuer with a class of shares registered pursuant to Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act, as applicable, and (iv) comply with all requirements related to any registration statement filed pursuant to this Agreement.  The Company will use its best efforts to not take any action or file any document (whether or not permitted by the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act or the rules thereunder) to terminate or suspend such registration or to terminate or suspend its reporting and filing obligations under said acts.  Until the earlier of the resale of the Shares and Underlying Shares by each Subscriber or at least one (1) year after the Warrants have been exercised, the Company will use reasonable efforts to continue the listing or quotation, if any, of the Common Stock on the Principal Market and will comply in all respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Principal Market.


 


(d)           Stop Orders.  Following effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the Company will advise the Subscribers, promptly after it receives notice of issuance by the SEC, any state securities commission or any other regulatory authority of any stop order or of any order preventing or suspending any offering of any securities of the Company, or of the suspension of the qualification of the Common Stock of the Company for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation of any proceeding for any such purpose.


 


(e)           Use of Proceeds.  The proceeds received by the Company in the Offering will be used by the Company as set forth in the Memorandum under “Use of Proceeds”.


 


(f)           Taxes.  The Company will promptly pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, when due and payable, all material lawful taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon the income, profits, property or business of the Company; provided, however, that any such tax, assessment, charge or levy need not be paid if the validity thereof shall currently be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and if the Company shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto; and provided, further, that the Company will pay all such material taxes, assessments, charges or levies forthwith upon the commencement of proceedings to foreclose any lien which may have attached as security therefor.


 


(g)           Insurance.  The Company is or will be insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such material losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company is engaged. The Company has no current reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business.  The Company will keep its assets which are of an insurable character insured by financially sound and reputable insurers against loss or damage by fire, explosion and other risks customarily insured against by companies in the Company’s line of business, in amounts sufficient to prevent the Company from becoming a co-insurer and not in any event less than 100% of the insurable value of the property insured; and the Company will maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance against other hazards and risks and liability to persons and property to the extent and in the manner customary for companies in similar businesses similarly situated and to the extent available on commercially reasonable terms.

(h)           Books and Records.

(i)           Governmental Authorities.  The Company shall duly observe and conform in all material respects to all valid requirements of governmental authorities relating to the conduct of its business or to its properties or assets.


 


(j)           Properties.  The Company will keep its properties in good repair, working order and condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and from time to time make all needful and proper repairs, renewals, replacements, additions and improvements thereto; and the Company will at all times comply with each provision of all leases to which it is a party or under which it occupies property if the breach of such material provision could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


11.           Covenants of the Company and Subscriber Regarding Indemnification.


 


(a)           The Company agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Subscribers, the Subscribers’ officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control persons, and principal shareholders, against any claim, cost, expense, liability, obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Subscriber or any such person which results, arises out of or is based upon (i) any material misrepresentation by Company or breach of any warranty by Company in this Agreement or in any Exhibits or Schedules attached hereto, or other agreement delivered pursuant hereto; or (ii) after any applicable notice and/or cure periods, any breach or default in performance by the Company of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by the Company hereunder, or any other agreement entered into by the Company and Subscriber relating hereto.

In the event the number of shares of Common Stock covered under a Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2(a) is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities which such Registration Statement is required to cover (subject to the proviso set forth in the definition of “Registrable Securities” above), the Company shall use its best efforts to amend the Registration Statement, or file a new Registration Statement, or both, so as to cover at least 100% of the Registrable Securities, in each case, as soon as practicable.

No Holder may participate in any underwritten registration with respect to the Registrable Securities unless such Holder completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, lock-up letters and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting agreements.


 


(d)           Other Requirements.  In connection with any Registration Statement under Section 2(a), Holders whose Registrable Securities are included therein shall provide such information and shall execute and deliver to the Company such documents, including, but not limited to, a selling shareholder questionnaire in customary form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company (“Selling Shareholder Questionnaire”), as the Company may reasonably request in order to effect such registration pursuant to this Agreement and in accordance with applicable securities laws.


 


(e)           Piggy-Back Registrations.  If at any time during the Effectiveness Period there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with the stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall send to each Holder a written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen (15) days after the date of such notice, any such Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities such Holder requests to be registered, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of registration rights on a pro rata basis, provided that if at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register or to delay registration of such securities, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to such Holder and, thereupon, (i) in the case of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay expenses in accordance with Section 4 hereof), and (ii) in the case of a determination to delay registering, shall be permitted to delay registering any Registrable Securities being registered pursuant to this Section for the same period as the delay in registering such other securities.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to register any Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section that are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(b) promulgated under the Securities Act or that are the subject of a then effective Registration Statement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be construed of relieving the Company of its obligations under this Agreement.


 




  





  











  






 


(f)           Damages.  If: (i) the Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to the Filing Date, or (ii) the Company fails to file with the SEC a request for acceleration of the Registration Statement in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act, within five (5) Trading Days of the date that the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review, or (iii) the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the SEC by the Effective Date (any such failure or breach being referred to as an “Event”, and for purposes of clauses (i) and (iii) the date on which such Event occurs, and for purpose of clause (ii) the date on which such five (5) Trading Day period is exceeded, being referred to as “Event Date”), then, in addition to any other rights the Holders may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash or Common Stock, at the Company’s option,  or a combination thereof as damages and not as a penalty, equal to 2% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant to the Subscription Agreement for any unregistered Registrable Securities then held by such Holder, which amount shall be payable within five (5) calendar days of the first monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (on a pro rata basis for partial months) and each monthly anniversary thereafter (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such date) for up to six (6) months from the Event Date, exclusive of any delays caused by the Purchaser’s failure to provide and satisfy any requests of the SEC.  The number of shares of Common Stock issuable in lieu of cash hereunder shall be equal to A divided by B, in which A equals the dollar amount of accrued and payable partial liquidated damages to be paid in shares of Common Stock and B equals either (i) the average of the closing price on the Trading Market for the ten (10) Trading Days immediately preceding the date of payment of such partial liquidated damages or (ii) should there be no relevant Trading Market, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company.  Except as otherwise provided herein, if at any time the Company pays partial damages partially in cash and partially in shares of Common Stock, then such payment shall be distributed ratably among the Holders based upon the Subscription Amount paid by each Holder.

(b)           (i) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, including post-effective amendments, to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective as to the applicable Registrable Securities for the Effectiveness Period; (ii) cause the related Prospectus to be amended or supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented or amended to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; (iii) respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any comments received from the SEC with respect to the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto and, as promptly as reasonably practicable, upon request, provide the Holders’ Representative true and complete copies of all correspondence from and to the SEC relating to the Registration Statement (subject, if appropriate, to the execution of confidentiality agreements in form acceptable to the Company); and (iv) cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective with five (5) business days after receipt of a “no review” by the SEC.


 


(c)           Notify the Holders of Registrable Securities to be sold as promptly as reasonably possible (and, in the case of (i)(A) below, not less than three (3) Trading Days prior to such filing) and (if requested by any such Person) confirm such notice in writing promptly following the day (i)(A) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement is proposed to be filed; (B) when the SEC notifies the Company whether there will be a “review” of the Registration Statement and whenever the SEC comments in writing on the Registration Statement (the Company shall upon request provide true and complete copies thereof and all written responses thereto to the Holders’ Representative, subject, if appropriate, to the execution of confidentiality agreements in form acceptable to the Company); and (C) with respect to the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective; (ii) of any request by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement covering any or all of the Registrable Securities or the initiation of any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose; and (v) of the occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes the financial statements included in the Registration Statement ineligible for inclusion therein or any statement made in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to the Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.


 




  





  











  






 


(d)           Avoid the issuance of, or, if issued, obtain the withdrawal of (i) any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, at the earliest practicable moment.


 


(e)           Promptly deliver to each Holder no later than five (5) business days after the Effectiveness Date, without charge, two (2) copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of prospectus) and each amendment or supplement thereto (and, upon the request of the Holder such additional copies as such Persons may reasonably request in connection with resales by the Holder of Registrable Securities).  The Company hereby consents to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, except after the giving of any notice pursuant to Section 3(c)(ii)-(v).


 


(f)           Prior to any resale of Registrable Securities by a Holder, use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from the registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for the resale by the Holder under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any Holder reasonably requests in writing, to keep such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, subject the Company to any material tax in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.


 


(g)           If requested by the Holders, cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to the Registration Statement, which certificates shall be free, to the extent permitted by the Subscription Agreement, of all restrictive legends, and to enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as any such Holders may request.


 


(h)           Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 3(c), as promptly as reasonably possible under the circumstances taking into account the Company’s good faith assessment of any adverse consequences to the Company and its stockholders of the premature disclosure of such event, prepare and file a supplement or amendment, including a post-effective amendment, to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered, neither the Registration Statement nor such Prospectus will contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Company will use, in good faith, its commercially reasonable best efforts to ensure that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed as promptly as is practicable.  In accordance with the provisions of Section 6(o), the Company shall be entitled to exercise its right under this Section 3(h) to suspend the availability of a Registration Statement and Prospectus.

(j)           The Company shall not be required to include in any Registration Statement the Registrable Securities of any Holder that does not complete a Selling Shareholder Questionnaire.


 


(k)           Make all documents, files, books, records, officers, directors and employees of the Company reasonably available to the Holders’ Representative, one legal counsel to the Holder and one firm of accountants retained by the Holders (collectively, the “Inspectors”), and make such other accommodations as are reasonably necessary for the Inspectors, if any, to perform a due diligence review of the Company; provided, however, that all such information (“Confidential Information”) will be kept confidential and not utilized by the Inspectors except as contemplated herein and except as required by law or court order.  The term Confidential Information also includes any information included in a draft Registration Statement or any related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto provided to a Holder pursuant to Section 3(a); for the avoidance of doubt, however, the Company shall not furnish to Holders, without their prior approval, any information that constitutes or might constitute material, non-public information.

The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning any Holder is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt written notice to such Holder and allow such Holder, at the Holder’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information.

The Company shall notify the Holders promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding of which the Company is aware in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.


 


(b)           Indemnification by Holders. Each Holder shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling Persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, to the extent arising out of or based upon: (x) such Holder’s failure to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act or (y) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading (i) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is contained in any information so furnished (or in the case of an omission, results from the failure of such Holder to fully or accurately complete the Selling Shareholder Questionnaire) in writing by or on behalf of such Holder to the Company specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement or such Prospectus or (ii) to the extent that (1) such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding such Holder furnished (or in the case of an omission, results from the failure of such Holder to fully or accurately complete the Selling Shareholder Questionnaire) in writing to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder or such Holder’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and which proposed method was reviewed by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement (it being understood that the Holder has reviewed Annex A hereto for this purpose), such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or (2) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 3(c)(ii)-(v), the use by such Holder of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company has notified such Holder in writing that the Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder of the Advice contemplated in Section 6(c), or (3) the failure of the Holder to deliver a Prospectus as amended or supplemented prior to the confirmation of a sale. In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the gross proceeds received by the Holder with respect to the sale of its Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.


 




  





  











  






 


(c)           Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that such failure shall have materially prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.


 


An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in (but not control) the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to assume the defense of such Proceeding in a timely manner and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel in writing that a conflict of interest would exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel for all Indemnified Parties in any matters related on a factual basis shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding affected without its written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.


 




  





  











  






 


All reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within fifteen (15) Business Days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party; provided, that the Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for that portion of such fees and expenses applicable to such actions for which such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder, determined based upon the relative faults of the parties.


 


(d)           Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under Section 5(a) or Section 5(b) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5(c), any reasonable attorneys’ or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in accordance with its terms.


 


(e)           The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in Section 5(d).  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5(d), no Holder shall be required to indemnify or contribute, in the aggregate, pursuant to this Article 5, any amount in excess of the amount by which the proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, except in the case of fraud by such Holder. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties.  No party guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation pursuant to Section 11(f) of the Securities Act shall be entitled to contribution from any other party.


 




  





  











  






 


6.           Miscellaneous.


 


(a)           Remedies.  In the event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder of any of their obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the Company, as the case may be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and under this Agreement will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement.  The Company and each Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.


 


(b)           Compliance. Each Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.


 


(c)           Discontinued Disposition. Each Holder agrees by its acquisition of such Registrable Securities that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 3(c)(ii)-(v), such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement until such Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented Prospectus and/or amended Registration Statement or until it is advised in writing (the “Advice”) by the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and, in either case, has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in such Prospectus or Registration Statement.  The Company may provide appropriate stop orders to enforce the provisions of this paragraph.


 


(d)           Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Company and the Holders of at least sixty-six percent (66%) of the then outstanding Registrable Securities (assuming the exercise of all Warrants and conversion of the Preferred Shares, regardless of whether such securities have been exercised or converted), whereupon such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver shall be binding on all Holders; provided, however, that no consideration shall be offered or paid to any Holder to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement unless the same consideration (on a pro-rata basis) is also offered to all of the Holders under this Agreement.


 


(e)           Notices. All notices that are required or may be given pursuant to this Agreement must be in writing and delivered personally, by a recognized courier service, by a recognized overnight delivery service, or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the parties at the following addresses (or to the attention of such other person or such other address as any party may provide to the other parties by notice in accordance with this section):

(i)           Waiver of Jury Trial  EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.

(j)           Cumulative Remedies.  Subject to the first sentence of Section 6(a), the remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.


 


(k)           Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction.

Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered at any closing, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or 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 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, 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 REPRESENTS THAT IS HAS BEEN REPRESENTED BY ITS OWN SEPARATE LEGAL COUNSEL IN ITS REVIEW AND NEGOTIATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.  The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required to do so by the Purchasers.


 




  





  











  






 


(n)           Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights of any Holder under this Agreement shall be automatically assignable by such Holder to any transferee of all or any portion of Registrable Securities (other than pursuant to a public sale or Rule 144) if: (1) such Holder agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company promptly after such assignment; (2) the Company is, promptly after such transfer or assignment, furnished with written notice of (i) the name and address of such transferee or assignee, and (ii) the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned; and (3) at or before the time the Company receives the written notice contemplated by clause (2) of this sentence the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions contained herein.


 


(o)           Deferral Period.  With respect to any Registration Statement filed or to be filed pursuant to Section 2, if the Company determines that, in its good faith judgment, it would (because of the existence of, or in reasonable anticipation of, any acquisition or corporate reorganization or other transaction, financing activity, stock repurchase or other material development involving the Company or any subsidiary, or the unavailability for reasons beyond the Company’s control of any required financial statements or other material information, or any other event or condition material to the Company or any subsidiary) be materially disadvantageous to the Company to proceed with such Registration Statement or that the Company is required by applicable law, rules or regulations not to proceed with the Registration Statement or to suspend its effectiveness (a “Material Development Condition”), then the Company shall, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, be entitled, upon the giving of a written notice that a Material Development Condition has occurred (a “Delay Notice”) from an officer of the Company to the Holders’ Representative, as the representative of the Purchasers, (i) to cause sales of Registrable Securities by the Purchasers pursuant to such Registration Statement to cease, (ii) to cause such Registration Statement to be withdrawn and the effectiveness of such Registration Statement suspended, or (iii) in the event no such Registration Statement has yet been filed or declared effective, to delay filing or effectiveness of any such Registration Statement until, in the good faith judgment of the Company, such Material Development Condition shall be disclosed or no longer exists (notice of which the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holders’ Representative, as the representative of the Purchasers).  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6(o), in the event a Registration Statement is filed and subsequently withdrawn by reason of any existing or anticipated Material Development Condition as provided above, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause a new Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities to be filed with the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable, but no later than the expiration of ninety (90) days from the Delay Notice.


 




  





  











  






 


(p)           Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, any annexes hereto and any writings incorporated herein by reference set forth the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. The recitals hereto are a material part of this Agreement and are incorporated in this Agreement by reference as if fully set forth herein.


 


(q)           No Piggyback on Registrations.  Neither the Company nor any of its security holders (other than the Holders in such capacity pursuant hereto) may include securities of the Company in the initial Registration Statement other than the Registrable Securities, and the Company shall not, during the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the Trading Day immediately following the actual effective date of such initial Registration Statement, enter into any agreement providing any such right to any of its security holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the Company may grant piggyback registration rights to third parties during the aforementioned period; provided, however, that such rights would expressly exclude the initial Registration Statement contemplated by this Agreement. The Company shall not file any other registration statements until the initial Registration Statement required hereunder is declared effective by the Commission.


 


(r)           No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company has entered, as of the date hereof, nor shall the Company, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities, that would have the effect of impairing the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.  Except as disclosed in the Offering Documents, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has previously entered into any agreement granting any registration rights with respect to any of its securities to any person that have not been satisfied in full.

ANNEX A


 


Plan of Distribution


 


The Selling Stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:


 



	
·

	
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker/dealer solicits purchasers;


	
·

	
block trades in which the broker/dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;


	
·

	
purchases by a broker/dealer as principal and resale by the broker/dealer for its account;


	
·

	
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;


	
·

	
privately negotiated transactions;


	
·

	
put or call options transactions;


	
·

	
settlement of short sales;


	
·

	
broker/dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;


	
·

	
a combination of any such methods of sale; and


	
·

	
any other method permitted by applicable law.







 


The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, if available, rather than under this prospectus.


 


Broker/dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers/dealers to participate in sales. Broker/dealers may receive commissions from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker/dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The Selling Stockholders do not expect these commissions to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.


 


The Selling Stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the donees, pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of Selling Stockholders to include the donee, pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as Selling Stockholders under this prospectus.


 




  





  











  






 


The Selling Stockholders and any broker/dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker/dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions under the Securities Act of 1933. The Selling Stockholders have informed the Company that they do not have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute common stock.


 


At the time a particular offering of securities is made, to the extent required, a prospectus supplement will be distributed which will set forth the number of securities being offered and the terms of the offering, including the purchase price or the public offering price, the name or names of any underwriters, dealers or agents, the purchase price paid by any underwriters for securities purchased from the Selling Stockholders, any discounts, commissions and other items constituting compensation from the selling security holders and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers.


 


Because Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.  In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus.  There is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale shares by the Selling Stockholders.


 


We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the shares may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume limitations by reason of Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the shares have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect.  The resale shares will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.


 


Pursuant to applicable rules and regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, any person engaged in the distribution of the securities offered under this prospectus may not simultaneously engage in market activities for the shares of common stock for a period of five business days prior to the commencement of such distribution.  In addition, each Selling Stockholder and any other person who participates in a distribution of the securities will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and may affect the marketability of the securities and the ability of any person to engage in market activities for the shares of common stock.


 




  





  











  






 


The Company is required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933.
