The Note shall be secured by a Security Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX III listing all of the Company’s assets (including all of the Buyer Trust Deed Notes (defined below) and the Buyer Notes (defined below)) as security for the Company’s obligations under the Transaction Documents (the “Security Agreement”). In consideration thereof, the Buyer shall pay (i) the principal amount set forth on the Buyer’s signature page to this Agreement (the “Initial Cash Purchase Price”), and (ii) issue to the Company the Buyer Trust Deed Notes and the Buyer Notes (the sum of the principal amount of the Buyer Trust Deed Notes and the Buyer Notes, together with the Initial Cash Purchase Price, the “Purchase Price”). Buyer Trust Deed Note #1, Buyer Trust Deed Note #2 and Buyer Trust Deed Note #3 (each as defined below, and referred to herein collectively as the “Buyer Trust Deed Notes”) shall be secured on the Closing Date by a Trust Deed substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX IV, as the same may be amended from time to time (the “Trust Deed”), subject to Section 2.1(d). Initially, only the Buyer Trust Deed Notes will be secured by the Trust Deed pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Trust Deed, the Buyer Trust Deed Notes and this Agreement, but the Buyer Notes (as defined below) may become secured subsequent to the Closing pursuant to Section 2.1(e) and the terms and conditions of the Buyer Notes.  The Initial Cash Purchase Price shall be paid in accordance with the Wire Instructions.  The Purchase Price is allocated to the Tranches (as defined in the Note) of the Note and to the Warrants as set forth in the table attached hereto as ANNEX V.


 


(b) In consideration for the Purchase Price, the Company shall, at the Closing:


 


(i) Issue to the Buyer:


 


(A) the Warrant #1 to Purchase Shares of Common Stock, exercisable on or after the Closing Date, substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX VI (“Warrant #1”);


 


(B) the Warrant #2 to Purchase Shares of Common Stock, exercisable only once the Buyer has paid Buyer Trust Deed Note #1 (defined below) in full, substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX VII (“Warrant #2”);


 


(C) the Warrant #3 to Purchase Shares of Common Stock, exercisable only once the Buyer has paid Buyer Trust Deed Note #2 (defined below) in full, substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX VIII (“Warrant #3”);

The Company and the Buyer hereby acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding that the Warrants are exercisable at different times, (1) all such Warrants are being issued at the Closing, (2) the Buyer is assuming the economic risk of investment with respect to all of the Warrants as of the Closing, (3) the Buyer is not providing any additional consideration for the Warrants post-Closing even though some of the Warrants will not be exercisable until after the Closing Date, and (4) it is the intent of the parties, for purposes of and consistent with the public policies undergirding Rule 144, that all of the Warrants shall be deemed issued to and acquired by the Buyer as of the Closing Date.


 


(ii) Cause Gray (A) to execute and deliver to the Buyer the Subordination Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX XIII (the “Subordination Agreement”), whereby the Gray Lien shall be subordinated to all Buyer Liens, and (B) to terminate all UCC financing statements Gray has filed or caused to be filed in connection with the Gray Lien by filing no later than the Closing all necessary UCC termination statements (following notice from the Buyer after the Closing that the Buyer has filed all UCC financing statements the Buyer deems necessary to perfect all Buyer Liens, Gray shall then be permitted to file desired UCC financing statements with respect to the Gray Lien).


 


(iii) Execute and deliver to Buyer a Request for Full Reconveyance (the “Request”) substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX XIV. The Request shall be held in escrow in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX XV (the “Escrow Agreement”).


 


(iv) Execute and deliver to the Transfer Agent, and the Transfer Agent shall execute to indicate its acceptance thereof, the irrevocable transfer agent instruction letter substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX XVI (the “Transfer Agent Letter”).


 


(v) Execute and deliver to the Buyer a Registration Rights Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX XVII (the “Registration Rights Agreement”).


 


(c) At the Closing, the Buyer shall deliver to the Company the following:


 


(i) the Initial Cash Purchase Price;


 


(ii) the Buyer Trust Deed Note #1 in the principal amount of $250,000.00 duly executed and substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX XVIII (the “Buyer Trust Deed Note #1”);


 


(iii) the Buyer Trust Deed Note #2 in the principal amount of $250,000.00 duly executed and substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX XIX (the “Buyer Trust Deed Note #2”);


 


(iv) the Buyer Trust Deed Note #3 in the principal amount of $250,000.00 duly executed and substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX XX (the “Buyer Trust Deed Note #3”);


 


(v) the Buyer Note #1 in the principal amount of $250,000.00 duly executed and substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX XXI (the “Buyer Note #1”);


 


(vi) the Buyer Note #2 in the principal amount of $250,000.00 duly executed and substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX XXII (the “Buyer Note #2”); and


 


(vii) the Buyer Note #3 in the principal amount of $250,000.00 duly executed and substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX XXIII (the “Buyer Note #3,” and together with Buyer Note #1 and Buyer Note #2, the “Buyer Notes”).


 


(viii) the Trust Deed duly executed and notarized and substantially in the form attached hereto as ANNEX IV;


 


(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Buyer may, in its sole discretion, add additional collateral to the collateral covered by the Trust Deed (the “Collateral”), and may, with the consent of the Company, not to be unreasonably withheld, substitute collateral provided that the fair market value of the substituted Collateral may not be less than the aggregate principal balance of the Buyer Trust Deed Notes as of the date of any such substitution.  In the event of a substitution of collateral, the Buyer shall timely execute any and all documents necessary or advisable in order to properly grant a first priority security interest upon the substitute collateral in favor of the Company, and the Company shall take such other measures as are necessary or advisable in order to accomplish the intent of the Transaction Documents, including without limitation, execution of a Request to release a lien against the original Collateral within five (5) Trading Days after written request from Buyer. The intent of the parties is that fair market value of the Collateral will be equal to the outstanding balances of the Buyer Trust Deed Notes.  To the extent the fair market value of the Collateral is less than the total outstanding balance of all the Buyer Trust Deed Notes, then the Collateral will be deemed to only secure those Buyer Trust Deed Notes with an aggregate outstanding balance that is less than or equal to the fair market value of the Collateral, applied in numerical order of the Buyer Trust Deed Notes. By way of example only, if the fair market value of the Collateral is determined by appraisal to be $500,000, then the Collateral will be deemed to secure only Buyer Trust Deed Note #1 and Buyer Trust Deed Note #2.  If the Collateral is subsequently appraised for $1,000,000, then the Collateral will automatically be deemed to secure all of the Buyer Trust Deed Notes.


 


(e) Provided that the Buyer Notes have not been paid in full or offset by either the Company or the Buyer in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents, the Buyer agrees to collateralize the Buyer Notes after the Buyer Trust Deed Notes have been paid or offset in full.


 


2.2. Form of Payment; Delivery of Securities.  The purchase and sale of the Securities shall take place at a closing (the “Closing”) to be held at the offices of the Buyer on the Closing Date.  At the Closing, the Company will deliver the Transaction Documents to the Buyer against delivery by the Buyer to the Company of the Initial Cash Purchase Price and the Buyer Trust Deed Notes and the Buyer Notes.


 


2.3. Initial Cash Purchase Price. The Note carries an original issue discount of $200,000.00 (the “OID”).  In addition, the Company agrees to pay $15,000.00 ($5,000.00 of which has been previously paid to the Buyer) to the Buyer to cover the Buyer’s legal fees, accounting costs, due diligence, monitoring and other transaction costs incurred in connection with the purchase and sale of the Securities, $10,000.00 of which amount is included in the initial principal balance of the Note (the “Transaction Expenses”).  The Initial Cash Purchase Price, therefore, shall be $500,000.00, computed as follows: $2,210,000.00 less the OID, less the $10,000 in unpaid Transaction Expenses, less the sum of initial principal amounts of the Buyer Trust Deed Notes and the Buyer Notes.


 


3. BUYER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Buyer represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees with, the Company, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, as follows:


 


3.1. Binding Obligation. The Transaction Documents to which the Buyer is a party, and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, have been duly and validly authorized by the Buyer.  This Agreement has been executed and delivered by the Buyer, and this Agreement is, and each of the other Transaction Documents to which the Buyer is a party, when executed and delivered by the Buyer (if necessary), will be valid and binding obligations of the Buyer enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject as to enforceability only to general principles of equity and to bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium and other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.


 


3.2. Accredited Investor Status. The Buyer is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Regulation D.  The Buyer is purchasing the Securities for investment purposes and not for the purposes of distributing such Securities to the Public.  The Buyer is a sophisticated investor and has such knowledge and experience as to be able to evaluate the risks associated with the Securities without the assistance of a Purchaser representative.  The Buyer acknowledges that the Company has made no representations and warranties, other than as set forth in the Transaction Documents.


 


3.3. Value of Collateral.  The Trust Deed shall give the Company a valid, first priority security interest in the underlying Collateral, which Collateral has a fair market value equal to the principal amount of the Note.


 


4. COMPANY REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Company represents and warrants to the Buyer as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date that:


 


4.1. Rights of Others Affecting the Transactions.  There are no preemptive rights of any stockholder of the Company, as such, to acquire the Securities. No other party has a currently exercisable right of first refusal which would be applicable to any or all of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.


 


4.2. Status.  The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Incorporation and has the requisite corporate power to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted.  The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, other than those jurisdictions in which the failure to so qualify would not have or result in a Material Adverse Effect.  The Company has registered its stock under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), and is obligated to file reports pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act. The Company has not taken any action designed to terminate, or which to its knowledge is likely to have the effect of, terminating the registration of the Common Stock under the 1934 Act, nor has the Company received any notification that the SEC is contemplating terminating such registration.  The Common Stock is quoted on the Principal Trading Market.  The Company has received no notice, either oral or written, with respect to the continued eligibility of the Common Stock for quotation on the Principal Trading Market, and the Company has maintained all requirements on its part for the continuation of such quotation. Subsequent to the delisting of the Company from NYSE AMEX in 2012, the Company has not received notice from the Principal Trading Market on which the Common Stock is or has been listed or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such Principal Trading Market. The Company is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue to be, in compliance with all such listing and maintenance requirements.


 


4.3. Authorized Shares.


 


(a) The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 20,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share, of which only 65 shares (designated Preferred Stock Series A) are outstanding, and 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, of which approximately 8,086,398 are outstanding. Of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, approximately 397,026 shares are beneficially owned by Affiliates of the Company.


 


(b) Other than as set forth in the Company’s SEC Documents, there are no outstanding securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock, whether such conversion is currently exercisable or exercisable only upon some future date or the occurrence of some event in the future.


 


(c) All issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable. After considering all other commitments that may require the issuance of Common Stock, the Company has sufficient authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock as may be necessary to effect the issuance of the Shares on the Closing Date, were (1) the Note issued and fully converted on that date and (2) all Warrants issued and fully exercised on that date.


 


(d) The Shares have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company, and, when issued (1) on conversion of, or in payment of interest on the Note in accordance with the terms thereof, (2) upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with the terms thereof, or (3) at the Closing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, as applicable, will have been duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free from all taxes, liens, claims, pledges, mortgages, restrictions, obligations, security interests and encumbrances of any kind, nature and description, and will not subject the Holder thereof to personal liability by reason of being a Holder.


 


(e) The Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares are enforceable against the Company and the Company presently has no claims or defenses of any nature whatsoever with respect to the Conversion Shares or the Warrant Shares.


 


4.4. Transaction Documents and Stock. This Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents, and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, have been duly and validly authorized by the Company.

4.5. Non-contravention. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents by the Company, the issuance of the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, and the consummation by the Company of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Note, the Security Agreement, the Warrants, and the other Transaction Documents do not and will not conflict with or result in a breach by the Company of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under (i) the Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws of the Company, each as currently in effect, (ii) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, or other material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it or any of its properties or assets are bound, including any listing agreement for the Common Stock except as herein set forth, or (iii) to its knowledge, any existing applicable law, rule, or regulation or any applicable decree, judgment, or order of any court, United States federal or state regulatory body, administrative agency, or other governmental body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties or assets, except such conflict, breach or default which would not have or result in a Material Adverse Effect.


 


4.6. Approvals.  No authorization, approval or consent of any court, governmental body, regulatory agency, self-regulatory organization, or stock exchange or market or the stockholders of the Company is required to be obtained by the Company for the issuance and sale of the Securities to the Buyer as contemplated by this Agreement, except such authorizations, approvals and consents as have been obtained.


 


4.7. Filings; Financial Statements.  None of the Company’s SEC Documents contained, at the time they were filed, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Company has filed all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by the Company with the SEC under the 1934 Act on a timely basis or has received a valid extension of such time of filing and has filed any such report, schedule, form, statement or other document prior to the expiration of any such extension.  As of their respective dates, the financial statements of the Company included in the Company’s SEC Documents complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto.  Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto, or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company as of the dates thereof and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments).  No other information provided by or on behalf of the Company to the Buyer which is not included in the Company’s SEC Documents, including, without limitation, information referred to in this Agreement, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstance under which they are or were made, not misleading.


 


4.8. Absence of Certain Changes.  Since the Last Audited Date, there has been no Material Adverse Effect, except as disclosed in the Company’s SEC Documents. Since the Last Audited Date, except as provided in the Company’s SEC Documents, the Company has not (i) incurred or become subject to any material liabilities (absolute or contingent) except liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices; (ii) discharged or satisfied any material lien or encumbrance or paid any material obligation or liability (absolute or contingent), other than current liabilities paid in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices; (iii) declared or made any payment or distribution of cash or other property to stockholders with respect to its capital stock, or purchased or redeemed, or made any agreements to purchase or redeem, any shares of its capital stock; (iv) sold, assigned or transferred any other material tangible assets, or canceled any material debts owed to the Company by any third party or material claims of the Company against any third party, except in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices; (v) waived any rights of material value, whether or not in the ordinary course of business, or suffered the loss of any material amount of existing business; (vi) made any increases in employee compensation, except in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices; or (vii) experienced any material problems with labor or management in connection with the terms and conditions of their employment.

4.10. Absence of Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board or body pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company before or by any governmental authority or non-governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality or any other person, wherein an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding would have a Material Adverse Effect or which would adversely affect the validity or enforceability of, or the authority or ability of the Company to perform its obligations under, any of the Transaction Documents.  The Company is not aware of any valid basis for any such claim that (either individually or in the aggregate with all other such events and circumstances) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no outstanding or unsatisfied judgments, orders, decrees, writs, injunctions or stipulations to which the Company is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound, that involve the transactions contemplated herein or that, alone or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


4.11. Absence of Events of Default.  Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of or in default with respect to (i) its Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws or other organizational documents, each as currently in effect, or any material judgment, order, writ, decree, statute, rule or regulation applicable to such entity; or (ii) any material mortgage, indenture, agreement, instrument or contract to which such entity is a party or by which it or any of its properties or assets are bound (nor is there any waiver in effect which, if not in effect, would result in such a violation or default), except such breach or default which would not have or result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Each of the Company and its executive officers and directors is aware that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the execution of this Agreement, the conversion of the Note and exercise of the Warrants, or pursuant to the other terms of the Transaction Documents may have a dilutive effect on the ownership interests of the other stockholders (and Persons having the right to become stockholders) of the Company.  The Company specifically acknowledges that its obligation to issue (i) the Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Note, and (ii) the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants, is binding upon the Company and enforceable regardless of the dilution such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other stockholders of the Company, and the Company will honor such obligations, including honoring every Conversion Notice and Notice of Exercise, unless the Company is subject to an injunction (which injunction was not sought by the Company or any of its directors or executive officers) prohibiting the Company from doing so.


 


4.16. Fees to Brokers, Placement Agents and Others.  The Company has taken no action which would give rise to any claim by any Person for a brokerage commission, placement agent or finder’s fees or similar payments by the Buyer relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.  Except for such fees arising as a result of any agreement or arrangement entered into by the Buyer without the knowledge of the Company (a “Buyer’s Fee”), the Buyer shall have no obligation with respect to such fees or with respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type contemplated in this subsection that may be due in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.  The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the Buyer, its employees, officers, directors, stockholders, managers, agents, and partners, and their respective Affiliates, from and against all claims, losses, damages, costs (including the costs of preparation and attorneys’ fees) and expenses suffered in respect of any such claimed or existing fees (other than a Buyer’s Fee, if any).


 


4.17. Disclosure.  All information relating to or concerning the Company set forth in the Transaction Documents or in the Company’s SEC Documents or other public filings provided by or on behalf of the Company to the Buyer is true and correct in all material respects and the Company has not omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.  No event or circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to the Company or its business, properties, prospects, operations or financial conditions, which under applicable laws, rules or regulations, requires public disclosure or announcement by the Company.


 


4.18. Confirmation.  The Company agrees that, if, to the knowledge of the Company, any events occur or circumstances exist prior to Closing which would make any of the Company’s representations or warranties set forth herein materially untrue or materially inaccurate as of such date, the Company shall immediately notify the Buyer in writing prior to such date of such events or circumstances, specifying which representations or warranties are affected and the reasons therefor.


 


4.19. Title. The Company and the Subsidiaries, if applicable, own and have good and marketable title in fee simple absolute to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all their respective real properties and good title to their other respective assets and properties, subject to no liens, claims or encumbrances except as have been disclosed to the Buyer.


 


4.20. Intellectual Property.


 


(a) Ownership.  The Company owns or possesses or can obtain on commercially reasonable terms sufficient legal rights to all patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets, licenses (software or otherwise), information, know-how, inventions, discoveries, published and unpublished works of authorship, processes and any and all other proprietary rights (“Intellectual Property”) necessary to the business of the Company as presently conducted, the lack of which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Except for agreements with its own employees or consultants, standard end-user license agreements, support/maintenance agreements and agreements entered in the ordinary course of the Company’s business, there are no outstanding options, licenses or agreements relating to the Intellectual Property of the Company, and the Company is not bound by or a party to any options, licenses or agreements with respect to the Intellectual Property of any other person or entity.  The Company has not received any written communication alleging that the Company has violated or, by conducting its business as currently conducted, would violate any of the Intellectual Property of any other person or entity, nor is the Company aware of any basis therefor.  The Company is not obligated to make any payments by way of royalties, fees or otherwise to any owner or licensor of or claimant to any Intellectual Property with respect to the use thereof in connection with the present conduct of its business other than in the ordinary course of its business.  There are no agreements, understandings, instruments, contracts, judgments, orders or decrees to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound which involve indemnification by the Company with respect to infringements of Intellectual Property, other than in the ordinary course of its business.


 


(b) No Breach by Employees.  The Company is not aware that any of its employees is obligated under any contract or other agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative agency, that would materially interfere with the use of his or her efforts to promote the interests of the Company or that would conflict with the Company’s business as presently conducted.  Neither the execution nor delivery of this Agreement, nor the carrying on of the Company’s business by the employees of the Company, nor the conduct of the Company’s business as presently conducted, will, to the Company’s knowledge, conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or instrument under which any such employee is now obligated.  The Company does not believe it is or will be necessary to use any inventions of any of its employees made prior to their employment by the Company of which it is aware.


 


4.21. Opinion. The Company shall accept an opinion letter prepared by legal counsel of Buyer’s choosing (the “Opinion Letter”), stating that (i) the Company is not a “Shell Company” as such term is defined in Rule 144, (ii) the Company has not been a Shell Company for the preceding twelve (12) months, (iii) the Company is in compliance with all filing requirements under Rule 144 as of the date hereof, and (iv) the Shares may be sold by the Buyer without any restrictions pursuant to Rule 144, so long as the applicable holding period specified by Rule 144 is satisfied, and, as applicable, the Company shall give instructions to its Transfer Agent to issue shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Note and/or exercise of the Warrants based upon or otherwise consistent with such Opinion Letter.


 


4.22. Environmental Matters.


 


(a) No Violation. There are, to the Company’s knowledge, with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any predecessor of the Company, no past or present violations of Environmental Laws (as defined below), releases of any material into the environment, actions, activities, circumstances, conditions, events, incidents, or contractual obligations which may give rise to any common law environmental liability or any liability under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 or similar federal, state, local or foreign laws and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice with respect to any of the foregoing, nor is any action pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened in connection with any of the foregoing. The term “Environmental Laws” means all federal, state, local or foreign laws relating to pollution or protection of human health or the environment (including, without limitation, ambient air, surface water, groundwater, land surface or subsurface strata), including, without limitation, laws relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases of chemicals, pollutants contaminants, or toxic or hazardous substances or wastes (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”) into the environment, or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of Hazardous Materials, as well as all authorizations, codes, decrees, demands or demand letters, injunctions, judgments, licenses, notices or notice letters, orders, permits, plans or regulations issued, entered, promulgated or approved thereunder.


 


(b) No Hazardous Materials. Other than those that are or were stored, used or disposed of in compliance with applicable law, no Hazardous Materials are contained on or about any real property currently owned, leased or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and no Hazardous Materials were released on or about any real property previously owned, leased or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries during the period the property was owned, leased or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except in the normal course of the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ business.


 


(c) No Storage Tanks.  There are no underground storage tanks on or under any real property owned, leased or used by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that are not in compliance with applicable law.


 


5. CERTAIN COVENANTS AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS.


 


5.1. Covenants and Acknowledgements of the Buyer.


 


(a) Transfer Restrictions.  The Buyer acknowledges that (1) the Securities have not been and are not being registered under the provisions of the 1933 Act and, except as included in an effective Registration Statement, the Shares have not been and are not being registered under the 1933 Act, and may not be transferred unless (A) subsequently registered thereunder, or (B) the Buyer shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory in form, scope and substance to the Company, to the effect that the Securities to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from registration under the 1933 Act; (2) any sale of the Securities made in reliance on Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of such Rule and further, if such Rule is not applicable, any resale of such Securities under circumstances in which the seller, or the Person through whom the sale is made, may be deemed to be an underwriter, as that term is used in the 1933 Act, may require compliance with some other exemption under the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and (3) except as otherwise provided herein, neither the Company nor any other Person is under any obligation to register the Securities under the 1933 Act or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder.


 


(b) Restrictive Legend.  The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that, until such time as the relevant Securities have been registered under the 1933 Act, and may be sold in accordance with an effective Registration Statement, or until such Securities can otherwise be sold without restriction, whichever is earlier, the certificates and other instruments representing any of the Securities shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of any such Securities):


 


THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR SALE IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.







5.2. Covenants, Acknowledgements and Agreements of the Company. As a condition to the Buyer’s obligation to purchase the Securities contemplated by this Agreement, and as a material inducement for the Buyer to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, until all of the Company’s obligations hereunder and the Note are paid and performed in full or within the timeframes otherwise specifically set forth below, the Company shall comply with the following covenants:


 


(a) Filings.  From the date hereof until the date that is six (6) months after all the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares either have been sold by the Buyer, or may permanently be sold by the Buyer without any restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 (the “Registration Period”), the Company shall  timely make all filings required to be made by it under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, Rule 144 or any United States state securities laws and regulations thereof applicable to the Company or by the rules and regulations of the Principal Trading Market, and such filings shall conform to the requirements of applicable laws, regulations and government agencies, and, unless such filings are publicly available on the SEC’s EDGAR system (via the SEC’s web site at no additional charge), the Company shall provide a copy thereof to the Buyer promptly after such filings. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company agrees to file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to the Buyer promptly after such filing. Additionally, within four (4) Trading Days following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall file a current report on Form 8-K describing the terms of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents in the form required by the 1934 Act and approved by the Buyer (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) and attaching the material Transaction Documents as exhibits to such filing.  Additionally, the Company shall furnish to the Buyer, so long as the Buyer owns any Securities, promptly upon request, (1) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act, (2) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and (3) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Buyer to sell such Securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration at any time such securities would otherwise be eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144.


 


(b) Reporting Status.  So long as the Buyer beneficially owns Securities and for at least twenty (20) Trading Days thereafter, the Company shall file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to Sections 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act, and shall take all reasonable action under its control to ensure that adequate current public information with respect to the Company, as required in accordance with Rule 144, is publicly available, and shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would permit such termination.


 


(c) Listing.  The Common Stock shall be listed or quoted for trading on any of (1) NYSE Amex, (2) the New York Stock Exchange, (3) the Nasdaq Global Market, (4) the Nasdaq Capital Market, (5) the OTC Bulletin Board, or (6) the OTCQX or OTCQB. The Company shall promptly secure the listing of all of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares upon each national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, upon which the Common Stock is then listed (subject to official notice of issuance) and shall maintain such listing of all securities from time to time issuable under the terms of the Transaction Documents. The Company shall comply in all material respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Principal Trading Market and/or the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) or any successor thereto, as the case may be, applicable to it at least through the date which is sixty (60) calendar days after the later of (1) the date on which the Note has been converted or paid in full, or (2) the date on which the Warrants have been exercised in full.


 


(d) Use of Proceeds.  The Company shall use the net proceeds received hereunder for working capital and general corporate purposes only; provided, however, the Company will not use such proceeds to pay fees payable (1) to any broker or finder relating to the offer and sale of the Note and/or the Warrants, or (2) to any other party relating to any financing transaction effected prior to the Closing Date.


 


(e) Publicity, Filings, Releases, Etc.  Neither party shall disseminate any information relating to the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, including issuing any press releases, holding any press conferences or other forums, or filing any reports (collectively, “Publicity”), without giving the other party reasonable advance notice and an opportunity to comment on the contents thereof.  Neither party will include in any such Publicity any statement or statements or other material to which the other party reasonably objects, unless in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the party proposing such statement, such statement is legally required to be included.  In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company shall provide to the Buyer’s Counsel a draft of the first current report on Form 8-K or a quarterly or annual report on Form 10-Q or 10-K, as the case may be, intended to be made with the SEC which refers to the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby as soon as practicable (but at least two (2) Trading Days before such filing will be made) and shall not include in such filing (or any other filing filed before then) any statement or statements or other material to which the Buyer reasonably objects, unless in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Company such statement is legally required to be included.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the parties hereby consents to the inclusion of the text of the Transaction Documents in filings made with the SEC (but any descriptive text accompanying or part of such filing shall be subject to the other provisions of this subsection).


 


(f) FINRA Rule 5110. In the event that the Corporate Financing Rule 5110 of FINRA is or becomes applicable to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or to the sale by a Holder of any of the Securities, then the Company shall, to the extent required by such rule, timely make any filings and cooperate with any broker or selling stockholder in respect of any consents, authorizations or approvals that may be necessary for FINRA to timely and expeditiously permit the Holder to sell the Securities.


 


(g) Keeping of Records and Books of Account. The Company shall keep and cause each Subsidiary to keep adequate records and books of account, in which complete entries shall be made in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, reflecting all financial transactions of the Company and such Subsidiaries, and in which, for each fiscal year, all proper reserves for depreciation, depletion, obsolescence, amortization, taxes, bad debts and other purposes in connection with its business shall be made.


 


(h) Corporate Existence.  The Company shall (1) do all things necessary to remain duly qualified and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the character of the properties owned or leased by it or in which the transaction of its business makes such qualification necessary; (2) preserve and keep in full force and effect all licenses or similar qualifications required by it to engage in its business in all jurisdictions in which it is at the time so engaged; (3) continue to engage in business of the same general type as conducted as of the date hereof; and (4) continue to conduct its business substantially as now conducted or as otherwise permitted hereunder.


 


(i) Taxes.  The Company shall pay and discharge promptly when due all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its income or profits or in respect of its property before the same shall become delinquent or in default, which, if unpaid, might reasonably be expected to give rise to liens or charges upon such properties or any part thereof, unless, in each case, the validity or amount thereof is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and the Company has maintained adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP.


 


(j) Compliance. The Company shall comply in all material respects with all federal, state and local laws and regulations, orders, judgments, decrees, injunctions, rules, regulations, permits, licenses, authorizations and requirements (collectively, “Requirements”) of all governmental bodies, insurers, departments, commissions, boards, courts, authorities, officials or officers which are applicable to the Company, its business, operations, or any of its properties, except where the failure to so comply would not have a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that nothing provided herein shall prevent the Company from contesting in good faith the validity or the application of any Requirements.


 


(k) Section 3(a)(9) and 3(a)(10) Transaction Consent Right.  The Company will not enter into any transaction or arrangement structured in accordance with, based upon, or related or pursuant to, in whole or in part, Section 3(a)(9) or Section 3(a)(10) of the 1933 Act without obtaining the prior express written consent of the Buyer.


 


(l) Litigation.  From and after the date hereof and until all of the Company’s obligations hereunder and the Note are paid and performed in full and the Warrants are exercised in full, the Company shall notify the Buyer in writing, promptly upon learning thereof, of any litigation or administrative proceeding commenced or threatened against the Company involving a claim in excess of $100,000.00.


 


(m) Performance of Obligations.  The Company shall promptly and in a timely fashion perform and honor all demands, notices, requests and obligations that exist or may arise under the Transaction Documents.


 


(n) Failure to Make Timely Filings.  The Company agrees that, if the Company fails to timely file (with a filing pursuant to, and within the periods permitted by, Rule 12b-25 deemed to be timely filed) on the SEC’s EDGAR system any information required to be filed by it, whether on a Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, Form 8-K, Proxy Statement or otherwise so as to be deemed a “reporting issuer” with current public information under the 1934 Act, the Company shall be liable to pay to the Holder, in addition to any other available remedies in the Transaction Documents or at law or equity, an amount based on the following schedule (where “No. Trading Days Late” refers to each Trading Day after the latest due date for the relevant filing):

The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this subsection in immediately available funds upon demand by the Holder; provided, however, that the Holder making the demand may specify that the payment shall be made in shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Price (as defined in and determined pursuant to the Note) applicable to the date of such demand.  If the payment is to be made in shares of Common Stock, such shares shall be considered Conversion Shares under the Note, with the “Delivery Date” for such shares being determined from the date of such demand. The demand for payment of such amount in shares of Common Stock shall be considered a “Conversion Notice” under the Note (but the delivery of such shares shall be in payment of the amount contemplated by this subsection and not in payment of any principal or interest on the Note).


 


(o) Authorized Shares.  The Company shall take all action necessary to, at all times, have authorized and reserved for the purpose of issuance: (i) the higher of such number of shares of Common Stock (1) as shall be necessary to effect the full conversion of the Note as of the relevant date of determination, multiplied by two, and (2) equal to two times the Outstanding Balance (as defined in the Note) of the Note as of the relevant date of determination, divided by the then-current Conversion Price (as defined in and determined pursuant to the Note) (the “Note Share Reserve”); plus (ii) the higher of such number of shares of Common Stock (1) as shall be necessary to effect the complete exercise of all of the Warrants as of the relevant date of determination, multiplied by two, and (2) equal to the number of Delivery Shares (as defined in the Warrants) that would be required to be delivered to the Holder in order to effect a complete exercise of all of the Warrants pursuant to the terms thereof as of the relevant date of determination (the “Warrants Share Reserve,” and together with the Note Share Reserve, the “Share Reserve”).  If at any time the Share Reserve is less than required herein at such time, the Company shall immediately increase the Share Reserve in an amount equal to no less than the deficiency.  If the Company does not have sufficient authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock available to increase the Share Reserve, the Company shall call a special meeting of the stockholders as soon as practicable after such occurrence, but in no event later than thirty (30) calendar days after such occurrence (and hold such meeting as soon as practicable thereafter, but in no event later than thirty (30) calendar days after calling the meeting as required above), for the sole purpose of increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. The Company’s management shall recommend to the Company’s stockholders to vote in favor of increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock.  Management shall also vote all of its shares in favor of increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause such additional shares of Common Stock to be authorized so as to comply with the requirements of this Section.  All calculations with respect to determining the Note Share Reserve and the Warrants Share Reserve shall be made without regard to any limitations on conversion of the Note or exercise of any of the Warrants).


 


(p) DTC and DWAC Eligibility. For so long as (1) any portion of the Note remains outstanding, or (2) any portion of any of the Warrants remains unexercised, the Company shall use its best efforts to (i) maintain eligibility to participate in The Depository Trust Company’s Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, and (ii) maintain Deposit Withdrawal at Custodian (“DWAC”) eligibility.


 


(q) Anti-Dilution Certification.  For so long as any portion of the Note remains outstanding, the Company shall deliver to the Buyer on or before the 10th day of each month a certification in the form attached hereto as ANNEX XXIV whereby the Company shall notify the Buyer of any events that occurred during the previous month that trigger anti-dilution protection or other adjustments to the applicable Conversion Price (as defined in and determined pursuant to the Note) or Exercise Price (as defined in and determined pursuant to the Warrants) (collectively, “Adjustment Events”) under the Note and the Warrants, as applicable, or, if no Adjustment Events occurred, certifying to the Buyer that no Adjustment Events occurred during the previous month.


 


(r) [intentionally omitted]


 


(s) Change in Nature of Business. The Company shall not directly or indirectly engage in any material line of business substantially different from those lines of business conducted by or publicly contemplated to be conducted by the Company on the date of this Agreement or any business substantially related or incidental thereto. The Company shall not, and the Company shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to not, directly or indirectly, modify its or their corporate structure or purpose if such modification may have a material adverse effect on any rights of, or benefits to, the Holder under any of the Transaction Documents.


 


(t) Maintenance of Properties, Etc. The Company shall maintain and preserve, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain and preserve, all of its properties which are necessary or useful in the proper conduct of its business, in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and comply, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply, at all times with the provisions of all leases to which it is a party as lessee or under which it occupies property, so as to prevent any loss or forfeiture thereof or thereunder.


 


(u) Maintenance of Insurance.  The Company shall maintain, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain, insurance with responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations (including, without limitation, comprehensive general liability, hazard, rent and business interruption insurance) with respect to its properties (including all real properties leased or owned by it) and business, in such amounts and covering such risks as is required by any governmental authority having jurisdiction with respect thereto or as is carried generally in accordance with sound business practice by companies in similar businesses similarly situated.


 


(v) Restriction on Redemption. The Company shall not, directly or indirectly, redeem or repurchase its capital stock without the prior express written consent of the Holder.


 


(w) Restriction on Transfer of Assets. The Company shall not, and the Company shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to not, directly or indirectly, sell, lease, license, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of any assets or rights of the Company or any Subsidiary owned or hereafter acquired, whether in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, other than (A) sales, leases, licenses, assignments, transfers, conveyances and other dispositions of such assets or rights supported by fair market value consideration as determined in the reasonable discretion of the board of directors or the Chief Executive Officer of the Company or its Subsidiary, as the case may be, or (B) sales of inventory in the ordinary course of business.


 


(x) Existence of Liens. The Company shall not, and the Company shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to not, directly or indirectly, allow, grant, or suffer to exist any mortgage, lien, pledge, charge, security interest or other encumbrance (collectively, “Liens”), upon the property or assets (including accounts and contract rights) owned by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, other than Permitted Liens.


 


(y) Intellectual Property.  The Company shall not, and the Company shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to encumber or allow any Liens on, any of its copyright rights, copyright applications, copyright registrations and like protections in each work of authorship and derivative work, whether published or unpublished, any patents, patent applications and like protections, including improvements, divisions, continuations, renewals, reissues, extensions, and continuations-in-part of the same, trademarks, service marks and, to the extent permitted under applicable law, any applications therefor, whether registered or not, and the goodwill of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries connected with and symbolized thereby, know-how, operating manuals, trade secret rights, rights to unpatented inventions, and any claims for damage by way of any past, present, or future infringement of any of the foregoing, other than Permitted Liens.


 


(z) Transactions with Affiliates.  The Company shall not, nor shall it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into, renew, extend or be a party to, any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, the purchase, sale, lease, transfer or exchange of property or assets of any kind or the rendering of services of any kind) with any Affiliate, except in the ordinary course of business in a manner and to an extent consistent with past practice and necessary or desirable for the prudent operation of its business, for fair consideration and on terms no less favorable to it or its Subsidiaries than would be obtainable in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a person that is not an Affiliate thereof.


 


(aa) Certain Negative Covenants of the Company.  From and after the date hereof and until all of the Company’s obligations hereunder and the Note are paid and performed in full, the Company shall not:


 


(i) Incur any new indebtedness for borrowed money that includes an equity conversion component; provided, however, that if the Company is in breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement, then Buyer shall also have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to disallow any new indebtedness for borrowed money without the prior written consent of Buyer.


 


(ii) Transfer, assign, sell, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise alienate or encumber any of the Buyer Trust Deed Notes or the Buyer Notes in any way without the prior written consent of the Buyer.


 


(iii) Enter into any transaction, including, without limitation, any purchase, sale, lease or exchange of property or the rendering of any service, with any Affiliate of the Company, or amend or modify any agreement related to any of the foregoing, except on terms that are no less favorable, in any material respect, than those obtainable from any person or entity who is not an Affiliate of the Company.


 


(bb) Transfer Agent Reserve.  From and after the date hereof and until all of the Company’s obligations hereunder and the Note are paid and performed in full and the Warrants are exercised in full (or otherwise expired):


 


(i) the Company shall at all times require its Transfer Agent to establish a reserve of shares of authorized but unissued Common Stock in an amount not less than the Share Reserve (the “Transfer Agent Reserve”);


 


(ii) the Company shall require its Transfer Agent to hold the Transfer Agent Reserve for the exclusive benefit of the Holder and shall authorize the Transfer Agent to issue the shares of Common Stock held in the Transfer Agent Reserve to the Holder only (subject to subsection (iii) immediately below);


 


(iii) the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to agree that when the Transfer Agent issues shares of Common Stock to the Holder pursuant to the Transaction Documents, the Transfer Agent will not issue such shares from the Transfer Agent Reserve, unless such is pre-approved in writing by the Holder;


 


(iv) the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to agree that it will not reduce the Transfer Agent Reserve under any circumstances, unless such reduction is pre-approved in writing by the Holder;


 


(v) no less frequently than quarterly, the Company shall recalculate the Transfer Agent Reserve as of such time (each a “Transfer Agent Reserve Calculation”), and if additional shares of Common Stock are required to be added to the Transfer Agent Reserve pursuant to subsection (i) immediately above, the Company shall immediately give instructions to the Transfer Agent to cause the Transfer Agent to set aside and increase the Transfer Agent Reserve by the necessary number of shares of Common Stock; and


 


(vi) no less frequently than quarterly, the Company shall certify in writing to the Holder (1) the correctness of the Company’s Transfer Agent Reserve Calculation and (2) that either (A) the Company has instructed the Transfer Agent to increase the Transfer Agent Reserve in accordance with the terms hereof, or (B) there was no need to increase the Transfer Agent Reserve, in either case consistent with the Transfer Agent Reserve Calculation.


 


For the avoidance of any doubt, the requirements of this Section 5.2(bb) are material to this Agreement and any violation or breach thereof by the Company shall constitute a default under this Agreement.


 


6. TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.


 


6.1. The Company warrants that, with respect to the Securities, other than the stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 5.1(a) hereof, it will give the Transfer Agent no instructions inconsistent with the Transfer Agent Letter. Except as required by Sections 5.1(a) and 5.1(b) of this Agreement and the Transfer Agent Letter, the Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.  Nothing in this Section shall affect in any way the Buyer’s obligations and agreement to comply with all applicable securities laws upon resale of the Securities.  If the Buyer provides the Company with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that registration of a resale by the Buyer of any of the Securities in accordance with clause (1)(B) of Section 5.1(a) of this Agreement is not required under the 1933 Act or upon request from a Holder while an applicable Registration Statement is effective, the Company shall (except as provided in clause (2) of Section 5.1(a) of this Agreement) permit the transfer of the Securities and, in the case of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares, as may be applicable, use its best efforts to cause the Transfer Agent to promptly electronically transmit to the Holder via DWAC such Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares.  The Company specifically covenants that, as of the Closing Date, the Transfer Agent shall be (a) participating in the DWAC program, and (b) DWAC eligible.  Moreover, the Company shall notify the Buyer in writing if the Company at any time while the Holder holds Securities becomes aware of any plans of the Transfer Agent to terminate such DWAC participation or eligibility.  While any Holder holds Securities, the Company shall at all times after the Closing Date maintain a transfer agent which participates in the DWAC program and is DWAC eligible, and the Company shall not appoint any transfer agent which does not both participate in the DWAC program and maintain DWAC eligibility.  Nevertheless, if at any time that the Company receives a Conversion Notice the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DWAC program or the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares are not otherwise transferable via the DWAC program, then the Company shall instruct the Transfer Agent to immediately issue one or more certificates for Common Stock without legend in such name and in such denominations as specified by the Holder.  In the event the Transfer Agent is not DWAC eligible on any Conversion Date or Exercise Date (as defined in the Warrants), and consequently the Company issues Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares pursuant to a Conversion Notice or Notice of Exercise in certificated rather than electronic form, then in such event the amount set forth in Section 5.2(p) shall be added to the principal balance of the Note.


 


6.2. [intentionally omitted]


 


6.3. The Company shall assume any fees or charges of the Transfer Agent or Company Counsel regarding (i) the removal of a legend or stop transfer instructions with respect to the Securities, and (ii) the issuance of certificates or DWAC registration to or in the name of the Holder or the Holder’s designee or to a transferee as contemplated by an effective Registration Statement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it shall be the Holder’s responsibility to obtain all needed formal requirements (specifically: medallion guarantee and prospectus delivery compliance) in connection with any electronic issuance of shares of Common Stock.


 


6.4. The Holder of the Note shall be entitled to exercise its conversion privilege with respect to such Note, notwithstanding the commencement of any case under 11 U.S.C. §101 et seq. (the “Bankruptcy Code”).  In the event the Company is a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code, the Company hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted, any rights to relief it may have under 11 U.S.C. §362 in respect of such Holder’s exercise privilege.  The Company hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted, any rights to relief it may have under 11 U.S.C. §362 in respect of the conversion of such Note. The Company agrees, without cost or expense to such Holder, to take or to consent to any and all action necessary to effectuate relief under 11 U.S.C. §362.


 


7. CLOSING DATE.


 


7.1. The Closing Date shall occur on the date which is the first Trading Day after each of the conditions contemplated by Sections 8 and 9 hereof shall have either been satisfied or been waived by the party in whose favor such conditions run.


 


7.2. Closing of the purchase and sale of the Securities, which the parties anticipate shall occur concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, shall occur at the offices of the Buyer and shall take place no later than 3:00 P.M., Eastern Time, or on such day or such other time as is mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Buyer.

8.4. There shall not be in effect any law, rule or regulation prohibiting or restricting the transactions contemplated hereby, or requiring any consent or approval which shall not have been obtained.


 


9. CONDITIONS TO THE BUYER’S OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE. The Buyer’s obligation to purchase the Securities from the Company pursuant to this Agreement on the Closing Date is conditioned upon and subject to the fulfillment, on or prior to the Closing Date, of all of the following conditions, any of which may be waived in whole or in part by the Buyer:

9.7. There shall not be in effect any law, rule or regulation prohibiting or restricting the transactions contemplated hereby, or requiring any consent or approval which shall not have been obtained.


 


9.8. From and after the date hereof up to and including the Closing Date, each of the following conditions will remain in effect: (i) the trading of the Common Stock shall not have been suspended by the SEC or on the Principal Trading Market; (ii) trading in securities generally on the Principal Trading Market shall not have been suspended or limited; (iii) no minimum prices shall been established for securities traded on the Principal Trading Market; (iv) there shall not have been any material adverse change in any financial market; and (v) there shall not have occurred any Material Adverse Effect.


 


9.9. Except for any notices required or permitted to be filed after the Closing Date with certain federal and state securities commissions, the Company shall have obtained (i) all governmental approvals required in connection with the lawful sale and issuance of the Securities, and (ii) all third party approvals required to be obtained by the Company in connection with the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Company or the performance of the Company’s obligations thereunder.

10. INDEMNIFICATION.


 


10.1. The Company agrees to defend, indemnify and forever hold harmless the Buyer and its stockholders, directors, officers, managers, members, partners, Affiliates, employees, and agents, and each Buyer Control Person (collectively, the “Buyer Parties”) from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses incurred (collectively, “Damages”), joint or several, and any action in respect thereof to which the Buyer or any of the other Buyer Parties becomes subject, resulting from, arising out of or relating to any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or nonfulfillment of or failure to perform any covenant or agreement on the part of the Company contained in this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, as such Damages are incurred. The Buyer Parties with the right to be indemnified under this Section (the “Indemnified Parties”) shall have the right to defend any such action or proceeding with attorneys of their own selection, and the Company shall be solely responsible for all costs and expenses related thereto.  If the Indemnified Parties opt not to retain their own counsel, the Company shall defend any such action or proceeding with attorneys of its choosing at its sole cost and expense, provided that such attorneys have been pre-approved by the Indemnified Parties, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, and provided further that the Company may not settle any such action or proceeding without first obtaining the written consent of the Indemnified Parties.


 


10.2. The indemnity contained in this Agreement shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar rights of the Buyer Parties against the Company or others, and (ii) any other liabilities the Company may be subject to.


 


11. SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE.  The Company and the Buyer acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached.  It is accordingly agreed that the parties (including any Holder) shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, without the necessity to post a bond (except as specified below), to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof or thereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which any of them may be entitled by law or equity; provided, however, that the Company, upon receipt of a Conversion Notice or a Notice of Exercise concerning a Conversion Eligible Tranche (as defined in the Note) or a Warrant that is exercisable pursuant to its terms due to the Holder paying in full in cash the corresponding Buyer Trust Deed Note or Buyer Note, (a) may not fail or refuse to deliver shares or certificates representing shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Transaction Documents, or (b) if there is a claim for a breach by the Company of any other provision of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, the Company shall not raise as a legal defense to performance any claim that the Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with the Holder has violated any provision hereof or any of the other Transaction Documents or has engaged in any violation of law or any other claim or defense, in either case unless the Company has first posted a bond for one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the principal amount and, if relevant, then obtained a court order specifically directing it not to deliver such shares or certificates to the Holder. The proceeds of such bond shall be payable to the Holder to the extent that the Holder obtains judgment or its defense is recognized.  Such bond shall remain in effect until the completion of the relevant proceeding and, if the Holder appeals therefrom, until all such appeals are exhausted.  This provision is deemed incorporated by reference into each of the Transaction Documents as if set forth therein in full.


 


12. OWNERSHIP LIMITATION. If at any time after the Closing, the Buyer shall or would receive shares of Common Stock in payment of interest or principal under the Note or upon conversion of the Note or exercise of the Warrants, so that the Buyer would, together with other shares of Common Stock held by it or its Affiliates, hold by virtue of such action or receipt of additional shares of Common Stock a number of shares exceeding 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date (the “Maximum Percentage”), the Company shall not be obligated and shall not issue to the Buyer shares of Common Stock which would exceed the Maximum Percentage, but only until such time as the Maximum Percentage would no longer be exceeded by any such receipt of shares of Common Stock by the Buyer. Notwithstanding the forgoing, at such times that the Market Capitalization (defined below) of the Common Stock is less than $3,000,000.00, the term “4.99%” shall be replaced in the preceding sentence with “9.99%”. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Market Capitalization of the Common Stock” shall mean the product equal to (i) the average VWAP (as defined in the Note) of the Common Stock for the immediately preceding thirty (30) Trading Days, multiplied by (ii) the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reported on the Company’s most recently filed Form 10-Q or Form 10-K. The foregoing limitations are enforceable, unconditional and non-waivable and shall apply to all Affiliates and assigns of the Buyer. Additionally, if at any time after the Closing the Market Capitalization of the Common Stock falls below $3,000,000.00, then from that point on, for so long as the Buyer or its Affiliate owns Common Stock or rights to acquire Common Stock, the Company shall post, no less frequently than every thirty (30) calendar days, the then-current number of issued and outstanding shares of its capital stock to OTC markets.com so that such information is accessible on the following web page: http://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/ULUR/company-info.  The Company understands that its failure to so post its shares outstanding could result in economic loss to the Holder.  As compensation to the Holder for such loss, in addition to any other available remedies in the Transaction Documents or at law or equity, the Company shall pay the Holder a late fee of $500.00 per calendar day for each calendar day that the Company fails to comply with the foregoing obligation to post its shares outstanding.  As elected by the Holder, the amount of any late fees incurred under this Section 12 shall either be automatically added to the principal balance of the Note or otherwise paid by the Company in immediately available funds upon demand.


 


13. MISCELLANEOUS. The Company and the Buyer hereby agree that the provisions of this Section 13 shall apply to this Agreement and all of the Transaction Documents.


 


13.1. Governing Law and Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah for contracts to be wholly performed in such state and without giving effect to the principles thereof regarding the conflict of laws.

Nothing in this subsection shall affect or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.  THE COMPANY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.


 


13.2. No Waiver. Any forbearance or delay by a party in exercising any of its rights, remedies, and powers shall not be deemed to be a waiver thereof, and the exercise or partial exercise of any right, remedy, or power, and shall not preclude the further exercise of such right, remedy, and power, and the same shall continue in full force and effect until specifically waived by an instrument in writing executed by such party.

Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence and in Section 13.16, and except for the fees already paid and required to be paid by the Company to the Buyer pursuant to Section 2.3 for Buyer’s legal, administrative and due diligence expenses, the Company and the Buyer shall be responsible for paying such party’s own fees and expenses (including legal expenses) incurred in connection with the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.


 


13.12. Assignment by the Company.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the rights, interests or obligations of the Company hereunder may not be assigned, by operation of law or otherwise, in whole or in part, by the Company without the prior written consent of the Buyer, which consent may be withheld at the sole discretion of the Buyer; provided, however, that in the case of a merger, sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets or other corporate reorganization, the Buyer shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay such consent.


 


13.13. Advice of Counsel. In connection with the preparation of this Agreement and all other Transaction Documents, the Company, for itself and on behalf of its stockholders, officers, agents, and representatives, acknowledges and agrees that Buyer’s Counsel prepared initial drafts of this Agreement and all of the other Transaction Documents and acted as legal counsel to the Buyer only.

13.17. Replacement of the Note. Subject to any restrictions on or conditions to transfer set forth in the Note, the Holder of the Note, at its option, may in person or by duly authorized attorney surrender the same for exchange at the Company’s principal corporate office, and promptly thereafter and at the Company’s expense, except as provided below, receive in exchange therefor one or more new secured convertible promissory note(s), each in the principal amount requested by such Holder, dated the date to which interest shall have been paid on the Note so surrendered or, if no interest shall have yet been so paid, dated the date of the Note so surrendered and registered in the name of such person or persons as shall have been designated in writing by such Holder or its attorney for the same principal amount as the then unpaid principal amount of the Note so surrendered. As applicable, upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the Note and (i) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it; or (ii) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender thereof, the Company, at its expense, will execute and deliver in lieu thereof a new secured convertible promissory note executed in the same manner as the Note being replaced, in the same principal amount as the unpaid principal amount of such Note and dated the date to which interest shall have been paid on the Note or, if no interest shall have yet been so paid, dated the date of the Note.
