Each Buyer and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company and its management.

Each Buyer understands that its investment in the Units involves a high degree of risk.  Each Buyer is in a position regarding the Company, which, based upon employment, family relationship or economic bargaining power, enabled and enables such Buyer to obtain information from the Company in order to evaluate the merits and risks of this investment.  Each Buyer has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Units.

This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of each Buyer and is a valid and binding agreement of each Buyer, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies.

 

5.7                               General Solicitation.  The Buyer is not purchasing the Units as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding the Units published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar or any other general solicitation or general advertisement.

In this regard, the Company hereby confirms to the Transfer Agent and each Buyer that it can NOT and will NOT give instructions, including stop orders or otherwise, inconsistent with the terms of this Section 7.3(c) with regard to the matters contemplated herein, and that each Buyer shall have the absolute right to provide a copy of this Agreement to the Transfer Agent as evidence of the Company’s irrevocable authority for each Buyer and Transfer Agent to process issuances, transfers and legend removals upon instructions from each Buyer, or any counsel or representatives of each Buyer, in each case as specifically contemplated in this Section 7.3(c), without any further instructions, orders or confirmations from the Company.

 

(iii)                               Injunction and Specific Performance.  The Company specifically acknowledges and agrees that in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of any provision of this Section 7.3(c), each Buyer will be irreparably damaged and that damages at law would be an inadequate remedy if this Agreement were not specifically enforced.  Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any provision of this Section 7.3(c) by the Company, each Buyer shall be entitled to obtain, in addition to all other rights or remedies such Buyer may have, at law or in equity, an injunction restraining such breach, without being required to show any actual damage or to post any bond or other security, and/or to a decree for specific performance of the provisions of this Section 7.3(c).

 

7.4                               Use of Proceeds.  The Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Units for general corporate purposes, including general and administrative expenses, and for the repayment of any outstanding Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

 

7.5                               Fees and Expenses.  The Company agrees to pay to each Buyer (or any designee or agent of the Buyers), upon demand, or to otherwise be responsible for the payment of, any and all costs, fees, charges and expenses, including the reasonable fees, costs, expenses and disbursements of counsel for any Buyer, and of any experts and agents, which any Buyer may incur or which may otherwise be due and payable in connection with: (i) any documentary stamp taxes, intangibles taxes, recording fees, filing fees, or other similar taxes, fees or charges imposed by or due to any Governmental Authority in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents; (ii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of any Buyer under this Agreement or the Transaction Documents; or (iii) the failure by the Company to perform or observe any of the provisions of this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents.  The provisions of this Subsection shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

7.6                               Public Disclosure of Buyers.  The Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Buyer, or include the name of any Buyer in any filing with the SEC or any regulatory agency or Principal Trading Market, without the prior written consent of such Buyer except: (a) as required by federal securities law in connection with any registration statement contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement or (b) to the extent such disclosure is required by Law or Principal Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide Buyers with prior written notice of such disclosure permitted under this clause (b).

INDEMNIFICATION

 

10.1        Company’s Obligation to Indemnify.  In consideration of the Buyers’ execution and delivery of this Agreement and acquiring the Units hereunder, and in addition to all of the Company’s and Operating Sub’s other obligations under this Agreement, the Company and Operating Sub, jointly and severally, hereby agree to defend and indemnify each Buyer and each Buyer’s Affiliates and subsidiaries, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives, and the successors and assigns of each of them (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) and the Company and Operating Sub do hereby agree to hold the Buyer Indemnified Parties harmless, from and against any and all Claims made, brought or asserted against the Buyer Indemnified Parties, or any one of them, and the Company and Operating Sub hereby agree to pay or reimburse the Buyer Indemnified Parties for any and all Claims payable by any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties to any Person, including reasonable attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and expenses, court costs, settlement amounts, costs of investigation and interest thereon from the time such amounts are due at the highest non-usurious rate of interest permitted by applicable Law, through all negotiations, mediations, arbitrations, trial and appellate levels, as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to: (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company or Operating Sub in this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby; (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or Obligation of the Company or Operating Sub contained in this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby; or (iii) any Claims brought or made against the Buyer Indemnified Parties, or any one of them, by any Person and arising out of or resulting from the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or any other instrument, document or agreement executed pursuant hereto or thereto, any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Units, or the status of the Buyers of any of the Units, as a buyer and holder of such Units in the Company. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company and Operating Sub may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company and Operating Sub shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Claims covered hereby, which is permissible under applicable Law.  The Company will not be liable to any Buyer under this indemnity: (i) for any settlement by a Buyer in connection with any Claim effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; or (ii) to the extent, but only to the extent, that a Claim is attributable to any Buyer’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Buyer in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents.

 

ARTICLE XI

 

MATTERS RELATING TO THE BUYERS

 

11.1        Independent Nature of Buyers’ Obligations and Rights.  The obligations of each Buyer under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Buyer, and no Buyer shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Buyer under any one or more of the Transaction Documents.  The decision of each Buyer to purchase the Units pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by each such Buyer independently of any other Buyer and

 

22











 

independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or of its subsidiaries, if any, which may have been made or given by any other Buyer or any of their respective officers, directors, principals, employees, agents, counsel or representatives (collectively, including the Buyer in question, the “Buyer Representatives”).  No Buyer Representative shall have any liability to any other Buyer or the Company relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions, if any.  Each Buyer acknowledges that no other Buyer has acted as agent for such Buyer in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Buyer will be acting as agent of such other Buyer in connection with monitoring its investment in the Units or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents.  Each Buyer shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Buyer to be joined as an additional party in any Proceeding  for such purpose.  The Company and each of the Buyers acknowledge that, for reasons of administrative convenience the Company has elected to provide each of the Buyers with the same Transaction Documents for the purpose of closing a transaction with multiple Buyers and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Buyer.  In furtherance of the foregoing, and not in limitation thereof, the Company and the Buyers acknowledge that nothing contained in this Agreement or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Buyer pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute any two or more Buyers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Buyers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

 

11.2        Equal Treatment of Buyers.  No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Buyer to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents, unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the other Buyers parties to the Transaction Documents.

 

ARTICLE XII

 

TERMINATION

 

12.1        Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated prior to Closing (i) by written agreement of the Buyers and the Company or (ii) by either the Company or a Buyer (as to itself but no other Buyer) upon written notice to the other, if the Initial Closing shall not have taken place by 3:30 p.m. Eastern time on May 15, 2016, or such later date approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, but in no event later than June 15, 2016 (“Outside Closing Date”); provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 12.1 shall not be available to any party whose failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement has been the cause of or resulted in the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such time.

 

12.2        Consequences of Termination.  No termination of this Agreement shall release any party from any liability for breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.

13.2        Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, including the Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto and the documents delivered pursuant hereto, including the Transaction Documents, set forth all the promises, covenants, agreements, conditions and understandings between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, inducements or conditions, expressed or implied, oral or written, except as contained herein and in the Transaction Documents; provided, however, except as explicitly stated herein, nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall (or shall be deemed to) (i) have any effect on any agreements any Buyer has entered into with, or any instruments any Buyer has received from, the Company prior

 

24











 

to the date hereof with respect to any prior investment made by such Buyer in the Company or (ii) waive, alter, modify or amend in any respect any obligations of the Company, or any rights of or benefits to any Buyer or any other Person, in any agreement entered into prior to the date hereof between or among the Company and any Buyer, or any instruments any Buyer received from the Company prior to the date hereof, and all such agreements and instruments shall continue in full force and effect..

 

13.3        Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement, and any and all rights, duties and obligations hereunder, shall not be assigned, transferred, delegated or sublicensed by the Company without the prior written consent of each Buyer.

13.4        Binding Effect.  This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto, their respective successors and permitted assigns.

 

13.5        Amendment.  Except as specifically set forth herein, neither the Company nor any Buyer makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. For clarification purposes, the Recitals are part of this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Required Buyers.  Any amendment to any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 13.5 shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Securities, as applicable, provided that no such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it (1) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities then outstanding or (2) imposes any obligation or liability on any Buyer without such Buyer’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion).  No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party, provided that the Required Buyers may waive any provision of this Agreement, and any waiver of any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 13.5 shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Securities, as applicable, provided that no such waiver shall be effective to the extent that it (1) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities then outstanding (unless a party gives a waiver as to itself only) or (2) imposes any obligation or liability on any Buyer without such Buyer’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion).  No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents who are holders of Notes. The Company has not, directly or indirectly, made any agreements with any Buyers relating to the terms or conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents except as set forth in the Transaction Documents.  Without limiting the foregoing, the Company confirms that, except as set forth in this Agreement, no Buyer has made any commitment or promise or has any other obligation to provide any financing to the Company or otherwise. As a material inducement for each Buyer to enter into this Agreement, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that no due diligence or other investigation or inquiry conducted by a Buyer, any of its advisors or any of its representatives shall affect such Buyer’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. “Required Buyers” means Buyers holding and/or subscribing hereunder for a majority of the Shares and Warrant Shares, as group, represented by the Units sold or to be sold pursuant to this Agreement.

Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the State of New York, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.

If any one of the provisions contained in this Agreement, for any reason, shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and be construed as if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

 

13.15      No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person.

(a)                                 In the event that the Company and the Placement Agents advise the Escrow Agent in writing that the Offering has been terminated (the “Termination Notice”), the Escrow Agent shall promptly return the funds paid by each Purchaser to said Purchaser without interest or offset.

 

(b)                                 If prior to 3:00 P.M. Eastern time on the Termination Date, the Escrow Agent receives written notice, in the form of Exhibit A, attached hereto and made a part hereof, and signed by the Company and each Placement Agent, stating that the Termination Date has been extended to the Final Termination Date (the “Extension Notice”), then the Termination Date shall be so extended.

 

(c)                                  Provided that the Escrow Agent does not receive the Termination Notice in accordance with Section 2(a) and the Minimum Amount has been deposited into the Escrow Account on or prior to the later of the Termination Date or the date stated in the Extension Notice, if any, received by the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 2(b) above, the Escrow Agent shall, upon receipt of written instructions, in the form of Exhibit B, attached hereto and made a part hereof, or in a form and substance satisfactory to the Escrow Agent, received from the Company and each Placement Agent, pay the Escrow Funds in accordance with such written instructions, which instructions shall be limited to the payment of the Placement Agents’ fees and other offering expenses and the payment of the balance to the Company (each, a “Closing”).

(f)                                   If the Termination Date, Final Termination Date or any date that is a deadline under this Agreement for giving the Escrow Agent notice or instructions or for the Escrow Agent to take action is not a Business Day, then such date shall be the Business Day that immediately follows that date. A “Business Day” is any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a Bank holiday.

 

3.                                      Acceptance by Escrow Agent.  The Escrow Agent hereby accepts and agrees to perform its obligations hereunder, provided that:

 

(a)                                 The Escrow Agent may act in reliance upon any signature reasonably believed by it to be genuine, and may assume that any person who has been designated by a Placement Agent or the Company to give any written instructions, notice or receipt, or make any statements in connection with the provisions hereof has been duly authorized to do so.  The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to make inquiry as to the genuineness, accuracy or validity of any statements or instructions or any signatures on statements or instructions.  The names and true signatures of each individual authorized to act singly on behalf of the Company and the Placement Agents are stated in Schedule II, which is attached hereto and made a part hereof. The Company and each Placement Agent may each remove or add one or more of its authorized signers stated on Schedule II by notifying the Escrow Agent of such change in accordance with this Agreement, which notice shall include the true signature for any new authorized signatories.

 

(b)                                 The Escrow Agent may act relative hereto in reliance upon advice of counsel in reference to any matter connected herewith.  The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any mistake of fact or error of judgment or law, or for any acts or omissions of any kind, unless caused by its willful misconduct or gross negligence.

 

(c)                                  The Placement Agents and the Company agree to indemnify and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from and against any and all claims, losses, costs, liabilities, damages, suits, demands, judgments or expenses (including but not limited to reasonable attorney’s fees) claimed against or incurred by Escrow Agent arising out of or related, directly or indirectly, to this Escrow Agreement unless caused by the Escrow Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

(d)                                 In the event that the Escrow Agent shall be uncertain as to its duties or rights hereunder, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to (i) refrain from taking any action other than to keep safely the Escrow Funds until it shall be directed otherwise by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) deliver the Escrow Funds to a court of competent jurisdiction.

 

(e)                                  The Escrow Agent shall have no duty, responsibility or obligation to interpret or enforce the terms of any agreement other than Escrow Agent’s obligations hereunder, and the Escrow Agent shall not be required to make a request that any monies be delivered to the Escrow Account, it being agreed that the sole duties and responsibilities of the Escrow Agent shall be to the extent not prohibited by applicable law (i) to accept checks or other instruments for the payment of money and wire transfers delivered to the Escrow Agent for the Escrow Account and deposit said checks and wire transfers into the non-interest bearing Escrow Account, and (ii) to disburse or refrain from disbursing the Escrow Funds as stated above, provided that the checks received by the Escrow Agent have been collected and are available for withdrawal.

4.                                      Escrow Account Statements and Information. The Escrow Agent agrees to send to the Company and/or each Placement Agent a copy of the Escrow Account periodic statement, upon request in accordance with the Escrow Agent’s regular practices for providing account statements to its non-escrow clients, and to also provide the Company and/or each Placement Agent, or their designee, upon request other deposit account information, including Escrow Account balances, by telephone or by computer communication, to the extent practicable. The Company and each Placement Agent agrees to complete and sign all forms or agreements required by the Escrow Agent for that purpose.  The Company and each Placement Agent consents to the Escrow Agent’s release of such Escrow Account information to any of the individuals designated by Company or the Placement Agents, which designation has been signed in accordance with Section 3(a) by any of the persons in Schedule II.  Further, the Company and the Placement Agents have an option to receive e-mail notification of incoming and outgoing wire transfers.  If this e-mail notification service is requested and subsequently approved by the Escrow Agent, the Company and/or each Placement Agent agrees to provide a valid e-mail address and other information necessary to set-up this service and sign all forms and agreements required for such service.  The Company and each Placement Agent each consents to the Escrow Agent’s release of wire transfer information to the designated e-mail address(es).  The Escrow Agent’s liability for failure to comply with this section shall not exceed the cost of providing such information.

 

5.                                      Resignation and Termination of the Escrow Agent.  The Escrow Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of such resignation to the Placement Agents and the Company.  Upon providing such notice, the Escrow Agent shall have no further obligation hereunder except to hold as depository the Escrow Funds that it receives until the end of such thirty (30)-day period.  In such event, the Escrow Agent shall not take any action, other than receiving and depositing Purchasers checks and wire transfers in accordance with this Agreement, until the Company has designated a banking corporation, trust company, attorney or other person as successor.  Upon receipt of such written designation signed by the Placement Agents and the Company, the Escrow Agent shall promptly deliver the Escrow Funds to such successor and shall thereafter have no further obligations hereunder.  If such instructions are not received within thirty (30) days following the effective date of such resignation, then the Escrow Agent may deposit the Escrow Funds held by it pursuant to this Agreement with a clerk of a court of competent jurisdiction pending the appointment of a successor.  In either case provided for in this section, the Escrow Agent shall be relieved of all further obligations and released from all liability thereafter arising with respect to the Escrow Funds.

 

6.                                      Termination.  The Company and the Placement Agents may terminate the appointment of the Escrow Agent hereunder upon written notice specifying the date upon which such termination shall take effect, which date shall be at least thirty (30) days from the date of such notice.  In the event of such termination, the Company and the Placement Agents shall, within thirty (30) days of such notice, appoint a successor escrow agent and the Escrow Agent shall, upon receipt of written instructions signed by the Company and the Placement Agents, turn over to such successor escrow agent all of the Escrow Funds; provided, however, that if the Company and the Placement Agents fail to appoint a successor escrow agent within such thirty (30) day period, such termination notice shall be null and void and the Escrow Agent shall continue to be bound by all of the provisions hereof.  Upon receipt of the Escrow Funds, the successor escrow agent shall become the escrow agent hereunder and shall be bound by all of the provisions hereof and Escrow Agent shall be relieved of all further obligations and released from all liability thereafter arising with respect to the Escrow Funds and under this Agreement.

 

7.                                      Investment.  All funds received by the Escrow Agent shall be held only in non-interest bearing bank accounts at Escrow Agent.

8.                                      Compensation.  The Escrow Agent shall be entitled, for the duties to be performed by it hereunder, to a fee of $4,000.00, which fee shall be paid by the Company upon the signing of this Agreement. In addition, the Company shall be obligated to reimburse Escrow Agent for all fees, costs and expenses incurred or that become due in connection with this Agreement or the Escrow Account, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.  Neither the modification, cancellation, termination or rescission of this Agreement nor the resignation or termination of the Escrow Agent shall affect the right of the Escrow Agent to retain the amount of any fee which has been paid, or to be reimbursed or paid any amount which has been incurred or becomes due, prior to the effective date of any such modification, cancellation, termination, resignation or rescission.  To the extent the Escrow Agent has incurred any such expenses, or any such fee becomes due, prior to any closing, the Escrow Agent shall advise the Company and the Company shall direct all such amounts to be paid directly at any such closing.  The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to a fee of $1,000 in the event the Agreement is amended for any reason in accordance with Section 10(d).

 

9.                                      Notices.  All notices, requests, demands and other communications required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if sent by electronic means acceptable to the parties (followed by first-class mail), by hand-delivery, by facsimile (followed by first-class mail), by nationally recognized overnight courier service or by prepaid registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the addresses set forth below:
