Subsidiaries are entities duly organized and validly existing and

properties and to carry on their business as now being conducted
and as presently proposed to be conducted. Each of the Company and
each of its Subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign entity to
do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which
its ownership of property or the nature of the business conducted
by it makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that
the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as
defined below). As used in this Agreement, “Material Adverse Effect” means any
material adverse effect on (i) the business, properties, assets,
liabilities, operations (including results thereof), condition
(financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or any
Subsidiary, individually or taken as a whole, (ii) the transactions
contemplated hereby or in any of the other Transaction Documents or
any other agreements or instruments to be entered into in
connection herewith or therewith or (iii) the authority or ability
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to perform any of their
respective obligations under any of the Transaction Documents (as
defined below). Other than the Persons (as defined below) set forth
in Exhibit 21.1 to the Registration Statement, the Company has no
Subsidiaries. “Subsidiaries” means any Person in
which the Company, directly or indirectly, (A) owns any of the
outstanding capital stock or holds any equity or similar interest
of such Person or (B) controls or operates all or any part of the
business, operations or administration of such Person, and each of
the foregoing, is individually referred to herein as a
“Subsidiary”.

 


(b)          Authorization;

and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and to issue the
Securities in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. The
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without
limitation, the issuance of the Common Shares, the issuance of the
Warrants and the reservation for issuance and issuance of the
Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants) have been
duly authorized by the Company’s board of directors and
(other than the filing with the SEC of the prospectus forming part
of the Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the
1933 Act (as amended or supplemented, from time to time, the
“Prospectus”)
and any other filings as may be required by any state securities
agencies) no further filing, consent or authorization is required
by the Company, its board of directors or its stockholders or other
governing body. This Agreement has been, and the other Transaction
Documents will be prior to the Closing, duly executed and delivered
by the Company, and each constitutes the legal, valid and binding
obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in
accordance with its respective terms, except as such enforceability
may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or
similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement
of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies and except as
rights to indemnification and to contribution may be limited by
federal or state securities law. “Transaction Documents” means,
collectively, this Agreement, the Warrants, the Irrevocable
Transfer Agent Instructions (as defined below) and each of the
other agreements and instruments entered into or delivered by any
of the parties hereto in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby, as may be amended from time to
time.

 


 (c)          Issuance
of Securities; Registration Statement. The issuance of the
Common Shares and the Warrants are duly authorized and, upon
issuance and payment in accordance with the terms of the
Transaction Documents shall be validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable and free from all preemptive or similar rights,
mortgages, defects, claims, liens, pledges, charges, taxes, rights
of first refusal, encumbrances, security interests and other
encumbrances (collectively “Liens”) with respect to the
issuance thereof. As of the Closing, the Company shall have
reserved from its duly authorized capital stock not less than 100%
of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants (without taking into account any
limitations on the exercise of the Warrants set forth in the
Warrants). Upon exercise in accordance with the Warrants, the
Warrant Shares, when issued, will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and free from all preemptive or similar rights or
Liens with respect to the issue thereof, with the holders being
entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of Common Stock. The
issuance by the Company of the Securities has been registered under
the 1933 Act, the Securities are being issued pursuant to the
Registration Statement and all of the Securities are freely
transferable and freely tradable by each of the Buyers without
restriction (except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement),
whether by way of registration or some exemption therefrom. The
Registration Statement is effective and available for the issuance
of the Securities thereunder and the Company has not received any
notice that the SEC has issued or intends to issue a stop-order
with respect to the Registration Statement or that the SEC
otherwise has suspended or withdrawn the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement, either temporarily or permanently, or
intends or has threatened in writing to do so. The “Plan of
Distribution” section under the Registration Statement
permits the issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder and as
contemplated by the other Transaction Documents. Upon receipt of
the Securities, each of the Buyers will have good and marketable
title to the Securities. The Registration Statement and any
prospectus included therein, including the Prospectus, complied in
all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
“1934 Act”) and
the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder and all
other applicable laws and regulations. At the time the Registration
Statement and any amendments thereto became effective, at the date
of this Agreement and at each deemed effective date thereof
pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2) of the 1933 Act, the Registration
Statement and any amendments thereto complied and will comply in
all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and did
not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The
Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto, at the time
the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto was issued
and at the Closing Date, complied, and will comply, in all material
respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act and did not, and
will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit
to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading. The Company meets all of the requirements for the
use of Form S-1 under the 1933 Act for the offering and sale of the
Securities contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents, and the SEC has not notified the Company of any
objection to the use of the form of the Registration Statement
pursuant to Rule 401(g)(1) under the 1933 Act. At the earliest time
after the filing of the Registration Statement that the Company or
another offering participant made a bona fide offer (within the
meaning of Rule 164(h)(2) under the 1933 Act) relating to any of
the Securities, the Company was not and is not an “Ineligible
Issuer” (as defined in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act). The
Company (i) has not distributed any offering material in connection
with the offer or sale of any of the Securities and (ii) until no
Buyer holds any of the Securities, shall not distribute any
offering material in connection with the offer or sale of any of
the Securities to, or by, any of the Buyers (if required), in each
case, other than the Registration Statement or the

of the foregoing filed prior to the date hereof and all exhibits
and appendices included therein and financial statements, notes and
schedules thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein
being hereinafter referred to as the “SEC Documents”). The Company has
delivered or has made available to the Buyers or their respective

regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC
Documents, and none of the SEC Documents, at the time they were
filed with the SEC, contained any untrue statement of a material
fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. As of their respective dates, the financial statements
of the Company included in the SEC Documents complied in all
material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the
published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as
in effect as of the time of filing. Such financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles (“GAAP”), consistently applied,
during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise
indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto, or

or in the aggregate). The reserves, if any, established by the

based upon facts and circumstances known by the Company on the date
hereof and there are no loss contingencies that are required to be
accrued by the Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 5 of

Buyers which is not included in the SEC Documents (including,

Agreement) contains any untrue statement of a material fact or
omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make the
statements therein not misleading, in the light of the circumstance
under which they are or were made. The Company is not currently
contemplating to amend or restate any of the financial statements
(including, without limitation, any notes or any letter of the
independent accountants of the Company with respect thereto)

regulations of the SEC. The Company has not been informed by its
independent accountants that they recommend that the Company amend
or restate any of the Financial Statements or that there is any
need for the Company to amend or restate any of the Financial
Statements.

of Certain Changes. Since the date of the Company’s
most recent audited financial statements contained in a Form 10-K,

have any knowledge or reason to believe that any of their
respective creditors intend to initiate involuntary bankruptcy
proceedings or any actual knowledge of any fact which would
reasonably lead a creditor to do so. The Company and its
Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, upon receipt of proceeds
from this offering, will not be Insolvent (as defined below). For
purposes of this Section 3(k), “Insolvent” means, (i) with respect
to the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, (A)

to pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or
otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and

ability to pay as such debts mature; and (ii) with respect to the

saleable value of the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s
(as the case may be) assets is less than the amount required to pay
its respective total Indebtedness, (B) the Company or such

debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as
such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured or (C) the
Company or such Subsidiary (as the case may be) intends to incur or
believes that it will incur debts that would be beyond its
respective ability to pay as such debts mature. Neither the Company
nor any of its Subsidiaries has engaged in any business or in any
transaction, and is not about to engage in any business or in any
transaction, for which the Company’s or such
Subsidiary’s remaining assets constitute unreasonably small
capital with which to conduct the business in which it is engaged
as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be
conducted.

(l)           No
Undisclosed Events, Liabilities, Developments or
Circumstances. No event, liability, development or
circumstance has occurred or exists, or is reasonably expected to
exist or occur with respect to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries
or any of their respective businesses, properties, liabilities,
prospects, operations (including results thereof) or condition
(financial or otherwise), that (i) would be required to be
disclosed by the Company under applicable securities laws on a
registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC relating to
an issuance and sale by the Company of its Common Stock and which
has not been publicly announced, (ii) could have a material adverse
effect on any Buyer’s investment hereunder or (iii) could
have a Material Adverse Effect.

 


(m)         Conduct
of Business; Regulatory Permits. Neither the Company nor any
of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any term of or in default
under its Articles of Incorporation or By-laws or their
organizational charter, certificate of formation, memorandum of
association, articles of association, Articles of Incorporation or
certificate of incorporation or by-laws, respectively. Neither the
Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any
judgment, decree or order or any statute, ordinance, rule or
regulation applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,
and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries will conduct
its business in violation of any of the foregoing, except in all
cases for possible violations which could not, individually or in
the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth
in the SEC Documents, without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Company is not in violation of any of the rules,
regulations or requirements of the Principal Market and has no
knowledge of any facts or circumstances that could reasonably lead
to delisting or suspension of the Common Stock by the Principal
Market in the foreseeable future. Except as set forth in the SEC
Documents, during the two years prior to the date hereof, (i) the
Common Stock has been listed or designated for quotation on the
Principal Market, (ii) trading in the Common Stock has not been
suspended by the SEC or the Principal Market and (iii) the Company
has received no communication, written or oral, from the SEC or the
Principal Market regarding the suspension or delisting of the
Common Stock from the Principal Market. The Company and each of its
Subsidiaries possess all certificates, authorizations and permits
issued by the appropriate regulatory authorities necessary to
conduct their respective businesses, except where the failure to
possess such certificates, authorizations or permits would not
have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect,
and neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has received any
notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of
any such certificate, authorization or permit. There is no
agreement, commitment, judgment, injunction, order or decree
binding upon the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or to which the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party which has or would
reasonably be expected to have the effect of prohibiting or
materially impairing any business practice of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries, any acquisition of property by the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries or the conduct of business by the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries as currently conducted other than such
effects, individually or in the aggregate, which have not had and
would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect
on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

 


(n)              
Foreign Corrupt
Practices. Neither the Company, the Company’s
subsidiary or any director, officer, agent, employee, nor any other
person acting for or on behalf of the foregoing (individually and
collectively, a “Company
Affiliate”) have violated the U.S. Foreign Corrupt
Practices Act (the “FCPA”) or any other applicable
anti-bribery or anti-corruption laws, nor has any Company Affiliate

person acting in an official capacity for any Governmental Entity
to any political party or official thereof or to any candidate for
political office (individually and collectively, a
“Government
Official”) or to any person under circumstances where
such Company Affiliate knew or was aware of a high probability that
all or a portion of such money or thing of value would be offered,
given or promised, directly or indirectly, to any Government
Official, for the purpose of:

 


(i)                
(A) influencing any act or decision of such Government Official in
his/her official capacity, (B) inducing such Government Official to
do or omit to do any act in violation of his/her lawful duty, (C)
securing any improper advantage, or (D) inducing such Government
Official to influence or affect any act or decision of any
Governmental Entity, or

 


(ii)              
assisting the Company or its Subsidiaries in obtaining or retaining
business for or with, or directing business to, the Company or its
Subsidiaries.

 


(o)              
Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
The Company and each Subsidiary is in compliance with any and all
applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as
amended, and any and all applicable rules and regulations
promulgated by the SEC thereunder.

 


(p)              
Transactions With
Affiliates. Except as set forth in the Registration
Statement, since January 1, 2016, no current or former employee,
partner, director, officer or stockholder (direct or indirect) of
the Company or its Subsidiaries, or any associate, or, to the
knowledge of the Company, any affiliate of any thereof, or any
relative with a relationship no more remote than first cousin of
any of the foregoing, is presently, or has ever been, (i) a party
to any transaction with the Company or its Subsidiaries (including
any contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for the
furnishing of services by, or rental of real or personal property
from, or otherwise requiring payments to, any such director,
officer or stockholder or such associate or affiliate or relative
Subsidiaries (other than for ordinary course services as employees,
officers or directors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries))
or (ii) the direct or indirect owner of an interest in any
corporation, firm, association or business organization which is a
competitor, supplier or customer of the Company or its Subsidiaries
(except for a passive investment (direct or indirect) in less than
5% of the common stock of a company whose securities are traded on
or quoted through a Trading Market (as defined below)), nor does
any such Person receive income from any source other than the
Company or its Subsidiaries which relates to the business of the
Company or its Subsidiaries or should properly accrue to the
Company or its Subsidiaries. Except as set forth in the
Registration Statement, no employee, officer, stockholder or
director of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or member of his
or her immediate family is indebted to the Company or its
Subsidiaries, as the case may be, nor is the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries indebted (or committed to make loans or extend or
guarantee credit) to any of them, other than (i) for payment of
salary for services rendered, (ii) reimbursement for reasonable
expenses incurred on behalf of the Company, and (iii) for other
standard employee benefits made generally available to all
employees or executives (including stock option agreements
outstanding under any stock option plan approved by the Board of
Directors of the Company).

 


(q)          Equity
Capitalization.

 


(i)            Definitions: 


 


“Common Stock” means (x) the
Company’s shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share,
and (y) any capital stock into which such common stock shall have
been changed or any share capital resulting from a reclassification
of such common stock.

 


(ii)           Authorized
and Outstanding Capital Stock. As of the date hereof, the
authorized capital stock of the Company consists of (A) 250,000,000
shares of Common Stock, of which, [ ] are issued and outstanding
and [ ] shares are reserved for issuance pursuant to Convertible
Securities (as defined below) (other than the Common Shares and the
Warrants) exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into,
shares of Common Stock. “Convertible Securities” means any
capital stock or other security of the Company that is at any time
and under any circumstances directly or indirectly convertible
into, exercisable or exchangeable for, or which otherwise entitles
the holder thereof to acquire, any capital stock or other security
of the Company (including, without limitation, Common
Stock).

 


(iii)          Valid
Issuance; Available Shares; Affiliates. All of such
outstanding shares are duly authorized and have been, or upon
issuance will be, validly issued and are fully paid and
nonassessable. The Registration Statement sets forth the number of
shares of Common Stock that are (A) reserved for issuance pursuant
to Convertible Securities (as defined below) (other than the
Warrants) and (B) that are, as of the date hereof, owned by Persons
who are “affiliates” (as defined in Rule 405 of the
1933 Act and calculated based on the assumption that only officers,
directors and holders of at least 10% of the Company’s issued
and outstanding Common Stock are “affiliates” without
conceding that any such Persons are “affiliates” for
purposes of federal securities laws) of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries. To the Company’s knowledge, no Person owns 10%
or more of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of
Common Stock (calculated based on the assumption that all
Convertible Securities (as defined below), whether or not presently
exercisable or convertible, have been fully exercised or
converted (as the case may be) taking account of any
limitations on exercise or conversion (including
“blockers”) contained therein without conceding that
such identified Person is a 10% stockholder for purposes of federal
securities laws).

outstanding options, warrants, scrip, rights to subscribe to, calls
or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or
securities or rights convertible into, or exercisable or

Subsidiaries; (E) there are no securities or instruments containing
anti-dilution or similar provisions that will be triggered by the
issuance of the Securities; and (F) neither the Company nor any

correct and complete copies of the Company’s Articles of
Incorporation, as amended and as in effect on the date hereof (the
“Articles of
Incorporation”), and the Company’s by-laws, as

“By-laws”), and
the terms of all Convertible Securities and the material rights of
the holders thereof in respect thereto, and the Buyer’s may
access such documents and terms through the SEC’s EDGAR
database.

 


(r)           Indebtedness
and Other Contracts. Neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries, (i) except as set forth in the Registration
Statement, has any outstanding debt securities, notes, credit
agreements, credit facilities or other agreements, documents or
instruments evidencing Indebtedness of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is
or may become bound, (ii) is a party to any contract, agreement or
instrument, the violation of which, or default under which, by the
other party(ies) to such contract, agreement or instrument could

amounts filed in connection with the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries; (iv) is in violation of any term of, or in default
under, any contract, agreement or instrument relating to any
Indebtedness, except where such violations and defaults would not
result, individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse
Effect, or (v) is a party to any contract, agreement or instrument
relating to any Indebtedness, the performance of which, in the
judgment of the Company’s officers, has or is expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries have any liabilities or obligations required to be
disclosed in the SEC Documents which are not so disclosed in the
SEC Documents, other than those incurred in the ordinary course of
the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ respective
businesses and which, individually or in the aggregate, do not or
could not have a Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this
Agreement: (x) “Indebtedness” of any Person means,
without duplication (A) all indebtedness for borrowed money, (B)
all obligations issued, undertaken or assumed as the deferred
purchase price of property or services (including, without
limitation, “capital leases” in accordance with GAAP)
(other than trade payables entered into in the ordinary course of
business consistent with past practice), (C) all reimbursement or
payment obligations with respect to letters of credit, surety bonds
and other similar instruments, (D) all obligations evidenced by
notes, bonds, debentures or similar instruments, including
obligations so evidenced incurred in connection with the
acquisition of property, assets or businesses, (E) all indebtedness
created or arising under any conditional sale or other title
retention agreement, or incurred as financing, in either case with
respect to any property or assets acquired with the proceeds of
such indebtedness (even though the rights and remedies of the
seller or bank under such agreement in the event of default are
limited to repossession or sale of such property), (F) all monetary
obligations under any leasing or similar arrangement which, in
connection with GAAP, consistently applied for the periods covered
thereby, is classified as a capital lease, (G) all indebtedness
referred to in clauses (A) through (F) above secured by (or for
which the holder of such Indebtedness has an existing right,
contingent or otherwise, to be secured by) any Lien upon or in any
property or assets (including accounts and contract rights) owned
by any Person, even though the Person which owns such assets or
property has not assumed or become liable for the payment of such
indebtedness, and (H) all Contingent Obligations in respect of
indebtedness or obligations of others of the kinds referred to in
clauses (A) through (G) above; (y) “Contingent Obligation” means, as
to any Person, any direct or indirect liability, contingent or
otherwise, of that Person with respect to any Indebtedness, lease,
dividend or other obligation of another Person if the primary
purpose or intent of the Person incurring such liability, or the
primary effect thereof, is to provide assurance to the obligee of
such liability that such liability will be paid or discharged, or
that any agreements relating thereto will be complied with, or that
the holders of such liability will be protected (in whole or in
part) against loss with respect thereto; and (z)
“Person” means
an individual, a limited liability company, a partnership, a joint
venture, a corporation, a trust, an unincorporated organization,
any other entity and any Governmental Entity or any department or
agency thereof.

 


(s)          Litigation.
There is no action, suit, arbitration, proceeding, inquiry or
investigation before or by the Principal Market, any court, public
board, other Governmental Entity, self-regulatory organization or
body pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened
against or affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the
Common Stock or any of the Company’s or its
Subsidiaries’ officers or directors, whether of a civil or
criminal nature or otherwise, in their capacities as such, except
as set forth in the Registration Statement. No director, officer or
employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries has willfully
violated 18 U.S.C. §1519 or engaged in spoliation in
reasonable anticipation of litigation. Without limitation of the
foregoing, there has not been, and to the knowledge of the Company,
there is not pending or contemplated, any investigation by the SEC
involving the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any current or
former director or officer of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries. The SEC has not issued any stop order or other order
suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement filed by
the Company under the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act, including, without
limitation, the Registration Statement. After reasonable inquiry of
its employees, the Company is not aware of any fact which might
result in or form the basis for any such action, suit, arbitration,
investigation, inquiry or other proceeding. Neither the Company nor
any of its Subsidiaries is subject to any order, writ, judgment,
injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental
Entity.

 


(t)           Insurance.
The Company and each of its Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of
recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks
and in such amounts as management of the Company believes to be
prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company and
its Subsidiaries are engaged. Neither the Company nor any such
Subsidiary has been refused any insurance coverage sought or
applied for, and neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has
any reason to believe that it will be unable to renew its existing
insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain
similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to
continue its business at a cost that would not have a Material
Adverse Effect.

 


(u)          Employee
Relations. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
is a party to any collective bargaining agreement or employs any
member of a union. The Company and its Subsidiaries believe that
their relations with their employees are good. No executive officer
(as defined in Rule 501(f) promulgated under the 1933 Act) or other
key employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has notified
the Company or any such Subsidiary that such officer intends to
leave the Company or any such Subsidiary or otherwise terminate
such officer’s employment with the Company or any such
Subsidiary. No executive officer or other key employee of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries is, or is now expected to be, in
violation of any material term of any employment contract,
confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement,
non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or
any restrictive covenant, and the continued employment of each such
executive officer or other key employee (as the case may be) does
not subject the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any liability
with respect to any of the foregoing matters. The Company and its
Subsidiaries are in compliance with all federal, state, local and
foreign laws and regulations respecting labor, employment and
employment practices and benefits, terms and conditions of
employment and wages and hours, except where failure to be in
compliance would not, either individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.

 


(v)          Title.

 


(i)            Real
Property. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries holds
good title to all real property, leases in real property,
facilities or other interests in real property owned or held by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Real Property”) owned by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as applicable). The Real
Property is free and clear of all Liens and is not subject to any
rights of way, building use restrictions, exceptions, variances,
reservations, or limitations of any nature except for (a) Liens for
current taxes not yet due and (b) zoning laws and other land use
restrictions that do not impair the present or anticipated use of
the property subject thereto. Any Real Property held under lease by
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are held by them under
valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as
are not material and do not interfere with the use made and
proposed to be made of such property and buildings by the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries.

 


(ii)           Fixtures
and Equipment. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries (as
applicable) has good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in,
the tangible personal property, equipment, improvements, fixtures,
and other personal property and appurtenances that are used by the
Company or its Subsidiary in connection with the conduct of its
business (the “Fixtures and
Equipment”). The Fixtures and Equipment are
structurally sound, are in good operating condition and repair, are
adequate for the uses to which they are being put, are not in need
of maintenance or repairs except for ordinary, routine maintenance
and repairs and are sufficient for the conduct of the
Company’s and/or its Subsidiaries’ businesses (as
applicable) in the manner as conducted prior to the Closing. Each
of the Company and its Subsidiaries owns all of its Fixtures and
Equipment free and clear of all Liens except for (a) Liens for
current taxes not yet due and (b) zoning laws and other land use
restrictions that do not impair the present or anticipated use of
the property subject thereto.

(w)         Intellectual
Property Rights. The Company and its Subsidiaries own or
possess adequate rights or licenses to use all trademarks, trade
names, service marks, service mark registrations, service names,
original works of authorship, patents, patent rights, copyrights,
inventions, licenses, approvals, governmental authorizations, trade
secrets and other intellectual property rights and all applications
and registrations therefor (“Intellectual Property Rights”)
necessary to conduct their respective businesses as now conducted
and presently proposed to be conducted. Each of patents owned by
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is listed in the
Registration Statement. Except as set forth in the Registration
Statement, none of the Company's Intellectual Property Rights have
expired or terminated or have been abandoned or are expected to
expire or terminate or are expected to be abandoned, within three
years from the date of this Agreement. The Company does not have
any knowledge of any infringement by the Company or its
Subsidiaries of Intellectual Property Rights of others. There is no
claim, action or proceeding being made or brought, or to the
knowledge of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, being
threatened, against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
regarding its Intellectual Property Rights. Neither the Company nor
any of its Subsidiaries is aware of any facts or circumstances
which might give rise to any of the foregoing infringements or
claims, actions or proceedings. The Company and its Subsidiaries
have taken reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy,
confidentiality and value of all of their Intellectual Property
Rights.

 


(x)           Environmental
Laws. (i) The Company and its Subsidiaries (A) are in
compliance with any and all Environmental Laws (as defined below),
(B) have received all permits, licenses or other approvals required
of them under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct their
respective businesses and (C) are in compliance with all terms and
conditions of any such permit, license or approval where, in each
of the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the failure to so comply
could be reasonably expected to have, individually or in the
aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. 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.

 


(ii)           No
Hazardous Materials:

 


(A)       have
been disposed of or otherwise released from any Real Property (as
defined below) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in
violation of any Environmental Laws; or

 


(B)       are
present on, over, beneath, in or upon any Real Property or any
portion thereof in quantities that would constitute a violation of
any Environmental Laws. No prior use by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries of any Real Property has occurred that violates any
Environmental Laws, which violation would have a material adverse
effect on the business of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries.

 


(iii)          Neither
the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries knows of any other person
who or entity which has stored, treated, recycled, disposed of or
otherwise located any Hazardous Materials on any Real Property,
including, without limitation, such substances as asbestos and
polychlorinated biphenyls.

 


(iv)         None
of the Real Properties are on any federal or state
“Superfund” list or Liability Information System
(“CERCLIS”) list
or any state environmental agency list of sites under consideration
for CERCLIS, nor subject to any environmental related
Liens.

 


(y)          Subsidiary
Rights. The Company or one of its Subsidiaries has the
unrestricted right to vote, and (subject to limitations imposed by
applicable law) to receive dividends and distributions on, all
capital securities of its Subsidiaries as owned by the Company or
such Subsidiary.

 


(z)           Tax
Status. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries (i) has
timely made or filed all foreign, federal and state income and all
other tax returns, reports and declarations required by any
jurisdiction to which it is subject, (ii) has timely paid all taxes
and other governmental assessments and charges that are material in
amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns, reports and
declarations, except those being contested in good faith and (iii)
has set aside on its books provision reasonably adequate for the
payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which
such returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no unpaid
taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing
authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company and
its Subsidiaries know of no basis for any such claim. The Company
is not operated in such a manner as to qualify as a passive foreign
investment company, as defined in Section 1297 of the U.S. Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The net operating loss
carryforwards (“NOLs”) for United States federal
income tax purposes of the consolidated group of which the Company
is the common parent, if any, shall not be adversely effected by
the transactions contemplated hereby. The transactions contemplated
hereby do not constitute an “ownership change” within
the meaning of Section 382 of the Code, thereby preserving the
Company’s ability to utilize such NOLs.

 


(aa)        Internal
Accounting and Disclosure Controls. The Company’s
statement in its Annual Report on Form 10-k for the year ended
November 30, 2016 that its internal control over financial
reporting was ineffective has not been revised. The Company’s
statement in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-q for the period ended
August 31, 2017 that its disclosure controls and procedures were
ineffective has not been revised. Neither the Company nor any of
its Subsidiaries has received any notice or correspondence from any
accountant, Governmental Entity or other Person relating to any
potential material weakness or significant deficiency in any part
of the internal controls over financial reporting of the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries.

 


(bb)       Off
Balance Sheet Arrangements. There is no transaction,
arrangement, or other relationship between the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries and an unconsolidated or other off balance sheet
entity that is required to be disclosed by the Company in its 1934
Act filings and is not so disclosed or that otherwise could be
reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 


(cc)        Investment
Company Status. The Company is not, and upon consummation of
the sale of the Securities will not be, an “investment
company,” an affiliate of an “investment
company,” a company controlled by an “investment
company” or an “affiliated person” of, or
“promoter” or “principal underwriter” for,
an “investment company” as such terms are defined in
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

 


(dd)       Acknowledgement
Regarding Buyers’ Trading Activity. It is understood
and acknowledged by the Company that (i) following the public
disclosure of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents, in accordance with the terms thereof, none of the Buyers
have been asked by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to agree,
nor has any Buyer agreed with the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, to desist from effecting any transactions in or with
respect to (including, without limitation, purchasing or selling,
long and/or short) any securities of the Company, or
“derivative” securities based on securities issued by
the Company or to hold any of the Securities for any specified term
(except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement); (ii) any Buyer,
and counterparties in “derivative” transactions to
which any such Buyer is a party, directly or indirectly, presently
may have a “short” position in the Common Stock which
was established prior to such Buyer’s knowledge of the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents; and (iii)
each Buyer shall not be deemed to have any affiliation with or
control over any arm’s length counterparty in any
“derivative” transaction. The Company further
understands and acknowledges that following the public disclosure
of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents
pursuant to the Press Release (as defined below) one or more Buyers
may engage in hedging and/or trading activities at various times
during the period that the Securities are outstanding, including,
without limitation, during the periods that the value and/or number
of the Warrant Shares deliverable with respect to the Warrants are

discussions, the Company has no reason to believe that it will need
to restate any such financial statements or any part
thereof.

 


(oo)       No
Additional Agreements. The Company does not have any
agreement or understanding with any Buyer with respect to the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents other than
as specified in the Transaction Documents.

 


(pp)       Public
Utility Holding Act None of the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries is a “holding company,” or an
“affiliate” of a “holding company,” as such
terms are defined in the Public Utility Holding Act of
2005.

Power Act. None of the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
is subject to regulation as a “public utility” under

(rr)         Registration
Rights. No holder of securities of the Company has rights to
the registration of any securities of the Company because of the
filing of the Registration Statement or the issuance of the
Securities hereunder that could expose the Company to material
liability or any Buyer to any liability or that could impair the
Company’s ability to consummate the issuance and sale of the
Securities in the manner, and at the times, contemplated hereby,
which rights have not been waived by the holder thereof as of the
date hereof.

 


(ss)        Disclosure.
The Company confirms that neither it nor any other Person acting on
its behalf has provided any of the Buyers or their agents or
counsel with any information that constitutes or could reasonably
be expected to constitute material, non-public information
concerning the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, other than the
existence of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents. The Company understands and
confirms that each of the Buyers will rely on the foregoing
representations in effecting transactions in securities of the
Company. All disclosure provided to the Buyers regarding the
Company and its Subsidiaries, their businesses and the transactions
contemplated hereby, including the schedules to this Agreement,
furnished by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
is true and correct and does not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order
to make the statements made therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. All of
the written information furnished after the date hereof by or on
behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to each Buyer
pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents, taken as a whole, will be true and correct
in all material respects as of the date on which such information
is so provided and will not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order
to make the statements made therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each
press release issued by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
during the twelve (12) months preceding the date of this Agreement
did not at the time of release contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they are
made, not misleading. No event or circumstance has occurred or
information exists with respect to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries or its or their business, properties, liabilities,
prospects, operations (including results thereof) or conditions
(financial or otherwise), which, under applicable law, rule or
regulation, requires public disclosure at or before the date hereof
or announcement by the Company but which has not been so publicly
disclosed. All financial projections and forecasts that have been
prepared by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
and made available to you have been prepared in good faith based
upon reasonable assumptions and represented, at the time each such
financial projection or forecast was delivered to each Buyer, the
Company’s best estimate of future financial performance (it
being recognized that such financial projections or forecasts are
not to be viewed as facts and that the actual results during the
period or periods covered by any such financial projections or
forecasts may differ from the projected or forecasted results). The
Company acknowledges and agrees that no Buyer makes or has made any
representations or warranties with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in
Section 2.

COVENANTS.







 


(a)          Best
Efforts. Each Buyer shall use its best efforts to timely
satisfy each of the covenants hereunder and conditions to be
satisfied by it as provided in Section 6 of this Agreement. The
Company shall use its best efforts to timely satisfy each of the
covenants hereunder and conditions to be satisfied by it as
provided in Section 7 of this Agreement.

 


(b)          Amendments
to the Registration Statement; Prospectus Supplements; Free Writing
Prospectuses.

 


(i)            Amendments
to the Registration Statement; Prospectus Supplements; Free Writing
Prospectuses. Except as provided in this Agreement and other
than periodic reports and current reports required to be filed
pursuant to the 1934 Act, the Company shall not file with the SEC
any amendment to the Registration Statement that relates to the
Buyer, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby or file with the SEC any supplement (each, a
“Prospectus
Supplement”) to the initial Prospectus included in the
Registration Statement at the time it was initially declared
effective by the SEC (the “Initial Prospectus”) that relates
to the Buyer, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby with respect to which (a) the Buyer shall not
previously have been advised, (b) the Company shall not have given
due consideration to any comments thereon received from the Buyer
or its counsel, or (c) the Buyer shall reasonably object after
being so advised, unless the Company reasonably has determined that
it is necessary to amend the Registration Statement or make any
supplement to the Prospectus to comply with the 1933 Act or any
other applicable law or regulation, in which case the Company shall
promptly (but in no event later than 24 hours) so inform the Buyer,
the Buyer shall be provided with a reasonable opportunity to review
and comment upon any disclosure relating to the Buyer and the
Company shall expeditiously furnish to the Buyer an electronic copy
thereof. In addition, for so long as, in the reasonable opinion of
counsel for the Buyer, the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof, the
notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the 1933 Act) is required
to be delivered in connection with any acquisition or sale of
Securities by the Buyer, the Company shall not file the Initial
Prospectus or any Prospectus Supplement with respect to the
Securities without delivering or making available a copy of such
Prospectus (including each Prospectus Supplement in effect as of
such time, if any) to the Buyer promptly.

 


(ii)           The
Company has not made, and agrees that unless it obtains the prior
written consent of the Buyer it will not make, an offer relating to
the Securities that would constitute an “issuer free writing
prospectus” as defined in Rule 433 promulgated under the 1933
Act (an “Issuer Free Writing
Prospectus”) or that would otherwise constitute a
“free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 405
promulgated under the 1933 Act (a “Free Writing Prospectus”) required
to be filed by the Company or the Buyer with the SEC or retained by
the Company or the Buyer under Rule 433 under the 1933 Act. The
Buyer has not made, and agrees that unless it obtains the prior
written consent of the Company it will not make, an offer relating
to the Securities that would constitute a Free Writing Prospectus
required to be filed by the Company with the SEC or retained by the
Company under Rule 433 under the 1933 Act. Any such Issuer Free
Writing Prospectus or other Free Writing Prospectus consented to by
the Buyer or the Company is referred to in this Agreement as a
“Permitted Free Writing
Prospectus.” The Company agrees that (x) it has
treated and will treat, as the case may be, each Permitted Free
Writing Prospectus as an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and (y) it
has complied and will comply, as the case may be, with the
requirements of Rules 164 and 433 under the 1933 Act applicable to
any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including in respect of
timely filing with the SEC, legending and record
keeping.

 


(c)          Prospectus
Delivery. Immediately prior to execution of this Agreement,
the Company shall have delivered to the Buyer, and as soon as
practicable after execution of this Agreement the Company shall
file, the Prospectus with respect to the Securities to be issued on
the Closing Date, as required under, and in conformity with, the
1933 Act, including Rule 424(b) thereunder. Except as set out in
Section 4(b), the Company shall provide the Buyer a reasonable
opportunity to comment on a draft of each Prospectus Supplement and
any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, if any, shall give due
consideration to all such comments and, subject to the provisions
of Section 4(b) hereof, shall deliver or make available to the
Buyer, without charge, an electronic copy of the Prospectus
(including any Prospectus Supplement and any Permitted Free Writing
Prospectus, if any) on the Closing Date. The Company consents to
the use of the Prospectus in accordance with the provisions of the
1933 Act and with the securities or “blue sky” laws of
the jurisdictions in which the Securities may be sold by the Buyer,
in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities and for
such period of time thereafter as the Prospectus (or in lieu
thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the 1933 Act)
is required by the 1933 Act to be delivered in connection with
sales of the Securities. If during such period of time any event
shall occur that in the judgment of the Company and its counsel is
required to be set forth in the Registration Statement or the
Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus or should be
set forth therein in order to make the statements made therein (in
the case of the Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made) not misleading, or if it is necessary to
amend the Registration Statement or supplement or amend the
Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus to comply with
the 1933 Act or any other applicable law or regulation, the Company
shall forthwith prepare and, subject to Section 4(b) above, file
with the SEC an appropriate amendment to the Registration Statement
or Prospectus Supplement to the Prospectus (or supplement to the
Permitted Free Writing Prospectus) and shall expeditiously furnish
or make available to the Buyer an electronic copy
thereof.

(d)          Stop
Orders. The Company shall advise the Buyer promptly (but in
no event later than 24 hours) and shall confirm such advice in
writing: (i) of the Company’s receipt of notice of any
request by the SEC for amendment of or a supplement to the
Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any Permitted Free Writing
Prospectus or for any additional information; (ii) of the
Company’s receipt of notice of the issuance by the SEC of any
stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement or prohibiting or suspending the use of the Prospectus or
any Prospectus Supplement, or of the suspension of qualification of
the Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the
initiation or contemplated initiation of any proceeding for such
purpose; (iii) of the Company becoming aware of the happening of
any event, which makes any statement of a material fact made in the
Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free
Writing Prospectus untrue or which requires the making of any
additions to or changes to the statements then made in the
Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Permitted Free
Writing Prospectus in order to state a material fact required by
the 1933 Act to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
statements then made therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made) not
misleading, or of the necessity to amend the Registration Statement
or supplement the Prospectus or any Permitted Free Writing
Prospectus to comply with the 1933 Act or any other law or (iv) if
at any time following the date hereof the Registration Statement is
not effective or is not otherwise available for the issuance of the
Securities or any Prospectus contained therein is not available for
use for any other reason. Thereafter, the Company shall promptly
notify such holders when the Registration Statement, the
Prospectus, any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus and/or any
amendment or supplement thereto, as applicable, is effective and
available for the issuance of the Securities. If at any time the
SEC shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement or prohibiting or suspending the use of the
Prospectus or any Prospectus Supplement, the Company shall use best
efforts to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the earliest
possible time.

 


(e)          Blue

for sale to the Buyers at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement
under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the
states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such
qualification), and shall provide evidence of any such action so
taken to the Buyers on or prior to the Closing Date. Without
limiting any other obligation of the Company under this Agreement,
the Company shall timely make all filings and reports relating to
the offer and sale of the Securities required under all applicable
securities laws (including, without limitation, all applicable
federal securities laws and all applicable “Blue Sky”
laws), and the Company shall comply with all applicable foreign,
federal, state and local laws, statutes, rules, regulations and the
like relating to the offering and sale of the Securities to the
Buyers.

Status. Until the date on which the Buyers shall have sold
all of the Securities (the “Reporting Period”), the Company
shall timely file all reports required to be filed with the SEC
pursuant to the 1934 Act, and the Company 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
no longer require or otherwise permit such
termination.

(1st)
Business Day after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall

material, non-public information (if any) provided to any of the
Buyers by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their
respective officers, directors, employees or agents in connection
with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. In
addition, effective upon the filing of the Press Release, the
Company acknowledges and agrees that any and all confidentiality or
similar obligations under any agreement, whether written or oral,
between the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their
respective officers, directors, affiliates, employees or agents, on
the one hand, and any of the Buyers or any of their affiliates, on
the other hand, shall terminate.

 


 (ii)           Limitations

officers, directors, employees and agents (as determined in the
reasonable good faith judgment of such Buyer), in addition to any
other remedy provided herein or in the Transaction Documents, such
Buyer shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the form
of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of such
breach or such material, non-public information, as applicable,

consent, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that such Buyer
shall not have any duty of confidentiality with respect to, or a
duty not to trade on the basis of, such material, non-public

other public statements with respect to the transactions

entitled, without the prior approval of any Buyer, to make the
Press Release and any press release or other public disclosure with
respect to such transactions (i) in substantial conformity with the
8-K Filing and contemporaneously therewith and (ii) as is required
by applicable law and regulations (provided that in the case of
clause (i) each Buyer shall be consulted by the Company in
connection with any such press release or other public disclosure
prior to its release). Without the prior written consent of the
applicable Buyer (which may be granted or withheld in such
Buyer’s sole discretion), the Company shall not (and shall
cause each of its Subsidiaries and affiliates to not) disclose the
name of such Buyer in any filing, announcement, release or
otherwise. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to
the contrary and without implication that the contrary would
otherwise be true, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees
that no Buyer shall have (unless expressly agreed to by a
particular Buyer after the date hereof in a written definitive and
binding agreement executed by the Company and such particular Buyer
(it being understood and agreed that no Buyer may bind any other
Buyer with respect thereto)), any duty of confidentiality with
respect to, or a duty not to trade on the basis of, any material,
non-public information regarding the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries.

(l)           Reservation
of Shares. So long as any of the Warrants remain
outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary to at all
times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance, no
less than 100% of the maximum number of Warrant Shares issuable
upon exercise of all the Warrants then outstanding (without regard
to any limitations on the exercise of the Warrants set forth
therein) (collectively, the “Required Reserve Amount”);
provided that at no time shall the number of shares of Common Stock
reserved pursuant to this Section 4(l) be reduced other than
proportionally in connection with any exercise of the Warrants. If
at any time the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and
reserved for issuance is not sufficient to meet the Required
Reserve Amount, the Company will promptly take all corporate action
necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares,
including, without limitation, calling a special meeting of
stockholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company's
obligations pursuant to the Transaction Documents, in the case of
an insufficient number of authorized shares, obtain stockholder
approval of an increase in such authorized number of shares, and
voting the management shares of the Company in favor of an increase
in the authorized shares of the Company to ensure that the number
of authorized shares is sufficient to meet the Required Reserve
Amount.

 


 (m)         Conduct
of Business. The business of the Company and its
Subsidiaries shall not be conducted in violation of any law,
ordinance or regulation of any Governmental Entity, except where
such violations would not reasonably be expected to result, either
individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse
Effect.

 


(n)          Reserved.

 


(o)          Passive
Foreign Investment Company. The Company shall conduct its
business, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to conduct their
respective businesses, in such a manner as will ensure that the
Company will not be deemed to constitute a passive foreign
investment company within the meaning of Section 1297 of the
Code.

 


(p)          Corporate
Existence. So long as any Buyer beneficially owns any
Warrants, the Company shall not be party to any Fundamental
Transaction (as defined in the Warrants) unless the Company is in
compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental
Transactions set forth in the Warrants.

 


(q)          Exercise
Procedures. The form of Exercise Notice (as defined in the
Warrants) included in the Warrants sets forth the totality of the
procedures required of the Buyers in order to exercise the
Warrants. No legal opinion or other information or instructions
shall be required of the Buyers to exercise their Warrants. The
Company shall honor exercises of the Warrants and shall deliver the
Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms, conditions and time
periods set forth in the Warrants. Without limiting the preceding
sentences, no ink-original Exercise Notice (as defined in the
Warrants) shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or
other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Exercise Notice
form be required in order to exercise the Warrants.

 


(r)           Regulation
M. The Company will not take any action prohibited by
Regulation M under the 1934 Act, in connection with the
distribution of the Securities contemplated hereby.

 


(s)          Closing
Documents. On or prior to fourteen (14) calendar days after
the Closing Date, the Company agrees to deliver, or cause to be
delivered, to each Buyer, the Placement Agent and Sichenzia Ross
Ference Kesner LLP a complete closing set of the executed
Transaction Documents, Securities and any other document required
to be delivered to any party pursuant to Section 7 hereof or
otherwise.

 


(t)           Buyer
Leak-Out.                                Each
Buyer agrees that from the date of this Agreement and ending at
4:00 pm (New York City time) on _________, 2018 (such period, the
“Restricted Period”), neither such Buyer, nor any
affiliate of such Buyer which (x) had or has knowledge of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (y) has or shares
discretion relating to such Buyer’s investments or trading or
information concerning such Buyer’s investments, including in
respect of the Securities, or (z) is subject to such Buyer’s
review or input concerning such affiliate’s investments or
trading (together, the “Buyer’s Trading
Affiliates”), collectively, shall sell, dispose or otherwise
transfer, directly or indirectly, (including, without limitation,
any sales, short sales, swaps or any derivative transactions that
would be equivalent to any sales or short positions) on any Trading
Day during the Restricted Period (any such date, a “Date of
Determination”), shares of Common Stock, or shares of Common
Stock underlying any Convertible Securities, held by the Buyer on
the date hereof, including the Shares and the Warrant Shares
issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (collectively, the
“Restricted Securities”), in an amount more than __% of
the trading volume of Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg, LP for
the applicable Date of Determination (“Leak-Out
Percentage”); provided, that the foregoing restriction shall
not apply to any actual “long” (as defined in
Regulation SHO of the 1934 Act) sales by the Holder or any of the
Holder’s Trading Affiliates at a price greater than
$_________ (in each case, as adjusted for stock splits, stock
dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar
events occurring after the date hereof).

 


 Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, during the Restricted Period, the
Buyer may, directly or indirectly, sell or transfer all, or any
part, of any Restricted Securities to any Person (an
“Assignee”) in a transaction which does not need to be
reported on the consolidated tape on the Principal Market, without
complying with (or otherwise limited by) the restrictions set forth
in this Leak-Out Agreement; provided, that as a condition to any
such sale or transfer an authorized signatory of the Company and
such Assignee duly execute and deliver a leak-out agreement in the
form of this Section 4(t) (an “Assignee Agreement”, and
each such transfer a “Permitted Transfer”) and,
subsequent to a Permitted Transfer, sales of the Buyer and the
Buyer’s Trading Affiliates and all Assignees (other than any
such sales that constitute Permitted Transfers) shall be aggregated
for all purposes of this Section 4(t) and all Assignee
Agreements.

REGISTER; TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS; LEGEND.







 


(a)        
    Register. The Company shall
maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office
or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to each
holder of Securities), a register for the Common Shares and the
Warrants in which the Company shall record the name and address of
the Person in whose name the Common Shares and the Warrants have
been issued (including the name and address of each transferee),
the number of Common Shares held by such Person and the number of
Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants held by such
Person. The Company shall keep the register open and available at
all times during business hours for inspection of any Buyer or its
legal representatives.

 


 (b)          Transfer
Agent Instructions. The Company shall issue irrevocable
instructions to its Transfer Agent and any subsequent transfer
agent in a form acceptable to each of the Buyers (the
“Irrevocable Transfer Agent
Instructions”) to issue certificates or credit shares
to the applicable balance accounts at DTC, registered in the name
of each Buyer or its respective nominee(s), for the Common Shares
and the Warrant Shares in such amounts as specified from time to
time by each Buyer to the Company upon the exercise of the Warrants
(as the case may be). The Company represents and warrants that no
instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions
referred to in this Section 5(b) will be given by the Company
to its Transfer Agent with respect to the Securities, and that the
Securities shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and
records of the Company, as applicable, to the extent provided in
this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. If a Buyer
effects a sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities, the
Company shall permit the transfer and shall promptly instruct its
Transfer Agent to issue one or more certificates or credit shares
to the applicable balance accounts at DTC in such name and in such
denominations as specified by such Buyer to effect such sale,
transfer or assignment. The Company acknowledges that a breach by
it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to a
Buyer. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law
for a breach of its obligations under this Section 5(b) will
be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened
breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 5(b),
that a Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other available
remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and
requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of
showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being
required. The Company shall cause its counsel to issue each legal
opinion referred to in the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions
to the Transfer Agent as follows: (i) at the Closing with respect
to the Common Shares, (ii) upon each exercise of the Warrants
(unless such issuance covered by a prior legal opinion previously
delivered to the Transfer Agent), and (iii) on each date a
registration statement with respect to the issuance or resale of
any of the Securities is declared effective by the SEC. Any fees
(with respect to the Transfer Agent, counsel to the Company or
otherwise) associated with the issuance of such opinions or the
removal of any legends on any of the Securities shall be borne by
the Company.

 

 

10


 



 







 





 


(c)          Legends.
Certificates and any other instruments evidencing the Common Shares
shall not bear any restrictive or other legend. For so long as a
Registration Statement is effective for the Warrant Shares, or as
long as there is an exemption from registration of the resale of
the Warrant Shares under the 1933 Act, certificates and any other
instruments evidencing the Warrant Shares shall not bear any
restrictive or other legend.

 


(d)          FAST
Compliance. While any Warrants remain outstanding, the
Company shall maintain a transfer agent that participates in the
DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program.

Documents.

 


(m)         Since
the date of execution of this Agreement, no event or series of
events shall have occurred that reasonably would have or result in
a Material Adverse Effect.

 


(n)          Reserved.

 


(o)          Such
Buyer shall have received a letter on the letterhead of the
Company, duly executed by the Chief Executive Officer of the
Company, setting forth the wire amounts of each Buyer and the wire
transfer instructions of the Company (the “Flow of Funds
Letter”).

 


(p)          From
the date hereof to the Closing Date, (i) trading in the Common
Stock shall not have been suspended by the SEC or the Principal
Market (except for any suspension of trading of limited duration
agreed to by the Company, which suspension shall be terminated

TERMINATION.







 


In the
event that the Closing shall not have occurred with respect to a
Buyer within five (5) days of the date hereof, then such Buyer
shall have the right to terminate its obligations under this
Agreement with respect to itself at any time on or after the close
of business on such date without liability of such Buyer to any
other party; provided, however, (i) the right to terminate this
Agreement under this Section 8 shall not be available to such
Buyer if the failure of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement to have been consummated by such date is the result of
such Buyer’s breach of this Agreement and (ii) the
abandonment of the sale and purchase of the Common Shares and the
Warrants shall be applicable only to such Buyer providing such
written notice, provided further that no such termination shall
affect any obligation of the Company under this Agreement to
reimburse such Buyer for the expenses described in
Section 4(j) above. Nothing contained in this Section 8
shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any
breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement
or the other Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any
party to compel specific performance by any other party of its
obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction
Documents.

MISCELLANEOUS.







 


(a)          Governing
Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial.
All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement
and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the
internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to
any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of
the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause
the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the
State of New York. The Company and each Buyer hereby irrevocably
submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal
courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for
the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith
or under any of the other Transaction Documents or with any
transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, 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. Each party hereby irrevocably waives
personal service of process and consents to process being served in
any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to
such party at the address for such notices to it under this
Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and
sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained
herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve
process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein
shall be deemed or operate to preclude any Buyer from bringing suit
or taking other legal action against the Company in any other
jurisdiction to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor
of such Buyer. EACH PARTY 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 UNDER ANY
OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF
THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION
CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. 

 


(b)          Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical
counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same
agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been
signed by each party and delivered to the other party. In the event
that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an
e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an
executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid
and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf
such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if
such signature page were an original thereof.

 


(c)          Headings;
Gender. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience
of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the
interpretation of, this Agreement. Unless the context clearly
indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include
the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof.
The terms “including,” “includes,”
“include” and words of like import shall be construed
broadly as if followed by the words “without
limitation.” The terms “herein,”
“hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like
import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision
in which they are found.

 

12


 



 







 





 


(d)          Severability;
Maximum Payment Amounts. If any provision of this Agreement
is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or
unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision
that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall
be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be
valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of
such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining
provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so
modified continues to express, without material change, the
original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof
and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the
provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the
respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or
the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be
conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith
negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable
provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes
as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or
unenforceable provision(s). Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document (and without implication that the following is required or
applicable), it is the intention of the parties that in no event
shall amounts and value paid by the Company and/or any of its
Subsidiaries (as the case may be), or payable to or received by any
of the Buyers, under the Transaction Documents (including without
limitation, any amounts that would be characterized as
“interest” under applicable law) exceed amounts
permitted under any applicable law. Accordingly, if any obligation
to pay, payment made to any Buyer, or collection by any Buyer
pursuant the Transaction Documents is finally judicially determined
to be contrary to any such applicable law, such obligation to pay,
payment or collection shall be deemed to have been made by mutual
mistake of such Buyer, the Company and its Subsidiaries and such
amount shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive
effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may
be, as would not be so prohibited by the applicable law. Such
adjustment shall be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing
or refunding, at the option of such Buyer, the amount of interest
or any other amounts which would constitute unlawful amounts
required to be paid or actually paid to such Buyer under the
Transaction Documents. For greater certainty, to the extent that
any interest, charges, fees, expenses or other amounts required to
be paid to or received by such Buyer under any of the Transaction
Documents or related thereto are held to be within the meaning of
“interest” or another applicable term to otherwise be
violative of applicable law, such amounts shall be pro-rated over
the period of time to which they relate.

 


 (e)          Entire
Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement, the other Transaction
Documents and the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and
thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede
all other prior oral or written agreements between the Buyers, the
Company, its Subsidiaries, their affiliates and Persons acting on
their behalf, including, without limitation, any transactions by
any Buyer with respect to Common Stock or the Securities, and the
other matters contained herein and therein, and this Agreement, the
other Transaction Documents, the schedules and exhibits attached
hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and
therein contain the entire understanding of the parties solely with
respect to the matters covered herein and therein; provided,
however, 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 or any of its
Subsidiaries prior 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 of its Subsidiaries, 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/or any of its
Subsidiaries and any Buyer, or any instruments any Buyer received
from the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date
hereof, and all such agreements and instruments shall continue in
full force and effect. Except as specifically set forth herein or
therein, 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 Holders (as defined below), and any amendment to any
provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions
of this Section 9(e) 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 (A) applies to
less than all of the holders of the Securities then outstanding or
(B) 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); provided further
that any such amendment or waiver that materially and adversely
affects the rights of the Placement Agent shall require the prior
written consent of the Placement Agent. No waiver shall be
effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized
representative of the waiving party, provided that the Required
Holders 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 9(e) 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 (other than
reimbursement of legal fees) 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, all
holders of the Common Shares, or all holders of the Warrants (as
the case may be). From the date hereof and while any Warrants are
outstanding, the Company shall not be permitted to receive any
consideration from a Buyer or a holder of Warrants that is not
otherwise contemplated by the Transaction Documents in order to,
directly or indirectly, induce the Company or any Subsidiary (i) to
treat such Buyer or holder of Warrants in a manner that is more
favorable than to other similarly situated Buyers or holders of
Warrants, as applicable, or (ii) to treat any Buyer(s) or holder(s)
of Warrants in a manner that is less favorable than the Buyer or
holder of Warrants that is paying such consideration; provided,
however, that the determination of whether a Buyer has been treated
more or less favorably than another Buyer shall disregard any
securities of the Company purchased or sold by any Buyer. 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, any Subsidiary
or otherwise. As a material inducement for each Buyer to enter into
this Agreement, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that
(x) 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 and (y) unless a
provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document is
expressly preceded by the phrase “except as disclosed in the
SEC Documents,” nothing contained in any of the SEC Documents

to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and
assigns, including any purchasers of any of the Warrants (but
excluding any purchasers of Underlying Securities, unless pursuant
to a written assignment by such Buyer). The Company shall not
assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of the Required Holders,
including, without limitation, by way of a Fundamental Transaction
(as defined in the Warrants) (unless the Company is in compliance
with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions
set forth in the Warrants). A Buyer may assign some or all of its
rights hereunder in connection with any transfer of any of its
Securities without the consent of the Company, in which event such
assignee shall be deemed to be a Buyer hereunder with respect to
such assigned rights.

 


(h)          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, other than (i)

9(h) and Sections 1(e), 2(e), 2(f), 3(g), 3(ee), 4(j), 4(s), 7(b),
9(e) and 9(i).

 


(i)           Reliance
by the Placement Agent. Each party agrees and acknowledges
that the Placement Agent may rely on the representations,
warranties, agreements and covenants of the Company contained in
this Agreement and may rely on the representations and warranties
of the respective Buyers contained in this Agreement as if such
representations, warranties, agreements, and covenants, as
applicable, were made directly to the Placement Agent. The parties
further agree that the Placement Agent may rely on or, if the
Placement Agent so requests, be specifically named as an addressee
of, the legal opinions to be delivered pursuant to Section 7(b) of
this Agreement.

 


(j)           Exculpation
of Placement Agent. Each party hereto agrees for the express
benefit of each of the Placement Agent, their affiliates and
representatives that:

 


(i)            Neither
the Placement Agent nor any of its affiliates or any of its
representatives (1) has any duties or obligations other than those
specifically set forth herein or in the Engagement Letter; (2)
shall be liable for any improper payment made in accordance with
the information provided by the Company; (3) makes any
representation or warranty, or has any responsibilities as to the
validity, accuracy, value or genuineness of any information,
certificates or documentation delivered by or on behalf of the
Company pursuant to this Agreement or the Transaction Documents or
in connection with any of the transactions contemplated hereby; or
(4) shall be liable (x) for any action taken, suffered or omitted
by any of them in good faith and reasonably believed to be
authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred
upon it by this Agreement or any Transaction Document or (y) for
anything which any of them may do or refrain from doing in
connection with this Agreement or any Transaction Document, except
for such party's own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad
faith.

 


(ii)           The
Placement Agent, and its affiliates and representatives shall be
entitled to (1) rely on, and shall be protected in acting upon, any
certificate, instrument, opinion, notice, letter or any other
document or security delivered to any of them by or on behalf of
the Company, and (2) be indemnified by the Company for acting as
Placement Agent hereunder pursuant the indemnification provisions
set forth in the Engagement Letter.

 


(k)          Survival.
The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants shall
survive the Closing. Each Buyer shall be responsible only for its
own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants
hereunder.

 


 (l)           Further
Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be
done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall
execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates,
instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably
request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the
purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby.

(m)         Indemnification.

 


(i)            In
consideration of each Buyer’s execution and delivery of the
Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and
in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under
the Transaction Documents, the Company shall defend, protect,
indemnify and hold harmless each Buyer and each holder of any
Securities and all of their stockholders, partners, members,
officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and
any of the foregoing Persons’ agents or other representatives
(including, without limitation, those retained in connection with
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the
“Indemnitees”)
from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits,
claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages,
and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any
such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification
hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’
fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”),
incurred by any Indemnitee 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 any Subsidiary in
any of the Transaction Documents, (ii) any breach of any covenant,
agreement or obligation of the Company or any Subsidiary contained
in any of the Transaction Documents or (iii) any cause of action,
suit, proceeding or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee
by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action
brought on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary) or which
otherwise involves such Indemnitee that arises out of or results
from (A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of any
of the Transaction Documents, (B) any transaction financed or to be
financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the
proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, (C) any disclosure
properly made by such Buyer pursuant to Section 4(k), or (D)
the status of such Buyer or holder of the Securities either as an
investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated
by the Transaction Documents or as a party to this Agreement
(including, without limitation, as a party in interest or otherwise
in any action or proceeding for injunctive or other equitable
relief). To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the
Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make
the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of
the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable
law.

 


(ii)           Promptly
after receipt by an Indemnitee under this Section 9(m) of notice of
the commencement of any action or proceeding (including any
governmental action or proceeding) involving an Indemnified
Liability, such Indemnitee shall, if a claim in respect thereof is
to be made against the Company under this Section 9(m), deliver to
the Company a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the
Company shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent
the Company so desires, to assume control of the defense thereof
with counsel mutually satisfactory to the Company and the
Indemnitee; provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall have the
right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of such
counsel to be paid by the Company if: (A) the Company has agreed in
writing to pay such fees and expenses; (B) the Company shall have
failed promptly to assume the defense of such Indemnified Liability
and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee in
any such Indemnified Liability; or (C) the named parties to any
such Indemnified Liability (including any impleaded parties)
include both such Indemnitee and the Company, and such Indemnitee
shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is
likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such
Indemnitee and the Company (in which case, if such Indemnitee
notifies the Company in writing that it elects to employ separate
counsel at the expense of the Company, then the Company shall not
have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall
be at the expense of the Company), provided further, that in the
case of clause (C) above the Company shall not be responsible for
the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one (1) separate
legal counsel for the Indemnitees. The Indemnitee shall reasonably
cooperate with the Company in connection with any negotiation or
defense of any such action or Indemnified Liability by the Company
and shall furnish to the Company all information reasonably
available to the Indemnitee which relates to such action or
Indemnified Liability. The Company shall keep the Indemnitee
reasonably apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or
any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. The Company shall
not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding
effected without its prior written consent, provided, however, that
the Company shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its
consent. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent
of the Indemnitee, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into
any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an
unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff
to such Indemnitee of a release from all liability in respect to
such Indemnified Liability or litigation, and such settlement shall
not include any admission as to fault on the part of the
Indemnitee. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder,
the Company shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnitee
with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating
to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure
to deliver written notice to the Company within a reasonable time
of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve the
Company of any liability to the Indemnitee under this Section 9(m),
except to the extent that the Company is materially and adversely
prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.

 


 (iii)          The
indemnification required by this Section 9(m) shall be made by
periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the
investigation or defense, within ten (10) days after bills are
received or Indemnified Liabilities are incurred.

 


(iv)          The
indemnity agreement contained herein shall be in addition to (A)
any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnitee against the
Company or others, and (B) any liabilities the Company may be
subject to pursuant to the law.

 


(n)          Construction.
The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the
language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and
no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.
No specific representation or warranty shall limit the generality
or applicability of a more general representation or warranty. Each
and every reference to share prices, shares of Common Stock and any
other numbers in this Agreement that relate to the Common Stock
shall be automatically adjusted for any stock splits, stock
dividends, stock combinations, recapitalizations or other similar
transactions that occur with respect to the Common Stock after the
date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement
to the contrary, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained
herein shall constitute a representation or warranty against, or a
prohibition of, any actions with respect to the borrowing of,
arrangement to borrow, identification of the availability of,
and/or securing of, securities of the Company in order for such
Buyer (or its broker or other financial representative) to effect
short sales or similar transactions in the future.

 


(o)          Remedies.
Each Buyer and in the event of assignment by Buyer of its rights
and obligations hereunder, each holder of Securities, shall have
all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and
all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any
time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights
which such holders have under any law. Any Person having any rights
under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce
such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other
security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any
provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights
granted by law. Furthermore, the Company recognizes that in the
event that it or any Subsidiary fails to perform, observe, or
discharge any or all of its or such Subsidiary’s (as the case
may be) obligations under the Transaction Documents, any remedy at
law would inadequate relief to the Buyers. The Company therefore
agrees that the Buyers shall be entitled to specific performance
and/or temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other
equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in any
such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and
without posting a bond or other security. The remedies provided in
this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be
cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under
this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, at law or in
equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other
injunctive relief).

 


(p)          Withdrawal
Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
(and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction
Documents, whenever any Buyer exercises a right, election, demand
or option under a Transaction Document and the Company or any
Subsidiary does not timely perform its related obligations within
the periods therein provided, then such Buyer may rescind or
withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written
notice to the Company or such Subsidiary (as the case may be), any
relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without
prejudice to its future actions and rights.

 


(q)          Payment
Set Aside; Currency. To the extent that the Company makes a
payment or payments to any Buyer hereunder or pursuant to any of
the other Transaction Documents or any of the Buyers enforce or
exercise their rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or
payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any
part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be
fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by
or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the
Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law
(including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, foreign, state
or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to
the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof
originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued
in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or
such enforcement or setoff had not occurred. Unless otherwise
expressly indicated, all dollar amounts referred to in this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are in United States
Dollars (“U.S.
Dollars”), and all amounts owing under this Agreement
and all other Transaction Documents shall be paid in U.S. Dollars.
All amounts denominated in other currencies (if any) shall be
converted into the U.S. Dollar equivalent amount in accordance with
the Exchange Rate on the date of calculation. “Exchange Rate” means, in relation
to any amount of currency to be converted into U.S. Dollars
pursuant to this Agreement, the U.S. Dollar exchange rate as
published in the Wall Street Journal on the relevant date of
calculation.

 


 (r)           Judgment
Currency.

 


(i)            If
for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against the
Company in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document in any court in any jurisdiction it becomes necessary to
convert into any other currency (such other currency being
hereinafter in this Section 9(r) referred to as the
“Judgment
Currency”) an amount due in US Dollars under this
Agreement, the conversion shall be made at the Exchange Rate
prevailing on the Trading Day (as defined in the Warrants)
immediately preceding:

 


(1)          the
date actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any
proceeding in the courts of New York or in the courts of any other
jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on
such date: or

 


(2)          the
date on which the foreign court determines, in the case of any
proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the date as of
which such conversion is made pursuant to Section 9(r)(i)(1)
being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Conversion
Date”).

 


(ii)           If
in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction
referred to in Section 9(r)(i)(1) above, there is a change in
the Exchange Rate prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date
and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the applicable
party shall pay such adjusted amount as may be necessary to ensure
that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at
the Exchange Rate prevailing on the date of payment, will produce
the amount of US Dollars which could have been purchased with the
amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial
order at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the Judgment Conversion
Date.

 


(iii)          Any
amount due from the Company under this provision shall be due as a
separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained
for any other amounts due under or in respect of this Agreement or
any other Transaction Document.

 


(s)          Independent
Nature of Buyers’ Obligations and Rights. The
obligations of each Buyer under 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 Transaction Document.
Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and
no action taken by any Buyer pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be
deemed to constitute the Buyers as, and the Company acknowledges
that the Buyers do not so constitute, a partnership, an
association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity,
or create a presumption that the Buyers are in any way acting in
concert or as a group or entity, and the Company shall not assert
any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents or any matters, and the
Company acknowledges that the Buyers are not acting in concert or
as a group, and the Company shall not assert any such claim, with
respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the
Transaction Documents. The decision of each Buyer to purchase
Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by
such Buyer independently of any other Buyer. Each Buyer
acknowledges that no other Buyer has acted as agent for such Buyer
in connection with such Buyer making its investment hereunder and
that no other Buyer will be acting as agent of such Buyer in
connection with monitoring such Buyer’s investment in the
Securities or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents.
The Company and each Buyer confirms that each Buyer has
independently participated with the Company and its Subsidiaries in
the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the
advice of its own counsel and advisors. 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 any 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 use of a single
agreement to effectuate the purchase and sale of the Securities
contemplated hereby was solely in the control of the Company, not
the action or decision of any Buyer, and was done solely for the
convenience of the Company and its Subsidiaries and not because it
was required or requested to do so by any Buyer. It is expressly
understood and agreed that each provision contained in this
Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between the
Company, each Subsidiary and a Buyer, solely, and not between the
Company, its Subsidiaries and the Buyers collectively and not
between and among the Buyers.
