Each of the SEC Documents, as of the respective dates thereof (or, if amended or superseded by a filing prior to the Closing Date, then on the date of such filing), did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.  Each SEC Document, as it may have been subsequently amended by filings made by the Company with the SEC prior to the date hereof, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to such SEC Document.


 


(ii) Sarbanes-Oxley.  The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company have signed, and the Company has furnished to the SEC, all certifications required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

The Company is otherwise in compliance in all material respects with all applicable effective provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules and regulations issued thereunder by the SEC.  The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

(u) General Solicitation.  Neither the Company nor any other person or entity authorized by the Company to act on its behalf has engaged in a general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D of the Securities Act) of investors with respect to offers or sales of the Shares.  The Company has offered the Shares for sale only to the Purchasers and certain other “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501 under the Securities Act.


 


(v) Listing Matters.  The Common Stock of the Company is quoted on the OTCQB under the ticker symbol “MDFI.”  The issuance and sale of the Shares under this Agreement does not contravene the rules and regulations of the OTCQB.


 


(w) Investment Company.  The Company and each of its Subsidiaries is not now, and after the sale of the Shares under this Agreement and the application of the net proceeds from the sale of the Shares described in Section 1(b) herein will not be, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.


 


(y)           No Integrated Offering.  Neither the Company, nor any Affiliate of the Company, nor any person acting on its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising with respect to any security or made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause the offering or issuance of the Shares to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act which would cause Regulation D or any other applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act to be unavailable, or would cause any applicable state securities laws exemptions or any applicable stockholder approval provisions exemptions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated to be unavailable, nor will the Company take any action or steps that would cause the offering or issuance of the Shares to be integrated with other offerings.

Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any liability to pay any fees, commissions or other similar compensation to any broker, finder, investment banker, financial advisor or other similar person in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  The Purchasers shall have no obligation with respect to any fees or with respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other persons for fees of a type contemplated in this Section that may be due in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.







(aa)           Pensions; Benefits.  (a)  Neither the Company nor any subsidiary or ERISA Affiliate maintains or contributes to any Plan other than those disclosed in the SEC Documents.







(i) The Company and each ERISA Affiliate is in compliance with ERISA and no contributions required to be made by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate to any pension plan are overdue.


 


(ii) No liability to the PBGC has been or is expected to be incurred by the Company or any ERISA Affiliate with respect to any pension plan that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(iii) Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred or presently expects to incur any withdrawal liability under Title IV of ERISA with respect to any multiemployer plan.  There have been no “reportable events” (as such term is defined in section 4043 of ERISA) with respect to any multiemployer plan that could result in the termination of such multiemployer plan and give rise to a liability of the Company or any ERISA Affiliate in respect thereof.  Neither the Company nor any subsidiary has incurred or is expect to incur liability under Sections 412 or 4971 of the Code; and each “pension plan” for which the Company would have any liability that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has been determined by the Internal Revenue Service to be so qualified and nothing has occurred, whether by action or by failure to act, which could reasonably be expected to cause the loss of such qualification.


 


For purposes of this section 3(aa) “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986; “ERISA” means the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; “ERISA Affiliate” means any person required to be aggregated with the Company or any subsidiary of the Company under Sections 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code; “PBGC” means the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation; and “Plan” means any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement, whether oral or written, maintained or contributed to by the Company, any subsidiary of the Company or any ERISA Affiliate, or with respect to which the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate may incur liability.







(bb)           Application of Takeover Protections.  The Company and its Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation (or similar charter documents) or the laws of its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable to the Purchasers as a result of the Purchasers and the Company fulfilling their obligations or exercising their rights under this Agreement, including without limitation as a result of the Company’s issuance of the Shares and the Purchasers’ ownership of the Shares.







(cc)           Purchaser Representations.  The Company acknowledges and agrees that no Purchaser makes or has made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in Section 4 hereof.







(dd)           Solvency.  Based on the financial condition of the Company as of the Closing Date after giving effect to the receipt by the Company of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares hereunder, (i) the fair saleable value of the Company’s assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of the Company’s existing debts and other liabilities (including known contingent liabilities) as they mature; (ii) the Company’s assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted by the Company, and projected capital requirements and capital availability thereof; and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company, together with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its liabilities when such amounts are required to be paid.  The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt).  The SEC Documents set forth as of the dates thereof all outstanding secured and unsecured Indebtedness of the Company or any subsidiary, or for which the Company or any subsidiary has commitments.  For the purposes of this Agreement, “Indebtedness” shall mean (a) any liabilities for borrowed money or amounts owed in excess of $50,000 (other than trade accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of business), (b) all guaranties, endorsements and other contingent obligations in respect of Indebtedness of others, whether or not the same are or should be reflected in the Company’s balance sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties by endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary course of business; and (c) the present value of any lease payments in excess of $50,000 due under leases required to be capitalized in accordance with GAAP. Neither the Company nor any subsidiary is in default with respect to any Indebtedness.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that each of the Purchasers is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.  The Company further acknowledges that no Purchaser is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar capacity) with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and any advice given by any Purchaser or any of their respective representatives or agents in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby is merely incidental to the Purchasers’ purchase of the Shares.  The Company further represents to each Purchaser that the Company’s decision to enter into this Agreement has been based solely on the independent evaluation of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Company and its representatives.







(gg)           Manipulation of Price.  The Company has not, and to its knowledge no one acting on its behalf has, (i) taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or to result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Shares, (ii) sold, bid for, purchased, or, paid any compensation for soliciting purchases of, any of the Shares or (iii) paid or agreed to pay to any person any compensation for soliciting another to purchase any other securities of the Company, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), compensation paid to the Company’s placement agent and any approved broker-dealers in connection with the placement of the Shares.







(hh)           Legend Removal.  The Company agrees, upon a Purchaser’s reasonable request, to reissue certificates representing any of the Shares without the legend set forth in Section 4(j)(i) below: (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such securities is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such securities pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming the transferor is not an affiliate of the Company), or (iii) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including controlling judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the Commission). Following the effective date of a registration statement, which includes the Shares, or at such earlier time as a legend is no longer required for the Shares, the Company will, promptly following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a legended certificate representing such securities, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such securities that is free from all restrictive legends.  If requested by a Purchaser, certificates for securities subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the transfer agent of the Company to the Purchasers by crediting the account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”).







(jj)           Equal Treatment of Purchasers.  No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Purchaser to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of this Agreement unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the Purchasers under this Agreement.  For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Purchaser by the Company and negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and is intended for the Company to treat the Purchasers as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of Shares or otherwise.







4. Representations, Warranties and Certain Agreements of The Purchasers.  Each Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company, severally and not jointly, and agrees that:


 


(a) Organization, Good Standing and Qualification.  The Purchaser has all corporate, membership or partnership power and authority required to enter into this Agreement and the other agreements, instruments and documents contemplated hereby, and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.


 


(b) Authorization.  The execution of this Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, membership or partnership action on the part of the Purchaser.  This Agreement constitutes the Purchaser’s legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as may be limited by (A) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (B) the effect of rules of law governing the availability of equitable remedies and (ii) as rights to indemnity or contribution may be limited under federal or state securities laws or by principles of public policy thereunder.


 


(c) Litigation.  There is no Action pending to which such Purchaser is a party that is reasonably likely to prevent, enjoin, alter or delay the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.


 


(d) Purchase for Own Account.  The Shares are being acquired for investment for the Purchaser’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the public resale or distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act, without prejudice, however, to such Purchaser’s right at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such securities in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws and as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement.  The Purchaser also represents that it has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Shares.


 


(e) Investment Experience.  The Purchaser understands that the purchase of the Shares involves substantial risk.  The Purchaser has experience as an investor in securities of companies and acknowledges that it can bear the economic risk of its investment in the Shares and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment in the Shares and protecting its own interests in connection with this investment.


 


(f) Accredited Investor Status.  The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.


 


(g) Reliance Upon Purchaser’s Representations.  The Purchaser understands that the issuance and sale of the Shares to it will not be registered under the Securities Act on the ground that such issuance and sale will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof, and that the Company’s reliance on such exemption is based on each Purchaser’s representations set forth herein.


 


(h) Receipt of Information.  The Purchaser has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the issuance and sale of the Shares and the business, properties, prospects and financial condition of the Company and to obtain any additional information requested and has received and considered all information it deems relevant to make an informed decision to purchase the Shares.  Neither such inquiries nor any other investigation conducted by or on behalf of such Purchaser or its representatives or counsel shall modify, amend or affect such Purchaser’s right to rely on the truth, accuracy and completeness of such information and the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement.


 


(i) Restricted Securities.  The Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and will not sell, offer to sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise transfer any of the Shares unless (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, (ii) such holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company, to the effect that a sale, assignment or transfer of the Shares may be made without registration under the Securities Act and the transferee agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or (iii) such holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances (in the form of seller and broker representation letters) that the Shares can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Purchaser may transfer (without restriction and without the need for an opinion of counsel) the Shares to its Affiliates (as defined below) provided that each such Affiliate is an “accredited investor” under Regulation D, and such Affiliate agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and shall have the rights of a Purchaser hereunder.

For the purposes of this Agreement, an “Affiliate” of any specified Purchaser means any other person or entity directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified Purchaser.  For purposes of this definition, “control” means the power to direct the management and policies of such person or firm, directly or indirectly, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.







(j) Legends.


 


(i) Shares. The Purchaser agrees that the certificates for the Shares shall bear the following legend and that the Purchaser will comply with the restrictions on transfer set forth in such legend:


 


“THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY.”


 


The Company acknowledges and agrees that a Purchaser may from time to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or all of the Shares to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and who agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, such Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Shares to the pledgees or secured parties. Further, no notice shall be required of such pledge. At the appropriate Purchaser’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Shares may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Shares, the preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act or other applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of selling stockholders thereunder.


 


In addition, the Purchaser agrees that the Company may place stop transfer orders with its transfer agent with respect to such certificates in order to implement the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Agreement.  The appropriate portion of the legend and the stop transfer orders will be removed promptly (but in no event later than three (3) business days) upon delivery to the Company of such satisfactory evidence as reasonably may be required by the Company that such legend or stop orders are not required to ensure compliance with the Securities Act.  In addition, upon the declaration of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement which includes the Shares, the Company shall cause its counsel to deliver a blanket opinion (or separate opinions if the transfer agent will not accept a blanket opinion) to its transfer agent to cause the stock certificates evidencing the Shares to be issued to the Purchasers free of any Securities Act restrictive legends assuming compliance with the prospectus delivery requirements, to the extent required by Rule 172 of the Securities Act. Each of the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Company will endeavor to remove any Securities Act restrictive legends pursuant to this Section j(ii) upon the representation contained herein that the Purchasers will comply with the prospectus delivery requirements, to the extent required by Rule 172 of the Securities Act.


 


(k) Questionnaires.  The Purchaser has completed or caused to be completed the Stock Certificate Questionnaire, and the answers  to such questionnaires are true and correct as of the date of this Agreement; provided, that the Purchasers shall be entitled to update such information by providing written notice thereof to the Company before the effective date of the Registration Statement.


 


(l) Prohibited Transactions.  During the last thirty (30) days prior to the date hereof, neither such Purchaser nor any Affiliate of such Purchaser, foreign or domestic, has, directly or indirectly, effected or agreed to effect any “short sale” (as defined in Rule 200 under Regulation SHO), whether or not against the box, established any “put equivalent position” (as defined in Rule 16a-1(h) under the 1934 Act) with respect to the Common Stock, borrowed or pre-borrowed any shares of Common Stock, or granted any other right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to the Common Stock or with respect to any security that includes, relates to or derived any significant part of its value from the Common Stock or otherwise sought to hedge its position in the Company’ securities (each, a “Prohibited Transaction”).


 


5. Conditions to The Purchaser’s Obligations at the Closing. The obligations of the Purchasers under Section 1(b) of this Agreement are subject to the fulfillment or waiver, on or before the Closing, of each of the following conditions:

7. Registration Rights.


 


(a) If at any time the Company shall determine to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (including pursuant to a demand of any Shareholder of the Company exercising registration rights) any of its Common Stock (other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8), it shall send to the Purchasers, written notice of such determination at least thirty (30) days prior to the filing of any registration statement and, if within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice, the Purchasers, shall so request in writing, the Company shall use its best efforts to include in such registration statement all of the Registrable Shares that such Purchasers request to be registered, subject to the rules, regulations, and interpretations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, without limitation Rule 415 under the Securities Act.  For purposes of this Article III, the term "Registrable Shares" means and includes any of the Shares, as well as any shares of Common Stock of the Company issued or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security or which is issued as a result of a stock split, dividend or other distribution with respect to or in exchange for or in replacement of the Shares. Notwithstanding the above, as to any particular Registrable Shares, such securities shall cease to be Registrable Shares when (i) a registration statement has been declared effective by the SEC and such Registrable Shares have been disposed of by pursuant to such registration statement, (ii) such Registrable Shares have been sold under circumstances under which all of the applicable conditions of Rule 144 are met, or (iii) such time as such Registrable Shares have been otherwise transferred to holders who may trade such shares without restriction under the Securities Act..







(b) If such registration involves an underwritten public offering and the total amount of securities, including Registrable Shares, requested by shareholders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities that the managing underwriter determines in its reasonable discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Registrable Shares, which the managing underwriter determines in its reasonable discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the securities so included to be apportioned in the following order of priority (A) first, to any Shareholder of the Company exercising registration rights pursuant to which the Company initiated the registration, (B) second, to the Company, (C) third, among the Purchasers requesting to register Registrable Shares on a pro rata basis according to each Purchasers’ ownership of Registrable Shares relative to all other Purchasers’ ownership of Registrable Shares who have requested registration hereunder, and, (D) fourth, to the extent additional securities may be included therein, pro rata among the other selling Shareholders according to the total amount of securities owned by each such Shareholder); provided, however, that in any registration other than the initial public offering of the Company's Common Stock the number of shares requested to be included by the Purchasers shall not be reduced below 20% of the total number of securities to be provided in the registration. For purposes of the preceding parenthetical concerning apportionment, for any selling Shareholder which is a holder of Registrable Shares and which is a partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners and Shareholders of such Purchasers, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons shall be deemed to be a single "selling Shareholder," and any pro-rata reduction with respect to such "selling Shareholder" shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such "selling Shareholder," as defined in this sentence. If any Purchaser disapproves of the terms of such underwriting, he may elect to withdraw his or its Registrable Shares therefrom by written notice to the Company and the underwriter.







8. Miscellaneous.


 


(a) Successors and Assigns.  The terms and conditions of this Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties.

A Purchaser may assign its rights under this Agreement to any person to whom the Purchaser assigns or transfers any Shares, provided that such transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and such transfer is in compliance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement and permitted by federal and state securities laws.


 


(b) Governing Law.  This Agreement will be governed by and construed and enforced under the internal laws of the State of Florida, without reference to principles of conflict of laws or choice of laws.
