There are no material loss contingencies (as such term is used in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, or any successor thereto, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board) of or affecting the Company which are required to be disclosed or for which adequate provision was required to be made on the balance sheet included in the Interim Financial Statements or in the Audited Financial Statements which have not been disclosed or for which adequate provision has not been made on the balance sheet included in the Interim Financial Statements or in the Audited Financial Statements or in the notes thereto.



- 6 -








	3.13	Insurance.





 


The Company maintains adequate insurance covering the risks of the Company, if any, of such types and in such amounts and with such deductibles as are customary for other companies engaged in similar lines of business.  All insurance held by the Company is in full force and effect and is issued by insurers of recognized responsibility.


 



	3.14	Title to Assets, Properties and Rights.





 


The Company has good and marketable title (or a valid leasehold interest or license) to all of the assets (whether real, personal or mixed) reflected as being owned (or leased or licensed) by the Company on the balance sheet included in the Interim Financial Statements (except for those assets subsequently disposed of in the ordinary course of business for fair value), free and clear of all Liens, except for (a) those Liens set forth on Schedule 3.14; (b) Liens for current Taxes, assessments and other governmental charges not yet due and payable and for which adequate reserves have been established on the books of the Company; (c) easements, covenants, conditions and restrictions (whether or not of record) as to which no material violation or encroachment exists or, if such violation or encroachment exists, as to which the cure of such violation or encroachment would not materially interfere with the conduct of the Company’s business as presently conducted; (d) any zoning or other governmentally established restrictions or encumbrances; (e) worker’s or unemployment compensation Liens arising in the ordinary course of business; (f) mechanic’s, materialman’s, supplier’s, vendor’s or similar Liens arising in the ordinary course of business securing amounts which are not delinquent; and (g) those Liens that do not, individually or cumulatively, have or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company.


 



	3.15	Taxes.





 


The Company has timely filed all material tax returns that are required to be filed, and has paid all Taxes as shown on such returns and on all assessments received by it to the extent that such Taxes have become due, except to the extent the Company is contesting any such assessment in good faith.  All such returns were true and correct in all material respects. The Company has not received notice of any material tax deficiency proposed or assessed against it, and has not executed any waiver of any statute of limitations on the assessment or collection of any Tax that has not yet expired.  None of the Company’s tax returns is currently being audited by governmental authorities, and no taxing authority has notified (or threatened) the Company, orally or in writing, that such taxing authority will or may audit any such return.  The Company has complied with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), U.S. Treasury regulations and any state, local or foreign law relating to the payment and withholding of Taxes relating to the Company, and to the Company’s knowledge, the Company has, within the time and in the manner prescribed by applicable law, paid over to the proper taxing authorities all amounts required to be so withheld and paid over relating to the Company. The charges, reserves and accruals on the books of the Company in respect of Taxes and other governmental charges are adequate.



- 7 -








	3.16	Litigation and Other Proceedings.





 


There are no Proceedings pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened against the Company, whether at law or in equity, whether civil or criminal in nature, that could reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on the Company.

Buyer has not retained any investment banker, broker or finder in connection with the purchase of the Notes or the Warrants.

Buyer has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents and any and all instruments necessary or appropriate in order to effectuate fully the terms of each such agreement and all related transactions and to perform its obligations under each such agreement.

(a)            Subject to this Section 5.3, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each holder of the Notes (each, a “Holder”) that: (i) the principal of, and interest on, the Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the holders of a Note thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms thereof and (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.  Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately.  Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.


 


(b)           The Guarantors hereby agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Agreement, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.  Each Guarantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Agreement.



- 10 -







(c)            If any Holder is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Company or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to such Holder, this guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect.


 


(d)            Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby.  Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in the Notes for the purposes of this guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in the Notes, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this guarantee. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under this guarantee.


 


(e)            Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Title 11 of the U.S. Code or any similar federal or state law for the relief of debtors, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any guarantee.  To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Section 5.3, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.


 


(f)            Within five Business Days (or such extended period as the Requisite Holders may allow) of the acquisition or creation of any direct or indirect subsidiary, the Company shall cause such subsidiary to execute and to deliver to the Holders a Notation of Guarantee.


 



	5.4	Anti-Dilution.





 


(a)            Prior to the Termination Date, if the Company shall issue shares of Common Stock (or securities exercisable or convertible into Common Stock) for a price per share that is less than the exercise price of the Warrants issued pursuant to Section 1.2 (a “Dilutive Issuance”), then the Company shall issue to each Buyer a Warrant (in substantially the form attached as Exhibit C but with an exercise price equal to the share price of the Dilutive Issuance) to purchase shares of Common Stock in an amount equal to: ((A) / (B)) – (C), where:


 


(A) = such Buyer’s Subscription Amount;



- 11 -







(B) = the price per share of the Dilutive Issuance; and


 


(C) = such Buyer’s Warrant Amount.


 


(b)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5.4 shall not apply to issuance of shares of Excluded Stock.
