Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Company




The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, as follows:

3.1Organization; Good Standing and Qualification.  The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite corporate power and authority to own its property and carry on its business as now conducted.  The Company is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and in each jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary.

3.2Corporate Power.  The Company has all requisite corporate power to execute and deliver this Agreement, the Note and subject to the abovementioned stockholder approval, the Warrant in favor of the Purchaser and any other document provided for herein or by any of the foregoing (collectively, as the same may from to time be amended, modified, supplemented or restated, the “Loan Documents”) and to carry out and perform its obligations under the terms of the Loan Documents and to, subject to the abovementioned stockholder approval,  issue CDIs in accordance with the terms thereof.

(a)Authorization.  The execution and delivery of each of the Loan Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Note, the issuance of the Warrant, the reservation of the Common Stock underlying the CDIs issuable upon conversion of the Note (the “Conversion CDIs”), the reservation of the Common Stock underlying the CDIs issuable upon exercise of the Warrant (the “Warrant CDIs” and, together with the Note, the Warrant, the Conversion CDIs and the Common Stock, “Securities”) and the issuance of the Conversion CDIs and the Warrant CDIs, was duly authorized by the Company’s board of directors.  Other than those consents and authorizations obtained by the Company prior to the date hereof that are in full force and effect on the Closing Date and except for any required stockholder approval of the Company as set forth in Section 2(c) of the Note and in this Agreement, no further consent or authorization is required by the Company, its board of directors or its stockholders.  Each of the Loan Documents has been (or in the case of the Warrant, will be) duly executed and delivered by the Company, and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to laws of general application relating to equitable principles, bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief of debtors.  Upon conversion of the Note into Conversion CDIs in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Note, the Conversion CDIs will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free of any liens or encumbrances (other than as set out in Section 2(f) of the Note).  Upon the exercise of the Warrant in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Warrant, the Warrant CDIs will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free of any liens or encumbrances (other than as set out in Section 5(b) of the Warrant). The issuance of the Note (and the Conversion CDIs) and the Warrant (and the 

 



 

Warrant CDIs) pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement will not give rise to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal granted by the Company, and the Note (and the Conversion CDIs) and the Warrant (and the Warrant CDIs) will be issued in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws, and will be free of any liens or encumbrances; provided, however, that the Note and the Warrant (and the underlying securities) may be subject to restrictions on transfer as set out in the Loan Documents or under state and/or federal securities laws as set forth herein or as otherwise required by such laws at the time the transfer is proposed.  The issuance and sale of the Note (and the Conversion CDIs) and the Warrant (and the Warrant CDIs) do not and will not cause any dilution adjustment in any existing securities of the Company, and the Purchaser hereby waives any dilution adjustment that might otherwise result from the issuance and sale of the Note (and the Conversion CDIs) or the Warrant (and the Warrant CDIs) pursuant to the terms of any existing security held by the Purchaser.

3.3Governmental Consents.  All consents, approvals, orders, or authorizations of, or registrations, qualifications, designations, declarations, or filings with, any governmental authority, required on the part of the Company in connection with the valid execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the offer, sale or issuance of the Note, the Conversion CDIs, the Warrant and the Warrant CDIs, or the consummation of any other transaction contemplated hereby shall have been obtained and will be effective at the Closing, except for (i) any stockholder approval described by Section 2(c) of the Note and this Agreement and (ii) any notices required or permitted to be filed with certain foreign, state and/or federal securities commissions or stock exchanges, which notices will be filed on a timely basis.

3.4No Conflicts.  The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Note and the Warrant and the reservation for issuance and issuance of the Conversion CDIs and the Warrant CDIs) will not (i) result in a violation of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Company or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any material agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree including federal and state securities laws and regulations applicable to the Company or by which any property or asset of the Company is bound or affected.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser agrees that the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall not conflict with or constitute a default under (x) the Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 15, 2017, and amended as of December 31, 2018, March 29, 2019 and April 30, 2019, between the Company and the Purchaser, including, without limitation, the restriction on additional indebtedness set forth in Section 3.14 thereof, (y) the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated May 30, 2018, between the Company and the Purchaser, or (z) the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated March 15, 2019, between the Company and the Purchaser.

 



 

3.5Offering.  Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser contained in Section 4 hereof, the offer, issue, and sale of the Note and the Warrant is and will be exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and has been registered or qualified (or is exempt from registration and qualification) under the registration, permit, or qualification requirements of all applicable state securities laws.

3.6Use of Proceeds.  The Company shall use the proceeds of the sale and issuance of the Note for general corporate purposes.

3.7Delivery of SEC Filings. The Company has provided the Purchaser with copies of the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, and all other reports filed by the Company pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”) since the filing of the Annual Report on Form 10-K and prior to the date hereof (collectively, the “SEC Filings”); which reports represent all filings required of the Company pursuant to the 1934 Act for such period. During the two (2) years prior to the date hereof, the Company has filed all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it with the SEC pursuant to the reporting requirements of 1934 Act (all of the foregoing filed prior to the date hereof or prior to the date of the Closing, and all exhibits included therein and financial statements, notes and schedules thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein being hereinafter referred to as the “SEC Documents”).  As of their respective filing dates, or, if amended or superseded by a subsequent filing, as of the date of the last such amendment or superseding filing, the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Documents, and none of the SEC Documents, at the time they were filed or, if amended or superseded by a subsequent filing, as of the date of the last such amendment or superseding filing, 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 filing dates, or, if amended or superseded by a subsequent filing, as of the date of the last such amendment or superseding filing, the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto.  Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto, or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company as of the dates thereof and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments).

3.8Conduct of Business; Regulatory Permits.  To the knowledge of the Company, the Company is not in violation of any term of, or in default under, its Certificate of Incorporation, as amended and as in effect on the date hereof, or any certificate of designation of an outstanding series of stock of the Company or Bylaws, as amended and as in effect on the date hereof.  The Company is not in violation of any judgment, decree or order or any statute, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to the Company, and the Company does not and will not conduct its business 

 



 

in violation of any of the foregoing, except for possible violations which could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company is not in violation of any of the rules, regulations or requirements of the ASX (defined below) and, assuming the Note and Warrant are issued, has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances that would reasonably lead to suspension of its securities by the ASX in the foreseeable future.  Except as set forth in its SEC Filings, the Company possesses all certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal, state or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct its business, and the Company has not received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate, authorization or permit.

3.9Absence of Litigation.  There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by the SEC, the ASX, any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, the Securities or any of the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ officers or directors, whether of a civil or criminal nature or otherwise, which, if adversely determined, would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or financial condition. 

3.10Securities Laws.  The Company shall timely make all filings and reports relating to the issuance of the Securities required under applicable securities laws, including filing any notice of sale of securities required by applicable law or regulation and complying with any applicable “blue sky” laws of the states of the United States. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligations under this Section 3.10. The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any “security” (as defined in the Act) that could be integrated with the issuance of the Note or the Warrant in a manner that could require the registration of the Note or the Warrant under the Act. 

3.11Efforts to Obtain Stockholder Approval.  The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any stockholder approval described in Section 2(c) of the Note in respect of the Note and the same form of approval in respect of the Warrant. The Company covenants that its proposal to stockholders in respect of approval of the Warrant issuance will be interconditional with its proposal to stockholders in respect of approval of issuance of CDIs upon conversion of the Note, such that if either proposal is not approved, then neither proposal may be approved.

Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser




The Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

4.1Purchase for Own Account.  The Purchaser understands that the Securities have not been registered under the Act and the Purchaser is acquiring the Securities for its own account and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted from registration.  The Purchaser represents that, if it is permitted to acquire any Securities under the Note or the Warrant, it is acquiring the Securities solely for its own account and beneficial interest for investment and not for sale or with a view to distribution of the Securities or any part thereof, has no present intention of selling (in connection with a distribution or otherwise), granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same.

 



 

4.2Information and Sophistication.  Without lessening or obviating the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 3, the Purchaser hereby: (i) acknowledges that it has received all the information it has requested from the Company including, but not limited to, the SEC Filings,  (ii) represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the Company, its business and the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities and (iii) further represents that it has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risk of this investment.

4.3Ability to Bear Economic Risk.  The Purchaser acknowledges that investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk, and represents that it is able, without materially impairing its financial condition, to hold the Securities for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete loss of its investment.

4.4Rule 144.  The Purchaser is aware that none of the Securities may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 adopted under the Act unless certain conditions are met, including, among other things, the existence of a public market for the shares, the availability of certain current public information about the Company, the resale following the required holding period under Rule 144 and the number of shares being sold during any three month period not exceeding specified limitations.

4.5Accredited Investor Status.  The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 under the Act.

4.6Regulation S. In issuing and selling the Securities, the Company may be relying upon the “safe harbor” provided by Regulation S and/or on Section 4(2) under the Act; it is a condition to the availability of the Regulation S “safe harbor” that the Securities not be offered or sold in the United States or to a U.S. person until the expiration of a one-year “distribution compliance period” (or a six-month “distribution compliance period,” if the issuer is a “reporting issuer,” as defined in Regulation S) following the closing; and notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the expiration of the one-year “distribution compliance period” (or six-month “distribution compliance period,” if the issuer is a “reporting issuer,” as defined in Regulation S) after the closing (the “Restricted Period”), the Note, the Warrant and the underlying securities may, subject to any restrictions contained in the Note or the Warrant, as applicable, be offered and sold by the holder thereof only if such offer and sale is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement and the Note or the Warrant, as applicable, and either: (A) if the offer or sale is within the United States or to or for the account of a U.S. person (as such terms are defined in Regulation S), the securities are offered and sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act or pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act; or (B) the offer and sale is outside the United States and to other than a U.S. person. If the Purchaser is not a United States person, the Purchaser hereby represents that the Purchaser is satisfied as to the full observance of the laws of the Purchaser’s jurisdiction applicable to the Purchaser in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Securities, including (i) the legal requirements within the Purchaser’s jurisdiction for the purchase of the Securities, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale or transfer of such Securities. The Purchaser’s subscription and payment for, and the Purchaser’s continued beneficial ownership of the Securities, will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of the Purchaser’s jurisdiction that are applicable to the Purchaser.

 



 

4.7Rule 506(d).  If the Purchaser beneficially owns twenty percent (20%) or more of the outstanding voting securities of the Company, calculated in accordance with Rule 506(d) of Regulation D of the Act, or may designate a director of the Company, the Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company that the Purchaser has not been convicted of any of the felonies or misdemeanors or been subject to any of the orders, judgments, decrees or other conditions set forth in Rule 506(d) of Regulation D of the Act.

4.8Further Limitations on Disposition.  Without in any way limiting the representations set forth above and subject to any restrictions contained in the Note and the Warrant, as applicable, the Purchaser further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Securities unless and until:

(a)There is then in effect a Registration Statement under the Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such Registration Statement; or

(b)The Purchaser shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and if reasonably requested by the Company, the Purchaser shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not require registration under the Act or any applicable state securities laws.

(c)Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) above, but subject to the terms of the Note and the Warrant, as applicable, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by the Purchaser to (i) any shareholder, partner, retired partner, member or former member of the Purchaser for no additional consideration or (ii) any affiliate, including affiliated funds, for no additional consideration, in each case if all transferees agree in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the same extent as if they were the Purchaser hereunder.

(d)Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) above, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the Securities may be pledged by the Purchaser, and its successors and assigns, in connection with a bona fide margin agreement or other loan or financing arrangement that is secured by the Securities, provided that any pledge of those Securities does not constitute an offer of those Securities for sale within 12 months after their issue such that it would require disclosure under section 707(3) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth).  The pledge of Securities shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Securities hereunder, and no Person effecting a pledge of Securities shall be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  The Company hereby agrees to execute and deliver such documentation as a pledgee of the Securities may reasonably request, at the Purchaser’s expense, in connection with a pledge of the Securities to such pledgee by the Purchaser and any successor or assignee.

 



 

4.9Legends.  The Purchaser understands that any securities issued upon conversion of the Note or exercise of the Warrant, may bear one or all of the following legends:

(a) “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SALE OR DISTRIBUTION OF SUCH SHARES MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY OR OTHER EVIDENCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.”

(b)Any legend set forth in or required by another section of this Agreement, the Note or the Warrant, as applicable.

(c)Any legend required by the securities laws of any state or country to the extent such laws are applicable to the securities represented by the certificate so legended.

4.10Market Standoff.  The Purchaser agrees not to sell any of the Securities during a period specified by the representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) following the effective date of the initial registration statement of the Company filed under the Act, so long as all officers, directors, and 1% stockholders have executed similar agreements and are similarly restricted from selling the Company’s stock.

4.11Foreign Ownership Restrictions.  The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that in order to ensure that US persons do not purchase any CDIs that may be issued to it, a number of procedures governing the trading and clearing of CDIs, while the Company is listed on the ASX, will be implemented, including the application to any CDIs issued to it of the status of Foreign Ownership Restrictions securities under the ASX Settlement Operating Rules and the addition of the notation “FORUS” to the CDI description on ASX trading screens and elsewhere, which will inform the market of the prohibition of US persons acquiring CDIs.
