            3.1
 	
            Representations and Warranties of the Company.
 

Except as set forth under the corresponding section of the Disclosure Schedules delivered concurrently herewith, the Company hereby makes the following representations and warranties as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date to each Purchaser:

 (a)            Subsidiaries. Except as listed in Schedule 3.1(a), the Company has no direct or indirect Subsidiaries. 

 (b)            Organization and Qualification. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries is an entity duly incorporated or otherwise organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization (as applicable), with the requisite corporate power and authority to own and use its properties and assets and to carry on its business as currently conducted. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any of the provisions of its respective certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational or charter documents.  Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries is duly qualified to conduct business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each
jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the case may be, would not have or result in (i) a material adverse effect on the legality, validity or enforceability of any Transaction Document, (ii) a material adverse effect on the business or financial condition of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (iii) a material adverse effect on the Company's ability to perform in any material respect on a timely basis its obligations under any Transaction Document (any of (i), (ii) or (iii) being referred to herein as a “Material Adverse Effect”).

 (c)             Authorization; Enforceability. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by each of the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its obligations thereunder. The execution and delivery of each of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated thereby (including, but not limited to, the sale and delivery of the Shares and Warrants) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company and no further corporate action is required by the Company in connection therewith.  The issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants has been duly authorized by all
necessary action on the part of the Company and no further action is 

 

7

 

required by the Company in connection therewith.  Each Transaction Document has been (or upon delivery will have been) duly executed by the Company and, when delivered in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by rules of law governing specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies and (iii) to the extent the indemnification provisions contained in the Transaction Documents may be limited by applicable federal or state securities laws.

 (d)            No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated thereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or violate any provision of the Company's or any of its Subsidiaries' certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational or charter documents, or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event that 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 (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) of, any agreement, credit facility, debt or other instrument (evidencing a Company or its Subsidiary’s debt
or otherwise of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) or other understanding to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or affected, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction of any court or governmental authority to which the Company or a of its Subsidiaries is subject (including federal and state securities laws and regulations), or by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or affected, except, in the case of clause (ii), where such conflict, default or violation would not have or result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 (e)            Filings, Consents and Approvals. The Company is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority or other Person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Transaction Documents, other than (i) the filing with the Commission of the Registration Statement, the application(s) to each Trading Market for the listing of the Shares and Warrant Shares for trading thereon in the time and manner required thereby, Form D and applicable Blue Sky filings, and (ii) such as have already been obtained or such exemptive filings as are required to be made under applicable
securities laws.

 (f)             Issuance of the Securities. The Securities are duly authorized and, when issued and paid for in accordance with the Transaction Documents, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free and clear of all Liens, other than any Liens created by or imposed on the holders thereof through no action of the Company.  The Company has reserved from its duly authorized capital stock (i) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.

(g)            Capitalization.

 

8

 

 (i)             The entire authorized capital stock of the Company consists of (A)  100,000,000 shares of Common Stock, 55,529,666 of which are issued and outstanding, and (B) 3,000,000 shares of preferred stock, none of which are issued and outstanding.  All shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding capital stock have been duly authorized, are validly issued and outstanding, and are fully paid and nonassessable. No securities issued by the Company from the date of its incorporation to the date hereof were issued in violation of any statutory or common law preemptive rights.  There are no dividends which have accrued or been declared but are unpaid on the capital stock of the Company.  All taxes required to be paid by the Company in connection with the issuance and any
transfers of the Company’s capital stock have been paid.  All securities of the Company have been issued in all material respects in accordance with the provisions of all applicable securities and other laws.

 (ii)            No Person has any right of first refusal, preemptive right, right of participation, or any similar right to participate in the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Except as a result of the purchase and sale of the Securities and except for employee and director stock options under the Company's equity compensation plans and for 19,341,021 shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to outstanding warrants, there are no outstanding options, warrants, rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities, rights or obligations convertible into or exchangeable for, or giving any Person any right to subscribe for or acquire, any shares of Common Stock, or contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by
which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is or may become bound to issue additional shares of Common Stock, or securities or rights convertible or exchangeable into shares of Common Stock. The issue and sale of the Securities will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other securities to any Person (other than the Purchasers) and will not result in a right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under such securities.

As of their respective filing dates, the SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, as applicable, and none of the SEC Reports, as of their respective filing dates, 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

 (ii)  The financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Reports comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the Commission with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United

 (i)              Material Changes.  Since March 31, 2007 and except as expressly disclosed in the SEC Reports or as set forth on Schedule 3.1(i), the Company has conducted its business only in the ordinary course consistent with past practice and there has not occurred any event that would have or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

 (j)              Litigation. There is no action, suit, inquiry, notice of violation, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, threatened against the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties before or by any court, arbitrator, governmental or administrative agency or regulatory authority (federal, state, county, local or foreign) (collectively, an “Action”) which (i) adversely affects or challenges the legality, validity or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents or the Securities or (ii) would, if there were an unfavorable decision, have or result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any
of its Subsidiaries, nor, to the knowledge of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any director or officer thereof, is or has been the subject of any Action involving a claim of violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty.  To the knowledge of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, there has not been and there is not pending or contemplated, any investigation by the Commission involving the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any current or former director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The Commission has not issued any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement filed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act.

 (k)              Labor Relations. No material labor dispute exists or, to the knowledge of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, is imminent with respect to any of the employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which would have or result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 (l)              Compliance. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) is in default under or in violation of (and no event has occurred that has not been waived that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would result in a default by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under), nor has the Company or any of its Subsidiaries received notice of a claim that it is in default

(i)   The Company and its Subsidiaries hold all material authorizations, consents, approvals, franchises, licenses and permits required under applicable law or regulation for the operation of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries as presently operated (the “Governmental Authorizations”). All the Governmental Authorizations have been duly issued or obtained and are in full force and effect, and the Company and its Subsidiaries are in material compliance with the terms of all the Governmental Authorizations. The Company and its Subsidiaries have not engaged in any activity that, to their knowledge, would cause revocation or suspension of any such Governmental Authorizations. The Company has no knowledge of any facts which would reasonably be expected to cause the Company to
believe that the Governmental Authorizations will not be renewed by the appropriate governmental authorities in the ordinary course. Neither the execution, delivery nor performance of this Agreement shall adversely affect the status of any of the Governmental Authorizations.

 (ii)     Without limiting the generality of the representations and warranties made in sub-paragraph (i) above, the Company represents and warrants that (i) the Company and each of its Subsidiaries is in material compliance with all applicable provisions of the United States Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “FDC Act”) and equivalent laws, rules and regulations in jurisdictions outside the United States in which the Company or its Subsidiaries do business, (ii) its products and those of each of its Subsidiaries that are in the Company’s control are not adulterated or misbranded and are in lawful distribution, (iii) all of the products marketed by and within the control of the Company comply in all

 (n)    Title to Assets. The Company and the Subsidiaries do not own any real property, and have good and marketable title to all personal property owned by them that is material to the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in each case free and clear of all Liens, except those, if any, reflected in the Company’s financial statements.  Any real property and facilities held under lease by the Company and the Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases (subject to laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and rules of law governing specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies) with which the Company and
the Subsidiaries are in material compliance.

	
             
 	
            (o)
 	
            Intellectual Property.
 

(i)             The Company or a Subsidiary thereof has the right to use or is the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in and to all foreign and domestic patents, patent rights, trademarks, service marks, trade names, brands and copyrights (whether or not registered and, if applicable, including pending applications for registration) owned, used or controlled by the Company and its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Rights”) and in and to each material invention, software, trade secret, technology, product, composition, formula and method of process used by the Company or its Subsidiaries (the Rights and such other items, the “Intellectual Property”),
and, to the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ knowledge, has the right to use the same, free and clear of any claim or conflict with the rights of others; 

 (ii)            other than as set forth in the SEC Reports, no material royalties or fees (license or otherwise) are payable by the Company or its Subsidiaries to any Person by reason of the ownership or use of any of the Intellectual Property; 

 (iii)           there have been no written claims made against the Company or its Subsidiaries asserting the invalidity, abuse, misuse, or unenforceability of any of the Intellectual Property, and, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, there are no reasonable grounds for any such claims; 

 (iv)           neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries have made any written claim of any violation or infringement by others of its rights in the Intellectual Property, and to the best of the Company’s knowledge, no reasonable grounds for such claims exist; and 

 (v)            neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries have received written notice that it is in conflict with or infringing upon the asserted rights of others in connection with the Intellectual Property.

 (p)            Insurance. The Company and the Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company and the Subsidiaries are engaged.  All of the insurance policies of the Company and its Subsidiaries are in full force and 

 

12

 

effect and are valid and enforceable in accordance with their terms, and the Company and its Subsidiaries have complied with all material terms and conditions thereof.  Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any reason to believe that it will not be able 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 without a significant increase in cost.

 (q)    Transactions With Affiliates and Employees.  None of the officers or directors of the Company or its Subsidiaries and, to the knowledge of the Company and its Subsidiaries, none of the employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries is presently a party to any transaction with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than for services as employees, officers and directors), including any contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the knowledge of the Company and its Subsidiaries, any entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest or is an officer,
director, trustee or partner, other than (i) for payment of salary or consulting fees for services rendered, (ii) reimbursement for expenses incurred on behalf of the Company and (iii) for other employee benefits, including stock option agreements and other stock awards under any equity compensation plan of the Company.

 (r)    Internal Accounting Controls. The Company and each of the Subsidiaries maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient in the judgment of the Company’s management to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The Company has established disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its Subsidiaries, is made known to the certifying officers by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which the Company's Form 10-K or 10-Q, as the case may be, is being prepared. The Company's certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's controls and procedures as of March 31, 2007 (such date, the “Evaluation Date”).  The Company presented in its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date.  Since the Evaluation Date, there have not been any changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 (s)             Certain Fees. Except for fees payable to Oppenheimer & Co., Inc. and/or its designees, no brokerage or finder's fees or commissions are or will be payable by the Company or its Subsidiaries to any broker, financial advisor or consultant, finder, placement agent, investment banker, bank or other Person with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchasers shall have no obligation with respect to any fees or with respect to 

 

13

 

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.

 (t)     Private Placement; Integrated Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchaser’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2, no registration under the Securities Act is required for the offer and sale of the Securities by the Company to the Purchasers as contemplated hereby. The issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder does not contravene the rules and regulations of the American Stock Exchange or any other Trading Market.  Neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause this offering of the Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of
the Securities Act and would as a result require registration under the Securities Act or trigger any applicable shareholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any exchange or automated quotation system on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated.

 (u)            Charter, Bylaws and Corporate Records. The minute books of the Company and its Subsidiaries contain in all material respects complete and accurate records of all meetings and other corporate actions of the board of directors, committees of the board of directors, incorporators and stockholders of the Company and its Subsidiaries from the date of incorporation of each such entity to the date hereof. All material corporate decisions and actions have been validly made or taken. All corporate books, including without limitation the share transfer register, comply in all material respects with applicable laws and regulations and have been regularly updated.

 (v)            Registration Rights. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(v) or as set forth in the SEC Reports, no Person has any right to cause the Company to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any securities of the Company.

 (w)           Listing and Maintenance Requirements. Except as set forth in Schedule 3.1(w), the Company has not, in the 12 months preceding the date hereof, received notice from any Trading Market on which the Common Stock is or has been listed or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading Market. The Company is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue to be, in compliance with all such listing and maintenance requirements.

 (x)        Taxes. All tax returns and tax reports required to be filed with respect to the income, operations, business or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries have been timely filed (or appropriate extensions have been obtained) with the appropriate governmental agencies in all jurisdictions in which such returns and reports are required to be filed, and all of the foregoing as filed are, in all material respects, correct and complete and, in all material respects, reflect accurately all liability for taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the periods to which such returns relate, and all amounts shown as owing thereon have been paid. All income, profits, franchise, sales, use, value added, occupancy, property, excise, payroll, withholding, FICA, FUTA and other
taxes (including interest and penalties), if any, collectible or payable by the Company and its Subsidiaries or relating to or chargeable against any of its material assets, 

 

14

 

revenues or income or relating to any employee, independent contractor, creditor, stockholder or other third party through the Closing Date, were fully collected and paid by such date if due by such date or provided for by adequate reserves in the financial statements contained in the SEC Reports as of and for the period ended March 31, 2007 (other than taxes accruing after such date) and all similar items due through the Closing Date will have been fully paid by that date or provided for by adequate reserves, whether or not any such taxes were reported or reflected in any tax returns or filings. No taxation authority has sought to audit the records of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for the purpose of verifying or disputing any tax returns, reports or related information and disclosures provided to such taxation authority, or for the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ alleged failure to
provide any such tax returns, reports or related information and disclosure. No material claims or deficiencies have been asserted against or inquiries raised with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to any taxes or other governmental charges or levies which have not been paid or otherwise satisfied, including claims that, or inquiries whether, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has not filed a tax return that it was required to file, and, to the best of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ knowledge, there exists no reasonable basis for the making of any such claims or inquiries. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has waived any restrictions on assessment or collection of taxes or consented to the extension of any statute of limitations relating to taxation.

 (y)            Environmental Matters. None of the premises or any properties owned, occupied or leased by the Company or its Subsidiaries (the “Premises”) has been used by the Company or the Subsidiaries or, to the Company’s knowledge, by any other Person, to manufacture, treat, store, or dispose of any substance that has been designated to be a “hazardous substance” under applicable Environmental Laws (hereinafter defined) (“Hazardous Substances”) in violation of any applicable Environmental Laws. To their knowledge, the Company and its Subsidiaries have not disposed of, discharged, emitted or released any Hazardous Substances
which would require, under applicable Environmental Laws, remediation, investigation or similar response activity. No Hazardous Substances are present as a result of the actions of the Company or its Subsidiaries or, to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ knowledge, any other Person, in, on or under the Premises which would give rise to any liability or clean-up obligations of the Company or its Subsidiaries under applicable Environmental Laws. The Company and its Subsidiaries and, to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries knowledge, any other Person for whose conduct it may be responsible pursuant to an agreement or by operation of law, are in compliance with all laws, regulations and other federal, state or local governmental requirements, and all applicable judgments, orders, writs, notices, decrees, permits, licenses, approvals, consents or injunctions in effect on the date of this Agreement relating to the generation, management, handling, transportation, treatment,
disposal, storage, delivery, discharge, release or emission of any Hazardous Substance (the “Environmental Laws”). Neither the Company or its Subsidiaries nor, to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ knowledge, any other Person for whose conduct it may be responsible pursuant to an agreement or by operation of law has received any written complaint, notice, order, or citation of any actual, threatened or alleged noncompliance with any of the Environmental Laws, and there is no proceeding, suit or investigation pending or, to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ knowledge, threatened against the Company or its Subsidiaries or, to the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ knowledge, any such Person with respect to any violation or alleged violation of the Environmental Laws, and, to the knowledge of the Company or its Subsidiaries, there is no basis for the institution of any such proceeding, suit or

 (z)    Disclosure. The Company confirms that neither the Company nor any other Person acting on its behalf and at the direction of the Company, has provided any of the Purchasers or their agents or counsel with any information that in the Company’s reasonable judgment, at the time such information was furnished, constitutes material, non-public information, other than information relating to the fact that the Company was considering and engaged in the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company understands and confirms that the Purchasers will rely on the foregoing representations and covenants in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. No representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or the Transaction Documents or in any schedule or

            3.2
 	
            Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers.
 

Each Purchaser hereby, for itself and for no other Purchaser, represents and warrants as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date to the Company as follows:

 (a)            Organization; Authority; Enforceability. Such Purchaser (other than individuals) is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization with full power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its obligations thereunder. The execution, delivery and performance by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or similar action on the part of such Purchaser. Each Transaction Document to which it is a party has been duly executed by such Purchaser, and when delivered by such Purchaser in accordance with the terms hereof,
will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by rules of law governing specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies and (iii) to the extent the indemnification provisions contained in the Transaction Documents may be limited by applicable federal or state securities laws.

 (b)            General Solicitation. Such Purchaser is not purchasing the Securities as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding the Securities published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar or any other general solicitation or general advertisement.

 (c)             No Public Sale or Distribution. Such Purchaser is (i) acquiring the Shares and Warrants and (ii) upon exercise of the Warrants will acquire the Warrant Shares, for its own account and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, such Purchaser does not agree to hold any of the Securities for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Securities at any time in accordance with or pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption under the Securities Act. Such Purchaser is acquiring the Securities hereunder in the ordinary course of its business.
Such Purchaser does not have any 

 

16

 

agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any Person to distribute any of the Securities.

 (d)            Accredited Investor Status. Such Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D.

 (e)             Jurisdiction of Offer.  Such Purchaser is a resident of (or in the case of a corporation, trust, partnership or other legal entity, has its principal place of business in) the jurisdiction set forth below such Purchaser’s name on Schedule 1 attached hereto.

 (f)             Reliance on Exemptions. Such Purchaser understands that the Shares and Warrants are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and such Purchaser's compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Purchaser to acquire the Shares and Warrants.

 (g)            Information. Such Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been furnished with all publicly available materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and such other publicly available materials relating to the offer and sale of the Shares and Warrants as have been requested by such Purchaser. Such Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by such Purchaser or its advisors, if any, or its representatives shall modify, amend or affect such Purchaser's right to rely on the Company's representations and warranties contained herein. Such Purchaser understands that its investment in the
Shares and Warrants involves a high degree of risk.

 (h)            No Governmental Review. Such Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Shares and Warrants or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Shares and Warrants, nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Shares and Warrants.

 (i)             Experience of Such Purchaser. Such Purchaser, either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters, including investing in companies engaged in the business in which the Company is engaged, so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Shares and Warrants, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. Such Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares and Warrants and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that each Purchaser does not make or has not made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in this Section 3.2.

OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

	
             
 	
            4.1
 	
            Transfer Restrictions.
 

(a)             The Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws.  Each Purchaser will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of (or solicit any offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire or take pledge of) any of the Securities except in compliance with the Securities Act, applicable state securities laws and the respective rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.  In connection with any transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement, to the Company, to an Affiliate of a Purchaser (who is an accredited investor and executes a customary representation letter) or in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company may require the transferor
thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Securities under the Securities Act, provided, however, that in the case of a transfer pursuant to Rule 144, no opinion shall be required if the transferor provides the Company with a customary seller’s representation letter reasonably satisfactory to the Company, and if such sale is not pursuant to subsection (k) of Rule 144, a customary broker’s representation letter and a Form 144.  Any such transferee that agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and the Investor Rights Agreement shall have the rights of a Purchaser under this Agreement and the Investor Rights
Agreement.  Except as required by federal securities laws and the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction within the United States and as expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents, the Securities may be transferred, in whole or in part, by any of the Purchasers at any time.  The Company shall reissue certificates evidencing the Securities upon surrender of certificates evidencing the Securities being transferred in accordance with this Section 4.1(a).

 (b)            The Purchasers agree to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 4.1(b), of a legend on any of the Securities in substantially the following form:

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. THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL
INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

 

18

 

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 Securities, in accordance with all applicable securities laws, to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, such Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or secured parties.  Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith; provided, however, that such Purchaser shall provide the Company with such documentation as is reasonably requested by the Company to ensure that the pledge is pursuant to a
bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or a security interest in some or all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act.  The Company will execute and deliver such documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Securities, including 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.

 (c)             Certificates evidencing the Securities shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b)), (i) following any sale of such Securities pursuant to Rule 144, or (ii) if such Securities are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k), or (iii) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the Staff of the Commission), or (iv) if such Securities are registered for sale under an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Company's transfer agent promptly upon the occurrence of any of the events in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above to
effect the removal of the legend hereunder. The Company agrees that at such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1(c), it will, no later than three Trading Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Company's transfer agent of a certificate representing Securities issued with a restrictive legend, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such Securities that is free from all restrictive and other legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section.

 (d)            Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates representing Securities as set forth in this Section 4.1 is predicated upon the Company's reliance on, and the Purchaser's agreement that, and each Purchaser hereby agrees that, the Purchaser will not sell any Securities except pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom.

            Furnishing of Information.
 

As long as any Purchaser owns Securities, the Company covenants to use commercially reasonable efforts to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act. Upon the request in writing of any such holder of Securities, the Company shall deliver to such holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with the preceding sentence. As long as any Purchaser owns Securities, if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to the Exchange Act, it will use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and furnish to the Purchasers and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c), such information as is required for the Purchasers to sell the Securities under Rule 144. The Company further covenants
that it will use commercially reasonable efforts and take such further action as any holder of Securities may reasonably request in writing, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Person to sell such Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144.

	
             
 	
            4.3
 	
            Integration.
 

The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities to the Purchasers or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in violation of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market.  

	
             
 	
            4.4

which case the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement or communication.

            4.5
 	
            Shareholders Rights Plan.
 

No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or any other Person that (a) any Purchaser is an “acquiring person” under any shareholders rights plan or similar plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company, or (b) that any Purchaser could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement; solely, in each case, by virtue of receiving Securities under the Transaction Documents or by entering into the Transaction Documents.

	
             
 	
            4.6
 	
            Non-Public Information.
 

The Company covenants and agrees that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf will provide any Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Purchaser shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information or shall have otherwise been advised by the Company or its representatives to maintain the confidentiality of such information. The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

	
             
 	
            4.7
 	
            Use of Proceeds.
 

Until the date on which the Purchasers own less than 50% of the Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement, the Company covenants and agrees that the proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock and Warrants shall be used by the Company for working capital and general corporate purposes and may also be used for the repayment of indebtedness.

	
             
 	
            4.8
 	
            Reservation of Common Stock.
 

As of the date hereof, the Company has reserved and the Company shall continue to reserve and keep available at all times, free of preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of enabling the Company to issue Shares pursuant to this Agreement and Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants.

	
             
 	
            4.9
 	
            Listing of Common Stock.
 

The Company hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of the Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange or any applicable Trading Market. The Company further agrees, if the Company applies to have the Common Stock traded on any other Trading Market, it will include in such application the Shares and the Warrant Shares, and will take such other action as is necessary to cause the Shares and Warrant Shares to be listed on such other Trading Market as promptly as possible to the extent that any of the Common Stock is listed thereon.

subject matter thereof made by or on behalf of the Company or the Purchasers.

	
             
 	
            5.2
 	
            Indemnification.
 

(a)             The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchasers, their Affiliates, each of their officers, directors, employees and agents and their respective successors and assigns, from and against any losses, damages, or expenses which are caused by or arise out of (i) any breach or default in the performance by the Company of any covenant or agreement made by the Company in this Agreement or in any of the Transaction Documents; (ii) any breach of warranty or representation made by the Company in this Agreement or in any of the Transaction Documents; and/or (iii) any and all third party actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, judgments, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incident to any of the foregoing.

 (b)            The Purchasers, severally and not jointly, agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Affiliates, each of their officers, directors, employees and agents and their respective successors and assigns, from and against any losses, damages, or expenses which are caused by or arise out of (A) any breach or default in the performance by the Purchasers of any covenant or agreement made by the Purchasers in this Agreement or in any of the Transaction Documents; (B) any breach of warranty or representation made by the Purchasers in this Agreement or in any of the Transaction Documents; and (C) any and all third party actions, suits, proceedings, claims, demands, judgments, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incident to any of the foregoing;
provided, however, that a Purchaser’s 

 

22

 

liability under this Section 5.2(b) shall not exceed the Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser hereunder.

	
             
 	
            5.3
 	
            Indemnity Procedure.
 

A party or parties hereto agreeing to be responsible for or to indemnify against any matter pursuant to this Agreement is referred to herein as the “Indemnifying Party” and the other party or parties claiming indemnity is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”.  An Indemnified Party under this Agreement shall, with respect to claims asserted against such party by any third party, give written notice to the Indemnifying Party of any liability which might give rise to a claim for indemnity under this Agreement within sixty (60) Business Days of the receipt of any written claim from any such third party, but not later than twenty (20) days prior to the date any answer or responsive pleading is due, and with respect to other matters for which the Indemnified Party may seek
indemnification, give prompt written notice to the Indemnifying Party of any liability which might give rise to a claim for indemnity; provided, however, that any failure to give such notice will not waive any rights of the Indemnified Party except to the extent the rights of the Indemnifying Party are materially prejudiced.

The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its election, to take over the defense or settlement of such claim by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party at least fifteen (15) days prior to the time when an answer or other responsive pleading or notice with respect thereto is required. If the Indemnifying Party makes such election, it may conduct the defense of such claim through counsel of its choosing (subject to the Indemnified Party’s approval of such counsel, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), shall be solely responsible for the expenses of such defense and shall be bound by the results of its defense or settlement of the claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any such claim without prior notice to and consultation with the Indemnified Party, and no such settlement involving any equitable relief or which might have an adverse effect on the
Indemnified Party may be agreed to without the written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). So long as the Indemnifying Party is diligently contesting any such claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party may pay or settle such claim only at its own expense and the Indemnifying Party will not be responsible for the fees of separate legal counsel to the Indemnified Party, unless the named parties to any proceeding include both parties or representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnified Party, due to conflicts of interest or otherwise. If the Indemnifying Party does not make such election, or having made such election does not, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnified Party proceed diligently to defend such claim, then the Indemnified Party may (after written notice to the Indemnifying Party), at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, elect to take over the defense of
and proceed to handle such claim in its discretion and the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by any defense or settlement that the Indemnified Party may make in good faith with respect to such claim. In connection therewith, the Indemnifying Party will fully cooperate with the Indemnified Party should the Indemnified Party elect to take over the defense of any such claim. The parties agree to cooperate in defending such third party claims and the Indemnified Party shall provide such cooperation and such access to its books, records and properties as the Indemnifying Party shall reasonably request with respect to any matter for which indemnification is sought hereunder; and the parties hereto agree to cooperate with each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense thereof.

 

23

 

With regard to claims of third parties for which indemnification is payable hereunder, such indemnification shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party upon the earlier to occur of: (i) the entry of a judgment against the Indemnified Party and the expiration of any applicable appeal period, or if earlier, five (5) days prior to the date that the judgment creditor has the right to execute the judgment; (ii) the entry of an unappealable judgment or final appellate decision against the Indemnified Party; or (iii) a settlement of the claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the reasonable expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party shall be reimbursed on a current basis by the Indemnifying Party. With regard to other claims for which indemnification is payable hereunder, such indemnification shall be paid promptly by the Indemnifying Party upon demand by the Indemnified Party.

The parties to this Agreement agree that any breach of any term or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a breach occurring in the State of New York by virtue of a failure to perform an act required to be performed in the State of New York and irrevocably and expressly agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court, Southern District of New York and if such court does not have proper jurisdiction, the State Courts of New York County, New York for the purpose of resolving any disputes among the parties relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. The parties irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or any judgment entered by any court in respect hereof brought in New York County, New York, and further irrevocably waive any claim that any suit, action or proceeding brought in Federal District Court, Southern District of New York and if such court does not have proper jurisdiction, the State Courts of New York County, New York has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each of the parties hereto consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding, by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.  Nothing in this Section 6.9 shall affect or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

	
             
 	
            6.10
 	
            Execution.
 

This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together 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, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature 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 facsimile signature page were an original thereof.

            6.11
 	
            Severability.
 

If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement.

	
             
 	
            6.12
 	
            Replacement of Securities.
 

If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested by the Company.

	
             
 	
            6.13
 	
            Remedies.
 

In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

	
             
 	
            6.14
 	
            Payment Set Aside.
 

To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or a Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights 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, 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, to the extent permissible under applicable law, 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.

	
             
 	
            6.15
 	
            Independent Nature of Purchasers' Obligations and Rights.
 

The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Document. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to 

 

27

 

independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in their review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents.  The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by the Purchasers.

	
             
 	
            6.16
 	
            Waiver of Trial by Jury.  
 

THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

	
             
 	
            6.17
 	
            Further Assurances.  
 

Each party agrees to cooperate fully with the other parties and to execute such further instruments, documents and agreements and to give such further written assurances as may be reasonably requested by any other party to better evidence and reflect the transactions described herein and contemplated hereby and to carry into effect the intents and purposes of this Agreement, and further agrees to take promptly, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do promptly, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable law to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated hereby, to obtain all necessary waivers, consents and approvals, to effect all necessary registrations and filings, and to remove any injunctions or other impediments or delays, legal or otherwise, in order to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement for the purpose of securing to the parties hereto the benefits contemplated by this Agreement.
