Each of this Agreement and the Warrants is a valid and binding obligation of Investor enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as limited by applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights and the availability of equitable remedies (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or equity).

 

3.2.           Brokers and Finders.  Such Investor has not retained any investment banker, broker or finder in connection with the Contemplated Transactions.

 

3.3.           Securities Laws Representations and Covenants of Investors.

 

(a)           This Agreement is made with each Investor in reliance upon such Investor’s representation to the Company, which by such Investor’s execution of this Agreement such Investor hereby confirms, that the Securities to be received by such Investor will be acquired for investment for such Investor’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof such that such Investor would constitute an “underwriter” under the Securities Act.  The Investor has not granted any right to any other person to acquire the Securities purchased by such Investor or the Underlying Shares except as permitted by the Securities Act and Blue Sky Laws.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this representation and warranty shall not limit the Investor’s right to sell the Shares, or the Warrant Shares pursuant to this Agreement, or in compliance with an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. 

 

(b)           Each Investor understands and acknowledges that the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement will not be registered under the Securities Act or qualified under any Blue Sky Laws on the grounds that the offering and sale of the Securities are exempt from registration and qualification, respectively, under the Securities Act and the Blue Sky Laws, and that the Company’s reliance upon such exemption is predicated upon such Investor’s representations set forth in this Agreement.

 

  

5

  

 

(c)           Each Investor covenants that, unless the Securities or the Warrant Shares have been registered pursuant to the Securities Act, such Investor will not dispose of such securities unless and until such Investor shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company and its counsel to the effect that (i) such disposition will not require registration under the Securities Act and (ii) appropriate action necessary for compliance with the Securities Act and any applicable state, local or foreign law has been taken; provided, however, that an Investor may dispose of such securities without providing the opinion referred to above if the Company has been provided with adequate assurance, reasonably satisfactory to the Company and its counsel, that such disposition is made in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any similar or analogous rule) and any applicable state, local or foreign law.

 

(d)           In connection with the investment representations made herein, each Investor represents that (i) such Investor is able to fend for itself in the Contemplated Transactions; (ii) such Investor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such Investor’s prospective investment in the Securities; (iii) such Investor has the ability to bear the economic risks of such Investor’s prospective investment and can afford the complete loss of such investment; (iv) such Investor has read the SEC Documents; (v) such Investor believes it has received all the information it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to purchase the Securities; and (vi) such Investor has had access to officers of the Company and an opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from such officers and has had all questions that have been asked by such Investor satisfactorily answered by the Company.

 

(e)           Each Investor further represents by execution of this Agreement that such Investor qualifies as an “accredited investor” as such term is defined under Rule 501 promulgated under the Securities Act.  Any Investor that is a corporation, a partnership, a trust or other business entity further represents by execution of this Agreement that it has not been organized for the purpose of purchasing the Securities.

 

(f)           By acceptance hereof, each Investor agrees that the Shares or the Warrant Shares may not be sold by such Investor without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and therefore such Investor may be required to hold such securities for an indeterminate period.

In addition, such certificates shall bear any legend that, in the opinion of the Company’s counsel, is required pursuant to any state, local or foreign law.

 

3.5.           Acknowledgment of Reliance. The Investor hereby agrees and acknowledges that the Company has been induced to enter into this Agreement and to issue and sell the Securities hereunder, in part, based upon the representations, warranties and covenants of the Investor contained herein.

Thereafter, the Company shall furnish such information statements to the stockholders of the Company in accordance with the appropriate SEC rules and regulations and shall take all such other actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable Warrant Shares upon the conversion of all Warrants from time to time outstanding.

The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective no later than 120 days following the Effective Date.

The Registration Statement when declared effective (including the documents incorporated therein by reference) shall comply as to form with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

(b)           Failure To File. If the Registration Statement required by Section 4.2 of this Agreement is not filed within 21 days after the Effective Date, then each Purchaser shall be entitled to a payment with respect to the purchased Units of each such Purchaser, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, of 0.25% of the respective amount of subscription per 10-day period following the 22nd day after the Effective Date (the " Liquidated Damages" ). There shall be no limitation on the aggregate amount of the Liquidated Damages payable by the Company under this Agreement to each Purchaser.  The Liquidated Damages payable pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be payable within five business days of the end of each such 10-day period. Any Liquidated Damages shall be paid to each Purchaser in cash or immediately available funds.

5.             Miscellaneous.

 

5.1.           Entire Agreement; Successors and Assigns.

1.             Registration, etc.  The Holder shall have the rights to registration of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants as set forth in the Subscription Agreement.

 

2.             Sale or Exercise Without Registration.  If, at the time of any exercise, transfer or surrender for exchange of a Warrant or Warrant Shares previously issued upon the exercise of Warrants, and such Warrant or Warrant Shares has not been registered under the Securities Act, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such exercise, transfer or exchange, that the Holder or transferee of such Warrant or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, furnish to the Company an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such exercise, transfer or exchange may be made without registration under the Securities Act, provided that the disposition thereof shall at all times be within the control of such Holder or transferee, as the case may be, and provided further that nothing contained in this Section 2 shall relieve the Company from complying with its obligations concerning registration of Warrant Shares pursuant to the Subscription Agreement.

3.             Exercise of Warrant.

 

3.1.           Exercise in Full.  Subject to the provisions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised in full by the Holder hereof by surrender of this Warrant, with the form of subscription at the end hereof duly executed by such Holder, to the Company at its principal office accompanied by payment, in cash, bank wire or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company, in the amount obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant by the Purchase Price per share, after giving effect to all adjustments through the date of exercise.

 

3.2.           Partial Exercise.  Subject to the provisions hereof, this Warrant may be exercised in part by surrender of this Warrant in the manner and at the place provided in Section 3.1 except that the amount payable by the Holder upon any partial exercise shall be the amount obtained by multiplying (a) the number of shares of Common Stock (without giving effect to any adjustment therein) designated by the Holder in the subscription at the end hereof by (b) the Purchase Price per share.  Upon any such partial exercise, the Company at its expense will forthwith issue and deliver to or upon the order of the Holder hereof a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of the Holder hereof or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock equal (without giving effect to any adjustment therein) to the number of such shares called for on the face of this Warrant minus the number of such shares designated by the Holder in the subscription at the end hereof.

 

3.3           Mandatory Exercise.  On the condition that the Company maintains an effective Registration Statement with regard to the Warrant Shares, the Holder shall be required to exercise, in accordance with Section 3.1, the purchase rights represented by this Warrant on the date that is 30 days following the Company’s notice to the Holder that the average of the Market Prices for the Common Stock for at least 10 consecutive trading days has exceeded $3.60 (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations or other similar events with respect to the Common Stock).  Holder agrees that the Warrant shall be canceled immediately in the case of Holder’s failure to comply with this Mandatory Exercise provision.

3.4.           Company to Reaffirm Obligations.  The Company will, at the time of any exercise of this Warrant, upon the request of the Holder hereof, acknowledge in writing its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder any rights (including, without limitation, any right to registration of the Warrant Shares) to which such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant, provided that if the Holder of this Warrant shall fail to make any such request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to afford such Holder any such rights.

 

3.5.           Certain Exercises.  If an exercise of a Warrant or Warrants is to be made in connection with a registered public offering or sale of the Company, such exercise may, at the election of the Holder, be conditioned on the consummation of the public offering or sale of the Company, in which case such exercise shall not be deemed effective until the consummation of such transaction.

 

4.             Delivery of Stock Certificates, etc., on Exercise.  As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within ten business days after delivery or surrender of all documents and instruments required to be delivered or surrendered to the Company for such exercise, including payment of the exercise price in cash in accordance with this Warrant, the Company at its own expense (including the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder hereof, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct, a certificate or certificates for the number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock to which such Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise, plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such Holder would otherwise be entitled, cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then current Market Price of one full share, together with any other stock or other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) to which such Holder is entitled upon such exercise pursuant to Section 5 or otherwise.

 

5.             Dividends; Reclassifications, Exchange or Substitution; Combinations

(a)           If the Company declares or pays a dividend on its Common Stock payable in Common Stock, or other securities, subdivides the outstanding Common Stock into a greater or lesser amount, as applicable, of Common Stock, then upon exercise of this Warrant, for each Warrant Share acquired, Holder shall receive, without cost to Holder, the total number and kind of securities to which Holder would have been entitled had Holder owned the Warrant Shares of record as of the date the dividend or subdivision occurred.

(b)           Upon any reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event that results in a change of the number and/or class of the securities issuable upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, Holder shall be entitled to receive, upon exercise or conversion of this Warrant, the number and kind of securities and property that Holder would have received for the Warrant Shares if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before such reclassification, exchange, substitution, or other event.  The Company or its successor shall promptly issue to Holder a new Warrant for such new securities or other property. The new Warrant shall provide for adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 5. The provisions of this Section 5(b) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, exchanges, substitutions, or other events.

(c)           If the outstanding Warrant Shares are combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares, the Purchase Price shall be proportionately increased. 

 

6.             Further Assurances.  The Company will take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of stock upon the exercise of all Warrants from time to time outstanding.
