None of the Sellers shall, nor shall any of them authorize or permit, directly or indirectly, any of their respective officers, trustees, directors, employees, investment bankers, financial advisors, accountants, attorneys, brokers, finders or other agents, advisors or representatives (each, a "Representative") to, directly or indirectly: (i) convert or exercise, in whole or in part, the Purchased Debentures or the Outstanding Warrants, respectively, or otherwise effect any similar transaction with respect to the Purchased Debentures or the Outstanding Warrants; or (ii) initiate, solicit, encourage or knowingly take any other action to facilitate (including by way of furnishing information or assistance) any inquiries or the making of any proposal or other action that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, any proposal or offer from any other person relating to any sale, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or similar transaction involving all or any part of the Purchased Debentures or the Outstanding Warrants; (iii) initiate or participate in any discussions or negotiations, or furnish to any person not a party to this Agreement (other than the Company's designee, if any) any information in furtherance of any inquiries that could reasonably be expected to lead to any such proposal or offer; or (iv) enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to any such proposal or offer (including any letter of intent, agreement in principle, memorandum of understanding, confidentiality agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other agreement constituting or related to, or intended to, or that would reasonably be expected to lead to, any such proposal or offer, or that is intended or that could reasonably be expected to result in the abandonment, termination or failure to consummate the Closing or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Sellers shall promptly notify the Company in writing (as soon as is reasonably practicable, but in any event no later than 24 hours from initial receipt or occurrence) of any offer or proposal referred to in the immediately preceding sentence or any communications (written or oral) with respect to any such offer or proposal (including the material terms and conditions thereof and the identity of the person making the offer or proposal) which any of the Sellers or any of their respective Representatives may receive after the date hereof, and Sellers shall promptly provide to the Company copies of any written materials received and a written summary of any other communications made in connection with the foregoing.

6.5 No Interest in Other Securities.  On or after the Closing Date, if it is determined that any Seller owned immediately prior to the Closing Date securities, whether equity, equity linked, debt or otherwise of the Company other than the Purchased Debentures, the Outstanding Shares and the shares issuable upon Exchange of the Outstanding Warrants and has therefore breached its representations and warranties set forth in the last sentence of Section 3.13(d), such Seller shall be deemed to have assigned and transferred its entire right, title and interest to such securities to Purchaser for no additional consideration, effective as of the Closing Date.

6.7 Notice of Exchange. The delivery of this Agreement to the Escrow Agent by the Sellers shall, as of the Closing, constitute and be deemed to be a Notice of Exchange as to all of such Seller's Outstanding Warrants the Exchange of which for shares of Common Stock in accordance with the May 2009 Amendment Agreement results in such Seller being entitled to receive no more than the number of Total Shares such Seller is entitled to receive hereunder and to the extent the Exchange of all of such Seller's Outstanding Warrants would entitle the Seller to receive more than the number of Total Shares such Seller is entitled to receive hereunder, such Seller is not effecting an Exchange of such Outstanding Warrants and agrees and acknowledges that such Outstanding Warrants, as of the Closing, shall be extinguished and all rights and obligations of the parties thereunder shall be automatically terminated.

10. Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement supersedes all other prior oral or written agreements among Purchaser, the Sellers, their affiliates and persons acting on their behalf with respect to the matters discussed herein. Other than this Agreement and the agreements referenced herein, there are no other oral or written agreements with respect to the matters discussed herein or that directly or indirectly relate to the Company or any securities, whether equity, equity linked, debt or otherwise, of the Company, whether or not among the Company, the Sellers, their affiliates and persons acting on their behalf, and this Agreement and the instruments referenced herein contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters covered herein and therein.

No provision hereof may be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.

 

11. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties.  The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

15. Further Assurances.  Each party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

  

16

  

 

16. Successors.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns, including any purchasers of the Purchased Debentures.

 

17. Survival.  Unless this Agreement is terminated by mutual consent of the Sellers and Purchaser, the representations and warranties of Sellers and Purchaser contained in Section 3 and 4 shall survive the Closing Date and the delivery of the Purchased Debentures or the Outstanding Warrants, as applicable.

 

18. Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and may be delivered by facsimile transmission or electronic mail in portable document format or other means intended to preserve the original graphic content of a signature.  Each such counterpart shall be deemed an original, but all of which, taken together, shall constitute one instrument.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Company and each Buyer hereby agree as follows:

 

1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF NOTES AND COMMON SHARES.

 

(a) Purchase of Notes and Common Shares.  Subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions set forth in Sections 6 and 7 below, the Company shall issue and sell to each Buyer, and each Buyer severally, but not jointly, agrees to purchase from the Company on the Closing Date (as defined below), (i) the principal amount of Notes as is set forth opposite such Buyer's name in column (3) on the Schedule of Buyers and (ii) the number of Common Shares as is set forth opposite such Buyer's name in column (5) on the Schedule of Buyers (the "Closing").  On the first Business Day immediately after the Stockholder Approval Date (the "Subsequent Issuance Date"), the Company shall issue to each Buyer the number of Common Shares as is set forth opposite such Buyer's name in column (6) on the Schedule of Buyers.

 

(b) Closing.  The date and time of the Closing (the "Closing Date") shall be 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date hereof (or such other date and/or time as is mutually agreed to by the Company and each Buyer) after notification of satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions to the Closing set forth in Sections 6 and 7 below at the offices of Schulte Roth & Zabel LLP, 919 Third Avenue, New York, New York 10022.

 

(c) Purchase Price.

 

(i) The aggregate purchase price for the Notes issued at the Closing, the number of Common Shares set forth opposite such Buyer's name on column (5) of the Schedule of Buyers issued at the Closing, and the number of Common Shares set forth opposite such Buyer's name on column (6) of the Schedule of Buyers issued on the Subsequent Issuance Date (the "Purchase Price") shall be the amount set forth opposite each Buyer's name in column (7) of the Schedule of Buyers.

 

(ii) The Buyers and the Company agree that the Notes and the Common Shares constitute an "investment unit" for purposes of Section 1273(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").  Within thirty (30) days of the Closing Date, the Buyers shall notify the Company of the allocation of the issue price of such investment unit between the Notes and the Common Shares in accordance with Section 1273(c)(2) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.1273-2(h), and neither the Buyers nor the Company shall take any position inconsistent with such allocation in any tax return or in any judicial or administrative proceeding in respect of taxes.

 

(d) Form of Payment.  On the Closing Date, (i) each Buyer shall pay its Purchase Price to the Company for the Notes and the Common Shares to be issued and sold to such Buyer, by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the Company's written wire instructions, and (ii) the Company shall deliver to each Buyer the Notes (in the principal amounts as such Buyer shall have reasonably requested in writing at least one Business Day prior to the Closing) which such Buyer is then purchasing along with the number of Common Shares as set forth opposite such Buyer's name in column (5) on the Schedule of Buyers which such Buyer is purchasing, in each case duly executed on behalf of the Company and registered in the name of such Buyer or its designee.  On the Subsequent Issuance Date, the Company shall deliver to each Buyer the number of Common Shares as set forth opposite such Buyer's name in column (6) on the Schedule of Buyers which such Buyer is purchasing, in each case duly executed on behalf of the Company and registered in the name of such Buyer or its designee.

 

  

2

  

 

(e) Post-Closing Adjustment Shares.  If at anytime prior to the two-year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries receives notice (a "Contingent Payable Event") that the Company or the applicable Subsidiary is obligated to pay up to $769,539 for (i) accrued tax liabilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries for any period prior to the Closing Date in respect of taxes assessed by New York Annual Telecom Tax & Utility Services or by the Universal Service Administrative Company, including interest and penalties assessed thereon, (ii) accrued tax liabilities for any period prior to the Closing Date in respect of the penalty imposed by the IRS against Union Labor Force One, LLC, including interest assessed thereon and (iii) intellectual property liabilities incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date that are not included in the May 2010 Balance Sheet (as such term is defined in Section 3(k)), including any additional fees and penalties assessed thereon, (such payables, the "Contingent Payables"), then the Company will issue to each Buyer an amount of Post-Closing Adjustment Shares (the "Contingent Share Issuance") such that the Buyer's total percentage ownership of the Company's fully diluted shares of Common Stock, assuming for purposes of determining such percentage that (i) all of the Common Shares and Redemption Shares issued to the Buyers on the Closing Date and after the Closing Date pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Documents were issued on the Closing Date and (ii) the percentage ownership of the Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Telanetix, Inc. 2010 Stock Option Plan as of the Closing Date, immediately after the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, is the same percentage ownership as of the date such Contingent Share Issuance is calculated, will be equal to the percentage ownership of the Company's fully diluted shares of Common Stock that the Buyers would have had if the aggregate Contingent Payables had actually been paid by the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date thereby reducing the agreed upon share price.  The "Contingent Share Issuance" shall be determined in accordance with the formula used to establish the price per Common Share and by reference to the table attached as Exhibit E hereto .  Such Contingent Share Issuance shall be made within two (2) Business Days of the Company's receipt of notice of the obligation to pay the Contingent Payable.

 

2. BUYER'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.  Each Buyer, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants with respect to only itself that:

 

(a) Such Buyer is acquiring the Notes and the Common Shares and will acquire the Redemption Shares and the Post-Closing Adjustment Shares in the ordinary course of business 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 under the 1933 Act, and such Buyer does not presently have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any Person (as defined in Section 3(s)) to distribute any of the Securities; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, such Buyer 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 1933 Act.

 

  

3

  

 

(b) Accredited Investor Status.  Such Buyer is an "accredited investor" as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D.

 

(c) Reliance on Exemptions.  Such Buyer understands that the Securities 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 Buyer's compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Buyer set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Buyer to acquire the Securities.  At no time was such Buyer presented with or solicited by or through any leaflet, public promotional meeting, television advertisement or, to its knowledge, any other form of general solicitation or advertising.

 

(d) Information.  No prospectus or "offering memorandum" has been delivered to the undersigned in connection with the purchase of the Securities.

The Company represents and warrants to each of the Buyers that except as previously disclosed in writing by the Company to each of the Buyers on or prior to the date of this Agreement (such previous disclosure being referred to herein as being "Previously Disclosed"):

 

(a) Organization and Qualification.  Each of the Company and its "Subsidiaries" (which for purposes of this Agreement means any entity in which the Company, directly or indirectly, owns any of the capital stock or holds equity or similar interests) are corporations duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which they are incorporated, and have the requisite corporate power and authorization to own their properties and to carry on their business as now being conducted.  Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect.  As used in this Agreement, "Material Adverse Effect" means any material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, operations, results of operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or on the transactions contemplated hereby and the other Transaction Documents or by the agreements and instruments to be entered into in connection herewith or therewith, or on the authority or ability of the Company to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents (as defined below).  The Company has no Subsidiaries.

 

(b) Authorization; Enforcement; Validity.  The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Notes, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Security Documents, the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions (as defined in Section 5(b)), and each of the other agreements entered into by the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the "Transaction Documents") and to issue the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof.  The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Company and each Subsidiary that is a party thereto and the consummation by the Company and its Subsidiaries of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Notes, the Common Shares and the Redemption Shares, the reservation for issuance and issuance of Redemption Shares, if any, and Post-Closing Adjustment Shares, if any, and the granting of a security interest in the Collateral (as defined in the Pledge and Security Agreement) have been duly authorized by the Company's Board of Directors and (other than (i) the filing of appropriate UCC financing statements with the appropriate states and other authorities pursuant to the Pledge and Security Agreement, and (ii) the filing with the SEC of one or more Registration Statements (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) in accordance with the requirements of the Registration Rights Agreement) no further filing, consent, or authorization is required by the Company, its Board of Directors or its stockholders.  This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents of even date herewith have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and each Subsidiary that is a party thereto, and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company and such Subsidiaries, enforceable against the Company and such Subsidiaries in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors' rights and remedies.

(c) Issuance of Securities.  The issuance of the Notes, the Common Shares, the Redemption Shares and the Post-Closing Adjustment Shares are duly authorized and, upon issuance in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Transaction Documents, shall be free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.  As of the Closing, subject to the stockholder approval set forth in the first sentence of Section 4(m)(i), a number of shares of Common Stock shall have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance which equals or exceeds the sum of (i) the number of Common Shares and (ii) 125% of the aggregate of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable as Redemption Shares pursuant to the terms of the Notes and Post-Closing Adjustment Shares (calculating such maximum number of shares assuming that such shares were required to be issued as of the Closing Date).  The Post-Closing Adjustment Shares and, upon payment in accordance with the Notes, the Redemption Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all preemptive or similar rights, taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof, with the holders being entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of Common Stock.  Assuming the accuracy of each of the representations and warranties of the Buyers contained in Section 2, the offer and issuance by the Company of the Securities is exempt from registration under the 1933 Act.

 

(d) No Conflicts.  The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and its Subsidiaries and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Notes, the Common Shares and the Redemption Shares, the granting of a security interest in the Collateral and reservation for issuance and issuance of the Redemption Shares and the Post-Closing Adjustment Shares) will not, on or after the Closing Date, (i) result in a violation of any certificate of incorporation, certificate of formation, any certificate of designations or other constituent documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any capital stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the bylaws of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) or result in, or having the enforcement of the rights provided for in the Transactions Documents constitute, a change of control (including, without limitation, by being deemed to be a merger, consolidation, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets or businesses of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) or similar outcome under, or give to others any rights (x) of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, or (y) to any payment, including, without limitation, any employment or severance payment, under, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including foreign, federal and state securities laws and regulations and the rules and regulations of The OTC Bulletin Board (the "Principal Market")) applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries 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 (iii) above, for such violations which would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and registrations which the Company is required to obtain pursuant to the preceding sentence have been obtained or effected on or prior to the Closing Date, and the Company and its Subsidiaries are unaware of any facts or circumstances which might prevent the Company from obtaining or effecting any of the registration, application or filings pursuant to the preceding sentence.

(f) Acknowledgment Regarding Buyer's Purchase of Securities.  The Company acknowledges and agrees that each Buyer is acting solely in the capacity of arm's length purchaser with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and that no Buyer is (i) an officer or director of the Company, (ii) to the knowledge of the Company, an "affiliate" of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as defined in Rule 144) or (iii) to the knowledge of the Company, a "beneficial owner" of more than 10% of the shares of Common Stock (as defined for purposes of Rule 13d-3 of the 1934 Act).  The Company further acknowledges that no Buyer is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or in any similar capacity) with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and any advice given by a Buyer or any of its representatives or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby is merely incidental to such Buyer's purchase of the Securities.

The Company shall be responsible for the payment of any placement agent's fees, financial advisory fees, or brokers' commissions (other than for persons engaged by any Buyer or its investment advisor) relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby.  The Company shall pay, and hold each Buyer harmless against, any liability, loss or expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and out-of-pocket expenses) arising in connection with any such claim.  The Company acknowledges that it has engaged Merriman Curhan Ford & Co. as placement agent (the "Placement Agent") in connection with the sale of the Securities.

(h) No Integrated Offering.  None of the Company, its Subsidiaries, any of their affiliates, and any Person acting on 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 require registration of any of the Securities under the 1933 Act, whether through integration with prior offerings or otherwise, or cause this offering of the Securities to require the approval of stockholders of the Company for purposes of the 1933 Act or any applicable stockholder 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.  None of the Company, its Subsidiaries, their affiliates and any Person acting on their behalf will take any action or steps referred to in the preceding sentence that would require registration of any of the Securities under the 1933 Act or cause the offering of the Securities to be integrated with other offerings for purposes of any such applicable stockholder approval provisions.

 

(i) Dilutive Effect.  The Company understands and acknowledges that the Company may issue the Redemption Shares pursuant to the terms of the Notes, and that the Company may issue Post-Closing Adjustment Shares in an amount that will be determined in the future, in accordance with the terms of Section 1(e).  The Company further acknowledges that if the Company issues Redemption Shares in accordance with the terms of the Notes, and/or issues Post-Closing Adjustment Shares in accordance with Section 1(e) hereof such issuance is absolute and unconditional regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other stockholders of the Company.

 

(j) Application of Takeover Protections; Rights Agreement.  The Company and its Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company or the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation which is or could become applicable to any Buyer as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Company's issuance of the Securities and any Buyer's ownership of the Securities.  The Company and its Board of Directors have taken all necessary action to render inapplicable Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law to any Buyer and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Securities to the Buyers.  The Company has not adopted a stockholder rights plan or similar arrangement relating to accumulations of beneficial ownership of Common Stock or a change in control of the Company.

 

(k) SEC Documents; Financial Statements.  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 the 1934 Act (all of the foregoing filed prior to the date hereof 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").  The Company has delivered to the Buyers or their respective representatives true, correct and complete copies of the SEC Documents not available on the EDGAR system, except for such SEC Documents that, individually or in the aggregate, are not material to the business, properties, assets, operations, results of operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company and its Subsidiaries.  As of their respective dates, 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 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 dates, 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.  The Company has delivered a consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of May 31, 2010 to the Buyers on or before the date hereof (the "May 2010 Balance Sheet").

29

  

 

(1) The Company shall deliver to each Buyer an irrevocable written notice (the "Offer Notice") of any proposed or intended issuance or sale or exchange (the "Offer") of the securities being offered (the "Offered Securities") in a Subsequent Placement, which Offer Notice shall (w) identify and describe the Offered Securities, (x) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Offered Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (y) identify the persons or entities (if known) to which or with which the Offered Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged and (z) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with such Buyers such amount of the Offered Securities so that the Buyers shall retain their then pro-rata portion of the issued and outstanding Common Stock following the issuance of the Offered Securities, allocated among such Buyers (a) based on such Buyer's pro rata portion of the aggregate principal amount of Notes purchased hereunder (the "Basic Amount"), and (b) with respect to each Buyer that elects to purchase its Basic Amount, any additional portion of the Offered Securities attributable to the Basic Amounts of other Buyers as such Buyer shall indicate it will purchase or acquire should the other Buyers subscribe for less than their Basic Amounts (the "Undersubscription Amount"), which process shall be repeated until the Buyers shall have an opportunity to subscribe for any remaining Undersubscription Amount.

 

(2) To accept an Offer, in whole or in part, such Buyer must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the seventh (7th) Business Day after such Buyer's receipt of the Offer Notice (the "Offer Period"), setting forth the portion of such Buyer's Basic Amount that such Buyer elects to purchase and, if such Buyer shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription Amount, if any, that such Buyer elects to purchase (in either case, the "Notice of Acceptance").  If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Buyers are less than the total of all of the Basic Amounts, then each Buyer who has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, that if the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceed the difference between the total of all the Basic Amounts and the Basic Amounts subscribed for (the "Available Undersubscription Amount"), each Buyer who has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall be entitled to purchase only that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Basic Amount of such Buyer bears to the total Basic Amounts of all Buyers that have subscribed for Undersubscription Amounts, subject to rounding by the Company to the extent its deems reasonably necessary.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Company desires to modify or amend the terms and conditions of the Offer prior to the expiration of the Offer Period, the Company may deliver to the Buyers a new Offer Notice and the Offer Period shall expire on the seventh (7th) Business Day after such Buyer's receipt of such new Offer Notice.

 

(3) The Company shall have thirty (30) calendar days from the expiration of the Offer Period above to (i) offer, issue, sell or exchange all or any part of such Offered Securities as to which a Notice of Acceptance has not been given by the Buyers (the "Refused Securities") pursuant to a definitive agreement (the "Subsequent Placement Agreement") but only to the offerees described in the Offer Notice (if so described therein) and only upon terms and conditions (including, without limitation, unit prices and interest rates) that are not more favorable to the acquiring person or persons or less favorable to the Company than those set forth in the Offer Notice and (ii) to publicly announce (a) the execution of such Subsequent Placement Agreement, and (b) either (x) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such Subsequent Placement Agreement or (y) the termination of such Subsequent Placement Agreement, which shall be filed with the SEC on a Current Report on Form 8-K with such Subsequent Placement Agreement and any documents contemplated therein filed as exhibits thereto; provided that with respect to clause (y) no filing with the SEC shall be required pursuant to this Section 4(o)(iii)(3) to the extent the Company provides reasonable assurance to the Buyers that such information does not constitute material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

 

  

30

  

 

(4) In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Refused Securities (any such sale to be in the manner and on the terms specified in Section 4(o)(iii)(3) above), then each Buyer may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, reduce the number or amount of the Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less than the number or amount of the Offered Securities that such Buyer elected to purchase pursuant to Section 4(o)(iii)(2) above multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue, sell or exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or sold to Buyers pursuant to Section 4(o)(iii)(3) above prior to such reduction) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the original amount of the Offered Securities.  In the event that any Buyer so elects to reduce the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced number or amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been offered to the Buyers in accordance with Section 4(o)(iii)(1) above.

 

(5) Upon the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Refused Securities, the Buyers shall acquire from the Company, and the Company shall issue to the Buyers, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in the Notices of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section 4(o)(iii)(3) above if the Buyers have so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer.  The purchase by the Buyers of any Offered Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company and the Buyers of a purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities substantially similar to agreements executed by other investors in or purchasers of such Offered  Securities. The Buyers and the Company shall each use their reasonable best efforts to consummate such offering as promptly as commercially practicable.

 

(6) Any Offered Securities not acquired by the Buyers or other persons in accordance with Section 4(o)(iii)(3) above may not be issued, sold or exchanged until they are again offered to the Buyers under the procedures specified in this Agreement.

 

  

31

  

 

(7) The Company and the Buyers agree that if any Buyer elects to participate in the Offer, (x) neither the Subsequent Placement Agreement with respect to such Offer nor any other transaction documents related thereto (collectively, the "Subsequent Placement Documents") shall include any term or provisions whereby any Buyer shall be required to agree to any restrictions in trading as to any securities of the Company owned by such Buyer prior to such Subsequent Placement, and (y) any registration rights set forth in such Subsequent Placement Documents shall be similar in all material respects to the registration rights contained in the Registration Rights Agreement.

 

(8) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4(o) and unless otherwise agreed to by the Buyers, the Company shall either confirm in writing to the Buyers that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Placement has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the Offered Securities, in either case in such a manner such that the Buyers will not be in possession of material non-public information, by the fifteenth (15th) Business Day following delivery of the Offer Notice.  If by the fifteenth (15th) Business Day following delivery of the Offer Notice no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Offered Securities has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by the Buyers, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and the Buyers shall not be deemed to be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company.  Should the Company decide to pursue such transaction with respect to the Offered Securities, the Company shall provide each Buyer with another Offer Notice and each Buyer will again have the right of participation set forth in this Section 4(o)(iii).  The Company shall not be permitted to deliver more than one such Offer Notice to the Buyers in any 90 day period.

 

(iv) The restrictions contained in subsection (iii) of this Section 4(o) shall not apply in connection with the issuance of any Excluded Securities or the rights offerings contemplated by Section 4(t) this Agreement.

 

(p) Collateral Agent.

 

(i) Each Buyer hereby (a) appoints HCP-TELA, LLC ("Hale") as the collateral agent hereunder and under the Security Documents (in such capacity, the "Collateral Agent"), and (b) authorizes the Collateral Agent (and its officers, directors, employees and agents) to take such action on such Buyer's behalf in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof.  The Collateral Agent shall not have, by reason hereof or the Security Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Buyer.  Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees and agents shall have any liability to any Buyer for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection hereof or the Security Documents except to the extent caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, and each Buyer agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Agent and all of its officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the "Collateral Agent Indemnitees") from and against any losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and expenses) incurred by such Collateral Agent Indemnitee, whether direct, indirect or consequential, arising from or in connection with the performance by such Collateral Agent Indemnitee of the duties and obligations of Collateral Agent pursuant hereto or the Security Documents.  The Collateral Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, and such instructions shall be binding upon all holders of Notes; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action which, in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent, exposes the Collateral Agent to liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or applicable law.

 

  

32

  

 

(ii) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement, the Pledge and Security Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.

 

(iii) The Collateral Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder and under the Notes and the Security Documents at any time by giving at least ten (10) Business Days prior written notice to the Company and each holder of the Notes.  Such resignation shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Collateral Agent of appointment as provided below.  Upon any such notice of resignation, the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal under the Notes shall appoint a successor Collateral Agent.  Upon the acceptance of the appointment as Collateral Agent, such successor Collateral Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the Security Documents.  After any Collateral Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 4(p) shall inure to its benefit.  If a successor Collateral Agent shall not have been so appointed within said ten (10) Business Day period, the retiring Collateral Agent shall then appoint a successor Collateral Agent who shall serve until such time, if any, as the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal under the Notes appoint a successor Collateral Agent as provided above.

 

(q) Public Information.  At any time during the period commencing from the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date and ending at such time that all of the Securities can be sold either pursuant to a registration statement, or if a registration statement is not available for the resale of all of the Securities, may be sold without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) and otherwise without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144 other than any restrictions on sale imposed to the extent that the holder is an affiliate of the Company, if the Company shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c) (a "Public Information Failure") then, as partial relief for the damages to any holder of Securities by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Securities (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available at law or in equity), the Company shall pay to each such holder an amount in cash equal to one percent (1%) of the aggregate Purchase Price of such holder's Securities then held by such holder on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every thirtieth day (pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) thereafter until the earlier of (i) the date such Public Information Failure is cured and (ii) such time that such public information is no longer required pursuant to Rule 144.  The payments to which a holder shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 4(r) are referred to herein as "Public Information Failure Payments."  Public Information Failure Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (I) the last day of the calendar month during which such Public Information Failure Payments are incurred and (II) the third (3rd) Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Public Information Failure Payments is cured.  In the event the Company fails to make Public Information Failure Payments in a timely manner, such Public Information Failure Payments shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full.

For so long as any of the Notes are outstanding or the Common Stock held by the Buyers represent more than 40% of the outstanding Common Stock, the Company, at each annual (or special) meeting, or action in lieu of a meeting, of stockholders of the Company at which directors are to be elected, shall nominate and recommend for election three individuals designated by Hale to serve as directors, and such directors designated by Hale shall serve on such committees of the Company's Board of Directors as such director desires, provided that such designees meet the requisite listing and SEC requirements for membership on such committees.  If none of the Notes are outstanding and if the Common Stock held by the Buyers represent more than 20% but not more than 40% of the outstanding Common Stock, the Company, at each annual (or special) meeting, or action in lieu of a meeting, of stockholders of the Company at which directors are to be elected, shall nominate and recommend for election two individuals designated by Hale to serve as directors, and such directors designated by Hale shall serve on such committees of the Company's Board of Directors as such director desires, provided that such designees meet the requisite listing and SEC requirements for membership on such committees.  If none of the Notes are outstanding and if the Common Stock held by the Buyers represent more than 10% but not more than 20% of the outstanding Common Stock, the Company, at each annual (or special) meeting, or action in lieu of a meeting, of stockholders of the Company at which directors are to be elected, shall nominate and recommend for election one individual designated by Hale to serve as a director, and such director designated by Hale shall serve on such committees of the Company's Board of Directors as such director desires, provided that such designee meets the requisite listing and SEC requirements for membership on such committees.

(iii) The Company shall cause each individual designated by Hale for nomination in accordance with this Section 4(v) to be included in the Board of Director's "slate" of nominees for the applicable meeting, or action in lieu of a meeting, of stockholders and shall use reasonable best efforts to solicit from its stockholders eligible to vote for the election of directors proxies (x) in favor of the election of such persons and (y) against removal of any such designee.

(vi) To the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, the Company shall indemnify each director designated by Hale from and against any and all losses which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such director in any way relating to or arising out of, or alleged to relate to or arise out of, the director's service in that capacity pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws or other governing documents and an indemnification agreement in the form heretofore provided to Hale.

 

(vii) The Directors designated by Hale shall be covered by the directors' and officers' liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance carried by the Company, the current benefits and levels of coverage of which have been disclosed to Hale.

 

(viii) So long as any Buyer holds at least 10% of the Common Shares issued to such Buyer at Closing and at the Subsequent Issuance Date, the Company shall notify Hale of all regular meetings and special meetings of the Company's Board of Directors and committees thereof at the same time that directors are given notice of such meetings, and shall afford any representative designated by Hale the right and opportunity to attend any such meeting in a non-voting observer capacity.  The rights and duties of the non-voting board observer of Hale shall arise solely out of this Agreement, and neither such observer nor Hale shall be deemed to owe any fiduciary duties to the Company or any of its shareholders by reason of such rights.  Such representative shall be entitled to receive all written materials and other information given to the directors of the Company in connection with any such meeting at the same time that such materials or information are given to such directors.  The Company, Board of Directors of the Company or each committee, as the case may be, shall inform the Hale representative in advance of the delivery of materials or the disclosure of material non-public information regarding the Company and allow the Hale representative, in his or her sole discretion, to forgo receiving such materials if material non-public information about the Company is contained in any such materials or is to be disclosed of any such meeting.

The Company shall deliver to the Collateral Agent Schedule II(A) to the Pledge and Security Agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, within 30 calendar days of the Closing Date.

 

5. REGISTER; TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.

 

(a) Register.  The Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to each holder of Securities), a register for the Securities in which the Company shall record the name and address of the Person in whose name the Securities have been issued (including the name and address of each transferee), the principal amount of Notes held by such Person, and the number of Common Shares, Redemption Shares and Post-Closing Adjustment Shares held by such Person.  The Company shall keep the register open and available at all times during business hours for inspection of any Buyer or its legal representatives.

 

(b) Transfer Agent Instructions.  The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions, substantially in the form of Exhibit H (the "Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions"), to its then transfer agent to issue certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), registered in the name of each Buyer or its respective nominee(s), for the Common Shares issued at Closing and at the Subsequent Issuance Date, for the Redemption Shares issuable pursuant to the Notes and for the Post-Closing Adjustment Shares issuable pursuant to Section 1(e) hereof in such amounts as specified from time to time by each Buyer to the Company.  The Company warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 2(g) hereof, will be given by the Company to its transfer agent with respect to the Common Shares, Redemption Shares and Post-Closing Adjustment Shares, and that the Common Shares, Redemption Shares and Post-Closing Adjustment Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.  If a Buyer effects a sale, assignment or transfer of the Common Shares, Redemption Shares and Post-Closing Adjustment Shares in accordance with Section 2(f), the Company shall permit the transfer and shall promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC in such name and in such denominations as reasonably specified by such Buyer to effect such sale, transfer or assignment.  In the event that such sale, assignment or transfer involves Common Shares, Redemption Shares or Post-Closing Adjustment Shares, sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144, the transfer agent shall issue such Securities to the Buyer, assignee or transferee, as the case may be, without any restrictive legend.  The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to a Buyer.  Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 5(b) will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 5(b), that a Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

9. MISCELLANEOUS.

 

(a) Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial.  All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York.  Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper.  Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.  EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

 

(b) Counterparts.

In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall be considered due execution and shall be binding upon the signatory thereto with the same force and effect as if the signature were an original.

 

(c) Headings.  The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement.

 

(d) Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties.  The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

No provision hereof may be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.  No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents and holders of Notes.

Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

(k) Indemnification.  In consideration of each Buyer's execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of the Company's other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Buyer and each other holder of the Securities and all of their stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing Persons' agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the "Indemnitees") from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements (the "Indemnified Liabilities"), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby or (c) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company) and arising out of or resulting from (i) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, (iii) any disclosure made by such Buyer pursuant to Section 4(i), or (iv) the status of such Buyer or holder of the Securities as an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 9(k):  (i) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Indemnified Liability if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and (ii) shall not apply to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent that such Indemnified Liability is solely the result of a breach by a Buyer of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligations of the Buyers made by the Buyers in the Transaction Documents.  Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the Investors pursuant to Section 9.  To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under applicable law.  Except as otherwise set forth herein, the mechanics and procedures with respect to the rights and obligations under this Section 9(k) shall be the same as those set forth in Section 6 of the Registration Rights Agreement.

(l) No Strict Construction.  The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.

 

(m) Remedies.  Each Buyer and each holder of the Securities shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have under any law.  Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law.  Furthermore, the Company recognizes that in the event that it fails to perform, observe, or discharge any or all of its obligations under the Transaction Documents, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Buyers.  The Company therefore agrees that the Buyers shall be entitled to seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security.

 

(n) Rescission and Withdrawal Right.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever any Buyer exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then, until such time that the Company has performed its related obligation in respect of such exercise, Buyer may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, such exercise in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights.

 

(o) Payment Set Aside.  To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to the Buyers hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or the Buyers enforce or exercise their rights hereunder or 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, foreign, 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 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.

 

(p) Independent Nature of Buyers' Obligations and Rights.  The obligations of each Buyer under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Buyer, and no Buyer shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Buyer under any Transaction Document.  Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Buyer pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Buyers as, and the Company acknowledges that the Buyers do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Buyers are in any way acting in concert or as a group, and the Company will not assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and the Company acknowledges that the Buyers are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.  The Company acknowledges and each Buyer confirms that it has independently participated in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors.  Each Buyer shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Buyer to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
