Section 4.                      Conversion.

 

 

a) Voluntary Conversion. At any time after the Original Issue Date until this Note is no longer outstanding, this Note shall be convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of Common Stock at the option of the Holder, at any time and from time to time (subject to the conversion limitations set forth in Section 4(c) hereof).  The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to the Company a Notice of Conversion, the form of which is attached hereto as Annex A (a “Notice of Conversion”), specifying therein the principal amount of this Note to be converted, including accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and the date on which such conversion shall be effected (such date, which date shall be no earlier than the date on which the Company is deemed to receive the Notice of Conversion, the “Conversion Date”).  If no Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Conversion, the Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of Conversion is deemed delivered hereunder.  To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless the entire principal amount of this Note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, has been so converted. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this Note in an amount equal to the applicable conversion.  The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the principal amount(s) converted and the date of such conversion(s).  In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. The Holder, and any assignee by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

b) Conversion Price.  The conversion price shall be equal to $0.55, subject to adjustment herein (the “Conversion Price”).

c) Conversion Limitation – Holder’s Restriction on Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not effect any conversion of this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note (or otherwise acquire Conversion Shares with respect to this Note), to the extent that after giving effect to the issuance of Common Stock upon such conversion (or other issuance), the Holder Group would beneficially own in excess of the Maximum Ownership Percentage of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon such conversion (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion or issuance) (“Beneficial Ownership Limitation”).  For purposes of calculating the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder Group shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (including without limitation Regulation 13D-G), provided, however, that such beneficial ownership shall exclude any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion, exchange or exercise of (or purchase of Common Stock under) any Convertible Securities or Options outstanding at the time of determination and beneficially owned by the Holder Group which contain a limitation on conversion, exchange, exercise or purchase analogous to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein.  To the extent that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein applies, the determination of whether and to what extent this Note is convertible (vis-à-vis other Convertible Securities or Options, including without limitation other Notes, beneficially owned by the Holder Group) shall be on the basis of first submission to the Company for conversion, exchange, exercise or purchase, as the case may be, or as otherwise determined in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether and to what extent this Note is convertible (vis-à-vis such other Convertible Securities or Options), in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.  In determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock for purposes of calculating the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (i) the Company’s most recent Periodic Report containing such information, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company, or (iii) any other notice or disclosure by the Company or the Company’s Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, and the Holder may rely on knowledge it may have concerning any shares of Common Stock issued which are not reflected in the preceding clauses (i) through (iii) (e.g., issuances to the Holder upon a prior Note conversion since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported).  Upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Business Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.  Each delivery of a Notice of Conversion by the Holder will constitute a representation by the Holder that it has evaluated the limitation set forth in this Section 4(c) and determined, based on this Section 4(c), that the issuance of the 

 

  

5

  

 

full number of Conversion Shares requested in such Notice of Conversion is permitted under this Section 4(c), and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm such determination.  No conversion of this Note in violation of this Section 4(c) but otherwise in accordance with this Note shall affect the status of the Conversion Shares as validly issued, fully-paid and nonassessable.  The Maximum Ownership Percentage shall be 9.9%.  By written notice to the Company, the Holder may at any time and from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Ownership Percentage to any other percentage specified in such notice (or specify that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall no longer be applicable), provided, however, that (A) any such increase (or inapplicability) shall not be effective until the sixty-first (61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company, (B) any such increase or decrease shall apply only to the Holder, and (C) the Maximum Ownership Percentage shall not be less than 4.9%.  The provisions of this Section 4(c) shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 4(c) to correct this provision (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained herein or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation.  The Beneficial Ownership Limitation contained in this Section shall apply to a successor Holder of this Note.  If at any time the Beneficial Ownership Limitation makes this Note unconvertible in whole or in part, the Company shall not by reason thereof be relieved of its obligation to issue shares of Common Stock at any time or from time to time thereafter upon conversion of this Note as and when shares of Common Stock may be issued in compliance with such limitation.

 

 

	
d)  

	
Mechanics of Conversion.

 

i. Conversion Shares Issuable Upon Conversion of Principal Amount.  The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal amount of this Note to be converted plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon, by (y) the Conversion Price.

ii. Delivery of Certificate Upon Conversion. Not later than three Trading Days after each Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Conversion Shares which, on or after the Legend Removal Date and provided that the Conversion Shares may be sold without restrictions pursuant to the provisions of Rule 144, shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions (other than those which may then be required by the Purchase Agreement) representing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion of this Note.  On or after the date which is six months following the Original Issue Date on which this Note is issued, the Company shall use its best efforts to deliver any certificate(s) or shares required to be delivered by the Company under this Section 4 electronically through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions (provided that to the extent reasonably requested the Holder may be required to covenant to the Company in writing that it will sell such shares only in compliance with Rule 144 or Section 4(1) of the Securities Act if such shares are not registered for resale under the Securities Act).  The Company’s obligation in the immediately preceding sentence shall not apply with respect to a Holder that is an Affiliate.

 

  

6

  

 

iii. Failure to Deliver Certificates.  If in the case of any Notice of Conversion such certificate(s) or shares are not delivered to or as directed by the applicable Holder by the third Trading Day after the Conversion Date, the Holder shall be entitled to elect by written notice to the Company at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates, to rescind such Conversion, in which event the Company shall promptly return to the Holder any original Note delivered to the Company and the Holder shall promptly return to the Company the Common Stock certificates representing the principal amount of this Note unsuccessfully tendered for conversion to the Company.

iv. Obligation Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages.  The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided, however, that such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such action the Company may have against the Holder.  In the event the Holder of this Note shall elect to convert any or all of the outstanding principal amount hereof, the Company may not refuse conversion based on any claim that the Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with the Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to the Holder, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or part of this Note shall have been sought and obtained, and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of the Holder in the amount of 150% of the outstanding principal amount of this Note, which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to the Holder to the extent it obtains judgment.  In the absence of such injunction, the Company shall issue Conversion Shares or, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion.  If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate(s) or shares pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii) by the second Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of principal amount being converted, $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such second Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date until such certificates are delivered.  Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8 hereof for the Company’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and the Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.  The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.

v. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Conversion. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate(s) or shares by the Share Delivery Date pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii), and if after such Share Delivery Date the Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise), or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Conversion Shares which the Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating to such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder (in addition to any other remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the amount by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that the Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions) and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) this Note in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of the attempted conversion or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Company had timely complied with its delivery requirements under Section 4(d)(ii).  For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of this Note with respect to which the actual sale price of the Conversion Shares (including any brokerage commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of $10,000 under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000.  The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss.  Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof, provided that the liquidated damages provided for in subsection 4(d)(iv) above with respect to Conversion Shares subject to a Buy-In shall cease accruing on the date on which the Company pays the Holder such Buy-In amount payable pursuant to this paragraph if the Holder elects to then cancel such conversion pursuant to clause (B) above.

vi. Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Note and payment of interest on this Note, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder, not less than such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock as shall (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement) be issuable (taking into account the adjustments of Section 5) upon the conversion of the outstanding principal amount of this Note and payment of interest hereunder.  The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

vii. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the conversion of this Note.  As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such conversion, the Company shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share.

viii. Transfer Taxes.  The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of this Note shall be made without charge to the Holder hereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificates, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder of this Note and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

Section 5.                      Certain Adjustments.

 

 

a) Stock Dividends and Stock Splits.  If the Company, at any time while this Note is outstanding: (A) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock as a class or any Common Stock Equivalents (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon conversion of, or payment of interest on, the Note); (B) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares; (C) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; or (D) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of the Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event.  Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

  

9

  

 

b) Subsequent Equity Sales.  The Conversion Price is subject to Full Ratchet Anti-Dilution Adjustment.  Notwithstanding the above sentence, a transaction with an effective conversion price that is equal to or greater than the effective conversion price of this Note with substantially similar terms, or on terms no more favorable to the investor than as provided to the Purchaser under the Purchase Agreement, shall not be subject to any adjustment under this Section 5(b).

 

c) Subsequent Rights Offerings.  If the Company, at any time while the Note is outstanding, shall issue rights, options or warrants to all holders of Common Stock (and not to Holder) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is lower than the VWAP on the record date referenced below, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights or warrants plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase, and of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights or warrants plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares issued (assuming delivery to the Company in full of all consideration payable upon exercise of such rights, options or warrants) would purchase at such VWAP.  Such adjustment shall be made whenever such rights or warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants.

 

 

d) Pro Rata Distributions. If the Company, at any time while this Note is outstanding, distributes to all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holder in its capacity as holder of this Note) evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security (other than the Common Stock, which shall be subject to Section 5(b)), then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be adjusted by multiplying such Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such VWAP on such record date less the then fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed applicable to 1 outstanding share of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith.  In either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement delivered to the Holder describing the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to 1 share of Common Stock.  Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above.

  

10

  

 

e) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Note is outstanding, the Company effects or there otherwise occurs a Fundamental Transaction, then, upon any subsequent conversion of this Note, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of 1 share of Common Stock (the “Alternate Consideration”).  For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of 1 share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration.  If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Note following such Fundamental Transaction.  To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder a new Note consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right to convert such Note into Alternate Consideration.  The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 5(e) and insuring that this Note (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.

f) Calculations.  All calculations under this Section 5 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.  For purposes of this Section 5, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Company) issued and outstanding.

g) Notice to the Holder.

i. Adjustment to Conversion Price.  Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 5, the Company shall promptly deliver to each Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

  

11

  

 

ii. Notice to Allow Conversion by Holder.  If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock as a class, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock as a class, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, of any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of this Note, and shall cause to be delivered to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the Note Register, at least 15 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice.

vii. if at any time the capital stock issuable upon conversion of this Note shall not be eligible for listing or quotation for trading on an Eligible Market and shall not be eligible to resume listing or quotation for trading thereon within five (5) Trading Days;

viii. the Company shall be a party to any Change of Control Transaction or Fundamental Transaction (other than an Exempt Issuance) or shall agree to sell or dispose of all or in excess of 33% of its assets (other than inventory in the ordinary course of business) in one transaction or a series of related transactions (whether or not such sale would constitute a Change of Control Transaction);

ix. if at any time after three months following the Closing Date the Company is not subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or has failed to file all reports required to be filed thereunder during the then preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the Company was required to file such reports);

  

14

  

 

x. if at any time after six months following the Closing Date, all the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of this Note are not either (i) freely tradable pursuant to an effective Registration Statement which contains a current and available Prospectus covering the resale of such shares by the Holder, or (ii) freely tradable pursuant to Rule 144 without any volume restrictions, manner of sale requirements or notice requirements (or may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 with volume restrictions, manner of sale requirements or notice requirements if the Holder is an Affiliate of the Company), which shall be confirmed by counsel to the Company (reasonably acceptable to the Holder) in a legal opinion in form and substance typically provided under Rule 144 and reasonably acceptable to the Holder;

xiii. if Dennis J. Carlo ceases to (a) serve in the capacity with the Company in which he serves as of the Closing Date and (b) perform the duties consistent with such capacity for similarly situated companies, provided that if such cessation is due to death, permanent disability, voluntary termination or termination by the Company for cause, then (A) an Event of Default shall not be deemed to have occurred unless and until the Company shall have failed to retain a replacement reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser within 60 days following such death, permanent disability, voluntary termination or termination by the Company for cause, and (B) following any such acceptable replacement this clause shall apply to such replacement in lieu of such person.

b) Remedies Upon Event of Default. While an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the Holder’s election, immediately due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount.  Notwithstanding any such election to accelerate, upon any Event of Default (i) the outstanding principal amount hereunder shall be automatically increased to equal 120% of the outstanding principal hereunder, and (ii) the 

 

  

15

  

 

Conversion Price hereunder shall be automatically adjusted to equal the Default Conversion Price.  After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the interest rate on this Note shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 24% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law.  Upon the payment in full of the Mandatory Default Amount, the Holder shall promptly surrender this Note to or as directed by the Company.  In connection with such acceleration described herein, the Holder need not provide, and the Company hereby waives, any presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, and the Holder may immediately and without expiration of any grace period enforce any and all of its rights and remedies hereunder and all other remedies available to it under applicable law.  Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by Holder at any time prior to payment hereunder and the Holder shall have all rights as a holder of the Note until such time, if any, as the Holder receives full payment pursuant to this Section 8(b).  No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.  For clarification and without limiting any of the foregoing, if an Event of Default occurs pursuant to Section 8(a)(x) above, the Conversion Price hereunder shall automatically be irrevocably adjusted to equal the Default Conversion Price and the outstanding principal amount hereunder shall be automatically and irrevocably increased to equal 120% of the outstanding principal hereunder.

c)  Due on Sale.  If the Company shall be a party to any Change of Control Transaction or Fundamental Transaction which constitutes an Exempt Issuance, then the outstanding principal amount of this Note, plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the Holder’s election, immediately due and payable in cash.

Section 9.                      Miscellaneous.

 

a) Notices.  Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Holder hereunder, including, without limitation, any Notice of Conversion, shall be in writing and delivered personally, by facsimile, by email, or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, addressed to the Company, at the address set forth above, or such other facsimile number, email address or mailing address as the Company may specify for such purpose by notice to the Holder delivered in accordance with this Section 9.  Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Company hereunder shall be in writing and delivered personally, by facsimile, by email or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service addressed to each Holder at the facsimile number or address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company, or if no such facsimile number or address appears, at the principal place of business of the Holder.  Except as may otherwise be provided herein, any notice or other communication or deliveries hereunder shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile or by email prior to 4:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading Day, with electronic confirmation of such delivery, (ii) the first Trading Day immediately following the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile or by email not on a Trading Day or between 4:30 p.m. (New York City time) and  11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on any date, with electronic confirmation of such delivery, (iii) the second Business Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given.  The address, facsimile and email address for such notices and communications shall be as set forth on the signature pages attached to the Purchase Agreement.

b) Absolute Obligation. Except as expressly provided herein, no provision of this Note shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, liquidated damages and accrued interest, as applicable, on this Note at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.  This Note is a direct debt obligation of the Company.

c) Lost or Mutilated Note.  If this Note shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall execute and deliver, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of a mutilated Note, or in lieu of or in substitution for a lost, stolen or destroyed Note, a new Note for the principal amount of this Note so mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, but only upon receipt of evidence of such loss, theft or destruction of such Note, and of the ownership hereof, reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

d) Governing Law.  All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Note shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws thereof.  Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretation, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan (the “New York Courts”).  Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), 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 such New York Courts, or such New York Courts are improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding.  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 via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Note 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 other manner permitted by applicable law.

If either party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Note, then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorney’s fees and other reasonable costs and expenses reasonably incurred in the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.

  

17

  

 

e) Waiver.  Any waiver by the Company or the Holder of a breach of any provision of this Note shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Note.  The failure of the Company or the Holder to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Note on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Note.  Any waiver by the Company or the Holder must be in writing.

f) Severability.  If any provision of this Note is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the balance of this Note shall remain in effect, and if any provision is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other Persons and circumstances.  If it shall be found that any interest or other amount deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable law governing usury, the applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to equal the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable law. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on this Note as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this indenture, and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefits or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impeded the execution of any power herein granted to the Holder, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such as though no such law has been enacted.

g) Next Business Day.  Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

h) Headings.  The headings contained herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Note and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

i) Assumption.  Any successor to the Company or any surviving entity in a Fundamental Transaction shall (i) assume, prior to such Fundamental Transaction, all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other Transaction Documents pursuant to written agreements in form and substance satisfactory to the Holder (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (ii) issue to the Holder a new Note of such successor entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Note, including, without limitation, having a principal amount and interest rate equal to the principal amount and the interest rate of this Note and having similar ranking to this Note, which shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Holder (any such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).  The provisions of this Section 9(i) shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and shall be applied without regard to any limitations of this Note.

  

18

  

 

j) Usury.  This Note shall be subject to the anti-usury limitations contained in the Purchase Agreement.

Exhibit 10.3

 

 

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE, dated as of June ___, 2012 (this “Guarantee”), made by Adamis Corporation, a Delaware corporation, Adamis Laboratories, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Adamis Viral Therapies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (collectively and together with any other entity that may become a party hereto as provided herein, the “Guarantor”, and together with the Company (as defined below), the “Debtors”), in favor of the purchaser (including such purchaser’s successors, transferees and assigns, the “Purchaser”) signatory to the Purchase Agreement (as defined below).

 

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) dated on or about the date hereof by and between Adamis Pharmaceuticals Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the Purchaser, the Company has agreed to sell and issue to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser has agreed to purchase from the Company the Company’s 10% Senior Convertible Note (the “Note”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein;

WHEREAS, Guarantor is a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Company, and as a condition to the Closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, and in order to induce the Purchaser to enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (including without limitation purchasing the Note and making the loans evidenced thereby), the Company has agreed that the Guarantor would guaranty the Company’s obligations under the Note, Purchase Agreement and other Transaction Documents in accordance with the terms set forth in this Guaranty, the Note, the Purchase Agreement and other Transaction Documents; and

WHEREAS, Guarantor will directly benefit from the extension of credit to the Company represented by the issuance of the Note;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and to induce the Purchaser to enter into the applicable Purchase Agreement and to carry out the transactions contemplated thereby, Guarantor hereby agrees with the Purchaser as follows:

 

 

1. Definitions. Unless otherwise defined herein, initially capitalized terms defined in the Purchase Agreement and used herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Purchase Agreement.  The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereto” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Guarantee shall refer to this Guarantee as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Guarantee, and Section and Schedule references are to this Guarantee unless otherwise specified. The meanings given to terms defined herein shall be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of such terms.  The following terms shall have the following meanings:

“Guarantee” means this Subsidiary Guarantee, as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time.

 

  

  

  

 

            “Obligations” means, in addition to all other costs and expenses of collection incurred by Purchaser in enforcing any of such Obligations and/or this Guarantee, all of the liabilities and obligations (primary, secondary, direct, contingent, sole, joint or several) due or to become due, or that are now or may be hereafter contracted or acquired, or owing, of any Debtor to the Purchaser pursuant to the Transaction Documents, including without limitation all obligations under the Purchase Agreement, the Note, this Guarantee and any other instruments, agreements or other documents executed and/or delivered in connection herewith or therewith, in each case, whether now or hereafter existing, voluntary or involuntary, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, whether or not jointly owed with others, and whether or not from time to time decreased or extinguished and later increased, created or incurred, and all or any portion of such obligations or liabilities that are paid, to the extent all or any part of such payment is avoided or recovered directly or indirectly from any of the Purchaser as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, as such obligations may be amended, supplemented, converted, extended or modified from time to time.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term “Obligations” shall include without limitation: (i) principal of, and interest on, the Note and the loans extended pursuant thereto; (ii) any and all other fees, indemnities, costs, obligations and liabilities of the Debtors from time to time under or in connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Note, this Guarantee and any other instruments, agreements or other documents executed and/or delivered in connection herewith or therewith; and (iii) all amounts (including but not limited to post-petition interest) in respect of the foregoing that would be payable but for the fact that the obligations to pay such amounts are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving any Debtor.

2. Guarantee.

(a) Guarantee.

(i) The Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Purchaser and its respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance by the Company when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations.  The Guarantor’s liability under this Guarantee shall be unlimited, open and continuous for so long as this Guarantee remains in force.

 

 

(ii) Anything herein or in any other Transaction Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of Guarantor hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by the Guarantor under applicable federal and state laws, including laws relating to the insolvency of debtors, fraudulent conveyance or transfer or laws affecting the rights of creditors generally (after giving effect to the right of contribution set forth in Section 2(b)).

(iii) Guarantor agrees that the Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of the Guarantor hereunder without impairing the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or affecting the rights and remedies of the Purchaser hereunder.

 

  

2

  

 

(iv) The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall remain in full force and effect until all the Obligations and the obligations of Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall have been satisfied by payment in full.

(v) No payment made by the Company, the Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Purchaser from the Company, the Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of the Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by the Guarantor in respect of the Obligations or any payment received or collected from the Guarantor in respect of the Obligations), remain liable for the Obligations up to the maximum liability of the Guarantor hereunder until the Obligations are paid in full.

(vi) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Guarantee, with respect to any defaulted non-monetary Obligations the specific performance of which by the Guarantor is not reasonably possible (e.g. the issuance of the Company's Common Stock), the Guarantor shall only be liable for making the Purchaser whole on a monetary basis for the Company's failure to perform such Obligations in accordance with the Transaction Documents.

(b) Right of Contribution.  Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, the Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment.  Guarantor's right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2(c).  The provisions of this Section 2(b) shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantor to the Purchaser, and Guarantor shall remain liable to the Purchaser for the full amount guaranteed by the Guarantor hereunder.

(c) No Subrogation.  Notwithstanding any payment made by the Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of the Guarantor by the Purchaser, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Purchaser against the Company or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Purchaser for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall the Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Company or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by the Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Purchaser by the Company on account of the Obligations are paid in full.  If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations have not been paid in full, such amount shall be held by the Guarantor in trust for the Purchaser, segregated from other funds of the Guarantor, and shall, promptly following receipt by the Guarantor, be turned over to the Purchaser in the exact form received by the Guarantor (duly indorsed by the Guarantor to the Purchaser, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Purchaser may determine.

  

3

  

 

(d) Amendments, Etc. With Respect to the Obligations.  Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against the Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by the Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Purchaser may be rescinded by the Purchaser and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Purchaser, and the Purchase Agreement, the Note and the other Transaction Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Purchaser may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Purchaser for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. The Purchaser shall have no obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or any property subject thereto.

(e) Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional.  Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Purchaser upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Section 2; the Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2; and all dealings between the Company and the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2.  Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Company or the Guarantor with respect to the Obligations.  Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Purchase Agreement, the Note or any other Transaction Document, any of the Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Purchaser, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment and performance in full of the Obligations) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Company or any other Person against the Purchaser, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Company or the Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Company for the Obligations, or of the Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against the Guarantor, the Purchaser may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as they may have against the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Purchaser to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve the Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Purchaser against the Guarantor.  For the purposes hereof, “demand” shall include without limitation the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

(f) Reinstatement.  The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Purchaser upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Company or the Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Company or the Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

(g) Payments.  Guarantor hereby guarantees that payments hereunder will be paid to the Purchaser without set-off or counterclaim in U.S. dollars at the address set forth or referred to in the Purchase Agreement.

3. Representations and Warranties. Except as qualified by a writing delivered by the Company to the Purchaser on or prior to the execution of this Agreement, Guarantor hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Purchaser as of the date hereof:

 

 

(a) Organization and Qualification. The Guarantor is a corporation, duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the applicable jurisdiction set forth on Schedule 1, with the requisite corporate power and authority to own and use its properties and assets and to carry on its business as currently conducted. The Guarantor has no subsidiaries other than those identified as such on the Disclosure Schedules to the Purchase Agreement.  The Guarantor is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation 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, could not, individually or in the aggregate, (x) adversely affect the legality, validity or enforceability of any of this Guaranty in any material respect, (y) have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, assets, prospects, or financial condition of the Guarantor, or (z) adversely impair in any material respect the Guarantor's ability to perform fully on a timely basis its obligations under this Guaranty (a “Material Adverse Effect”).\

(b) Authorization; Enforcement.  The Guarantor has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Guaranty, and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder.  The execution and delivery of this Guaranty by the Guarantor and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of the Guarantor.  This Guaranty has been duly executed and delivered by the Guarantor and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Guarantor enforceable against the Guarantor in accordance with its terms.

 

  

5

  

 

(c) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty by the Guarantor and the consummation by the Guarantor of the transactions contemplated thereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or violate any provision of its Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws or (ii) conflict with, constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Guarantor is a party, 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 Guarantor is subject (including federal and state securities laws and regulations), or by which any material property or asset of the Guarantor is bound or affected, except in the case of each of clauses (ii) and (iii) such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, accelerations, cancellations and violations as could not, individually or in the aggregate, have or result in a Material Adverse Effect.  The business of the Guarantor is not being conducted in violation of any law, ordinance or regulation of any governmental authority, except for violations which, individually or in the aggregate, do not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) Consents and Approvals.  The Guarantor is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local, foreign or other governmental authority or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Guarantor of this Guaranty.

(e) Purchase Agreement.  The representations and warranties of the Company set forth in the Purchase Agreement as they relate to the Guarantor, each of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference, are true and correct as of each time such representations are deemed to be made pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, and the Purchaser shall be entitled to rely on each of them as if they were fully set forth herein, provided that each reference in each such representation and warranty to the Company's knowledge shall, for the purposes of this Section 3, be deemed to be a reference to the Guarantor's knowledge.

(f) Company’s Request.  This Guarantee is executed at the Company’s request and not at the request of the Purchaser.

(g) Obtaining Company Information.  The Guarantor has established adequate means of obtaining from the Company on a continuing basis information regarding the Company’s financial condition.

(h) Solvency.  Except as set forth on Schedule 3.4(v) of the Disclosure Schedule, as of the date hereof and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby (a) the property of the Guarantor, at a fair valuation, will exceed its debt; (b) the capital of the Guarantor will not be unreasonably small to conduct its business; (c) the Guarantor will not have incurred debts, or have intended to incur debts, beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature; and (d) the present fair salable value of the assets of the Guarantor will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay its probable liabilities (including debts) as they become absolute and matured.  For purposes of this subsection (i), “debt” means any liability on a claim, and “claim” means (i) the right to payment, whether or not such right is reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, undisputed, legal, equitable, secured or unsecured, or (ii) the right to an equitable remedy for breach of performance if such breach gives rise to a right to payment, whether or not such right to an equitable remedy is reduced to judgment, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, undisputed, secured or unsecured.

4. Covenants.

(a) Actions.  Guarantor covenants and agrees with the Purchaser that, from and after the date of this Guarantee until the Obligations shall have been paid in full, the Guarantor shall take, and/or shall refrain from taking, as the case may be, each commercially reasonable action that is necessary to be taken or not taken, as the case may be, so that no Event of Default is caused by the failure to take such action or to refrain from taking such action by the Guarantor.

(b) Insurance.  So long as the Note remains outstanding, the Guarantor shall have in full force and effect (a) insurance reasonably believed by the Guarantor to be adequate on all assets and activities, covering property damage and loss of income by fire or other casualty, and (b) insurance reasonably believed to be adequate protection against all liabilities, claims and risks against which it is customary for companies similarly situated as the Guarantor to insure.

(c) Compliance with Laws.  So long as the Note remains outstanding, Guarantor will use reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, orders and decrees of all governmental authorities, except to the extent non-compliance (in one instance or in the aggregate) would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) Corporate Existence; Merger and Consolidation.  So long as the Note remains outstanding, the Guarantor shall maintain their corporate existence.  The Guarantor shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all its assets to, any Person, except to the same extent that the Company is so permitted, and in accordance with the same provisions applicable to the Company, in the Purchase Agreement or the Note (with the assumption of obligations applying to the assumption of the obligations under this Guarantee).

(e) Taxes.  The Guarantor shall pay, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries to pay, prior to delinquency, all material taxes, assessments, and governmental levies except such as are contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings or where the failure to effect such payment is not adverse in any material respect to the Guarantor or the Purchaser.

(f) Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.  The Guarantor covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Guarantee; and the Guarantor (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any right herein granted to the Purchaser, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such right as though no such law has been enacted.

  

7

  

 

(g) Negative Covenants.  So long as any of the Obligations are outstanding, unless Purchaser shall otherwise consent in writing, Guarantor will not directly or indirectly on or after the date of this Guarantee:

i. other than Permitted Indebtedness (as defined in the Note), enter into, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any indebtedness for borrowed money of any kind, including but not limited to, a guarantee, on or with respect to any of its property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom;

ii. other than Permitted Liens (as defined in the Note), enter into, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any liens of any kind, on or with respect to any of its property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom;

iii. amend its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other charter documents so as to adversely affect any rights of the Purchaser hereunder;

iv. repay, repurchase or offer to repay, repurchase or otherwise acquire more than a de minimis number of shares of its securities or debt obligations other than the repurchase of shares at a nominal price from current or former officers, directors or key employees of the Company pursuant to the terms of written agreements existing on the Original Issue Date of the Note;

v. repay, repurchase or offer to repay, repurchase or otherwise acquire any Indebtedness, other than regularly scheduled principal and interest payments as such terms are in effect as of the Closing Date;

vi. pay cash dividends or distributions on any equity securities of the Guarantor;

vii. enter into any transaction with any Affiliate of the Guarantor which would be required to be disclosed in any public filing of the Company with the Commission, unless such transaction is made on an arm’s-length basis and expressly approved by a majority of the directors of the Company other than the Affiliate who is a party to the transaction (even if less than a quorum otherwise required for board approval); or

viii. enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing;

provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be prohibited from undertaking any of the actions described above that the Company is permitted to undertake pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Note and any and all other agreements or other documents entered into in connection with the financings contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

5. Miscellaneous.

(a) Amendments in Writing.   None of the terms or provisions of this Guarantee may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in writing by Purchaser.

 

 

(b) Notices.  All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Purchaser or the Guarantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in the Purchase Agreement, provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon the Guarantor shall be addressed to the Guarantor at its notice address set forth on Schedule 1.

(c) No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. The Purchaser shall not by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 5(a)), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any default under the Transaction Documents or Event of Default.  No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Purchaser any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof.  No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  A waiver by the Purchaser of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Purchaser would otherwise have on any future occasion.  The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

(d) Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification.

(i) Guarantor agrees to pay, or reimburse the Purchaser for, all costs and expenses incurred in collecting against the Guarantor for amounts owed under the guarantee contained in Section 2 or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Guarantee and the other Transaction Documents to which the Guarantor is a party, including without limitation the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Purchaser.

 

 

(ii) Guarantor agrees to pay, and to save the Purchaser harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Guarantee.

(iii) Guarantor agrees to pay, and to save the Purchaser harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Guarantee to the extent the Company would be required to do so pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

(iv) The agreements in this Section shall survive repayment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Purchase Agreement, the Note and the other Transaction Documents.

 

  

9

  

 

(e) Successor and Assigns. This Guarantee shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Purchaser and their respective successors and assigns; provided that no Guarantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Guarantee without the prior written consent of the Purchaser.

(f) Set-Off.  Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Purchaser at any time and from time to time while an Event of Default under any of the Transaction Documents shall have occurred and be continuing, without notice to the Guarantor or any other guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by Guarantor, to set-off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits, credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by the Purchaser to or for the credit or the account of the Guarantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as the Purchaser may elect, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantor to the Purchaser hereunder and claims of every nature and description of the Purchaser against the Guarantor, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Purchase Agreement, any other Transaction Document or otherwise, as the Purchaser may elect, whether or not the Purchaser have made any demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured.  The Purchaser shall notify the Guarantor in writing promptly of any such set-off and the application made by the Purchaser of the proceeds thereof, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application so long as the Guarantor is not materially adversely affected by the failure to promptly deliver such notice.  The rights of the Purchaser under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including without limitation other rights of set-off) which the Purchaser may have.

(g) Counterparts.  This Guarantee may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Guarantee on any number of separate counterparts (including by fax or PDF), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

(h) Severability.  Any provision of this Guarantee which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

(i) Section Headings.  The Section headings used in this Guarantee are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

(j) Integration.  This Guarantee and the other Transaction Documents represent the agreement of the Guarantor and the Purchaser with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Purchaser relative to subject matter hereof and thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Transaction Documents.

 

  

10

  

 

(k) Governing Law.  This guarantee shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the law of the state of New York without regard to any principles of conflicts of laws.

(l) Submission to Jurisdictional; Waiver. Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(i) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Guarantee and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the Courts of the State of New York, located in New York County, New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;

 

 

(ii) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

(iii) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Guarantor at its address referred to in Schedule 1 below or at such other address of which the Purchaser shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

(iv) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and

(v) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

(m) Acknowledgements.  Guarantor hereby acknowledges that:

(i) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Guarantee and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party;

(ii) the Purchaser have no fiduciary relationship with or duty to the Guarantor arising out of or in connection with this Guarantee or any of the other Transaction Documents, and the relationship between the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

(iii) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Transaction Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby between the Guarantor and the Purchaser.

 

  

11

  

 

(n) Release of Guarantor. Subject to Section 2, Guarantor will be released from all liability hereunder concurrently with the repayment in full of all amounts owed under the Purchase Agreement, the Note and the other Transaction Documents.

(o) Seniority. The Obligations of the Guarantor hereunder rank senior in priority to any other Indebtedness (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) of the Guarantor.

(p) Waiver of Jury Trial.  GUARANTOR AND, BY ACCEPTANCE OF THE BENEFITS HEREOF, THE PURCHASER, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS GUARANTEE AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.
