The decision of each of the Purchasers to purchase Units pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Purchaser independently of any other Purchaser. Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Each SEC Document, as of its date (or, if amended or superseded by a filing prior to the Closing Date, then on the date of such filing), did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

As of their respective dates, any financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents complied as to form and substance in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied in the United States (“GAAP”), during the periods involved (except in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements), correspond to the books and records of the Company and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company as of the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended.

(n)     Title to Property and Assets. Except as set forth in the SEC Documents, the properties and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries (including real property) are respectively owned by them, free and clear of all mortgages, deeds of trust, liens, charges, encumbrances and security interests except for (i) statutory liens for the payment of current taxes that are not yet delinquent and (ii) liens, encumbrances and security interests that are in the ordinary course of business and do not materially detract from the value of the properties and assets of the Company, taken as a whole. With respect to the property and assets leased by the Company and its Subsidiaries, the Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with such leases in all material respects and such leases are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by the Company and its Subsidiaries. All facilities, machinery, equipment, fixtures, vehicles and other properties owned, leased or used by the Company and its Subsidiaries are in good operating condition and repair and are reasonably fit and usable for the purposes for which they are being used.

Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for by them, and the Company does not have any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew any such existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

No executive officer of the Company, to the knowledge of the Company, is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant, and the continued employment of each such executive officer does not subject the Company to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters.

 

(iii)     The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations respecting labor, employment and employment practices and benefits, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where failure to be in compliance would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Neither the Company, nor any affiliate of the Company, nor, to the Company’s knowledge any person acting on its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause this Offering to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company in such a manner that would subject this Offering to the registration requirements of section 5 of the Securities Act.

The Purchaser represents that it has not been formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto acknowledge the Purchaser’s right at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Securities in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws and the laws of any other applicable jurisdiction, and as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement.

 

(d)     Investment Experience. The Purchaser understands that the purchase of the Units involves substantial risk. The Purchaser has experience as an investor in securities of companies and acknowledges that it can bear the economic risk of its investment in the Securities and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment in the Securities and protecting its own interests in connection with this investment, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment.

 

11

 

 

(e)     Accredited Investor Status. At the time the Purchaser was offered the Units, it was, and at the date hereof it is, an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and was (and at the date hereof is) resident in the state or other jurisdiction indicated on the signature pages hereof. 

 

(f)     Reliance Upon Purchaser Representations. The Purchaser understands that the issuance and sale of the Securities to the Purchaser will not be registered under the Securities Act, the securities laws of any State of the United States or the securities laws of any other applicable jurisdiction, on the ground that such issuance and sale will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof, and exempt from any comparable registration requirement under the securities laws of any other applicable jurisdiction, and that the Company’s reliance on such exemption is based on each Purchaser’s representations set forth herein.

 

(g)     Receipt of Information. The Purchaser has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the issuance and sale of the Shares, the business, properties, prospects, management and financial condition of the Company and to obtain any additional information requested and has received and considered all information it deems relevant to make an informed decision to purchase the Units. Neither such inquiries nor any other investigation conducted by or on behalf of such Purchaser or its representatives or counsel shall modify, amend or affect the Purchaser’s right to rely on the truth, accuracy and completeness of such information and the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement.

 

(h)     Restricted Securities. The Purchaser understands that none of the Securities have been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any State.

 

(i)     Legend. The Purchaser agrees that the certificates for the Securities shall bear a legend substantially as follows:

 

“THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS ESTABLISHED BY EVIDENCE TO SUCH EFFECT, THE FORM AND SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY.”

 

12

 

 

Certificates evidencing the Securities shall not contain any legend (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such Securities pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) if such Securities are eligible for sale under Rule 144(b)(1) without reliance on the conditions set forth in rule 144(c)(1) relating to the availability of current public information.

 

(j)     Insufficient Authorized Shares of Common Stock; Reservation of Shares. The Purchaser acknowledges and understands that the Company does not currently have a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock to issue the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock and the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants to be issued in the Offering. Following the Closing, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow the Company to issue all of the shares of Common Stock issuable (i) upon conversion of all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, (ii) exercise of all outstanding Warrants, and (iii) exercise or conversion, as applicable, of all other outstanding convertible securities of the Company (“Convertible Securities”); including by filing Articles of Amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida (the “Articles of Amendment”) increasing the Company’s authorized Common Stock and/or effecting a reverse split of the shares of Common Stock to permit the issuance of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares and all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of the Convertible Securities. It is understood and agreed that the Company will seek stockholder approval of the Articles of Amendment. It is hereby agreed by each Purchaser that in connection with such stockholder approval, each such Purchaser shall (i) cause all shares owned by such Purchaser, including shares owned by such Purchaser’s affiliates, representatives and family members, to be voted in favor of the Articles of Amendment, and (ii) take such other action as shall be reasonably necessary to cause the Articles of Amendment to become effective.

 

5.     COVENANTS RELATING TO CLOSING.

(b)     Blue Sky. The Company shall, on or before the Closing Date, take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for or to qualify the Shares and Warrants for sale to the Purchasers at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities or "Blue Sky" laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification). The Company shall make all filings and reports relating to the offer and sale of the Securities required under applicable securities or "Blue Sky" laws of the states of the United States following the Closing Date.

(e)     No Statute or Rule Challenging Transaction. No statute, rule, regulation, executive order, decree, ruling, injunction, action, proceeding or interpretation shall have been enacted, entered, promulgated, endorsed or adopted by any court or governmental authority of competent jurisdiction or any self-regulatory organization or the staff of any of the foregoing, having authority over the matters contemplated hereby which questions the validity of, or challenges or prohibits the consummation of, any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

8.     MISCELLANEOUS.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall be permitted to assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Purchasers or the Company, respectively.

(c)     Survival. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing and the issuance of the Units.
