Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the parties to this Agreement shall use their respective good faith commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, without any party being obligated to incur any material internal costs or make any payment or payments to any third party or parties which, individually or in the aggregate, are material and are not otherwise legally required to be made, all actions, and to do or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable for such party to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, each Closing and the other transactions contemplated hereunder.
6.2 Post-Closing Filings. In connection with each Closing, the Company and the Purchasers, if applicable, agree to file all required forms or filings under applicable securities laws.
6.3 Transfer Restrictions.
6.3.1 The Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, to the Company or to an Affiliate of a Purchaser, the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights of a Purchaser under this Agreement.
6.3.2 The Purchaser agrees to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 6.1, of a legend on any of the Securities, including the Warrant Shares, substantially in the following form:
[NEITHER] THIS SECURITY [NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS SECURITY IS EXERCISABLE HAS [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 OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY.
-16-
6.3.3 Certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock and Warrant Shares shall be eligible for removal of the restrictive legend set forth in Section 6.3.2 hereof, (a) following any sale of such shares of Common Stock or Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (b) if such shares of Common Stock, or Warrant Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such shares of Common Stock and Warrant Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions, (c) following any sale of such shares of Common Stock, or Warrant Shares, pursuant to the plan of distribution in an effective registration statement (in compliance with any prospectus delivery requirements), or (d) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) (the “Removal Date”). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly after the Removal Date if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder as permitted by applicable law then in effect. The Company agrees that following the Removal Date, it will, no later than five (5) trading days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate representing shares of Common Stock or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, issued with a restrictive legend, together with any reasonable certifications requested by the Company, the Company’s counsel or the Transfer Agent (such fifth (5th) trading day, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 6. Certificates for shares of Common Stock and Warrant Shares subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Purchaser by crediting the account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by such Purchaser if the Transfer Agent is then a participant in such system and the Company is eligible to use such system and as directed by such Purchaser if either (i) there is an effective registration statement permitting the resale of such shares of Common Stock, or Warrant Shares by the Purchaser (and the Purchaser provides the Company or the Company’s counsel with any requested certifications with respect to future sales of such shares) or (ii) the shares are eligible for resale by the Purchaser under Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such shares of Common Stock and Warrant Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions.
6.3.4 In addition to any other rights available to a Purchaser, if the Company fails to deliver to a Purchaser unlegended shares of Common Stock or Warrant Shares as required pursuant to this Agreement and after the Legend Removal Date such Purchaser, or a broker on such Purchaser’s behalf, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Purchaser of the shares of Common Stock or Warrant Shares that such Purchaser was entitled to receive from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall promptly pay in cash to such Purchaser (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by such Purchaser) the amount by which (a) such Purchaser’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (b) the aggregate purchase price of the shares of Common Stock or the Warrant Shares delivered to the Company for reissuance as unlegended shares (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty). For example, if a Purchaser purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to Common Stock or Warrant Shares delivered to the Company for reissuance as unlegended shares having an aggregate purchase price of $10,000, the Company shall be required to pay the Purchaser $1,000, plus interest. The Purchaser shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Purchaser in respect of the Buy-In. For purposes of this Agreement, the “purchase price” of a (a) share of Common Stock shall be $1.20 per share, and (B) Warrant Share shall be the Exercise Price (as defined in the Warrants).
6.3.5 In addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to such Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of shares of Common Stock or Warrant Shares (based on a purchase price of $1.20 per share of Common Stock or the Exercise Price for such Warrant Shares, as the case may be) delivered for removal of the restrictive legend, $10 per trading day (increasing to $20 per trading day five (5) trading days after such damages have begun to accrue)) for each trading day after the fifth (5th) trading day following the Legend Removal Date until such certificate is delivered without a legend. Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Company’s failure to deliver certificates representing any Securities as required by the Transaction Documents, and such Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.
6.4 Furnishing of Information; Public Information. For so long as any Purchaser holds any Securities, or if earlier, for a period of twenty-four (24) months following the Termination Date (or the Final Termination Date if the Offering is extended by the Company) the Company covenants to file all annual and quarterly periodic reports with the SEC pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act or alternatively, if registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, maintain the registration of the Common Stock under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all such annual and quarterly reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act. Unless the Securities owned by such Purchaser shall have been registered for resale, if at any time during the period commencing from the date that is 6 months after the date hereof and ending 24 months following the Termination Date (or the Final Termination Date if the Offering is extended by the Company) the Company shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c) (a “Public Information Failure”) then, in addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Securities, an amount in cash equal to two percent (2.0%) of the pro-rata portion of such Purchaser’s Purchase Price attributable to the unsold shares of Common Stock and Warrant Shares on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every thirtieth (30th) day (prorated for periods totaling less than thirty (30) days) thereafter until the earlier of (A) the date such Public Information Failure is cured and (B) such time that such public information is no longer required for the Purchasers to transfer their shares of Common Stock and Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144. The payments to which a Purchaser shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 6.4 are referred to herein as “Public Information Failure Payments”. Public Information Failure Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (Y) the last day of the calendar month during which such Public Information Failure Payments are incurred, and (Z) the third (3rd) business day after the event or failure giving rise to the Public Information Failure Payments is cured. Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Public Information Failure, and such Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the maximum payment hereunder shall not exceed twelve (12%) percent of such Purchaser’s Purchase Price. As long as any Purchaser owns Securities, if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to such laws, it will prepare and furnish to the Purchasers and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such information as is required for the Purchasers to sell the Securities under Rule 144. The Company further covenants that it will take such further action as any holder of Securities may reasonably request, to the extent required from time to time to enable such person to sell such Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the requirements of the exemption provided by Rule 144.
-17-
6.5 Listing of Securities. The Company agrees, (i) if the Company applies to have the Common Stock traded on any other trading market, it will include in such application the Warrant Shares of each Purchaser, and will take such other action as is necessary or desirable to cause such Common Stock and any Warrant Shares to be listed on such other trading market as promptly as possible, and (ii) it will take all action reasonably necessary to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on a Trading Market (as defined in the Warrant) and will comply in all material respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of any such Trading Market (as defined in the Warrant).
6.6 Reservation of Shares. From and after the Initial Closing and any Subsequent Closing, the Company shall at all times thereafter while the Common Stock and Warrants which were purchased and sold at such Closing are outstanding maintain a reserve from its duly authorized shares of Common Stock of a number of shares of Common Stock sufficient to allow for the issuance of Common Stock and Warrant Shares, which were the subject of such Closing.
6.7 Replacement of Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs associated with the issuance of such replacement securities. If a replacement certificate or instrument evidencing any securities is requested due to a mutilation thereof, the Company may require delivery of such mutilated certificate or instrument as a condition precedent to any issuance of a replacement.
6.8 Securities Laws; Publicity. The Company shall by 8:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the trading day immediately, following a Closing hereunder, file a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and including the Transaction Documents as exhibits thereto to the extent required by law. The Company shall not publicly disclose the name of Purchaser, or include the name of any Purchaser in any filing with the SEC or any regulatory agency or trading market, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, except: (a) as required by federal securities law in connection with the filing of final Transaction Documents (including signature pages thereto) with the SEC and (b) to the extent such disclosure is required by law, in which case the Company shall provide the Purchaser with prior notice of such disclosure permitted under this clause (b).
6.9 Form D; Blue Sky Filings. The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and to provide a copy thereof, promptly upon request of the Purchaser. The Company shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the Securities for, sale to the Purchaser at the Closing under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States, and shall provide evidence of such actions promptly upon request of any Purchaser.
6.10 Equal Treatment of Purchasers. No consideration (including any modification of any Transaction Document) 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 is also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents.
6.11 Non-Public Information. Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Company covenants and agrees that neither it, nor any other person acting on its behalf, will provide Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto Purchaser shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information. The Company understands and confirms that Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.
6.12 Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder for working capital purposes and shall not use the proceeds for (a) the satisfaction of any portion of the Company’s debt (other than payment of trade payables in the ordinary course of the Company’s business and prior practices), (b) the redemption of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents or (c) the settlement of any outstanding litigation.
6.13 Participation in Future Financing. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 6.13:
6.13.1 From the date hereof until the one year anniversary of the Final Closing Date, upon any issuance by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries (or any resulting Person due to any “Spin-Outs”) in an offering pursuant to which any of the foregoing raises gross proceeds of at least $1,000,000 of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (a “Subsequent Financing”), each Purchaser shall have the right to participate in up to an amount of the Subsequent Financing equal to such Purchaser’s proportionate share of the Subsequent Financing based on such Purchaser’s participation in this Offering (the “Participation Maximum”) on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the Subsequent Financing.
-18-
6.13.2 At least 10 trading days prior to the closing of the Subsequent Financing, the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser a written notice of its intention to effect a Subsequent Financing (“Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice shall ask such Purchaser if it wants to review the details of such financing (such additional notice, a “Subsequent Financing Notice”). Upon the request of a Purchaser, and only upon a request by such Purchaser made within one trading day following the receipt by the Purchaser of the Pre-Notice, for a Subsequent Financing Notice, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1) trading day after such request, deliver a Subsequent Financing Notice to such Purchaser. The Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of proceeds intended to be raised thereunder and the person or persons through or with whom such Subsequent Financing is proposed to be effected and shall include a term sheet or similar document relating thereto as an attachment.
6.13.3 Any Purchaser desiring to participate in such Subsequent Financing must provide written notice to the Company by not later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the 5th trading day after all of the Purchasers have received the Pre-Notice that the Purchaser is willing to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the amount of the Purchaser’s participation, and that the Purchaser has such funds ready, willing, and available for investment on the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice. If the Company receives no notice from a Purchaser as of such 5th trading day, such Purchaser shall be deemed to have notified the Company that it does not elect to participate.
6.13.4 If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the 5th trading day after all of the Purchasers have received the Pre-Notice, notifications by the Purchasers of their willingness to participate in the Subsequent Financing (or to cause their designees to participate) is, in the aggregate, less than the total amount of the Subsequent Financing, then the Company may affect the remaining portion of such Subsequent Financing on the terms and with the persons set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice.
6.13.5 If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the 5th trading day after all of the Purchasers have received the Pre-Notice, the Company receives responses to a Subsequent Financing Notice from Purchasers seeking to purchase more than the aggregate amount of the Participation Maximum, each such Purchaser shall have the right to purchase its Pro Rata Portion (as defined below) of the Participation Maximum. “Pro Rata Portion” means the ratio of (x) the Units purchased on the Closing Date by a Purchaser participating under this Section 6.13 and (y) the sum of the aggregate Units purchased by all Purchasers participating under this Section 6.13.
6.13.6 The Company must provide the Purchasers with a second Subsequent Financing Notice, and the Purchasers will again have the right of participation set forth above in this Section 6.13, if the Subsequent Financing subject to the initial Subsequent Financing Notice is not consummated for any reason on the terms set forth in such Subsequent Financing Notice within 30 trading days after the date of the initial Subsequent Financing Notice.
6.13.7 Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 6.13 shall not apply in respect of issuances in connection with (i) an Exempt Issuance (as defined below); (ii) an underwritten public offering pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act; (iii) a joint venture or acquisition of another entity by the Company, whether by purchase of stock, merger, consolidation, purchase of all or substantially all of the assets of such entity or otherwise; (iv) services rendered to or equipment leases of the Company.
