Delivery of Unlegended Shares (a) Within seven business days (such seventh business day being the “Unlegended Shares Delivery Date”) after the business day on which the Company has received (i) a notice that Shares or Warrant Shares, or any other Common Stock held by a Subscriber have been sold pursuant to a registration statement, if any, or Rule 144, (ii) a representation that the prospectus delivery requirements, or the requirements of Rule 144, as applicable and if required, have been satisfied, (iii) the original share certificates representing the shares of Common Stock that have been sold, and (iv) in the case of sales under Rule 144, customary representation letters of the Subscriber and/or a Subscriber’s broker regarding compliance with the requirements of Rule 144, the Company at its expense, (y) shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver to its transfer agent (with copies to Subscriber) an appropriate instruction and opinion of such counsel, directing the delivery of shares of Common Stock without any legends including the legend set forth in Section 4(i) above (the “Unlegended Shares”); and (z) cause the transmission of the certificates representing the Unlegended Shares together with a legended certificate representing the balance of the submitted certificate, if any, to the Subscriber at the address specified in the notice of sale, via express courier, by electronic transfer or otherwise on or before the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date. In the event that the Shares are sold in a manner that complies with an exemption from registration, the Company will promptly instruct its counsel to issue to the Company’s transfer agent an opinion permitting removal of the legend indefinitely if pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1).
(b) In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Unlegended Shares, upon request of a Subscriber, so long as the certificates therefor do not bear a legend and the Subscriber is not obligated to return such certificate for the placement of a legend thereon, the Company will cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Unlegended Shares by crediting the account of Subscriber’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system, if such transfer agent participates in such DWAC system. Such delivery must be made on or before the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date.
(c) The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 11 hereof later than the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date could result in economic loss to a Subscriber. As compensation to a Subscriber for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payment fees (as liquidated damages and not as a penalty) to the Subscriber for late delivery of Unlegended Shares in the amount of $100 per business day after the Delivery Date for each $10,000 of purchase price of the Unlegended Shares subject to the delivery default. In the event damages are payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence, then the Subscriber may elect to receive liquidated damages under this Section 11.1(c) or Section 12(g) below. If during any 360 day period, the Company fails to deliver Unlegended Shares as required by this Section 11.1 for an aggregate of 30 days, then each Subscriber or assignee holding Securities subject to such default may, at its option, require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Shares and Warrant Shares subject to such default at a price per share equal to the greater of (i) 120%, or (ii) a fraction in which the numerator is the highest closing price of the Common Stock during the aforedescribed 30 day period and the denominator of which is the purchase price of the Shares or exercise price of such Warrant Shares during such 30 day period, multiplied by the purchase price of the Shares or exercise price of such Warrant Shares (“Unlegended Redemption Amount”). The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand.
(d) In addition to any other rights available to a Subscriber, if the Company fails to deliver to a Subscriber Unlegended Shares as required pursuant to this Agreement, within three business days after the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date and the Subscriber or a broker on the Subscriber’s behalf, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of common stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Subscriber of the shares of Common Stock which the Subscriber was entitled to receive from the Company (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Subscriber (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the Subscriber) the amount by which (A) the Subscriber'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 delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares together with interest thereon at a rate of 15% per annum accruing until such amount and any accrued interest thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty). For example, if a Subscriber purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to $10,000 of purchase price of shares of Common Stock delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares, the Company shall be required to pay the Subscriber $1,000, plus interest. The Subscriber shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Subscriber in respect of the Buy-In.
(e) In the event a Subscriber shall request delivery of Unlegended Shares as described in Section 11.1 or Warrant Shares upon exercise of Warrants and the Company is required to deliver such Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 11.1 or the Warrant Shares pursuant to the Warrant, the Company may not refuse to deliver Unlegended Shares or Warrant Shares based on any claim that such Subscriber or any one associated or affiliated with such Subscriber has been engaged in any violation of law, or for any other reason, unless, an injunction or temporary restraining order from a court, on notice, restraining and or enjoining delivery of such Unlegended Shares or exercise of all or part of said Warrant shall have been sought and obtained by the Company or at the Company’s request or with the Company’s assistance, and the Company has posted a surety bond for the benefit of such Subscriber in the amount of 120% of the amount of the aggregate purchase price of the Shares and Warrant Shares which are subject to the injunction or temporary restraining order, which bond shall remain in effect until the final unappealable disposition of the litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Subscriber to the extent Subscriber obtains judgment in Subscriber’s favor.
