PURCHASE AGREEMENT
EXHIBIT
99.2
This
PURCHASE AGREEMENT,
dated as of July 29, 2009 (this “Agreement”) is
entered into by and among Patient Safety Technologies, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (“Company”), and the
other persons whose names appear on the signature pages attached hereto (each an
“Investor”, and
collectively, the “Investors”).
RECITALS
1. Each
of the Investors is a holder of one or more warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase shares
of Common Stock of the Company (the “Warrant
Shares”). The Warrants are exercisable at various strike
prices that exceed the current trading price of the Company’s Common Stock (the
“Common
Stock”).
2. The
Investors wish to purchase from the Company, and the Company wishes to issue and
sell to such Investors, certain additional shares of Common Stock of the
Company.
3. In
connection with such sale of Common Stock, and in order to enhance the liquidity
of the Investors’ holdings and reduce the number of Warrants outstanding, the
Company and the Investors wish to cause the Warrants to be tendered to the
Company for cancellation, as partial consideration for the shares of Common
Stock to be purchased by Investors.

have or reasonably be expected to result in (i) a material adverse effect on the
legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, (ii) a material adverse
effect on the results of operations, assets, business, prospects or condition
(financial or otherwise) of the Company and the Subsidiary, taken as a whole, or

upon delivery will have been) duly executed by the Company and, when delivered

complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act

3. Representations
and Warranties of Investors. Each Investor, for that Investor alone,
represents and warrants to Company upon the acquisition of the Purchased Shares,
as follows:
(a) Binding Obligation. Such
Investor has full legal capacity, power and authority to execute and deliver
this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder. Each of this
Agreement executed by such Investor is a valid and binding obligation of the
Investor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws of general application relating to or
affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles
of equity. The execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement
and all other agreements contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by the
Investor.
(b) No Transfer or Assignment of
Securities or Claims. Such Investor has not sold, assigned,
transferred or exercised any of the Warrants issued to Investor, and has not
transferred or assigned any claim, right or interest associated
therewith.
(c) Investment Intent; Capacity to
Protect Purchased Shares. The Investor is
purchasing the Purchased Shares solely for its own account for investment and
not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution of the
Purchased Shares or any portion thereof, and not with any present intention of
selling, offering to sell or otherwise disposing of or distributing the
Purchased Shares or any portion thereof in any transaction other than a
transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act. The
Investor also represents that the entire legal and beneficial interest of the
Purchased Shares is being purchased, and will be held, for the Investor’s
account only, and neither in whole or in part for any other
person.
-5-
(d) Accredited Investor. The Investor is an “accredited
investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 under the Act.
(e) Information Concerning
Company. The Investor has heretofore discussed the Company’s
plans, operations and financial condition with the Company’s and the Company’s
officers and has heretofore received all such information as the Investor has
deemed necessary and appropriate to enable the Investor to evaluate the
financial risk inherent in making an investment in the Purchased Shares, and the
Investor has received satisfactory and complete information concerning the
business and financial condition of the Company in response to all inquiries in
respect thereof.
(f) Economic Risk. The Investor
realizes that the purchase of the Purchased Shares will be a highly speculative
investment and involves a high degree of risk, and the Investor is able, without
impairing the Investor’s financial condition, to hold the Purchased Shares for
an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete loss on its
investment.
(g) Risk Factor
Disclosure. Investor has reviewed the Risk Factor Disclosure
memorandum attached hereto as Exhibit A describing some of the
risks associated with an investment in the equity Purchased Shares of the
Company and the risks associated with the Company’s
business. Investor has further reviewed the Company’s SEC Reports,
including without limitation the additional risk factor disclosure contained
therein..
(h) Advice of Counsel and Tax
Advisors. The Investor has obtained, or has had the
opportunity to obtain, the advice of independent legal and tax counsel with
respect to this Agreement and all legal and tax matters relating hereto or
arising in connection herewith.
(i) Restricted
Securities. The Investor understands and acknowledges
that:
(i) The
Purchased Shares have not been registered under the Act in reliance upon a
specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things,
the bona fide nature of the Investors’ investment intent as expressed herein.
The Investor understands that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”), the
statutory basis for such exemption may be unavailable if the Investor’s
representations were predicated solely upon a present intention to hold the
Purchased Shares for the minimum capital gains period specified under tax
statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an increase or decrease in the
market price of the Purchased Shares, or for a period of one (1) year or any
other fixed period in the future; and
(ii) The
Purchased Shares must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently
registered under the Act or unless an exemption from such registration is
otherwise available. The Investor further acknowledges and
understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the Purchased
Shares. In addition, the Investor understands that any certificate or
certificates evidencing the Purchased Shares will be imprinted with a legend
which prohibits the transfer of the Purchased Shares unless they are registered
or such registration is not required in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to
the Company.

4. Miscellaneous.

(c) Survival. The
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made herein shall survive
the execution and delivery of this Agreement.
(d) Successors and Assigns. The
rights and obligations of Company and the Investors shall be binding upon and
benefit the successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of the
parties.

operation of law or otherwise, in whole or in part, by any party without the
prior written consent of both Company and of a Majority in

Agreement together with the other Transaction Documents constitute and contain
the entire agreement among Company and Investors and supersede any and all prior
agreements, negotiations, correspondence, understandings and communications
among the parties, whether written or oral, respecting the subject matter
hereof.

Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of
the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is
not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other
Person
Notices. All notices,
requests, demands, consents, instructions or other communications required or
permitted hereunder shall in writing and faxed, mailed or delivered to each

extent permitted by applicable law, hereby absolutely, unconditionally,
irrevocably and expressly waives forever trial by jury.
(j) Separability of Agreements;
Severability of this Agreement. Company’s agreement with each of the
Investors is a separate agreement and the sale of Purchased Shares to each of
the Investors is a separate sale. Unless otherwise expressly provided
herein, the rights of each Investor hereunder are several rights, not rights
jointly held with any of the other Investors. Any invalidity,
illegality or limitation on the enforceability of the Agreement or any part
thereof, by any Investor whether arising by reason of the law of the respective
Investor’s domicile or otherwise, shall in no way affect or impair the validity,
legality or enforceability of this Agreement with respect to other
Investors. If any provision of this Agreement shall be judicially
determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby.
