(c)           The Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b) hereof): (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144, (iii) if such Conversion Shares 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 Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions, or (iv) 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). Upon request of the Purchaser, the Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly after the events described in clauses (i)-(iv) in the immediately preceding sentence if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder; provided that the opinion of counsel delivered in connection with clause (i) may contain provisions that such opinion may be withdrawn at any time by counsel upon any applicable registration statement no longer being effective and may be issued in reliance upon the Company undertaking in writing to such counsel to immediately place stop transfer orders on such securities if the applicable registration statement is no longer effective and foregoing clauses (iii) or (iv) are not then applicable. If all or any Notes (or Preferred Shares) are converted or Warrants exercised at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, or if such Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares may be sold under Rule 144 and the Company is then in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144, or if the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares may be sold 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 Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or if such legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission), then such Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares shall be issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that following such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1(c), it will, no later than three Trading Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Transfer Agent of the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend (such third Trading Day, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable, that are 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 4. Conversion Shares or 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.

(d)           So long as providing the certificate without the legend is allowed under applicable securities laws, 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, for each $1,000 of Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date such Securities are submitted to the Transfer Agent) delivered for removal of the restrictive legend and subject to Section 4.1(c), $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 (5^th) Trading Day immediately 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.

4.2           Acknowledgment of Dilution. The Company acknowledges that the issuance of the Securities may result in dilution of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, which dilution may be substantial under certain market conditions. The Company further acknowledges that its obligations under the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, its obligation to issue the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents, are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim, delay or reduction, regardless of the effect of any such dilution or any claim the Company may have against any Purchaser and regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership of the other stockholders of the Company.

4.3           Furnishing of Information; Public Information. From and after the date on which the Company completes the IPO until the date that no Purchasers own any Securities, the Company agrees to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company pursuant to the Exchange Act even if the Company is not then subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.

4.4           Integration. The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market such that it would require shareholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless shareholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.

4.5           Conversion and Exercise Procedures. The form of Notice of Conversion included in the Notes (or in the alternative, the delivery of a notice of conversion with respect to any Preferred Shares) and the form of Notice of Exercise included in the Warrants set forth the totality of the procedures required of the Purchasers in order to convert the Notes (or Preferred Shares) or exercise the Warrants (except, in the case of the Warrants, for the making of any required payments by the holder thereof to the Company). Without limiting the preceding sentences, no ink-original Offering Notice Response, Notice of Conversion or Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Conversion form or Notice of Exercise form be required in order to convert the Notes (or any Preferred Shares) or exercise the Warrants. No additional legal opinion, other information or instructions shall be required of the Purchasers to convert their Notes (or Preferred Shares) or exercise their Warrants. The Company shall honor conversions of the Notes (or Preferred Shares) and exercises of the Warrants and shall deliver Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable, in accordance with the terms, conditions and time periods set forth in the Transaction Documents.

4.6           Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company and each Purchaser shall consult with each other in issuing any press releases with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue any such press release nor otherwise make any such public statement without the prior consent of the Company, with respect to any press release of any Purchaser, or without the prior consent of each Purchaser, with respect to any press release of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, except if such disclosure is required by law, in which case the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement or communication. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall be permitted to make disclosures of the transactions contemplated hereby in any filing with the Commission as required by the rules and regulations thereof and as otherwise required by law, including any amendment to the Registration Statement and with the NYSE in connection with the Company’s application to have its Common Stock and certain warrants listed thereon in connection with the IPO; provided, however, that the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Purchaser, or include the name of any Purchaser, in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser, except: (a) as required by federal securities law in connection with the filing of final Transaction Documents with the Commission and (b) to the extent such disclosure is required by law or Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the Purchasers with prior notice of such disclosure permitted under this clause (b).

4.7           Shareholder Rights Plan. No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or, with the consent of the Company, any other Person, that any Purchaser is an “Acquiring Person” under any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or similar anti-takeover plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company, or that any Purchaser could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, by virtue of receiving Securities under the Transaction Documents or under any other agreement between the Company and the Purchasers.

4.8           Non-Public Information. Following the IPO, the Company shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates and agents, not to, provide any Purchaser with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from and after the date hereof without the express prior written consent of such Purchaser. If following the IPO a Purchaser has, or believes it has, received any such material, nonpublic information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates or agents, it may provide the Company with written notice thereof. The Company shall, within one (1) Trading Day of receipt of such notice, make public disclosure of such material, nonpublic information. In the event of a breach of the foregoing covenant by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates and agents, in addition to any other remedy provided herein or in the Transaction Documents, a Purchaser shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of such material, nonpublic information without the prior approval by the Company, its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates or agents. No Purchaser shall have any liability to the Company, its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, stockholders or agents for any such disclosure. To the extent that, following the IPO, the Company delivers any material, nonpublic information to a Purchaser without such Purchaser’s consent, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that such Purchaser shall not have any duty of confidentiality to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates or agent with respect to, or a duty to the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates or agent not to trade on the basis of, such material, nonpublic information.

4.9           Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the proceeds from this offering as cash collateral for letters of credit delivered as security deposits in connection with the leases of the Behome Property and the Tillary Property and for general corporate and working capital purposes.

4.10         Indemnification of Purchasers. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.10, the Company will indemnify and hold each Purchaser and its directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees and agents (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), each Person who controls such Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, shareholders, agents, members, partners or employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling persons (each, a “Purchaser Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation that any such Purchaser Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to (a) any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents or (b) any action instituted against the Purchaser Parties in any capacity, or any of them or their respective Affiliates, by any stockholder of the Company who is not an Affiliate of such Purchaser Party, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (unless such action is based upon a breach of such Purchaser Party’s representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings such Purchaser Party may have with any such stockholder or any violations by such Purchaser Party of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by such Purchaser Party which constitutes fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance). If any action shall be brought against any Purchaser Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Purchaser Party shall promptly notify the Company in writing, and the Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser Party. Any Purchaser Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Purchaser Party except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of counsel, a material conflict on any material issue between the position of the Company and the position of such Purchaser Party, in which case the Company shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel. The Company will not be liable to any Purchaser Party under this Agreement (y) for any settlement by a Purchaser Party effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (z) to the extent, but only to the extent, that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to any Purchaser Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Purchaser Party in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents. The indemnification required by this Section 4.10 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or are incurred. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to any cause of action or similar right of any Purchaser Party against the Company or others and any liabilities the Company may be subject to pursuant to law.

4.11           Reservation and Listing of Securities.

(a)           The Company shall maintain a reserve from its duly authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Transaction Documents in such amount as equals the Required Minimum.

(b)           If, on any date, the number of authorized but unissued (and otherwise unreserved) shares of Common Stock is less than (i) the Required Minimum on such date, minus (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock previously issued pursuant to the Transaction Documents, then the Board of Directors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to amend the Company’s certificate or articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to at least the Required Minimum at such time (minus the number of shares of Common Stock previously issued pursuant to the Transaction Documents), as soon as possible and in any event not later than the 90^th day after such date, provided that the Company will not be required at any time to authorize a number of shares of Common Stock greater than the maximum remaining number of shares of Common Stock that could possibly be issued after such time pursuant to the Transaction Documents.

4.12         Sale or Transfer of Assets. So long as the Notes or any Preferred Shares remain outstanding, neither the Company, nor any Subsidiary of the Company, shall, without each Purchaser’s written consent, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of or transfer any significant portion of its assets outside the ordinary course of business; provided, however, that for purposes of clarity, it is understood that the Company enters, trades, modifies and terminates early real property leases from time to time as part of its operations in the ordinary course of business. Any consent to the disposition of any assets may be conditioned on a specified use of the proceeds of disposition. In addition, so long as the Notes or any Preferred Shares remain outstanding, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall sell or transfer or otherwise dispose of any assets to any Subsidiary that is not a guarantor under, and a party to, the Security Agreement.

4.13         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 this Agreement unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to this Agreement. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Purchaser by the Company and negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and is intended for the Company to treat the Purchasers as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise.

4.14         Certain Transactions and Confidentiality. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that neither it, nor any Affiliate acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it, will from the date of the IPO until the date that the Notes or any Preferred Shares are no longer outstanding, execute any Short Sales of the Common Stock (provided that this provision shall not prohibit any sales made where a corresponding Notice of Conversion or Notice of Exercise is tendered to the Company and the shares received upon such conversion or exercise are used to close out such sale) (a “Prohibited Short Sale”). Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company in the IPO, such Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of the existence and terms of this transaction and the information included in the Transaction Documents and the Disclosure Schedules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) no Purchaser makes any representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage in effecting transactions in any securities of the Company after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced by the Company is a press release or in the registration statement for the IPO, (ii) except for a Prohibited Short Sale, following the IPO, no Purchaser shall be restricted or prohibited from effecting any transactions in any securities of the Company in accordance with applicable securities laws, and (iii) no Purchaser shall have any duty of confidentiality to the Company or its Subsidiaries after the IPO. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the covenant set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Securities covered by this Agreement.

4.15         Form D; Blue Sky Filings. The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof, promptly upon request of any 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 Purchasers 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.

4.16         Piggy-Back Registrations. If at any time while any of the Notes or the Warrants or any Preferred Shares remain outstanding there is not an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering all of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares (the “Registrable Securities”) and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall send to each Purchaser then holding Notes, Preferred Shares or Warrants written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen calendar days after receipt of such notice, any such Purchaser shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities such Purchaser requests to be registered, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of registration rights and subject to the applicable terms of such registration rights. The rights provided in this Section shall not apply with respect to any registration statement filed in connection with any follow-on primary offering by the Company so long as no equity securities will be offered under such registration statement for the account of others. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a security shall cease to be a Registrable Security for purposes of this Agreement from and after such time as the Purchasers may resell such security without volume restrictions under Rule 144, as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed and acceptable to the Company’s transfer agent and the affected Purchaser.

4.17         Liens. So long as any of the Notes remain outstanding, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of each Purchaser, incur, create, assume or suffer to exist any Lien on any of its property or assets, whether now owned or hereinafter acquired, except for (a) Liens for taxes not yet due or which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings; (b) non-consensual Liens arising by operation of law, arising in the ordinary course of business, and for amounts which are not overdue for a period of more than 30 days or that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings; (c) Liens on property securing indebtedness incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to provide funds for all or a portion of the cost of acquiring, leasing, constructing, altering, expanding, improving or repairing such property; (d) Liens securing purchase money Indebtedness incurred in connection with the acquisition of capital assets by the Company or any Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business; (e) Liens securing the Existing Notes; or (f) Liens listed on Schedule 4.17 of the Disclosure Schedules.

4.18         Other Indebtedness. Except with respect to the Existing Notes or as set forth on Schedule 4.18, so long as any of the Notes remain outstanding, the Company shall not (directly or indirectly through any Subsidiary or affiliate) incur or suffer to exist or guarantee any Indebtedness that is senior to or pari passu with (in priority of payment and performance) the Company's obligations hereunder or under the Notes, or that matures prior to the maturity date of the Notes. As used herein, the term "Indebtedness" means (a) all indebtedness of the Company for borrowed money or for the deferred purchase price of property or services, including any type of letters of credit, but not including deferred purchase price obligations in place as of the Closing Date or obligations to trade creditors incurred in the ordinary course of business, (b) all obligations of the Borrower evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures or other similar instruments, (c) purchase money indebtedness hereafter incurred by the Company to finance the purchase of fixed or capital assets, including all capital lease obligations of the Company which do not exceed the purchase price of the assets funded, (d) all guarantee obligations of the Company in respect of obligations of the kind referred to in clauses (a) through (c) above that the Company would not be permitted to incur or enter into, and (e) all obligations of the kind referred to in clauses (a) through (d) above that the Company is not permitted to incur or enter into that are secured and/or unsecured by (or for which the holder of such obligation has an existing right, contingent or otherwise, to be secured and/or unsecured by) any Lien on property (including accounts and contract rights) owned by the Company, whether or not the Company has assumed or become liable for the payment of such obligation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to have outstanding at any time up to $1.5 million aggregate principal amount of other promissory notes; provided that such promissory notes are on terms no more favorable to the holders thereof as those afforded to the Purchasers in the Notes and that such promissory notes shall be subordinate in right of repayment to the Notes.

4.19         Distributions on Capital Stock. So long as any of the Notes or Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Company shall not without each Purchaser’s written consent, (a) pay, declare or set apart for such payment, any dividend or other distribution (whether in cash, property or other securities) on shares of capital stock other than dividends on shares of Common Stock solely in the form of additional shares of Common Stock or (b) directly or indirectly or through any Subsidiary make any other payment or distribution in respect of its capital stock.

4.20         Restriction on Stock Repurchases and Debt Repayments. So long as any of the Notes or any Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Company shall not, without each Purchaser’s prior written consent, (a) redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire (whether for cash or in exchange for property or other securities or otherwise) in any one transaction or series of related transactions any shares of capital stock of the Company (other than the Preferred Shares) or any warrants, rights or options to purchase or acquire any such shares, or (b) repay any pari passu or subordinated indebtedness of the Company or repay any indebtedness to the Company’s officers, directors or other Affiliates, except for the repayment of the Existing Notes and the indebtedness disclosed under the heading “Use of Proceeds” in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall be permitted to effect the following without the consent of the Purchasers: (i) dividends or other distributions payable on the Common Stock solely in the form of additional shares of Common Stock and (ii) repurchases of stock from former employees, officers, directors, consultants or other persons who performed services for the Company or any subsidiary in connection with the cessation of such employment or service at no greater than the original purchase price thereof.

4.21         Advances and Loans; Affiliate Transactions. So long as any of the Notes or any Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Company shall not, without each Purchaser’s written consent, lend money, give credit, or make advances to any person, firm, joint venture or corporation, including, without limitation, officers, directors, employees, subsidiaries and affiliates of the Company, except loans, credits or advances (a) in existence or committed on the Closing Date and which the Company has informed each Purchaser in writing prior to the Closing Date, (b) in regard to transactions with unaffiliated third parties, made in the ordinary course of business, or (c) in regard to transactions with unaffiliated third parties, not in excess of $50,000. So long as any of the Notes or any Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Company shall not, without each Purchaser’s written consent, enter into any transaction with Affiliates, except transactions with affiliates made in the ordinary course of business; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 4.21 shall prohibit the Company from entering into any transaction with an Affiliate for the purpose of the Affiliate making a loan or advance to the Company.

4.22         Proceeds of IPO, Other Equity or Debt Issuances or Asset Sales.

(a)           The Company agrees, upon the written request of one or more Purchasers delivered to the Company no later than seven (7) Business Days following the consummation of the IPO, to repay the Notes and Existing Notes held by such Purchasers; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to repay an aggregate principal amount of Notes or Existing Notes pursuant to this Section 4.22(a) that is more than the greater of (i) $2,500,000, or (ii) an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate Subscription Amount paid by such Purchasers under this Agreement and the Existing SPA. Any such repayment shall be made on a pro rata basis if Purchasers have requested the repayment of a greater aggregate principal amount of Notes and Existing Notes. Any such repayment shall be at a repayment price equal to one hundred fifteen percent (115%) of the principal amount to be repaid, together with all accrued and unpaid interest on such principal amount, and shall be made within three (3) Business Days of the date of delivery to the Company of such written request, from the net proceeds of the IPO, prior to applying the net proceeds of the IPO for any other purposes (other than those specifically described under the heading “Use of Proceeds” in the Registration Statement).

(b)           The Company agrees to provide to the Purchasers at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice of any proposed (i) sales of debt or equity securities other than the IPO, and (ii) sales of assets outside the ordinary course of business (each, a “Funding Transaction”) and, upon the written request of one or more Purchasers delivered to the Company no later than three (3) Business Days following receipt of any such notice, to repay the principal amount of the Notes held by such Purchaser(s), on a pro rata basis if Purchasers have requested the repayment of an aggregate principal amount of Notes that is more than the net proceeds of such Funding Transaction, at a repayment price equal to one hundred fifteen percent (115%) of the principal amount to be repaid, together with all accrued and unpaid interest on such principal amount, within three (3) Business Days of the closing of such Funding Transaction, from the net proceeds of the Funding Transaction, prior to applying the net proceeds of the Funding Transaction for any other purposes.

(c)           The Purchasers hereby waive any notice of such prepayment pursuant to this Section 4.22 as would otherwise be required by Section 2(e) of the Notes or the Existing Notes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein in this Section 4.22, nothing in this Section 4.22 shall limit the ability of the Company to prepay the Notes or Existing Notes at any time in accordance with the terms thereof.

4.23         Additional Securities Issuances. So long as any of the Notes or Preferred Shares remain outstanding, without the prior written consent of the Purchasers, the Company shall not issue any indebtedness for money borrowed that has a variable conversion rate or enter into any transaction for merchant cash advances.

4.24         Participation in Future Financing.

(a)           From the date hereof until the date that is the later of (i) the date on which no Notes or Preferred Shares are outstanding and (ii) the 18-month anniversary of the Closing Date, upon any issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents for cash consideration, indebtedness or a combination of units thereof (a “Subsequent Financing”), each Purchaser shall have the right to participate in such Subsequent Financing in an amount up to an amount equal to such Purchaser’s Subscription Amount, or if the amount of the Subsequent Financing is less than the aggregate Subscription Amounts of all of the Purchasers, such Purchaser’s Pro Rata Portion (such amount, the “Participation Maximum”), on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the Subsequent Financing.

(b)           At least three (3) 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, 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.

(c)           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 second (2^nd) Trading Day after all of the Purchasers have received the Pre-Notice that such Purchaser is willing to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the amount of such Purchaser’s participation, and representing and warranting that such 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 such notice from a Purchaser as of such second (2^nd) Trading Day, such Purchaser shall be deemed to have notified the Company that it does not elect to participate.

(d)           If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the second (2^nd) 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 consummate the remaining portion of such Subsequent Financing on the terms and with the Persons set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice.

(e)           If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the second (2^nd) 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 Subscription Amount of Securities purchased by a Purchaser participating under this Section 4.24 and (y) the sum of the aggregate Subscription Amounts of Securities purchased by all Purchasers participating under this Section 4.24.

(f)           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 4.24, 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 thirty (30) Trading Days after the date of the initial Subsequent Financing Notice.

(g)           The Company and each Purchaser agree that if any Purchaser elects to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the transaction documents related to the Subsequent Financing shall not include any term or provision whereby such Purchaser shall be required to agree to any restrictions on trading as to any of the Securities purchased hereunder or be required to consent to any amendment to or termination of, or grant any waiver, release or the like under or in connection with, this Agreement, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser.

(h)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.24 and unless otherwise agreed to by such Purchaser, the Company shall either confirm in writing to such Purchaser that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the securities in the Subsequent Financing, in either case in such a manner such that such Purchaser will not be in possession of any material, non-public information, by the tenth (10th) Business Day following delivery of the Subsequent Financing Notice. If by such tenth (10th) Business Day, no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by such Purchaser, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and such Purchaser shall not be deemed to be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(i)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.24 shall not apply in respect of an Exempt Issuance.

4.25         Lock-Up. In connection with the IPO, if requested by the Company and the representative of the underwriters, each Purchaser shall enter into a supplemental agreement to not transfer any shares of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company held by such Purchaser (other than those included in the registration) during the ninety (90) day period (or such lesser period as may be determined by the underwriter) following the effective date of the registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act relating to the IPO; provided that all directors, officers and holders of the Company’s outstanding securities issued prior to the IPO enter into agreements providing for similar restrictions on sales and that any waiver or termination of the prohibitions set forth in this Section 4.25 by the Company or any underwriter shall apply to each Purchaser. The obligations described in this Section 4.25 shall not apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-3 or Form S-8 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely to a transaction pursuant to Rule 145 under the Securities Act on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to each Purchaser’s shares of Common Stock (or other securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of such ninety (90) day or lesser period.

4.26         Post Lock-Up Period Adjustment. Within two Business Days following the last day of the Lock-Up Period, the Company shall prepare and deliver to each Purchaser an officer’s certificate (the “Pricing Certificate”) certified by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company that sets forth the average VWAP of the Common Stock for the last three Trading Days of the Lock-Up Period (the “Closing Lock-up Price”), which certificate shall set forth the basis for the Company’s calculation of the Closing Lock-up Price. If the Closing Lock-up Price is less than an amount equal to the price at which the Common Stock (or units of Common Stock and warrants if such units are sold in the IPO) is sold in the IPO, each Purchaser shall have the right, exercisable within five (5) Business Days of date of its receipt of the Pricing Certificate, to request that the Company prepay pursuant to Section 2(d) of the Notes, and the Company shall thereafter prepay pursuant to such Section 2(d) of the Notes, an amount equal to up to fifty percent (50%) of the original principal amount of the Notes held by such Purchaser, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in six (6) equal monthly installments commencing on the tenth (10^th) Business Day following the last day of the Lock-Up Period and on each monthly anniversary of such date.

4.27         Right of First Refusal. If from the date hereof until the date that is the later of (i) the date on which no Notes or Preferred Shares are outstanding and (ii) the 18-month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company or any Subsidiary has a bona fide offer of capital or financing from any third party that the Company or Subsidiary intends to act upon, then the Company must first offer such opportunity to the Purchasers to provide such capital or financing to the Company or Subsidiary on the same terms as each respective third party’s terms. Should the Purchasers be unwilling or unable to provide such capital or financing to the Company within ten (10) Trading Days from the Purchasers’ receipt of written notice of the offer (the “Offer Notice”) from the Company, then the Company or Subsidiary may, subject to Section 4.24, obtain such capital or financing from that respective third party upon the exact same terms and conditions offered by the Company to the Purchaser, which transaction must be completed within sixty (60) days after the date of the Offer Notice. If the Company does not receive the capital or financing from the respective 3^rd party within sixty (60) days after the date of the respective Offer Notice, then the Company must again offer the capital or financing opportunity to the Purchasers as described above, and the process detailed above shall be repeated.

4.28           Mandatory Exchange of Notes. Following the consummation of the IPO and the listing of the Common Stock on any of the Nasdaq or New York stock exchanges, each Purchaser shall, upon the written request of the Company, exchange such Purchaser’s Notes (other than any Notes that are to be paid pursuant to Section 4.22(a) or converted to Common Stock) for a class of the Company’s convertible preferred stock having terms as set forth in a Certificate of Designation pursuant to the terms of an exchange agreement that has representations and warranties substantially identical to the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 3.1 and agreements of the Company and the Purchasers applicable to the shares of preferred stock and such parties as are set forth in this Article IV. Any such exchange shall be effected pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and in connection with such exchange the Company shall acknowledge that the holding period of the shares of preferred stock (and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such shares) shall tack back to the date the Notes were originally issued by the Company to the Purchasers (or their assignor) and shall covenants not to take any position to the contrary.

ARTICLE V.

REVENUE SHARE

5.1           Payment of Hotel Revenue Share.

(a)           With respect each calendar quarter during the Original Lease Term (as defined below) of a Property (each, a “Revenue Share Period”), commencing with the first full calendar quarter following the date on which the Company or an Affiliate of the Company originally enters into a lease or sublease for such Property (a copy of which shall be provided to the Purchasers within ten (10) days of the date of execution thereof by the Company), the Company shall, with respect to each Property leased or subleased by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company during such Revenue Share Period, pay to each Purchaser such Purchaser’s pro rata percentage (as set forth on the signature page hereto executed by such Purchaser) of the Applicable Percentage (as defined below) of the Quarterly Net Rental Revenues (as defined below) received by the Company or any Affiliate thereof with respect to such Property during such Revenue Share Period. Within ten (10) days of the last Business Day of each Revenue Share Period that ends prior to the consummation of the IPO, or within ten (10) days of the date of the filing by the Company of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for each Revenue Share Period that ends after consummation of the IPO, the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser an officer’s certificate certified by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company (a “Revenue Share Certificate”) that sets forth with respect to each Property (i) the Quarterly Net Rental Revenues received by the Company and each Affiliate of the Company in respect of such Property during the immediately preceding Revenue Share Period, (ii) the amount that is equal to the Applicable Percentage of the Quarterly Net Rental Revenues in respect of such Property (such amount, the “Revenue Share”) for such immediately preceding Revenue Share Period, and (iii) such Purchaser’s pro rata percentage of such Revenue Share (the “Payment Amount”), which certificate shall set forth, with respect to each Property in respect of which the Company or an Affiliate of the Company received revenues, the basis for the Company’s calculation of such Quarterly Net Rental Revenues, such Revenue Share and the Payment Amount and which certificate shall have annexed thereto copies of the bank statements covering such immediately preceding Revenue Share Period for each account of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company into which any revenues generated by a Property during such Revenue Share Period were deposited during such Revenue Share Period. The Company shall pay to each Purchaser such Purchaser’s Payment Amount for a Revenue Share Period for each Property within two (2) Business Days of the date of delivery to such Purchaser of the applicable Revenue Share Certificate for such Revenue Share Period by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as such Purchaser shall have directed in writing. If the Company fails to pay any Payment Amount within five (5) Business Days of the date due hereunder, such Payment Amount shall be increased to an amount equal to 130% of such Payment Amount and such increased Payment Amount shall accrue interest daily from the date due until the date paid at a rate equal to 2.0% per month (24% per annum) calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day periods. For purposes of this Section 5.1, the term “Applicable Percentage” shall mean, (i) with respect to the Tillary Property, for each of the first twenty (20) Revenue Share Periods for such Property, ten percent (10%), and for each other Revenue Share Period, one percent (1%), and (ii) with respect to each other Property, for each of the first twenty (20) Revenue Share Periods for such Property, seven and one-half percent (7.5%), and for each other Revenue Share Period, one percent (1%), the term “Original Lease Term” shall mean, with respect to a Property, the term of the original lease of the Company or an Affiliate of the Company relating to such Property, including all extensions thereof, and the term “Quarterly Net Rental Revenues” shall mean, with respect to a Property and a Revenue Share Period, the gross rental revenues received by the Company and its Affiliates during such Revenue Share Period from the lease of accommodation units at such Property, as determined in accordance with GAAP, net of any lease refunds during such Revenue Share Period as so determined.

(b)           If the lease or sublease of the Company or any Affiliate of the Company with respect to any Property is terminated prior to the end of the Original Lease Term of such Property, or any Property is permanently closed for business prior to the end of the Original Lease Term of such Property, the Company shall, within thirty (30) days of such termination or closure, designate another hotel property of similar size and location that is reasonably acceptable to the Purchasers to be designated as a Property for purposes of this Agreement (each, a “Replacement Property”), and the provisions of Section 5.1(a) above and 5.1(c) below shall apply to such Replacement Property until the end of the Original Lease Term of the Property being replaced.

(c)           The obligations of the Company to pay the Payment Amounts and interest, if any, thereon pursuant to Section 5.1(a) shall be secured by the Security Agreement as set forth therein.

(d)           If the Closing for the second Tranche is effected pursuant to Section 2.1 and the Company or an Affiliate of the Company enters into a lease or sublease for the Tillary Property without the Purchasers electing to proceed with the Closing for the Third Tranche, the Purchasers shall have the right, exercisable within 180 days of the date on which the Company delivers to the Purchasers a copy of the Tillary lease or sublease, by written notice to the Company, to substitute the Tillary Property for the DC Property for the remainder of the Original Lease Term of the DC Property, in which event the Tillary Property shall become a Property for purposes of this Section 5.1 in lieu of the DC Property, commencing on the first day of the next Revenue Share Period for the DC Property.

(e)           The Company shall cause all leases or subleases with respect to a Property or Replacement Property to be in the name of CorpHousing RSL LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Leaseco”), and shall cause all revenues received with respect to each Property or Replacement Property to be deposited in a deposit account maintained in the name of Leaseco. The Company shall cause Leaseco to maintain ownership of each lease or sublease of a Property or Replacement Property and shall take all required action to ensure that Leaseco does not sell, assign or otherwise transfer any such lease or sublease without the prior written consent of each Purchaser. Leaseco shall have no commercial operations other than to hold and operate the leases and related operations for each Property or Replacement Property and to receive rental payments and other revenues relating to each Property and Replacement Property.

(f)           In addition to the Notes and Warrants that are issuable to the Purchasers pursuant to Section 2.1 in connection with the Closing of the first Tranche, effective at the Closing of the first Tranche, the Purchasers shall be deemed to have been issued a credit in the aggregate amount of $500,000 (the “Credit”), which can be applied by the Purchasers to obtain from the Company a Revenue Share with respect to any one of the next five hotel properties that are leased or subleased by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company after the date hereof (other than the Behome Property, the DC Property or the Tillary Property) in an amount equal to the Credit Percentage (as defined below) of the Applicable Percentage that would be payable to the Purchasers pursuant to Section 5.1(a) if such hotel property was a Property that had been financed by the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement. The Company shall forward to the Purchasers a complete copy of the lease or sublease entered into by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company within five (5) Business Days of the date such lease or sublease is executed and delivered by the parties thereto. The Purchasers may elect to apply the Credit with respect to any such hotel property by written notice to the Company within ten (10) Business Days of the date on which the Purchasers are furnished a copy of the lease or sublease for any such hotel property. If the Purchasers elect to apply the Credit with respect to any such hotel property, such hotel property shall be deemed to be a Property for all purposes of this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 5.1, the term “Credit Percentage” means, with respect to any such hotel property, a fraction, the numerator of which is $500,000 and the denominator is the amount of the letter of credit that was posted by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company as a security deposit for the rental payments under the applicable lease or sublease of such hotel property.

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

6.7           Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Purchaser (other than by merger).

6.8           No Third-Party 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, except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.10 and this Section 6.8.

6.9           Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in New Castle County, State of Delaware 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 any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an 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 Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.

If either party shall commence an action, suit or proceeding to enforce any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then, in addition to the obligations of the Company under Section 4.10, the prevailing party in such action, suit or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.

6.10         Survival. The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Securities for a period of twenty-four (24) months thereafter.

6.11         Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other party, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.

6.12         Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

6.13         Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights; provided, however, that in the case of a rescission of a conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants, the applicable Purchaser shall be required to return any shares of Common Stock subject to any such rescinded conversion notice or exercise notice concurrently with the restoration of such Purchaser’s right to acquire such shares pursuant to such Purchaser’s Notes or Warrants.

6.14         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 (in the case of mutilation), 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. The applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.

6.15           Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in the Transaction Documents and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

6.16         Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or a Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

6.17          Usury. To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Company hereby agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in connection with any claim, action or proceeding that may be brought by any Purchaser in order to enforce any right or remedy under any Transaction Document. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in any Transaction Document, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total liability of the Company under the Transaction Documents for payments in the nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized under applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), and, without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate of interest or default interest, or both of them, when aggregated with any other sums in the nature of interest that the Company may be obligated to pay under the Transaction Documents exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law and applicable to the Transaction Documents is increased or decreased by statute or any official governmental action subsequent to the date hereof, the new maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to the Transaction Documents from the effective date thereof forward, unless such application is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances whatsoever, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to any Purchaser with respect to indebtedness evidenced by the Transaction Documents, such excess shall be applied by such Purchaser to the unpaid principal balance of any such indebtedness or be refunded to the Company, the manner of handling such excess to be at such Purchaser’s election.

6.18         Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance or non-performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, 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 the Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in its review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by any of the Purchasers.

6.19         Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to pay any partial liquidated damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction Documents is a continuing obligation of the Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid partial liquidated damages and other amounts have been paid notwithstanding the fact that the instrument or security pursuant to which such partial liquidated damages or other amounts are due and payable shall have been canceled.

6.20         Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

6.21         Construction. The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments thereto. In addition, each and every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement.

6.22         WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY, THE PARTIES EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY JURY.
