(c) Since January 1, 2013, the Company has been and is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable listing and corporate governance rules and regulations of NASDAQ.

Section 3.11. Financial Statements.

(a) Each of the consolidated financial statements (including any related notes) contained or incorporated in the Company SEC Reports: (a) was prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the period indicated therein (except as may be indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto and except that the unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP), and (b) fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the respective dates thereof and the consolidated results of operations, cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the respective periods covered thereby in accordance with GAAP (subject, in the case of any unaudited financial statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments). No Group Company has any liabilities or obligations of any nature (absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise), except for liabilities or obligations (i) reflected or reserved for in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2018 that is included in the Company SEC Reports, (ii) incurred after June 30, 2018 in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, and (iii) that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) The Company and its Subsidiaries have established and maintained a system of internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act) sufficient to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting and the preparation of Company financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. The Company has disclosed, based on its most recent evaluation of internal controls prior to the date hereof, to the Company’s auditors and audit committee (i) any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information and (ii) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in internal controls.

Section 3.12. Taxes. All material Tax Returns of the Group Companies have been timely filed in accordance with applicable Laws and all such Tax Returns are true, correct, and complete in all material respects. All material Taxes (whether or not shown on a Tax Return) of the Group Companies have been timely paid. Each of the Group Companies has timely paid or withheld all material Taxes required to be paid or withheld with respect to its employees, independent contractors, creditors and other third parties and timely paid over such Taxes to the appropriate Governmental Authority. None of the Group Companies has executed any outstanding waiver of any statute of limitations or outstanding extension of the period, for the assessment or collection of any material Tax. To the Knowledge of the Company, no audit or Action of, or with respect to, any material Tax Return or material Taxes of any Group Company is currently in progress or threatened. No deficiency for any material amount of Tax has been asserted or assessed by a Governmental Authority against the Group Companies that has not been satisfied by payment, settled or withdrawn. All preferential tax treatments granted to the Group Companies have been properly approved by or filed with the competent Governmental Authorities in accordance with applicable Laws. No written claim has been made by a Governmental Authority in any jurisdiction where any Group Company has not filed Tax Return that such Person is or may be subject to Tax or any filing requirement related to Tax in that jurisdiction. None of the Group Companies is a party to or bound by, or has any obligation under, any Tax allocation agreement, Tax indemnity agreement, Tax sharing agreement or similar contract or arrangement to indemnify any other Person with respect to Taxes that will be in effect after the Closing. The charges, accruals and reserves for Taxes with respect to the Group Companies reflected on the books and records of the Group Companies are adequate to cover material Tax liabilities accruing through the end of the last period for which the Group Companies ordinarily record items on their respective books. Since the end of the last period for which the Group Companies ordinarily record items on their respective books, none of the Group Companies has engaged in any transaction, or taken any action that would materially impact any Tax asset or Tax liability of the Group Companies.

Section 3.13. No Material Adverse Effect. Since June 30, 2018 to the date of this Agreement, (a) the Group Companies have conducted their respective businesses in all material respects in the ordinary course consistent with prior practice, and (b) there has not been any event, development or circumstance that would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(a) any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company under this Agreement; or

(b) any violation or nonperformance of any covenant or agreement of the Company under this Agreement.

Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived prior to Closing if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each Party to this Agreement or, in the case of a waiver, by each Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

Section 9.05. Taxes and Expenses. Each Party shall pay all of its own fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or agree expressly among the Parties, each Party shall be solely responsible for all Taxes accruing to such Party arising from this Agreement or the Transactions under applicable Laws.

The number of arbitrators shall be three (3). In the event that there are more than two parties to an arbitration, one arbitrator shall be appointed by the Investor and one arbitrator shall be appointed by the Company.

Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Company and the Investor shall negotiate together in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Company and the Investor as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the Transactions are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 9.11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by electronic transmission in PDF format or by facsimile transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the Parties in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 9.12. Specific Performance. The Parties acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur, no adequate remedy at law would exist and damages would be difficult to determine if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms. Accordingly, in addition to any other right or remedy to which a Party may be entitled, at law or in equity, it shall be entitled to seek enforcement of any provision of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance and to seek temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of any of the provisions of this Agreement, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy and without the necessity of posting any bond or other undertaking. The Parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific performance is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to applicable Law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for any such breach.
