(k) The authorized capital stock of the Company and the shares thereof issued and outstanding as of February 28, 2010 are set forth on Schedule 3(k) attached
hereto. All of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock and any other outstanding security of the Company have been duly and validly authorized, and are fully paid and non-assessable. As of the date hereof, the Series A-2 Preferred Stock is the only Preferred Stock currently issued and outstanding. Except as set forth in this Agreement or on Schedule 3(k) attached hereto, as of the Closing Date,
no shares of Common Stock are entitled to preemptive rights and there are no registration rights or outstanding options, warrants, scrip, rights to subscribe to, call or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities or rights convertible into, any shares of capital stock of the Company. The Company is not a party to, and its executive officers have no knowledge of, any agreement restricting the voting or transfer of any shares of the capital stock of the Company. The
Company has furnished or made available to the Holders true and correct copies of the Company’s certificate of incorporation as in effect on the date hereof, and the Company’s bylaws as in effect on the date hereof.

to any applicable state and federal securities laws, the Company warrants that the Common Stock shall be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement.

Company with reasonable assurances that the Common Stock can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities acquired as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, the Company shall permit the transfer and promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates in such name and in such denominations as specified by the Holders and without any restrictive legend. The Company acknowledges
that a breach by it of its obligations under this Section 3(l) will cause irreparable harm to the Holders by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 3(l) will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or the Holders’ reasonable perception of a threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 3(l), that the Holders shall
be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
