(g) Certain
Trading Activities.
Other
than with respect to the transactions contemplated herein, since the time that
such Purchaser was first contacted by the Company, the Placement Agents or
any
other Person regarding the transactions contemplated hereby, neither the
Purchaser nor any Affiliate of such Purchaser which (x) had knowledge of the
transactions contemplated hereby, (y) has or shares discretion relating to

directly or indirectly, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant
to
any understanding with such Purchaser or Trading Affiliate, effected or agreed
to effect any transactions in the securities of the Company (including, without
limitation, any Short Sales involving the Company’s securities). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser and/or Trading Affiliate that is,
individually or collectively, a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby
separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser's or
Trading Affiliate’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 or Trading Affiliate’s assets, the representation
set forth above shall apply only with respect to the portion of assets managed
by the portfolio manager that have knowledge about the financing transaction
contemplated by this Agreement. Other than to other Persons party to this
Agreement, such Purchaser has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures
made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and
terms of this transaction).

Purchaser.
(i) Independent
Investment Decision.
Such
Purchaser has independently evaluated the merits of its decision to purchase
Securities and, if applicable, Adjustment Securities pursuant to the Transaction
Documents, and such Purchaser confirms that it has not relied on the advice
of
any other Purchaser’s business and/or legal counsel in making such decision.
Such Purchaser understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials
presented by or on behalf of the Company to the Purchaser in connection with
the
purchase of the Securities and the Adjustment Securities constitutes legal,
tax
or investment advice. Such Purchaser has consulted such legal, tax and
investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or
appropriate in connection with such purchase. Such Purchaser understands that
the Placement Agents have acted solely as the agent of the Company in this
placement of the Securities and the Adjustment Securities, and such Purchaser
has not relied on the business or legal advice of the Placement Agents or any
of
their agents, counsel or Affiliates in making its investment decision hereunder,
and confirms that none of such Persons has made any representations or
warranties to such Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated
by
the Transaction Documents.
(j) Reliance
on Exemptions.
Such
Purchaser understands that the Securities and, if applicable, the Adjustment
Securities are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions
from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities
laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of,
and
such Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements,
acknowledgements and understandings of such Purchaser set forth herein in order
to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such
Purchaser to acquire the Securities and, if applicable, the Adjustment
Securities.
(k) No
Governmental Review.
Such
Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any
other
government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation
or
endorsement of the Securities or the Adjustment Securities or the fairness
or
suitability of the investment in the Securities and the Adjustment Securities
nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering
of
the Securities and the Adjustment Securities.

The
Company acknowledges and agrees that no Purchaser has made or makes any
representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated
hereby other than those specifically set forth in this Section
3.2.
ARTICLE
IV.
OTHER
AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
4.1 (a) Compliance
with Laws.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IV, each Purchaser covenants
that the Securities and, if applicable, the Adjustment Securities may be
disposed of only pursuant to an effective registration statement under, and
in
compliance with the requirements of, the Securities Act, or pursuant to an
available exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, and in compliance with any applicable state
and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of the Securities
and, if applicable, the Adjustment Securities other than (i) pursuant to an
effective registration statement, (ii) to the Company, (iii) to an Affiliate
of
a Purchaser, (iv) pursuant to Rule 144 (provided
that the
Purchaser provides the Company with reasonable assurances (in the form of seller
and broker representation letters) that the securities may be sold pursuant
to
such rule) or Rule 144A, or (v) in connection with a bona fide pledge as
contemplated in Section 4.1(b), except as otherwise provided herein, the Company
may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of
counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company,
the
form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration under
the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree
in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights
of a Purchaser under this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.
(b) Legends.
Certificates evidencing the Securities and, if applicable, the Adjustment
Securities shall bear any legend as required by the “blue sky” laws of any state
and a restrictive legend in substantially the following form, until such time
as
they are not required under Section 4.1(c):
NEITHER
THESE SECURITIES NOR THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THESE SECURITIES
HAVE BEEN REGISTERED] [THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED] WITH THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE
IN
RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933,
AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD
EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT
OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT
TO,
THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR BLUE SKY LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL
OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY.
The
Company acknowledges and agrees that a Purchaser may from time to time pledge,
and/or grant a security interest in, some or all of the legended Securities
or
Adjustment Securities in connection with applicable securities laws, pursuant
to
a bona fide margin agreement in compliance with a bona fide margin loan. Such
a
pledge would not be subject to approval or consent of the Company and no legal
opinion of legal counsel to the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be
required in connection with the pledge, but such legal opinion shall be required
in connection with a subsequent transfer or foreclosure following default by
the
Purchaser’s transferee of the pledge. No notice shall be required of such
pledge, but Purchaser’s transferee shall promptly notify the Company of any such
subsequent transfer or foreclosure. Each Purchaser acknowledges that the Company
shall not be responsible for any pledges relating to, or the grant of any
security interest in, any of the Securities or the Adjustment Securities or
for
any agreement, understanding or arrangement between any Purchaser and its
pledgee or secured party. At the appropriate Purchaser’s expense, the Company
will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured
party of Shares or the Adjustment Shares may reasonably request in connection
with a pledge or transfer of such securities, including the preparation and
filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 423(b)(3) of the
Securities Act or other applicable provision of the Securities Act to
appropriately amend the list of Selling Stockholders thereunder. Each Purchaser
acknowledges and agrees that, except as otherwise provided in Section 4.1(c),
any Shares or Adjustment Shares subject to a pledge or security interest as
contemplated by this Section 4.1(b) shall continue to bear the legend set forth
in this Section 4.1(b) and be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth
in Section 4.1(a).
19
(c) Removal
of Legends.
The
legend set forth in Section 4.1(b) above shall be removed and the Company shall
issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of the Securities and,
if
applicable, the Adjustment Securities upon which it is stamped or issue to
such
holder by electronic delivery at the applicable balance account at The
Depository Trust Company (“DTC”),
if
(i) such securities are registered for resale under the Securities Act, or
(ii)
such securities are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming the
transferor is not an Affiliate of the Company) or Rule 144A. Any fees (with
respect to the Transfer Agent, counsel to the Company or otherwise) associated
with the issuance of a legal opinion require for the removal of such legend
shall be borne by the Company. If any portion of the Warrant is exercised at
a
time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale
of
the Warrant Shares, then such Warrant Shares shall be issued free of all
legends. Following the Effective Date, or at such earlier time as a legend
is no
longer required for certain Securities or, if applicable, Adjustment Securities,
the Company will no later than three (3) Trading Days following the delivery
by
a Purchaser to the Transfer Agent (with notice to the Company) of (i) a legended
certificate representing such Shares or Warrant Shares and, if applicable,
Adjustment Shares (endorsed or with stock powers attached, signatures
guaranteed, and otherwise in form necessary to affect the reissuance and/or
transfer) or (ii) an Exercise Notice in the manner stated in the Warrants to
effect the exercise thereof in accordance with its terms and an opinion of
counsel to the extent required by Section 4.1(a), deliver or cause to be
delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such Securities that
is
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.
(d) Acknowledgement.
Each
Purchaser hereunder acknowledges its primary responsibilities under the
Securities Act and accordingly will not sell the Shares, the Warrant Shares,
and, if applicable, the Adjustment Shares, or any interest therein without
complying with the requirements of the Securities Act. While the
above-referenced registration statement remains effective, each Purchaser
hereunder may sell the shares in accordance with the plan of distribution
contained in the Registration Statement and if it does so it will comply
therewith and with the related prospectus delivery requirements unless an
exemption therefrom is available. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly
with
the other Purchasers, agrees that if it is notified by the Company at any time
after the date any legend is removed pursuant to Section
4.1(c)
hereof
that the Registration Statement registering the resale of the Shares, the
Warrant Shares, or, if applicable, the Adjustment Shares, is not effective
or
that the prospectus included in such Registration Statement no longer complies
with the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act, the Purchaser will
refrain from selling such securities until such time as the Purchaser is
notified by the Company that such registration statement is effective or such
prospectus is compliant with Section 10 of the Exchange Act, unless such
Purchaser is able to, and does, sell such securities pursuant to an available
exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities
Act.
Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, agrees
to
indemnify the Company for any damages or losses resulting to the Company from
the Purchaser’s breach of its covenants set forth in the preceding
sentence.
20
4.2 Reservation
of Common Stock.
The
Company shall take all action necessary to at all times have authorized, and
reserved for the purpose of issuance from and after the Closing Date, no less
than 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
the
Warrants. Subject to the determination regarding issuance of the Adjustment
Shares, the Company shall take all action necessary to at all times have
authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance no less than the maximum
number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued as Adjustment Shares.
4.3 Form
D
and Blue Sky.
The
Company agrees to file a Form D with respect to the Securities and the
Adjustment Securities as required under Regulation D. The Company, on or before
the Closing Date, shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably
determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for or to qualify the
Securities and the Adjustment Securities for sale to the Purchasers at the
Closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities or “Blue Sky”
laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such
qualification), and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the
Purchasers on or prior to the Closing Date. The Company shall make all filings
and reports relating to the offer and sale of the Securities and the Adjustment
Securities required under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states
of the United States following the Closing Date.
4.4 No
Integration.
The
Company shall not, and shall use its best efforts to ensure that no Affiliate
of
the Company shall, 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 will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities and the
Adjustment Securities in a manner that would require the registration under
the
Securities Act of the sale thereof to the Purchasers, or that will be integrated
with the offer or sale of the Securities or the Adjustment 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 Publicity.
The
Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Purchaser or an Affiliate
of
any Purchaser, or include the name of any Purchaser or an Affiliate of any
Purchaser in any press release or filing with the Commission (other than the
Registration Statement) or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without
the
prior written consent of such Purchaser, except to the extent such disclosure
is
required by law, request of the Staff of the Commission or Trading Market
regulations. 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, such Purchaser will
maintain the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with
this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction)
and that
neither it nor any Affiliate acting on its behalf or pursuant to any
understanding with it will engage in any purchases or sales of, including any
short sales, the securities of the Company until twenty-four (24) hours after
the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly
announced by dissemination of the press release by the Company. The Company
shall issue a press release reasonably acceptable to the Placement Agents
disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated herein within
two
business days following the initial Closing.
4.6 Listing
of Securities.
If
following the date hereof the Company applies to have its Common Stock or other
securities listed on any Trading Market, it shall include in such application
the Shares, the Warrant Shares and, if applicable, the Adjustment Shares, and
will take such other action as is necessary to cause such securities to be
listed on such other Trading Market as promptly as practicable.
4.7 Reverse
Stock Split.
Within
fifteen (15) Business Days following the initial Closing Date, the Company
shall
effect a reverse stock split that results in each Purchaser holding the number
of Shares that would have been issued to such Purchaser on the initial Closing
Date had the Purchase Price been equal to $2.50.

4.8 TableMAX
Unit Holders.
The
Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all members
of
TableMAX that do not transfer their capital securities of TableMAX to the
Company in the Reverse Acquisition to do so on the same terms and conditions
applicable to the Reverse Acquisition as soon as practicable following the
initial Closing Date. To the extent that all members of TableMAX have not
transferred their TableMAX capital securities to the Company in accordance
with
the preceding sentence within thirty (30) Business Days following the initial
Closing Date, then the Company shall effect a merger between TableMAX and the
Company or a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company in which the capital
securities of such TableMAX members will be exchanged for securities of the
Company on the same terms and conditions applicable to the Reverse Acquisition,
subject to any dissenters’ rights to which such TableMAX members may be entitled
as a result of the transaction..

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 signature page were an original thereof.
6.11 Severability.
If any
provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable in any
respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions
of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and
the
parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision that is
a
reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such
substitute provision in this Agreement.
6.12 Rescission
and Withdrawal Right.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting
any
similar provisions of) the 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.
6.13 Replacement
of Securities.
If any
certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities or, if applicable, any
Adjustment 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, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate
or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to
the
Company and the Transfer Agent of such loss, theft or destruction and the
execution by the holder thereof of a customary lost certificate affidavit of
that fact and an agreement to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the
Transfer Agent for any losses in connection therewith or, if required by the
Transfer Agent, a bond in such form and amount as is reasonably required by
the
Transfer Agent. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument under such
circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs associated with
the issuance of such replacement securities. If a replacement certificate or
instrument evidencing any Securities or, if applicable, any replacement
securities is requested due to a mutilation thereof, the Company may require
delivery of such mutilated certificate or instrument as a condition precedent
to
any issuance of a replacement.
26
6.14 Adjustments
in Share Numbers and Prices.
In the
event of any stock split, subdivision, dividend or distribution payable in
shares of Common Stock (or other securities or rights convertible into, or
entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly shares of Common
Stock), combination or other similar recapitalization or event occurring after
the date hereof, each reference in any Transaction Document to a number of
shares or a price per share shall be deemed to be amended to appropriately
account for such event.
6.15 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 of the obligations of any other
Purchaser under any Transaction Document. The decision of each Purchaser to
purchase Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by
such
Purchaser independently of any other Purchaser and independently of any
information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs,
operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition
(financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company which may have been made
or
given by any other Purchaser or by any agent or employee of any other Purchaser,
and no Purchaser and any of its agents or employees shall have any liability
to
any other Purchaser (or any other Person) relating to or arising from any such
information, materials, statement or opinions. Nothing contained herein or
in
any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant 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 acknowledges that no other Purchaser has acted as agent for such
Purchaser in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no
Purchaser will be acting as agent of such Purchaser in connection with
monitoring its investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under 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. The Company acknowledges that each of the
Purchasers has been provided with the same Transaction Documents for the purpose
of closing a transaction with multiple Purchasers and not because it was
required or requested to do so by any Purchaser. The Company’s obligations to
each Purchaser under this Agreement are identical to its obligations to each
other Purchaser other than such differences resulting solely from the number
of
Securities purchased by such Purchaser, but regardless of whether such
obligations are memorialized herein or in another agreement between the Company
and a Purchaser.
6.16 Termination.
This
Agreement may be terminated and the sale and purchase of the Shares and the
Warrants abandoned at any time prior to the Closing by either the Company or
any
Purchaser (with respect to itself only) upon written notice to the other, if
the
Closing has not been consummated on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (prevailing Pacific
time) on the Outside Date; provided,
however,
that
the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section
6.16
shall
not be available to any Person whose failure to comply with its obligations
under this Agreement has been the cause of or resulted in the failure of the
Closing to occur on or before such time. Nothing in this Section
6.16
shall be
deemed to release any party from any liability for any breach by such party
of
the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents
or
to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other
party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction
Documents. In the event of a termination pursuant to this Section, the Company
shall promptly notify all non-terminating Purchasers. Upon a termination in
accordance with this Section, the Company and the terminating Purchaser(s)
shall
not have any further obligation or liability (including arising from such
termination) to the other, and no Purchaser will have any liability to any
other
Purchaser under the Transaction Documents as a result therefrom.
27
IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Securities Purchase
Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized signatories as
of
the date first indicated above.

Original
Issue Date:
[ ],
2008
|
CJPG,
Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”),
hereby certifies that, for value received,
[ ] or
its permitted registered assigns (the “Holder”),
is
entitled to purchase from the Company up to a total of
[ ]
shares of common stock, $0.001 par value (the “Common
Stock”),
of
the Company (each such share, a “Warrant
Share”
and
all
such shares, the “Warrant
Shares”)
at an
exercise price per share equal to $[ ] (as adjusted from time to time as
provided in Section 9 herein, the “Exercise
Price”),
at
any time and from time to time from on or after the date hereof (the “Trigger
Date”) and through and including 5:00 P.M., prevailing Pacific time, on
[ ],
2011 (the “Expiration
Date”),
and
subject to the following terms and conditions:
This
Warrant (this “Warrant”)
is one
of a series of similar warrants issued pursuant to that certain Securities
Purchase Agreement, dated [ ], 2008, by and among the Company and the Purchasers
identified therein (the “Purchase
Agreement”).
All
such warrants are referred to herein, collectively, as the “Warrants.”
1.
Definitions.
In
addition to the terms defined elsewhere in this Warrant, capitalized terms
that
are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the
Purchase Agreement.
2. Registration
of Warrants.
The
Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the
Company for that purpose (the “Warrant
Register”),
in
the name of the record Holder (which shall include the initial Holder or, as
the
case may be, any registered assignee to which this Warrant is permissibly
assigned hereunder) from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the
registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose
of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other
purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.
31
3.
Registration
of Transfers.
Subject
to the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 4.1 of the Purchase
Agreement and compliance with all applicable securities laws, the Company shall
register the transfer of all or any portion of this Warrant in the Warrant
Register, upon (i) surrender of this Warrant, with the Form of Assignment
attached as Schedule
2
hereto
duly completed and signed, to the Company’s transfer agent or to the Company at
its address specified herein (ii) delivery, at the request of the Company,
of an
opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that
the
transfer of such portion of this Warrant may be made pursuant to an available
exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and all
applicable state securities or blue sky laws and (iii) delivery by the
transferee of a written statement to the Company certifying that the transferee
is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act
and making the representations and certifications set forth in Section 3.2(b),
(c) and (d) of the Purchase Agreement, to the Company at its address specified
in the Purchase Agreement. Upon any such registration or transfer, a new warrant
to purchase Common Stock in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such
new
warrant, a “New
Warrant”)
evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the
transferee, and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant
not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder. The
acceptance of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the
acceptance by such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a Holder
of a Warrant.
4.
Exercise
and Duration of Warrants.
(a)
All
or
any part of this Warrant shall be exercisable by the registered Holder at any
time and from time to time on or after the Trigger Date and through and
including 5:00 P.M. prevailing Pacific time on the Expiration Date. At 5:00
P.M., prevailing Pacific time, on the Expiration Date, the portion of this
Warrant not exercised prior thereto shall be and become void and of no value
and
this Warrant shall be terminated and no longer outstanding.
(b) The
Holder may exercise this Warrant by delivering to the Company (i) an exercise
notice, in the form attached as Schedule 1 hereto (the “Exercise
Notice”),
appropriately completed and duly signed, (ii) payment of the Exercise Price
for
the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is being exercised (which
may take the form of a “cashless exercise” if so indicated in the Exercise
Notice and if a “cashless exercise” may occur at such time pursuant to Section
10 below), and the date such items are delivered to the Company (as determined
in accordance with the notice provisions hereof) is an “Exercise
Date.”
The
delivery by (or on behalf of) the Holder of the Exercise Notice and the
applicable Exercise Price as provided above shall constitute the Holder’s
certification to the Company that its representations contained in Section
3.2(b), (c) and (d) of the Purchase Agreement are true and correct as of the
Exercise Date as if remade in their entirety (or, in the case of any transferee
Holder that is not a party to the Purchase Agreement, such transferee Holder’s
certification to the Company that such representations are true and correct
as
to such assignee Holder as of the Exercise Date). The Holder shall not be
required to deliver the original Warrant in order to effect an exercise
hereunder. Execution and delivery of the Exercise Notice shall have the same
effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a New Warrant
evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant
Shares.
32
5.
Delivery
of Warrant Shares.
Upon
exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later
than
three Trading Days after the Exercise Date) issue or cause to be issued and
cause to be delivered to or upon the written order of the Holder and in such
name or names as the Holder may designate (provided that, if the Registration
Statement is not effective and the Holder directs the Company to deliver a
certificate for the Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the Holder
or an
Affiliate of the Holder, it shall deliver to the Company on the Exercise Date
an
opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that
the
issuance of such Warrant Shares in such other name may be made pursuant to
an
available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act
and
all applicable state securities or blue sky laws), a certificate for the Warrant
Shares issuable upon such exercise, free of restrictive legends, unless a
registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares and naming
the
Holder as a selling stockholder thereunder is not then effective or the Warrant
Shares are not freely transferable without volume restrictions pursuant to
Rule
144 under the Securities Act. The Holder, or any Person permissibly so
designated by the Holder to receive Warrant Shares, shall be deemed to have
become the holder of record of such Warrant Shares as of the Exercise Date.
If
the Warrant Shares are to be issued free of all restrictive legends, the Company
shall, upon the written request of the Holder, use its best efforts to deliver,
or cause to be delivered, Warrant Shares hereunder electronically through The
Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation performing
similar functions, if available; provided, that, the Company may, but will
not
be required to, change its transfer agent if its current transfer agent cannot
deliver Warrant Shares electronically through such a clearing
corporation.
6.
Charges,
Taxes and Expenses.
Issuance and delivery of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon exercise
of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or
transfer tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or expense in respect
of the issuance of such certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall
be
paid by the Company; provided,
however,
that
the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect
of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant
Shares or Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder or an Affiliate
thereof. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may
arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant
Shares upon exercise hereof.
7.
Replacement
of Warrant.
If this
Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or
cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation
hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but
only
upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss,
theft or destruction (in such case) and, in each case, a customary and
reasonable indemnity (which shall not include a surety bond), if requested.
Applicants for a New Warrant under such circumstances shall also comply with
such other reasonable regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable
third-party costs as the Company may prescribe. If a New Warrant is requested
as
a result of a mutilation of this Warrant, then the Holder shall deliver such
mutilated Warrant to the Company as a condition precedent to the Company’s
obligation to issue the New Warrant.
8.
Reservation
of Warrant Shares.
The
Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out
of
the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common
Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon
exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares which
are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant,
free
from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of persons other
than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of
Section
9).
The
Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall,
upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance
with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid
and
nonassessable. The Company will take all such action as may be necessary to
assure that such shares of Common Stock may be issued as provided herein without
violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of any
securities exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Common Shares
may be listed.
33
9.
Certain
Adjustments.
The
Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this
Section
9.
(a) Stock
Dividends and Splits.
If the
Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock
dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class
of
capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides its
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii)
combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares,
then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction,
the
numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately before such event and the denominator of which shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any
adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective
immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled
to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause
(ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the
effective date of such subdivision or combination.
(b) Fundamental
Transactions.
If, at
any time while this Warrant is outstanding (i) the Company effects any merger
or
consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, in which the Company
is not the survivor, (ii) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially
all of its assets or a majority of its Common Stock is acquired by a third
party, in each case, in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any
tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is
completed pursuant to which all or substantially all of the holders of Common
Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities,
cash or property, or (iv) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common
Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is
effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property
(other than as a result of a subdivision or combination of shares of Common
Stock covered by Section 9(a) above) (in any such case, a “Fundamental
Transaction”),
then
the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this
Warrant, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property as it would
have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental
Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction,
the holder of the number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise in full
of this Warrant without regard to any limitations on exercise contained herein
(the “Alternate
Consideration”).
The
Company shall not effect any such Fundamental Transaction unless prior to or
simultaneously with the consummation thereof, any successor to the Company,
surviving entity or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such
assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation
to
deliver to the Holder, such Alternate Consideration as, in accordance with
the
foregoing provisions, the Holder may be entitled to purchase and/or receive
(as
the case may be), and the other obligations under this Warrant. The provisions
of this paragraph (c) shall similarly apply to subsequent transactions analogous
to a Fundamental Transaction.
(c)
Number
of Warrant Shares.
Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to paragraph
(a) of this Section, the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so
that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for
the increased or decreased number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the
aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
adjustment.
34
(d)
Calculations.
All
calculations under this Section
9
shall be
made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th
of a
share, as applicable. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any
given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of
the
Company, and the sale or issuance of any such shares shall be considered an
issue or sale of Common Stock.
(e)
Notice
of Adjustments.
Upon
the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section
9,
the
Company at its expense will, at the written request of the Holder, promptly
compute such adjustment, in good faith, in accordance with the terms of this
Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including
a
statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number or type of Warrant
Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as
applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and
showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. Upon written
request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate
to
the Holder and to the Company’s transfer agent.
(f)
Notice
of Corporate Events.
If,
while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company (i) declares a dividend or any
other distribution of cash, securities or other property in respect of its
Common Stock, including, without limitation, any granting of rights or warrants
to subscribe for or purchase any capital stock of the Company, (ii) authorizes
or approves, enters into any agreement contemplating or solicits stockholder
approval for any Fundamental Transaction or (iii) authorizes the voluntary
dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then,
except if such notice and the contents thereof shall be deemed to constitute
material non-public information, the Company shall deliver to the Holder a
notice describing the material terms and conditions of such transaction at
least
ten (10) Trading Days prior to the applicable record or effective date on which
a Person would need to hold Common Stock in order to participate in or vote
with
respect to such transaction, and the Company will take all steps reasonably
necessary in order to insure that the Holder is given the practical opportunity
to exercise this Warrant prior to such time so as to participate in or vote
with
respect to such transaction; provided,
however,
that
the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the
validity of the corporate action required to be described in such notice.
10.
Payment
of Exercise Price.
The
Holder shall pay the Exercise Price in immediately available funds; provided,
however,
that
if, on any Exercise Date the shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
are
not freely resalable without restriction under the Securities Act, the Holder
may, in its sole discretion, satisfy its obligation to pay the Exercise Price
through a “cashless exercise”, in which event the Company shall issue to the
Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:
X
= Y
[(A-B)/A]
where:
X
= the
number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.
Y
= the
total number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being
exercised.
35
A
= the
average of the Closing Sale Prices of the shares of Common Stock (as reported
by
Bloomberg Financial Markets) for the five Trading Days ending on the date
immediately preceding the Exercise Date.
B
= the
Exercise Price then in effect for the applicable Warrant Shares at the time
of
such exercise.
For
purposes of this Warrant, “Closing
Sale Price”
means,
for any security as of any date, the last trade price for such security on
the
principal securities exchange or trading market for such security, as reported
by Bloomberg Financial Markets, or, if such exchange or trading market begins
to
operate on an extended hours basis and does not designate the last trade price,
then the last trade price of such security prior to 4:00:00 p.m., New York
Time,
as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets, or if the foregoing do not apply,
the last trade price of such security in the over-the-counter market on the
electronic bulletin board for such security as reported by Bloomberg Financial
Markets, or, if no last trade price is reported for such security by Bloomberg
Financial Markets, the average of the bid prices, or the ask prices,
respectively, of any market makers for such security as reported in the "pink
sheets" by Pink Sheets LLC. If the Closing Sale Price cannot be calculated
for a
security on a particular date on any of the foregoing bases, the Closing Sale
Price of such security on such date shall be the fair market value as mutually
determined by the Company and the Holder. If the Company and the Holder are
unable to agree upon the fair market value of such security, then the Company
shall, within two business days submit via facsimile (a) the disputed
determination of the Warrant Exercise Price to an independent, reputable
investment bank selected by the Company and approved by the Holder or (b) the
disputed arithmetic calculation of the Warrant Shares to the Company's
independent, outside accountant. The Company shall cause at its expense the
investment bank or the accountant, as the case may be, to perform the
determinations or calculations and notify the Company and the Holder of the
results no later than ten business days from the time it receives the disputed
determinations or calculations. Such investment bank's or accountant's
determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all
parties absent demonstrable error. All such determinations to be appropriately
adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar
transaction during the applicable calculation period
For
purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended,
understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless
exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and
the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced,
on
the date this Warrant was originally issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement
(provided that the Commission continues to take the position that such treatment
is proper at the time of such exercise).
11.
No
Fractional Shares.
No
fractional Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise of
this
Warrant. In lieu of any fractional shares which would otherwise be issuable,
the
number of Warrant Shares to be issued shall be rounded up to the next whole
number.
12.
Notices.
Any and
all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including, without
limitation, any Exercise Notice) shall be in writing and shall be deemed given
and effective on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice
or
communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number specified
in
the Purchase Agreement prior to 5:00 p.m. (prevailing Pacific time) on a Trading
Day, (ii) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice
or
communication is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number specified
in
the Purchase Agreement on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 5:00
p.m. (prevailing Pacific time) on any Trading Day, (iii) the Trading Day
following the date of mailing, if sent by nationally recognized overnight
courier service specifying next business day delivery, or (iv) upon actual
receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given, if by hand
delivery. The address and facsimile number of a party for such notices or
communications shall be as set forth in the Purchase Agreement unless changed
by
such party by two Trading Days’ prior notice to the other party in accordance
with this Section 12.
36
13.
Warrant
Agent.
The
Company shall serve as warrant agent under this Warrant. Upon thirty (30) days’
notice to the Holder, the Company may appoint a new warrant agent. Any
corporation into which the Company or any new warrant agent may be merged or
any
corporation resulting from any consolidation to which the Company or any new
warrant agent shall be a party or any corporation to which the Company or any
new warrant agent transfers substantially all of its corporate trust or
shareholders services business shall be a successor warrant agent under this
Warrant without any further act. Any such successor warrant agent shall promptly
cause notice of its succession as warrant agent to be mailed (by first class
mail, postage prepaid) to the Holder at the Holder’s last address as shown on
the Warrant Register.
14.
Miscellaneous.
6.17 The

with
the Commission a Registration Statement covering the resale of all Registrable
Securities not already covered by an existing and effective Registration
Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule
415
(the “Initial
Registration Statement”).
The
Initial Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 (except if the Company
is
not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form
S-3,
in which case such registration shall be on another appropriate form in
accordance with the Securities Act) and shall contain (except if otherwise
required pursuant to written comments received from the Commission upon a review
of such Registration Statement) the “Plan of Distribution” attached hereto as
Annex A. Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this
subsection (a) and subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 2, in the event
the
Commission informs the Company that all of the Registrable Securities cannot,
as
a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale on a single
registration statement, the Company agrees to promptly (i) inform each of the
holders thereof and use its reasonable best efforts to file amendments to the
Initial Registration Statement as required by the Commission and/or (ii)
withdraw the Initial Registration Statement and file a new registration
statement (a “New
Registration Statement”),
in
either case covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted
to
be registered by the Commission on Form S-3 or such other form available to
register for resale the Registrable Securities. In the event the Company amends
the Initial Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as
the
case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Company will use its
reasonable best efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed
by
Commission or staff guidance provided to the Company or to registrants of
securities in general, one or more registration statements on Form S-3 or such
other form available to register for resale those Registrable Securities that
were not registered for resale on the Initial Registration Statement, as
amended, or the New Registration Statement (the “Remainder
Registration Statements”).
45
8.2 The
Company shall use its best efforts to cause each Registration Statement to
be
declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable and, with respect
to
the Initial Registration Statement or the New Registration Statement, as
applicable, no later than the Effectiveness Deadline (including filing with
the
Commission a request for acceleration of effectiveness in accordance with Rule
461 promulgated under the Securities Act within five (5) Business Days after
the
date that the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier)
by the Commission that such Registration Statement will not be “reviewed,” or
not be subject to further review and the effectiveness of such Registration
Statement may be accelerated) and shall use its reasonable best efforts to
keep
each Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act
until the earlier of (i) such time as all of the Registrable Securities covered
by such Registration Statement have been publicly sold by the Holders, (ii)
the
date that all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement
may
be sold by non-affiliates without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144
as
determined by 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 Holders, or (iii) two (2) years following the applicable Effective
Date
(the “Effectiveness
Period”).
The
Company shall ensure that each Registration Statement (including any amendments
or supplements thereto and prospectuses contained therein) shall not contain
any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required
to
be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case
of
prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made) not
misleading. Each Registration Statement shall also cover, to the extent
allowable under the Securities Act and the rules promulgated thereunder
(including Rule 416), such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common
Stock resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions
with
respect to the Registrable Securities. The Company shall telephonically request
effectiveness of a Registration Statement as of 5:00 pm Eastern Time on a
Trading Day. The Company shall promptly notify the Holders via facsimile or
e-mail of the effectiveness of a Registration Statement on the same Trading
Day
that the Company telephonically confirms effectiveness with the Commission,
which shall be the date requested for effectiveness of a Registration Statement.
The Company shall, by 9:30 am Eastern Time on the Trading Day after the
Effective Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), file a final Prospectus
with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424.
8.3
If: (i)
the Initial Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to the applicable
Filing Deadline, (ii) the Initial Registration Statement or the New Registration
Statement, as applicable, is not declared effective by the Commission (or
otherwise does not become effective) on or prior to its Effectiveness Deadline
or (iii) after its Effective Date, such Registration Statement ceases for any
reason (including without limitation by reason of a stop order, or the Company’s
failure to update the Registration Statement), but excluding the inability
of
any Holder to sell the Registrable Securities covered thereby due to market
conditions, to remain continuously effective and available to the Holders as
to
all Registrable Securities to which it is required to cover at any time prior
to
the expiration of the Effectiveness Period for (A) an aggregate of more than
20
consecutive Trading Days or for more than an aggregate of 40 Trading Days in
any
12-month period (which need not be consecutive) if the Registration Statement
is
filed on Form S-3, or (B) an aggregate of more than 30 consecutive Trading
Days
or for more than an aggregate of 60 Trading Days in any 12-month period (which
need not be consecutive) if the Registration Statement is filed on a form other
than Form S-3 (any such failure or breach in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above
being referred to as an “Event,”
and,
for purposes of clauses (i) or (ii), the date on which such Event occurs, or
for
purposes of clause (iii), the date which such consecutive or Trading Day period
(as applicable) is exceeded, being referred to as “Event
Date”),
then
in addition to any other rights available to the Holders: (x) on such Event
Date
the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as partial liquidated
damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1.0% of the aggregate purchase price
paid
by such Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for any Registrable Securities
then held by such Holder (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other
remedies available under this Agreement); and (y) on each monthly anniversary
of
each such Event Date thereof (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured
by such date) until the applicable Event is cured, the Company shall pay to
each
Holder an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty,
equal to 1.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Holder pursuant
to
the Purchase Agreement for any Registrable Securities then held by such Holder
(which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available under
this
Agreement). The parties agree that the Company will not be liable for liquidated
damages under this Section 2(c) in respect of the Warrants, the Warrant Shares,
the Adjustment Warrants or the Adjustment Warrant Shares. If the Company fails
to pay any partial liquidated damages pursuant to this Section in full within
seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at
a
rate of 10% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be
paid by applicable law) to the Holder, accruing daily from the date such partial
liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon,
are paid in full. The partial liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof
shall apply on a daily pro-rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the
cure of an Event, except in the case of the first Event Date. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the maximum payment to a Holder associated with all Events in
the
aggregate shall not exceed (i) in any 30-day period, an aggregate of 1.0% of
the
purchase price paid by such Holder for its Registrable Securities (plus interest
accrued thereon, if applicable) and (ii) 10.0% of the purchase paid by such
Holder for its Registrable Securities.
46
(d) Each
Holder agrees to furnish to the Company a completed and executed Selling
Shareholder Questionnaire. The Company shall not be required to include the
Registrable Securities of a Holder in a Registration Statement and shall not
be
required to pay any liquidated or other damages under Section 2(c) to any Holder
who fails to furnish to the Company a fully completed and executed Selling
Shareholder Questionnaire at least two Trading Days prior to the Filing
Deadline, or if sooner, five Trading Days after the Company furnishes copies
of
the sections of the Prospectus, as contemplated by Section 3(a).
(e) The
Company shall cooperate with the Placement Agents in connection with any filing
required to be made by the Placement Agents with the Financial Industry
Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”)
Corporate Financing Department pursuant to FINRA Rule 2710(b)(10)(A)(i) with
respect to the public offering contemplated by the Registration Statements
(a
“FINRA
Filing”)
and
pay the filing fee required by such FINRA Filing. The Company shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Placements Agents and
to
assist them in pursuing the FINRA Filing until FINRA issues a letter confirming
that it does not object to the terms of the offering contemplated by the
Registration Statement.
(f) In
the
event that Form S-3 is not available for the registration of the resale of
Registrable Securities hereunder, the Company shall
(i)
register the resale of the Registrable Securities on another appropriate form
reasonably acceptable to the Holders and (ii) undertake to register the
Registrable Securities on Form S-3 as soon as such form is available, provided
that the Company shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement
then in effect until such time as a Registration Statement on Form S-3 covering
the Registrable Securities has been declared effective by the Commission.

specifically this transaction or the Holders, as proposed to be filed, which
sections will be subject to the review of such Holder (it being acknowledged
and
agreed that if a Holder does not object to or comment on the aforementioned
documents within such five Trading Day period, then the Holder shall be deemed
to have consented to and approved the use of such documents). The Company shall
not file a Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any amendments or
supplements thereto in which the “Selling Stockholder” section thereof differs

Statements in order to register for resale under the Securities Act all of
the
Registrable Securities; (ii) cause the related Prospectus to be amended or
supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented

amended to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; (iii) respond as promptly as

comments that would result in the disclosure to the Holders of material and
non-public information concerning the Company; and (iv) comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the
disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by each Registration
Statement.

below, not less than three Trading Days prior to such filing, in the case of
(iii) and (iv) below, not more than one Trading Day after such issuance or
receipt and, in the case of (v) below, not less than three Trading Days prior
to
the financial statements in any Registration Statement becoming ineligible
for
inclusion therein) and (if requested by any such Person) confirm such notice
in
writing no later than one Trading Day following the day (i)(A) when a Prospectus
or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to a Registration
Statement is proposed to be filed; (B) when the Commission notifies the Company
whether there will be a “review” of such Registration Statement and whenever the
Commission comments in writing on any Registration Statement (in which case
the
Company shall provide true and complete copies thereof and all written responses
thereto to each of the Holders that pertain to the Holders as a Selling
Stockholder or to the Plan of Distribution, but not information which the
Company believes would constitute material and non-public information); and
(C)
with respect to each Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment,
when the same has become effective; (ii) of any request by the Commission or
any
other Federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements
to a
Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information that pertains
to the Holders as Selling Stockholders or the Plan of Distribution; (iii) of
the
issuance by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority
of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement
covering any or all of the Registrable Securities or the initiation of any
Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption
from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any
jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such
purpose; (v) of the occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes the
financial statements included in a Registration Statement ineligible for
inclusion therein or any statement made in such Registration Statement or
Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein
by
reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to
such
Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case
of
such Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will
not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
(in the case of any Prospectus, form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made), not misleading; and
(vi)
of a pending proceeding against the Company under Section 8A of the Securities
Act in connection with the offering of Registrable Securities.
48
9.4 Use
reasonable best efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued, obtain the
withdrawal of (i) any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration
Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from
qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any
jurisdiction, as soon as practicable.
9.5 If
requested by a Holder, furnish to such Holder, without charge, at least one
conformed copy of each Registration Statement and each amendment thereto and
all
exhibits to the extent requested by such Person (including those previously
furnished or incorporated by reference) promptly after the filing of such
documents with the Commission; provided, that the Company shall have no
obligation to provide any document pursuant to this clause that is available
on
the Commission’s XXXXX system.
9.6 Upon
notification by the Commission that a Registration Statement will not be
reviewed or is no longer subject to further review and comments, the Company
shall request acceleration of such Registration Statement within five (5)
Business Days after receipt of such notice such that it becomes effective no
later than 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Effective Date and file a
prospectus supplement for any Registration Statement, whether or not it is
required under Rule 424 (or otherwise), by 9:00 a.m. New York City time the
day
after the Effective Date.
9.7 Prior
to
any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its best efforts to register
or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders in connection with the
registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) of such Registrable
Securities for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such
jurisdictions within the United States as any Holder reasonably requests in
writing, to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption
therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness Period and to do any and all
other
acts or things reasonably necessary to enable the disposition in such
jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration
Statements; provided,
that
the
Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any
jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or to take any action that would
subject the Company to general service of process in any jurisdiction where
it
is not then so subject or subject the Company to any material tax in any such
jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.
9.8 If
requested by the Holders, cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely
preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities
to
be delivered to a transferee pursuant to the Registration Statement, which
certificates shall be free, to the extent permitted by the Purchase Agreement
and under law, of all restrictive legends, and to enable such Registrable
Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as any
such
Holders may reasonably request. In connection therewith, if required by the
Company’s transfer agent, the Company shall promptly after the effectiveness of
the Registration Statement cause an opinion of counsel as to the effectiveness
of the Registration Statement to be delivered to and maintained with its
transfer agent, together with any other authorizations, certificates and
directions required by the transfer agent, which authorize and direct the
transfer agent to issue such Registrable Securities without legend upon sale
by
the holder of such shares of Registrable Securities under the Registration
Statement.
9.9 Following
the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 3(c)(v), as promptly as
reasonably possible, prepare a supplement or amendment, including a
post-effective amendment, to the affected Registration Statements or a
supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed
to
be incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document
so
that, as thereafter delivered, no Registration Statement nor any Prospectus
will
contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in
the case of any Prospectus, form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light
of the circumstances under which they were made), not
misleading.
49
9.10 (i)
In
the time and manner required by the Principal Trading Market, prepare and file
with such Trading Market an additional shares listing application covering
all
of the Registrable Securities, (ii) take all steps necessary to cause such
Registrable Securities to be approved for listing on the Principal Trading
Market as soon as possible thereafter, (iii) if requested by any Holder, provide
such Holder evidence of such listing, and (iv) during the Effectiveness Period,
maintain the listing of such Registrable Securities on the Principal Trading
Market.
9.11 In
order
to enable the Holders to sell Shares or Warrant Shares under Rule 144, for
a
period of two years from the Closing, the Company shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts 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 after the date hereof pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act. During such two year period, if the Company is not required to file reports
pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, it will prepare and
furnish to the Holders and make publicly available in accordance with Rule
144(c) promulgated under the Securities Act annual and quarterly financial
statements, together with a discussion and analysis of such financial statements
in form and substance substantially similar to those that would otherwise be
required to be included in reports required by Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act, as well as any other information required thereby, in the time
period that such filings would have been required to have been made under the
Exchange Act. The Company further covenants that it will take such further
action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from
time to time to enable such Person to sell Shares and Warrant Shares without
registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions
provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, including compliance
with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement relating to the transfer of the
Shares and Warrant Shares.
9.12 The
Company may require each selling Holder to furnish to the Company a certified
statement as to the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by
such
Holder and any Affiliate thereof and as to any FINRA affiliations and of any
natural persons who have the power to vote or dispose of the Common Stock,
and
the Company has the right to include such information in any Registration
Statement and to otherwise provide such information to the Commission.
ARTICLE
X.Registration
Expenses.
All
fees and expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with
its obligations under this Agreement (excluding any underwriting discounts
and
selling commissions and all legal fees and expenses of legal counsel for any
Holder) shall be borne by the Company whether or not any Registrable Securities
are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement. The fees and expenses referred
to
in the foregoing sentence shall include, without limitation, (i) all
registration and filing fees (including, without limitation, fees and expenses
(A) with respect to filings required to be made with the securities exchanges
on
which the Common Stock is then listed for trading, and (B) in compliance with
applicable state securities or Blue Sky laws), (ii) messenger, telephone and
delivery expenses, (iii) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company,
(iv)

and
expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties),
the expense of any annual audit and the fees and expenses incurred in connection
with the listing of the Registrable Securities on any securities exchange as
required hereunder. In no event shall the Company be responsible for any broker
or similar commissions or any legal fees or other costs of the
Holders.

ARTICLE
XI.Indemnification.
11.1 Indemnification
by the Company.
The
Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, indemnify
and
hold harmless each Holder, the officers, directors, agents, partners, members,
managers, shareholders, Affiliates and employees of each of them, each Person
who controls any such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, partners,
members, managers, shareholders, agents and employees of each such controlling
Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against
any
and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without
limitation, reasonable costs of preparation and investigation and reasonable
attorneys' fees) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”),
as
incurred that arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any
Prospectus or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto
(it being understood that the Holder has approved Annex
A
hereto
for this purpose) or in any preliminary prospectus if used prior to the
effective date of such Registration Statement or arising out of or relating
to
any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any
Prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or (ii) any violation
or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, Exchange Act or
any
state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with
the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent,
but only to the extent, that (A) such untrue statements, alleged untrue
statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based upon information regarding
such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for
use
therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder or such
Holder's proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was
reviewed and approved by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration
Statement, such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any amendment or
supplement thereto (it being understood that each Holder has approved
Annex
A
hereto
for this purpose) or (B) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type
specified in Section 3(c)(ii)-(v), the use by a Holder of an outdated or
defective Prospectus after the Company has notified such Holder in writing
that
the Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder
of Advice (as defined in Section 6(d)
below),
but only if and to the extent that following the receipt of the Advice the
misstatement or omission giving rise to such Loss would have been corrected;
provided,
however,
that
the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5(a) shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any Losses if such settlement is effected without
the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. Each Holder shall notify the Company promptly of the
institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding of which the Holder is aware
in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Such
indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation
made by or on behalf of an Indemnified Party (as defined in Section 5(c)) and
shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities by the
Holders.
11.2 Indemnification
by Holders.
Each
Holder shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, severally
and
not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers,
agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning
of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and
the
directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling Persons, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as
incurred, arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement
of
a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or
any
form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or arising solely
out of or based solely upon any omission or alleged omission of a material
fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in
the case of any Prospectus, or any form of prospectus or supplement thereto,
in
light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading to the
extent, but only to the extent that, such untrue statements or omissions are
based upon information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Company
by such Holder expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information
relates to such Holder or such Holder’s proposed method of distribution of
Registrable Securities and was reviewed and approved by such Holder expressly
for use in the Registration Statement (it being understood that the Holder
has
approved Annex
A
hereto
for this purpose), such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any
amendment or supplement thereto; provided,
however,
that
the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5(b) shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any Losses if such settlement is effected without
the prior written consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder hereunder be
greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such
Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such
indemnification obligation.
51
11.3 Conduct
of Indemnification Proceedings.
If any
Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity
hereunder (an “Indemnified
Party”),
such
Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought
(the “Indemnifying
Party”)
in
writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense
thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Indemnified Party and the payment of all reasonable fees and expenses incurred
in connection with defense thereof; provided,
that
the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve
the
Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement,
except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally determined by a court
of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or
further review) that such failure shall have proximately and materially
adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.
An
Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such
Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses
of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties
unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and
expenses; (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the
defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to
such
Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any such
Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified
Party
and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised
by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel
were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which
case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing
that
it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party,
the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof
and such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party); provided,
that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of
more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all Indemnified
Parties. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any
such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not
be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. No Indemnifying Party shall,
without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any
settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party
is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such
Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter
of
such Proceeding.
All
fees
and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses
to
the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend
such
Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to
the
Indemnified Party, as incurred, within twenty Trading Days of written notice
thereof to the Indemnifying Party.
11.4 Contribution.
If a
claim for indemnification under Section 5(a) or 5(b) is unavailable to an
Indemnified Party (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each
Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result
of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the
actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying
Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material
fact,
has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such
Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result
of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth
in Section 5(c), any reasonable attorneys' or other reasonable fees or expenses
incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such
party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the
indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in
accordance with its terms.
52
The
parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by
any
other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable
considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(d), no Holder shall be required
to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which
the
net proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable
Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that
such
Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.
The
indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition
to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified
Parties and are not in diminution or limitation of the indemnification
provisions under the Purchase Agreement.
ARTICLE
XII.Miscellaneous
12.1 Remedies.
In the
event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder of any of their obligations
under this Agreement, each Holder or the Company, as the case may be, in
addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and under
this
Agreement, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific
performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company and each Holder
agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation for any
losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this
Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any action for
specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall waive the defense
that
a remedy at law would be adequate.
12.2 Entire
Agreement.
This
Agreement is intended by the parties as a final expression of their agreement
and intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and
understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained
herein. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings
between the parties with respect to such subject matter, except for, and as
provided in the Transaction Documents.
12.3 Compliance.
Each
Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the prospectus delivery
requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it (unless an exemption
therefrom is available) in connection with sales of Registrable Securities
pursuant to the Registration Statement and shall sell the Registrable Securities
only in accordance with a method of distribution described in the Registration
Statement.
12.4 Discontinued
Disposition.
Each
Holder further agrees by its acquisition of such Registrable Securities that,
upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of
the
kind described in Section 3(c)(ii)-(v), such Holder will forthwith discontinue
disposition of such Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement
until it is advised in writing (the “Advice”)
by the
Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and, in either
case, has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in such Prospectus or
Registration Statement. The Company may provide appropriate stop orders to
enforce the provisions of this paragraph.
53
12.5 Amendments
and Waivers.
This
Agreement may be amended only by a writing signed by Holders of at least 75%
of
the Registrable Securities; provided,
however,
that an
amendment that has a material and adverse affect on the registration obligations
of the Company hereunder shall require a writing signed by all of the parties
hereto. The Company may take any action herein prohibited that pertains to
or
effects a Purchaser, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed
by it that pertains to or effects a Purchaser, only if the Company shall have
obtained the written consent to such amendment, action or omission to act,
of
such Purchaser. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Holder to
amend
or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement unless
the same consideration also is offered to all of the Holders. Failure of any
party to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement or otherwise or
delay
by a party in exercising such right or remedy shall not operate as a waiver
thereof.
12.6 Notices.
Any and
all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to
be
provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective
on the earliest of (i) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication

12.7 Successors
and Assigns.
This
Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors
and
permitted assigns of each of the parties and shall inure to the benefit of
each
Holder. The Company may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder without
the prior written consent of each Holder. The rights of the Holders hereunder,
including the right to have the Company register Registrable Securities pursuant
to this Agreement, may be assigned by each Holder to transferees or assignees
of
all or any portion of the Registrable Securities, but only if (i) the Holder
agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and
a
copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company within a reasonable time
after such assignment, (ii) the Company is, within a reasonable time after
such
transfer or assignment, furnished with written notice of the name and address
of
such transferee or assignee and the securities with respect to which such
registration rights are being transferred or assigned, (iii) at or before the
time the Company received the written notice contemplated by clause (ii) of
this
sentence, the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to
be
bound by all of the provisions contained herein and (iv) the transferee is
an
“accredited investor,” as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation
D.
12.8 Execution
and Counterparts.
This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when
so
executed shall be deemed to be an original and, all of which taken together
shall constitute one and the same Agreement. In the event that any signature
is
delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid binding
obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is
executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature
were the original thereof.
12.9 Governing
Law.
All
questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance
with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the
principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all Proceedings
concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement (whether brought against a party hereto or its
respective Affiliates, employees or agents) will be commenced in the New York
Courts. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the New York Courts for the adjudication of any dispute
hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby
or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert
in
any Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction
of any New York Court, or that such Proceeding has been commenced in an improper
or inconvenient forum. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal
service of process and consents to process being served in any such 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. Nothing contained herein
shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner
permitted by law. EACH
PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING ARISING
OUT
OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
HEREBY.
If
either party shall commence a Proceeding to endorse any provisions of a
Transaction Document, then the prevailing party in such Proceeding shall be
reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorney’s fees and other costs
and expenses incured with the investigation preparation and prosecution of
such
Proceeding.
55
12.10 Cumulative
Remedies.
The
remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies
provided by law.
12.11 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 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.
12.12 Headings.
The
headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall
not
limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.
12.13 Independent
Nature of Purchasers' Obligations and Rights.
The
obligations of each Purchaser under this Agreement are several and not joint
with the obligations of any other Purchaser hereunder, and no Purchaser shall
be
responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other
Purchaser hereunder. The decision of each Purchaser to purchase Securities
pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made independently of any other

Annex
A
PLAN
OF DISTRIBUTION
We
are
registering the shares of Common Stock issued to the selling shareholders and
issuable upon exercise of the warrants to permit the resale of these shares
of
Common Stock by the holders of the shares of Common Stock and warrants from
time
to time after the date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the
proceeds from the sale by the selling shareholders of the shares of Common
Stock. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register
the shares of Common Stock.
The
selling shareholders may sell all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by them and offered hereby from time to time directly or
through one or more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the shares of
Common Stock are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, the selling
shareholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions
or
agent's commissions. The shares of Common Stock may be sold in one or more
transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the
sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.
These sales may be effected in transactions, which may involve crosses or block
transactions. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following
methods when selling shares:
·
|
on
any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the
securities may be listed or quoted at the time of
sale;
|
·
|
in
the over-the-counter market;
|
·
|
in
transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the
over-the-counter market;
|
·
|
through
the writing of options, whether such options are listed on an options
exchange or otherwise;
|
·
|
ordinary
brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer
solicits purchasers;
|
·
|
block
trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares
as agent
but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to
facilitate the transaction;
|
·
|
purchases
by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for
its
account;
|
·
|
an
exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable
exchange;
|
·
|
privately
negotiated transactions;
|
·
|
settlement
of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration
statement of which this prospectus is a
part;
|
·
|
broker-dealers
may agree with the selling securityholders to sell a specified number
of
such shares at a stipulated price per
share;
|
·
|
a
combination of any such methods of sale;
and
|
·
|
any
other method permitted pursuant to applicable
law.
|
The
selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities
Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers
engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to
participate in sales. If the selling shareholders effect such transactions
by
selling shares of Common Stock to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or
agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions
in
the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling shareholders
or commissions from purchasers of the shares of Common Stock for whom they
may
act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal. Such commissions will be
in
amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this
Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction will not be in excess of a
customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the
case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA
IM-2440.
In
connection with sales of the shares of Common Stock or otherwise, the selling
shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other
financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares
of
Common Stock in the course of hedging in positions they assume. The selling
shareholders may also sell shares of Common Stock short and if such short sale
shall take place after the date that this Registration Statement is declared
effective by the Commission, the selling stockholders may deliver shares of
Common Stock covered by this prospectus to close out short positions and to
return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales. The selling
shareholders may also loan or pledge shares of Common Stock to broker-dealers
that in turn may sell such shares. The selling stockholders may also enter
into
option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions
or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery
to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this
prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution
may
resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such
transaction).
The
selling shareholders may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all
of
the warrants or shares of Common Stock owned by them and, if they default in
the
performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may
offer and sell the shares of Common Stock from time to time pursuant to this
prospectus or any amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other
applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, amending, if
necessary, the list of selling shareholders to include the pledgee, transferee
or other successors in interest as selling shareholders under this prospectus.
The selling shareholders also may transfer and donate the shares of Common
Stock
in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other
successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of
this prospectus.
The
selling shareholders and any broker-dealer participating in the distribution
of
the shares of Common Stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning
of the Securities Act, and any commission paid, or any discounts or concessions
allowed to, any such broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting commissions
or discounts under the Securities Act. At the time a particular offering of
the
shares of Common Stock is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will
be
distributed which will set forth (i) the name of each such selling stockholder
and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved,
(iii) the price at which such the shares of Common Stock were sold, (iv) the
commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s),
where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any
investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference
in
this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In no event
shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commission and markups which, in the
aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%). In addition, upon the Company being
notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that a donee or pledgee intends
to
sell more than 500 shares of Common Stock, a supplement to this prospectus
will
be filed if then required in accordance with applicable securities
law.
Under
the
securities laws of some states, the shares of Common Stock may be sold in such
states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition,
in
some states the shares of Common Stock may not be sold unless such shares have
been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from
registration or qualification is available and is complied with.
There
can
be no assurance that any selling shareholder will sell any or all of the shares
of Common Stock registered pursuant to the shelf registration statement, of
which this prospectus forms a part.
We
have
advised each selling stockholder that it may not use shares registered on the
registration statement of which this prospectus is a part to cover short sales
of common stock made prior to the date on which the registration statement
shall
have been declared effective by the SEC. If a selling stockholder uses this
prospectus for any sale of shares of our common stock, it will be subject to
the
prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling shareholders
and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to
applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and
the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, Regulation
M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of
any
of the shares of Common Stock by the selling shareholders and any other
participating person. Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person
engaged in the distribution of the shares of Common Stock to engage in
market-making activities with respect to the shares of Common Stock. All of
the
foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of Common Stock and the
ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with
respect to the shares of Common Stock.
We
will
pay all expenses of the registration of the shares of Common Stock pursuant
to
the registration rights agreement, including, without limitation, Securities
and
Exchange Commission filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities
or “blue sky” laws; provided,
however,
that a
selling shareholder will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions,
if any and any related legal expenses incurred by it. We will indemnify the
selling shareholders against liabilities, including some liabilities under
the
Securities Act, in accordance with the registration rights agreements, or the
selling shareholders will be entitled to contribution. We may be indemnified
by
the selling shareholders against civil liabilities, including liabilities under
the Securities Act, that may arise from any written information furnished to
us
by the selling shareholder specifically for use in this prospectus, in
accordance with the related registration rights agreements, or we may be
entitled to contribution.

INVESTOR QUESTIONNAIRE
(ALL

To: CJPG,
Inc.
This
Investor Questionnaire (“Questionnaire”)
must
be completed by each potential investor in connection with the offer and sale
of
the shares of the common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and shares of common
stock that may be issued upon exercise of certain warrants (collectively, the
“Securities”),
of
CJPG, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Corporation”).
The
Securities are being offered and sold by the Corporation without registration
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”),
and
the securities laws of certain states, in reliance on the exemptions contained
in Section 4(2) of the Act and on Regulation D promulgated thereunder and
in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. The Corporation
must determine that a potential investor meets certain suitability requirements
before offering or selling Securities to such investor. The purpose of this
Questionnaire is to assure the Corporation that each investor will meet the
applicable suitability requirements. The information supplied by you will be
used in determining whether you meet such criteria, and reliance upon the
private offering exemptions from registration is based in part on the
information herein supplied.
This
Questionnaire does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an
offer
to buy any security. Your answers will be kept strictly confidential. However,
by signing this Questionnaire, you will be authorizing the Corporation to
provide a completed copy of this Questionnaire to such parties as the
Corporation deems appropriate in order to ensure that the offer and sale of
the
Securities will not result in a violation of the Act or the securities laws
of
any state and that you otherwise satisfy the suitability standards applicable
to
purchasers of the Securities. All potential investors must answer all applicable
questions and complete, date and sign this Questionnaire. Please print or type
your responses and attach additional sheets of paper if necessary to complete
