3(i)
hereof,
to the best of the Company’s knowledge, as presently contemplated to be operated
in the future); there is no claim or action by any person pertaining to, or

hereof,
to the best of the Company’s knowledge, as presently contemplated to be operated

m. Acknowledgment
Regarding Buyers’ Purchase of Securities.
The
Company acknowledges and agrees that the Buyers are acting solely in the
capacity of arm’s length purchasers with respect to this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby. The Company further acknowledges that no
Buyer
is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar
capacity) with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby and any statement made by any Buyer or any of their respective
representatives or agents in connection with this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby is not advice or a recommendation and is merely incidental
to the Buyers’ purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents to
each Buyer that the Company’s decision to enter into this Agreement has been
based solely on the independent evaluation of the Company and its
representatives.
n. No
Integrated Offering.
Neither
the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their
behalf, has directly or indirectly made any offers or sales in any security
or
solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would require
registration under the 1933 Act of the issuance of the Securities to the Buyers.
The issuance of the Securities to the Buyers will not be integrated with any
other issuance of the Company’s securities (past, current or future) for
purposes of any shareholder approval provisions applicable to the Company or
its
securities.
o. Permits;
Compliance.
The
Company and each of its Subsidiaries is in possession of all franchises, grants,
authorizations, licenses, permits, easements, variances, exemptions, consents,
certificates, approvals and orders necessary to own, lease and operate its
properties and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted
(collectively, the “Company
Permits”),
and
there is no action pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened
regarding suspension or cancellation of any of the Company Permits. Neither
the
Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in conflict with, or in default or
violation of, any of the Company Permits, except for any such conflicts,
defaults or violations which, individually or in the aggregate, would not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Since June 30, 2006,
neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notification
with respect to possible conflicts, defaults or violations of applicable laws,
except for notices relating to possible conflicts, defaults or violations,
which
conflicts, defaults or violations would not have a Material Adverse
Effect.
p. Title
to Property.
The
Company and its Subsidiaries have good and marketable title in fee simple to
all
real property and good and marketable title to all personal property owned
by
them which is material to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries,
in
each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and defects except such
as
are described in Schedule
3(p)
or such
as would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Any real property and facilities
held under lease by the Company and its Subsidiaries are held by them under
valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as would not
have
a Material Adverse Effect.
9
q. Insurance.
The
Company and each of its Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of adequate
financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts
as
management of the Company believes to be prudent and customary in the businesses
in which the Company and its Subsidiaries are engaged. Neither the Company
nor
any such Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew
its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain
similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its
business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
r. Internal
Accounting Controls.
The
Company and each of its Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting
controls sufficient, in the judgment of the Company’s management, to provide
reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with
management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded
as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability,
(iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general
or specific authorization and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is
compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action
is taken with respect to any differences.
s. No
Investment Company.
The
Company is not, and upon the issuance and sale of the Securities as contemplated
by this Agreement will not be an “investment company” required to be registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (an “Investment
Company”).
The
Company is not controlled by an Investment Company.
4. COVENANTS.

Efforts.
The
parties shall use their best efforts to satisfy timely each of the conditions
described in Section 6 and 7 of this Agreement.
b. Form
D; Blue Sky Laws.
The
Company agrees to file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required
under
Regulation D. The Company shall, on or before the Closing Date, take such action
as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary to qualify the Securities
for sale to the Buyers at the applicable 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 each Buyer on or prior to the Closing
Date.
c. Reporting
Status; Eligibility to Use Form S-3, SB-2 or Form S-1. The
Company’s Common Stock is registered under [Section 12(g)] of the 1934 Act. The
Company represents and warrants that it meets the requirements for the use
of
Form S-3 (or if the Company is not eligible for the use of Form S-3 as of the
Filing Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), the Company
may
use the form of registration for which it is eligible at that time) for
registration of the sale by the Buyer of the Registrable Securities (as defined
in the Registration Rights Agreement). So long as the Buyer beneficially owns
any of the Securities, the Company shall timely file all reports required to
be
filed with the SEC pursuant to the 1934 Act, and the Company shall not terminate
its status as an issuer required to file reports under the 1934 Act even if
the
1934 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would permit such termination.
The Company further agrees to file all reports required to be filed by the
Company with the SEC in a timely manner so as to become eligible, and thereafter
to maintain its eligibility, for the use of Form S-3.
10
d. Use
of Proceeds.
The
Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Units in the manner
set
forth in Schedule
4(d)
attached
hereto.
e. Authorization
and Reservation of Shares.
The
Company shall at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of
issuance, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the
full
exercise of the outstanding Warrants and issuance of the Warrant Shares in
connection therewith (based on the Exercise Price of the Warrants in effect
from
time to time). The Company shall not reduce the number of shares of Common
Stock
reserved for issuance upon exercise of the Warrants without the consent of
each
Buyer. The Company shall at all times maintain the number of shares of Common
Stock so reserved for issuance at an amount (“Reserved
Amount”)
equal
to no less than (1.5) times the number that is then actually issuable upon
full
exercise of the Warrants and the Additional Warrants (based on the Exercise
Price of the Warrants in effect from time to time). If at any time the number
of
shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance (“Authorized
and Reserved Shares”)
is
below the Reserved Amount, the Company will promptly take all corporate action
necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares, including,
without limitation, calling a special meeting of shareholders to authorize
additional shares to meet the Company’s obligations under this Section 4(h), in
the case of an insufficient number of authorized shares, obtain shareholder
approval of an increase in such authorized number of shares, and voting the
management shares of the Company in favor of an increase in the authorized
shares of the Company to ensure that the number of authorized shares is
sufficient to meet the Reserved Amount.
5. TRANSFER
AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.
The
Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent to issue
certificates, registered in the name of each Buyer or its nominee, for the
Warrant Shares in such amounts as specified from time to time by each Buyer
to
the Company upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with the terms thereof
(the “Irrevocable
Transfer Agent Instructions”).
Prior
to registration of the Warrant Shares under the 1933 Act or the date on which
the Warrant Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction
as
to the number of Securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately
sold, all such certificates shall bear the restrictive legend specified in
Section 2(g) of this Agreement. The Company warrants that no instruction other
than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section
5,
and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 2(f) hereof (in the
case of the Warrant Shares, prior to registration of the Warrant Shares under
the 1933 Act or the date on which the Warrant Shares may be sold pursuant to
Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of Securities as of a
particular date that can then be immediately sold), will be given by the Company
to its transfer agent and that the Securities shall otherwise be freely
transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent
provided in this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement. Nothing in
this Section shall affect in any way the Buyer’s obligations and agreement set
forth in Section 2(g) hereof to comply with all applicable prospectus delivery
requirements, if any, upon re-sale of the Securities. If a Buyer provides the
Company with (i) an opinion of counsel in form, substance and scope customary
for opinions in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or
transfer of such Securities may be made without registration under the 1933
Act
and such sale or transfer is effected or (ii) the Buyer provides reasonable
assurances that the Securities can be sold pursuant to Rule 144, the Company
shall permit the transfer, and, in the case of the Warrant Shares, promptly
instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates, free from
restrictive legend, in such name and in such denominations as specified by
such
Buyer. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder
will cause irreparable harm to the Buyers, by vitiating the intent and purpose
of the transactions contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges
that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 5
may
be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by
the
Company of the provisions of this Section, that the Buyers shall be entitled,
in
addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any
breach and requiring immediate transfer, without the necessity of showing
economic loss and without any bond or other security being
required.
