Ladies
and Gentlemen:
1. Subscription for Shares and
Warrants. The undersigned, intending to be legally bound,
hereby irrevocably applies to purchase from Xedar Corporation, a Colorado
corporation (the “Company”), that number of shares of no par value common stock
of the Company (the “Shares”) and warrants for the purchase of shares of no par
value common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $1.00 per share (the
“Warrants”) as indicated below. The Shares and Warrants are each a
“Security” and may be referred to collectively herein as the “Units” or the
“Securities.” The Company is a public company whose no par value
common stock is registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and traded on the OTCBB operated by
NASDAQ under the symbol XDRC.OB. However, neither the Shares nor the
Warrants to be issued in this offering shall be registered pursuant to a
registration statement filed with the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”), and the securities to be issued in this offering shall
be “restricted securities” as that term is defined pursuant to Rule 144(a)(3) of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). This subscription
is submitted to the Company in accordance with and subject to the terms and
conditions described herein and in the exhibits, schedules, and attachments
hereto, and the information incorporated herein by reference, including, but not
limited to the “Risk Factors” attached hereto as Exhibit
A, the Investor Qualification Certificate attached hereto as Exhibit
B, and the form of Warrant attached hereto as Exhibit
C (collectively, the
“Subscription Documents”). Capitalized terms not defined herein shall
have the meaning given them in the Subscription Documents. The
signature of the undersigned below constitutes the execution of this
Subscription Agreement.
Exhibit
99.1 Page 1
2. Amount and Method of
Payment. The undersigned encloses herewith the consideration (“Purchase
Price”) required to purchase the Securities subscribed for
hereunder. Payment of the Purchase Price is being made by delivery to
the Company for deposit into the Escrow Account (as defined below) of cash or

Purchase Price for the Securities will be deposited into an interest-bearing
account to be maintained by a bank or other financial institution selected by
the Company (the “Escrow Agent”) for the benefit of the subscribers (the “Escrow
Account”). Unless, on or before December 15, 2008, there are cleared funds in
the amount of $1,500,000.00 on deposit in the Escrow Account, all funds in the
Escrow Account will be returned to the subscribers without deduction and with
interest. Upon closing of the Offering, all funds in the Escrow Account,
including interest thereon, less offering expenses, shall be distributed to the
Company as proceeds of the Offering. The Purchase Price for the Units
(i.e., for (i) one Share and (ii) one Warrant to purchase one Share, subject to
the terms and conditions of the Warrant) is $0.50 per Unit.
3. Description of the
Offering. The Company is a Colorado corporation, whose no par

Security, the Department of Defense and other national intelligence agencies, as
well as commercial clients. The Company is offering hereby a minimum
of One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000.00) (“Minimum”) of
Units for a purchase price of $0.50 per Unit. The Units are being offered by the
Company on a “best efforts, minimum or none” basis.
If on or
before December 15, 2008, there are cleared funds (not including interest) in an
amount equal to the Minimum on deposit in the Escrow Account, the Company may
close the Offering (the “Closing”) on such date as it shall choose (the “Closing
Date”) and all funds in the Escrow Account, less offering expenses, shall be
disbursed by the Escrow Agent to the Company or pursuant to the written closing
directions of the Company.
If the
Closing has not occurred prior to December 15, 2008, then unless on December 15,
2008, there are cleared funds (not including interest) in an amount equal to the
Minimum on deposit in the Escrow Account, all funds in the Escrow Account will
be returned to the subscribers without deduction and with interest.
The
Warrants to be issued in connection with the Offering shall have a term of five
(5) years from and after the closing date and shall entitle the holder thereof,
upon exercise, to purchase one share of the Company no par value common stock at

relied upon as a promise or representation of the future performance of the

5. Restriction on Resale or
Transfer. The undersigned will not sell or otherwise transfer
the Securities, without registration under the Act or an exemption therefrom,
and fully understands and agrees that the undersigned must bear the economic
risk of the purchase for an indefinite period of time because, among other

or otherwise disposed of unless they are subsequently registered under the Act
and under the applicable securities laws of such states or unless an exemption
from such registration is available. The undersigned understands that
the Company is under no obligation to register the Securities on the

undersigned seeking to transfer his/her/its Securities must: (i) submit a letter
from counsel, stating that such transfer complies with the requirements of
Section 4(1) of the Act or other exemption; and (ii) provide the Company with an
endorsement on the original participation certificate identifying the
assignee. The undersigned shall cause each document to conform to any
and all comments from the Company, or its attorneys. In
the event that the Company determines, in its sole and absolute discretion after
consultation with counsel, that such transfer does not meet an applicable
exemption or that the intended assignee is not an accredited investor, the
requested transfer may be rejected. The undersigned and the intended
assignee shall indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any claim, suit, and
cause, cause of action, damage, loss, penalty or fine arising out of any
transfer.

RISK
FACTORS
INVESTMENT
IN THE SECURITIES CARRIES A SIGNIFICANT DEGREE OF RISK. THIS
INVESTMENT IS SUITABLE AS AN INVESTMENT ONLY IF YOU HAVE ADEQUATE FINANCIAL
MEANS AND NO NEED FOR LIQUIDITY WITH RESPECT TO YOUR INVESTMENT. AN
INVESTMENT IN THE SECURITIES IS NOT SUITABLE FOR YOU IF YOU WOULD RELY ON THIS
INVESTMENT FOR REGULAR UNINTERRUPTED MONTHLY INCOME. AN INVESTMENT IN
THE SECURITIES ALSO MAY BE UNSUITABLE FOR RETIREMENT PLANS WHICH ARE NOT
SELF-DIRECTED BY PLAN BENEFICIARIES ABLE TO ADEQUATELY EVALUATE THE RISK OF THIS
INVESTMENT. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT YOU MAY LOSE YOUR ENTIRE INVESTMENT
AND IT IS POSSIBLE THAT YOU MAY HAVE TO SPEND ADDITIONAL FUNDS TO PROTECT YOUR
INVESTMENT. IN CONSIDERING WHETHER TO INVEST IN THE SECURITIES, YOU
SHOULD EVALUATE THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS:
Investment
Risks
No Registration; Limited
Governmental Review. The Securities have not been registered
with or reviewed by the SEC or any state securities agency, no such registration
or review is contemplated, and neither the SEC nor any state securities agency
has passed on or approved the adequacy or accuracy of the contents of this
Subscription Agreement. The undersigned understands that the Company
is under no obligation to register the Securities on the undersigned’s behalf or
to assist the undersigned in complying with any exemption from registration
under the Act.
Limited
Liquidity. The Company’s stock has limited trading volume on
the OTCBB and is not listed on a national exchange. Such limited
trading volume provides a limited
liquidity in the market for the Company’s
Shares. As a result, stockholders may be unable to liquidate any substantial
amount of the Company’s Shares at any particular time or at
all. Moreover, the Securities to be issued in this Offering are
“restricted securities” and therefore subject to the resale restrictions set
forth in Rule 144 of the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC under the
Act. These factors could adversely affect the liquidity, trading volume, price
and transferability of the Company’s Shares.
Proceeds of the
Offering Will be Used to Repay Certain Existing
Indebtedness. The Company intends to use the proceeds of this
Offering for working capital needs and for general corporate purposes,
including, but not limited to (a) funding future acquisitions in accordance with
the Company’s acquisition strategy, and (b) funding, in part or in full, the
repayment of existing indebtedness, which may include repayment of certain
loans, in an initial principal amount of $2,800,000.00, made to the Company by
Xxxx X. Xxxxxxxxxx, III, the Company’s President and CEO. Further,
the amounts and uses of proceeds discussed herein are estimates and cannot be
precisely forecasted and the actual application may vary from that
described. Any variation in the actual application of funds will be
made in the sole discretion of the Company and the Company gives no assurance
that the proceeds from the Offering will be used as estimated.
Exhibit
99.1 A - 1
High Degree of
Risk. Investment in the Securities entails a high degree of
risk and by investing, each investor assumes the risk of losing his entire
investment in the Securities. Accordingly, only prospective investors
who are able to bear the loss of their entire investment, and who otherwise meet
the investor suitability standards set forth in the Investor Qualification
Certificate, should consider purchasing the Securities.
Investors Not Independently
Represented. The Company has not retained independent counsel
for prospective investors in this offering. Attorneys assisting in
the preparation of this Subscription Agreement have represented only the
Company. Each potential investor is therefore urged to consult his or
her own counsel as to the terms and provisions of the Offering (including the
Securities) and all other documents related to the Offering.
Offering Price
Determination. The offering price of the Securities was not
based on any projected earnings and does not represent that the Securities have
a market value equal to its offering price. The offering price of the
Securities has been determined by the Company based on various factors,
including, but not limited to, the recent market prices of the Company’s common
stock as traded on the OTCBB, the capital needs of the Company, the expenses of
the Offering, and other related matters. Each prospective investor
should make an independent evaluation of the fairness of such price under all
the circumstances.
There is No Commitment to Purchase
the Securities Being Offered. The Company is selling the
Securities on a “best efforts, minimum or none” basis. No person has any binding
obligation to purchase all or any portion of the Securities, and the Company can
give no assurance that any of the Securities will be sold. Investors
will not have the right to cancel their subscription or to request the return of
their funds during the term of this offering.
Business
Risks
Significant
Losses. The Company’s operations have generated significant
losses, which may continue. The Company’s operations generated a loss of
$4,367,000 and $610,000 in the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006,
respectively. The Company may not be able to reverse this trend,
increase revenue, or cut cost to a sufficient extent to avoid losses in future
periods. This is because:

The
Company depends on database content obtained through agreements with third
parties, and the failure to maintain these agreements could result in the
elimination of some products, or more expensive data collection
alternatives.

The
Company’s financial results could weaken if the Company cannot
consistently obtain customer renewal of database subscriptions or product
maintenance agreements.

In
2007, 36% of the Company’s total revenue was generated by sales to the
Company’s two largest customers pursuant to contracts that may be
terminated or are subject to renewal at the election of such
customers. Termination of such contracts would eliminate a
substantial portion of the revenue generated by the Company’s consulting
segment.

The
Company’s growth strategy may prove
unsuccessful.

The
Company may be unable to identify potential acquirees, complete
acquisitions, or integrate acquisitions into the Company’s
operations.

The
Company is affected by conditions and trends in the Company’s targeted
industries, which may inhibit the Company’s ability to grow or otherwise

business.

The
federal government has substantially reduced its spending in order to

Exhibit
99.1 A - 3
Each of the above matters
is discussed in more depth below.
The Company depends on database
content obtained through agreements with third parties, and the failure to
maintain these agreements could result in the elimination of some products, or
more expensive data collection alternatives. A significant
proportion of the content the Company uses in its database products is obtained
from either commercial or government entities under licensing agreements or
requests under the Freedom of Information Act. In particular,
information obtained from government entities cannot be obtained
elsewhere. If the government entities restrict or withdraw their
content from the Company, some of the Company’s products would be cancelled,
which would result in the elimination of up to $586,000 of recurring
revenue.
The Company’s financial results
could weaken if the Company cannot consistently obtain customer renewal of
database subscriptions or product maintenance agreements. In
2007, the Company obtained approximately 12% of the Company’s revenue from
subscriptions to the Company’s database products. The Company’s
results depend on the Company’s ability to achieve and sustain high annual
renewal rates on existing subscriptions and to enter into new subscription
arrangements on commercially acceptable terms. A 1% decline in
subscription renewal rates equates to an annual revenue reduction of about
$14,000.
In 2007, the Company generated
36% of the Company’s total revenue by sales to the Company’s two largest
customers pursuant to contracts that may be terminated or are subject to renewal
at the election of such customers. Termination of such contracts
would eliminate a substantial portion of the revenue generated by the Company’s
consulting segment. While the Company have a diverse customer
base that includes many large companies and government entities, the Company’s
two largest customers generated 36% of the Company’s total revenue in
2007. These customers are BearingPoint and one of the
intelligence agencies. The Company’s contracts with them are subject
to an annual renewal provision.
Exhibit
99.1 A - 4
The
following risks are inherent in government contracts:
·
|
Because
federal laws permit government agencies to terminate a contract for
convenience, the Company’s government clients may terminate or decide not
to renew the Company’s contracts with little or no prior
notice.
|
·
|
Government
clients may audit contract payments the Company receives for several years
after these payments are made. Based on these audits, the clients may
adjust or demand repayment of payments the Company has previously
received. None of the audits performed to date on the Company’s
government contracts have resulted in any significant adjustments to the
Company’s financial statements. It is possible, however, that
an audit in the future could have an adverse effect on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements.
|
·
|
Government
contract regulations provide that any company convicted of a crime or
indicted on a violation of statutes related to federal contracting may
lose its right to receive future contract awards or
extensions.
|
·
|
The
Company’s ability to earn revenue from the Company’s existing and future
U.S. federal government projects will depend upon the availability of
funding from U.S. federal government agencies. The Company cannot control
whether those clients will fund or continue funding the Company’s
outstanding projects.
|
·
|
The
Company’s ability to secure new government contracts and the Company’s
revenue from existing government contracts could be adversely affected by
any one or a combination of the factors listed
above.
|
The Company’s growth strategy may
prove unsuccessful. The Company’s growth strategy involves
broadening the Company’s database product line, as well as expanding the range
of geographic information systems services offerings, and increasing the
Company’s penetration into the federal government system security
market. Land databases are difficult to acquire and make commercially
viable, while the addition of new geographical information systems services are
highly dependent on the Company’s ability to acquire other
companies. Further, increased penetration into the systems security
market requires the addition of experienced sales employees, who are difficult
to acquire and retain. If the Company is unable to surmount these
issues, the Company’s operating performance, including the Company’s ability to
generate additional revenue on a profitable basis, may be adversely
affected.
The Company may be unable to
identify potential acquirees, complete acquisitions, or integrate acquisitions
into the Company’s operations. The Company intends to
selectively pursue acquisitions to complement the Company’s internal
growth. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
identify suitable candidates for successful acquisitions at acceptable
prices. In addition, the Company’s ability to achieve the expected
returns and synergies from the Company’s past and future acquisitions depends
substantially on the Company’s ability to integrate the offerings, technology,
administrative functions, and personnel of these businesses into the Company’s
business in an efficient and effective manner. The Company can
provide no assurance that it will be successful in integrating acquired
businesses or that acquired businesses will perform at anticipated
levels. In addition, the Company’s past and future acquisitions may
subject the Company to unanticipated risks or liabilities or disrupt the
Company’s operations and divert management’s attention from day-to-day
operations.
Exhibit
99.1 A - 5
The Company is affected by
conditions and trends in the Company’s targeted industries, which may inhibit
the Company’s ability to grow or otherwise adversely affect the Company’s
business. The Company derives substantially all of its revenue
from customers in the oil and gas industry and the federal
government. As a result, the Company’s business, financial condition,
and results of operations depend upon conditions and trends affecting these
industries generally. For example, there is an ongoing consolidation
trend in the oil and gas industry that has resulted in a reduction of many
database subscriptions as the Company’s subscribers combine their
operations. Also, the federal government has substantially reduced
its spending in order to channel funding into various war efforts, resulting in
funding reductions on several system security projects. Thus, if
continued, these trends could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s
business. A failure to maintain revenue and margins would have a
material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, and
operating results.
The federal government has
substantially reduced its spending in order to channel funding into various war
efforts, resulting in funding reductions on several system security
projects. The federal government has repeatedly shifted
funding out of its established programs to fund its various war
efforts. These funding reductions have repeatedly reduced the budgets
of several system security projects in which the Company’s staff were
involved. If the war effort continues, the Company can expect to see
reduced staffing levels on many federal projects in which the Company is
involved, as well as the risk of outright program
cancellation. Continued funding reductions may reduce or eliminate
the revenue generated by the Company’s FuGEN and Atlantic subsidiaries, which
derive much of their business from the federal government
The loss of key personnel could
impair the Company’s future success. The Company’s future success depends
in part on the continued service of the Company’s executive officers and other
key management, sales, consulting, and operations personnel and on the Company’s
ability to continue to attract, motivate, and retain additional highly qualified
employees. The loss of the services of one or more of the Company’s
key personnel, officers or directors, or the Company’s inability to recruit
replacements for such personnel or to otherwise attract, motivate, or retain
qualified personnel could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business,
operating results, and financial condition.
The Company operates in competitive
markets, which may adversely affect the Company’s market share and financial
results. The Company’s competitors have significant financial and
information-gathering resources, recognized brands, technological expertise, and
market experience. These competitors are continuously enhancing their
products and services, developing new products and services, and investing in
technology to better serve the needs of their existing customers and to attract
new customers.
Exhibit
99.1 A - 6
The
Company’s land database products compete with offerings from InfoPipe Inc.,
Divestco Inc. and WhiteStar, Inc. In addition, the federal government
itself can be considered a competitor, since it is making an increasing amount
of land data available to the public via the Internet and other
means. The Company’s consulting segment competes against a number of
companies, and has subcontracted with several of them. Competitors
include CACI, CSC, SAIC, STG, Inc., ITS Services, NCI Information Services and
Xxxxxxx Associates.
The
Company may also face competition from organizations and businesses that have
not traditionally competed with the Company but that could adapt their products
and services to meet the demands of the Company’s
customers. Increased competition may require that the Company reduce
the prices of the Company’s offerings or make additional capital investments,
which could adversely affect the Company’s margins. If the Company is
unable or unwilling to do so, the Company may lose market share in the Company’s
target markets and the Company’s financial results may be adversely
affected.
The Company expects to continue
amortizing intangible assets associated with existing acquisitions for the next
five to eight years. As part of the Company’s acquisition
activities, the Company has allocated a significant proportion of the
acquisition purchase prices to such intangible assets as customer relationships,
non-compete agreements, trade names, and customer contracts. The
Company is amortizing the bulk of these assets over the next five to eight
years. During that time, the amortization expense will be enough to
offset the Company’s probable operating profits.
The Company could experience system
failures, which could interrupt customer access to the Company’s Internet site,
shut down various databases linked to the Company’s Internet site, or prevent
the Company from distributing information to the Company’s customers by other
means. The Company’s ability to protect the Company’s data
center against damage from fire, power loss, telecommunications failure, or
other disasters is critical. Any delays or failures in the Company’s
systems or errors in the technology that the Company uses to store and deliver
content to the Company’s customers would harm the Company’s
business. The growth of the Company’s customer base may also strain
the Company’s systems in the future. In addition, the Company’s
products could be affected by failures of third-party technology used in the
Company’s products and internet site, and the Company may have no control over
remedying such failures. Any failures or problems with the Company’s
systems could force the Company to incur significant costs to remedy such
failures or problems, decrease customer demand for the Company’s products,
tarnish the Company’s reputation, and harm the Company’s business.
Exhibit
99.1 A - 7
Shares eligible for future sale
could depress the price of the Company’s shares. Sales of
substantial amounts of the Company’s common stock in the public market, or the
perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price
of the Company’s shares. As of August 22, 2008, the Company had
26,186,646 shares of common stock outstanding. Any sales of
common stock by the Company or the Company’s principal stockholders, or the
perception that such sales might occur, could have a material adverse effect on
the price of the Company’s shares.
The price of the Company’s common
stock may be volatile and may be affected by market conditions beyond the
Company’s control. The Company’s share price is likely to
fluctuate in the future because of the volatility of the stock market in general
and a variety of factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control,
including:
·
|
Quarterly
variations in actual or anticipated results of
operations;
|
·
|
Changes
in financial estimates by securities
analysts;
|
·
|
Actions
or announcements by the Company or the Company’s
competitors;
|
·
|
Regulatory
actions;
|
·
|
Litigation;
|
·
|
Loss
or gain of major customers or content
providers;
|
·
|
Additions
or departures of key personnel; and
|
·
|
Future
sales of the Company’s common
stock.
|
Market
fluctuations could result in volatility in the price of the Company’s common
stock, which could cause a decline in the value of your
investment. In addition, if the Company’s operating results fail to
meet the expectations of stock analysts or investors, the Company may experience
an immediate and significant decline in the trading price of the Company’s
common stock.
The Company’s directors, executive
officers and affiliates will continue to exert significant control over the
Company’s future direction, which could reduce the Company’s sale
value. Members of the Company’s Board of Directors and the
Company’s executive officers, together with their affiliates, own a significant
number of shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Accordingly, these
stockholders, if they act together, will be able to effectively control all
matters requiring approval of the Company’s stockholders, including the election
of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. The
concentration of ownership, which could result in a continued concentration of
representation on the Company’s Board of Directors, may delay, prevent or deter
a change in control and could deprive the Company’s stockholders of an
opportunity to receive a premium for their common stock as part of a sale of the
Company’s assets.
Investors should not anticipate
receiving cash dividends on the Company’s common stock. The
Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends or distributions on the
Company’s common stock and intend to retain future earnings, if any, to support
the Company’s operations and to finance expansion. Therefore, the Company does
not anticipate paying any cash dividends on the common stock in the foreseeable
future.
Exhibit
99.1 A - 8
Federal
Income Tax Risks
General. There are
significant federal income tax risks involved in an investment in the
Securities. An unfavorable outcome with respect to any tax risk may
have an adverse effect on an investment in the Company, and changing tax
regulations could result in higher than anticipated future tax
liabilities. Each
prospective investor is urged to review and discuss with his own tax advisors
the tax consequences to him of an investment in the
Securities.

CORPORATION
(A
corporation existing under the laws of the State of Colorado)
This is
to certify that, for value received, l (the “Holder”), shall have the right to
purchase from XeDAR Corporation (the “Company”), at any
time and from time to time up to 5:00 p.m. (Denver time) on
____________ ____, _______ (the “Expiry
Time”), one fully
paid and non-assessable common share of the Company (a “Common Stock”) for
each Warrant (individually, a “Warrant”) represented
hereby at a price of $1.00 per share of Common Stock (the “Exercise
Price”), upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein.
Section
1. Definitions. Capitalized
terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in
that certain Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription
Agreement”), concerning an equity raise of not less than $1,500,000.00
among the Company and the purchasers signatory thereto.
Exzhibit
99.1 C - 1
Section
2. Exercise.
a) Exercise of
Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this
Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the
date of issuance of this Warrant and on or before the Expiry Time by delivery to
the principal office of the Company of a duly executed copy of the Notice of
Exercise Form annexed hereto (or to such other office or agency of the Company
as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address
of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company); provided, however, within three
(3) trading days from the date said Notice of Exercise is delivered to the
Company, if this Warrant is exercised in full, the Holder shall have surrendered
this Warrant to the Company and the Company shall have
received payment of the aggregate Exercise Price of the shares
thereby purchased by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States
bank. The Holder shall be required to physically surrender this
Warrant to the Company upon purchase of the Warrant Shares available
hereunder. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases
of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall
have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable
hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares
purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing
the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such
purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of
Exercise Form within three (3) trading days of receipt of such notice.
Nevertheless, the Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant,
acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph,
following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number
of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less
than the amount stated on the face hereof.
b) Exercise
Price. The exercise price of the Common Stock under this
Warrant shall be $1.00, subject to adjustment hereunder.
Exzhibit
99.1 C - 2
c) Mechanics of
Exercise.
i. Authorization of Warrant
Shares. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which
may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this
Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant
and payment to the Company of the purchase price therefor, be duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and
charges in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any
transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).
ii. Delivery of Certificates
Upon Exercise. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder
shall be transmitted by the transfer agent of the Company to the Holder by
crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with the Depository Trust
Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system if the
Company is a participant in such system, and otherwise by physical delivery to
the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise within three (3)
Trading Days from the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise Form,
surrender of this Warrant (if required) and payment of the
aggregate Exercise Price (“Warrant Share Delivery
Date”). This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised on
the date the Exercise Price is received by the Company. The Warrant
Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other person so
designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record
of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised
by payment to the Company of the Exercise Price, and all taxes required to be
paid by the Holder, pursuant to Section 2(c)(vi), if any, prior to the issuance
of such shares, have been paid irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are
credited to the Holder’s DWAC account, or the date of delivery of certificates
evidencing the Warrant Shares, as the case may be.
iii. Delivery of New Warrants
Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in
part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this
Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates
representing Warrant Shares, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the
rights of Holder to purchase the un-purchased Warrant Shares called for by this
Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this
Warrant.
Exzhibit
99.1 C - 3
iv. Rescission
Rights. If the Company fails to cause its transfer agent to
transmit to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Warrant
Shares pursuant to this Section 2(d)(iv) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date,
then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.
v. No Fractional Shares or
Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional
shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any
fraction of a share that Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon
such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final
fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise
Price.
vi. Charges, Taxes and
Expenses. Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be
made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other
incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which
taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be
issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by
the Holder; provided, however, that in the
event certificates for Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the
name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be
accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder;
and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum
sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
vii. Closing of
Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or
records in any manner that prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant,
pursuant to the terms hereof.
d) The
Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the
terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or
inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect
to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any
action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation
or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other
Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of
law by the Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other
circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the
Holder in connection with the issuance of Warrant Shares. Nothing
herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it
hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of
specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s
failure to timely deliver the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as
required pursuant to the terms hereof.

Section
4. Certain
Adjustments.
a) Stock Dividends and
Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding:
(A) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on
shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities
payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not
include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to this
Warrant or other warrants of the Company), (B) subdivides outstanding shares of
Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (C) combines (including by way of
reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of
shares, or (D) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any
shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price
shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of
shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding
immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the
number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately
adjusted. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4(a) shall
become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of
stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become
effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision,
combination or re-classification.
b) Fundamental
Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (A) the
Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another
Person, (B) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its
assets in one or a series of related transactions, (C) any tender offer or
exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant
to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their
shares for other securities, cash or property, or (D) 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 (in any such case, a “Fundamental
Transaction”), then immediately prior to the closing of the Fundamental
Transaction, and without any action on the part of the Holder hereof, and to the
extent not exercised prior to the closing of such Fundamental Transaction, this
Warrant shall automatically convert into a right to receive that number of
shares of the Company's Common Stock equal to (i) the positive difference, if
any, between the per share dollar value of the Company's Common Stock as valued
in the Fundamental Transaction less (ii) the per share
Exercise Price of this Warrant, all multiplied by (iii) the
Number of Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate (the "Fundamental
Transaction Warrant Shares"), without payment of any Exercise Price by Holder,
such that upon the closing of such Fundamental Transaction, the Holder shall
receive such consideration (be it cash, securities, or otherwise) with respect
to the Fundamental Transaction Warrant Shares as if Holder had exercised this
Warrant in exchange for that number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of
Fundamental Transaction Warrant Shares, calculated as specified above,
immediately prior to the closing of the Fundamental Transaction. Upon
closing of the Fundamental Transaction, Holder shall be entitled to receive only
the consideration specified in this Section 4(b), and upon payment of such
consideration, this Warrant shall be deemed terminated and
canceled.

99.1 C - 5
c) Calculations. All
calculations under this Section 4 shall be made to the nearest cent or the
nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 4,
the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a
given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding
treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.
d) Voluntary Adjustment by
Company. The Company may at any time during the term of this Warrant
reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time
deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors of the Company.
e) Notice to
Holders.
i. Adjustment to Exercise
Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to this Section
4, the Company shall promptly mail to each Holder a notice setting forth the
Exercise Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the
facts requiring such adjustment.
ii. Notice to Allow Exercise by
Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other
distribution) on the Common Stock; (B) the Company shall declare a special
nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock; (C) the
Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights
or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any
class or of any rights; (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company
shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock,
any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or
transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, of any
compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other
securities, cash or property; (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or
involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the
Company; then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be mailed to the Holder
at its last address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company,
at least 10 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date
hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be
taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or
warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of
the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions,
redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which
such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange
is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is
expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to
exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property
deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or
share exchange; provided, in each case that such information shall
be

made
known to the public through a press release, filing with the Commission, or
other public announcement prior to or in conjunction with such notice being
provided to the Holder, and provided further that the failure to mail such
notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the
validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such
notice. The Holder is entitled to exercise this Warrant during the
10-day period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the
event triggering such notice.
Section
5. Transfer of
Warrant.
a) Transferability. This
Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon
compliance with applicable securities laws, both state and federal, and upon
surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company, together with
a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto
duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay
any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon
such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and
deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and
in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment,
and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this
Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be
cancelled. A Warrant, if properly assigned, may be exercised by a new
holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant
issued.
b) New Warrants. This
Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof
at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice
specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued,
signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance
with Section 5(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or
combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in
exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance
with such notice.
c) Warrant Register. The
Company shall record this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company
for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”),
in the name of the record Holder hereof 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.

99.1 C - 7
Section
6. Miscellaneous.
a) Title to
Warrant. Prior to the Expiry Time and subject to compliance
with applicable laws and Section 5 of this Warrant, this Warrant and all rights
hereunder are transferable, upon compliance with applicable securities laws, in
whole or in part, at the office or agency of the Company by the Holder in person
or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant together with the
Assignment Form annexed hereto properly endorsed.
b) No Rights as Shareholder
Until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to
any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company prior to the
exercise hereof. Upon the surrender of this Warrant and the payment
of the aggregate Exercise Price, the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be and be
deemed to be issued to such Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the
close of business on the later of the date of such surrender or
payment.
c) Loss, Theft, Destruction or
Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the
Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to
the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or
security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall
not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of
such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and
deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such
cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.
d) Saturdays, Sundays,
Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of
any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall be a
Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday, then such action may be taken or such right
may be exercised on the next succeeding day not a Saturday, Sunday or legal
holiday.
e) Authorized
Shares. The Company covenants that during the period the
Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common
Stock an amount of shares equal to the number of shares necessary to provide for
the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights
under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance
of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged
with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary
certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights
under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action
as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided
herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any
requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be
listed.

Except
and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company hereby
covenants to not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its
certificate of incorporation, bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of
assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any
other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of
any of the terms of this Warrant, and will at all times in good faith assist in
the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may
be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this
Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Company will (a) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares
above the Exercise Price then in effect, (b) take all such action as may be
necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue
fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant,
and (c) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations,
exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction
thereof as may be necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations
under this Warrant.
Before
taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant
Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the
Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents
thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having
jurisdiction thereof.
f) Jurisdiction. All
questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the
Subscription Agreement.
g) Restrictions. The
Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this
Warrant, if not registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state
and federal securities laws.
h) Nonwaiver. No
course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the
part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice
Holder’s rights, powers or remedies, notwithstanding the fact that all rights
hereunder terminate on the Expiry Time.
i) Notices. Any
notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered
to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance with the notice
provisions of the Subscription Agreement.
j) Limitation of
Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any
affirmative action by Holder to exercise this Warrant or purchase Warrant
Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of Holder, shall
give rise to any liability of Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock
or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the
Company or by creditors of the Company.
Exzhibit
99.1 C - 9
k) Remedies. The
remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all
other remedies available or granted by law, including recovery of damages, will
be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this
Warrant.
l) Successors and
Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant
and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of
and be binding upon the successors of the Company and the successors and
permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are
intended to be for the benefit of all Holders from time to time of this Warrant
and shall be enforceable by any such Holder or holder of Warrant
Shares.
m) Amendment. This
Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the
written consent of the Company and the Holder.
n) Severability. Wherever
possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as
to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this
Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision
shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of
this Warrant.
o) Headings. The
headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and
shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.
