footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements. Such financial
statements fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the
Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of and for the dates thereof and
the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in

Company stock option plans or agreements. The Company does not have pending
before the Commission any request for confidential treatment of
information.

is no Action which (i) adversely affects or challenges, or could adversely
affect or challenge, the legality, validity or enforceability of any of the

or (ii) except as set forth in the SEC Reports, could, if there were an
unfavorable decision, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth

officer thereof, is or has been the subject of any Action involving a claim of
violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of
breach of fiduciary duty. There has not been, and to the knowledge of
the Company, there is not pending or contemplated, any investigation by the
Commission involving the Company or any current or former director or officer of
the Company. The Commission has not issued any stop order or other
order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement filed by the
Company or any Subsidiary under the Exchange Act or the Securities
Act.
(k) Patents and
Trademarks. The Company and the Subsidiaries have, or have
rights to use, all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark
applications, service marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and other similar
rights that are necessary or material for use in connection with their
respective businesses (as described in the SEC Reports or otherwise) and which
the failure to so have could, individually or in the aggregate, have or
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect (collectively, the
“Intellectual Property Rights”). Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary has received a written notice that the Intellectual Property Rights
used by the Company or any Subsidiary violates or infringes upon the rights of
any Person. Except as set forth in the SEC Reports, to the knowledge
of the Company, all such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable and there

partner or similar.

Persons for fees of a type contemplated in this Section 3.1(m) that may be

to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting
(as such term is defined in the Exchange Act) since the last-filed SEC

notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others
any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any
agreement, indenture or instrument to which such Investor is a party, or
(iii) assuming the accuracy of the Company’s representations in

judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws) applicable to

5.4 Amendments;
Waivers. No provision of this Agreement may be waived or
amended except in a written instrument signed by the Company and the Investor or
Investors holding no less than 75% of the outstanding Preferred Shares or, in
the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such waived
provision is sought. No waiver of any default with respect to any
provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a
continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a
waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any
delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner
impair the exercise of any such right.
5.5 Construction. The
headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this
Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions
hereof. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the
language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of
strict construction will be applied against any party. This Agreement
shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or
burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the
authorship of any provisions of this Agreement or any of the Transaction
Documents.
5.6 Successors and
Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted
assigns. The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Investors holding no

or all of such Investor’s rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom such
Investor assigns or transfers any Securities, provided such transferee agrees in
writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred Securities, by the
provisions hereof that apply to the “Investors.”
19
5.7 No Third-Party
Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of
the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is
not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other
Person.
5.8 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 and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a
party hereto or its respective Affiliates, employees or agents) may be commenced
exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of
New York, Borough of Manhattan (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 (including with respect to the enforcement of any of
the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to
assert in any Proceeding, any claim that such party is not personally subject to
the jurisdiction of any such 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 such party 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. If any party shall commence a Proceeding to enforce any
provisions of a Transaction Document, then the prevailing party in such
Proceeding shall be reimbursed by the non-prevailing party for the prevailing
party’s attorney’s fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the
investigation, preparation and prosecution of such Proceeding.
5.9 Survival. The
representations, warranties, agreements and covenants contained herein shall
survive the Closing and the delivery of the Securities.
5.10
Execution. This
Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken
together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become
effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each
other party, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same
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 or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.
5.11
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.
20
5.12
Rescission and Withdrawal
Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
(and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents,
whenever any Investor 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 Investor 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 such Investor’s future actions and rights.
5.13
Replacement of
Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any
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 of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable
indemnity, if requested. 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 certificate or
instrument. If a replacement certificate or instrument evidencing any
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.
5.14
Remedies. In
addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by
law, including recovery of damages, each of the Investors and the Company will
be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction
Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be
adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of
obligations under the Transaction Documents and hereby agree to waive in any
action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy
at law would be adequate.
5.15
Payment Set
Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or
payments to any Investor pursuant to any Transaction Document or an Investor
enforces or exercises such Investor’s rights thereunder, and such payment or
payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are
subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside,
recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise
restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law
(including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common
law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration
the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be
revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been
made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
21
5.16
Independent Nature of
Investors’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each
Investor under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the
obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be responsible in any
way for the performance of the obligations of any other Investor under any
Transaction Document. The decision of each Investor to purchase
Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Investor
independently of any other Investor. Nothing contained herein or in
any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant
hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership,
an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a
presumption that the Investors 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 Investor acknowledges that no other
Investor has acted as agent for such Investor in connection with making its
investment hereunder and that no Investor will be acting as agent of such
Investor in connection with monitoring its investment in the Securities or
enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents. Each Investor
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 Investor to
be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such
purpose.
5.17
Limitation of
Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
the Company acknowledges and agrees that the liability of an Investor arising
directly or indirectly, under any Transaction Document of any and every nature
whatsoever shall be satisfied solely out of the assets of such Investor, and
that no trustee, officer, other investment vehicle or any other Affiliate of
such Investor or any investor, shareholder or holder of shares of beneficial
interest of such an Investor shall be personally liable for any liabilities of
such Investor.
5.18
WAIVER OF JURY
TRIAL. IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION
BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY, THE PARTIES EACH KNOWINGLY AND
INTENTIONALLY, TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY
ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY, IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY
JURY.
