on or before the Closing:
4.1 Accuracy of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of
the Purchasers contained in Section 3 shall be true on and as of the Closing Date with the same
effect as though such representations and warranties had been made on and as of that date (except
that any representation or warranty expressly stated to have been made or given as of a specific
date need be true only as of such date).
5. Covenants of the Company.
5.1 Piggyback Registration Rights. If at any time the Company shall determine to
register under the Securities Act any of its securities (other than on Form S-8 or Form S-4 or
their then equivalents and other than shares to be issued solely (i) in connection with any
acquisition of any entity or business (ii) upon the exercise of stock options, or (iii) pursuant to
employee benefit plans), it shall send to each holder of Registrable Shares (as defined below),
including each holder who has the right to acquire Registrable Shares, written notice of such
determination and, if within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, such holder shall so
request in writing, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in such
registration statement all or any part of the Registrable Shares such holder requests to be
registered therein; provided that, if, in connection with any offering involving an underwriting of
Common Stock to be issued by the Company, the managing underwriter shall prohibit the inclusion of
shares of Common Stock by selling holders in such registration statement or shall impose a
limitation on the number of shares of such Common Stock which may be included in any such
registration statement because, in its judgment, such limitation is necessary to effect an orderly
public distribution, and such limitation is imposed pro rata with respect to all securities whose
holders have a contractual, incidental (“piggyback”) right to include such securities in the
registration statement and as to which inclusion has been requested pursuant to such right and
there is first excluded from such registration statement all shares of Common Stock sought to be
included therein by (i) any holder thereof not having any such contractual, incidental registration
rights, and (ii) any holder thereof having contractual, incidental registration rights subordinate
and junior to the rights of the holders of Registrable Shares, the Company shall then be obligated
to include in such registration statement only such limited portion (which may be none) of the
Registrable Shares with respect to which such holder has requested inclusion hereunder.
“Registrable Shares” means the shares of Common Stock sold in the Offering; provided, however, that
shares of Common Stock shall cease to be Registrable Shares upon any sale of such shares pursuant
to (i) a registration statement filed under the Securities Act, or (ii) Rule 144 promulgated under
the Securities Act.
5
6. Transfer of Securities. The Purchaser is aware that the Company will make a
notation in its appropriate records and issue “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent
with respect to the restrictions on the transferability of such Securities.
(a) The Purchaser understands that this subscription is not binding upon the Company until the
Company accepts it, which acceptance is at the sole discretion of the Company and is to be
evidenced by the Company’s execution of this Agreement where indicated. This Agreement shall be
null and void if the Company does not accept it as aforesaid. In the event the Company does not
accept the Offering proceeds, the Offering will not be completed and all Offering proceeds will
thereafter be promptly returned to the Purchasers without interest or deduction. The undersigned
understands that the Company may, in its sole discretion, reject this subscription, in whole or in
part, and/or reduce this subscription in any amount and to any extent, whether or not pro rata
reductions are made of any other investor’s subscription.
(b) Subject to applicable state securities laws, the subscription delivered to the Company by
the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement is not subject to revocation by the Purchaser, but may be
rejected by the Company, in whole or in part, in the Company’s sole discretion, in which event the
purchase price and execution copy of this Agreement submitted will be returned (by mail) to the
undersigned without interest or deduction within 15 business days thereafter.
7. The Shares are subject to standard anti-dilution provisions in the event of forward or
reverse stock splits or recapitalizations. For example, if the Company engages in a two for one
reverse stock split, a holder of 100,000 Shares will be affected as follows:
Pre-Split Ownership:
100,000 Shares
Post-Split Ownership:
50,000 Shares
