Each of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has performed in all material respects all of its material obligations with respect to such Permits and no event has occurred that allows, or after notice or lapse of time, would allow, revocation or termination thereof. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any written notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate, authority or permit that, if determined adversely to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(u) Internal Controls. The Company is in material compliance with the provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 currently applicable to the Company. The Company maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient 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 GAAP 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. The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company is made known to the certifying officers by others within those entities. The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by the most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act (such date, the “Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The books, records and accounts of the Company accurately and fairly reflect, in all material respects, the transactions in, and dispositions of, the assets of, and the results of operations of, the Company. The Company maintains and will continue to maintain a standard system of accounting established and administered in accordance with GAAP and the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act.
(v) Independent Accountants. The Company has engaged an independent registered public accounting firm as required by the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.
(w) Regulatory Compliance. The human clinical trials, animal studies and other preclinical tests conducted by the Company or its Subsidiaries or in which the Company or its Subsidiaries have participated or that are described in the SEC Reports or the results of which are referred to in the SEC Reports, and such studies and tests conducted on behalf of the Company or its Subsidiaries, or that the Company or its Subsidiaries currently intend to rely on in support of Registrations by the United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) or foreign regulatory agencies for the Company Products, were and, if still pending, are being conducted in all material respects in accordance with experimental protocols, procedures and controls generally used by qualified experts in the preclinical or clinical study of new drugs and in material compliance with applicable Laws. The descriptions of the results of such studies, test and trials contained in the SEC Reports are accurate in all material respects, and, to the Company’s Knowledge, there are no other trials, studies or tests, the results of which the Company believes reasonably call into question the clinical trial results described or referred to in the SEC Reports when viewed in the context in which such results are described and the clinical stage of development. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries have received any notices or correspondence from the FDA or any other domestic or foreign Governmental Authority requiring the termination, suspension or material modification, other than modifications customarily implemented during the drug development process, of any preclinical tests or clinical trials conducted by or on behalf of the Company or its Subsidiaries or in which the Company or its Subsidiaries have participated that are
15.
described in the SEC Reports or the results of which are referred to in the SEC Reports, in each case that would have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth in the SEC Reports or in the Disclosure Materials, the Company and its Subsidiaries, and, to the Company’s Knowledge, its distributors, manufacturers and sublicensees, are not subject to any obligation arising under an administrative or regulatory action, FDA inspection, FDA warning letter, FDA notice of violation letter, recall notice, or other notice or commitment made to or with the FDA or any other Governmental Authority (including without limitation the Drug Enforcement Agency) regarding or impacting the Company Products, including without limitation any notice alleging a material violation of any applicable Law or required Registration. Except as described in the SEC Reports, neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries and, to the Company’s Knowledge, neither its distributors, manufacturers nor sublicensees, have received any written or other notice from FDA, the Drug Enforcement Agency or a comparable Governmental Authority alleging that the Company Products are the subject of any pending or threatened investigation in any jurisdiction that has not been fully remedied. Except as described in the SEC Reports or in the Disclosure Materials, the Company and its Subsidiaries and, to the Company’s Knowledge, its distributors, manufacturers and sublicensees, are in compliance with all applicable Laws administered or issued by FDA or any other Governmental Authority that are relevant to the Company Products, including, without limitation, those requirements relating to the testing, handling, distribution, regulatory approval, pricing approval, annual reporting, registration, good manufacturing practices, record-keeping, adverse event reporting, promotion, sales, packaging, labeling and advertising of drugs and controlled substances (where applicable) in each case in all material respects. The promotion, sale, manufacture, storage, packaging, labeling, handling, testing and distribution of the Company Products for which Registrations have been obtained by the Company, its Subsidiaries, distributors, manufacturers and sublicensees is being, and at all times following such Registration has been, conducted in compliance in all material respects with the Registrations, except for any failure that has not, and would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect; provided that the foregoing representation as it relates to the Company’s distributors, manufacturers and sublicensees shall be to the Company’s Knowledge. All regulatory filings made by the Company or its Subsidiaries, or, to the Company’s Knowledge, by the Company’s distributors, manufacturers or sublicensees, to any Governmental Authority, in each case with respect to any of the Company Products, when submitted to the Governmental Authority were accurate in all material respects as of the date of submission, or as subsequently corrected or modified. Neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries (including their officers or employees) nor, to the Company’s Knowledge, any principal investigator or sub-investigator engaged in any clinical investigation conducted with respect to any Company Product (including their officers or employees) has been convicted of any crime under 21 U.S.C. Section 335a(a) or any similar state or foreign Law or under 21 U.S.C. Section 335a(b) or any similar state or foreign Law. To the Company’s Knowledge, there are no facts which would reasonably be expected to cause (i) the withdrawal or recall of any Company Product sold by or on behalf of the Company, its Subsidiaries, distributors or sublicensees, (ii) a termination or suspension of marketing of any such Company Product, or (iii) any adverse events or safety concerns not already publicly disclosed that would have a material impact on the ability to market any such Company Product. As of the date hereof, the current quota of sodium oxybate obtained by the Company’s manufacturers from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency is sufficient to meet the Company’s commercial and clinical requirements for sodium oxybate, Xyrem and JZP-6 for 2009.
(x) Material Contracts. The description of the Material Contracts, documents or other agreements contained in the SEC Reports (as the case may be) reflect in all material respects the terms of the underlying contract, document or other agreement. Each such Material Contract, document or other agreement is in full force and effect and is valid and enforceable by and against the Company in accordance with its terms. Except as described in the SEC Reports, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default in the observance or performance of any term or obligation to be performed by it under any such agreement, and no event has occurred which with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute such a default, in any such case which default or event, individually or in the aggregate, would result in a Material Adverse Effect.
16.
(y) Certain Fees. No Person will have, as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any valid right, interest or claim against or upon the Company or the Purchasers for any commission, fee or other compensation pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into by or on behalf of the Company.

Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 of this Agreement, neither the Company nor any Person acting on its behalf has, directly or indirectly, at any time within the past six months, made any offers or sales of any Company security or solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would (i) eliminate the availability of the exemption from registration under Regulation D under the Securities Act in connection with the offer and sale by the Company of the Securities as contemplated hereby or (ii) cause the offering of the Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of any applicable law, regulation or stockholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any Trading Market on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated.
(bb) Listing and Maintenance Requirements. The Company’s Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and the Company has taken no action designed to terminate the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act nor has the Company received any notification that the Commission is contemplating terminating such registration. The Company has not, in the 12 months preceding the date hereof, received written notice from any Trading Market on which the Common Stock is or has been listed or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading Market. As of the date hereof, the Company is in compliance in all material respects with the listing and maintenance requirements for continued trading of the Common Stock on the Principal Trading Market, except as set forth on the Disclosure Schedule.

(dd) Off Balance Sheet Arrangements. There is no transaction, arrangement, or other relationship between the Company and an unconsolidated or other off balance sheet entity that is required to be disclosed by the Company in its Exchange Act filings and is not so disclosed or that otherwise would have a Material Adverse Effect.
(ee) Acknowledgment Regarding Purchasers’ Purchase of Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that each of the Purchasers are acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The Company further acknowledges that no Purchaser is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar capacity) with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby and any advice given by any Purchaser or its representatives or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby is merely incidental to such Purchaser’s purchase of the Securities.
17.
(ff) No Additional Agreements. The Company does not have any agreements or understandings with the Purchasers with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents other than as specified in the Transaction Documents.
(gg) Change of Control Benefits. Except as described in the SEC Reports, neither the consummation of any change of control (either alone or in connection with any other event, including any termination of employment or service), will (i) result in any payment (including any bonus, golden parachute or severance payment) becoming due to any employee or consultant of the Company, (ii) result in any forgiveness of indebtedness owing by any employee or consultant of the Company to the Company or, to the Company’s Knowledge, owing by any employee or consultant to any third party, (iii) materially increase the benefits payable by the Company, nor (iv) result in any acceleration of the time of payment or vesting of any such benefits.

(ii) Stockholder Approval. No vote of the Company’s stockholders is required in connection with the issuance and sale of the Securities or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.
(jj) Use of Proceeds; Solvency. The net proceeds of the sale of the Units hereunder shall be used by the Company for working capital and general corporate purposes. After giving effect to the Closing, the Company will not be insolvent.

None of the Transaction Documents, when viewed together with the Disclosure Materials, contain any untrue statement of a material fact nor omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading.
3.2 Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser hereby, for itself and for no other Purchaser, represents and warrants as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date (except for the representations and warranties that speak as of a specific date, which shall be made as of such date), to the Company as follows:

The execution, delivery and performance by such Purchaser of this Agreement, the Investor Rights Agreement, the NOL Lock-Up Agreement and the Management Rights Letter (if a party thereto) and the consummation by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents of such Purchaser (to the extent an entity), (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with 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 Purchaser is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws) applicable to such Purchaser, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such conflicts, defaults, rights or violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of such Purchaser to perform its obligations hereunder.
(c) Investment Intent. Such Purchaser understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” and have not been registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law and is acquiring the Securities as principal for its own account and not with a view to, or for distributing or reselling such Securities or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, such Purchaser does not agree to hold any of the Securities for any minimum period of time and reserves the right, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Investor Rights Agreement and the NOL Lock-Up Agreement, at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Securities pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or under an exemption from such registration and in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. Such Purchaser (to the extent an entity) is acquiring the Securities hereunder in the ordinary course of its business.

financial condition, results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable it to evaluate its investment; and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such additional information that the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the investment. Neither such inquiries nor any other investigation conducted by or on behalf of such Purchaser or its representatives or counsel shall modify, amend or affect such Purchaser’s right to rely on the truth, accuracy and completeness of the Disclosure Materials and the Company’s representations and warranties contained in the Transaction Documents.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IV, each Purchaser covenants that the Securities may be disposed of only pursuant to (x) 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 and (y) the terms of the NOL Lock-Up Agreement (for so long as the restrictions set forth therein shall remain in effect). In connection with any transfer of the Securities other than (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement, (ii) to the Company, (iii) to an Affiliate of a Purchaser or (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, 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 of such transferred Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer of any Securities other than Unrestricted Securities (as defined below), any such transferee (i) 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 Investor Rights Agreement, and (ii) for so long as the restrictions set forth the NOL Lock-Up Agreement shall remain in effect, shall agree in writing to be bound by the applicable terms of the NOL Lock-Up Agreement (unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Company).
(b) Legends. Each of the Warrants and the certificates evidencing the Shares shall bear any legend as required by the “blue sky” laws of any state and the restrictive legends in substantially the following form, as applicable, until such time as they are not required under Section 4.1(c) (and a stock transfer order may be placed against transfer of the certificates for the Shares):
[NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OR CONVERSION OF THIS SECURITY HAVE BEEN REGISTERED] [THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED] UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BY ARTICLE IV OF THAT CERTAIN SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF JULY 6, 2009, BY AND AMONG JAZZ PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND THE PURCHASERS IDENTIFIED ON THE SIGNATURE PAGES THERETO.
21.
[THIS SECURITY AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OR CONVERSION OF THIS SECURITY] [THESE SECURITIES] ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE AND CERTAIN OTHER RESTRICTIONS, [INCLUDING EXERCISE OR CONVERSION RESTRICTIONS,] ALL AS SET FORTH IN A NOL PRESERVATION LOCK-UP AGREEMENT BETWEEN JAZZ PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF [THIS SECURITY][THESE SECURITIES], A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICES OF JAZZ PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.
In addition, if any Purchaser is an Affiliate of the Company, the Warrants and the certificates evidencing the Shares issued to such Purchaser shall bear a customary “affiliates” legend.
(c) Removal of Legends. The legends set forth in Section 4.1(b) above shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legends or any other legend to the holder of the applicable Securities upon which it is stamped or issue to such holder by electronic delivery at the applicable balance account at DTC, if (A) such Securities have been or may be transferred in accordance with the terms of the NOL Lock-Up Agreement without restriction; and (B) (i) such Securities are sold or transferred pursuant to an effective Registration Statement covering the resale of such Securities by the Purchasers, (ii) such Securities are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 (if the transferor is not an Affiliate of the Company), or (iii) such Securities are eligible for sale without any restrictions under Rule 144 (any Securities meeting such criteria being referred to as “Unrestricted Securities”). Following such time as a legend is no longer required for certain Securities, the Company will no later than three (3) Trading Days (or such shorter time as may in the future be required pursuant to applicable law or regulation for the settlement of trades in securities on the Principal Trading Market) following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Transfer Agent (with notice to the Company) of a legended certificate representing such Securities (endorsed or with stock powers attached, signatures guaranteed if so required by the Transfer Agent in the ordinary course of business, and otherwise in form necessary to effect the reissuance and/or transfer), deliver or cause to be delivered to the transferee of such Purchaser or such Purchaser, as applicable, a certificate representing such Securities that is free from such legend. 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 4.1. In lieu of delivering physical certificates, upon the written request of any Purchaser, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to transmit certificates for Securities subject to full legend removal hereunder to such Purchaser by crediting the account of the transferee’s Purchaser’s prime broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (DWAC) system, or any successor system thereto. The time periods for delivery shall apply to the electronic transmittals described herein. Any delivery not effected by electronic transmission shall be effected by delivery of physical certificates. Each Purchaser agrees that the removal of (x) the restrictive legend referring to the NOL Lock-Up Agreement from any certificates representing Securities as set forth in this Section 4.1(c) is predicated upon either (A) a transfer of such Securities in strict compliance with the terms of the NOL Lock-Up Agreement or (B) the termination of the restrictions set forth in the NOL Lock-Up Agreement; and (y) the restrictive legend referring to the Securities Act from any certificates representing Securities as set forth in this Section 4.1(c) above is predicated upon the Company’s reliance that such Purchaser would sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of such Securities pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if such Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein.
22.
(d) Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company shall execute and deliver irrevocable instructions to its Transfer Agent, which irrevocable instructions shall be acknowledged in writing by the Transfer Agent, in the form of Exhibit F attached hereto (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”). The Company represents and warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions or instructions consistent therewith referred to in this Section 4.1(d) will be given by the Company to its transfer agent in connection with this Agreement, and that the Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and applicable law. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations under this Section 4.1(d) will cause irreparable harm to a Purchaser. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 4.1(d) will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 4.1(d), that a Purchaser shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
(e) Acknowledgment. Each Purchaser hereunder acknowledges its primary responsibilities under the Securities Act and accordingly will not sell or otherwise transfer any of the Securities or any interest therein without complying with the requirements of the Securities Act. While any Registration Statement remains effective, each Purchaser hereunder may, subject to the provisions of the NOL Lock-Up Agreement, sell the Shares in accordance with the plan of distribution contained in such 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 in writing at any time that a Registration Statement registering the resale of any of the 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 Shares 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 Shares pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act.
4.2 Reservation of Common Stock. As of the Closing Date, the Company shall have taken all action necessary to authorize, and reserve for the purpose of issuance from and after the Closing, no less than the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable as Unit Shares at the Closing, and issuable upon exercise in full for cash of the Warrants issued at the Closing.
4.3 Furnishing of Information. In order to enable the Purchasers to sell the Securities under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, commencing on the date hereof and ending at such time as all Purchasers can freely sell Securities without restriction under the Securities Act, 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 the Exchange Act. During such period, if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to such laws, it will prepare and furnish to the Purchasers and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such information as is required for the Purchasers to sell the Shares under Rule 144.
4.4 Form D and Blue Sky. The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to each Purchaser who requests a copy in writing promptly after such filing. The Company shall make all filings and reports relating to the offer and sale of the Securities required under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States following the Closing Date.
23.
4.5 No Integration. The Company shall not, and shall use its commercially reasonable 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 in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities to the Purchasers, or that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market such that it would require stockholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless stockholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.
4.6 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. By 4:15 p.m., Eastern Time, on the Trading Day immediately following the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall issue a press release (the “Press Release”) reasonably acceptable to the Purchasers disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby. On or before 5:30 p.m., Eastern Time, on the fourth Trading Day following the execution of this Agreement (or such earlier time as required by law), the Company will file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Commission describing the terms of the Transaction Documents and including as exhibits to such Current Report on Form 8-K the material Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, this Agreement, the forms of Warrant, the Investor Rights Agreement, and the NOL Lock-Up Agreement). 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 as described in this Section 4.6, 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), except that such Purchaser may disclose the terms to its financial, accounting, legal and other advisors.
4.7 Listing of Securities. In the time and manner required by the Principal Trading Market, the Company shall prepare and file with such Trading Market an additional shares listing application covering all of the Securities and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take all steps necessary to maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing or if no longer listed on the Principal Trading Market, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take all steps necessary to maintain a listing on another Trading Market.
4.8 Dispositions and Confidentiality After the Date Hereof. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that neither it, nor any Affiliate acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it, will engage in any transactions in the Company’s securities (including, without limitation, any Short Sales involving the Company’s securities) during the period from the date hereof until the earlier of such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced as described in Section 4.6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’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 assets, the covenants set forth above shall apply only with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that has knowledge about the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Purchaser understands and acknowledges, severally and not jointly with any other Purchaser, that the Commission currently takes the position that covering a short position established prior to effectiveness of a resale registration statement with shares included in such registration statement would be a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act, as set forth in Section 239.10 of the Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations of the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance with respect Section 5 of the Securities Act, dated November 26, 2008.

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. Each Purchaser acknowledges that the Purchaser or Purchasers holding or having the right to acquire, at the time of such amendment, at least a majority-in-interest of the total Unit Shares have the power to bind all of the Purchasers.
28.
7.5 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.
7.6 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement, or any rights or obligations hereunder, may not be assigned by the Company without the prior written consent of the Purchasers holding or having the right to acquire, at the time of such consent to assignment, at least a majority-in-interest of the total Unit Shares. Subject to Section 4.1(b) and the terms of the NOL Lock-Up Agreement, any Purchaser may assign its rights hereunder in whole or in part to any Person to whom such Purchaser assigns or transfers any Securities in compliance with the Transaction Documents and applicable law.
7.7 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.
7.8 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 California, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. 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.
7.9 Survival. Notwithstanding any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or the Purchasers or any person controlling any of them, the representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution of this Agreement, the delivery to the Purchasers of the Units being purchased and the payment therefor for a period of twenty-four (24) months following the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, the representations and warranties will continue to survive until the final resolution of any claim brought within such twenty-four (24) month period against the Company or any Purchaser, as applicable, with respect to such representations and warranties. The agreements and covenants contained herein shall survive for the applicable statute of limitations.
7.10 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 the other party, it being understood that both 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.
7.11 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.
29.
7.12 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 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, with respect to Shares, 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 required by the Transfer Agent. 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.
7.13 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Purchasers 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 described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agree to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation (other than in connection with any action for a temporary restraining order) the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
7.14 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.
7.15 Waiver of Conflicts. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that Company Counsel, outside general counsel to the Company, has in the past performed and is or may now or in the future represent one or more Purchasers or their affiliates in matters unrelated to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Financing”), including representation of such Purchasers or their affiliates in matters of a similar nature to the Financing. The applicable rules of professional conduct require that Company Counsel inform the parties hereunder of this representation and obtain their consent. Company Counsel has served as outside general counsel to the Company and has negotiated the terms of the Financing solely on behalf of the Company. The Company and each Purchaser hereby (a) acknowledge that they have had an opportunity to ask for and have obtained information relevant to such representation, including disclosure of the reasonably foreseeable adverse consequences of such representation; (b) acknowledge that with respect to the Financing, Company Counsel has represented solely the Company, and not any Purchaser or any stockholder, director or employee of the Company or any Purchaser; and (c) gives its informed consent to Company Counsel’s representation of the Company in the Financing.
