are issued and outstanding on the date hereof, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred

except as may be otherwise specified in such financial statements or the notes
thereto and except that unaudited financial statements may not contain all
footnotes required by GAAP and are subject to routine year-end adjustments
which

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

statements, to normal, year-end audit adjustments as referred to

information. Except for the issuance of the Securities contemplated by this
Agreement, no event, liability or development has occurred or exists with
respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries or their respective business,
properties, operations or financial condition, that would be required to be
disclosed by the Company under applicable securities laws at the time this
representation is made that has not been publicly disclosed at least one Trading
Day prior to the date that this representation is made.

There
is no action, suit, inquiry, notice of violation, proceeding or investigation
pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting
the
Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties before or by

which
(i) adversely affects or challenges the legality, validity or enforceability
of
any of the Transaction Documents or the Debentures and Warrants or (ii) could,
if there were an unfavorable decision, have or reasonably be expected to result
in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, nor any
director or 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.

relationship with the Company, and neither the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries is a party to a collective bargaining agreement, and the Company
and its Subsidiaries believe that their relationships with their employees
are
good. No executive officer, to the knowledge of the Company, is, or is now
expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract,
confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement or
non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive
covenant, and the continued employment of each such executive officer does
not
subject the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any liability with respect
to
any of the foregoing matters. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance
with all U.S. federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating
to
employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and
wages and hours, except where the failure to be in compliance could not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

which it or any of its properties is bound (whether or not such default or
violation has been waived), (ii) is in violation of any order of any court,
arbitrator or governmental body, or (iii) is or has been in violation of any
statute, rule or regulation of any governmental authority, including without

Effect.

Permits.
The
Company and the Subsidiaries possess all certificates, authorizations and
permits issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory
authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses as described in
the
SEC Reports, except where the failure to possess such permits could not have
or
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect (“Material
Permits”),
and
neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of proceedings
relating to the revocation or modification of any Material Permit.
(n) Title
to Assets.
The
Company and the Subsidiaries have good and marketable title in fee simple to

the Subsidiaries and good and marketable title in all
11
personal
property owned by them that is material to the business of the Company and
the
Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all Liens, except for purchase
money security interests, Liens as do not materially affect the value of such
property and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to
be
made of such property by the Company and the Subsidiaries and Liens for the
payment of federal, state or other taxes, the payment of which is neither
delinquent nor subject to penalties. Any real property and facilities held
under
lease by the Company and the Subsidiaries are held by them under valid,
subsisting and enforceable leases with which the Company and the Subsidiaries
are in material compliance.
(o) 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,
trade secrets, inventions, copyrights, licenses and other intellectual property
rights and similar rights necessary or material for use in connection with
their
respective businesses as described in the SEC Reports and which the failure
to
so have would have a Material Adverse Effect (collectively, the “Intellectual
Property Rights”).
Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received a notice (written or
otherwise) that the Intellectual Property Rights used by the Company or any
Subsidiary violates or infringes upon the rights of any Person. To the knowledge
of the Company, all such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable and there
is no existing infringement by another Person of any of the Intellectual
Property Rights. The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security
measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of their
intellectual properties, except where failure to do so could not, individually
or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.
(p) Insurance.
The
Company and the Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial
responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are
management of the Company believes to be prudent. Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its
existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain
similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its
business without a significant increase in cost.
(q) Transactions
With Affiliates and Employees.
Except
as set forth in the SEC Reports, none of the officers or directors of the
Company and, to the knowledge of the Company, none of the employees of the
Company is presently a party to any transaction with the Company or any
Subsidiary (other than for services as employees, officers and directors),
including any contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for the
furnishing of services to or by, providing for rental of real or personal
property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments to or from any officer,
director or such employee or, to the knowledge of the Company, any entity in
which any officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest
or
is an officer, director, trustee or partner, in each case in excess of $60,000
other than (i) for payment of salary or consulting fees for services rendered,
(ii) reimbursement for expenses incurred on behalf
12
of
the
Company and (iii) for other employee benefits, including stock option agreements
under any stock option plan of the Company.
(r) Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx;
Internal Accounting Controls.
The
Company is in material compliance with all provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx
Act
of 2002 which are applicable to it as of the Closing Date. The
Company and the Subsidiaries maintain 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. If applicable to the Company on the
date hereof, the Company has established disclosure controls and procedures
(as
defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company and
designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits
under
the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the
time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. If applicable to the
Company on the date hereof, the Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the
effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end
of the period covered by the Company’s 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 such term is defined in
the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting.
(s) Certain
Fees.
Except
for a fee payable to Xxxxxx Capital, LLC, no brokerage or finder’s fees or
commissions are or will be payable by the Company to any broker, financial
advisor or consultant, finder, placement agent, investment banker, bank or
other
Person with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents. The Purchasers shall have no obligation with respect to any fees
or
with respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of
a
type contemplated in this Section that may be due in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.
(t) Private
Placement.
Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations and warranties set
forth in Section 3.2, no registration under the Securities Act is required
for
the offer and sale of the Securities by the Company to the Purchasers as
contemplated hereby. The issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder does
not
contravene the rules and regulations of the Trading Market.
13
(u) Investment
Company.
The
Company is not, and is not an Affiliate of, and immediately after receipt of
payment for the Securities, will not be or be an Affiliate of, an “investment
company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
The Company shall conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become
subject to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
(v) Registration
Rights.
Other
than each of the Purchasers, no Person has any right to cause the Company to
effect the registration under the Securities Act of any securities of the
Company, except for any such rights which have been satisfied by the Company
and
except for the Company’s intention to register 1,643,000 shares of Common Stock
pursuant to the Securities Act.
(w) Listing
and Maintenance Requirements.
The
Company’s Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the
Exchange Act, and the Company has taken no action designed to, or which to
its
knowledge is likely to have the effect of, terminating 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 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. The Company is, and has no
reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue to be,
in
compliance with all such listing and maintenance requirements.
(x) Disclosure.
All
disclosure furnished by or on behalf of the Company to the Purchasers regarding
the Company, its business and the transactions contemplated hereby, is true
and
correct and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit
to
state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The
press releases disseminated by the Company during the twelve months preceding
the date of this Agreement did not contain, at the time of their respective
releases, any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made and when made, not
misleading. The Company acknowledges and agrees that no Purchaser makes or
has
made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in Section 3.2
hereof.
(y) No
Integrated Offering.
Assuming
the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations and warranties set forth in
Section 3.2, neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates, nor any Person
acting on its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers
or
sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under
circumstances that would cause this offering of the Securities to be integrated
with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act or any
applicable shareholder approval provision of any Trading Market on which any
of
the securities of the Company are listed or designated.
14
(z) Solvency.
Based
on the financial condition of the Company as of the Closing Date after giving
effect to the receipt by the Company of the proceeds from the sale of the
Securities hereunder, (i) the fair saleable value of the Company’s assets
exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect of the
Company’s existing debts and other liabilities (including known contingent
liabilities) as they mature; (ii) the Company’s assets do not constitute
unreasonably small capital to carry on its business as now conducted and as
proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the
particular capital requirements of the business conducted by the Company, and
projected capital requirements and capital availability thereof; and (iii)
the
current cash flow of the Company, together with the proceeds the Company would
receive, were it to liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account
all
anticipated uses of the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or
in
respect of its liabilities when such amounts are required to be paid. The
Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts
as
they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable
on
or in respect of its debt). The Company has no knowledge of any facts or
circumstances which lead it to believe that it will file for reorganization
or
liquidation under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction
within one year from the Closing Date. The balance of the Company at June 30,
2006, contained in the SEC Reports sets forth as of the date thereof all
outstanding secured and unsecured Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary,
or for which the Company or any Subsidiary has any commitments. Since June
30,
2006, the Company has not incurred and Indebtedness (other than amounts owed
to
Purchasers) except that on July 1, 2006, the Company repurchased the Theater
Xtreme franchise for the store located in Leesport, PA from Theaters4U, LLC
in
the amount of $193,307, paid partially in cash, partially in Common Stock,
and
partially with a note due on December 31, 2006. For the purposes of this
Agreement, “Indebtedness”
shall
mean (a) any liabilities for borrowed money or amounts owed in excess of $50,000
(other than trade accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of business),
(b) all guaranties, endorsements and other contingent obligations in respect
of
Indebtedness of others, whether or not the same are or should be reflected
in
the Company’s balance sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties by
endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar
transactions in the ordinary course of business; and (c) the present value
of
any lease payments
in excess of $50,000 due under leases required to be capitalized in accordance
with GAAP. Neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default with respect to any
Indebtedness.
(aa) Tax
Status.
Except
for matters that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably
be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the Company and each
Subsidiary has filed all necessary federal, state and foreign income and
franchise tax returns and has paid or accrued all taxes shown as due thereon,
and the Company has no knowledge of a tax deficiency which has been asserted
or
threatened against the Company or any Subsidiary.
(bb) No
General Solicitation.
Neither
the Company nor any person acting on behalf of the Company has offered or sold
any of the Securities by any form of general solicitation or general
advertising. The Company has offered the Securities for sale only
15
to
the
Purchasers and certain other “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule
501 under the Securities Act.
(cc) Foreign
Corrupt Practices.
Neither
the Company, nor to the knowledge of the Company, any agent or other person
acting on behalf of the Company, has (i) directly or indirectly, used any funds
for unlawful contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses
related to foreign or domestic political activity, (ii) made any unlawful
payment to foreign or domestic government officials or employees or to any
foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns from corporate funds, (iii)
failed to disclose fully any contribution made by the Company (or made by any
person acting on its behalf of which the Company is aware) which is in violation
of law, or (iv) violated in any material respect any provision of the Foreign
Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.
(dd) Accountants.
The
Company’s accounting firm is Xxxxxxx Cogen LLC. To the knowledge and belief of
the Company, such accounting firm (i) is a registered public accounting firm
as
required by the Exchange Act.
(ee) Seniority.
As of
the Closing Date, no Indebtedness or other claim against the Company is senior
to the Debentures in right of payment, whether with respect to interest or
upon
liquidation or dissolution, or otherwise, other than indebtedness secured by
purchase money security interests (which is senior only as to underlying assets
covered thereby) and capital lease obligations (which is senior only as to
the
property covered thereby).
(ff) No
Disagreements with Accountants and Lawyers.
There
are no disagreements of any kind presently existing, or reasonably anticipated
by the Company to arise, between the Company and the accountants and lawyers
formerly or presently employed by the Company. At September 30, 2006, the
Company owed $23,000 and $68,900 to its accountants and lawyers,
respectively.
(gg) Acknowledgment
Regarding Purchasers’ Purchase of Securities.
The
Company acknowledges and agrees that each of the Purchasers is acting solely
in
the capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to the Transaction
Documents and the transactions contemplated 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 any of their respective representatives or agents in connection
with the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby is
merely incidental to the Purchasers’ purchase of the Securities. The Company
further represents to each Purchaser that the Company’s decision to enter into
this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents has been based solely on
the
independent evaluation of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Company
and its representatives.
(hh) Acknowledgment
Regarding Purchasers Trading Activity.
Anything in this Agreement or elsewhere herein to the contrary notwithstanding
(except for Sections
16
3.2(f)
and 4.16 hereof), it is understood and acknowledged by the Company (i) that
none
of the Purchasers have been asked to agree, nor has any Purchaser agreed, to
desist from purchasing or selling, long and/or short, securities of the Company,
or “derivative” securities based on securities issued by the Company or to hold
the Securities for any specified term; (ii) that past or future open market
or
other transactions by any Purchaser, including Short Sales, and specifically
including, without limitation, Short Sales or “derivative” transactions, before
or after the closing of this or future private placement transactions, may
negatively impact the market price of the Company’s publicly-traded securities;
(iii) that any Purchaser, and counter-parties in “derivative” transactions to
which any such Purchaser is a party, directly or indirectly, presently may
have
a “short” position in the Common Stock; and (iv) that each Purchaser shall not
be deemed to have any affiliation with or control over any arm’s length
counter-party in any “derivative” transaction. The
Company further understands and acknowledges that (a) one or more Purchasers
may
engage in hedging activities at various times during the period that the
Securities are outstanding, including, without limitation, during the periods
that the value of the Warrant Shares deliverable with respect to Securities
are
being determined and (b) such hedging activities (if any) could reduce the
value
of the existing stockholders' equity interests in the Company at and after
the
time that the hedging activities are being conducted. The Company
acknowledges that such aforementioned hedging activities do not constitute
a
breach of any of the Transaction Documents.
(ii) Regulation
M Compliance.
The Company has not, and to its knowledge no one acting on its behalf has,
(i)
taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or to result in
the
stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to
facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Securities, (ii) sold, bid for,
purchased, or paid any compensation for soliciting purchases of, any of the
securities of the Company or (iii) paid or agreed to pay to any Person any
compensation for soliciting another to purchase any other securities of the
Company, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), compensation paid
to
the Company’s placement agent in connection with the placement of the
Securities
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 to the Company as
follows:
(a) Organization;
Authority.
Such
Purchaser is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization with full right,
corporate or partnership power and authority to enter into and to consummate
the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry
out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution, delivery and
performance by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or similar action on the
part of such Purchaser. Each Transaction Document to which it is a party has
been duly executed by such Purchaser, and when delivered by such Purchaser
in
accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and legally binding
obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable against it in accordance with its
terms, except (i) as limited by general
17
equitable
principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
and
other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights
generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific
performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and (iii) insofar
as
indemnification and contribution provisions may be limited by applicable law.
The Purchaser’s Federal taxpayer identification number, mailing address for
notices, and jurisdiction of domicile are accurately set forth on the signature
page.
(b) Own
Account.
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
law, has no present intention of distributing any of such Securities in
violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law and
has
no direct or indirect arrangement or understandings with any other persons
to
distribute or regarding the distribution of such Securities (this representation
and warranty not limiting such Purchaser’s right to sell the Securities pursuant
to the Registration Statement or otherwise in compliance with applicable federal
and state securities laws) in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable
state securities law. Such Purchaser is acquiring the Securities hereunder
in
the ordinary course of its business.
(c) Purchaser
Status.
At the
time such Purchaser was offered the Securities, it was, and at the date hereof
it is, and on each date on which it exercises any Warrants it will be either:
(i) an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3),
(a)(7) or (a)(8) under the Securities Act or (ii) a “qualified institutional
buyer” as defined in Rule 144A(a) under the Securities Act. Such Purchaser is
not required to be registered as a broker-dealer under Section 15 of the
Exchange Act.
(d) Experience
of Such Purchaser.
Such
Purchaser, either alone or together with its representatives, has such
knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters
so as
to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment
in the Securities, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment.
Such Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the
Securities and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such
investment.
(e) General
Solicitation.
Such
Purchaser is not purchasing the Securities as a result of any advertisement,
article, notice or other communication regarding the Securities published in
any
newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio
or
presented at any seminar or any other general solicitation or general
advertisement. Such Purchaser acknowledges that such Purchaser has been given
access to, and prior to the execution of the Transaction Documents an
opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from, the Company concerning
the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities and to obtain any
other information that such Purchaser requested with respect to the Company’s
operations and such Purchaser’s proposed investment in the Company in order to
evaluate the investment and verify the accuracy of
18
all
information furnished to it regarding the Company. Such Purchaser further
acknowledges that such Purchaser has reviewed all of the SEC
Reports.
(f) Short
Sales and Confidentiality Prior To The Date Hereof.
Other
than the transaction contemplated hereunder, such Purchaser has not directly
or
indirectly, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any
understanding with such Purchaser, executed any transaction, including Short
Sales, in the securities of the Company during the period commencing
from
the time
that such Purchaser first received a term sheet (written or oral) from the
Company or any other Person setting forth the material terms of the transactions
contemplated hereunder until the date hereof (“Discussion
Time”).
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 representation set forth above shall only apply
with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that
made
the investment decision to purchase the Securities covered by this Agreement.
Other than to other Persons party to this Agreement, such Purchaser has
maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection
with
this transaction (including the existence and terms of this
transaction).
ARTICLE
IV.
OTHER
AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
4.1 Transfer
Restrictions.
(a) The
Purchasers acknowledge that the Securities may only be disposed of in compliance
with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of
Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule
144, to the Company or to an Affiliate of a Purchaser or in connection with
a
pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), 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 and the Transfer
Agent, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such
transferred Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer,
any
such transferee 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
Registration Rights Agreement.
(b) The
Purchasers agree to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section
4.1,
of a legend on any of the Securities in the following form:
[NEITHER]
THIS SECURITY [NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS SECURITY IS [EXERCISABLE]
HAS
BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES
COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM
19
REGISTRATION
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND,
ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE
REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER 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 ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR
TO
SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE
COMPANY. THIS SECURITY AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON [EXERCISE] OF THIS
SECURITY MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER
LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.
The
Company acknowledges and agrees that a Purchaser may from time to time pledge
pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or
grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities to a financial
institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the
Securities Act and who agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement
and the Registration Rights Agreement and, if required under the terms of such
arrangement, such Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Securities to the
pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject
to
approval of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee,
secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further,
no
notice shall be required of such pledge. At the appropriate Purchaser’s expense,
the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee
or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with a
pledge or transfer of the Securities, including, if the Securities are subject
to registration pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the preparation
and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) under the
Securities Act or other applicable provision of the Securities Act to
appropriately amend the list of Selling Stockholders thereunder.
(c) Certificates
evidencing the Warrant Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend
set forth in Section 4.1(b) hereof): (i) while a registration statement
(including the Registration Statement) covering the resale of such security
is
effective under the Securities Act, or (ii) following any sale of such Warrant
Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) if such Warrant Shares are eligible for
sale under Rule 144(k), or (iii) if such legend is not required under applicable
requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and
pronouncements issued by the staff
20
of
the
Commission). Under any such circumstances the Company shall cause its counsel
to
issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly after the Effective Date
if
required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder.
If
all or any portion of a Warrant is exercised at a time when there is an
effective registration statement to cover the resale of the Warrant Shares,
or
if such Warrant Shares may be sold under Rule 144(k) or if such legend is not
otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act
(including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff
of
the Commission) then such Warrant Shares shall be issued free of all legends.
The Company agrees that following the Effective Date or at such time as such
legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1(c), it will, no later than
three Trading Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or
the
Transfer Agent of a certificate representing Warrant Shares, as applicable,
issued with a restrictive legend (such third Trading Day, the “Legend
Removal Date”),
deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing
such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends. 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. If
possible, certificates for Warrant Shares subject to legend removal hereunder
shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Purchasers by crediting the
account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company
System.
(d) In
addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to
a Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for
each $2,000 of Warrant Shares (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the
date
such Securities are submitted to the Transfer Agent) delivered for removal
of
the restrictive legend and subject to Section 4.1(c), $10 per Trading Day
(increasing to $20 per Trading Day 5 Trading Days after such damages have begun
to accrue) for each Trading Day after the second Trading Day following the
Legend Removal Date until such certificate is delivered without a legend.
Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for
the Company’s failure to deliver certificates representing any Securities as
required by the Transaction Documents, and such Purchaser shall have the right
to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without
limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive
relief.
(e) Each
Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, agrees that
the
removal of the restrictive legend from certificates representing Securities
as
set forth in this Section 4.1 is predicated upon the Company’s reliance that the
Purchaser will sell any Securities pursuant to either the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery
requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if Securities are sold
pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold in compliance with
the
plan of distribution set forth therein and upon compliance with the prospectus
delivery requirement.
4.2 Acknowledgment
of Dilution.
The
Company acknowledges that the issuance of the Securities may result in dilution
of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, which dilution may be substantial
under certain market conditions. The Company further acknowledges that its
obligations under the Transaction Documents, including without limitation its
obligation to issue the Warrant Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents,
are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off,
counterclaim, delay or reduction, regardless of the effect of any such dilution
or any claim the Company may have against any Purchaser and regardless of the
dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership of the other
stockholders of the Company.
21
4.3 Furnishing
of Information.
As long
as any Purchaser owns Securities, the Company covenants 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. As long as any Purchaser owns Securities, if
the
Company is not required to file reports pursuant to the Exchange Act, 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
Securities under Rule 144. The Company further covenants that it will take
such
further action as any holder of Securities may reasonably request, to the extent
required from time to time to enable such Person to sell such Securities without
registration under the Securities Act within the requirements of the exemption
provided by Rule 144.
4.4 Integration.
The
Company shall not 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 would 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.
4.5 Exercise
Procedures.
The
form of Notice of Exercise included in the Warrants sets forth the totality
of
the procedures required of the Purchasers in order to exercise the Warrants.
No
additional legal opinion or other information or instructions shall be required
of the Purchasers to exercise their Warrants. The Company shall honor exercises
of the Warrants and shall deliver Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms,
conditions and time periods set forth in the Transaction Documents.
4.6 Securities
Laws Disclosure; Publicity.
The
Company shall, by 8:30 a.m. New York City time on the second Trading Day
following the date hereof, issue a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing the
material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and attaching the
Transaction Documents thereto. The Company and each Purchaser shall consult
with
each other in issuing any other press releases with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby, and neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue
any
such press release or otherwise make any such public statement without the
prior
consent of the Company, with respect to any press release of any Purchaser,
or
without the prior consent of each Purchaser, with respect to any press release
of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed,
except if such disclosure is required by law, in which case the disclosing
party
shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public
statement or communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall
not
publicly disclose the name of any Purchaser, or include the name of any
Purchaser in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading
Market, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser, except (i) as
required by federal securities law in connection with (A) any registration
statement contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement and (B) the filing
of final Transaction Documents (including signature pages thereto) with the
Commission and (ii) to the extent such disclosure is required by law or Trading
Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the Purchasers
with
prior notice of such disclosure permitted under this subclause
(ii).
4.7 Shareholder
Rights Plan.
No
claim will be made or enforced by the Company or, with the consent of the
Company, any other Person, that any Purchaser is an “Acquiring Person”
22
under
any
control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any
distribution under a rights agreement) or similar anti-takeover plan or
arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company, or that any Purchaser
could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement,
by
virtue of receiving Securities under the Transaction Documents or under any
other agreement between the Company and the Purchasers.
4.8 Non-Public
Information.
Except
with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Company covenants and agrees
that
on and after the date hereof neither it nor any other Person acting on its
behalf will provide any Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any information
that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless
prior thereto such Purchaser shall have executed a written agreement regarding
the confidentiality and use of such information. The Company understands and
confirms that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing representations
in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.
4.9 Use
of
Proceeds.
The
Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities for working
capital purposes and shall not use such proceeds for the satisfaction of any
portion of the Company’s debt (other than payment of trade payables in the
ordinary course of the Company’s business and prior practices), or to redeem any
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents or to settle any outstanding
litigation.
4.10 [RESERVED].
4.11 Indemnification
of Purchasers.
Subject
to the provisions of this Section 4.11, the Company will indemnify and hold
each
Purchaser and its directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners,
employees and agents (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent
role
of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any
other title), each Person who controls such Purchaser (within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the
directors, officers, shareholders, agents, members, partners or employees (and
any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such
titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such
controlling person (each, a “Purchaser
Party”)
harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims,
contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts
paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of
investigation that any such Purchaser Party may suffer or incur as a result
of
or relating to (a) any breach of any of the representations, warranties,
covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other
Transaction Documents or (b) any action instituted against a Purchaser, or
any
of them or their respective Affiliates, by any stockholder of the Company who
is
not an Affiliate of such Purchaser, with respect to any of the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents (unless such action is based upon
a
breach of such Purchaser’s representations, warranties or covenants under the
Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings such Purchaser may
have with any such stockholder or any violations by the Purchaser of state
or
federal securities laws or any conduct by such Purchaser which constitutes
fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance). If any action
shall
be brought against any Purchaser Party in respect of which indemnity may be
sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Purchaser Party shall promptly notify
the Company in writing, and the Company shall have the
23
right
to
assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing reasonably
acceptable to the Purchaser Party. Any Purchaser Party shall have the right
to
employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense
thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense
of
such Purchaser Party except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has
been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company has
failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ
counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of such
separate counsel, a material conflict on any material issue between the position
of the Company and the position of such Purchaser Party, in which case the
Company shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more
than one such separate counsel for all Purchaser Parties. The Company will
not
be liable to any Purchaser Party under this Agreement (i) for any settlement
by
a Purchaser Party effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (ii) to the extent, but only
to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to any
Purchaser Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or
agreements made by such Purchaser Party in this Agreement or in the other
Transaction Documents.
4.12 [Intentionally
Deleted]
4.13 [Intentionally
Deleted]
4.14 Equal
Treatment of Purchasers.
No
consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to
a
waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents
unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to the
Transaction Documents. Further, the Company shall not make any payment of
principal or interest on the Debentures in amounts which are disproportionate
to
the respective principal amounts outstanding on the Debentures at any applicable
time. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right
granted to each Purchaser by the Company and negotiated separately by each
Purchaser, and is intended for the Company to treat the Purchasers as a class
and shall not in any way be construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or
as
a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of Securities or
otherwise.
4.15 Short
Sales 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 execute any Short Sales during the period commencing
at the Discussion Time and ending at the time that the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement are first publicly announced as described in Section 4.6.
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 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). Each
Purchaser understands and acknowledges, severally and not jointly with any
other
Purchaser, that the Commission currently takes the position that coverage of
short sales of shares of the Common Stock “against the box” prior to the
Effective Date of the Registration Statement with the Securities is a violation
of Section 5 of the Securities Act, as set forth in Item 65, Section A, of
the
Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations, dated July 1997,
compiled by the Office of Chief Counsel, Division of Corporation Finance.
Notwithstanding the
24
foregoing,
no Purchaser makes any representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it
will
not engage in Short Sales in
the
securities of the Company after the time that 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 covenant set forth
above
shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio
manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Securities covered
by
this Agreement.
4.16 Form
D; Blue Sky Filings.
The
Company agrees to timely file a Form D with the Commission with respect to
the
Securities and to provide a copy thereof, promptly upon request of any
Purchaser. The Company shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably
determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the
Securities for, sale to the Purchasers at the Closing under applicable
securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States, and shall
provide evidence of such actions promptly upon request of any
Purchaser.
ARTICLE
V.
MISCELLANEOUS
5.1 Termination.
This Agreement may be terminated by any Purchaser, as to such Purchaser’s
obligations hereunder only and without any effect whatsoever on the obligations
between the Company and the other Purchasers, by written notice to the other
parties, if the Closing has not been consummated on or before October 31, 2006;
provided,
however,
that
such termination will not affect the right of any party to xxx for any breach
by
the other party (or parties).
5.2 Fees
and Expenses.
At the
Closing, the Company has agreed to reimburse Bushido Capital Master Fund, LP
(“Bushido”)
the
non-accountable sum of $10,000, for its legal fees and expenses. Accordingly,
in
lieu of the foregoing payments, the aggregate amount that Bushido is to pay
for
the Securities at the Closing shall be reduced by $10,000 in lieu thereof.
The
Company shall deliver to each Purchaser, prior to the Closing, a completed
and
executed copy of the Closing Statement attached hereto as Annex
A.
Except
as expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents to the contrary, each party
shall pay the fees and expenses of its advisers, counsel, accountants and other
experts, if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party incident to
the
negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement.
The Company shall pay all transfer agent fees, stamp taxes and other taxes
and
duties levied in connection with the delivery of any Securities to the
Purchasers.
5.3 Entire
Agreement.
The
Transaction Documents, together with the exhibits and schedules thereto, contain
the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter
hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written,
with respect to such matters, which the parties acknowledge have been merged
into such documents, exhibits and schedules.
25
5.4 Notices.
Any and
all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to
be
provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective

is delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number set forth on the signature
pages attached hereto prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading
Day,
(b) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or

Trading
Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally recognized
overnight courier service, or (d) upon actual receipt by the party to whom
such
notice is required to be given. The address for such notices and communications
shall be as set forth on the signature pages attached hereto.
5.5 Amendments;
Waivers.
No
provision of this Agreement may be waived, modified, supplemented or amended
except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by the
Company and each Purchaser 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 any party to exercise
any
right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such
right.
5.6 Headings.
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.
5.7 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 each Purchaser (other than by merger). Any Purchaser may assign
any
or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom such Purchaser
assigns or transfers any Securities, provided that (i) such transferee agrees
in
writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred Securities, by the
provisions of the Transaction Documents that apply to the “Purchasers,” (ii)
such transferee is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the
Securities Act or a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A(a)
under the Securities Act or (iii) such transfer does not violate any
representation or warranty made in this Agreement by the
Purchasers.
5.8 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, except as otherwise set
forth
in Section 4.11.
5.9 Governing
Law.
All
questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
of the Transaction Documents 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 legal
proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
26
any
other
Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective
affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be
commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of
New
York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of
the
state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, borough of Manhattan
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 suit, action or proceeding, any claim
that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that
such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for
such
proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process
and
consents to process being served in any such suit, action or 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 other
manner permitted by law. The parties hereby waive all rights to a trial by
jury.
If either party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions
of the Transaction Documents, then the prevailing party in such action or
proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorneys’
fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation
and prosecution of such action or proceeding.
5.10 Survival.
The
representations and warranties shall survive the Closing and the delivery of
the
Securities for the applicable statue of limitations.
5.11 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.
5.12 Severability.
If any
term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court
of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the
remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein
shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired
or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable
efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or
substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision,
covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the
intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may
be
hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.
5.13 Rescission
and Withdrawal Right.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting
any
similar provisions of) any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever any
Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a
27
Transaction
Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within
the periods therein provided, then such Purchaser 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
its
future actions and rights; provided,
however,
in the
case of a rescission of an exercise of a Warrant, the Purchaser shall be
required to return any shares of Common Stock delivered in connection with
any
such rescinded exercise notice.
5.14 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 (in the case of mutilation),
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 upon provision of an indemnity reasonably acceptable
to
the Company and the Transfer Agent. The applicant for a new certificate or
instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party
costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such
replacement Securities.
5.15 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 contained in the Transaction
Documents and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert in any action for
specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law
would be adequate.
5.16 Payment
Set Aside.
To the
extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser pursuant
to
any Transaction Document or a Purchaser enforces or exercises its 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.
5.17 Usury.
To the
extent it may lawfully do so, the Company hereby agrees not to insist upon
or
plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will resist any and all efforts
to
be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted,
now or at any time hereafter in force, in connection with any claim, action
or
proceeding that may be brought by any Purchaser in order to enforce any right
or
remedy under any Transaction Document. Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary contained in any Transaction Document, it is expressly agreed and
provided that the total liability of the Company under the Transaction Documents
for payments in the nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful
rate
authorized under applicable law (the “Maximum
Rate”),
and,
without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate of interest or
default interest, or both of them, when aggregated with any
28
other
sums in the nature of interest that the Company may be obligated to pay under
the Transaction Documents exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the
maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law and applicable to the
Transaction Documents is increased or decreased by statute or any official
governmental action subsequent to the date hereof, the new maximum contract
rate
of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to the
Transaction Documents from the effective date forward, unless such application
is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances whatsoever, interest
in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to any Purchaser with
respect to indebtedness evidenced by the Transaction Documents, such excess
shall be applied by such Purchaser to the unpaid principal balance of any such
indebtedness or be refunded to the Company, the manner of handling such excess
to be at such Purchaser’s election.
5.18 Independent
Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights.
The
obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and
not
joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be
responsible in any way for the performance or non-performance of the obligations
of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein
or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser
pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership,
an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a
presumption that the Purchasers 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 Purchaser 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 Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any
proceeding for such purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own
separate legal counsel in their review and negotiation of the Transaction
Documents. For reasons of administrative convenience only, Purchasers and their
respective counsel have chosen to communicate with the Company through FWS.
FWS
does not represent all of the Purchasers but only Bushido. The Company has
elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents
for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested
to do so by the Purchasers.
5.19 Liquidated
Damages.
The
Company’s obligations to pay any partial liquidated damages or other amounts
owing under the Transaction Documents is a continuing obligation of the Company
and shall not terminate until all unpaid partial liquidated damages and other
amounts have been paid notwithstanding the fact that the instrument or security
pursuant to which such partial liquidated damages or other amounts are due
and
payable shall have been canceled.
5.20 Construction.
The
parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel has reviewed
and
had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore, the
normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be
resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation
of the Transaction Documents or any amendments hereto.
