The Company presented in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year most recently ended the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the most recent Evaluation Date. Since the most recent Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls (as such term is defined in Item 307(b) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act) or, to the Company’s knowledge, in other factors that would significantly adversely affect the Company’s internal controls.

No “Bad Actor” disqualifying event described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) of the Securities Act (a “Disqualification Event”) is applicable to the Company, except for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule 506(d)(2)(ii–iv) or (d)(3), is applicable; provided that, for purposes of this representation and warranty, the Company relied exclusively on completed and executed questionnaires delivered to the Company by its directors and executive officers and beneficial owners of twenty percent (20%) or more of the Company’s outstanding voting equity securities.

2.21 Environmental Laws. The Company (i) is in compliance with any and all Environmental Laws (as hereinafter defined), (ii) has received all permits, licenses or other approvals required of it under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct its business and (iii) is in compliance with all terms and conditions of any such permit, license or approval except where, in each of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the failure to so comply would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The term “Environmental Laws” means all federal, state, local or foreign laws relating to pollution or protection of human health or the environment (including, without limitation, ambient air, surface water, groundwater, land surface or subsurface strata), including, without limitation, laws relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases of chemicals, pollutants, contaminants, or toxic or hazardous substances or wastes (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”) into the environment, or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of

11

Hazardous Materials, as well as all authorizations, codes, decrees, demands or demand letters, injunctions, judgments, licenses, notices or notice letters, orders, permits, plans or regulations issued, entered, promulgated or approved thereunder.

2.22 Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.  None of the Company, the Subsidiaries, or, to the knowledge of the Company, any agent or other person acting in the course of its actions on behalf of the Company or the Subsidiaries, has, directly or indirectly, (i) used any corporate funds, or will use any proceeds from the sale of the Securities, for unlawful contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses related to foreign or domestic political activity, (ii) made any unlawful influence payment to foreign or domestic government officials or to any foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns from corporate funds, or (iii) violated in any material respect any provision of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder which was or is applicable to the Company or any of the Subsidiaries.

2.23 Compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The operations of the Company are and have been conducted at all times in compliance with applicable financial recordkeeping and reporting requirements and all other applicable U.S. and non-U.S. anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, those of the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of 1970, as amended, the USA Patriot Act of 2001 and the applicable money laundering statutes of all applicable jurisdictions, the rules and regulations thereunder and any related or similar rules, regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by any governmental agency (collectively, the “Anti-Money Laundering Laws”), the Company has in place policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure that its and its Subsidiaries’, if any, operations will continue to be conducted in compliance with all applicable Money Laundering Laws and no action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving the Company or the Subsidiaries with respect to the Anti-Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened.

2.24 Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act. The Company is in compliance in all material respects with any and all applicable requirements of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, as amended, that are effective as of the date hereof, and any and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC thereunder that are effective as of the date hereof.

2.25 Application of Takeover Protections. The Company and its board of directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, interested stockholder, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or other organizational documents or the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation which is or could become applicable to any Purchaser as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Company’s issuance of the Securities and any Purchaser’s ownership of the Securities.

2.26 Insurance. The Company is insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as management of the Company believes to be prudent and customary in the business in which the Company is engaged. The Company has not been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for, the refusal of which would reasonably

12

be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has no 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 at a cost that would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

2.27 Title. The Company has marketable title to all personal property owned by it which is material to the business of the Company, in each case free and clear of all Liens except for Liens which 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. Any real property and facilities held under material lease by the Company are held by it under valid and enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by the Company.

2.28 Third Party Indebtedness. Other than the Existing Convertible Notes and indebtedness incurred in the ordinary course of business, the Company does not have any indebtedness for borrowed money that is owed to a third party.

3.8 Validity; Enforcement. This Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement have been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of such Purchaser and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Purchaser enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with their terms. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement by such Purchaser and the consummation by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not result in a violation of the organizational documents of such Purchaser.

3.9 Prior Investment Experience. Such Purchaser acknowledges that it has prior investment experience, including investment in securities of the type being sold, including the Securities, and has read all of the documents furnished or made available by the Company to it and is able to evaluate the merits and risks of such an investment on its behalf, and that it recognizes the highly speculative nature of this investment.

3.10 Tax Consequences. Such Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has made no representation regarding the potential or actual tax consequences for such Purchaser that will result from entering into this Agreement and from consummation of the Sale. Such Purchaser

14

acknowledges that it bears complete responsibility for obtaining adequate tax advice for such Purchaser itself regarding this Agreement and the Sale.

Such Purchaser agrees that neither such Purchaser nor its controlling Persons, officers, directors, partners, agents or employee shall be liable to any other Purchaser for any action heretofore taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the purchase of the Securities, the Note Shares and the Warrant Shares.

3.14 No Disqualifying Events. Neither (a) such Purchaser; nor (b) any of such Purchaser’s directors, executive officers, other officers that may serve as a director or officer of any company in which it invests, general partners or managing members, is subject to any of Disqualification Events, except for Disqualification Events covered by Rule 506(d)(2)(ii) or (iii) or (d)(3) under the Securities Act and disclosed reasonably in advance of the Closing in writing in reasonable detail to the Company.

3.15 No Short Sales. Such Purchaser has not engaged in any “short sales” (as defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO of the Exchange Act) of the Common Stock or instructed any third parties to engage in any short sales of the Common Stock on such Purchaser’s behalf prior to the Closing Date. Such Purchaser covenants and agrees that it will not be in a net short position with respect to the shares of Common Stock. For purposes of this Section 3.15, a “net short position” means a sale of Common Stock by a Purchaser that is marked as a short sale and that is made at a time when there is no equivalent offsetting long position in Common Stock held by such Purchaser.

Section 4. Covenants of the Company.
