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. 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
11
disclosures controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating
to the Company, including its subsidiaries, is made known to the certifying
officers by others within those entities, particularly during the period in
which the Company's most recently filed period report under the Exchange Act, as
the case may be, is being prepared. The Company's certifying officers have
evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's controls and procedures as of the
date of its most recently filed period report under the Exchange Act (such date,
the "EVALUATION DATE"). The Company presented in its most recently filed period
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 significant changes in the Company's internal controls (as such term is
defined in Item 307(b) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act) or, the
Company's knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the
Company's internal controls and that had had or could reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect.

agent, investment banker, bank or other Person with respect to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, other than to XX Xxxxx Securities Inc., pursuant

any Person for fees of the type contemplated by this Section with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

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 in accordance with the terms of
the Transaction Documents. The issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder

an "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended.

listing requirements.

(x) TAX STATUS. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has made or

on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all unpaid and
unreported taxes) and has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and
charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such
returns, reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith
and has set aside on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of
all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports
or declarations apply. There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed
to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the
Company know of no basis for any such claim. The Company has not executed a
waiver with respect to the statute of limitations relating to the assessment or
collection of any foreign, federal, statue or local tax. None of the Company's
tax returns is presently being audited by any taxing authority.
(y) DISCLOSURE. The Company confirms that, neither the Company nor any
other Person acting on its behalf has provided any of the Purchasers or their
agents or counsel with any information that constitutes or might constitute

Purchasers will rely on the foregoing representations and covenants in effecting
transactions in securities of the Company. All disclosure provided to the
Purchasers regarding the Company, its business and the transactions contemplated
hereby, including the Schedules to this Agreement, furnished by or on behalf of
the Company with respect to the representations and warranties made herein are
true and correct with respect to such representations and warranties and do 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 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.

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.
(aa) 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 Company's fair
saleable value of its 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 for
the current fiscal year as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted
13
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 debt
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).
(bb) ACKNOWLEDGMENT REGARDING PURCHASERS' PURCHASE OF SECURITIES. The
Company acknowledges and agrees that the Purchasers are acting solely in the
capacity of arm's length purchasers with respect to this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby. 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 this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby and any statement made by any Purchaser or any of their
respective representatives or agents in connection with this Agreement and the
transactions contemplated hereby is not advice or a recommendation and 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 has been based solely on the independent evaluation of the Company and
its representatives.

fees owed to its accountants and lawyers.

authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of such Purchaser. Each
Transaction Document to which it is party has been duly executed by such

principal for its own account for investment purposes only and not with a view
to or for distributing or reselling such Securities or any part thereof, has no
present intention of distributing any of such Securities and has no arrangement

acquiring the Securities hereunder in the ordinary course of its business. Such
Purchaser does not have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly,
with any Person to distribute any of the Securities.
(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

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

be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the

shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified
limitations.

ARTICLE IV
OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
IV.1 TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.
(a) 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, 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, 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) Each Purchaser agrees to the imprinting, so long as is required by
this Section 4.1(b), of the following legend on any certificate evidencing
Securities:
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND
EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN
RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM 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
16
EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION
REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE
STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION
WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR
OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN "ACCREDITED
INVESTOR" AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.
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, 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 Shares and Warrant Shares shall not
contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b)), (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 Shares or Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) if such
Shares or Warrant Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k), or (iv) if
such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act
(including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the Staff of
the Commission). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to
the Company's transfer agent promptly after the Effective Date if required by
the Company's 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, such
Warrant Shares shall be issued free of all legends. The Company agrees that
following the Effective Date relating to the Shares and Warrant Shares or at
such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1(c), it
will, no later than five Trading Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to
the Company or the Company's transfer agent of a certificate representing Shares
or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, issued with a restrictive legend (such
date, the "Legend Removal Date"), deliver or cause to be delivered to such
Purchaser, either directly or to the Depository Trust Company account on the
Holder's behalf via the
17
Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission System, a certificate representing such
Securities that is free from all restrictive and other legends. The Company may
not make any notation on its records or give instructions to any transfer agent
of the Company that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this
Section.
(d) In addition to such Purchaser's other available remedies, the
Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a
penalty, for each $1,000 of Shares or Warrant Shares (based on the VWAP of the
Common Stock on the date such Securities are submitted to the Company's transfer
agent) subject to Section 4.1(c), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per
Trading Day five (5) Trading Days after such damages have begun to accrue) for
each Trading Day after such fifth Trading Day after the Legend Removal Date
until such certificate is delivered. 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.
IV.2 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 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 Securities under Rule
144. The Company further covenants that it will take such further action as any
holder of Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from
time to time to enable such Person to sell such Securities without registration
under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by
Rule 144.
IV.3 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 or that would 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 shareholder
approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless shareholder
approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction.
IV.4 SECURITIES LAWS DISCLOSURE; PUBLICITY. The Company shall, by 8:30
a.m. Eastern time on the Trading Day following the Closing Date, issue a press
release or file a
18
Current Report on Form 8-K, in each case reasonably acceptable to counsel for
the placement agent disclosing the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company
and such counsel for the placement agent shall consult with each other in
issuing any 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 counsel to the placement agent, with respect to any press
release of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, 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 the registration statement contemplated by the
Registration Rights Agreement 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 subclause
(i) or (ii).
IV.5 SHAREHOLDERS RIGHTS PLAN. No claim will be made or enforced by the
Company or, to the knowledge of the Company, any other Person that any Purchaser
is an "Acquiring Person" under any shareholders rights plan or similar 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.
IV.6 NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION. The Company covenants and agrees that
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.
IV.7 USE OF PROCEEDS. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.7 attached
hereto, the Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities
hereunder for working capital purposes and not 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), to redeem any
Company equity or equity equivalent securities or to settle any outstanding
litigation.
IV.8 INDEMNIFICATION OF PURCHASERS. Subject to the provisions of this
Section 4.8, the Company will indemnify and hold the Purchasers and their
directors, officers, shareholders, partners, employees and agents (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
19
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 representation,
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 right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own
choosing. 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. The Company will not be liable to any
Purchaser Party under this Agreement (i) for any settlement by an 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 the Purchasers in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents.
IV.9 RESERVATION OF COMMON STOCK. As of the date hereof, the Company
has reserved and the Company shall continue to reserve and keep available at all
times, free of preemptive rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock
for the purpose of enabling the Company to issue Shares pursuant to this
Agreement and Warrant Shares pursuant to any exercise of the Warrants.
IV.10 LISTING OF COMMON STOCK. The Company hereby agrees to use
commercially reasonably efforts to maintain the listing of the Common Stock on
the Trading Market, and as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing
(but not later than the earlier of the Effective Date and the first anniversary
of the Closing Date) to list all of the Shares and Warrant Shares on the Trading
Market. The Company further agrees, if the Company applies to have the Common
Stock traded on any other Trading Market, it will include in such application
all of the Shares and Warrant Shares, and will take such other action as is
necessary to cause the Shares and Warrant Shares to be listed on such other
Trading Market as promptly as possible. The Company will take all action
reasonably necessary to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on
a Trading Market and will comply in all respects with the Company's reporting,
filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Trading Market.
IV.11 PARTICIPATION IN FUTURE FINANCING. From the date hereof until 90
days after the Effective Date, the Company shall not effect a financing of its
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (a "Subsequent Financing") unless (i)
the Company delivers to each of the Purchasers hereunder a written notice at
least 10 Trading Days prior to the closing of such
20
Subsequent Financing (the "Subsequent Financing Notice") of its intention to
effect such Subsequent Financing, which Subsequent Financing Notice shall
describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing,
the amount of proceeds intended to be raised thereunder, the Person with whom
such Subsequent Financing is proposed to be effected, and attached to which
shall be a term sheet or similar document relating thereto and (ii) such
Purchaser shall not have notified the Company by 6:30 p.m. (New York City time)
on the fifth (5th) Trading Day after its receipt of the Subsequent Financing
Notice of its willingness to provide (or to cause its designee to provide),
subject to completion of mutually acceptable documentation, up to its Pro-Rata
Portion (as defined below) of 50% of proceeds to be raised in such Subsequent
Financing (the "Subsequent Financing Percentage") to the Company on the same
terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice. If one or more Purchasers
shall fail to so notify the Company of their willingness to participate in their
Pro-Rata Portion of the Subsequent Financing Percentage, the Company may effect
the remaining portion of such Subsequent Financing on the terms and to the
Persons set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice; provided that the Company
must provide the Purchasers with a second Subsequent Financing Notice, and the
Purchasers will again have the right of first refusal set forth above in this
Section 4.11, if the Subsequent Financing subject to the initial Subsequent
Financing Notice is not consummated for any reason on the terms set forth in
such Subsequent Financing Notice within 60 Trading Days after the date of the
initial Subsequent Financing Notice with the Person identified in the Subsequent
Financing Notice. "Pro Rata Portion" is the ratio of (x) such Purchaser's
Subscription Amount and (y) the aggregate sum of all of the Subscription
Amounts. If any Purchaser no longer holds any Shares, then the Pro Rata Portions
shall be re-allocated among the remaining Purchasers. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein, this Section 4.11 shall not apply in respect of the
issuance of the following: (a) shares of Common Stock, options or warrants to
employees, key consultants, service providers, advisors, officers or directors
of the Company pursuant to any stock or option plan duly adopted by a majority
of the non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company or a
majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for
such purpose, (b) securities upon the exercise of or conversion of any
convertible securities, options or warrants issued and outstanding on the date
of this Agreement, provided that such securities have not been amended since the
date of this Agreement, (c) securities in connection with acquisitions or
strategic investments (including, without limitation, any licensing or
distribution arrangements), the primary purpose of which is not to raise capital
(except as in (e) below), (d) securities to financial institutions or lessors in
connection with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar
transactions, where the principal consideration for such transaction is not the
issuance of such securities, or (e) any warrants issued to XX Xxxxx Securities
Inc. and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise thereof.
IV.12 SUBSEQUENT EQUITY SALES. From the date hereof until 30 days after
the Effective Date, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall issue shares of
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, the 30 day period
set forth in this Section 4.12 shall be extended for the number of Trading Days
during such period in which (y) trading in the Common Stock is suspended by any
Trading Market, or (z) following the Effective Date, the Registration Statement
is not effective or the prospectus included in the Registration Statement may
not be used by the Purchasers for the resale of the Shares and Warrant Shares.
21
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.12 shall not apply in respect of
the issuance of: (a) shares of Common Stock, options or warrants to employees,
key consultants, service providers, advisors, officers or directors of the

arrangements), the primary purpose of which is not to raise capital (except as
in (e) below), (d) securities to financial institutions or lessors in connection
with commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar
transactions, where the principal consideration for such transaction is not the
issuance of such securities or (e) any warrants issued to XX Xxxxx Securities
Inc. and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise thereof.
IV.13 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. 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 to treat for the Company 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.

or amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment,
by the Company and each of the Purchaser or, in the case of a waiver, by the
party against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No waiver of any
default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this
Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of
any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or
requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise
any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.
V.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.
V.6 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns.
The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of the Purchasers. Any Purchaser may assign
its rights under this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement to any
Person to whom such Purchaser assigns or transfers any Securities.
V.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, except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.5.
V.8 GOVERNING LAW; VENUE; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. All questions
concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this
Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the
internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of
conflicts of law thereof. Each party 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 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
23
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.
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 this Agreement,
then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by
the other party for its attorneys fees and other costs and expenses incurred
with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or
proceeding.
V.9 SURVIVAL. The representations, warranties and covenants contained
herein shall survive the Closing and delivery and/or exercise of the Securities,
as applicable.
V.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, 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 signature page
were an original thereof.
V.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.
V.12 RESCISSION AND WITHDRAWAL RIGHT. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the
Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election,
demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely
perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such
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.
V.13 REPLACEMENT OF SECURITIES. If any certificate or instrument
evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company
shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon
cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate
or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable
indemnity, if requested. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument
under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs
associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.
V.14 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
24
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 agrees to waive in any action for
specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law
would be adequate.
V.15 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.
V.16 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 of the obligations of any other
Purchaser under any Transaction Document. The decision of each Purchaser to
purchase Securities pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Purchaser
independently of any other Purchaser and independently of any information,
materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations,
assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or
otherwise) or prospects of the Company or of the Subsidiary which may have been
made or given by any other Purchaser or by any agent or employee of any other
Purchaser, and no Purchaser or any of its agents or employees shall have any
liability to any other Purchaser (or any other person) relating to or arising
from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing contained
herein or in any 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 Document. 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 Xxxxxxx
Xxxxxxxxx LLP. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx LLP does not represent the Purchasers but only
X.X. Xxxxx Securities, Inc. 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.
V.17 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. The Company's obligations to pay any
liquidated damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction Documents is a
continuing obligation of the Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid
liquidated damages and other amounts have been paid notwithstanding the fact
that the instrument or security pursuant to which such liquidated damages or
other amounts are due and payable shall have been canceled.
