(v) Transactions With Affiliates and Employees. None of the officers, directors or employees of the Company, or any of their respective Affiliates or family members, is presently a party to any material transaction with the Company (other than for services as employees, officers and directors), that is required to be disclosed in the SEC Reports and is not so disclosed.

(w) Tax Status. The Company (i) has made or filed all federal and state income and all other tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject, (ii) 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 (iii) has set aside on its books provision 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 no officer of the Company knows of any basis for any such claim.

(x) Internal Accounting Controls. The Company maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company is made known to the certifying officers, and the officers responsible for the preparation of the reports required to be filed under the Exchange Act, by others within the Company, particularly during the period in which the Company’s reports on Form 10-K or 10-Q, as the case may be, are being prepared. The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s controls and procedures as of the last day of the period covered by the Form 10-K for the Company’s most recently ended fiscal year and Form 10-Q for each fiscal quarter subsequent to such fiscal year end (each, an “Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its most recently filed Form 10-K and Form 10-Q the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the applicable Evaluation Date. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls, as described in Item 308(c) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act, or, to the Company’s knowledge, in other factors that would significantly affect the Company’s internal controls.

(y) Solvency. Based on the financial condition of the Company as of the Closing Date (and assuming that the Closing shall have occurred), 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).

(z) Certain Fees. Except for sales commissions not to exceed 6% payable to certain Finra-registered broker dealers and the Company’s obligation to reimburse a certain placement agent expenses, 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 this Agreement. The Investors shall have no obligation with respect to any fees or with respect to any claims (other than such fees or commissions owed by an Investor pursuant to an agreement by such Investor, which fees or commissions shall be the sole responsibility of such Investor) 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 this Agreement. The Company shall pay, and hold each Investor harmless against, any liability, loss or expense (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees and out-of-pocket expenses) arising in connection with any such claim.

(aa) Certain Registration Matters. Assuming the accuracy of the Investors’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2(b)-(e), no registration under the Securities Act is required for the offer and sale of the Shares by the Company to the Investors under the Transaction Documents. The Company has not granted or agreed to grant to any Person any rights (including “piggy-back” registration rights) to have any securities of the Company registered with the Commission or any other governmental authority, other than the registration rights afforded to the holders of the Company’s securities the resale of which is registered pursuant to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1, File Number 333-194694.

(bb) No General Solicitation. Neither the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D) in connection with the offer or sale of the Shares.

(cc) No Registration or Stockholder Approval Required. 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 require registration of any of the Shares under the Securities Act, whether due to integration with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act or otherwise. None of the Company, its affiliates and any Person acting on its or their behalf will take any action or steps referred to in the preceding sentence that would require registration of any of the Shares under the Securities Act. The offering, issuance and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement, taking into account all other offerings of securities of the Company with which the same may be required to be integrated, do not require the approval of the Company’s stockholders under the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, the rules and regulations of any Trading Market on which any securities of the Company may be listed or traded, or any other applicable laws or regulations.

(dd) Listing and Maintenance Requirements. The Company has not, in the two years preceding the date hereof, received notice from any Trading Market to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements thereof, including the requirements for causing the Common Stock to remain an OTC-Eligible Security within the meaning of FINRA Rule 6530. The Company is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue to be, in compliance with the requirements for continued listing or trading of the Common Stock on the Principal Market, including the requirements of FINRA Rule 6530. The issuance and sale of the Shares under the Transaction Documents does not contravene the rules and regulations of the Principal Market.

(ff) No Additional Agreements. The Company does not have any agreement or understanding with any Investor with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents other than as specified in the Transaction Documents.

(gg) Disclosure. After giving effect to the actions and filings required by Section 4.5, the Company confirms that neither it nor any Person acting on its behalf has provided any Investor or its respective agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material, non-public information.

3.2 Representations and Warranties of the Investors. Each Investor hereby, severally for itself and not for or jointly with any other Investor, represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

(a) Organization; Authority. Such Investor is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization with the requisite corporate, partnership or company power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the applicable Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its obligations thereunder. The execution, delivery and performance by such Investor of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or, if such Investor is not a corporation, such partnership, limited liability company or other applicable like action, on the part of such Investor. Each of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement has been duly executed by such Investor, and when delivered by such Investor in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of such Investor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditors’ rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application.

(b) Investment Intent. Such Investor is acquiring the Shares as principal for its own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling such Shares or any part thereof, without prejudice, however, to such Investor’s right at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Shares in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, nothing contained herein shall be deemed a covenant or agreement by such Investor to hold the Shares for any period of time. Such Investor is acquiring the Shares hereunder in the ordinary course of its business. Such Investor does not have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any Person to distribute any of the Shares.

(c) Investor Status. At the time such Investor was offered the Shares, it was, and at the date hereof it is, an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act. Such Investor is not a registered broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act.

(d) General Solicitation. Such Investor is not purchasing the Shares as a result of any general solicitation or general advertising by the Company or its representatives, including but not limited to any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding the Shares published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar.

(e) Access to Information. Such Investor acknowledges that it has reviewed the Disclosure Materials and has been afforded (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Shares and the merits and risks of investing in the Shares; (ii) access to information about the Company and its respective financial condition, results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable it to evaluate its investment; and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such additional information that the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the investment. Neither such inquiries nor any other investigation conducted by or on behalf of such Investor or its representatives or counsel shall modify, amend or affect such Investor’s right to rely on the truth, accuracy and completeness of the Disclosure Materials and the Company’s representations and warranties contained in the Transaction Documents.

(f) Certain Trading Activities. Such Investor has not directly or indirectly, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Investor, engaged in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any short sales involving the Company’s securities) between the time that such Investor was first contacted by the Company, regarding an investment in the Company and the date of this Agreement. Such Investor covenants that neither it, nor any person acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it, will engage in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including short sales) (a) prior to the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed, or (b) in violation of any laws or any rules or regulations of the Commission.

(g) Independent Investment Decision. Such Investor has independently evaluated the merits and risks of its decision to purchase Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents, and such Investor confirms that it has not relied on the advice of any other Investor’s business and/or legal counsel in making such decision. Such Investor has not relied on the business or legal advice of any Company agent in making its investment decision hereunder, and confirms that none of such Persons has made any representations or warranties to such Investor in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

(h) Consents and Approvals. Such Investor need not give any notice to, make any filing with, or obtain any authorization, consent, or approval (i) of any person under any instrument, contract or agreement to which such Investor or any of its Affiliates is a party or (ii) of any government or governmental agency in order to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents, consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder, other than those that have been or will be by the Closing Date given, made or obtained.

(i) Non-Contravention. To the knowledge of the such Investor, neither the execution nor the delivery of the Transaction Documents by such Investor, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and the performance by such Investor of its obligations hereunder or thereunder will violate any constitution, statute, regulation, rule, injunction, judgment, order, decree, ruling, charge, or other restriction of any government, governmental agency or court to which such Investor is subject or any instrument, contract, or agreement to which such Investor or any of its Affiliates is a party.

(j) Finder. The Company will not be obligated to pay any broker’s commission, finder’s fee or success fee in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents as a result of any agreement or arrangement entered into by such Investor.

(k) The Investor should check the OFAC website at <xxxx://xxx.xxxxx.xxx/xxxx> before making the following representations. Such Investor represents that the amounts invested by it in the Company in the offering were not and are not directly or indirectly derived from activities that contravene federal, state or international laws and regulations, including Anti-Money Laundering Laws. Federal regulations and executive orders administered by OFAC prohibit, among other things, the engagement in transactions with, and the provision of services to, certain foreign countries, territories, entities and individuals. The lists of OFAC prohibited countries, territories, persons and entities can be found on the OFAC website referred to above. In addition, the programs administered by OFAC (the “OFAC Programs”) prohibit dealing with individuals or entities in certain countries regardless of whether such individuals or entities appear on the OFAC lists. These individuals include specially designated nationals, specially designated narcotics traffickers and other parties subject to OFAC sanctions and embargo programs.

(l) To such Investor’s knowledge, none of: (1) such Investor; (2) any person controlling or controlled by such Investor; (3) if such Investor is a privately-held entity, any person having a beneficial interest in such Investor; or (4) any person for whom such Investor is acting as agent or nominee in connection with this investment is a country, territory, individual or entity named on an OFAC list, or a person or entity prohibited under the OFAC Programs. Please be advised that the Company may not accept any amounts from a prospective investor if such prospective investor cannot make the representation set forth in the preceding paragraph. Such Investor agrees to promptly notify the Company should such Investor become aware of any change in the information set forth in this paragraph and in Section 3.2(k).

(m) To such Investor’s knowledge, none of: (1) such Investor; (2) any person controlling or controlled by such Investor; (3) if such Investor is a privately-held entity, any person having a beneficial interest in such Investor; or (4) any person for whom such Investor is acting as agent or nominee in connection with this investment is a senior foreign political figure, or any immediate family member or close associate of a senior foreign political figure. For purposes of this paragraph, a “senior foreign political figure” means a senior official in the executive, legislative, administrative, military or judicial branches of a foreign government (whether elected or not), a senior official of a major foreign political party, or a senior executive of a foreign government-owned corporation, or any corporation, business or other entity that has been formed by, or for the benefit of, such a senior foreign political figure; “immediate family” of a senior foreign political figure typically includes the figure’s parents, siblings, spouse, children and in-laws; and a “close associate” of a senior foreign political figure means a person who is widely and publicly known to maintain an unusually close relationship with the senior foreign political figure, and includes a person who is in a position to conduct substantial domestic and international financial transactions on behalf of the senior foreign political figure.

(n) If such Investor is affiliated with a non-U.S. banking institution (a “Foreign Bank”), or if such Investor receives deposits from, makes payments on behalf of, or handles other financial transactions related to a Foreign Bank, such Investor represents and warrants to the Company that: (1) the Foreign Bank has a fixed address, other than solely an electronic address, in a country in which the Foreign Bank is authorized to conduct banking activities; (2) the Foreign Bank maintains operating records related to its banking activities; (3) the Foreign Bank is subject to inspection by the banking authority that licensed the Foreign Bank to conduct banking activities; and (4) the Foreign Bank does not provide banking services to any other Foreign Bank that does not have a physical presence in any country and that is not a regulated affiliate.

(o) If the Investor is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), such Investor hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Shares or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Shares, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale, or transfer of the Shares. Such Investor’s subscription and payment for and continued beneficial ownership of the Shares will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of the Investor’s jurisdiction.

ARTICLE IV.

OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

4.1 (a) The Shares may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of the Shares other than pursuant to an effective registration statement, the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor, 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 Shares under the Securities Act. Each Investor acknowledges that the Company was previously a Shell Company, as stated in Section 3.1(i), and, accordingly, that holders of shares of Common Stock constituting restricted securities (including all Shares purchased by the Investors under this Agreement) will be subject to Rule 144(i)(2). Each Investor further acknowledges that the Common Stock does not currently constitute a marginable security under the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board.

(b) Certificates evidencing the Shares will contain the following legend, until such time as they are not required under Section 4.1(c):

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 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.

(c) Certificates evidencing the Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b)): (i) following a sale of such Shares pursuant to an effective registration statement (including the Registration Statement) covering the resale of such Shares, or (ii) following a sale of such Shares pursuant to Rule 144. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause its counsel to issue any legal opinion or instruction required by the Company’s transfer agent to comply with the requirements set forth in this Section. Following such time as restrictive legends are not required to be placed on certificates representing Shares pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Company will, no later than four Trading Days following the delivery by an Investor to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a certificate representing Shares containing a restrictive legend, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Investor 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 any transfer agent of the Company that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4.1.

4.2 Furnishing of Information. Until the date on which the Investors shall have sold all the Shares, the Company shall timely file all reports required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act, and the Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the Exchange Act even if the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would otherwise permit such termination. The Company further covenants that it will take such further action as any holder of Shares may reasonably request, to the extent required from time to time to facilitate transfers without registration under the Securities Act pursuant to the exemptions provided by Rule 144, once such Rule becomes available to holders of Common Stock.

4.3 Integration. The Company shall not, and shall use its best efforts to ensure that no Affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Shares to the Investors, or that would require stockholder approval of the sale of the Shares to the Investors under the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, the rules and regulations of any Trading Market or any other applicable laws or regulations.

4.4 Subsequent Registrations. Prior to the Filing Date, the Company may not file any registration statement with the Commission with respect to any securities of the Company, other than a registration statement on Form S-8.

4.5 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. By 9:45 a.m. (New York City time) on the day following the Initial Closing, the Company shall issue a press release disclosing the sale of the Shares and the material terms of the Transaction Documents. On the third Trading Day after the Initial Closing, the Company will file a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing the material terms of the Transaction Documents (and attach as exhibits thereto the Transaction Documents) and disclosing any material nonpublic information provided to the Investors in connection with the Transaction. In addition, the Company will make such other filings and notices in the manner and time required by the Commission and the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is listed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Investor, or include the name of any Investor in any filing with the Commission (other than the Registration Statement and any exhibits to filings made in respect of this transaction in accordance with periodic filing requirements under the Exchange Act) or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without the prior written consent of such Investor, except to the extent such disclosure is required by law or Trading Market regulations.

4.6 Indemnification of Investors. In addition to the indemnity provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company will indemnify and hold each Investor and its directors, officers, shareholders, partners, employees and agents (each, an “Investor 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 (collectively, “Losses”) that any such Investor Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to any misrepresentation or breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Company in any Transaction Document.

4.7 Non-Public Information. The Company covenants and agrees that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf will provide any Investor or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Investor shall have expressly consented to such disclosure and have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information.

4.8 Listing of Shares. The Company agrees, (i) if the Company applies to have the Common Stock listed or traded on any Trading Market other than the Principal Market, it will include the Shares in such application, and will take such other action as is necessary or desirable to cause the Shares to be listed on such other Trading Market as promptly as possible, and (ii) it will take all action reasonably necessary to cause the Common Stock to continue to be an OTC-Eligible Security within the meaning of FINRA Rule 6530 and, once commenced, to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on such other Trading Market and will comply in all material respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Trading Market.

4.9 Use of Proceeds. The Company will use the net proceeds from the sale of the Shares hereunder for, and only for, corporate purposes.

4.10 Form D and Blue Sky. The Company agrees to file a Form D with respect to the Shares as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to each Investor promptly after such filing. The Company shall make all filings and reports, and pay all related filing fees, relating to the offer and sale of the Shares required under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States.

The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of all the Investors.

6.8 Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all Proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the New York Courts. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts 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 the any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such New York Court, or that such Proceeding has been commenced in an improper or inconvenient forum. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. If either party shall commence a Proceeding to enforce any provisions of a Transaction Document, then the prevailing party in such Proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such Proceeding.

6.9 Survival. The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive until the second anniversary of the Closing. The agreements and covenants contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Shares in accordance with their respective terms.

6.10 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 each other party, it being understood that all 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 the same (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page were an original thereof.

6.11 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.

6.12 Replacement of Certificates. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Shares 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 replacements. If a replacement certificate or instrument evidencing any Shares is requested due to a mutilation thereof, the Company may require delivery of such mutilated certificate or instrument as a condition precedent to any issuance of a replacement.

6.13 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Investors and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

6.14 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Investor pursuant to any Transaction Document or an Investor 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.

6.15 Independent Nature of Investors’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Investor under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Investor under any Transaction Document. The decision of each Investor to purchase Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Investor independently of any other Investor. Nothing contained herein or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investors 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 Investor acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Investor will be acting as agent of such Investor in connection with monitoring its investment in the Shares or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents. Each Investor 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 Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that each of the Investors has been provided with the same Transaction Documents for the purpose of closing a transaction with multiple Investors and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Investor.

6.16 Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company acknowledges and agrees that the liability of an Investor arising, directly or indirectly, under any Transaction Document of any and every nature whatsoever shall be satisfied solely out of the assets of such Investor, and that no trustee, officer, other investment vehicle or any other Affiliate of such Investor or any investor, shareholder or holder of shares of beneficial interest of such Investor shall be personally liable for any liabilities of such Investor.
