For purposes herein, “Exchange Act Documents” are the documents filed by the Company under the Exchange Act, since the end of its most recently completed fiscal year through the date hereof, including, without limitation, its most recent report on Form 10-K.
3.21 Dilution; Sales By Purchasers. 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 this Agreement and the Warrants, including without limitation its obligation to issue the Warrants, are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of setoff, 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. Anything in this Agreement or elsewhere herein to the contrary notwithstanding (except for Section 4.5 and Article 8 hereof and Section 4.3 of the Warrants), it is understood and agreed by the Company (i) that none of the Purchasers have been asked by the Company 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 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
6
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.
3.22 Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx; Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company is in compliance in all material respects with all of the provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 that are applicable to it. Except as disclosed in the SEC Documents, the Company has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) that are effective in all material respects to ensure that material information relating to the Company is made known to its chief executive officer and chief financial officer by others within the Company. 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 its most recently filed quarterly or annual periodic report under the Exchange Act (such date, the “Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its most recently filed quarterly or annual periodic report under the Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
3.23 Taxes. The Company has filed (or has obtained an extension of time within which to file) all necessary federal, state and foreign income and franchise tax returns and has paid all taxes shown as due on such tax returns, except where the failure to so file or the failure to so pay would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
3.24 Insurance. The Company is insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as the Company believes are prudent and customary for a company (i) in the business in which the Company is engaged, (ii) with the resources of the Company and (iii) at a similar stage of development as the Company. The Company has not received any written notice that the Company will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires. The Company believes it will be able to obtain similar coverage at reasonable cost from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business.
ARTICLE 4
REPRESENTATIONS,
WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE PURCHASERS
Each Purchaser hereby severally, and not jointly, represents and warrants to the Company on and as of the date hereof:
4.1 Authorization. Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company that: (a) Purchaser has all requisite legal and corporate or other power and capacity and has taken all requisite corporate or other action to execute and deliver this Agreement, to purchase the Common Shares and the Warrants to be purchased by it and to carry out and perform all of its obligations under this Agreement; and (b) this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding
7
obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (ii) as limited by equitable principles generally.
4.2 Investment Experience. Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act. Purchaser is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has had access to and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Common Shares and the Warrants. Purchaser has such business and financial experience as is required to give it the capacity to protect its own interests in connection with the purchase of the Common Shares and Warrants.
4.3 Investment Intent. Purchaser is purchasing the Common Shares and the Warrants for its own account as principal, for investment purposes only, and not with a present view to, or for, resale, distribution or fractionalization thereof, in whole or in part, within the meaning of the Securities Act, other than as contemplated by Article 7. Purchaser understands that its acquisition of the Common Shares and the Warrants has not been registered under the Securities Act or registered or qualified under any state securities law in reliance on specific exemptions therefrom, which exemptions may depend upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Purchaser’s investment intent as expressed herein. Purchaser has completed or caused to be completed the Purchaser Questionnaire attached hereto as Exhibit B for use in preparation of the Registration Statement, and the responses provided therein shall be true and correct as of the Closing Date and will be true and correct as of the effective date of the Registration Statement. Purchaser, in connection with its decision to purchase the Common Shares and the Warrants, has relied solely upon the SEC Documents and the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein. Purchaser will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of (or solicit any offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge of) any of the Securities except in compliance with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
4.4 Registration or Exemption Requirements. Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the Securities may not be resold or otherwise transferred except in a transaction registered under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available.
(a) Purchaser will not, prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, if then prohibited by law or regulation: (i) sell, offer to sell, solicit offers to buy, dispose of, loan, pledge or grant any right with respect to (collectively, a “Disposition”) the Securities; or (ii) engage in any hedging or other transaction which is designed or could reasonably be expected to lead to or result in a Disposition of Securities by such Purchaser or an affiliate. In addition, Purchaser agrees that for so long as it owns any Shares, it will not enter into any short sale of the Common Stock executed at a time when the Purchaser has no equivalent offsetting long position in the Common Stock. For purposes of determining whether the Purchaser has an equivalent offsetting long position in the Common Stock, shares of Common Stock that the Purchaser is
8
entitled to receive within 60 days (whether pursuant to contract or upon conversion or exercise of convertible securities) will be included as if held long by the Purchaser.
(b) Purchaser has not directly or indirectly, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Purchaser, engaged in any transactions in the Company’s securities (including, without limitation, any Short Sales involving the Company’s securities) since the time that such Purchaser was first contacted by the Company, XX Xxxxx & Co., LLC, Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx, LLC or any other Person regarding the transactions contemplated hereby. Such Purchaser 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 Company’s securities (including, without limitation, any Short Sales involving the Company’s securities) prior to the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed.
For purposes of this Section 4.5(b), (i) “Person” shall include, without limitation, any individual or corporation, partnership, trust, incorporated or unincorporated association, joint venture, limited liability company or joint stock company and (ii) “Short Sales” shall include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act and all types of direct and indirect stock pledges, forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, short sales, swaps and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), and sales and other transactions through non-U.S. broker-dealers or foreign regulated brokers.
4.6 No Legal, Tax or Investment Advice. Purchaser understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials presented to Purchaser in connection with the purchase and sale of the Common Shares and the Warrants constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. Purchaser has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of the Common Shares and the Warrants.
4.7 Confidentiality. Purchaser will hold in confidence all information concerning this Agreement and the placement of the Securities hereunder until the earlier of such time as (a) the Company has made a public announcement concerning the Agreement and the placement of the Securities hereunder or (b) this Agreement is terminated.
4.8 Residency. Purchaser’s executive offices in which its investment decision was made are in the jurisdiction indicated below such Purchaser’s name on the applicable signature page hereto.
4.9 Governmental Review. Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities.
(a) Purchaser understands that, until such time as the Registration Statement has been declared effective or the Securities may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a
9
particular date that can then be immediately sold, the Securities may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop transfer order may be placed against transfer of the certificates for the Shares):
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS UNLESS OFFERED, SOLD OR TRANSFERRED PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THOSE LAWS.”
(b) The Company agrees that at such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 4.10, it will, no later than three business days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a certificate representing Common Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend and a signed and completed certificate of sale in substantially the form of Exhibit E attached hereto, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such shares that is free from any legend referring to the Securities Act. The Company shall 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. Certificates for Securities subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the transfer agent of the Company to the Purchasers by crediting the account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company. All costs and expenses related to the removal of the legends and the reissuance of any Securities shall be borne by the Company.

15
from which such Loss resulted and (B) the final prospectus corrected such untrue statement or omission, (ii) (X) such untrue statement or omission is corrected in an amendment or supplement to the prospectus and (Y) having previously been furnished by or on behalf of the Company with copies of the prospectus as so amended or supplemented or, if Rule 172 is then in effect, notified by the Company that such amended or supplemented prospectus has been filed with the SEC, such Purchaser thereafter fails to deliver such prospectus as so amended or supplemented, with or prior to, or, if Rule 172 is then in effect, such Purchaser fails to confirm that the prospectus as so amended or supplemented was deemed to be delivered prior to, the delivery of written confirmation of the sale of a Registrable Share to the person asserting the claim from which such Loss resulted or (iii) such Purchaser sold Registrable Shares in violation of such Purchaser’s covenant contained in Section 7.4 of this Agreement.
(b) Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company (and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who signs the Registration Statement and each director of the Company), from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company (or any such officer, director or controlling person) may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise), insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon, any material breach of this Agreement by such Purchaser or any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in each case, on the effective date thereof, if, and to the extent, such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of such Purchaser specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement, and such Purchaser will reimburse the Company (and each of its officers, directors or controlling persons) for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim; provided, however, that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 7.3(b) be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of (i) the purchase price of the Registrable Shares included in the Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation and (ii) the amount of any damages such Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission) received by such Purchaser upon the sale of such Registrable Shares.
(c) Promptly after receipt by any indemnified person of a notice of a claim or the beginning of any action in respect of which indemnity is to be sought against an indemnifying person pursuant to this Section 7.3, such indemnified person shall notify the indemnifying person in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such action, and, subject to the provisions hereinafter stated, in case any such action shall be brought against an indemnified person and such indemnifying person shall have been notified thereof, such indemnifying person shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it shall wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified person. After notice from the indemnifying person to such indemnified person of its election to assume the defense thereof, such indemnifying person shall not be liable to such indemnified person for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified person in connection with the
16
defense thereof; provided, however, that if there exists or shall exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate in the reasonable judgment of the indemnified person for the same counsel to represent both the indemnified person and such indemnifying person or any affiliate or associate thereof, the indemnified person shall be entitled to retain its own counsel at the expense of such indemnifying person; provided, further, that no indemnifying person shall be responsible for the fees and expense of more than one separate counsel for all indemnified parties. The indemnifying party shall not settle an action without the consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(d) If after proper notice of a claim or the commencement of any action against the indemnified party, the indemnifying party does not choose to participate, then the indemnified party shall assume the defense thereof and upon written notice by the indemnified party requesting advance payment of a stated amount for its reasonable defense costs and expenses, the indemnifying party shall advance payment for such reasonable defense costs and expenses (the “Advance Indemnification Payment”) to the indemnified party. In the event that the indemnified party’s actual defense costs and expenses exceed the amount of the Advance Indemnification Payment, then upon written request by the indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall reimburse the indemnified party for such difference; in the event that the Advance Indemnification Payment exceeds the indemnified party’s actual costs and expenses, the indemnified party shall promptly remit payment of such difference to the indemnifying party.
(e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.3 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable law contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, that in no event shall any contribution by an indemnifying party hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of (i) the purchase price of the Registrable Shares included in the Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation and (ii) the amount of any damages such indemnifying party has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission) received by such indemnifying party upon the sale of such Registrable Shares.
7.4 Prospectus Delivery. Each Purchaser hereby covenants with the Company not to make any sale of the Registrable Shares without complying with Section 8.3. The Purchaser acknowledges that there may be times when the Company must suspend the use of the prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement until such time as an amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed by the Company and declared effective by the SEC, or until such time as the Company has filed an appropriate report with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act. The Purchaser hereby covenants that it will not sell any Registrable Shares pursuant to said prospectus during the period commencing at the time at which the Company gives the Purchaser notice of the suspension of the use of said prospectus and ending at the time the Company gives the Purchaser notice that the Purchaser may thereafter effect sales pursuant to said prospectus; provided, that such suspension periods shall in no event exceed 30 days in any
17
12 month period and that, in the good faith judgment of the Company’s Board of Directors, the Company would, in the absence of such delay or suspension hereunder, be required under state or federal securities laws to disclose any corporate development, a potentially significant transaction or event involving the Company, or any negotiations, discussions, or proposals directly relating thereto, in either case the disclosure of which would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect upon the Company or its stockholders; provided further, that the Company may suspend the use of the prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement to the extent necessary to file any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement in order to amend the table of selling stockholders within the Registration Statement to reflect transfers of the Securities pursuant to Sections 8.3(a) and 8.3(b). If, after the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC, sales cannot be made pursuant to such Registration Statement, except as excused pursuant to this Section 7.4, then for each 30-day period following the date sales cannot be made pursuant to such Registration Statement (or any portion thereof), until but excluding the date sales can again be made pursuant to such Registration Statement, the Company shall pay each Purchaser, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount equal to 1% of the purchase price attributable to the Common Shares purchased by such Purchaser hereunder, for such 30-day period (or prorated for any portion thereof), and for any such period, such payment shall be made no later than the first business day of the calendar month next succeeding the last month in which such period occurs (the parties hereto agreeing that the liquidated damages provided for in this Section 7.4 constitute a reasonable estimate of the damages that may be incurred by the Purchasers by reason of the failure of the Registration Statement to remain effective in accordance with the provisions hereof).
7.5 Termination of Obligations. The obligations of the Company pursuant to Section 7.2 hereof shall cease and terminate upon the earlier to occur of (a) such time as all of the Registrable Shares have been resold, (b) such time as all of the Registrable Shares may be resold in a three-month period pursuant to Rule 144, or (c) the second anniversary of the Closing Date.
(a) With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC that may at any time permit the sale of the Securities to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to:
(i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;
(ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and
(iii) so long as any of the Purchasers own Registrable Shares, to furnish to such Purchaser upon request (A) a written statement by the Company as to whether it is in compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, or whether it is qualified as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to XXX
00
Xxxx X-0 and (B) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company.

REGISTRATION STATEMENT QUESTIONNAIRE
In connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement, please provide us with the following information regarding the Purchaser.
A. GENERAL INFORMATION
1. Please state your organization’s name exactly as it should appear in the Registration Statement:
2. Have you or your organization had any position, office or other material relationship within the past three years with the Company or its affiliates other than as disclosed in the Prospectus included in the Registration Statement?
¨ Yes ¨ No
If yes, please indicate the nature of any such relationships below:
B. SECURITIES HOLDINGS
Please fill in all blanks in the following questions related to your beneficial ownership of the Company’s capital stock. Generally, the term “beneficial ownership” refers to any direct or indirect interest in the securities which entitles you to any of the rights or benefits of ownership, even though you may not be the holder of record of the securities. For example, securities held in “street name” over which you exercise voting or investment power would be considered beneficially owned by you. Other examples of indirect ownership include ownership by a partnership in which you are a partner or by an estate or trust of which you or any member of your immediate family is a beneficiary. Ownership of securities held in the names of your spouse, minor children or other relatives who live in the same household may be attributed to you.
PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU HAVE ANY REASON TO BELIEVE THAT ANY INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE COMPANY WHICH YOU MAY HAVE, HOWEVER REMOTE, IS A BENEFICIAL INTEREST, PLEASE DESCRIBE SUCH INTEREST. FOR PURPOSES OF RESPONDING TO THIS QUESTIONNAIRE, IT IS PREFERABLE TO ERR ON THE SIDE OF INCLUSION RATHER THAN EXCLUSION. WHERE THE SEC’S INTERPRETATION OF BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP WOULD REQUIRE DISCLOSURE OF YOUR INTEREST OR POSSIBLE INTEREST IN CERTAIN SECURITIES OF THE COMPANY, AND YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU DO NOT ACTUALLY POSSESS THE ATTRIBUTES OF BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP, AN APPROPRIATE RESPONSE IS TO DISCLOSE THE INTEREST AND AT THE SAME TIME DISCLAIM BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF THE SECURITIES.
B-2.1.
1. As of SEPTEMBER 30, 2005, I owned outright (including shares registered in my name individually or jointly with others, shares held in the name of a bank, broker, nominee, depository or in “street name” for my account), the following number of shares of the Company’s capital stock: .
2. In addition to the number of shares I own outright as indicated by my answer to question B(1), as of SEPTEMBER 30, 2005, I had or shared voting power or investment power, directly or indirectly, through a contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise, over the following number of shares of the Company’s capital stock: ..
If the answer to this question B(2) was not “zero,” please complete the following: with whom shared; and the nature of the relationship and any underlying voting trust agreement, investment arrangement or the like:

We have acted as counsel for Metabasis Therapeutics, Inc. a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the issuance and sale of (i) an aggregate of 7,000,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and (ii) warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,450,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrant Shares”), to the Purchasers at the Closing under the Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of September 30, 2005 (the “Purchase Agreement”). We are rendering this opinion pursuant to Section 5.4 of the Purchase Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the respective meanings given to them in the Purchase Agreement.
In connection with this opinion, we have examined and relied upon the representations and warranties as to factual matters contained in and made pursuant to the Purchase Agreement by the various parties and originals or copies certified to our satisfaction, of such records, documents, certificates, opinions, memoranda and other instruments as in our judgment are necessary or appropriate to enable us to render the opinion expressed below.
As to certain factual matters, we have relied upon a certificate executed by officers of the Company and have not sought to independently verify such matters. Where we render an opinion “to our knowledge” or concerning an item “of which we are aware” or our opinion otherwise refers to our knowledge, it is based solely upon (i) an inquiry of attorneys within this firm who have represented the Company in this transaction, (ii) receipt of a certificate executed by officers of the Company covering such matters and (iii) such other investigation, if any, that we specifically set forth herein.
In rendering this opinion, we have assumed: the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals; the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to us as copies; the accuracy, completeness and authenticity of certificates of public officials; the due authorization, execution and delivery of all documents (except the due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company of the Purchase Agreement and the Warrants (together, the “Financing Agreements”)), where authorization, execution and delivery are prerequisites to the effectiveness of such documents; and the genuineness and authenticity of all signatures on original documents (except the signatures on behalf of the Company on the Financing Agreements). We have also assumed: that all individuals executing and delivering documents had the legal capacity to so execute and deliver; that the Financing Agreements are obligations binding upon the parties thereto other than the
Company; that the parties to the Financing Agreements other than the Company have filed any required California franchise or income tax returns and have paid any required California franchise or income taxes; and that there are no extrinsic agreements or understandings among the parties to the Financing Agreements that would modify or interpret the terms of any of the Financing Agreements or the respective rights or obligations of the parties thereunder.
Our opinion is expressed only with respect to the federal laws of the United States of America, the laws of the State of California and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. We express no opinion as to whether the laws of any particular jurisdiction apply, and no opinion to the extent that the laws of any jurisdiction other than those identified above are applicable to the subject matter hereof.
We are not rendering any opinion as to any statute, rule, regulation, ordinance, decree or decisional law relating to antitrust, banking, land use, environmental, pension, employee benefit, tax, fraudulent conveyance, usury, laws governing the legality of investments for regulated entities, regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or local law. Furthermore, we express no opinion with respect to compliance with antifraud laws, rules or regulations relating to securities or the offer and sale thereof; compliance with fiduciary duties by the Company’s Board of Directors or stockholders; compliance with safe harbors for disinterested Board of Director or stockholder approvals; compliance with state securities or blue sky laws except as specifically set forth below; compliance with the Investment Company Act of 1940; or compliance with laws that place limitations on corporate distributions.
With regard to our opinion in paragraphs 1 and 3 below with respect to the good standing of the Company, we have relied solely upon certificates of the Secretaries of State of the indicated jurisdictions as of a recent date.
With regard to our opinion in paragraph 3 below with respect to the Company’s qualification to do business as a foreign corporation, we have based our opinion solely upon a certificate executed by officers of the Company as to the states in which the Company maintains an office, has employees or owns or leases property, and an examination of the status of the Company in such states.
With regard to our opinion in paragraph 6 below, we express no opinion to the extent that, notwithstanding its current reservation of shares of Common Stock, future issuance of securities of the Company and/or antidilution adjustments to outstanding securities of the Company cause the Warrants to be exercisable for more shares of Common Stock than the number that then remain authorized but unissued.
With regard to our opinion in paragraph 9 below, our opinion is expressed only with respect to the offer and sale of the Shares and the Warrants without regard to any offers or sales of securities occurring prior to or subsequent to the date hereof.

On the basis of the foregoing, in reliance thereon and with the foregoing qualifications, we are of the opinion that:
1. The Company has been duly incorporated and is a validly existing corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.
2. The Company has the requisite corporate power to own its property and assets and to conduct its business as it is currently being conducted.
3. The Company is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing under the laws of the State of California.
4. The Company has the corporate power to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Financing Agreements.
5. Each of the Financing Agreements has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and each such agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its respective terms, except as rights to indemnity and contribution under Section 7.4 of the Purchase Agreement may be limited by applicable laws and except as enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights, and subject to general equity principles and to limitations on availability of equitable relief, including specific performance.
6. The Shares have been duly authorized, and upon issuance and delivery against payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Shares will be validly issued, outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable. The Warrant Shares have been duly authorized, and upon issuance and delivery upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with the terms of the Warrants, the Warrant Shares will be validly issued, outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable.
7. The execution and delivery of the Financing Agreements by the Company and the issuance of the Shares and the Warrants pursuant thereto do not violate any provision of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws and do not violate (a) any governmental statute, rule or regulation which in our experience is typically applicable to transactions of the nature contemplated by the Financing Agreements or (b) any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award which has been entered against the Company and of which we are aware, in each case to the extent the violation of which would materially and adversely affect the Company.
3
8. All consents, approvals, authorizations, or orders of, and filings, registrations, and qualifications with, any U.S. federal or California regulatory authority or governmental body required for the issuance of the Shares and the Warrants have been made or obtained, except for the filing of (a) a Form D pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation D and (b) the notice to be filed under California Corporations Code Section 25102.1(d).
9. The offer and sale of the Shares and the Warrants are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, subject to the timely filing of a Form D pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation D.
This opinion is intended solely for your benefit and is not to be made available to or be relied upon by any other person, firm, or entity without our prior written consent.
Sincerely,
COOLEY GODWARD LLP |
