The Company does not have any subsidiaries other than those identified in its most recent report on Form 10-Q. The Company is qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except for any jurisdiction(s) (alone or in the aggregate) in which the failure to be so qualified will not have a Material Adverse Effect. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Material Adverse Effect” means any effect on the business, operations, properties or financial condition of the Company that is material and adverse to the Company, taken as a whole, and any condition, circumstance or situation that would prohibit the Company from entering into and performing any of its obligations hereunder.
3.2 Authorization; Enforcement. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement and to issue the shares in accordance with the terms hereof. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly
2
authorized by all necessary corporate action, and no further consent or authorization of the Company, its board of directors or stockholders is required, except pursuant to Section 8. When executed and delivered by the Company, this Agreement shall constitute a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship, receivership or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditor’s rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application. The Company’s board of directors, at a meeting duly called and held, adopted resolutions approving the transactions contemplated hereby, including the issuance of the Supplemental Access Fee Shares.
3.3 Issuance of Shares. The shares to be issued and sold hereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and, when issued in accordance with the terms hereof, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. In addition, such shares will be free and clear of all liens, claims, charges, security interests or agreements, pledges, assignments, covenants, restrictions or other encumbrances created by, or imposed by, the Company (collectively, “Encumbrances”) and rights of refusal of any kind imposed by the Company (other than restrictions on transfer under applicable securities laws) and the holder of such shares shall be entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of Common Stock.
3.4 No Conflicts; Governmental Approvals. The execution, delivery and performance of the Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not (i) violate any provision of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, each as amended to date, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement, instrument or obligation to which the Company is a party or by which the Company’s properties or assets are bound, or (iii) result in a violation of any federal, state, local or foreign statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable to the Company or by which any property or asset of the Company is bound or affected, except for such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, acceleration, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company is not required under federal, state, foreign or local law, rule or regulation to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or issue and sell the shares in accordance with the terms hereof (other than any filings, consents and approvals which may be required to be made by the Company under applicable state and federal securities laws, rules or regulations prior to or subsequent to the Closing).

At the times of their respective filing, all such reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents complied in all material respects with the
3
requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder. At the times of their respective filings, such reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

3.8 Disclosure Controls. The Company has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act). Since the date of the most recent evaluation of such disclosure controls and procedures, there have been no significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses. The Company is in compliance in all material respects with all provisions currently in effect and applicable to the Company of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or implementing the provisions thereof.

No action, suit, proceeding or investigation is currently pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, has been threatened in writing against the Company that: (i) concerns or questions the validity of this Agreement; (ii) concerns or questions the right of the Company to enter into this Agreement; or (iii) is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company is neither a party to nor subject to the provisions of any material order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any court or government agency or instrumentality. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation by the Company currently pending or that the Company intends to initiate that would have a Material Adverse Effect.
3.12 Compliance. Except for defaults or violations which are not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Company is not (i) in default under or in violation of (and no event has occurred that has not been waived that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would result in a default by the Company under), nor has the Company received notice of a claim that it is in default under or that it is in violation of, any indenture, loan or credit agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound (whether or not such default or violation has been waived), (ii) is in violation of any order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body, or (iii) is or has been in violation of any statute, rule or regulation of any governmental authority, including without limitation all foreign, federal, state and local laws, applicable to its business, except in each case for such defaults or violations as would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received, since the date of the latest audited financial statements included within the SEC Documents, a written notice of a claim or otherwise has any knowledge that the Intellectual Property Rights violate or infringe upon the rights of any Person, except as could not have or reasonably be expected to not have a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the Company, all such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable and there is no existing infringement by another Person of any of the Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of their intellectual properties, except where failure to do so could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. “Person” means an individual or corporation, partnership, trust, incorporated or unincorporated association, joint venture, limited liability company, joint stock company, government (or an agency or subdivision thereof) or other entity of any kind.
