Company has up to three months from Closing to undertake delivery of the Shares.
3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Company.
The Company hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Purchaser that as of the Closing and each date Shares are delivered to the Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof:
(a) The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada and has all necessary corporate power and authority to (i) own, operate and occupy its properties and to carry on its business as presently conducted, and (ii) enter into this Agreement and the other agreements, instruments and documents contemplated hereby, and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The Company is qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect.
1
(b) All necessary corporate proceedings, votes, resolutions and approvals relating to the issuance and sale of the Shares will have been completed by the Company. Upon execution, this Agreement will constitute a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.
(c) The Shares purchased pursuant to this Agreement will be, upon issuance and payment by the Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable, and free of all liens, claims and encumbrances.
(d) In order to allow for, as of the relevant date of determination, the purchase of all of the Shares to be purchased hereunder, the Company shall take all action necessary from time to time to reserve for the benefit of the Purchaser the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Shares set forth in Section 1 above (such calculated amount is referred to as the “Share Reserve”). If at any time the Share Reserve is less than required herein, the Company shall immediately increase the Share Reserve in an amount equal to no less than the deficiency. If the Company does not have sufficient authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock available to increase the Share Reserve, the Company shall call a special meeting of the stockholders as soon as practicable after such occurrence, but in no event later than thirty (30) calendar days after such occurrence, and hold such meeting as soon as practicable thereafter, but in no event later than sixty (60) calendar days after such occurrence, for the sole purpose of increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. The Company’s management shall recommend to the Company’s stockholders to vote in favor of increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. Management shall also vote all of its shares in favor of increasing the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause such additional shares of Common Stock to be authorized so as to comply with the requirements of this subsection.
4. Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser.
The Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company that as of the Closing hereunder:
(a) The Purchaser has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement. Upon execution, this Agreement will constitute a valid and legally binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.
(b) The Shares will be acquired for investment for the Purchaser’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and the Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in or otherwise distributing the same except in compliance with applicable U.S. securities laws.

(d) The Purchaser is an experienced investor in securities of companies in the development stage, can bear the economic risk of its investment, including a total loss, and has such knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment in the Shares. The Purchaser has conducted its own due diligence review of the Company and received copies or originals of all documents it has requested from the Company.
(e) The Purchaser understands that the issuance of the Shares has not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Purchaser’s representations as expressed herein.
