2.2 The completion of the Private Placement is not subject to the completion of any minimum aggregate offering or any closing condition other than as set forth herein and in the Agency Agreement.
2.3 Subject to section 7 of this Agreement, the Subscriber hereby confirms its irrevocable subscription for the Units from the Issuer, on and subject to the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement, for the Aggregate Subscription Price which is payable as described herein. The Subscriber acknowledges (on its own behalf and, including if applicable, on behalf of each Disclosed Principal) that upon acceptance by the Issuer of this Agreement, this Agreement will constitute a binding obligation of the Subscriber (including if applicable, each Disclosed Principal) subject to the terms and conditions contained herein.
2.4 The Issuer may, in its absolute discretion, accept or reject the Subscriber’s subscription for Units as set forth in this Agreement, in whole or in part, and the Issuer reserves the right to allot to the Subscriber less than the amount of Units subscribed for under this Agreement.

(c) | Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 1.5 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense, and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 1.5, to the extent such failure is not materially prejudicial to such defense. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Each Indemnified Party shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom. |
|
(d) | If the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.5 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to therein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense 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 in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. |
- 6 -
(e) | The Indemnifying Party agrees to reimburse any Indemnified Party monthly upon receipt of invoice(s) therefor, for the time spent by the Indemnified Party’s personnel where they are required to testify, attend or otherwise respond to any claim at their normal per diem rates. |
|
(f) | Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control. |
1.6 Information by Holder. Each Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder and the distribution proposed by such Holder as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement.
1.7 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission that may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to:
(a) |
file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act at any time it is subject to such reporting requirements; and | |
(b) |
so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to the Holder forthwith upon written request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing a Holder to sell any such securities without registration. |
1.8 Transfer or Assignment of Registration Rights. The registration rights granted to a Holder by the Company under this Agreement may be transferred or assigned by a Holder provided that the Company is given written notice at the time of or within a reasonable time after said transfer or assignment, stating the name and address of the transferee or assignee and identifying the Registrable Securities being transferred or assigned. Such transferees (other than transferees that acquire the Registrable Securities in a registered public offering or pursuant to a sale under Rule 144) shall automatically be entitled to receive the benefits of and be conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement as if it were a party hereto, and shall be deemed to be Holders under this Agreement.
1.9 Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to take any action to restrain, enjoin or otherwise delay any registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Section 1.
1.10 Time is of Essence. The Company agrees that time is of the essence of each of the covenants contained herein and that, in the event of a dispute hereunder, this Agreement is to be interpreted and construed in a manner that will enable the Holders to sell their Registrable Securities as quickly as possible. Any delay on the part of the Company not expressly permitted under this Agreement, whether material or not, shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement.
- 7 -
1.11 Remedies Upon Default or Delay. The Company acknowledges the breach of any part of this Agreement may cause irreparable harm to a Holder and that monetary damages alone may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that the Holder shall be entitled to injunctive relief or such other applicable remedy as a court of competent jurisdiction may provide. Nothing contained herein will be construed to limit a Holder’s right to any remedies at law, including recovery of damages for breach of any part of this Agreement.
2. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.
The Company hereby covenants and agrees, so long as any Holder owns any Registrable Securities, as follows:
2.1 Maintain Listing. The Company covenants that, once it has registered the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, it shall maintain the listing or quotation of such securities on each stock exchange or quotation on which such securities are, or subsequently become, listed.

3.3 Unauthorized Suspension. If after its effective date the Registration Statement ceases for any reason (including without limitation by reason of a stop order, or the Company’s failure to update the Registration Statement), but excluding the inability of any Holder to sell the Registrable Securities covered thereby due to market conditions, to be effective and available to the Holders as to all Registrable Securities to which it is required to cover at any time prior to the expiration of the Effectiveness Period for more than an aggregate of 30 trading days in any 12-month period (which need not be consecutive) (an “Unauthorized Suspension”), the date which such 30 trading day period is exceeded, being referred to as “Event Date”), then in addition to any other rights available to the Holders: (x) on such Unauthorized Suspension, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1% of the product of (A) the subscription price, and (B) the number of Unit Shares held by such Holder as of the date of the Unauthorized Suspension that are Registrable Securities which are not eligible to be sold in the market by the Holder under Rule 144 (such product, the “Holder’s Amount”) (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available under this Agreement); and (y) on each 30 day anniversary of each such Unauthorized Suspension thereof (if the applicable default shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Unauthorized Suspension is cured, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1% of the Holder’s Amount.

4.6 Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any Holder, upon any breach or default of the Company under this Agreement shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such Holder nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default therefore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any Holder of any breach or default under this Agreement or any waiver on the part of any Holder of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement must be made in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.

4.8 Information Confidential. Each Holder acknowledges that the information received by them pursuant hereto may be confidential and for its use only, and it will not use such confidential information in violation of the Exchange Act or reproduce, disclose or disseminate such information to any other person (other than its employees or agents having a need to know the contents of such information, and its attorneys), except in connection with the exercise of rights under this Agreement, unless the Company has made such information available to the public generally or such Holder is required to disclose such information by a governmental body.
