9
shares of Common Stock, in the aggregate (cumulatively), in one or more Subsequent Placements at a gross price per share of Common Stock (such gross price, the “Subsequent Issue Price”) less than the then effective Adjusted Price for an Investor or (ii) the Company issues any securities convertible or exercisable for or exchangeable into a number of Common Stock Equivalents equal to or greater than 1,000,000, in the aggregate (cumulatively), in one or more Subsequent Placements where the exercise, conversion, or exchange price of such securities per Common Stock Equivalent plus the gross purchase price of such securities per Common Stock Equivalent (together, the “Full Price”) is less than the then effective Adjusted Price, then the Purchase Price of the Shares shall be adjusted and the Company will issue Additional Shares or pay an Anti-Dilution Cash Amount to such Investor to avoid dilution to such Investor as provided below in this Section 2.4. Such thresholds of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock or 1,000,000 Common Stock Equivalents shall be adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend or similar event occurring after the Closing Date.
(b) Anti-Dilution Purchase Price Adjustment. On the closing date relating to any Subsequent Placement that results in the issuance of shares of Common Stock or a number of Common Stock Equivalents in excess of the limits set forth in Section 2.4(a) and with respect to which the Reset Price is less than the then effective Adjusted Price for an Investor, the Company shall issue a number of Additional Shares (or pay an Anti-Dilution Cash Amount in lieu of some or all of such Additional Shares, as provided below) to such Investor determined in accordance with the following formula (any such issuance of Additional Shares or payment of Anti-Dilution Amounts, an “Anti-Dilution Purchase Price Adjustment”):
| Number of Additional Shares |
= | [Adjusted Investment Amount for such Investor – (Reset Price * Adjusted Shares for such Investor)] | ||
| Reset Price |
(c) Limitations on Issuance of Additional Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing (and without duplication)—
| (i) | if the aggregate number of Additional Shares issuable to the Investors as the result of any application of the Anti-Dilution Purchase Price Adjustment, when added to the then existing number of Subject Shares, would exceed the Share Cap, the Company shall promptly pay an amount of cash in lieu of such excess number of Additional Shares to the Investors equal to the product of (a) the number of Additional Shares otherwise issuable to the Investors (as calculated above under this Section 2.4 without regard to any limitation in this Section 2.4(c)) in excess of the Share Cap multiplied by (b) the Reset Price applicable to such Subsequent Placement. Such cash payment shall be allocated among the Investors based on the respective number of Additional Shares otherwise issuable to each Investor (without regard to any limitation in this Section 2.4(c); and |
10
| (ii) | if the aggregate number of Additional Shares issuable to an Investor as the result of any application of the Anti-Dilution Purchase Price Adjustment would cause the “Constructive Ownership” or “Beneficial Ownership” of Capital Stock of any “Person” (as such terms are defined in the Charter) to be in violation of the Ownership Limits (except that, for these purposes, the Common Stock Ownership Limit shall be increased to the extent set forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Ownership Limit Waiver (if and to the extent then in effect)), the Company shall promptly pay an amount of cash in lieu of such excess number of Additional Shares to such Investor equal to the product of (a) such excess number of Additional Shares multiplied by (b) the Reset Price applicable to such Subsequent Placement. |
For the avoidance of doubt, if the number of Additional Shares otherwise payable under this Section 2.4 (without regard to the limitations of this Section 2.4(c)) is limited by both paragraph (i) and (ii) of this Section 2.4(c), the Company shall only be required to pay cash in lieu of such Additional Shares limited by both paragraph (i) and (ii) of this Section 2.4(c) pursuant to either such paragraph (i) or (ii), but not both (i.e., only one cash payment in lieu of any Additional Shares).
(d) Election of Company to Make Cash Payment. The Company may elect, in its sole and absolute discretion, to pay all or part of any Anti-Dilution Purchase Price Adjustment in cash. The amount of cash that the Company shall pay to an Investor for each Additional Share that would otherwise be issued under Section 2.4(b) shall be equal to the applicable Reset Price.
Section 2.5 Registration Statement Purchase Price Adjustment.
(a) In connection with the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to file a resale registration statement on the appropriate form within 90 days of the Closing Date and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to have such registration statement declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable thereafter. If (i) the Investors have not already received 144,737 (as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend or similar event occurring after the Closing Date) or more Additional Shares (or an equivalent Anti-Dilution Cash Amount or combination thereof) as a result of the Anti-Dilution Purchase Price Adjustment (reflecting a maximum purchase price adjustment of 5% of the Purchase Price, or $1.01 per Share) and (ii) the Initial Shares are not registered with the Commission within 270 days of the Closing Date (the “Effective Date Deadline”), then the Investors shall receive a downward adjustment to the Purchase Price in an amount that, when combined with any previous Anti-Dilution Purchase Price Adjustment, is equal to 5% of the Purchase Price paid for the Shares under this Agreement (the “Registration Statement Purchase Price Adjustment”); provided, that, the Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, elect to pay the Registration Statement Purchase Price Adjustment in shares of Common Stock or cash or a combination thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, the Registration Statement Purchase Price Adjustment or cash payment in lieu thereof shall not relieve the Company of its ongoing registration obligations contained in this Section 2.5 and the Registration Rights Agreement.
11
The aggregate number of Additional Shares (if any) to be issued by the Company to the Investors in satisfaction of the Registration Statement Purchase Price Adjustment shall be calculated in accordance with the following formula:
| Number of Additional Shares |
= | Purchase Price Adjustment Share Cap – Aggregate Purchase Price Adjustment Shares |
Where:
“Aggregate Purchase Price Adjustment Shares” means the sum of (x) all Additional Shares issued by the Company to the Investors in satisfaction of the Anti-Dilution Purchase Price Adjustment prior to the Effective Date Deadline plus (y) if any Anti-Dilution Cash Amounts have theretofore been paid to the Investors, the aggregate number of Additional Shares represented by such Anti-Dilution Cash Amounts (in each case as adjusted to give effect to any stock split, stock dividend or similar event occurring after the Closing Date).
“Purchase Price Adjustment Share Cap” means 144,737 Shares (as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend or similar event occurring after the Closing Date).
Upon calculating the aggregate number of Additional Shares and/or the aggregate Registration Statement Cash Amount issuable or payable as a result of the Registration Purchase Price Adjustment in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Company shall issue (without any additional payment by the Investors to the Company) any such Additional Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole Share), and/or shall pay any such Registration Statement Cash Amount, to each Investor in the same proportion as the number of Initial Shares issued to each Investor as set forth on Schedule 2.1.
(b) Limitations on Issuance of Additional Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing (and without duplication)—
| (i) | if the aggregate number of Additional Shares issuable to the Investors as the result of any application of the Registration Statement Purchase Price Adjustment, when added to the then existing number of Subject Shares, would exceed the Share Cap, the Company shall promptly pay an amount of cash in lieu of such excess number of Additional Shares to the Investors equal to the product of (a) the number of Additional Shares otherwise issuable to the Investors (as calculated above in this Section 2.5 without regard to any limitation in this Section 2.5(b)) in excess of the Share Cap multiplied by (b) the Registration Statement Per Share Cash Amount. Such cash payment shall be allocated among the Investors based on the respective number of Initial Shares issued to each Investor as set forth on Schedule 2.1; and |
12
| (ii) | if the aggregate number of Additional Shares issuable to an Investor as the result of any application of the Registration Statement Purchase Price Adjustment would cause the “Constructive Ownership” or “Beneficial Ownership” of Capital Stock of any “Person” (as such terms are defined in the Charter) to be in violation of the Ownership Limits (except that, for these purposes, the Common Stock Ownership Limit shall be increased to the extent set forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Ownership Limit Waiver (if and to the extent then in effect)), the Company shall promptly pay an amount of cash in lieu of such excess number of Additional Shares to such Investor equal to the product of (a) such excess number of Additional Shares multiplied by (b) the Registration Statement Per Share Cash Amount. |
For the avoidance of doubt, if the number of Additional Shares otherwise payable under this Section 2.5 (without regard to the limitations of this Section 2.5(b)) is limited by both paragraph (i) and (ii) of this Section 2.5(b), the Company shall only be required to pay cash in lieu of such Additional Shares limited by both paragraph (i) and (ii) of this Section 2.5(b) pursuant to either such paragraph (i) or (ii), but not both (i.e., only one cash payment in lieu of any Additional Shares).
(c) Election of Company to Make Cash Payment. The Company may elect, in its sole and absolute discretion, to pay all or part of any Registration Statement Purchase Price Adjustment in cash in lieu of some or all of the Additional Shares issuable in connection with the Registration Statement Purchase Price Adjustment, as calculated above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Investors shall be required to indemnify the Company for any Damages in any amount in excess of the total Investor Purchase Price set forth opposite such Investor’s name on Schedule 2.1 hereto.
Section 7.3 Procedures. In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 7.2, such Person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify (and in any event prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date) the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding; provided, that failure to promptly notify an indemnifying party in accordance with this Section 7.2 shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent that it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same
25
counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

Section 8.7 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance shall be declared by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable in any respect, all other provisions of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it has been held invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and will in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby. Upon such determination that any provision, or the application of any such provision, is invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by Law in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the greatest extent possible.
Section 8.8 No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Person.
Section 8.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Exhibits and Schedules, and the Registration Rights Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereof with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof (including the Preliminary Term Sheet).
Section 8.10 Section Headings; Construction. The headings of Sections in this Agreement are provided for convenience only and will not affect its construction or interpretation. All references to “Section” or “Sections” refer to the corresponding Section or Sections of this Agreement. All words used in this Agreement will be construed to be of such gender or number as the circumstances require. The words “and” and “or” include the conjunctive and disjunctive, as the context may require or permit. Unless otherwise expressly provided, the word “including” (and any variation of that word) means “including, without limitation,” and is used in an illustrative sense rather than a limiting sense.
Section 8.11 Schedules and Exhibits. All Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto are hereby incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. Any matter disclosed pursuant to any Schedule to this Agreement (or any section of any Schedule to this Agreement) whose relevance or applicability to any
28
representation made elsewhere in this Agreement or to the information called for by any other Schedule to this Agreement (or any other section of any Schedule to this Agreement) is reasonably apparent on its face shall be deemed to be an exception to such representations and to be disclosed with respect to all such other Schedules to this Agreement (and all sections of all Schedules to this Agreement) where it is so apparent on its face, notwithstanding the omission of a reference or cross-reference thereto.
Section 8.12 Further Assurances. The parties hereto shall execute and deliver all such further instruments and documents and take all such other actions as may reasonably be required to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and to evidence the fulfillment of the agreements herein contained.

Section 8.14 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal Laws of the State of New York without regard to the choice of Law principles thereof or of any other jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any appropriate court in the State of New York (unless such court shall lack subject matter jurisdiction, in which case, in any state or federal court located in New York) for the purpose of any suit, action, proceeding or judgment relating to or arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Service of process in connection with any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on each party hereto anywhere in the world by the same methods as are specified for the giving of notices under this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding and to the laying of venue in such court. Each party hereto irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such courts and irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO REQUEST A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT COUNSEL HAS BEEN CONSULTED SPECIFICALLY AS TO THIS WAIVER.
