any Principal Market.

arrangements by which the Company or any Subsidiary is or may become bound to
issue additional shares of Common Stock, or securities or rights convertible or
exchangeable into shares of Common Stock. The issuance and sale of
the Securities will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or
other securities to any Person (other than Purchaser) and will not result in a
right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise, conversion,
exchange or reset price under such securities. Except for HQS, VHT Acquisition
Company, Carekeeper Software, Inc., HSS IP, LLC, Health Systems Solutions Group,
LLC, HSS Consultancy, LLC and Merger Sub the Company has no direct or indirect

to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
(l)
Labor
Relations. No material labor dispute exists or, to the
knowledge of the Company, is imminent with respect to any of the employees of
the Company.
(m) Regulatory
Permits. The Company and the Subsidiaries possess all
certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal,
state, local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their
respective businesses as described in the SEC Reports, except where the failure
to possess such permits could not, individually or in the aggregate, have or
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect (“Material Permits”),
and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of
proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any Material
Permit.
(n) Title to
Assets. The Company and the Subsidiaries have good and
marketable title in fee simple to all real property owned by them that is
material to the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries and good and
marketable title in all personal property owned by them that is material to the
business of the Company and the Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all
Liens, except for Liens that do not materially affect the value of such property
and do not materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of
such property by the Company and the Subsidiaries. Any real property
and facilities held under lease by the Company and the Subsidiaries are held
under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases of which the Company and the
Subsidiaries are in compliance.
12
(o) Patents and
Trademarks. The Company and the Subsidiaries have, or have
rights to use, all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark
applications, service marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and other similar
rights necessary or material for use in connection with their respective
businesses as described in the SEC Reports and which the failure to so have or
could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect
(collectively, the “Intellectual Property
Rights”). Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received
a written notice that the Intellectual Property Rights used by the Company or
any Subsidiary violates or infringes upon the rights of any Person. 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.
(p) Insurance. The
Company and the Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial
responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent
and customary in the businesses in which the Company and the Subsidiaries are
engaged. To the best of Company’s knowledge, such insurance contracts
and policies are accurate and complete. Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary has any reason to believe it will not be able to renew its existing
insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar
coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business
without a significant increase in cost.
(q) Transactions With Affiliates
and Employees. Except as required to be set forth in the SEC
Reports, none of the officers or directors of the Company and, to the knowledge
of the Company, none of the employees of the Company is presently a party to any

employees, officers and directors), including any contract, agreement or other
arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or by, providing for
rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments
to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the knowledge of the
Company, any entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee has a
substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee or
partner.
(r) Certain
Fees. No brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions are or will
be payable by the Company to any broker, financial advisor or consultant,
finder, placement agent, investment banker, bank or other Person with respect to
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the Company has not taken
any action that would cause Purchaser to be liable for any such fees or
commissions other than placement fees payable to Stanford Group Company in
connection with the placement of the Debentures and the Warrants, which shall be
the sole responsibility of, and paid by, the Purchaser; provided, however, that
the Company shall be solely responsible for the advisory fee payable to Stanford
Group Company in connection with the Merger transaction. The Company
agrees that Purchaser shall have no obligation with respect to any fees or with
respect to any claims made by or on behalf of any Person for fees of the type
contemplated by this Section with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement other than the placement fees payable to Stanford Group Company
referred to in the preceding sentence.
(s) Private
Placement. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and
warranties of Purchaser set forth in Sections 3.2(b)-(f), the offer, issuance
and sale of the Securities to Purchaser as contemplated hereby are exempt from
the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The issuance and
sale of the Securities hereunder does not contravene the rules and regulations
of the Principal Market.
13
(t) Listing and Maintenance
Requirements. The Company has not, in the 12 months preceding
the date hereof, received notice from any Principal Market on which the Common
Stock is or has been listed or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in
compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such Principal
Market. The Company is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the
foreseeable future continue to be, in compliance with all such listing and
maintenance requirements.
(u) Registration Rights.
Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, the Company has not granted or agreed to
grant to any Person any rights (including “piggy-back” registration rights) to
have any securities of the Company registered with the Commission or any other
governmental authority that have not been satisfied.
(v) Tax
Status. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has made or
filed all federal, state and foreign income and all other tax returns, reports
and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject (unless and
only to the extent that the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has set aside
on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all unpaid and
unreported taxes) and has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and
charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such
returns, reports and declarations, except those disclosed in the SEC Reports and
being contested in good faith and has set aside on its books provisions
reasonably adequate for the payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the
periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply. There
are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing
authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company know of no basis
for any such claim, except as disclosed in the SEC Reports. The Company has not
executed a waiver with respect to the statute of limitations relating to the
assessment or collection of any foreign, federal, statue or local
tax. None of the Company’s tax returns is presently being audited by

502(c) of Regulation D) or general advertising with respect to the sale of the
Debentures or the Warrants, or (ii) made any offers or sales of any security or
solicited any offers to buy any security under any circumstances that would
require registration of the Debentures, the Underlying Shares or the Warrants
under the Securities Act.
14

Section
3.2 Representations and
Warranties of Purchaser. Purchaser hereby represents and
warrants to the Company as follows:
(a) Organization;
Authority. Purchaser is an entity duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
organization with the requisite corporate or partnership power and authority to
enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents and otherwise to carry out its obligations thereunder. The purchase by
Purchaser of the Securities hereunder has been duly authorized by all necessary
action on the part of Purchaser. Each of this Agreement and the
Registration Rights Agreement has been duly executed by Purchaser, and when
delivered by Purchaser in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute the
valid and legally binding obligation of Purchaser, enforceable against it in
accordance with its terms.
(b) No
Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the
Transaction Documents by Purchaser and the consummation by Purchaser of the
transactions contemplated thereby do not and will not: (i) conflict with or
violate any provision of Purchaser’s certificate or articles of incorporation,
bylaws or other organizational or charter documents, or (ii) conflict with, or
constitute a default (or an event that 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 (with or without notice, lapse of time
or both) of, any agreement, credit facility, debt or other instrument
(evidencing a Purchaser debt or otherwise) or other understanding to which
Purchaser is a party or by which any property or asset of Purchaser is bound or
affected, or (iii) result, in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order,
judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction of any court or governmental
authority to which Purchaser is subject (including federal and state securities
laws and regulations), or by which any property or asset of Purchaser is bound
or affected; except in the case of each of clauses (ii) and (iii), such as could
not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result
in a material adverse effect on Purchaser.
15
(c) Investment
Intent. Purchaser is acquiring the Securities as principal for
its own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to or for
distributing or reselling such Securities or any part thereof, without
prejudice, however, to Purchaser’s right, subject to the provisions of this
Agreement, at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such
Securities pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities
Act or under an exemption from such registration and in compliance with
applicable federal and state securities laws. Nothing contained
herein shall be deemed a representation or warranty by Purchaser to hold
Securities for any period of time. Purchaser is acquiring the
Securities hereunder in the ordinary course of its
business. Purchaser does not have any agreement or understanding,
directly or indirectly, with any Person to distribute any of the
Securities.
(d) Purchaser
Status. At the time Purchaser was offered the Securities, it
was, and at the date hereof it is, and on each date on which it exercises any
Warrants or converts any Debenture it will be, an “accredited investor” as
defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act. Purchaser has not been formed
solely for the purpose of acquiring the Securities. Purchaser is not
a registered broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act.
(e) Experience of
Purchaser. Purchaser, either alone or together with its
representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business
and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
the prospective investment in the Securities, and has so evaluated the merits
and risks of such investment. Purchaser is able to bear the economic
risk of an investment in the Securities and, at the present time, is able to
afford a complete loss of such investment. Purchaser has
had the opportunity to ask the representatives of the Company questions about
the Company’s business and financial condition and the terms of this offering
and has obtained such information as it has requested to the extent it has
deemed necessary to permit it to fully evaluate the merits and risks of its
investment in the Company. Purchaser also represents that it has had
the opportunity to examine all material books and records of the Company and all
material contracts and documents relating to his investment. Further, Purchaser
has consulted with such other of his investment and/or accounting and/or legal
and/or tax advisors as it has deemed necessary and appropriate in making its
decision to invest in the Company on the terms described herein.
(f) General
Solicitation. Purchaser is not purchasing the Securities as a
result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding
the Securities published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or
broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar or any other
general solicitation or general advertisement.
(g) Availability of
Funds. Purchaser has sufficient funds available to deliver to
the Company that portion of the Subscription Amount due at the Initial Closing
and the Second Closing.
16

IV - OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
Section
4.1 Transfer
Restrictions.
(a) The
Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal
securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Securities other
than pursuant to an effective registration statement, to the Company or to an
Affiliate of Purchaser, the Company may require the transferor thereof to
provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and
reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion
shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such
transfer does not require registration of such transferred Securities under the
Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall
agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the
rights of Purchaser under this Agreement and the Registration Rights
Agreement.
(b) Purchaser
agrees to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 4.1(b), of the
following legend on any certificate evidencing Securities:
NEITHER
THESE SECURITIES NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE
CONVERTIBLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR
THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM
REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES
ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN
AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION
REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR
REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH
SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY. THESE SECURITIES AND
THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN
CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH
SECURITIES.
17
(c) Certificates
evidencing Underlying Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend
set forth in Section 4.1(b) hereof): (i) while a registration statement
(including the Registration Statement) covering the resale of such security is
effective under the Securities Act (unless, subsequent to the date hereof, the
Commission enacts any new rules or regulations which specifically requires a
legend on the certificates until a sale is made by the holder thereof), or (ii)
following any sale of such Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) if
such Underlying Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144 without restriction,
or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the
Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by
the staff of the Commission); provided, however, in
connection with the issuance of the Underlying Shares, Purchaser hereby agrees
to adhere to and abide by all prospectus delivery requirements under the
Securities Act and rules and regulations of the Commission. If all or
any portion of a Debenture or Warrant is converted or exercised (as applicable)
at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale
of the Underlying Shares, or if such Underlying Shares may be sold under Rule
144 without restriction or if such legend is not otherwise required under
applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial
interpretations thereof) then such Underlying Shares shall be issued free of all
legends. The Company agrees that following the Effective Date or at
such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1(c), it
will, no later than three Trading Days following the delivery by Purchaser to
the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a certificate representing
Underlying Shares issued with a restrictive legend, deliver or cause to be
delivered to Purchaser a certificate representing such shares that is free from
all restrictive and other legends. The Company may 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.
Section
4.2 Acknowledgment of
Dilution. 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 the Transaction Documents, including without limitation its obligation to
issue the Underlying Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents, are
unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off,
counterclaim, delay or reduction, regardless of the effect of any such dilution
or any claim the Company may have against Purchaser and regardless of the
dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership of the other
stockholders of the Company.
Section
4.3 Furnishing of
Information. As long as Purchaser owns Securities, the Company
covenants to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file
within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the
Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act. Upon the
request of Purchaser, the Company shall deliver to Purchaser a written
certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with
the preceding sentence. As long as Purchaser owns Securities, if the Company is
not required to file reports pursuant to such laws, it will prepare and furnish
to Purchaser and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such
information as is required for Purchaser to sell the Securities under Rule
144. The Company further covenants that it will take such further
action as any holder of Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent
required from time to time to enable such Person to sell such Securities without
registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions
provided by Rule 144.
Section
4.4 Integration. The
Company shall not, and shall use its best efforts to ensure that no Affiliate of
the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise
negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities
Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a
manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale
of the Securities to Purchaser, or that would be integrated with the offer or
sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any
Principal Market.
18
Section
4.5
Reservation of
Securities.
(a) The
Company shall maintain a reserve from its duly authorized shares of Common Stock

required to fulfill its obligations in full under the Transaction Documents
including upon conversion of the Debentures and the exercise of the
Warrants.
(b) The
Company shall not undertake a reverse or forward stock split or reclassification
of the Common Stock without the prior written consent of Purchaser.
Section
4.6 Conversion and Exercise
Procedures. The form of Notice of Exercise included in the
Warrants and the form of Notice of Conversion included in the Debentures set forth the totality
of the procedures required of Purchaser in order to exercise the Warrants or

information or instructions shall be required of Purchaser to exercise their
Warrants or convert the Debentures. The Company shall honor exercises
of the Warrants and conversions of the Debentures and shall deliver Underlying
Shares in accordance with the terms, conditions and time periods set forth in
the Transaction Documents.

respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, other than in any registration statement filed pursuant to the
Registration Rights Agreement and filings related thereto, the Company shall not
publicly disclose the name of Purchaser, or include the name of Purchaser in any
filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Principal Market, without
the prior written consent of Purchaser, except to the extent such disclosure is
required by law or Principal Market regulations, in which case the Company shall
provide Purchaser with prior notice of such disclosure.
Section
4.8 Non-Public
Information. The Company covenants and agrees that neither it
nor any other Person acting on its behalf will provide Purchaser or its agents
or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material
non-public information, unless prior thereto Purchaser shall have executed a
written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such
information. The Company understands and confirms that Purchaser
shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in
securities of the Company.
Section
4.9 Use of
Proceeds. The Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale
of the Securities hereunder as follows: (a) $5,000,000 from the sale of the

the sale of the Second Debenture for the acquisition of all of the outstanding
capital stock of Emageon in the Merger along with associated transaction costs,
fees and expenses including professional fees as well as for the general working
capital of the Company; and (c) the balance of the Subscription Amount shall be
funded, from time to time, as and when agreed by the parties in order to finance
the Company’s needs for working capital in accordance with the business plan for
the Company as approved by the Purchaser. In no event may any such
proceeds be used to purchase or to carry, or to reduce, retire or refinance any
debt incurred to purchase or carry, any margin stock or for any related purpose
that violates the provisions of Regulations T, U or X of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
19
Section
4.10 Reimbursement. If
Purchaser becomes involved in any capacity in any Proceeding by or against any
Person who is a stockholder of the Company, solely as a result of Purchaser’s
acquisition of the Securities under this Agreement and without causation by any
other activity, obligation, condition or liability on the part of, or pertaining
to Purchaser and not to the purchase of Securities pursuant to this Agreement,
the Company will reimburse Purchaser, to the extent such reimbursement is not
provided for in Section 4.11, for its reasonable legal and other expenses
(including the cost of any investigation, preparation and travel in connection
therewith) incurred in connection therewith, as such expenses are incurred. The
reimbursement obligations (and limitations thereon) of the Company under this
paragraph shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise
have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to any Affiliates of
Purchaser who are actually named in such action, proceeding or investigation,
and partners, directors, agents, employees and controlling persons (if any), as
the case may be, of Purchaser and any such Affiliate, and shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal
representatives of the Company, Purchaser and any such Affiliate and any such
Person. The Company also agrees that neither Purchaser nor any such Affiliates,
partners, directors, agents, employees or controlling persons shall have any
liability to the Company or any Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right
of the Company solely as a result of acquiring the Securities under this
Agreement except to the extent any covenant or warranty owing to the Company is
breached.
Section
4.11 Indemnification of
Purchaser. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.11,
each party (the “Indemnifying Party”)
will indemnify and hold the other parties and their directors, officers,
shareholders, partners, employees and agents (each, an “Indemnified Party”)
harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims,
contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts
paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of
investigation that any such Indemnified Party may suffer or incur as a result of
or relating to any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants
or agreements made by the Indemnifying Party in this Agreement or in the other
Transaction Documents. If any action shall be brought against any
Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this
Agreement, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party
in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the
defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing. Any Indemnified
Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and
participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel
shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party except to the extent that (i)
the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying
Party in writing, (ii) the Indemnifying Party has failed after a reasonable
period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such
action there is, in the reasonable opinion of such separate counsel, a material
conflict on any material issue between the position of the Indemnifying Party
and the position of such Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party
will not be liable to any Indemnified Party under this Agreement (i) for any
settlement by an Indemnified Party effected without the Indemnifying Party’s
prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or
(ii) to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or
liability is attributable to any Indemnified Party’s breach of any of the
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by Purchaser in this
Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents. In no event shall
the liability of Purchaser hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount
of the net proceeds received by Purchaser upon the sale of the
Securities.
20
Section
4.12 Preemptive
Rights. At all times while the Purchaser (or an affiliate
thereof) is a shareholder of the Company, the Purchaser shall have the right to
purchase a pro rata percentage of securities the Purchaser owns in the Company,
in any privately placed securities offering made by the Company. This
preemptive right to acquire securities shall not apply to any shares granted to
employees of the Company or other persons in connection with any employee or
stock ownership plan or otherwise. If the Company proposes to issue
further equity securities as described above, the Company shall provide written
notice to the Purchaser setting forth the price, terms and conditions upon which

enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No waiver of any default
with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall
be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent
default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor
shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in
any manner impair the exercise of any such right.
27
Section
7.5 Construction. The
headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this
Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions
hereof. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the
language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of
strict construction will be applied against any party.
Section
7.6 Successors and
Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted
assigns. Neither party may assign this Agreement or any rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party,

Section
7.7 No Third-Party

the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is
not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other
Person.
Section

Venue. THIS AGREEMENT, EACH DEBENTURE AND EACH OTHER
TRANSACTION DOCUMENT, AND ALL MATTERS RELATING HERETO OR THERETO OR ARISING
THEREFROM (WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT LAW, TORT LAW OR OTHERWISE), SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF
THE STATE OF FLORIDA, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS
PRINCIPLES. COMPANY HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE
OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED WITHIN MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, STATE OF FLORIDA AND
IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT, SUBJECT TO THE PURCHASER’S ELECTION, ALL ACTIONS OR
PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER FINANCING
DOCUMENTS SHALL BE LITIGATED IN SUCH COURTS. COMPANY EXPRESSLY
SUBMITS AND CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS AND WAIVES ANY
DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS. COMPANY HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL
SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS AND AGREES THAT ALL SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS MAY

28
Section
7.10 Survival. Except
as set forth herein, the representations, warranties, agreements and covenants
contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery, exercise and/or
conversion of the Securities, as applicable for the applicable statute of
limitations.
Section
7.11 Execution. This
Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken
together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become
effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the
other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same
counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by
facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid and binding
obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is
executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page
were an original thereof.
Section
7.12 Severability. If
any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable in any
respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions
of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the
parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision that is a
reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such
substitute provision in this Agreement.
Section
7.13
Remedies. In
addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by
law, including recovery of damages, Purchaser and the Company will be entitled
to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties
agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss
incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing
sentence and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance of
any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be
adequate.
Section
7.14 Payment Set Aside. To
the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to Purchaser pursuant to
any Transaction Document or Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights
thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or
exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be
fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are
required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee,
receiver or any other person under any law (including, without limitation, any
bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action),
then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof
originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force
and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff
had not occurred.
29
Section
7.15 No
Usury. To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Company hereby
agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will
resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of,
usury laws wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in
connection with any claim, action or proceeding that may be brought by Purchaser
in order to enforce any right or remedy under any Transaction
Document. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in
any Transaction Document, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total
liability of the Company under the Transaction Documents for payments in the
nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized under
applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), and,
without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate of interest or
default interest, or both of them, when aggregated with any other sums in the
nature of interest that the Company may be obligated to pay under the
Transaction Documents exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if
the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law and applicable to the
Transaction Documents is increased or decreased by statute or any official
governmental action subsequent to the date hereof, the new maximum contract rate
of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to the
Transaction Documents from the effective date forward, unless such application
is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances
whatsoever, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to
Purchaser with respect to indebtedness evidenced by the Transaction Documents,
such excess shall be applied by Purchaser to the unpaid principal balance of any
such indebtedness or be refunded to the Company, the manner of handling such
excess to be at Purchaser’s election.
