3.23 Third Party Consents. Except as set forth in Schedule 3.23, to the Company’s knowledge, no consent or approval is needed from any third party in order to effect the issuance and sale of the Shares (and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares) or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including schedules and exhibits hereto) and the Ancillary Agreements.
4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASERS. Each of the Purchasers represents and warrants to the Company, on behalf of itself and not on behalf of the others, as follows:
4.1 Accredited Investor. Such Purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act, and understands that the Company has relied upon its being an accredited investor in deciding to proceed with the transactions contemplated hereby, and in ascertaining the requirements of law applicable to the issuance and sale of the Shares. The Purchaser’s financial condition is such that the Purchaser is able to bear all economic risks of investment in the Shares, including a complete loss of the Purchaser’s investments therein. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has provided it with adequate access to financial and other information concerning the Company as requested and that it has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company concerning the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and to obtain therefrom any additional information necessary to make an informed decision regarding an investment in the Company.
4.2 Investment. The Purchaser is acquiring the Shares, and the shares of Series A Common Stock into which the Shares may be converted, for its own account for investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof, nor with any present intention of distributing or selling the same; and, except as contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, the Purchaser has no present or contemplated agreement, undertaking, arrangement, obligation, indebtedness or commitment providing for the disposition thereof.
4.3 Authority. The Purchaser has full power and authority to enter into and to perform this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements in accordance with their respective terms. The Purchaser represents that it has not been organized, reorganized or recapitalized specifically for the purpose of investing in the Company. This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements have been duly executed and delivered by the Purchaser and constitute valid and binding obligations of each enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms. The execution of and performance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and compliance with the respective provisions thereof by each of the Purchasers will not, to its knowledge, violate any provision of law and, if applicable, will not conflict with or result in any material breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of or constitute a material default under, or require a consent or waiver under, its organizational documents (if any, and each as amended to date and as in effect as of the date hereof) or any indenture, lease, agreement or other instrument to which the Purchaser is a party or by which it or any of its properties (whether tangible or intangible) is bound, or any decree, judgment, order, statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Purchaser.
-11-
4.4 Unregistered Securities. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Shares, and any shares issuable upon conversion thereof, must be held indefinitely until such time as they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The Purchaser has been advised or is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, which currently permits limited resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including, among other things: the availability of certain current public information about the Company, the resale occurring not less than one year after a party has purchased and paid for the security to be sold, the sale being through an unsolicited “broker’s transaction” or in transactions directly with a market maker (as such term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) and the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations.
4.5 Principal Place of Business. The address of the residence or the principal place of business, as applicable, the latter of which is the office in which the Purchaser’s investment decision was made, is accurately set forth on Attachment 1.
4.6 Brokers. The Purchaser has not retained any finder or broker in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Purchaser separately agrees to indemnify and save the Company harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities or obligations with respect to brokerage or finders’ fees or commissions in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement asserted by any Person on the basis of any agreement, statement or representation alleged to have been made by such Purchaser.
4.7 Foreign Investors. If the Purchaser is not a United States Person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), such Purchaser hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Shares or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Shares, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any government or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale or transfer of the Shares. The Company’s offer and sale and Purchaser’s subscription and payment for and continued beneficial ownership of the Shares will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of Purchaser’s jurisdiction.
4.8 Transfer Restrictions. Each Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Shares and, if issued, the Conversion Shares are subject to restrictions on transfer as set forth in the Investor Rights Agreement.
5. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT OF THE PURCHASERS.
