subsidiaries is duly qualified to conduct business and is in good
standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each
jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or

effect on the results of operations, assets, business, prospects or

Effect”), and no Proceeding has been instituted in any
such jurisdiction revoking, limiting or curtailing or seeking to
revoke, limit or curtail such power and authority or
qualification.
(b) Authorization;

connection with the Required Approvals. This Agreement and each
other Transaction Document to which it is a party has been (or upon

of the Company or a Subsidiary is bound or affected; except in the
case of each of clauses (ii) and (iii), such as could not have or

the Company, the Intellectual Property licensed to the Company has
not been adjudged invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part,
and there is no pending or threatened action, suit, proceeding or
claim by others challenging the validity or scope of any such
Intellectual Property, and the Company is unaware of any facts
which would form a reasonable basis for any such claim; (iv) there
is no pending or threatened action, suit, proceeding or claim by
others that the Company infringes, misappropriates or otherwise
violates any Intellectual Property or other proprietary rights of
others, the Company has not received any written notice of such

form a reasonable basis for any such claim; and (v) to the
Company’s knowledge, no employee of the Company is in or has
ever been in violation of any term of any employment contract,

technology, know-how and other intellectual property.

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, including, but not limited to,
directors and officers insurance coverage. Neither the Company nor
any subsidiary has any reason to believe that 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 set forth in the SEC Reports, none of
the officers or directors of the Company or any Subsidiary and, to
the knowledge of the Company, none of the employees of the Company
or any Subsidiary is presently a party to any transaction with the
Company or any Subsidiary (other than for services as 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
providing for the borrowing of money from or lending of money to,
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, stockholder, member
or partner, in each case in excess of $120,000 other than for (i)
payment of salary or consulting fees for services rendered, (ii)
reimbursement for expenses incurred on behalf of the Company and
(iii) other employee benefits, including equity awards under any
equity incentive plan of the Company.
(r) Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx; Internal Accounting
Controls. The Company and the Subsidiaries are in compliance
with any and all applicable requirements of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act
of 2002 that are effective as of the date hereof, and any and all
applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the Commission
thereunder that are effective as of the date hereof and as of the
Closing Date. The Company and the
Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls
sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that: (i) transactions
are executed in accordance with management’s general or
specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (iii)
access to assets is permitted only in accordance with
management’s general or specific authorization, and (iv) the
recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing
assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with
respect to any differences. The Company and the Subsidiaries have
established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company and the
Subsidiaries and designed such disclosure controls and procedures
to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company
in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time
periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. The
Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the
effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures of the
Company and the Subsidiaries as of the end of the period covered by
the most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act
(such date, the “Evaluation
Date”). The Company
presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the
Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the
effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on
their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation
Date, there have been no changes in the internal control over
financial reporting (as such term is defined in the Exchange Act)
that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting of
the Company and its Subsidiaries.
9
(s) Certain Fees. There are no
brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions are or will be
payable by the Company or any subsidiaries to any broker, financial
advisor or consultant, finder, placement agent, investment banker,
bank or other Person with respect to the transactions contemplated
by the Transaction Documents. The Purchaser shall have no
obligation with respect to any fees or with respect to any claims
made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type
contemplated in this Section that may be due in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents.
(t) Private Placement. Assuming the
accuracy of the Purchaser’s representations and warranties
set forth in Section 3.2, no registration under the Securities Act
is required for the offer and sale of the Securities by the Company
to the Purchaser as contemplated hereby. The issuance and sale of
the Securities hereunder does not contravene the rules and
regulations of the Trading Market.

conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become an
“investment company” subject to registration under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
(v) Registration Rights. Other than
with respect to the Company’s existing registration
statements filed under the Securities Act, or as otherwise
disclosed in the SEC Reports or Schedule 3.1(v) and other than
Purchaser, no Person has any right to cause the Company or any
Subsidiary to effect the registration under the Securities Act of
any securities of the Company or any Subsidiaries.
(w) Listing and Maintenance
Requirements. The Common Stock is registered pursuant to
Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act. The Company has taken
no action designed to, or which to its knowledge is likely to have
the effect of, terminating the registration of the Common Stock
under the Exchange Act nor has the Company received any
notification that the Commission is contemplating terminating such
registration. The Common Stock is currently eligible for electronic
transfer through the Depository Trust Company or another
established clearing corporation and the Company is current in
payment of the fees to the Depository Trust Company (or such other
established clearing corporation) in connection with such
electronic transfer.
(x) Disclosure. Except with respect
to the material terms and conditions of the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Company confirms
that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf has
provided Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any information
that it believes constitutes or might constitute material,
non-public information. The Company understands and confirms that
Purchaser will rely on the foregoing representation in effecting
transactions in securities of the Company. All of the disclosure
furnished by or on behalf of the Company to Purchaser regarding the
Company and its Subsidiaries, their respective businesses and the
transactions contemplated hereby, including the Disclosure
Schedules to this Agreement, is true and correct and does not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading.
(y) Tax Status. Except for matters
that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the
Company and its Subsidiaries each (i) has made or filed all United
States federal, state and local income and all foreign income and
franchise tax returns, reports and declarations required by any
jurisdiction to which it is subject, (ii) 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 and (iii) has set aside on its books provision
reasonably adequate for the payment of all material 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 or of any Subsidiary
know of no basis for any such claim.
(z) Foreign Corrupt Practices.
Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, nor to the knowledge of the
Company or any Subsidiary, any agent or other person acting on
behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary, has (i) directly or
indirectly, used any funds for unlawful contributions, gifts,
entertainment or other unlawful expenses related to foreign or
domestic political activity, (ii) made any unlawful payment to
foreign or domestic government officials or employees or to any
foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns from corporate
funds, (iii) failed to disclose fully any contribution made by the

behalf of which the Company is aware) which is in violation of law
or (iv) violated in any material respect any provision of
FCPA.
(aa) Accountants.
The Company’s accounting firm is BDO USA, LLP. To the
knowledge and belief of the Company, such accounting firm (i) is a
registered public accounting firm as required by the Exchange Act
and (ii) shall express its opinion with respect to the financial
statements to be included in the Company’s Annual Report for
the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018.

(bb) Acknowledgment
Regarding Purchaser’s Purchase of Securities. The
Company acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser is acting solely
in the capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to
the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated
thereby. The Company further acknowledges that no Purchaser is
acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in
any similar capacity) with respect to the Transaction Documents and
the transactions contemplated thereby and any advice given by
Purchaser or any of their respective representatives or agents in
connection with the Transaction Documents and the transactions
contemplated thereby is merely incidental to the Purchaser’s
purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents to
Purchaser that the Company’s decision to enter into this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents has been based solely
on the independent evaluation of the transactions contemplated
hereby by the Company and its representatives.
(cc) Regulation
M Compliance. The Company has not, and to its
knowledge no one acting on its behalf has, (i) taken, directly or
indirectly, any action designed to cause or to result in the
stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the
Company to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the Securities,
(ii) sold, bid for, purchased, or paid any compensation for
soliciting purchases of, any of the Securities, or (iii) paid or
agreed to pay to any Person any compensation for soliciting another
to purchase any other securities of the Company.
(dd) No
General Solicitation. Neither the Company nor any person
acting on behalf of the Company has offered or sold any of the
Securities by any form of general solicitation or general
advertising. The Company has offered the Securities for sale only
to the Purchaser and certain other “accredited
investors” within the meaning of Rule 501 under the
Securities Act.
(ee) No
Disqualification Events. With respect to the Securities to
be offered and sold hereunder in reliance on Rule 506 under the
Securities Act, none of the Company, any of its predecessors, any
affiliated issuer, any director, executive officer, other officer
of the Company participating in the offering hereunder, any
beneficial owner of 20% or more of the Company’s outstanding
voting equity securities, calculated on the basis of voting power,
nor any promoter (as that term is defined in Rule 405 under the
Securities Act) connected with the Company in any capacity at the
time of sale (each, an “Issuer Covered Person”
and, together, “Issuer Covered Persons”)
is subject to any of the "Bad Actor" disqualifications described in
Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the Securities Act (a
“Disqualification
Event”), except for a Disqualification Event covered
by Rule 506(d)(2) or (d)(3). The Company has exercised reasonable
care to determine whether any Issuer Covered Person is subject to a
Disqualification Event. The Company has complied, to the extent
applicable, with its disclosure obligations under Rule 506(e), and
has furnished to the Purchaser a copy of any disclosures provided
thereunder.
(ff) Other
Covered Persons. The Company is not aware of any person
(other than any Issuer Covered Person) that has been or will be
paid (directly or indirectly) remuneration for solicitation of
purchasers in connection with the sale of any
Securities.
(gg) Notice
of Disqualification Events. The Company will notify the
Purchaser in writing, prior to the Closing Date of (i) any
Disqualification Event relating to any Issuer Covered Person and
(ii) any event that would, with the passage of time, become a
Disqualification Event relating to any Issuer Covered
Person.
3.2 Representations and Warranties of the
Purchaser. Purchaser hereby represents and warrants as of
the date hereof and as of the Closing Date to the Company as
follows (unless as of a specific date therein, in which case they
shall be accurate as of such date):
(a) Organization; Authority.
Purchaser is either an individual or an entity duly incorporated or
formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation with full right,
corporate, partnership, limited liability company or similar power
and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry
out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution and
delivery of the Transaction Documents and performance by Purchaser
of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership,
limited liability company or similar action, as applicable, on the
part of Purchaser. Each Transaction Document to which it is a party
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, except (i) as limited by
general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application
affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as
limited by laws relating to the availability of specific
performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and
(iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions may be
limited by applicable law.
(b) Own Account. Purchaser
understands that the Securities are “restricted
securities” and have not been registered under the Securities
Act or any applicable state securities law and is acquiring the
Securities as principal for its own account and not with a view to
or for distributing or reselling such Securities or any part
thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state
securities law, has no present intention of distributing any of
such Securities in violation of the Securities Act or any
applicable state securities law and has no direct or indirect
arrangement or understandings with any other persons to distribute
or regarding the distribution of such Securities in violation of
the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law (this
representation and warranty not limiting such Purchaser’s
right to sell the Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement
or otherwise in compliance with applicable federal and state
securities laws). Purchaser is acquiring the Securities hereunder
in the ordinary course of its business.
11
(c) Purchaser Status. At the time
Purchaser was offered the Securities, it was, and as of the date
hereof it is, and on each date on which it converts any Notes it
will be an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule
501(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3), (a)(7) or (a)(8) under the Securities
Act. Purchaser is not required to be registered as a broker-dealer
under Section 15 of the Exchange Act.
(d) 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.
(e) 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, to the
knowledge of such Purchaser, any other general solicitation or
general advertisement.
(f) Access to Information.
Purchaser acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to review
the Transaction Documents (including all exhibits and schedules
thereto) and the SEC Reports and has been afforded (i) the
opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of,
and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company
concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the
Securities and the merits and risks of investing in the Securities;
(ii) access to information about the Company and its financial
condition, results of operations, business, properties, management
and prospects sufficient to enable it to evaluate its investment;
and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such additional information
that the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable
effort or expense that is necessary to make an informed investment
decision with respect to the investment.
(g) Certain Transactions and
Confidentiality. Other than consummating the transactions
contemplated hereunder, Purchaser has not, nor has any Person
acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with
Purchaser, directly or indirectly executed any purchases or sales,
including Short Sales, of the securities of the Company during the
period commencing as of the time that Purchaser first received a
term sheet (written or oral) from the Company or any other Person
representing the Company setting forth the material terms of the
transactions contemplated hereunder and ending immediately prior to
the execution hereof. The Purchaser
covenants and agrees that neither it, nor any Affiliate acting on
its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute
any Short Sales of the Common Stock or (ii) hedging transaction,
which establishes a net short position with respect to the
Company’s Common Stock during the period commencing with the
execution of this Agreement and ending on the earlier Maturity Date
(as defined in the Notes) of the Notes or the full repayment or
conversion of the Notes; provided that this provision shall not
prohibit any sales made where a corresponding Notice of Conversion
is tendered to the Company and the shares received upon such
conversion or exercise are used to close out such sale; provided,
further that this provision shall not operate to restrict a
Purchaser’s trading under any prior securities purchase
agreement containing contractual rights that explicitly protects
such trading in respect of the previously issued
securities.
12
ARTICLE IV.
OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
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 or Rule 144, to the
Company or to an Affiliate of a Purchaser or in connection with a
pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), 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 the Registration Rights Agreement and shall
have the rights and obligations of a Purchaser under this Agreement
and the Registration Rights Agreement.
(b) The Purchaser
agrees to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section
4.1, of a legend on any of the Securities in the following
form:
[NEITHER] THIS
SECURITY [NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS SECURITY IS
[CONVERTIBLE]] HAS [NOT] 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. THIS SECURITY
[AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON [CONVERSION] OF THIS SECURITY]
MAY BE PLEDGED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THE SECURITIES
PURCHASE AGREMENTAGREEMENT DATED AS OF [▪], IN CONNECTION
WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR
OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN
“ACCREDITED INVESTOR” AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH
SECURITIES.
The
Company acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser may from time to
time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a
registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or
all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an
“accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under
the Securities Act and, if required under the terms of such
arrangement, such Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured
Securities to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or
transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company and no
legal opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party or
pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further, no
notice shall be required of such pledge. At the Purchaser’s
expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable
documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Securities may
reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the
Securities, including, if the Securities are subject to
registration pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the
preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under
Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act or other applicable
provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of
Selling Stockholders (as defined in the Registration Rights
Agreement) thereunder.
(c) Certificates
evidencing the 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, (ii) following any sale of such Underlying
Shares pursuant to Rule 144, (iii) if such Underlying Shares are
eligible for sale under Rule 144 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). The Company shall cause its counsel
to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly if required
by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend
hereunder, provided that the Purchaser has delivered any documents
required by the Company’s counsel in connection therewith
(including any representations, certifications or covenants by the
Purchaser or its broker). If all or any portion of a Note is
converted 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 the
requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current
public information required under Rule 144 as to such Underlying
Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or if such
legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of
the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and
pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) then such
Underlying Shares shall be issued free of all legends. The Company
agrees that following such time as such legend is no longer
required under this Section 4.1(c), it will, no later than two (2)
Trading Days following the delivery by Purchaser to the Transfer
Agent of a certificate representing Underlying Shares, as
applicable, issued with a restrictive legend together with such
documents or instruments as may be required by the Transfer Agent
(including any representations, certifications or covenants by the
Purchaser or its broker) (such date, the “Legend Removal Date”),
deliver or cause to be delivered to such 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 the Transfer Agent that enlarge the
restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 4. Certificates
for Underlying Shares subject to legend removal hereunder shall be
transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Purchaser by crediting the
account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository
Trust Company System as directed by such Purchaser.
(d) Purchaser agrees
with the Company that Purchaser will sell any Securities pursuant
to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act,
including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an
exemption therefrom, and that if Securities are sold pursuant to a
Registration Statement, they will be sold in compliance with the
plan of distribution set forth therein, and acknowledges that the
removal of the restrictive legend from certificates representing
Securities as set forth in this Section 4.1 is predicated upon the
Company’s reliance upon this understanding.
13
4.2 Furnishing of Information; Public
Information.
(a) Until the earliest
of the time that Purchaser owns no Securities, the Company
covenants to maintain the registration of the Common Stock under
Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and 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 even if the Company is
not then subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange
Act.
(b) At
any time during the period commencing from the six (6) month
anniversary of the date hereof and ending at such time that all of
the Securities may be sold without the requirement for the Company
to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) and otherwise without
restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144, if the Company (i)
shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public information
requirement under Rule 144(c) or (ii) has ever been an issuer
described in Rule 144 (i)(1)(i) or becomes such an issuer in the
future, and the Company shall fail to satisfy any condition set
forth in Rule 144(i)(2) (a “Public Information
Failure”) then, in addition to such Purchaser’s
other available remedies, the Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in
cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, by reason
of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the
Securities, an amount in cash equal to one percent (1.0%) of the
aggregate Subscription Amount of such Purchaser’s Securities
on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every thirtieth
(30th) day
(pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) thereafter
until the earlier of (a) the date such Public Information Failure
is cured and (b) such time that such public information is no
longer required for the Purchasers to transfer the Underlying
Shares pursuant to Rule 144, up to a maximum of three percent (3%)
of the aggregate Subscription Amount of such Purchaser’s
Securities on the day of a Public Information Failure. The payments
to which Purchaser shall be entitled pursuant to this Section
4.2(b) are referred to herein as “Public Information Failure
Payments.” Public Information
Failure Payments shall
be paid on the earlier of (i) the last day of the calendar month
during which such Public Information Failure Payments are incurred and (ii) the
third (3rd) Business Day after
the event or failure giving rise to the Public Information
Failure Payments is
cured. In the event the Company fails to make Public
Information Failure Payments in a timely manner, such
Public Information Failure Payments shall bear interest at
the rate of 1.5% per month (prorated for partial months) until paid
in full. Nothing herein shall limit Purchaser’s right to
pursue actual damages for the Public Information Failure, and such
Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to
it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of
specific performance and/or injunctive relief.
4.3 Conversion Procedures. The form
of Notice of Conversion included in the Notes set forth the totality of the
procedures required of the Purchaser in order to or convert the
Notes. Without limiting the preceding sentences, no ink-original
Notice of Conversion shall be required, nor shall any medallion
guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any
Notice of Conversion form be required in order to or convert the
Notes. No additional legal opinion, other information or
instructions shall be required of the Purchaser to convert their
Notes. The Company shall honor conversions of the Notes, subject to
Section 4.9, and shall deliver Underlying Shares in accordance with
the terms, conditions and time periods set forth in the Transaction
Documents.

alternatively, a Current Report on Form 8-K) disclosing the

issuance of such press release, the Company represents to the
Purchaser that it shall have publicly disclosed all material,
non-public information delivered to the Purchaser by the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers,
directors, employees or agents in connection with the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents. In addition, effective

and agrees that any and all confidentiality or similar obligations
under any agreement, whether written or oral, between the Company,
any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers,
directors, agents, employees or Affiliates on the one hand, and the
Purchaser or any of their Affiliates on the other hand, shall
terminate. The Company and Purchaser shall consult with each other
in issuing any other press releases with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby, and neither the Company nor
Purchaser shall issue any such press release nor otherwise make any
such public statement without the prior consent of the Company,
with respect to any press release of Purchaser, or without the
prior consent of Purchaser, with respect to any press release of
the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or
delayed, except if such disclosure is required by law, in which
case the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party
with prior notice of such public statement or communication.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, 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 Trading
Market, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, except (a)
as required by federal securities law in connection with (i) any
registration statement contemplated by the Registration Rights
Agreement and (ii) the filing of final Transaction Documents with
the Commission and (b) to the extent such disclosure is required by
law or Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company shall
provide Purchaser with prior notice of such disclosure permitted
under this clause (b).

claim will be made or enforced by the Company or, with the consent
of the Company, any other Person, that Purchaser is an
“Acquiring
Person” under any control share acquisition, business
combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights
agreement) or similar anti-takeover plan or arrangement in effect
or hereafter adopted by the Company, or that Purchaser could be
deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement,
by virtue of receiving Securities under the Transaction
Documents.
4.6 Non-Public Information. Except
with respect to the material terms and conditions of the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, which shall
be disclosed pursuant to Section 4.4, 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 constitutes, or the Company reasonably believes
constitutes, material non-public information, unless prior thereto
Purchaser shall have consented to the receipt of such information
and agreed with the Company to keep such information confidential.
The Company understands and confirms that Purchaser shall be
relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in
securities of the Company. To the extent that any notice provided
pursuant to any Transaction Document constitutes, or contains,
material, non-public information regarding the Company or any
Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice
with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The
Company understands and confirms that Purchaser shall be relying on
the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of
the Company.
14
4.7 Use of Proceeds. The Company
shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities
hereunder solely for the payment of retainers for the services of
FSS and Xxxxxx.
4.8 Indemnification of Purchaser.
Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.8, the Company will
indemnify and hold Purchaser and its directors, officers,
shareholders, members, partners, employees and agents (and any
other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person
holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any
other title), each Person who controls such Purchaser (within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the
Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, shareholders, agents,
members, partners or employees (and any other Persons with a
functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles
notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such
controlling persons (each, a “Purchaser 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
Purchaser Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to
(a) any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants
or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other
Transaction Documents or (b) any action instituted against the
Purchaser Parties in any capacity, or any of them or their
respective Affiliates, by any stockholder of the Company who is not
an Affiliate of such Purchaser Party, with respect to any of the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (unless such
action is solely based upon a material breach of such Purchaser
Party’s representations, warranties or covenants under the
Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings such
Purchaser Party may have with any such stockholder or any
violations by such Purchaser Party of state or federal securities
laws or any conduct by such Purchaser Party which is finally
judicially determined to constitute fraud, gross negligence or
willful misconduct). If any action shall be brought against any
Purchaser Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought
pursuant to this Agreement, such Purchaser Party shall promptly
notify the Company in writing, and the Company shall have the right
to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing
reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser Party. Any Purchaser 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 Purchaser Party
except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been
specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company
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 counsel, a material conflict on any material
issue between the position of the Company and the position of such
Purchaser Party, in which case the Company shall be responsible for
the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate
counsel. The Company will not be liable to any Purchaser Party
under this Agreement (y) for any settlement by a Purchaser Party
effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (z) to the
extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or
liability is attributable to any Purchaser Party’s breach of
any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements
made by such Purchaser Party in this Agreement or in the other
Transaction Documents.
4.9 Reservation of Securities. As
of the date hereof, the Company has reserved, free of preemptive
rights, that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Required
Minimum for the purpose of enabling the Company to issue Shares
pursuant to this Agreement. Any conversion rights or other rights
to receive shares that the Holder(s) have either under this
Agreement or in the Notes will be conditioned on the Company having
available sufficient authorized shares in excess of the outstanding
and reserved shares outlined in Schedule 3.1(f).
4.10 Listing
of Common Stock. The Company hereby agrees to use best
efforts to maintain the listing or quotation of the Common Stock on
the Trading Market on which it is currently listed, and
concurrently with the Closing, if required, the Company shall apply
to list or quote all of the Shares on such Trading Market. The
Company further agrees, if the Company applies to have the Common
Stock traded on any other Trading Market, it will then include in
such application all of the Shares, and will take such other action
as is necessary to cause all of the Shares to be listed on such
other Trading Market as promptly as possible. The Company will then
take all action reasonably necessary to continue the listing or
quotation and trading of its Common Stock on a Trading Market and
will comply in all respects with the Company’s reporting,
filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the
Trading Market. The Company agrees to maintain the eligibility of
the Common Stock for electronic transfer through the Depository
Trust Company or another established clearing corporation,
including, without limitation, by timely payment of fees to the
Depository Trust Company or such other established clearing
corporation in connection with such electronic
transfer.
4.11 Intentionally
Omitted.
4.12 Certain
Transactions and Confidentiality. Purchaser covenants that
neither it, nor any Affiliate acting on its behalf or pursuant to
any understanding with it will execute any purchases or sales,
including Short Sales, of any of the Company’s securities
during the period commencing with the execution of this Agreement
and ending at such time that the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial
press release as described in Section 4.4. Purchaser
covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company pursuant to
the initial press release as described in Section 4.4, such
Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of the existence and
terms of this transaction and the information included in the
Disclosure Schedules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and
notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary (except for Section 3.2(g)), the Company expressly
acknowledges and agrees that (i) no Purchaser makes any
representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage
in effecting transactions in any securities of the Company after
the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are
first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as
described in Section 4.4, (ii) no Purchaser shall be restricted or
prohibited from effecting any transactions in any securities of the
Company in accordance with applicable securities laws from and
after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release
as described in Section 4.4 and (iii) no Purchaser shall have any
duty of confidentiality or duty not to trade in the securities of
the Company to the Company or its Subsidiaries after the issuance
of the initial press release as described in Section
4.4.
4.13 Form
D; Blue Sky Filings. The Company agrees to timely file a
Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation
D and to provide a copy thereof, promptly upon request of
Purchaser. The Company shall take such action as the Company shall
reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption
for, or to qualify the Securities for, sale to the Purchaser at the
Closing under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws
of the states of the United States, and shall provide evidence of
such actions promptly upon request of Purchaser.
15
ARTICLE V.
MISCELLANEOUS
5.1 Termination. This
Agreement may be terminated by Purchaser, as to Purchaser’s
obligations hereunder, by written notice to the other parties, if
the Closing has not been consummated on or before the fifth

Trading Day following the date hereof, provided, however, that no such
termination will affect the right of any party to xxx for any
breach by any other party (or parties).
5.2 Fees and Expenses. Except as expressly set forth in the Transaction
Documents to the contrary, each party shall pay the fees and
expenses of its advisers, counsel, accountants and other experts,

stamp taxes and other taxes and duties levied in connection with
the delivery of any Securities to the
Purchaser.
5.3 Entire Agreement. The
Transaction Documents, together with the exhibits and schedules
thereto, contain the entire understanding of the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all
prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect
to such matters, which the parties acknowledge have been merged
into such documents, exhibits and schedules.
5.4 Notices. Any and all notices or
other communications or deliveries required or permitted to be
provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given

8-K.
5.5 Amendments; Waivers. No
provision of this Agreement may be waived, modified, supplemented
or amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an
amendment, by the Company and Purchaser. 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 any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner
impair the exercise of any such right. Any amendment effected in
accordance with this Section 5.5 shall be binding upon each
Purchaser and holder of Securities and the Company.
5.6 Headings. 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.
5.7 Successors and Assigns. This

parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The Company may
not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of Purchaser (other than by

Agreement to any Person to whom such Purchaser assigns or transfers
any Securities, provided that such transferee agrees in writing to
be bound, with respect to the transferred Securities, by the
provisions of the Transaction Documents that apply to the
“Purchaser.”
5.8 No Third-Party Beneficiaries.
This Agreement is intended for the benefit of 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, except as otherwise set forth in Section
4.8.
16
5.9 Governing Law. All questions
concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and
interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall be governed by
and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of
the State of Florida, without regard to the principles of conflicts
of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal Proceedings
concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other
Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or
its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders,
partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced
exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the state of
Florida. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the state
of Florida for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in
connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or
discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any
of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and
agrees not to assert in any Action or Proceeding, any claim that it
is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court,
that such Action or Proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient
venue for such Proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives
personal service of process and consents to process being served in
any such Action or Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via
registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence
of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to
it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall
constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice
thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any
way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by
law. If any party shall commence an Action or Proceeding to enforce
any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then, in addition to
the obligations of the Company under Section 4.10, the prevailing
party in such Action or Proceeding shall be reimbursed by the
non-prevailing party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and
other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation,
preparation and prosecution of such Action or
Proceeding.
5.10 Survival.
The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive
the Closing and the delivery of the Securities.
5.11 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 each other party, it being
understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In
the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission
or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file,
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 or
“.pdf” signature page were an original
thereof.
5.12 Severability.
If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement
is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall
remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected,
impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their
commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative
means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that
contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It
is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the
parties that they would have executed the remaining terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of
such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or
unenforceable.
5.13 Rescission
and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions
of) any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever Purchaser
exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction
Document and the Company does not timely perform its related
obligations within the periods therein provided, then Purchaser may
rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon
written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or
election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future
actions and rights; provided, however, that, in the case of a
rescission of a conversion of a Note, the Purchaser shall be
required to return any shares of Common Stock subject to any such
rescinded conversion notice concurrently with the restoration of
Purchaser’s right to acquire such shares pursuant to the
Transaction Documents.
5.14 Replacement
of Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing
any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company
shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for
and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation), or in
lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument,
but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of such loss, theft or destruction. The applicant for a new
certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay
any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity)
associated with the issuance of such replacement
Securities.
5.15 Remedies.
In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided
herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, the
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 contained in the Transaction
Documents and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any Action
for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a
remedy at law would be adequate.
5.16 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.
17
5.17 Intentionally
Omitted.
5.18 Liquidated
Damages. The Company’s obligations to pay any partial
liquidated damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction
Documents is a continuing obligation of the Company and shall not
terminate until all unpaid partial liquidated damages and other
amounts have been paid notwithstanding the fact that the instrument
or security pursuant to which such partial liquidated damages or
other amounts are due and payable shall have been
canceled.
5.19 Saturdays,
Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the
taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or
granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be
taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding
Business Day.
5.20 Construction.
The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel
have reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction
Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the
effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting
party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the
Transaction Documents or any amendments thereto. In addition, each
and every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in
any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse
and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and
other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the
date of this Agreement.
5.21 WAIVER
OF JURY TRIAL. IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY
JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY, THE
PARTIES EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO THE GREATEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY,

JURY.
