Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Investor, or include the name of any Investor in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without the prior written consent of such Investor, 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 the Investors with prior notice of such disclosure permitted under this clause (b).

4.4 Legends. 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 (as defined below), to the Company or to an affiliate of a Investor 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 1933 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 an Investor under this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement. Each Investor understands that the certificates or other instruments representing the Notes and the Warrants and, the stock certificates representing the Underlying Securities, except as set forth below, shall bear any legends as required by applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws in addition to a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such stock certificates):

NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE [CONVERTIBLE] [EXERCISABLE] HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, IN A FORM GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY’S LEGAL COUNSEL, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT.

The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its transfer agent to remove the legend set forth above and to issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of the Securities upon which it is stamped, or to issue to such holder by electronic delivery at the applicable balance account at the Depository Trust Company, unless otherwise required by state securities or “blue sky” laws, at such time as (i) such Securities are registered for resale under the 1933 Act, (ii) in connection with a sale, assignment or other transfer, such holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in a form generally acceptable to the Company’s legal counsel, to the effect that such sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities may be made without registration under the 1933 Act, or (iii) such holder provides the Company and its legal counsel with reasonable assurance in writing that the Securities can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A. The Company agrees that, following the Effective Date or at such time as such legend is not required pursuant to this Section 4.4, the Company shall, no later than three Trading Days following the delivery by such Investor to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a certificate representing Underlying Securities issued with a restrictive legend (such third Trading Day, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to such Investor a certificate representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends. In addition to any other rights available to an Investor, if the Company fails to cause the Company’s transfer agent to transmit to such Investor a certificate or the certificates representing such Underlying Securities on or before the Legend Removal Date, and if after such date such Investor is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or such Investor’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Investor of such Underlying Securities which such Investor anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to such Investor the amount, if any, by which (x) such Investor’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Underlying Securities that the Company was required to deliver to such Investor in such legend removal times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) deliver to such Investor the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder (the “Buy-In Liquidated Damages”). For example, if such Investor purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the such Investor $1,000. Such Investor shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to such Investor in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss.

5. Representations and Warranties of the Company. Except as set forth in the Disclosure Schedules, which Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed a part hereof and shall qualify any representation or otherwise made herein to the extent of the disclosure contained in the corresponding section of the Disclosure Schedules, the Company hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Investors:

Except as a result of the purchase and sale of the Securities, there are no outstanding options, warrants, scrip rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities, rights or obligations convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or giving any Person any right to subscribe for or acquire any shares of Common Stock, or contracts, commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents. 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 the Investors) and will not result in a right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under any of such securities.

5.3 Authorization; Enforcement. All corporate action on the part of the Company, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Warrants, the Registration Rights Agreement and the performance of all obligations of the Company hereunder and thereunder, and the authorization (or reservation for issuance), sale and issuance of the Notes and the Warrants, and the Common Stock into which the Notes and Warrants are convertible or exercisable, have been taken on or prior to the date hereof. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party has been (or upon delivery will have been) duly executed by the Company and, when delivered in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, will constitute the valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company 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.

Neither the Company nor any authorized agent acting on its behalf will take any action hereafter that would cause the loss of such exemptions.

Such Investor has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and has taken all action necessary to authorize the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

6.2 No Public Sale or Distribution. Such Investor is (i) acquiring the Notes and the Warrants and (ii) upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants will acquire the Underlying Securities for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution of any part thereof, except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the 1933 Act. Such Investor is acquiring the Securities hereunder in the ordinary course of its business. Such Investor does not presently have any contract, agreement, undertaking, arrangement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any individual, a limited liability company, a partnership, a joint venture, a corporation, a trust, an unincorporated organization and a government or any department or agency thereof (a “Person”) to sell, transfer, pledge, assign or otherwise distribute any of the Securities.

6.3 Accredited Investor Status; Investment Experience. Such Investor is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D. Such Investor can bear the economic risk of its investment in the Securities, and has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities.

6.4 Reliance on Exemptions. Such Investor understands that the Securities are being offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and such Investor’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Investor set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Investor to acquire the Securities.

6.5 Information. Such Investor and its advisors, if any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities which have been requested by such Investor. Such Investor and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigations conducted by such Investor or its advisors, if any, or its representatives shall modify, amend or affect such Investor’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained herein. Such Investor understands that its investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk. Such Investor has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Securities. Such Investor is relying solely on its own accounting, legal and tax advisors, and not on any statements of the Company or any of its agents or representatives, for such accounting, legal and tax advice with respect to its acquisition of the Securities and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6.6 No Governmental Review. Such Investor understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Securities nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Securities.

6.7 Validity; Enforcement; No Conflicts. This Agreement and each Transaction Document to which such Investor is a party have been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of such Investor and shall constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Investor enforceable against such Investor in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies. The execution, delivery and performance by such Investor of this Agreement and each Transaction Document to which such Investor is a party and the consummation by such Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents of such Investor or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which 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 of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which such Investor is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities or “blue sky” laws) applicable to such Investor, except in the case of clause (ii) above, for such conflicts, defaults or rights which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of such Investor to perform its obligations hereunder.

6.8 Residency. Such Investor is a resident of that jurisdiction specified on such Investor’s signature page hereto.

6.9 Company Has Senior Indebtedness Outstanding. Such Investor acknowledges that the Company has outstanding currently secured Indebtedness that is senior in right of payment with the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes and the Company as designated and set forth on Schedule 5.19 attached hereto (such senior Indebtedness, the “Senior Debt”). Such Investor expressly acknowledges that its Note is subordinated to the Senior Debt.

7. Use of Proceeds; Repayment of Deferred Compensation to Xxxxx or Xxxxx Note. Each Investor acknowledges that the Company will use the proceeds received from the purchase of the Notes and the Warrants for, among other things, (i) costs and expenses relating to the Company’s Phase II Clinical Studies in cervical cancer and CIN, (ii) ) up to $200,000 (the “Xxxxx Repayment Amount”) of the Purchase Price paid to the Company at the Closing may be used to repay Xxxxx Indebtedness (as defined below), (iii) costs and expenses relating to the sale of the Notes and the Warrants, and (iii) general working capital purposes. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Investor acknowledges that the Company may, out of other funds received by the Company after the date hereof from the exercise of outstanding warrants, repay the Xxxxx Indebtedness in excess of the Xxxxx Repayment Amount provided that in no event, during the period that at least, in the aggregate, $500,000, of Notes are outstanding shall the Company repay Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx to the extent that the aggregate amount of indebtedness held by Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx (the “Xxxxx Indebtedness”) is less than $400,000.

8. Rule 144 Availability; Public Information. At all times during the period commencing on the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date and ending at such time that all of the Securities can be sold without the requirement to be in compliance with Rule 144(c) (1) and otherwise without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the availability of Rule 144 to the Investors with regard to the Underlying Securities, including compliance with Rule 144(c)(1). At any time during the period commencing from the six (6) month anniversary of the Closing Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, if the Company shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c) (a “Public Information Failure”) then, in addition to such Investor’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to a Investor, in cash, as 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 Purchase Price of such Investor’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 Investors to transfer the Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144. The payments to which a Investor shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 4.3(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) Trading Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Public Information Failure Payments is cured.

9. Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend each Investor, and its officers, directors, agents, affiliates, members, managers, control persons, and principal shareholders, against any claim, cost, expense, liability, obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon such Investor or any such person which results, arises out of or is based upon (i) any material misrepresentation by Company or breach of any representation or warranty by Company in this Agreement or in any exhibits or schedules attached hereto, or other agreement delivered pursuant hereto; or (ii) after any applicable notice and/or cure periods, any breach or default in performance by the Company of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by the Company hereunder, or any other agreement entered into by the Company and such Investor relating hereto. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Company be liable to such Investor (in the aggregate) for more than the Purchase Price paid by such Investor.

10. Participation Rights. Until the twelve month anniversary of the Closing Date, and with respect to the initial purchasers of Notes in the Offering, the Company will not, directly or indirectly, effect any Subsequent Placement (as defined below) unless the Company shall have first complied with this Section 10; provided, that the Company shall not be required to comply with this Section 10 during the six-month period immediately following the Closing Date, or the closing of any Subsequent Placement in which such Investor purchases securities, if such Subsequent Placement would be integrated with such prior offering by the principal market or exchange in which the Common Stock of the Company is then traded or pursuant to the 1933 Act or any other applicable shareholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any exchange or automated quotation system on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated.

10.1 At least one (1) Trading Day prior to any proposed or intended Subsequent Placement, the Company or its agent shall orally contact each Investor and ask whether such Investor is willing to agree to receive material non-public information (each such notice, a “Pre-Notice”), provided that neither the Company nor its agents shall provide any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to such Investor without the expressed written consent of such Investor to receive such material, non-public information. Upon the written request of such Investor no later than one (1) Trading Day after such Investor’s receipt of such Pre-Notice, and only upon a written request by such Investor, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1) Trading Day after such request, deliver to such Investor by facsimile an irrevocable written notice (the “Offer Notice”) of any proposed or intended issuance or sale or exchange (the “Offer”) of the securities being offered (the “Offered Securities”) in a Subsequent Placement within one (1) Trading Day of the determination of the terms of such Subsequent Placement, which Offer Notice shall (w) identify and describe the Offered Securities, (x) describe the price and other final terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Offered Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (y) identify the persons or entities (if known) to which or with which the Offered Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged and (z) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with such Investor (which offer being non-transferable to any successor to such Investor) a pro rata portion of at least 40% of the Offered Securities allocated among the Investors (a) based on such Investor’s pro rata portion of the aggregate original principal amount of the Notes purchased hereunder by all the Investors (the “Basic Amount”), and (b) if such Investor elects to purchase its Basic Amount, any additional portion of the Offered Securities attributable to the Basic Amounts of the Other Investors as such Investor shall indicate it will purchase or acquire should the Other Investors subscribe for less than their Basic Amounts (the “Undersubscription Amount”).

10.2 To accept an Offer, in whole or in part, each Investor must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the first (1st) full Trading Day after such Investor’s receipt of the Offer Notice (for purposes of this Section 10.2, receipt of the Offer Notice shall not be deemed to have occurred until such Investor shall have physically received such Offer Notice) (the “Offer Period”), setting forth the portion of such Investor’s Basic Amount that such Investor elects to purchase and, if such Investor shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription Amount, if any, that such Investor elects to purchase (in either case, the “Notice of Acceptance”). If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by such Investor and all Other Investors are less than the total of all of the Basic Amounts, then, if such Investor has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance, such Investor shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, that if the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceed the difference between the total of all the Basic Amounts and the Basic Amounts subscribed for (the “Available Undersubscription Amount”), if such Investor has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount, then such Investor shall be entitled to purchase only that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Basic Amount of such Investor bears to the total Basic Amounts of all Other Investors that have subscribed for Undersubscription Amounts, subject to rounding by the Company to the extent it deems reasonably necessary.

10.3 The Company shall have thirty (30) business days from the expiration of the Offer Period above to offer, issue, sell or exchange all or any part of such Offered Securities as to which a Notice of Acceptance has not been given by such Investor (the “Refused Securities”), but only to the offerees described in the Offer Notice (if so described therein) and only upon terms and conditions (including, without limitation, unit prices and interest rates) that are not more favorable to the acquiring Person or Persons or less favorable to the Company than those set forth in the Offer Notice.

10.4 In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Refused Securities (any such sale to be in the manner and on the terms specified in Section 10.3 above), then such Investor may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, reduce the number or amount of the Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less than the number or amount of the Offered Securities that such Investor elected to purchase pursuant to Section 10.2 above multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue, sell or exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or sold to such Investor pursuant to Section 10.3 above prior to such reduction) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the original amount of the Offered Securities. In the event that such Investor so elects to reduce the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced number or amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been offered to such Investor in accordance with Section 10.1 above.

10.5 Upon the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Refused Securities, each Investor shall acquire from the Company, and the Company shall issue to such Investor, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in such Investor’s Notice of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section 10.3 above if such Investor has so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer. The purchase by such Investor of any Offered Securities is subject in all cases to (i) the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company and such Investor of a purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such Investor and its respective counsel (the “Subsequent Placement Agreement”) and (ii) such Investor’s satisfaction, in its reasonable discretion, with the final terms and/or conditions that differ from those contained in the Offer Notice.

10.6 Any Offered Securities not acquired by each Investor or other Persons in accordance with this Section 10 may not be issued, sold or exchanged until they are again offered to such Investor under the procedures specified in this Agreement.

10.7 The restrictions contained in this Section 10 shall not apply (1) in connection with the issuance of any Excluded Securities (as defined below), (2) to the extent that counsel to the Company has advised that with respect to a Subsequent Placement of Offered Securities that are not being issued pursuant to a registration statement under the 1933 Act, the exercising of the participation right would result in the Company not being able to offer or sell the Offered Securities pursuant to any exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act, (3) in connection with an exchange of debt for equity pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) under the 1933 Act or (4) in connection with the issuance of securities pursuant to an equity line of credit facility or at-the-market offering.

10.8 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the rights granted to each Investor pursuant to this Section 10 shall not be transferrable to any other Person (other than affiliates of such Investor) without the prior written consent of the Company.

14.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any Other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. Each Investor has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in its review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. For reasons of administrative convenience only, each Investor and its respective counsel have chosen to communicate with the Company through Ellenoff Xxxxxxxx & Schole LLP (“EGS”). EGS does not represent any of the Investors and only represents Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx, LLC, the placement agent. The Company has elected to provide all Investors with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by any of the Investors.
