5.6 Restricted Securities. The Purchaser understands that the Securities are characterized as "restricted securities" under the U.S. federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the 1933 Act only in certain limited circumstances.
5.7 Legends. It is understood that, until registration for resale pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or until sales under Rule 144 are permitted, certificates evidencing the Securities may bear one or all of the following legends or legends substantially similar thereto:
(a) "The shares represented by this certificate may not be transferred without (i) the opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the corporation (if reasonably requested) that such transfer may lawfully be made without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 or qualification under applicable state securities laws; or (ii) such registration or qualification."
(b) If required by the authorities
of any state in connection with the issuance of sale of the Securities, the
legend required by such state authority.
Upon registration for resale pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or
upon Rule 144(k) under the 1933 Act becoming available, the Company shall promptly
cause certificates evidencing the Underlying Shares and Warrant Shares previously
issued to be replaced with certificates which do not bear such restrictive legends,
and all Underlying Shares and Warrant Shares subsequently issued shall not bear
such restrictive legends. If the Company does not promptly cause all such unlegended
certificates to be issued to the Purchasers hereunder (no later than 10 days
following any Purchaser's written request in any event), the Company shall pay
liquidated damages to the Purchasers equal to 2% per month (or part thereof)
based on the original Purchase Price of such Securities (with Underlying Shares
and Warrant Shares issued to be deemed to constitute Preferred Shares and Warrants
as if they were not converted and/or exercised).

7. Covenants and Agreements of the Company.
7.1 19.9% Cap; Rule 144.
(a) 19.9% Cap. In the event that at any time the Company would be obligated to issue an amount of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of, or in payment of dividends on, the Preferred Shares, or upon exercise of the Warrants, which, when aggregated with all shares of Common Stock issued to the Purchaser(s), would constitute a breach of the Company's obligations under the rules or regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Market as they apply to the Company, or any other principal securities exchange or market ("Principal Market") upon which the Common Stock is or becomes traded (the "Cap Regulations"), the Company shall not be obligated to issue any such shares of Common Stock to the extent such shares are in excess of the maximum permissible amount under such Cap Regulations ("Excess Shares"). In the event of any occurrence of Excess Shares, the Company shall pay to the Purchaser, in lieu of the Purchaser's right to receive such Excess Shares, an amount ("Excess Amount") equal to the number of Excess Shares multiplied by 107.5% of the closing bid price per share of Common Stock on the Principal Market immediately preceding the time of the existence of the Excess Shares. Any Excess Amounts payable by the Company hereunder shall be paid in twelve (12) equal consecutive monthly installments commencing on the first day of the full calendar month immediately following the occurrence of any Excess Shares. Only shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to this Agreement (including Underlying Shares and Warrant Shares) will be included in determining whether the limitation contained herein would be exceeded for purposes of this Section 7.1(a).
(b) Rule 144. The Company agrees to take the position that, for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144 for Underlying Shares issued upon conversion of, or in payment of dividends on, the Preferred Shares, the holding period of such Underlying Shares shall be tacked to the holding period of the Preferred Shares
7.2 Limitation on Transactions.
(a) Until the date of effectiveness of the Registration Statement as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement, without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of Preferred Shares (which consent may be withheld in such holders' discretion), the Company shall not issue or sell or agree to issue or sell any securities in a capital raising transaction prior to such date in excess of 350,000 shares of Common Stock in the aggregate for all such transactions (counting convertible, exercisable and exchangeable securities on an as-converted, as-exercised and as-exchanged basis without regard to any limitations or restrictions contained therein), unless such securities will not, and are not, registered for sale or resale under the 1934 until after the date which is six (6) months following the effective date of such Registration Statement.
(b) So long as any Preferred Shares remain outstanding, without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of Preferred Shares (which consent may be withheld in such holders' discretion), the Company shall not (i) issue or sell or agree to issue or sell any securities in a MFN Transaction, or (ii) issue or sell, or agree to issue or sell, any securities in a Variable Rate Transaction; provided however, that without such consent, the Company may issue or sell or agree to issue or sell for cash any securities in a Variable Rate Transaction or MFN Transaction so long as the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and/or agreed to be issued in the aggregate for all such transactions (determined as if all such securities as of their issuance are deemed fully converted, exercised and exchanged into Common Stock without regard to limitations or restrictions contained therein) represents less than seven percent (7%) of the total number of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the closing date of any such transaction.
(c) Subject to any consent or approval rights of the Purchasers hereunder, in the event the Company contemplates an offering of its equity or debt securities within six months of the date hereof, the Company agrees that, upon the reasonable request of the Purchasers, the Company shall first disclose the terms and conditions and other relevant facts of such proposed transaction to Nasdaq and seek to obtain from Nasdaq its assurance that such transaction will not be integrated with the offering which is the subject of this Agreement for purposes of the Nasdaq rules requiring shareholder approval of the issuance of 20% or more of an issuer's outstanding common stock. In the event that (i) the Company fails to seek such assurances, or (ii) the Company proceeds with such other transaction after not receiving a response from Nasdaq and such other transaction is integrated with this offering, then, at the election of a Purchaser, the Company shall redeem within five (5) days any or all Preferred Shares, as specified by such Purchaser, for the Redemption Consideration (as defined in the Certificate) for the Preferred Shares being redeemed.
7.3 Right of the Purchasers to Participate in Future Transactions.
(a) Until December 31, 2002, the Purchasers will have a right to participate in any sales of any of the Company's securities in a capital raising transaction on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7.3. During such period, the Company shall give seven (7) business days advance written notice to the Purchaser prior to any non-public offer or sale of any of the Company's equity securities or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities in a capital raising transaction by providing to the Purchasers a comprehensive term sheet containing all significant business terms of such a proposed transaction. The Purchasers shall have the right (pro rata in accordance with the Purchasers' participation in this offering, and together with such other persons or entities designated by any Purchaser which are affiliated with or, subject to the Company's reasonable consent, connected to, such Purchaser) to participate in up to 50% of such proposed transaction (or 75% of such proposed transaction if it is a Variable Rate Transaction or MFN Transaction) and to purchase such securities which are the subject of such a proposed transaction for the same consideration and on the same terms and conditions as contemplated for such third-party sale. The Purchaser(s)' rights hereunder must be exercised in writing by the Purchaser(s) within five (5) business days following receipt of the notice from the Company. If, subsequent to the Company giving notice to a Purchaser hereunder but prior to the Purchaser exercising its right to participate (or the expiration of the five-day period without response from the Purchaser or the rejection of such offer for such financing by the Purchaser(s)), the terms and conditions of the proposed third-party sale are changed in any material respect from that disclosed in the comprehensive term sheet provided to such Purchaser, the Company shall be required to provide a new notice to the Purchaser hereunder and the Purchasers shall have the right, which must be exercised within five (5) business days of such new notice, to exercise their rights to purchase the securities on such changed terms and conditions as provided hereunder. In the event the Purchasers do not exercise their rights hereunder, or affirmatively decline to engage in the proposed transaction with the Company, then the Company may proceed with such proposed transaction on the same terms and conditions as noticed to the Purchasers (assuming the Purchasers have consented to the transaction, if required, pursuant to Section 7.2 of this Agreement). The rights and obligations of this Section 7.3 shall in no way diminish the other rights of the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 7.
(b) Limitation on Right of First Refusal.
(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be acquired by any Purchaser pursuant to any capital raising transaction as described in subsection (a) above shall not exceed a number that, when added to the total number of shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned by such Purchaser (other than by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities (including the Preferred Shares and Warrants) that have limitations on the Purchaser's right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein (the "Excluded Shares")), together with all shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned (not counting such affiliate's Excluded Shares) by the Purchaser's "affiliates" (as defined Rule 144 of the 1933 Act) ("Aggregation Parties") that would be aggregated for purposes of determining whether a group under Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act, exists, would exceed 9.9% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Restricted Ownership Percentage"). Each holder shall have the right (x) at any time and from time to time to reduce its Restricted Ownership Percentage immediately upon notice to the Company and (y) at any time and from time to time, to increase its Restricted Ownership Percentage immediately in the event of the announcement as pending or planned of an event of:
(1) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation or other entity or person (whether or not the Company is the surviving corporation), or any other corporate reorganization or transaction or series of related transactions in which in excess of 50% of the Company's voting power is transferred through a merger, consolidation, tender offer or similar transaction,
(2) any person (as defined in Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act), together with its affiliates and associates (as such terms are defined in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act), beneficially owns or is deemed to beneficially own (as described in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act without regard to the 60-day exercise period) in excess of 50% of the Company's voting power,
(3) there is a replacement of more than one-half of the members of the Company's Board of Directors which is not approved by a majority of those individuals who are members of the Company's Board of Directors on the date thereof, or
(4) a sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, determined on a consolidated basis, in one or a series of related transactions.
(ii) The Purchaser covenants at all times on each day (each such day being referred to as a "Covenant Day") as follows: During the balance of such Covenant Day and the succeeding sixty-one (61) days (the balance of such Covenant Day and the succeeding 61 days being referred to as the "Covenant Period") such Purchaser will not acquire shares of Common Stock pursuant to any capital raising transaction as described in subsection (a) (including convertible securities which are convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for Common Stock within 61 days only if such securities do not contain the limitations on beneficial ownership similar to those contained herein) existing at the commencement of the Covenant Period to the extent the number of shares so acquired by such holder and its Aggregation Parties (ignoring all dispositions) would exceed:
(1) the Restricted Ownership
Percentage of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the
commencement of the Covenant Period,
minus
(2) the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Purchaser and its Aggregation Parties at the commencement of the Covenant Period.
A new and independent covenant
will be deemed to be given by the Purchaser as of each moment of each Covenant
Day. No covenant will terminate, diminish or modify any other covenant. The
Purchaser agrees to comply with each such covenant. This Section 7.3(b) controls
in the case of any conflict with any other provision of the Agreements.
The Company's obligation to issue securities under subsection (a) above which
would exceed such limits referred to in this Section 7.3(b) shall be suspended
to the extent necessary until such time, if any, as shares of Common Stock may
be issued in compliance with such restrictions.
7.4 Opinion of Counsel. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Company will deliver to the Purchasers the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Purchasers, addressing those legal matters set forth in Schedule 7.4 hereto.
7.5 Reservation of Common Stock issuable upon Exercise of Warrants. The Company hereby agrees at all times to reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of providing for the exercise of the Warrants, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time equal the number of shares sufficient to permit the full exercise of the Warrants in accordance with the terms of the Warrants. All calculations pursuant to this paragraph shall be made without regard to restrictions on beneficial ownership.
7.6 Reports. For so long as the Purchasers beneficially own any of the Securities, the Company will furnish to the Purchasers the following reports, each of which shall be provided to the Purchasers by air mail or reputable international courier (within one week of filing with the SEC, in the case of SEC filings):
(a) Securities Filings. Copies of (i) all notices, proxy statements, financial statements, reports and documents as the Company shall send or make available generally to its stockholders or to financial analysts, promptly after providing same to the stockholders (other than Form 10K's and Form 10Q's filed electronically via Xxxxx pursuant to Regulation S-T of the 0000 Xxx) and (ii) to the extent not filed as an "electronic filing" pursuant to Regulation S-T of the 1934 Act, all periodic and special reports, documents and registration statements (other than on Form S-8) which the Company furnishes or files, or any officer or director of the Company (in such person's capacity as such) furnishes or files with the SEC.
(b) Other Information. Such other information relating to the Company as from time to time may reasonably be requested by any Purchaser provided the Company produces such information in its ordinary course of business, and further provided that the Company, solely in its own discretion, determines that such information is not confidential in nature and disclosure to the Purchaser would not be harmful to the Company.
(c) Rule 144. The Company agrees to make publicly available on a timely basis the information necessary to enable Rule 144 under the 1933 Act to be available for resale.
7.7 Press Releases. Any press release or other publicity concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be submitted to the Purchasers for comment at least two (2) business days prior to issuance, unless the release is required to be issued within a shorter period of time by law or pursuant to the rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market or a national securities exchange. The Company shall issue a press release concerning the fact and material terms of this Agreement within one business day of the Closing.
7.8 No Conflicting Agreements. The Company will not take any action, enter into any agreement or make any commitment that would conflict or interfere in any material respect with the obligations to the Purchasers under the Agreements.
7.9 Insurance. For so long as any Purchaser beneficially owns any of the Securities, the Company shall, and shall cause each subsidiary to, have in full force and effect (a) insurance reasonably believed to be adequate on all assets and activities of a type customarily insured, covering property damage and loss of income by fire or other casualty, and (b) insurance reasonably believed to be adequate protection against all liabilities, claims and risks against which it is customary for companies similarly situated as the Company and the subsidiaries to insure.
7.10 Compliance with Laws. So long as the Purchasers beneficially own any Securities, the Company will use reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, orders and decrees of all governmental authorities, except to the extent non-compliance (in one instance or in the aggregate) would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
7.11 Listing of Underlying Shares and Related Matters. The Company hereby agrees, promptly following the Closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to take such action to cause the Underlying Shares and the Warrant Shares to be listed on the Nasdaq National Market as promptly as possible but no later than the effective date of the registration contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement. The Company further agrees that if the Company applies to have its Common Stock or other securities traded on any other principal stock exchange or market, it will include in such application the Underlying Shares and Warrant Shares and will take such other action as is necessary to cause such Common Stock to be so listed. For so long as any Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Company will take all action necessary to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market and will comply in all respects with the Company's reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of such exchange, as applicable, to ensure the continued eligibility for trading of the Underlying Shares and the Warrant Shares thereon. Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf, shall directly or indirectly make any offers or sales of any security or solicit any offers to buy any security which may cause the integration of the offering hereunder with any other offering of securities for purposes of determining the need to obtain stockholder approval of the transactions contemplated hereby under the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market.
7.12 Corporate Existence. So long as any Preferred Shares remain outstanding the Company shall maintain its corporate existence, except in the event of a merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, as long as the surviving or successor entity in such transaction (a) assumes the Company's obligations hereunder and under the agreements and instruments entered into in connection herewith, regardless of whether or not the Company would have had a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and available for issuance in order to fulfill its obligations hereunder and effect the conversion and exercise in full of all Preferred Shares and Warrants outstanding as of the date of such transaction (assuming conversion of Preferred Shares at the Market Price); (b) has no legal, contractual or other restrictions on its ability to perform the obligations of the Company hereunder and under the agreements and instruments entered into in connection herewith; and (c)(i) is a publicly traded corporation whose common stock and the shares of capital stock issuable upon conversion and exercise of the Preferred Shares and Warrants are (or would be upon issuance thereof) listed for trading on the Nasdaq National Market, the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, the New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange, or (ii) if not such a publicly traded corporation, then the buyer agrees that it will, at the election of the Purchasers and to the extent permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law, purchase such Purchasers' Securities at a price equal to the greater of (a) 120% of the Purchase Price of such Securities or (b) (1) for Preferred Shares or Common Stock, the fair market value of such Securities on an as-converted basis based on the Market Price at the time of such transaction or the redemption date, whichever is greater, and (2) for the Warrants, the fair market value of the underlying securities on an as-exercised basis based on the Market Price at the time of such transaction or the redemption date, whichever is greater, less the exercise price under such Warrants at such time.
