3.1 Organization and Qualification. Each of the Lightning Parties is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of its incorporation and is qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which qualification is required, except where failure to so qualify would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as herein defined).

3.2 Authority. The Lightning Parties have all requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

Except as disclosed in the Securities Filings, LGI does not have outstanding any options to purchase, or any preemptive rights or other rights to subscribe for or to purchase, any securities or obligations convertible into, or any contracts or commitments to issue or sell, shares of its capital stock or any such options, rights, convertible securities or obligations.

No preemptive rights or other rights to subscribe for or purchase exist with respect to the issuance and sale of the Shares by LGI pursuant to this Agreement.
3.6 Securities Filings.
(a) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6(a) of the Disclosure Schedules, LGI has filed all Securities Filings required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act, including pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) thereof, since January 1, 2010 on a timely basis or has received a valid extension of such time of filing and has filed any such report prior to the expiration of any such extension. As of their respective dates, the Securities Filings filed with the SEC complied or will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder, and none of the SEC Reports, when filed by LGI, contained or will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
(b) The financial statements of LGI included in the Securities Filings comply and will comply as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing. Such financial statements have been and will have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (“GAAP”), except as may be otherwise specified in such financial statements, the notes thereto and except that unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP or may be condensed or summary statements, and fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of LGI and its consolidated subsidiaries as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, year-end audit adjustments.
3.7 Private Placement. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Purchaser set forth in Section 4 hereof, the offer and issuance of the Shares to Purchaser as contemplated by this Agreement is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
3.8 Form D; Blue Sky Filings. LGI agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Shares as required under Regulation D promulgated by the SEC and to provide a copy thereof, promptly upon request of Purchaser. LGI shall take such action as LGI shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the Shares for, sale to 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.
4
3.9 Form S-3 Eligibility. LGI meets the eligibility requirements set forth in the general instructions to Form S-3 applicable to “Transactions Involving Secondary Offerings.”
4. Representations and Warranties of Purchaser. Purchaser represents and warrants to the Lightning Parties that:
4.1 Authority. Purchaser has all the power and requisite corporate authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of Purchaser. Purchaser has duly executed and delivered this Agreement and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Lightning Parties, this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Purchaser, enforceable against Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy laws or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity.
4.2 Investment. Purchaser is acquiring the Shares pursuant to this Agreement solely for investment purposes, for Purchaser’s own account and not with a view to resale or distribution. Purchaser understands that (a) the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, (b) LGI is under no obligation to register the LGI Nonvoting Stock except as provided herein, and (c) the LGI Nonvoting Stock cannot be transferred, resold or otherwise disposed of by Purchaser without such registration unless LGI receives an opinion of Purchaser’s counsel, reasonably acceptable to LGI, stating that such transfer, resale or other disposition is exempt from such registration requirements, or other evidence satisfactory to LGI that demonstrates the applicability of such exemption.
4.3 Investment Qualifications. Purchaser understands that no public market exists for LGI Nonvoting Stock, it is uncertain whether a public market will ever exist for LGI Nonvoting Stock and LGI Nonvoting Stock carries no voting rights over the Common Stock. Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and familiarity with the Lightning Parties as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment. Purchaser has been given the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the Lightning Parties concerning the terms and conditions of, and other matters pertaining to, the issuance and delivery of the Shares and the related investment risks, and Purchaser has had access to such financial and other information as it considered necessary or appropriate to make a decision to convert the Note to the Shares, and Purchaser has availed itself of this opportunity to the full extent desired. Purchaser is an “accredited investor,” as defined in Regulation D promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act.
4.4 Understanding of Investment Risks. Purchaser acknowledges that an investment in LGI Nonvoting Stock involves highly speculative risks. Purchaser has carefully reviewed such risk factors and considered such factors in relation to its own investment activities and financial position, and has the ability to accept highly speculative risks, which could include the loss of its entire investment.
5
5. Survival. The representations and warranties in Section 3 and Section 4 hereof shall survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect thereafter.
6. Post-Closing Cooperation. From and after the Closing, the Parties shall cooperate with each other and take such actions as may be reasonably requested and are consistent with the provisions of this Agreement to obtain for the requesting Party the benefits of the transactions contemplated hereby.
7. Indemnification.
7.1 Indemnification of Purchaser Indemnified Persons. LGI shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser and each of its affiliates, partners, directors, officers, and employees (each, a “Purchaser Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all demands, claims, actions or causes of action, assessments, losses, damages, liabilities, interest and penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and disbursements incurred in connection therewith and in seeking indemnification therefor, and any amounts or expenses required to be paid or incurred in connection with any action, suit, proceeding, claim, appeal, demand, assessment or judgment) (collectively, “Losses”), suffered or incurred by or imposed upon any Purchaser Indemnified Person as a result of any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of LGI contained in this Agreement.
7.2 Indemnification of LGI Indemnified Persons. Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Lightning Parties and each of their respective directors, officers, and employees (each an “LGI Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all Losses suffered or incurred by or imposed upon any LGI Indemnified Person as a result of any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Purchaser contained in this Agreement.
