WHEREAS, the Company desires to sell and issue the Units to the Purchasers on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and the Purchasers desire to purchase the Units on the terms and conditions set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual promises, representations, warranties, and covenants hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. AGREEMENT TO SELL AND PURCHASE.
1.1 Authorization of Shares and Warrants. On or prior to the Closing (as defined in Section 2 below), the Company shall have authorized (a) the sale and issuance to the Purchasers of an aggregate of 8,709,678 shares of its Series E Stock pursuant to this Agreement and the issuance to the Purchasers of 196,206 shares of Series E Stock pursuant to the Exchange Agreement (together, the “Shares”), (b) the sale and issuance to the Purchasers of the Warrants associated with the Shares that comprise the Units, and (c) the issuance of such shares of Series E Stock and Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of the Shares and exercise of the Warrants (together, the “Conversion Shares”). The Shares and the Conversion Shares shall have the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions set forth in the Tenth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Certificate of Incorporation”).
1.2 Sale and Purchase. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Company hereby agrees to issue and sell to each Purchaser, severally and not jointly, and each
- 1 -
Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Company, severally and not jointly, the number of Units set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name on Exhibit A at a purchase price of $3.10 per Unit (the “Series E Price”). The Company and the Purchasers, having adverse interests and as a result of arm’s length bargaining, agree that (i) neither the Purchasers nor any of their affiliates have rendered or have agreed to render any services to the Company in connection with this Agreement or the issuance of the Units, and (ii) the Warrants are not being issued as compensation. The Company and the Purchasers agree that the fair market value of the Preferred Warrant purchased by each Purchaser as part of the Units they are purchasing is equal to $0.001 multiplied by the number of shares of Series E Stock for which such Preferred Warrant is initially exercisable, and to file all federal, state, local and foreign tax returns in a manner consistent with such valuation. The Company and the Purchasers agree that the fair market value of the Contingent Warrants which will be purchased by each Purchaser as part of the Units they are purchasing is equal to $0.0001 multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which such Contingent Warrant is exercisable at the time of purchase, and to file all federal, state, local and foreign tax returns in a manner consistent with such valuation. The number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Contingent Warrants shall be determined based on the time at which the Company consummates its initial underwritten public offering (“IPO”), all as more specifically set forth on Schedule 1.2 hereto.
2. CLOSING.
2.1 Closing. The sale and purchase of the Units under this Agreement shall take place at a closing (the “Closing”) to be held at the offices of Xxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP, 0000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, X.X., Xxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the date hereof (the “Closing Date”). At the Closing, the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser listed on Exhibit A (i) such number of Shares to be purchased by such Purchaser as set forth on Exhibit A opposite such Purchaser’s name, (ii) a Preferred Warrant exercisable for such number of shares of Series E Stock as set forth on Exhibit A opposite such Purchaser’s name, and (iii) a Contingent Warrant, by delivery to each Purchaser of a certificate representing the number of Shares to be purchased as set forth on Exhibit A, a Preferred Warrant to acquire such number of shares of Series E Stock as set forth on Exhibit A, and a Contingent Warrant against payment of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer made payable to the order of the Company (it being acknowledged by the Company that the payment from the Purchasers for the Units may be delayed by up to ten calendar days following the Closing Date (such date of payment, the “Payment Date”)). If at the Closing any of the applicable conditions specified in Section 5.1 shall not have been fulfilled, each Purchaser shall, at its election, be relieved of all of its obligations under this Agreement without thereby waiving any other rights it may have by reason of such failure or such non-fulfillment.

(c) The Company is not aware that any of its employees is obligated under any contract (including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or other agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative agency, that would interfere with their duties to, or use of best efforts to promote the interests of, the Company or that would conflict with the Company’s business as now conducted or presently
- 9 -
proposed to be conducted. Neither the execution nor delivery of this Agreement or the Related Agreements, nor the carrying on of the Company’s business by the employees of the Company, nor the conduct of the Company’s business as now conducted or as presently proposed, will, to the Company’s knowledge, conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or instrument under which any employee is now obligated.

The execution, delivery, and performance of and compliance with this Agreement, and the Related Agreements, and the issuance and sale of the Units pursuant hereto and the Exchange Agreements and the Conversion Shares pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation and the Warrants, will not, with or without the passage of time or giving of notice, result in any such violation, or be in conflict with or constitute a default under any such material term, or result in the creation of any mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or charge upon any of the properties or assets of the Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to the Company, its business or operations or any of its assets or properties.
(b) The Company has avoided every condition, and has not performed any act, the occurrence of which would result in the Company’s loss of any right granted under any license, distribution agreement or other agreement to which the Company is a party if such loss would have a Material Adverse Effect.
3.13 Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or to the Company’s knowledge currently threatened against the Company or its officers that questions the validity of this Agreement, or the Related Agreements or the right of the Company to enter into any of such agreements, or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or which might have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect or result in a change in the current equity ownership of the Company, nor is the Company aware that there is any basis for any of the foregoing. The foregoing includes, without limitation, actions, suits, proceedings or investigations pending or threatened (or any basis therefor known
- 10 -
to the Company) involving the prior employment of any of the Company’s employees, their use in connection with the Company’s business of any information or techniques allegedly proprietary to any of their former employers, or their obligations under any agreements with prior employers. The Company is not a party or subject to the provisions of any order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any court or government agency or instrumentality. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation by the Company currently pending or which the Company intends to initiate.
3.14 Tax Returns and Payments. The Company has paid all federal, state, local and foreign taxes (including, without limitation, income, profit, franchise, sales, use, real property, personal property, ad valorem, excise, employment, social security and wage withholding taxes) and installments of estimated taxes, assessments, deficiencies, levies, imports, duties, license fees, registration fees, withholdings, or other similar charges of every kind, character or description imposed by any governmental or quasi-governmental authorities, and any interest, penalties or additions to tax imposed thereon or in connection therewith (collectively, “Taxes”) due as of the Closing Date. The Company has timely filed or has obtained presently effective extensions with respect to all Federal, state, county, local and foreign tax returns (collectively, “Tax Returns”) and reports (including information returns and reports) that the Company is required to file. The Tax Returns and reports are true and correct and all taxes shown thereon to be due have been timely paid. No penalties or other charges are or will become due with respect to any such Tax Returns as the result of the late filing thereof. The Company has either paid or established in the Financial Statements adequate reserves for the payment of all such Taxes due or claimed to be due by any taxing authority in connection with any such Tax Returns. None of the Company’s federal income tax returns have been audited by the Internal Revenue Service, none of its state income or franchise tax or sales or use tax returns has ever been audited by governmental authorities, and no controversy with respect to taxes of any type is pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened. The Company has withheld or collected from each payment made to its employees the amount of all taxes required to be withheld or collected therefrom (including, but not limited to, federal income taxes and Federal Insurance Contribution Act taxes) and has paid all such amounts to the appropriate taxing authorities when due.
