Act, (y) comply with all reporting requirements that are applicable to an issuer
with a class of shares registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the 1934
Act, as applicable, and (z) comply with all requirements related to any
registration statement filed pursuant to this Agreement. The Company will use
its best efforts not to take any action or file any document (whether or not
permitted by the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act or the rules thereunder) to terminate
or suspend such registration or to terminate or suspend its reporting and filing
obligations under said acts until two (2) years after the Closing Date. Until
the earlier of the resale of the Common Stock and the Warrant Shares by each
Subscriber or at least two (2) years after the Warrants have been exercised, the
Company will use its best efforts to continue the listing or quotation of the
Common Stock on the Principal Market or other market with the reasonable consent
of Subscribers holding a majority of the Shares and Warrant Shares, and will
comply in all respects with the Company's reporting, filing and other
obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Principal Market. The Company
agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Securities if required under
Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to each Subscriber promptly after
such filing.
(e) USE OF PROCEEDS. The Company undertakes to use the
proceeds of the Subscribers' funds for the purposes set forth on SCHEDULE 8(E)
hereto. A deviation from the use of proceeds set forth on SCHEDULE 8(E) of more
than 10% per item or more than 20% in the aggregate shall be deemed a material
breach of the Company's obligations hereunder. Except as set forth on SCHEDULE
8(E), the Purchase Price may not and will not be used for accrued and unpaid
officer and director salaries,
10
payment of financing related debt, redemption of outstanding redeemable notes or
equity instruments of the Company nor non-trade obligations outstanding on the
Closing Date.
(f) RESERVATION. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company
undertakes to reserve, PRO RATA, on behalf of each Subscriber and holder of a
Warrant, from its authorized but unissued common stock, a number of common
shares equal to the amount of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the A
Warrants. Failure to have sufficient shares reserved pursuant to this Section
8(f) for three (3) consecutive business days or ten (10) days in the aggregate
shall be a material default of the Company's obligations under this Agreement.
(g) TAXES. From the date of this Agreement and until the
sooner of (i) two (2) years after the Closing Date, or (ii) until all the Shares
and Warrant Shares have been resold or transferred by all the Subscribers
pursuant to the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 144, without regard
to volume limitations, the Company will promptly pay and discharge, or cause to
be paid and discharged, when due and payable, all lawful taxes, assessments and
governmental charges or levies imposed upon the income, profits, property or
business of the Company; provided, however, that any such tax, assessment,
charge or levy need not be paid if the validity thereof shall currently be
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and if the Company shall have
set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto, and provided,
further, that the Company will pay all such taxes, assessments, charges or
levies forthwith upon the commencement of proceedings to foreclose any lien
which may have attached as security therefore.
(h) INSURANCE. From the date of this Agreement and until the
sooner of (i) two (2) years after the Closing Date, or (ii) until all the Shares
and Warrant Shares have been resold or transferred by all the Subscribers
pursuant to the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 144, without regard
to volume limitations, the Company will keep its assets which are of an
insurable character insured by financially sound and reputable insurers against
loss or damage by fire, explosion and other risks customarily insured against by
companies in the Company's line of business, in amounts sufficient to prevent
the Company from becoming a co-insurer and not in any event less than one
hundred percent (100%) of the insurable value of the property insured; and the
Company will maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance
against other hazards and risks and liability to persons and property to the
extent and in the manner customary for companies in similar businesses similarly
situated and to the extent available on commercially reasonable terms.
(i) BOOKS AND RECORDS. From the date of this Agreement and
until the sooner of (i) two (2) years after the Closing Date, or (ii) until all
the Shares and Warrant Shares have been resold or transferred by all the
Subscribers pursuant to the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 144,
without regard to volume limitations, the Company will keep true records and
books of account in which full, true and correct entries will be made of all
dealings or transactions in relation to its business and affairs in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.
(j) GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITIES. From the date of this Agreement
and until the sooner of (i) two (2) years after the Closing Date, or (ii) until
all the Shares and Warrant Shares have been resold or transferred by all the
Subscribers pursuant to the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 144,
without regard to volume limitations, the Company shall duly observe and conform
in all material respects to all valid requirements of governmental authorities
relating to the conduct of its business or to its properties or assets.
(k) INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. From the date of this Agreement and
until the sooner of (i) two (2) years after the Closing Date, or (ii) until all
the Shares and Warrant Shares have been resold or transferred by all the
Subscribers pursuant to the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 144,
11
without regard to volume limitations, the Company shall maintain in full force
and effect its corporate existence, rights and franchises and all licenses and
other rights to use intellectual property owned or possessed by it and
reasonably deemed to be necessary to the conduct of its business.
(l) PROPERTIES. From the date of this Agreement and until the
sooner of (i) two (2) years after the Closing Date, or (ii) until all the Shares
and Warrant Shares have been resold or transferred by all the Subscribers
pursuant to the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 144, without regard
to volume limitation, the Company will keep its properties in good repair,
working order and condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and from time to
time make all necessary and proper repairs, renewals, replacements, additions
and improvements thereto; and the Company will at all times comply with each
provision of all leases to which it is a party or under which it occupies
property if the breach of such provision could reasonably be expected to have a
material adverse effect.
(m) CONFIDENTIALITY/PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT. From the date of this
Agreement and until the sooner of (i) two (2) years after the Closing Date, or
(ii) until all the Shares and Warrant Shares have been resold or transferred by
all the Subscribers pursuant to the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule
144, without regard to volume limitations, the Company agrees that except in
connection with a Form 8-K or the Registration Statement, it will not disclose
publicly or privately the identity of the Subscribers unless expressly agreed to
in writing by a Subscriber or only to the extent required by law and then only
upon ten days prior notice to Subscriber. In any event and subject to the
foregoing, the Company undertakes to file a Form 8-K or make a public
announcement describing the Offering not later than the first trading day
following the Closing Date. In the Form 8-K or public announcement, the Company
will specifically disclose the amount of common stock outstanding immediately
after the Closing. A form of the public announcement or Form 8-K is annexed
hereto as EXHIBIT F.
(n) FURTHER REGISTRATION STATEMENTS. Except for a registration
statement filed on behalf of the Subscribers pursuant to Section 10 of this
Agreement, the Company will not file any registration statements, including but
not limited to Form S-8, with the Commission or with state regulatory
authorities without the consent of the Subscriber until sixty (60) days after
the actual effective date of the registration statement described in Section
10.1(iv) of this Agreement ("ACTUAL EFFECTIVE DATE") during which such
Registration Statement shall be current and available for use in connection with
the public resale of the Shares and Warrant Shares ("EXCLUSION PERIOD").
(o) BLACKOUT. The Company undertakes and covenants that until
the first to occur of (i) the end of the Exclusion Period, or (ii) until all the
Shares and Warrant Shares have been resold pursuant to such registration
statement, the Company will not enter into any acquisition, merger, exchange or
sale or other transaction that could have the effect of delaying the
effectiveness of any pending registration statement or causing an already
effective registration statement to no longer be effective or current.
(p) NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION. The Company covenants and agrees
that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf will provide any
Subscriber or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company
believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto such
Subscriber shall have agreed in writing to receive such information. The Company
understands and confirms that each Subscriber shall be relying on the foregoing
representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.
9. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY AND SUBSCRIBER REGARDING
INDEMNIFICATION.
12
(a) The Company agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse
and defend the Subscribers, the Subscribers' officers, directors, agents,
affiliates, 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 the Subscriber or any such
person which results, arises out of or is based upon (i) any material
misrepresentation by Company or breach of any warranty by Company in any of the
Transaction Documents; 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 under any Transaction Documents. This
indemnification is in addition to the indemnifications contained in Section 11
of this Agreement.
(b) Each Subscriber agrees to indemnify, hold harmless,
reimburse and defend the Company and each of the Company's officers, directors,
agents, affiliates, control persons against any claim, cost, expense, liability,
obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature,
incurred by or imposed upon the Company or any such person which results, arises
out of or is based upon (i) any material misrepresentation by such Subscriber 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 such Subscriber of any
covenant or undertaking to be performed by such Subscriber hereunder, or any
other agreement entered into by the Company and Subscribers, relating hereto.
(c) In no event shall the liability of any Subscriber or
permitted successor hereunder or under any other agreement delivered in
connection herewith be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net
proceeds actually received by such Subscriber upon the sale of Registrable
Securities (as defined herein).
(d) The procedures set forth in Section 10.6 shall apply to
the indemnifications set forth in Sections 9(a) and 9(b) above.
10.1. REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The Company hereby grants the following
registration rights to holders of the Securities.
(i) On one occasion, for a period commencing ninety-one (91)
days after the Closing Date, but not later than two (2) years after the Closing
Date ("REQUEST DATE"), upon a written request therefor from any record holder or
holders of more than 50% of the Shares and Warrant Shares actually issued upon
exercise of the Warrants, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission
a registration statement under the 1933 Act registering the Shares and Warrant
Shares including Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Finder's Warrants
(collectively "REGISTRABLE SECURITIES") which are the subject of such request
for unrestricted public resale by the holder thereof. For purposes of Sections
10.1(i) and 10.1(ii), Registrable Securities shall not include Securities which
are registered for resale in an effective registration statement or included for
registration in a pending registration statement, or which have been issued
without further transfer restrictions after a sale or transfer pursuant to Rule
144 under the 1933 Act. Upon the receipt of such request, the Company shall
promptly give written notice to all other record holders of the Registrable
Securities that such registration statement is to be filed and shall include in
such registration statement Registrable Securities for which it has received
written requests within ten (10) days after the Company gives such written
notice. Such other requesting record holders shall be deemed to have exercised
their demand registration right under this Section 10.1(i).
(ii) If the Company at any time proposes to register any of
its securities under the 1933 Act for sale to the public, whether for its own
account or for the account of other security holders or both, except with
respect to registration statements on Forms X-0, X-0 or another form not
available for
13
registering the Registrable Securities for sale to the public, provided the
Registrable Securities are not otherwise registered for resale by the
Subscribers or Holder pursuant to an effective registration statement, each such
time it will give at least fifteen (15) days' prior written notice to the record
holder of the Registrable Securities of its intention so to do. Upon the written
request of the holder, received by the Company within ten (10) days after the
giving of any such notice by the Company, to register any of the Registrable
Securities not previously registered, the Company will cause such Registrable
Securities as to which registration shall have been so requested to be included
with the securities to be covered by the registration statement proposed to be
filed by the Company, all to the extent required to permit the sale or other
disposition of the Registrable Securities so registered by the holder of such
Registrable Securities (the "SELLER" or "SELLERS"). In the event that any
registration pursuant to this Section 10.1(ii) shall be, in whole or in part, an
underwritten public offering of common stock of the Company, the number of
shares of Registrable Securities to be included in such an underwriting may be
reduced by the managing underwriter if and to the extent that the Company and
the underwriter shall reasonably be of the opinion that such inclusion would
adversely affect the marketing of the securities to be sold by the Company
therein; provided, however, that the Company shall notify the Seller in writing
of any such reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, or Section 10.4
hereof, the Company may withdraw or delay or suffer a delay of any registration
statement referred to in this Section 10.1(ii) without thereby incurring any
liability to the Seller.
(iii) If, at the time any written request for registration is
received by the Company pursuant to Section 10.1(i), the Company has determined
to proceed with the actual preparation and filing of a registration statement
under the 1933 Act in connection with the proposed offer and sale for cash of
any of its securities for the Company's own account and the Company actually
does file such other registration statement, such written request shall be
deemed to have been given pursuant to Section 10.1(ii) rather than Section
10.1(i), and the rights of the holders of Registrable Securities covered by such
written request shall be governed by Section 10.1(ii).
(iv) The Company shall file with the Commission not later than
thirty (30) days after the Closing Date (the "FILING DATE"), and cause to be
declared effective within ninety (90) days after the Filing Date (the "EFFECTIVE
DATE"), a Form SB-2 registration statement (the "REGISTRATION STATEMENT") (or
such other form that it is eligible to use) in order to register the Registrable
Securities for resale and distribution under the 1933 Act. The Company will
register not less than a number of shares of common stock in the aforedescribed
registration statement that is equal to all of the Shares and Warrant Shares
issuable pursuant to this Agreement. The Registrable Securities shall be
reserved and set aside exclusively for the benefit of each Subscriber and
Warrant holder, PRO RATA, and not issued, employed or reserved for anyone other
than each such Subscriber and Warrant holder. The Registration Statement will
immediately be amended or additional registration statements will be immediately
filed by the Company as necessary to register additional shares of Common Stock
to allow the public resale of all Common Stock included in and issuable by
virtue of the Registrable Securities. Without the written consent of the
Subscriber, no securities of the Company other than the Registrable Securities
will be included in the Registration Statement.
10.2. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. If and whenever the Company is
required by the provisions of Section 10.1(i), 10.1(ii), or (iv) to effect the
registration of any Registrable Securities under the 1933 Act, the Company will,
as expeditiously as possible:
(a) subject to the timelines provided in this Agreement,
prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement required by
Section 10, with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause
such registration statement to become and remain effective for the period of the
distribution contemplated thereby (as herein provided), and promptly provide to
the holders of the
14
Registrable Securities copies of all filings and Commission letters of comment
and notify Subscribers and Grushko + Xxxxxxx, P.C. (by telecopier and by email
to XXXXXXXXX@XXX.XXX) within two (2) hours of (i) notice that the Commission has
no comments or no further comments on the Registration Statement, (ii) request
by the Company of acceleration of effectiveness of any registration statement
which includes Registrable Securities, and (iii) the declaration of
effectiveness of the registration statement;
(b) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective
until such registration statement has been effective for a period of two (2)
years, and comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the
disposition of all of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration
statement in accordance with the Sellers' intended method of disposition set
forth in such registration statement for such period;
(c) furnish to the Sellers, at the Company's expense, such
number of copies of the registration statement and the prospectus included
therein (including each preliminary prospectus) as such persons reasonably may
request in order to facilitate the public sale or their disposition of the
securities covered by such registration statement;
(d) use its best efforts to register or qualify the Sellers'
Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under the
securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions as the Sellers shall request
in writing, provided, however, that the Company shall not for any such purpose
be required to qualify generally to transact business as a foreign corporation
in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified or to consent to general
service of process in any such jurisdiction;
(e) if applicable, list the Registrable Securities covered by
such registration statement with any securities exchange on which the Common
Stock of the Company is then listed;
(f) immediately notify the Sellers when a prospectus relating
thereto is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, of the happening of any
event of which the Company has knowledge as a result of which the prospectus
contained in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in
light of the circumstances then existing; and
(g) provided same would not be in violation of the provision
of Regulation FD under the 1934 Act, make available for inspection by the
Sellers, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Seller or
underwriter, all publicly available, non-confidential financial and other
records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause
the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all publicly
available, non-confidential information reasonably requested by the seller,
attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement.
10.3. PROVISION OF DOCUMENTS. In connection with each registration
described in this Section 10, each Subscriber will furnish to the Company in
writing such information and representation letters with respect to itself and
the proposed distribution by it as reasonably shall be necessary in order to
assure compliance with federal and applicable state securities laws.
10.4. NON-REGISTRATION EVENTS. The Company and the Subscribers agree
that the Sellers will suffer damages if the Registration Statement is not filed
by the Filing Date and not declared effective by the Commission by the Effective
Date, and any registration statement required under Section 10.1(i) or 10.1(ii)
is not filed within 60 days after written request and declared effective by the
Commission within 120 days after such request, and maintained in the manner and
within the time periods contemplated by Section 10 hereof, and it would not be
feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision.
15
Accordingly, if (i) the Registration Statement is not filed on or before the
Filing Date, (ii) if the Registration Statement is not declared effective on or
before the Effective Date, (iii) if the Registration Statement is not declared
effective within three (3) business days of receipt by the Company of a written
or oral communication from the Commission that the Registration Statement will
not be reviewed or that the Commission has no further comments, (iv) if the
registration statement described in Sections 10.1(i) or 10.1(ii) is not filed
within 60 days after such written request, or is not declared effective within
120 days after such written request, or (v) any registration statement described
in Sections 10.1(i), 10.1(ii) or 10.1(iv) is filed and declared effective but
shall thereafter cease to be effective (without being succeeded within ten (10)
business days by an effective replacement or amended registration statement) for
a period of time which shall exceed 30 days in the aggregate per year (defined
as a period of 365 days commencing on the date the Registration Statement is
declared effective) or more than 20 consecutive days (each such event referred
to in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of this Section 10.4 is referred to
herein as a "NON-REGISTRATION EVENT"), then for the first sixty (60) days of the
pendency of such Non-Registration Event, the Company shall deliver to the holder
of Registrable Securities, as Liquidated Damages, an amount equal to one and
one-half percent (1.5%) for each thirty (30) days or part thereof and
thereafter, two percent (2%) for each thirty (30) days of part thereof of the
Purchase Price of the Shares and Warrant Shares owned of record by such holder
as of and during the pendency of such Non-Registration Event which are subject
to such Non-Registration Event. Liquidated Damages otherwise payable in
connection with an Effective Date related Non-Registration Event as described in
Section 10.4(ii) are deemed waived if the Actual Effective Date occurs within
thirty (30) days from the Effective Date. The Company must pay the Liquidated
Damages in cash within ten (10) days after the end of each thirty (30) day
period or shorter part thereof for which Liquidated Damages are payable. In the
event a Registration Statement is filed by the Filing Date but is withdrawn
prior to being declared effective by the Commission, then such Registration
Statement will be deemed to have not been filed.
10.5. EXPENSES. All expenses incurred by the Company in complying
with Section 10, including, without limitation, all registration and filing
fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and independent
public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including reasonable
counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or
"blue sky" laws, fees of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.,
transfer taxes, fees of transfer agents and registrars and costs of insurance)
are called "REGISTRATION EXPENSES." All underwriting discounts and selling
commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities, including any fees
and disbursements of any additional counsel to the Seller, are called "SELLING
Expenses." The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with the
registration statement under Section 10. Selling Expenses in connection with
each registration statement under Section 10 shall be borne by the Seller and
may be apportioned among the Sellers in proportion to the number of shares sold
by the Seller relative to the number of shares sold under such registration
statement or as all Sellers thereunder may agree. Additionally, the parties
agree that each will be responsible for their respective legal fees in
connection with this transaction.
10.6. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.
(a) In the event of a registration of any Registrable
Securities under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 10, the Company will, to the
extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Seller, each officer of
the Seller, each director of the Seller, each underwriter of such Registrable
Securities thereunder and each other person, if any, who controls such Seller or
underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against any losses, claims,
damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Seller, or such
underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act or
otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement
under which such Registrable Securities was registered under the 1933 Act
pursuant
16
to Section 10, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein,
or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in
light of the circumstances when made, and will subject to the provisions of
Section 10.6(c) reimburse the Seller, each such underwriter and each such
controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them
in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to
the Seller to the extent that any such damages arise out of or are based upon an
untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus if (i) the
Seller failed to send or deliver a copy of the final prospectus delivered by the
Company to the Seller with or prior to the delivery of written confirmation of
the sale by the Seller to the person asserting the claim from which such damages
arise, (ii) the final prospectus would have corrected such untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or such omission or alleged omission, or (iii) to the
extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based
upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission so made in conformity with information furnished by any such Seller, or
any such controlling person in writing specifically for use in such registration
statement or prospectus.
(b) In the event of a registration of any of the Registrable
Securities under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 10, each Seller severally but
not jointly will, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless
the Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the
meaning of the 1933 Act, each officer of the Company who signs the registration
statement, each director of the Company, each underwriter and each person who
controls any underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against all losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such
officer, director, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under
the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in
the registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were
registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 10, any preliminary prospectus
or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof,
or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and each such
officer, director, underwriter and controlling person for any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or
defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, provided, however,
that the Seller will be liable hereunder in any such case if and only to the
extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based
upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information pertaining to
such Seller, as such, furnished in writing to the Company by such Seller
specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus, and provided,
further, however, that the liability of the Seller hereunder shall be limited to
the net proceeds actually received by the Seller from the sale of Registrable
Securities covered by such registration statement.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder
of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder,
notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify
the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have
to such indemnified party other than under this Section 10.6(c) and shall only
relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party under
this Section 10.6(c), except and only if and to the extent the indemnifying
party is prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action shall be brought
against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in
and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof
with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice from
17
the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume
and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to
such indemnified party under this Section 10.6(c) for any legal expenses
subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense
thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel
so selected, provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action
include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the
indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable
defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those
available to the indemnifying party or if the interests of the indemnified party
reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying
party, the indemnified parties, as a group, shall have the right to select one
separate counsel and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to participate
in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such
separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be
reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred.
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in
the event of joint liability under the 1933 Act in any case in which either (i)
a Seller, or any controlling person of a Seller, makes a claim for
indemnification pursuant to this Section 10.6 but it is judicially determined
(by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction
and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal)
that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the
fact that this Section 10.6 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii)
contribution under the 1933 Act may be required on the part of the Seller or
controlling person of the Seller in circumstances for which indemnification is
not provided under this Section 10.6; then, and in each such case, the Company
and the Seller will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or
liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in
such proportion so that the Seller is responsible only for the portion
represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its securities
offered by the registration statement bears to the public offering price of all
securities offered by such registration statement, provided, however, that, in
any such case, (y) the Seller will not be required to contribute any amount in
excess of the public offering price of all such securities offered by it
pursuant to such registration statement; and (z) no person or entity guilty of
fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the 0000
Xxx) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
10.7. DELIVERY OF UNLEGENDED SHARES.
(a) Within three (3) business days (such third (3rd) business
day, the "UNLEGENDED SHARES DELIVERY Date") after the business day on which the
Company has received (i) a notice that Registrable Securities have been sold
either pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144 under the 1933 Act,
(ii) a representation that the prospectus delivery requirements, or the
requirements of Rule 144, as applicable, have been satisfied, and (iii) the
original share certificates representing the shares of Common Stock that have
been sold, and (iv) in the case of sales under Rule 144, customary
representation letters of the Subscriber and/or Subscriber's broker regarding
compliance with the requirements of Rule 144, the Company at its expense, (y)
shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver,
to its transfer agent (with copies to Subscriber) an appropriate instruction and
opinion of such counsel, directing the delivery of shares of Common Stock
without any legends including the legends set forth in Sections 4(e) and 4(f)
above, issuable pursuant to any effective and current Registration Statement
described in Section 10 of this Agreement or pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933
Act (the "UNLEGENDED SHARES"); and (z) cause the transmission of the
certificates representing the Unlegended Shares together with a legended
certificate representing the balance of the unsold shares of Common Stock, if
any, to the Subscriber at the address specified in the notice of sale, via
express courier, by electronic transfer or otherwise on or before the Unlegended
Shares Delivery Date. Transfer fees shall be the responsibility of the Seller.
18
(b) In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing
the Unlegended Shares, if the Company's transfer agent is participating in the
Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer program,
upon request of a Subscriber, so long as the certificates therefor do not bear a
legend and the Subscriber is not obligated to return such certificate for the
placement of a legend thereon, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to
electronically transmit the Unlegended Shares by crediting the account of
Subscriber's prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent
Commission system. Such delivery must be made on or before the Unlegended Shares
Delivery Date.
(c) The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of
the Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 10 hereof beyond the Unlegended Shares
Delivery Date could result in economic loss to a Subscriber. As compensation to
a Subscriber for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payment fees (as
liquidated damages and not as a penalty) to the Subscriber for late delivery of
Unlegended Shares in the amount of $100 per business day after the Delivery Date
for each $10,000 of purchase price of the Unlegended Shares subject to the
delivery default. If during any 360 day period, the Company fails to deliver
Unlegended Shares as required by this Section 10.7 for an aggregate of thirty
(30) days, then each Subscriber or assignee holding Securities subject to such
default may, at its option, require the Company to purchase all or any portion
of the Shares and Warrant Shares subject to such default at a price per share
equal to 130% of the Purchase Price of such Common Stock and Warrant Shares. The
Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately
available funds upon demand.
(d) In addition to any other rights available to a Subscriber,
if the Company fails to deliver to a Subscriber Unlegended Shares as required
pursuant to this Agreement, within ten (10) calendar days after the Unlegended
Shares Delivery Date and the Subscriber purchases (in an open market transaction
or otherwise) shares of common stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by
such Subscriber of the shares of Common Stock which the Subscriber anticipated
receiving from the Company (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall pay in cash to
the Subscriber (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the
Subscriber) the amount by which (A) the Subscriber's total purchase price
(including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of common stock so
purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate purchase price of the shares of Common Stock
delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares, together with
interest thereon at a rate of 15% per annum, accruing until such amount and any
accrued interest thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be paid as
liquidated damages and not as a penalty). For example, if a Subscriber purchases
shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a
Buy-In with respect to $10,000 of purchase price of shares of Common Stock
delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares, the Company shall
be required to pay the Subscriber $1,000, plus interest. The Subscriber shall
provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the
Subscriber in respect of the Buy-In.
(e) In the event a Subscriber shall request delivery of
Unlegended Shares as described in Section 10.7(e) and the Company is required to
deliver such Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 10.7(e), the Company may not
refuse to deliver Unlegended Shares based on any claim that such Subscriber or
any one associated or affiliated with such Subscriber has been engaged in any
violation of law, or for any other reason, unless, an injunction or temporary
restraining order from a court, on notice, restraining and or enjoining delivery
of such Unlegended Shares or exercise of all or part of said Warrant shall have
been sought and obtained and the Company has posted a surety bond for the
benefit of such Subscriber in the amount of 130% of the amount of the aggregate
purchase price of the Common Stock and Warrant Shares which are subject to the
injunction or temporary restraining order, which bond shall remain in effect
until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds
of which shall be payable to such Subscriber to the extent Subscriber obtains
judgment in Subscriber's favor.
19
11. (a) RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. Commencing on the date of this
Agreement and until the Registration Statement has been effective for one
hundred and fifty (150) days, the Subscribers shall be given not less than ten
(10) business days prior written notice of any proposed sale by the Company of
its common stock or other securities or debt obligations, except in connection
with (i) employee stock options or compensation plans, (ii) as full or partial
consideration in connection with any merger, consolidation or purchase of
substantially all of the securities or assets of any corporation or other
entity, or (iii) as has been described in the Reports or Other Written
Information filed with the Commission or delivered to the Subscribers prior to
the Closing Date (collectively "EXCEPTED ISSUANCES"). The Subscribers who
exercise their rights pursuant to this Section 11(a) shall have the right during
the ten (10) business days following receipt of the notice to purchase all of
such offered common stock, debt or other securities in accordance with the terms
and conditions set forth in the notice of sale in the same proportion to each
other as their purchase of Shares in the Offering. In the event such terms and
conditions are modified during the notice period, the Subscribers shall be given
prompt notice of such modification and shall have the right during the original
notice period or for a period of ten (10) business days following the notice of
modification, whichever is longer, to exercise such right.
(b) FAVORED NATIONS PROVISION. Other than the Excepted
Issuances, if at any time until the Registration Statement has been effective
for one hundred and fifty (150) days, if the Company shall offer, issue or agree
to issue any common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for
shares of common stock (or modify any of the foregoing which may be outstanding
at any time prior to the Closing Date) to any person or entity at a price per
share or conversion or exercise price per share which shall be less than the Per
Share Purchase Price, without the consent of each Subscriber holding Shares,
then the Company shall issue, for each such occasion, additional shares of
Common Stock to each Subscriber so that the average Per Share Purchase Price of
the shares of Common Stock issued to the Subscriber (of only the Common Stock or
Warrant Shares still owned by the Subscriber) is equal to such other lower price
per share. The delivery to the Subscriber of the additional shares of Common
Stock shall be not later than the closing date of the transaction giving rise to
the requirement to issue additional shares of Common Stock. The Subscriber is
granted the registration rights described in Section 10 hereof in relation to
such additional shares of Common Stock except that the Filing Date and Effective
Date vis-a-vis such additional common shares shall be, respectively, the
sixtieth (60th) and one hundred and twentieth (120th) date after the closing
date giving rise to the requirement to issue the additional shares of Common
Stock. For purposes of the issuance and adjustment described in this paragraph,
the issuance of any security of the Company carrying the right to convert such
security into shares of Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to
purchase Common Stock shall result in the issuance of the additional shares of
Common Stock upon the issuance of such convertible security, warrant, right or
option and again upon any subsequent issuances of shares of Common Stock upon
exercise of such conversion or purchase rights if such issuance is at a price
lower than the then Per Share Purchase Price. The rights of the Subscriber set
forth in this Section 11 are in addition to any other rights the Subscriber has
pursuant to this Agreement and any other agreement referred to or entered into
in connection herewith.
(c) MAXIMUM EXERCISE OF RIGHTS. In the event the exercise of
the rights described in Sections 11(a) and 11(c) would result in the issuance of
an amount of common stock of the Company that would exceed the maximum amount
that may be issued to a Subscriber calculated in the manner described in Section
10 of the Warrant, then the issuance of such additional shares of common stock
of the Company to such Subscriber will be deferred in whole or in part until
such time as such Subscriber is able to beneficially own such common stock
without exceeding the maximum amount set forth calculated in the manner
described in Section 10 of the Warrant. The determination of when such common
stock may be issued shall be made by each Subscriber as to only such Subscriber.

(c) ENTIRE AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement and other
documents delivered in connection herewith represent the entire agreement
between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and may be
amended only by a writing executed by both parties. Neither the Company nor the
Subscribers have relied on any representations not contained or referred to in
this Agreement and the documents delivered herewith. No right or obligation of
either party shall be assigned by that party without prior notice to and the
written consent of the other party.
(d) COUNTERPARTS/EXECUTION. This Agreement may be executed in
any number of counterparts and by the different signatories hereto on separate
counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but
all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument. This
Agreement may be executed by facsimile signature and delivered by facsimile
transmission.
(e) LAW GOVERNING THIS AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York
without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Any action brought by either
party against the other concerning the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement shall be brought only in the state courts of New York or in the
federal courts located in the state of New York. THE PARTIES AND THE INDIVIDUALS
EXECUTING THIS AGREEMENT AND OTHER AGREEMENTS REFERRED TO HEREIN OR DELIVERED IN
CONNECTION HEREWITH ON BEHALF OF THE COMPANY AGREE TO SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION
OF SUCH COURTS AND WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY. The prevailing party shall be entitled
to recover from the other party its reasonable attorney's fees and costs. In the
event that any provision of this Agreement or any other agreement delivered in
connection herewith is invalid or unenforceable under any
21
applicable statute or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed
inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed
modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any such provision which
may prove invalid or unenforceable under any law shall not affect the validity
or enforceability of any other provision of any agreement.
(f) SPECIFIC ENFORCEMENT, CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. The Company
and Subscriber acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the
event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in
accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is
accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or
injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and
to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition
to any other remedy to which any of them may be entitled by law or equity.
Subject to Section 12(e) hereof, each of the Company, Subscriber and any
signator hereto in his personal capacity hereby waives, and agrees not to assert
in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally
subject to the jurisdiction in New York of such court, that the suit, action or
proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of the suit,
action or proceeding is improper. Nothing in this Section shall affect or limit
any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
(g) INDEPENDENT NATURE OF SUBSCRIBERS. The Company
acknowledges that the obligations of each Subscriber under the Transaction
Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other
Subscriber, and no Subscriber shall be responsible in any way for the
performance of the obligations of any other Subscriber under the Transaction
Documents. The Company acknowledges that the decision of each Subscriber to
purchase Securities has been made by such Subscriber independently of any other
Subscriber and independently of any information, materials, statements or
opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties,
liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or
prospects of the Company which may have been made or given by any other
Subscriber or by any agent or employee of any other Subscriber, and no
Subscriber or any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any
Subscriber (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such
information, materials, statements or opinions. The Company acknowledges that
nothing contained in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any
Subscriber pursuant hereto or thereto (including, but not limited to, the (i)
inclusion of a Subscriber in the SB-2 Registration Statement and (ii) review by,
and consent to, such Registration Statement by a Subscriber) shall be deemed to
constitute the Subscribers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or
any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Subscribers are in
any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges
that each Subscriber shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its
rights, including without limitation, the rights arising out of the Transaction
Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Subscriber to be joined
as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The Company
acknowledges that it has elected to provide all Subscribers with the same terms
and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because
Company was required or requested to do so by the Subscribers. The Company
acknowledges that such procedure with respect to the Transaction Documents in no
way creates a presumption that the Subscribers are in any way acting in concert
or as a group with respect to the Transaction Documents or the transactions
contemplated thereby.
(h) EQUITABLE ADJUSTMENT. The Securities and the purchase
prices of Securities shall be equitably adjusted to offset the effect of stock
splits, stock dividends, and distributions of property or equity interests of
the Company to its shareholders.
