2.3     No Violation.  Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of: (a) any of the provisions of its certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational or charter documents; or (b) any judgment, decree or order or any statute, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except for possible violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

2.7      No Conflicts.  The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, the reservation for issuance of the Conversion Shares) will not (i) result in a violation of any articles or certificate of incorporation, any certificate of designations, preferences and rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock or bylaws of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any material agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or affected, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), for such breaches or defaults as would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

3.2       Representations and Warranties.  The Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company as of the date of this Agreement as follows:

 

 

 

 

 

(a)     If the Purchaser is a corporation, limited liability company or partnership, the Purchaser is duly incorporated or organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization.

 

(b)     This Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by the Purchaser and is a valid and binding agreement and obligation of the Purchaser enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, subject to limitations on enforcement by general principles of equity and by bankruptcy or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and the Purchaser has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the other agreements and documents contemplated hereby and to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder.

 

(c)     The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in business and financial matters as will enable it to evaluate the merits and risks of the prospective investment and to make an informed investment decision.  The Purchaser is also aware that no governmental agency has reviewed or endorsed the Securities and that the Securities involve a high degree of economic risk.  The Securities the Purchaser is purchasing are the kind that the Purchaser wishes to hold for investment and the nature of the Securities are consistent with the Purchaser’s investment program.  The Purchaser, in making the decision to purchase the Securities, has relied upon independent investigation made by it and has not relied on any information or representations made by third parties.

 

(d)     The Purchaser has been advised and is fully aware that investing in the Securities is a speculative and uncertain undertaking, the advantages and benefits of which are generally limited to a certain class of investors who understand the nature of the proposed operations of the Company and for whom the investment is suitable.  The Purchaser represents that it meets such suitability requirements.

 

(e)     The Purchaser has had the opportunity to consult its own independent professional advisors with respect to the legal, financial and tax consequences of purchasing the Securities.

 

(f)     The Purchaser is capable of assessing and evaluating the risks and merits of an investment in the Securities as a result of the Purchaser’s financial, investment or business experience or as a result of advice received from a registered person other than the Company or an affiliate thereof, and the Purchaser is able to bear the economic loss of its investment.

 

(g)     The Purchaser has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Securities and/or any use of this Agreement, including (i) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the purchase of the Securities, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale, or transfer of the Securities.

 

 

 

 

 

(h)     The Purchaser is purchasing the Securities for its own account for investment, not as a nominee or agent, without any present intention to distribution, assignment, resale or other transfer of the Securities in any manner which would result in a violation of any provision of United States securities laws.  Except as specifically stated herein, no other person has a direct or indirect beneficial interest in the Securities.  Because the Securities are not registered, the Purchaser is aware that it must hold them indefinitely unless they are registered under the Securities Act or it must obtain exemptions from such registration.  The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company is under no duty to register the Securities or comply with any exemption in connection with the Purchaser’s proposed sale, transfer or other disposition under applicable rules and regulations, except as described in this Agreement.  The Purchaser understands that if it desires to sell, assign, transfer, hypothecate or in any way alienate or encumber the Securities in the future, the Company can require that it provide, at its own expense, an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company to the effect that such action will not result in a violation of applicable United States federal or state securities laws and regulations or other applicable federal or state laws and regulations.

 

(i)     The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as defined under Rule 501 of Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities Act (“Regulation D”).

 

(j)     The Purchaser has not purchased the Securities as a result of any form of General Solicitation or General Advertising as these terms are defined in Regulation D.  The solicitation of an offer to purchase the Securities was directly communicated to the Purchaser.  At no time was the Purchaser presented with or solicited by or through any leaflet, public promotional meeting, circular, newspaper or magazine article, radio or television advertisement or any other form of general advertising in connection with such communicated offer.
