Buyer’s financial condition is such that it is able to bear the risk of holding the Securities for an indefinite period of time and the risk of loss of its entire investment. Buyer has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and in investing in companies similar to the Company so as to be able to evaluate the risks and merits of its investment in the Company.

Buyer has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Securities.
(i) No Governmental Review. Buyer understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Securities, nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Securities.
(j) Transfer or Resale. Buyer may not transfer or offer to transfer the Amended and Restated Promissory Note. Buyer understands that except as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, the offer and sale of the Securities have not been and are not being registered under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws, and the Securities may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (i) the resale of the Securities has subsequently been registered thereunder; (ii) Buyer shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that such Yield Enhancement Shares to be sold, assigned or transferred may be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration; or (iii) Buyer provides the Company with reasonable assurance that such Securities can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A promulgated under the 1933 Act (or, in each case, a successor rule thereto).

The Schedules shall be arranged by the Company in paragraphs corresponding to the sections and subsections contained in this Section 3.
(a) Organization and Qualification. The Company and each Subsidiary is duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is formed, and has the requisite power and authorization to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted. The Company and each Subsidiary is duly qualified as a foreign entity to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect. As used in this Agreement, “Material Adverse Effect” means any material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, operations, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company, taken as whole, or on the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents, or on the authority or ability of the Company or its Subsidiaries to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents. The Company has no subsidiaries except those that are a party to this Agreement.
(b) Authorization; Enforcement; Validity. The Company and each Subsidiary has the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents and to issue the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Company and each Subsidiary has been duly authorized by the board of directors of the Company and each Subsidiary, and the consummation by the Company and each Subsidiary of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Securities, have been duly authorized by the board of directors of the Company and (other than the filing with the SEC of a Form D and one or more Registration Statements in accordance with the requirements of the Registration Rights Agreement, and other than filings with “Blue Sky” authorities as required therein) no further filing, consent, or authorization is required by the Company, any Subsidiary or their respective boards of directors or stockholders. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents of even date herewith have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and each Subsidiary, and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company and each Subsidiary, enforceable against the Company and each Subsidiary in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies.
(c) Issuance of Securities. The issuance of the Securities is duly authorized and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof. Upon issuance on the Closing Date, the Yield Enhancement Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all preemptive or similar rights, taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof, with the holders being entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of Common Stock. Assuming the accuracy of the representations made by Buyer in Section 2, the offer and issuance by the Company of the Securities is exempt from registration under the 1933 Act.

(d) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents by the Company and each Subsidiary and the consummation by the Company and each Subsidiary of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Securities) will not (i) result in a violation of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, the Company’s Bylaws, or the governing documents of any of the Subsidiaries or the terms of any capital stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (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 agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party; or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws) 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.

All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and registrations which the Company and the Subsidiaries are required to obtain pursuant to the preceding sentence have been obtained or effected on or prior to the Closing Date, and the Company and each Subsidiary is unaware of any facts or circumstances which might prevent the Company and its Subsidiaries from obtaining or effecting any of the registrations, applications or filings pursuant to the preceding sentence.

Company further acknowledges that Buyer not is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company or any Subsidiary (or in any similar capacity) with respect to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and any advice given by Buyer or any of its representatives or agents in connection with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby is merely incidental to Buyer’s purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents to Buyer that the Company’s and the Subsidiaries’ decisions to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents have been based solely on the independent evaluation by the Company, the Subsidiaries and their respective representatives.
(g) No Integrated Offering. Neither the Company, nor its Subsidiaries, nor any of their affiliates or any Person acting on their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would require registration of any of the Securities under the 1933 Act or cause this offering of the Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the 1933 Act or any applicable stockholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any exchange or automated quotation system on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated. None of the Company, its Subsidiaries, their affiliates or any Person acting on their behalf will take any action or steps referred to in the preceding sentence that would require registration of any of the Securities under the 1933 Act or cause the offering of the Securities to be integrated with other offerings. All offers or sales by the Company or its Subsidiaries set forth on Schedule 3(g) hereto were made to “accredited investors” (as such term is defined in the 1933 Act) in compliance with Rule 506 of the 1933 Act.

(i) Application of Takeover Protections; Rights Agreement. The Company and its Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation which is or could become applicable to Buyer as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Company’s issuance of the Securities and Buyer’s ownership of the Securities.

As of their respective dates, or as subsequently amended, the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Documents, and none of the SEC Documents, at the time they were filed with the SEC, contained 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. As of their respective dates, the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents, as amended, complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto; or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company as of the dates thereof and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments).

Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries, as of the Closing or Second Tranche Closing, and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby to occur at the Closing or Second Tranche Closing, will be Insolvent (as defined below). For purposes of this Section 3(k), “Insolvent” means, with respect to the Company or any Subsidiary, (i) the present fair saleable value of the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s assets is less than the amount required to pay the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s total Indebtedness (as defined in Section 3(q)), as applicable; (ii) the Company or any Subsidiary is unable to pay its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured; (iii) the Company or any Subsidiary intends to incur or believes that it will incur debts that would be beyond its ability to pay as such debts mature; or (iv) the Company or any Subsidiary has unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which it is engaged as such business is now conducted and is proposed to be conducted.

In making such allocation, the parties hereto shall agree, based upon the advice of their financial advisors, upon the appropriate methodology to be used for determining the relative fair market values of the Amended and Restated Promissory Note and the Yield Enhancement Shares.

(n) Corporate Existence. So long as Buyer beneficially owns any Securities, the Company shall not be party to any Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Notes) unless the Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions set forth in the Notes.
5. | TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS. |
(a) Registers. The Company’s transfer agent is Registrar and Transfer Company.

(b) Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent, and any subsequent transfer agent, to issue certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), registered in the name of Buyer or its respective nominee(s), for the Yield Enhancement Shares in such amounts as specified from time to time by Buyer to the Company in the form of Exhibit G attached hereto (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”). The Company warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 5(b), and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Sections 2(j) and 2(k) hereof, will be given by the Company to its transfer agent with respect to the Yield Enhancement Shares and that the Yield Enhancement Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable (subject to applicable federal and state securities laws) on the books and records of the Company, as applicable, and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. If Buyer effects a sale, assignment or transfer of Yield Enhancement Shares in accordance with Sections 2(j) and 2(k), the Company shall permit the transfer and shall promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC in such name and in such denominations as specified by Buyer to effect such sale, transfer or assignment (subject to applicable federal and state securities laws). In the event that such sale, assignment or transfer involves Yield Enhancement Shares sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144, the transfer agent shall issue such Yield Enhancement Shares to Buyer, assignee or transferee, as the case may be, without any restrictive legend. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to Buyer.

9. | MISCELLANEOUS. |
(a) Governing Law; Jurisdiction. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Delaware. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in Delaware, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.
21
(b) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other party; provided that a facsimile signature shall be considered due execution and shall be binding upon the signatory thereto with the same force and effect as if the signature were an original, not a facsimile signature.
(c) Headings. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement.
(d) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.
(e) Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between Buyer, the Company, the Company’s Subsidiaries, and their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf with respect to the matters discussed herein, and this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company, nor the Company’s Subsidiaries, nor Buyer makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and Buyer. No provision hereof may be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. No such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it applies to less than all of the holders of the applicable Securities then outstanding. The Company has not, directly or indirectly, made any agreements with Buyer relating to the terms or conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents except as set forth in the Transaction Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company confirms that, except as set forth in this Agreement, Buyer has not made any commitment or promise or has any other obligation to provide any financing to the Company or otherwise.
