RECITALS

 

WHEREAS, the Company desires to sell to the Investors, and the Investors desire to purchase from the Company (i) 3,300,000 shares (the “Offered Shares”) of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”); and

 

WHEREAS, the Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offer and sale of the Offered Shares pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (the “Offering”) for general corporate purposes.

 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the agreements set forth below, the parties agree as follows:

 

ARTICLE 1

SALE AND PURCHASE; CLOSING

 

1.1              Authorization of Issuance and Sale. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Company has authorized the issuance and sale of the Offered Shares (the “Purchased Securities”).

 

1.2              Commitment to Purchase the Purchased Securities. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Investors hereby agree to purchase from the Company the Offered Shares, and the Company hereby agrees to issue and deliver to the Investors stock certificates representing the Shares. Schedule 1.2 sets forth the number of Shares to be purchased by each Investor (each such number of Offered Shares, an “Investor’s Allocation”).

 

1.3              Payment of the Purchase Price for the Purchased Securities. All payments pursuant to this Section 1.3 shall be made by each Investor by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Company. The account for payment shall be designated by the Company to the Investors at least one business day prior to the Closing Date. On the Closing Date each Investor shall pay such dollar amount equal to the product of (a) $1.5366 (the “Per Share Purchase Price”) multiplied by (b) the Investor’s Allocation (collectively, for all Investors, the “Shares Purchase Price”).

 

1.4              Closing of the Purchased Securities. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Purchased Securities (the “Closing”) shall take place simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement via e-mail by means of PDF copies of signed documents (with the original signed documents to be delivered promptly after Closing), or at such other time and by such other means as shall be agreed to by the Company and the Investors (such date, the “Closing Date”).

 

 

 

 

ARTICLE 2

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

 

The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Investors as of the date hereof as follows:

 

2.1              Reporting Compliance. The Company has timely filed or furnished, as applicable, all forms, statements, certifications, reports and documents required to be filed or furnished by it with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). For the avoidance of doubt, except where the context otherwise requires, as used in this Article 2, the term “Company” refers to the Company and all of its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

 

2.2              Incorporation and Good Standing of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Company and each of the Subsidiaries (i) has been duly organized or formed, as the case may be, is validly existing and is in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, (ii) has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business and to own, lease and operate its properties and assets as described in the forms, statements, certifications, reports and documents required to be filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Company prior to the date hereof (“Company SEC Reports”) and (iii) is duly qualified or licensed to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation, partnership or other entity as the case may be, authorized to do business in each jurisdiction in which the nature of such businesses or the ownership or leasing of such properties requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified or, solely with respect to the Subsidiaries, in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on (A) the properties, business, prospects, operations, earnings, assets, liabilities or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, (B) the ability of the Company or any Subsidiary to perform its obligations in all material respects under any Transaction Document (as defined below), (C) the validity or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents, or (D) the consummation of any of the Transactions (as defined below) (each, a “Material Adverse Effect”).

 

2.3              Legal Power and Authority; Noncontravention; No Injunctions.

 

(a)                The Company has all necessary power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents and to consummate the Transactions, and no stockholder actions or other approvals are necessary for the Company’s execution, delivery and performance of its obligations under the Transaction Documents and to consummate the Transactions. The consummation of the Transactions contemplated will not conflict with nor result in a violation of the Company’s certificate of incorporation or by-laws or any laws or regulations applicable to the Company.

 

(b)               No injunction or order has been issued that would prevent or suspend the issuance or sale of any of the Offered Shares in any jurisdiction or would prevent the offer and sale of the Offered Shares pursuant to this Agreement or the subsequent filing of a registration statement with the SEC to register resales of the Purchased Securities as contemplated by the form of registration rights agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Registration Rights Agreement” and together with this Agreement and the form of letter agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Exemption Letter”), the “Transaction Documents”), and no proceeding for either such purpose has commenced or is pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, is threatened.

 

2

 

 

2.4              Authorization of Agreements; Enforceability. Each of this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Exemption Letter has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company a, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except that the enforcement thereof may be subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general principles of equity (whether applied by a court of law or equity) and the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought and (iii) with respect to the rights to indemnity or contribution hereunder, federal and state securities laws and public policy considerations.

 

2.5              No Consents. No consent, approval, authorization, order, filing or registration of or with any U.S. or non-U.S. federal, state, local or other governmental or regulatory authority, governmental or regulatory agency or body, court, arbitrator or self-regulatory organization (each, a “Governmental Authority”) or third party is required for execution, delivery or performance of the Transaction Documents or the consummation of the Transactions, except (i) those that have been official or made, as the case may be, that are in full force and effect, (ii) as may be required under any federal securities laws or the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of U.S. state or non-U.S. jurisdictions and (iii) as may be required by the rules of The NASDAQ National Market.

 

2.6              No Material Misstatement or Omission. The Company SEC Reports filed on or after March 3, 2016 as of the respective dates upon which they were filed with the SEC (and as updated by information contained in subsequent filings by the Company with the SEC) did not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and the financial statements included (or to be included) therein (as updated by information contained in subsequent filings by the Company with the SEC) fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of the dates indicated therein and the results of the Company’s operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the periods specified therein.

In the event that any Investor Indemnitee claims any such right of indemnification, such Investor Indemnitee shall provide to the Company written notice thereof, together with reasonable detail regarding such claims and in the event that such claim involves third party claims, allow the Company at its expense to defend such claim(s) on the Investor Indemnitee’s behalf. The Company shall promptly reimburse each Investor Indemnitee for any reasonable and properly documented legal and any other necessary expenses incurred by such Investor Indemnitee in connection with investigating and defending any such expense, loss, judgment, claim, damage, liability or action, but only to the extent incurred prior to the assumption by the Company of the defense thereof. Any reimbursement by the Company under this Section 5.1 shall be within sixty (60) days, provided that any individual expense in excess of $10,000 shall require the Company’s prior approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company reserves the right to withhold approval where in the good faith judgment of the Company, the expenses are not reasonable or properly documented.  The Company agrees that it will not, without the Investor Indemnitee’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof in any pending or threatened action, suit, claim or proceeding in respect of which indemnification has been sought hereunder unless such settlement or compromise includes an unconditional release of such Investor Indemnitee from all liability arising out of such action, suit, claim or proceeding. The obligations of the Company under this Article 5 shall survive Closing and the transfer, conversion, exchange or redemption of any Offered Shares; provided, however, that the obligations of the Company under this Article 5 with respect to breach of the representations contained in Sections 2.1, 2.3(b), 2.5 and 2.6 shall expire one (1) year from the date hereof. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Transaction Documents to the contrary, the Company shall not be liable to any Investor Indemnitee for any consequential, incidental, indirect, special, exemplary or punitive damages of such Investor Indemnitee relating to any matters for which indemnification is provided for under this Article 5, other than any such damages arising from a claim of a third party. Except for intentional fraud, the provisions of this Article 5 are intended to and shall provide for the exclusive monetary remedy for any and all Investor Indemnitees for the matters for which an Investor Indemnitee may be indemnified under this Article 5 following Closing.

5.2              Indemnification by the Investors.

In the event that any Company Indemnitee claims any such right of indemnification, such Company Indemnitee shall provide to such Investor written notice thereof, together with reasonable detail regarding such claims and in the event that such claim involves third party claims, allow such Investor at its expense to defend such claim(s) on the Company Indemnitee’s behalf. Such Investor shall promptly reimburse the Company Indemnitee for any reasonable and properly documented legal and any other necessary expenses incurred by the Company Indemnitee in connection with investigating and defending any such expense, loss, judgment, claim, damage, liability or action, but only to the extent incurred prior to the assumption by such Investor of the defense thereof. Any reimbursement by the Investor under this Section 5.2 shall be within sixty (60) days, provided that any individual expense in excess of $10,000 shall require such Investor’s prior approval.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Investor reserves the right to withhold approval where in the good faith judgment of such Investor, the expenses are not reasonable or properly documented.  The Company agrees that it will not, without the Company Indemnitee’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof in any pending or threatened action, suit, claim or proceeding in respect of which indemnification has been sought hereunder unless such settlement or compromise includes an unconditional release of such Company Indemnitee from all liability arising out of such action, suit, claim or proceeding. The obligations of such Investor under this Article 5 shall survive Closing and the transfer, conversion, exchange or redemption of any Offered Shares. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Transaction Documents to the contrary, such Investor shall not be liable to any Company Indemnitee for any consequential, incidental, indirect, special, exemplary or punitive damages of such Company Indemnitee relating to any matters for which indemnification is provided for under this Article 5, other than any such damages arising from a claim of a third party. Except for fraud, the provisions of this Article 5 are intended to and shall provide for the exclusive monetary remedy for any and all Company Indemnitees for the matters for which a Company Indemnitee may be indemnified under this Article 5 following Closing.

6.2              Fees and Expenses. Each of the Company, on the one hand, and the Investors, on the other hand, shall pay all of their respective expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby; provided, however, that the Company shall pay, and hold the Investors, their Affiliates and each of their representatives harmless against all liability for the payment of (i)  the reasonable and properly documented fees and charges of Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP, counsel to the Investors, up to a maximum amount of $25,000 that are incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the preparation, execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and (ii) any stamp or similar taxes which may be determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery and performance of any Transaction Document or any modification, amendment or alteration of any Transaction Document, and all issue taxes in respect of the issuance of any Purchased Securities.

It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the law and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. Accordingly, in the event that any provision of this Agreement would be held in any jurisdiction to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable for any reason, such provision, as to such jurisdiction, shall be ineffective, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such provision could be more narrowly drawn so as not be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in such jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be so narrowly drawn, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

6.5              No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except the Investor Indemnitees and Company Indemnitees are intended third party beneficiaries of Article 6 hereof.
