Any such qualifications and filings will, in the case of qualifications, be effective on the Closing and will, in the case of filings, be made within the time prescribed by law.

 

(f)           No Violation or Conflict.  Assuming the representations and warranties of the Subscriber in Section 4 are true and correct, neither the issuance nor sale of the Securities nor the performance of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement and all other agreements entered into by the Company relating thereto by the Company will:

 

(i)           violate, conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default (or an event which with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both would be reasonably likely to constitute a default) under (A) the articles or certificate of incorporation, charter or bylaws of the Company, (B) to the Company's knowledge, any decree, judgment, order, law, treaty, rule, regulation or determination applicable to the Company of any court, governmental agency or body, or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Company or over the properties or assets of the Company or any of its Affiliates, (C) the terms of any bond, debenture, note or any other evidence of indebtedness, or any agreement, stock option or other similar plan, indenture, lease, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument to which the Company or any of its Affiliates is a party, by which the Company or any of its Affiliates is bound, or to which any of the properties of the Company or any of its Affiliates is subject, or (D) the terms of any "lock-up" or similar provision of any underwriting or similar agreement to which the Company, or any of its Affiliates is a party except the violation, conflict, breach, or default of which would not have a Material Adverse Effect; or

 

(ii)           result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon the Securities or any of the assets of the Company or any of its Affiliates except in favor of Subscriber as described herein; or

 

(iii)           result in the activation of any anti-dilution rights or a reset or repricing of any debt, equity or security instrument of any creditor or equity holder of the Company, or the holder of the right to receive any debt, equity or security instrument of the Company nor result in the acceleration of the due date of any obligation of the Company; or

 

               (iv)           result in the triggering of any piggy-back or other registration rights of any person or entity holding securities of the Company or having the right to receive securities of the Company.

 

(g)           The Securities.  The Securities upon issuance:

 

(i)           are, or will be, free and clear of any security interests, liens, claims or other encumbrances, subject only to restrictions upon transfer under the 1933 Act and any applicable state securities laws;

(ii)           have been, or will be, duly and validly authorized and on the dates of issuance of the Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Note, and the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants, such Shares and Warrant Shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and if registered pursuant to the 1933 Act and resold pursuant to an effective registration statement or exempt from registration will be free trading, unrestricted and unlegended;

 

 

(iii)           will not have been issued or sold in violation of any preemptive or other similar rights of the holders of any securities of the Company or rights to acquire securities of the Company; and

 

(iv)           will not subject the holders thereof to personal liability by reason of being such holders.

 

(h)           Litigation.  There is no pending or, to the best knowledge of the Company, threatened action, suit, proceeding or investigation before any court, governmental agency or body, or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Company, or any of its Affiliates that would affect the execution by the Company or the complete and timely performance by the Company of its obligations under the Transaction Documents.  Except as disclosed in the Reports, there is no pending or, to the best knowledge of the Company, basis for or threatened action, suit, proceeding or investigation before any court, governmental agency or body, or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Company, or any of its Affiliates which litigation if adversely determined would have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(i)           No Market Manipulation.  The Company and its Affiliates have not taken, and will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to, or that might reasonably be expected to, cause or result in stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Common Stock to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities or affect the price at which the Securities may be issued or resold.

 

(j)           Information Concerning Company.  The Reports and Other Written Information contain all material information relating to the Company and its operations and financial condition as of their respective dates which information is required to be disclosed therein.   Since July 31, 2008 and except as modified in the Reports and Other Written Information or in the Schedules hereto, there has been no Material Adverse Effect relating to the Company's business, financial condition or affairs. The Reports and Other Written Information, including the financial statements included therein do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, taken as a whole, not misleading in light of the circumstances and when made.

 

(k)           Defaults.  The Company is not in material violation of its articles of incorporation or bylaws.   The Company is (i) not in default under or in violation of any other material agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties are bound or affected, which default or violation would have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) not in default with respect to any order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body or subject to or party to any order of any court or governmental authority arising out of any action, suit or proceeding under any statute or other law respecting antitrust, monopoly, restraint of trade, unfair competition or similar matters which default would have a Material Adverse Effect, or (iii) not in violation of any statute, rule or regulation of any governmental authority which violation would have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(l)           No Integrated Offering.   Neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has directly or indirectly made any offers or sales of any security of the Company nor solicited any offers to buy any security of the Company under circumstances that would cause the offer of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement 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 the Bulletin Board.  No prior offering will impair the exemptions relied upon in this Offering or the Company’s ability to timely comply with its obligations hereunder.  Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates will take any action or steps that would cause the offer or issuance of the Securities to be integrated with other offerings which would impair the exemptions relied upon in this Offering or the Company’s ability to timely comply with its obligations hereunder.  The Company will not conduct any offering other than the transactions contemplated hereby that may be integrated with the offer or issuance of the Securities that would impair the exemptions relied upon in this Offering or the Company’s ability to timely comply with its obligations hereunder.

 

 

(m)           No General Solicitation.  Neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates, nor to its knowledge, any person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D under the 1933 Act) in connection with the offer or sale of the Securities.

 

(n)           No Undisclosed Liabilities.  The Company has no liabilities or obligations which are material, individually or in the aggregate, other than those incurred in the ordinary course of the Company businesses since July 31, 2008 and which, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, except as disclosed in the Reports or on Schedule 5(n).

 

(o)           No Undisclosed Events or Circumstances.  Since July 31, 2008, except as disclosed in the Reports, no event or circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to the Company or its businesses, properties, operations or financial condition, that, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure or announcement prior to the date hereof by the Company but which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed in the Reports.

 

 (p)           Dilution.   The Company's executive officers and directors understand the nature of the Securities being sold hereby and recognize that the issuance of the Securities will have a potential dilutive effect on the equity holdings of other holders of the Company’s equity or rights to receive equity of the Company.  The board of directors of the Company has concluded, in its good faith business judgment that the issuance of the Securities is in the best interests of the Company.  The Company specifically acknowledges that its obligation to issue the Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Note and the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants is binding upon the Company and enforceable regardless of the dilution such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other shareholders of the Company or parties entitled to receive equity of the Company.

 

(q)           No Disagreements with Accountants and Lawyers.  Other than the opinion regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a “going concern,” as disclosed in the Company’s Reports, there are no material disagreements of any kind presently existing, or reasonably anticipated by the Company to arise between the Company and the accountants and lawyers previously and presently employed by the Company, including but not limited to disputes or conflicts over payment owed to such accountants and lawyers, nor have there been any such disagreements during the two years prior to the Closing Date.

(r)           Investment Company.   Neither the Company nor any Affiliate of the Company is an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

(t)           Reporting Company/Shell Company.  The Company is a publicly-held company subject to reporting obligations pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act") and has a class of Common Stock registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the 1934 Act.  Pursuant to the provisions of the 1934 Act, the Company has timely filed all reports and other materials required to be filed thereunder with the Commission during the preceding twelve months.  As of the Closing Date, the Company is a “start-up” company as referred to in Footnote 172 to Rule 144 and, therefore, not considered a “shell company” as those terms are employed in Rule 144(i) under the 1933 Act.

(u)           Listing.  The Company's Common Stock is quoted on the Bulletin Board under the symbol CLRH.  The Company has not received any oral or written notice that its Common Stock is not eligible nor will become ineligible for quotation on the Bulletin Board nor that its Common Stock does not meet all requirements for the continuation of such quotation.  The Company satisfies all the requirements for the continued quotation of its Common Stock on the Bulletin Board.

(x)           Correctness of Representations.  The Company represents that the foregoing representations and warranties are true and correct as of the date hereof in all material respects, and, unless the Company otherwise notifies the Subscribers prior to the Closing Date, shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date; provided, that, if such representation or warranty is made as of a different date, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true as of such date.

 

(y)           Survival.  The foregoing representations and warranties shall survive for a period of one (1) year after the Closing Date.

 

6.           Regulation D Offering/Legal Opinion.  The offer and issuance of the Securities to the Subscribers is being made pursuant to the exemption from the registration provisions of the 1933 Act afforded by Section 4(2) or Section 4(6) of the 1933 Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.  On the Closing Date, the Company will provide an opinion reasonably acceptable to the Subscribers from the Company's legal counsel opining on the availability of an exemption from registration under the 1933 Act as it relates to the offer and issuance of the Securities and other matters reasonably requested by Subscribers.  A form of the legal opinion is annexed hereto as Exhibit D.  The Company will provide, at the Company's expense, such other legal opinions, if any, as are reasonably necessary in each Subscriber’s opinion for the issuance and resale of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants pursuant to an effective registration statement, Rule 144 under the 1933 Act or an exemption from registration.

 

 

                            7.1.           Conversion of Note.

(a)           Upon the conversion of a Note or part thereof, the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all necessary action, including obtaining and delivering, an opinion of counsel to assure that the Company's transfer agent shall issue stock certificates in the name of Subscriber (or its permitted nominee) or such other persons as designated by Subscriber and in such denominations to be specified at conversion representing the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion.  The Company warrants that no instructions other than these instructions have been or will be given to the transfer agent of the Company's Common Stock and that the certificates representing such shares shall contain no legend other than the legend set forth in Section 4(h).  If and when Subscriber sells the Shares, assuming (i) a registration statement including such Shares for registration, filed with the Commission is effective and the prospectus, as supplemented or amended, contained therein is current and (ii) Subscriber or its agent confirms in writing to the transfer agent that Subscriber has complied with the prospectus delivery requirements, the Company will reissue the Shares without restrictive legend and the Shares will be free-trading, and freely transferable.  In the event that the Shares are sold in a manner that complies with an exemption from registration, the Company will promptly instruct its counsel to issue to the transfer agent an opinion permitting removal of the legend indefinitely, if pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1)(i) of the 1933 Act, or for 90 days if pursuant to the other provisions of Rule 144 of the 1933 Act, provided that Subscriber delivers all reasonably requested representations in support of such opinion.

(b)           Subscriber will give notice of its decision to exercise its right to convert the Note, interest, or part thereof by telecopying, or otherwise delivering a completed Notice of Conversion (a form of which is annexed as Exhibit A to the Note) to the Company via confirmed telecopier transmission or otherwise pursuant to Section 13(a) of this Agreement.  Subscriber will not be required to surrender the Note until the Note has been fully converted or satisfied.  Each date on which a Notice of Conversion is telecopied to the Company in accordance with the provisions hereof by 6 PM Eastern Time (“ET”) (or if received by the Company after 6 PM ET, then the next business day) shall be deemed a “Conversion Date.”  The Company will itself or cause the Company’s transfer agent to transmit the Company's Common Stock certificates representing the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Note to Subscriber via express courier for receipt by Subscriber within four (4) business days after the Conversion Date (such fourth day being the “Delivery Date”).  In the event the Conversion Shares are electronically transferable, then delivery of the Shares must be made by electronic transfer provided request for such electronic transfer has been made by the Subscriber.   A Note representing the balance of the Note not so converted will be provided by the Company to Subscriber if requested by Subscriber, provided Subscriber delivers the original Note to the Company.

(c)           The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Conversion Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof, or the Mandatory Redemption Amount described in Section 7.2 hereof, respectively, later than the Delivery Date or the Mandatory Redemption Payment Date (as hereinafter defined) could result in economic loss to the Subscriber.  As compensation to Subscriber for such loss, the Company agrees to pay (as liquidated damages and not as a penalty) to Subscriber for late issuance of Conversion Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof upon Conversion of the Note, the amount of $100 per business day after the Delivery Date for each $10,000 of Note principal amount and interest (and proportionately for other amounts) being converted of the corresponding Conversion Shares which are not timely delivered not to exceed a maximum of 15% of the principal amount outstanding on the Note.  The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section upon demand.  Furthermore, in addition to any other remedies which may be available to the Subscriber, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Conversion Shares within seven (7) business days after the Delivery Date or make payment within seven (7) business days after the Mandatory Redemption Payment Date (as defined in Section 7.2 below), Subscriber will be entitled to revoke all or part of the relevant Notice of Conversion or rescind all or part of the notice of Mandatory Redemption by delivery of a notice to such effect to the Company whereupon the Company and Subscriber shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the delivery of such notice, except that the damages payable in connection with the Company’s default shall be payable through the date notice of revocation or rescission is given to the Company.

 

 

7.2.           Mandatory Redemption at Subscriber’s Election.  In the event (i) the Company is prohibited from issuing Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, (ii) the Company redeems any securities junior to the Notes, (iii) upon the occurrence of any other Event of Default (as defined in the Note or in this Agreement), that continues for more than ten (10) business days, (iv) a Change in Control (as defined below), or (v) of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, then at the Subscriber's election, the Company must pay to the Subscriber ten (10) business days after request by Subscriber (“Calculation Period”), a sum of money determined by multiplying up to the outstanding principal amount of the Note designated by Subscriber by 105%, plus accrued but unpaid interest and any other amounts due under the Transaction Documents (“Mandatory Redemption Payment”). The Mandatory Redemption Payment must be received by Subscriber not later than ten (10) business days after request (“Mandatory Redemption Payment Date”). Upon receipt of the Mandatory Redemption Payment, the corresponding Note principal, interest and other amounts will be deemed paid and no longer outstanding.  The Subscriber may rescind the election to receive a Mandatory Redemption Payment at any time until such payment is actually received.  Liquidated damages calculated pursuant to Section 7.1(c) hereof, that have been paid or accrued for the ten day period prior to the actual receipt of the Mandatory Redemption Payment by Subscriber shall be credited against the Mandatory Redemption Payment.  For purposes of this Section 7.2, “Change in Control” shall mean (i) the Company no longer having a class of shares publicly traded or listed on a Principal Market (as defined in Section 9(b) hereto), (ii) the Company  becoming a Subsidiary of another entity (other than a corporation formed by the Company for purposes of reincorporation in another U.S. jurisdiction), (iii) a majority of the board of directors of the Company as of the Closing Date no longer serving as directors of the Company except due to natural causes, and (iv) the sale, lease or transfer of substantially all the assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries.

               7.3.           Maximum Conversion.  Subscriber shall not be entitled to convert on a Conversion Date that amount of the Note nor may the Company make any payment including principal, interest, or liquidated or other damages by delivery of Conversion Shares in connection with that number of Conversion Shares which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Subscriber and its Affiliates on a Conversion Date or payment date, and (ii) the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon the conversion of the Note with respect to which the determination of this provision is being made on a calculation date, which would result in beneficial ownership by Subscriber and its Affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company on such Conversion Date.  For the purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 13d-3 thereunder.  Subject to the foregoing, the Subscriber shall not be limited to aggregate conversions of only 4.99% and aggregate conversions by the Subscriber may exceed 4.99%.  The Subscriber may increase the permitted beneficial ownership amount up to 9.99% upon and effective after 61 days prior written notice to the Company.  Subscriber may allocate which of the equity of the Company deemed beneficially owned by Subscriber shall be included in the 4.99% amount described above and which shall be allocated to the excess above 4.99%.

7.4.           Injunction Posting of Bond.  In the event Subscriber shall elect to convert a Note or part thereof, the Company may not refuse conversion based on any claim that Subscriber or any one associated or affiliated with Subscriber has been engaged in any violation of law, or for any other reason, unless, a court order, an injunction or temporary restraining order from a court made on notice to Subscriber, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or part of such Note shall have been sought and obtained by the Company or the Company has posted a surety bond for the benefit of Subscriber in the amount of 120% of the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest of the Note, or aggregate purchase price of the Shares which are sought to be which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to Subscriber to the extent the judgment or decision is in Subscriber’s favor.

 

 

               7.5.           Buy-In.   In addition to any other rights available to Subscriber, if the Company fails to deliver to Subscriber Conversion Shares by the Delivery Date and if after the Delivery Date Subscriber or a broker on Subscriber’s behalf purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by Subscriber of the Common Stock which Subscriber was entitled to receive upon such conversion (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall pay to Subscriber (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the Subscriber) the amount by which (A) Subscriber's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate principal and/or interest amount of the Note for which such conversion request was not timely honored 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 an attempted conversion of $10,000 of Note principal and/or interest, the Company shall be required to pay Subscriber $1,000 plus interest. Subscriber shall provide the Company written notice and evidence indicating the amounts payable to Subscriber in respect of the Buy-In.

7.6           Adjustments.   The Conversion Price, Warrant exercise prices and amount of Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes and Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be equitably adjusted and as otherwise described in this Agreement, the Notes and Warrants.

 

7.7.           Redemption.    The Note shall not be redeemable or callable by the Company, except as described in the Note.

 

8.           Covenants of the Company.  The Company covenants and agrees with the Subscribers as follows:

 

(a)           Stop Orders.  Subject to the prior notice requirement described in Section 9(n), the Company will advise the Subscribers, within twenty-four hours after it receives notice of issuance by the Commission, any state securities commission or any other regulatory authority of any stop order or of any order preventing or suspending any offering of any securities of the Company, or of the suspension of the qualification of the Common Stock of the Company for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation of any proceeding for any such purpose.  The Company will not issue any stop transfer order or other order impeding the sale, resale or delivery of any of the Securities, except as may be required by any applicable federal or state securities laws and unless contemporaneous notice of such instruction is given to the Subscribers.

 

(b)           Listing/Quotation.  The Company shall promptly secure the quotation or listing of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares upon each national securities exchange, or automated quotation system upon the Company’s Common Stock is quoted or listed and upon which such Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares are or become eligible for quotation or listing (subject to official notice of issuance) and shall maintain same so long as any Notes and Warrants are outstanding.  The Company will maintain the quotation or listing of its Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange, Nasdaq Capital Market, Nasdaq Global Market, Nasdaq Global Select Market, Bulletin Board, or New York Stock Exchange (whichever of the foregoing is at the time the principal trading exchange or market for the Common Stock (the “Principal Market”), and will comply in all respects with the Company's reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Principal Market, as applicable. The Company will provide Subscribers with copies of all notices it receives notifying the Company of the threatened and actual delisting of the Common Stock from any Principal Market.  As of the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, the Bulletin Board is and will be the Principal Market.

 

 

(c)           Market Regulations.  If required, the Company shall notify the Commission, the Principal Market and applicable state authorities, in accordance with their requirements, of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall take all other necessary action and proceedings as may be required and permitted by applicable law, rule and regulation, for the legal and valid issuance of the Securities to the Subscribers and promptly provide copies thereof to the Subscribers.

 

(d)           Filing Requirements.  From the date of this Agreement and until the last to occur of (i) two (2) years after the Closing Date, (ii) until all the Shares have been resold or transferred by the Subscriber pursuant to a registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1)(i), or (iii) the Note and Warrants are no longer outstanding (the date of such latest occurrence being the “End Date”), the Company will (A) cause its Common Stock to continue to be registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the 1934 Act, (B) comply in all respects with its reporting and filing obligations under the 1934 Act, (C) voluntarily comply with all reporting requirements that are applicable to an issuer with a class of shares registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the 1934 Act, if the Company is not subject to such reporting requirements, and (D) 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 the End Date.  Until the End Date, the Company will continue the listing or quotation of the Common Stock on a Principal Market 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.

(g)           DTC Program.  At all times that Notes or Warrants are outstanding, the Company will employ as the transfer agent for the Common Stock, Shares and Warrant Shares a participant in the Depository Trust Company Automated Securities Transfer Program.

 

(h)           Taxes.  From the date of this Agreement and until the End Date, 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.

(m)           Properties.  From the date of this Agreement and until the End Date, 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 and claims to which it is a party or under which it occupies or has rights to property if the breach of such provision could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The Company will not abandon any of its assets except for those assets which have negligible or marginal value or for which it is prudent to do so under the circumstances.

 

(n)           Confidentiality/Public Announcement.   From the date of this Agreement and until the End Date, the Company agrees that except in connection with a Form 8-K and the registration statement or statements regarding the Subscriber’s Securities or in correspondence with the SEC regarding same, it will not disclose publicly or privately the identity of the Subscriber unless expressly agreed to in writing by a Subscriber or only to the extent required by law and then only upon not less than three days prior notice to Subscriber.  In any event and subject to the foregoing, the Company undertakes to file a Form 8-K describing the Offering not later than the fourth (4th) business day after the Closing Date.  Prior to the Closing Date, such Form 8-K will be provided to Subscribers for their review and approval.  In the Form 8-K, the Company will specifically disclose the nature of the Offering and amount of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Closing, not including any Conversions.  Upon  delivery by the Company to the Subscribers after the Closing Date of any notice or information, in writing, electronically or otherwise, and while a Note, Conversion Shares or Warrants are held by Subscribers, unless the  Company has in good faith determined that the matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or Subsidiaries, the Company  shall within one business day after any such delivery publicly disclose such  material,  nonpublic  information on a Report on Form 8-K.  In the event that the Company believes that a notice or communication to Subscribers contains material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or Subsidiaries, the Company shall so indicate to Subscribers prior to delivery of such notice or information.  Subscribers will be granted sufficient time to notify the Company that such Subscriber elects not to receive such information.   In such case, the Company will not deliver such information to Subscribers.  In the absence of any such indication, Subscribers shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating to such notice and information do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or Subsidiaries.

 

          

 (o)           Non-Public Information.  The Company covenants and agrees that except for the Reports, Other Written Information and schedules and exhibits to this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, which information the Company undertakes to publicly disclose on the Form 8-K described in Section 9(n) above, neither it nor any other person acting on its behalf will at any time 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 accept 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.

(p)           Negative Covenants.   So long as a Note is outstanding, without the consent of the Subscribers, the Company will not and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to directly or indirectly:

9.           Covenants of the Company Regarding Indemnification.

 

(a)           The Company agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Subscriber, the Subscriber’s officers, directors, agents, Affiliates, members, managers, 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 representation or warranty by Company in this Agreement or in any Exhibits or Schedules attached hereto in any Transaction Document, or (ii) after any applicable notice and/or cure periods, any breach or default in performance by the Company of any material covenant or undertaking to be performed by the Company hereunder, or any other material agreement entered into by the Company and Subscriber relating hereto.

 

(b)           In no event shall the liability of the Subscriber or permitted successor hereunder or under any Transaction Document or other agreement delivered in connection herewith be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds actually received by such Subscriber or successor upon the sale of Registrable Securities (as defined herein).

 

(c)           The procedures set forth in Section 10.5 shall apply to the indemnification set forth in Section 9(a).

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 one hundred and eighty days after the Closing Date, but not later than two years after the Closing Date, upon a written request therefor from any record holder or holders of more than 50% of the Conversion Shares issued and issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Notes and outstanding Warrant Shares, the Company shall prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement under the 1933 Act registering the Registrable Securities, as defined in Section 10.1(iv) hereof, 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 (A) registered for resale in an effective registration statement, (B) included for registration in a pending registration statement, (C) which have been issued without further transfer restrictions after a sale or transfer pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act or (D) which may be resold under Rule 144 without volume limitations.  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 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 S-4, S-8 or another form not available for 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 ten (10) 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).

 

                                10.2.        Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required by the provisions of Sections 10.1(i) or 10.1(ii) 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 11, with respect to such securities and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective for the period of the distribution contemplated thereby (determined as herein provided), promptly provide to the holders of the Registrable Securities copies of all filings and Commission letters of comment and notify the Sellers (by telecopier and by e-mail addresses provided by the Subscribers) on or before the second  business day thereafter that the Company receives notice that (i) the Commission has no comments or no further comments on the registration statement, and (ii) the registration statement has been declared effective.

 

(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 or make them electronically available;

 

(d)           use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under the securities or “blue sky” laws of New York and 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;

(f)           notify the Sellers within twenty-four hours of the Company’s becoming aware that 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 or which becomes subject to a Commission, state or other governmental order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement covering any of the Registrable Securities;

 

(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 during reasonable business hours,  and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Sellers 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 Sellers, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement at such requesting Seller’s expense; and

 

(h)           provide to the Sellers copies of the Registration Statement and amendments thereto five business days prior to the filing thereof with the Commission.  Any Seller’s failure to comment on any registration statement or other document provided to a Subscriber or its counsel shall not be construed to constitute approval thereof nor the accuracy thereof.

 

10.3.           Provision of Documents.  In connection with each registration described in this Section 11, each Seller 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.

10.5.           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 of the officers, directors, agents, Affiliates, members, managers, control persons, and principal shareholders 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 to Section 10, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any

 

 

(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 pursuant to 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 10.5(c) and shall only relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party under this Section 10.5(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 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 10.5(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 indemnifying party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to indemnified party 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, reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified and indemnifying party, 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 10.5 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 10.5 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 10.5; 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 sold 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 1933 Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation 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 pursuant to such registration statement..

 

10.6.           Delivery of Unlegended Shares.

 

(a)           Within five (5) business days (such third business day being the “Unlegended Shares Delivery Date”) after the business day on which the Company has received (i) a notice that Conversion Shares, Warrant Shares or any other Common Stock held by a Subscriber have been sold 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 and if required, 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, if required, 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 legend set forth in Section 3(a) above (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 submitted Shares certificate, 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.

 

(b)           In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Unlegended Shares, upon request of 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 the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system, if such transfer agent participates in such DWAC 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 later than 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 10.2 for an aggregate of thirty days, then each Subscriber or assignee holding Securities subject to such default may, at its option, require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Shares subject to such default at a price per share equal to the greater of (i) 120%, or (ii) a fraction in which the numerator is the highest closing price of the Common Stock during the aforedescribed thirty day period and the denominator of which is the lowest conversion price during such thirty day period, multiplied by the price paid by Subscriber for such Common Stock (“Unlegended Redemption Amount”).  The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand.

(d)           In the event a Subscriber shall request delivery of Unlegended Shares as described in Section 10.6 and the Company is required to deliver such Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 10.7, 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 shall have been sought and obtained by the Company and the Company has posted a surety bond for the benefit of such Subscriber in the amount of 120% of the amount of the aggregate purchase price of the Common Stock 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.

(e)            In addition to any other rights available to Subscriber, if the Company fails to deliver to a Subscriber Unlegended Shares as required pursuant to this Agreement and after the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date, the Subscriber or a broker on the Subscriber’s behalf, 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 was entitled to receive 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.

 

 

10.7.           Commencing six months after the Closing Date and ending thirty-six  months thereafter, in the event the Subscriber is not permitted to resell any of the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares without any restrictive legend or if such sales are permitted but subject to volume limitations or further restrictions on resale as a result of the unavailability to non-affiliate Subscribers of Rule 144(b)(1)(i) under the 1933 Act or any successor rule (a “144 Default”), for any reason including but not limited to failure by the Company to file quarterly, annual or any other filings by the required filing dates, except for Subscriber’s status as an Affiliate or “control person” of the Company, or as a result of a change in current applicable securities laws, then the Company shall pay such Subscriber as liquidated damages and not as a penalty an amount equal to two percent (2%) for each thirty days (or such lesser pro-rata amount for any period less than thirty days), thereafter of the purchase price of the Conversion Shares and Shares by the Subscriber during the pendency of the 144 Default.  Liquidated Damages shall not be payable pursuant to this Section 10.8 in connection with Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares for such times as such Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares may be sold by the holder thereof without volume or other restrictions  pursuant to Section 144(b)(1)(i) of the 1933 Act or pursuant to an effective registration statement.

11.           (a)           Right of First Refusal.   Until the Notes are no longer outstanding, the Subscribers shall be given not less than five business days prior written notice of any proposed sale by the Company of its common stock or other securities or equity linked debt obligations, except in connection with (i) full or partial consideration in connection with a strategic merger, acquisition, consolidation or purchase of substantially all of the securities or assets of corporation or other entity which holders of such securities or debt are not at any time granted registration rights, (ii) the Company’s issuance of securities in connection with strategic license agreements and other partnering arrangements so long as such issuances are not for the purpose of raising capital and which holders of such securities or debt are not at any time granted registration rights, (iii) the Company’s issuance of Common Stock or the issuances or grants of options to purchase Common Stock to employees, directors, and consultants, pursuant to plans described on Schedule 5(d) as such plans are constituted on the Closing Date, (iv) securities upon the exercise or exchange of or conversion of any securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date of this Agreement and described on Schedule 5(d), and (v) as a result of the exercise of Warrants or conversion of Notes which are granted or issued pursuant to this Agreement (collectively the foregoing are “Excepted Issuances”).  The Subscribers who exercise their rights pursuant to this Section 11(a) shall have the right during the ten business days following receipt of the notice to purchase in the aggregate 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 Notes 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 ten business days following the notice of modification to exercise such right.

 

(b)           Favored Nations Provision.   Other than in connection with Excepted Issuances, if at any time the Subscriber owns any Common Stock from the conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants, the Company shall agree to or issue (the “Lower Price Issuance”) any Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock (or modify any of the foregoing which may be outstanding) to any person or entity at a price per share or conversion or exercise price per share which shall be less than the Conversion Price in effect at such time, or if less than any Warrant exercise price in effect at such time, without the consent of the Subscriber, then the Company shall issue, for each such occasion, additional shares of Common Stock to the Subscriber respecting those Conversion Shares and Warrants Shares that are then still owned by the Subscriber at the time of the Lower Price Issuance so that the average per share purchase price of the Shares or Warrant Shares purchased and owned by the Subscriber on the date of the Lower Price Issuance is equal to such other lower price per share.  Other than in connection with Excepted Issuances, if at any time the Notes or Warrants are outstanding, if the Company shall agree to a Lower Price Issuance, then the Conversion Price and any Warrant exercise price shall automatically be reduced to such other lower price.  The average Purchase Price of the Conversion Shares and average exercise price in relation to the Warrant Shares shall be calculated separately for the Shares and Warrant Shares.  The delivery to 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.  Subscriber is granted the registration rights described in Section 11 hereof in connection with such 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 sooner of the agreement to or actual issuance of such convertible security, warrant, right or option and again at any time 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 Conversion Price or any Warrant exercise price in effect upon such issuance.  Common Stock issued or issuable by the Company for no consideration or for consideration that cannot be determined at the time of issue will be deemed issuable or to have been issued for $0.001 per share of Common Stock.  The rights of Subscriber set forth in this Section 11 are in addition to any other rights the Subscriber has pursuant to this Agreement, the Note, any Transaction Document, and any other agreement referred to or entered into in connection herewith or to which Subscriber and Company are parties.

 

 

(c)           Maximum Exercise of Rights.   In the event the exercise of the rights described in Sections 11(a) and 11(b) would or could result in the issuance of an amount of Common Stock of the Company that would exceed the maximum amount that may be issued to Subscribers calculated in the manner described in Section 7.3 of this Agreement, then the issuance of such additional shares of Common Stock of the Company to 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 applicable maximum amount set forth calculated in the manner described in Section 7.3 of this Agreement and notifies the Company accordingly.
