(a) The Shares sold hereunder have been duly authorized by the appropriate corporate action of the Company.
 
(b) The Company shall transfer title, in and to the Shares to the Seller free and clear of any and all Encumbrances, whether direct or indirect or contingent.
 
SECTION 6.8. Company Reports; Financial Statements.
 
(a) Company has filed all reports required to be filed by it under the Act and the Exchange Act, including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) thereof, for the twelve months preceding the date hereof (or such shorter period as the Company was required by law to file such reports) (the foregoing materials being collectively referred to herein as the “Company SEC Documents”) on a timely basis or has timely filed a valid extension of such time of filing and has filed any such Company SEC Documents prior to the expiration of any such extension.  As of their respective dates, the Company SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) promulgated thereunder, and none of the Company SEC Documents, when filed, 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.  The financial statements of Company included in the Company SEC Documents (together with the related notes and schedules thereto, collectively, the “Company Financial Statements”) comply in all material respects with the rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto as in effect at the time of filing.  Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States applied on a consistent basis during the period involved (“GAAP”), except as may be otherwise specified in such financial statements or the notes thereto and except that unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP, and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company as of and for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal, immaterial, year-end audit adjustments.
 
(b) Company is in compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes”) currently applicable to Company.  Company maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to Company, including its subsidiaries, is made known to the certifying officers by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which Company’s most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act, as the case may be, is being prepared.  Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of Company’s controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by the most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act (such date, the “Evaluation Date”).  Company presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date.  Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in Company’s internal controls (as such term is defined in Item 308 of Regulation S-K) or, to Company’s knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect Company’s internal controls.  Company maintains and will continue to maintain a standard system of accounting established and administered in accordance with GAAP and the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act.

Seller has one employee as identified on Schedule 6.9. At the Closing, this employee will become an employee at will of Buyer, subject to the employee’s consent, and receive at least the same compensation and benefits as the employee currently receives at Seller or, in the alternative, Buyer will pay the employee’s monthly premiums for COBRA coverage, less the monthly amount currently deducted from the employee’s compensation for medical and dental benefits until Buyer has employee benefit plans providing comparable coverage for the employee as she currently has. This does not constitute an employment agreement with the employee, nor is she a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII.
 
CERTAIN COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS OF BUYER
 
SECTION 8.1. Books and Records.
 
Buyer will preserve all books and records included within the Purchased Assets for applicable periods of time as required by law, and will make such books and records available for inspection and copying by Seller or its agents upon reasonable request and upon reasonable notice.
 
SECTION 8.2. Bulk Transfer Laws.
 
Buyer hereby waives compliance by Seller with the provisions of any so-called “bulk transfer law” of any jurisdiction in connection with the sale of the Purchased Assets to Buyer and releases Seller from any Liabilities in connection therewith as Buyer is assuming all Liabilities not specifically excluded.
 
SECTION 8.3. Response to Medical Inquiries and Products Complaints.
 
After the Closing, Buyer will assume all responsibility for responding to any medical inquiries or complaints about the Products in the Territory.
 
SECTION 8.4. Required Registration Statement.
 
(a) Company hereby agrees with the Seller that:
 
(i)  
The Company shall file or cause to be filed, no later than four (4) months after the Closing Date (the “Filing Deadline”), a registration statement under the Act (a “Registration Statement”), to permit the liquidation of Seller and distribution by Seller of the Shares, together with any shares of capital stock issued or issuable, from time to time, upon any reclassification, share combination, share subdivision, stock split, share dividend or similar transaction or event or otherwise as a distribution on, in exchange for or with respect to any of the foregoing (the “Registrable Securities”).
 
(ii)  
The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement referred to in clause (i) above to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than seven (7) months after the Closing Date or five (5) business days after the SEC shall have informed the Company that no review of the Registration Statement will be made or that the SEC has no further comments on the Registration Statement, whichever is earlier (the “Effectiveness Deadline”) and shall cause such Registration Statement to remain effective until such time as all Registrable Securities have been sold or are otherwise freely tradable without registration under the Act (the “Expiration Date”). If a Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities is not filed with the SEC on or prior to the Filing Deadline, or not effective with the SEC prior to the Effectiveness Deadline, the Company will make payments to Seller, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, in an amount equal to 1.0% of the aggregate Purchase Price paid to the Seller under this Agreement for each thirty (30)-day period or pro rata for any portion thereof following the Filing Deadline or Effectiveness Deadline, as applicable, for which no Registration Statement is filed with respect to the Registrable Securities; provided that in no event shall the aggregate liquidated damages paid pursuant to this Section 8.4(b) exceed 5.0% of the aggregate Purchase Price paid to the Seller under this Agreement. Such payments shall constitute the Seller’s exclusive monetary remedy for such events, but shall not affect the right of the Seller to seek injunctive relief. Such payments shall be made to Seller in cash or shares of capital stock of the same class as the Shares no later than five (5) business days after the end of each thirty (30)-day period, at Company’s option. Any such additional shares shall be included in the Registration Statement and as part of the Shares. Company  understands that an effective registration statement is required to enable Seller to complete the liquidation. Company’s registration obligation may be accomplished by an earlier filed registration statement that has the same effect with respect to the distribution of the Shares as part of the liquidation as the Registration Statement would have and provided that such distribution is made in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Seller.
 
 
18

 
(b) In connection with the foregoing, Company will:
 
(i)  
Prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement with respect to the Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become and remain effective.
 
(ii)  
Prepare and file with the SEC 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 and to comply with the provisions of the Act with respect to the sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities whenever the Seller of such securities shall desire to sell the same.
 
(iii)  
Furnish to the Seller such number of copies of a summary prospectus or other prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Act, and such other documents, as the Seller may reasonably request in order to facilitate the sale of the Registrable Securities owned by the Seller.
 
(iv)  
Register or qualify the Registrable Securities under applicable blue sky laws, and do such other reasonable acts and things as may be required in jurisdictions to which such blue sky laws apply; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to file any general consent to service of process or qualify as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction.
 
 
19

 
 
(v)  
Furnish at the request of the Seller, on the date that the Registration Statement with respect to the Registrable Securities becomes effective, an opinion, dated as of such date, of the independent counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, addressed to the Seller stating that such Registration Statement has become effective under the Act and that, to the best knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending the effectiveness thereof has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or contemplated under the Act.
 
(vi)  
Use reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and, if such an order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal thereof at the earliest possible time and to notify the Seller of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof.
 
(vii)  
Furnish to the Seller, two trading days after the date that any Registration Statement becomes effective or after a stop order has been lifted, a letter, dated such date, of outside counsel representing the Company, addressed to the Seller, confirming the effectiveness of such Registration Statement and, to the knowledge of such counsel, the absence of any stop order.
 
(viii)  
Provide to the Seller and its representatives, if requested, the opportunity to conduct a reasonable inquiry of the Company’s financial and other records during normal business hours and make available its officers, directors and employees for questions regarding information which the Seller may reasonably request in order to fulfill any due diligence obligation on its part; provided that in the case of this clause (viii), the Company shall not be required to provide, and shall not provide, the Seller with material, non-public information unless the Seller agrees to receive such information and enters into an agreement to keep such material, nonpublic information confidential and refrain from trading in any Company security for so long as such information remains material, nonpublic information.
 
(c) All of the expenses incurred in complying with the foregoing, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees (including all expenses incident to filing with the FINRA), printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, expenses of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration and expenses of complying with the securities or blue sky laws of any jurisdictions, but excluding brokerage or underwriting fees or commissions, shall be paid by the Company.
 
(d) The Company shall furnish to the Seller, not less than three (3) days prior to the filing of a Registration Statement or any related prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto (including any document that would be incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference), copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review of the Seller. The Company shall reflect in each such document when so filed with the SEC such comments relating to the Seller and its plan of distribution of the Registrable Securities as the Seller may reasonable propose.
 
(e) (i) Each document filed or to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act and incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement complied or will comply when so filed in all material respects with the Exchange Act, (ii) each part of each Registration Statement, when such part shall become effective, will not contain, and each such part, as amended or supplemented, if applicable, will 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 not misleading, (iii) each Registration Statement will 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 not misleading, (iv) each Registration Statement and prospectus, as may be amended or supplemented, will comply in all material respects with the Act, and (v) each prospectus, as may be amended or supplemented, will not, at the time of each sale of the Shares by the Seller, contain 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, except that the representations and warranties set forth in this paragraph will not apply to statements or omissions in any Registration Statement or prospectus based upon information relating to the Seller furnished to the Company in writing by the Seller expressly for use therein.
 
 
20

 
SECTION 8.5. Cooperation on Taxes.
 
Buyer and Company, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, will cooperate in good faith for the purpose of maximizing the value of any tax loss carryforward amounts that could be available to Buyer or Company after the Closing. Neither party will knowingly take any actions that adversely affect the tax consequences of the other without the other party’s consent.
 
SECTION 8.6. Further Actions.
 
Following the Closing Date, Buyer and Company will use commercially reasonable efforts (i) to take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary, proper or advisable to satisfy the conditions to closing in order to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) to obtain any consents, licenses, permits, waivers, approvals, authorizations or orders required to be obtained or made in connection with the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Furthermore, to the extent necessary following the Closing Date, Buyer and Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all further actions necessary, proper or advisable in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
