No registration statement shall be required to be filed by the Company for the Units issued pursuant to this Agreement, or for the shares of Preferred Stock or Warrants that are contained in the Units; or for the Common Stock into which the Preferred Stock is convertible or the Warrants are exercisable.
8. Observer Rights; Right to Nominate Board Member. The Company will afford the Purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to designate up to three non-voting observers (Observers) to attend meetings of the Board of Directors. Such right shall commence on the date of this Agreement and survive as long as Purchaser owns any Preferred Stock, but in no event shall this right exceed five years from the date of this Agreement. The Company may, upon unanimous vote of the Board, reject an observer, but only if such observer is consistently disruptive to board meetings or if such observer does not meet applicable state law standards or requirements of any exchange that the Companys stock is traded on that apply to all directors. In the event the Board rejects an observer, the Purchaser may select another observer as a replacement. Six months after the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall have the right, but not the obligation, to recommend one of the Observers (the Nominee) to be a member of the Companys Board of Directors, and, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, the Companys Board of Directors shall elect the Nominee to the board to serve a term of two years. After the two-year term, the Board of Directors may nominate the Nominee to be elected by the shareholders at the annual shareholder meeting in the same manner as any other director.
-11-
The Observers, if any, will receive notice in the same manner as any other Director of each meeting of the Board of Directors. The Board is under no obligation to schedule meetings to accommodate the schedule of an Observer. Should an Observer be unable to attend a meeting, the meeting shall commence nonetheless. Upon written notice to the Purchaser, the Company may exclude the Observers from meetings where, in the written opinion of counsel for the Company, the Observers presence would destroy the attorney-client privilege. Additionally, beginning six months after the Closing Date, the Company shall have the right to exclude Observers from a meeting of the Board of Directors by a majority vote of the Directors and a written opinion of the Companys counsel that it is appropriate for the Board to exclude Observers from the meeting. Such exclusion privilege shall not be abused by the Company or the Board of Directors and should the O bservers and/or the Nominee believe that such privilege is not being exercised in good faith, a mutually agreed neutral outside advisor shall be retained to resolve the matter. The cost of the neutral outside advisor, if any, shall be borne by the Company and Purchaser equally. The Company will not be obligated to pay the Observers any compensation or reimburse them for any of the expenses necessary to attend or participate in meetings.
9.
Right of First Refusal. For a period of thirty-six (36) months from the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall have the right of first refusal to participate in any private offering of the Companys securities, including subscription rights, on the same terms as offered to other potential investors, and purchase such securities up to an offering price of $5 million. The Company will provide the Purchaser with any proposed term sheet in writing. The Purchaser must reply to the Company of its intention to exercise its right of first refusal within three business days in writing. If the Purchaser does not so notify the Company, the Purchaser will be deemed to have elected not to exercise the right of first refusal. The Company shall make a reasonable effort to give the Purchaser the right of first refusal to any public offering of the Companys securities; however, upon the Company engaging an underwriter to participate in the fi nancing, the right of first refusal is extinguished.
10.
