None of Mind Solutions, Parent, Merger Sub, or any of the Mind Solutions Stockholder , shall knowingly or intentionally take any action, or omit to take any action, if such action or omission would, or reasonably might be expected to, result in any of its representations and warranties set forth herein being or becoming untrue in any material respect, or in any of the conditions to the Merger set forth in this Agreement not being satisfied, or delay the Effective Time or (unless such action is required by Applicable Law) which would have a Material Adverse Effect on the ability of Mind Solutions or Parent to obtain any Consents required for the consummation of the Merger without imposition of a condition or restriction which would have a Material Adverse Effect on the Surviving Corporation or which would otherwise materially impair the ability of Mind Solutions or Parent to consummate the Merger in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or materially delay such consummation.

For a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time, Parent will cause the Surviving Company and Parent to use commercially reasonable efforts to secure directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering those persons who are or were officers and directors of Parent and Mind Solutions.
Anti-Dilution Covenant.
(a) For a period of one (1) year following the Effective Time, Mind Solutions and Parent, jointly and severally, shall protect all holders of Parent Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time and their successors in interest (“Pre-Merger Parent Stockholders”) from dilution. The Pre-Merger Parent Stockholders hold 47,031,098 shares of Parent Common Stock. Following the Merger, the Pre-Merger Parent Stockholders will hold 47,031,098 shares out of 243,031,098 total issued shares of Parent Common Stock. The Pre-Merger Parent Stockholders will hold 19.3519% of all issued shares of Parent Common Stock immediately following the Merger. This 19.3519% ratio (the “Pre-Merger Parent Stockholders Ratio”) shall be protected against dilution as follows:
(i) Issuance of Additional Stock for Stock Splits, Stock Dividends, Recapitalizations, Etc. The Pre-Merger Parent Stockholders shall be issued additional shares of Parent Common Stock or other securities issued, adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar event affecting the number of outstanding shares of stock or other securities of Parent, in order to maintain the Pre-Merger Parent Stockholders Ratio.
(ii) Issuance of Additional Stock in Event of Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, Etc. In case of any consolidation or merger of the Parent with or into any other Person, or any other corporate reorganization, in which the Parent shall not be the continuing or surviving entity of such consolidation, merger or reorganization (any such transaction being hereinafter referred to as a "Reorganization”) then, in each case, the Pre-Merger Parent Stockholders at the time of the consummation or such Reorganization shall be issued additional shares of Parent Common Stock in order to maintain the Pre-Merger Parent Stockholders Ratio.
(41) |
(iii) Issuance of Additional Stock in Event of Any Other Issuance of Authorized but Unissued Parent Common Stock. In case of any other issuance of authorized but unissued Parent Common Stock, whether to any existing shareholders or to an additional shareholder or shareholders, and whether value is received by the Parent or any of its subsidiaries or not, in each case, at the time of any other issuance of authorized but unissued Parent Common Stock, the Pre-Merger Parent Stockholders shall be issued additional shares of Parent Common Stock in order to maintain the Pre-Merger Parent Stockholders Ratio.
(iv) Certificate as to Adjustments. In case of the occurrence of any of the events in Sections 8.14(a)(i), (ii), or (iii) above, the Parent will promptly give written notice thereof to the Pre-Merger Parent Stockholders in the form of a certificate, certified and confirmed by the Board of Directors of Parent, setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.
(v) Reverse Splits Prohibited; Issuance of Authorized but Unissued Parent Common Stock or Parent Preferred Stock in Order to Acquire Mind Technologies, Inc. Prohibited. In addition to and not in limitation of the anti-dilution covenants contained in this Section 8.14(a) above, Parent is prohibited from undertaking any capital transaction within the one year anti-dilution covenant period which is a reverse split of Parent Common Stock or Parent Preferred Stock. By way of example only, Parent is prohibited from reverse splitting Parent Common Stock so that one share of Parent Common Stock is issued for ten shares of Parent Common Stock, thereby reducing the capitalization of Parent to 24,303,109.8 shares of Parent Common Stock issued and outstanding. Parent is further prohibited during the one year anti-dilution covenant period from issuing authorized but unissued Parent Common Stock or authorized but unissued Parent Preferred Stock in order for Parent to purchase all or any portion of Mind Technologies, Inc., or merge into or with Mind Technologies, Inc.
(vi) No Issuance of Preferred Stock. In addition to and not in limitation of the anti-dilution covenants contained in this Section 8.14(a) above, Parent is prohibited from undertaking any capital transaction within the one year anti-dilution covenant period in which Parent Preferred Stock is issued, or any Amendment is filed with the Florida Secretary of State amending the Parent Articles of Incorporation in order to define rights, preferences or designations of any classes or series of Parent Preferred Stock, and no certificate of designation therefor, or an equivalent document, may be filed during the one year anti-dilution covenant period.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing Section 8.14(a), the parties to this Agreement agree that the provisions of this Section 8.14(a) do not apply in the event that Parent issues shares of Parent’s Common Stock in one or more private offerings undertaken pursuant to one or more claims to the exemptions to the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act, as amended, provided that each said issuance (i) is undertaken in an arms-length transaction, (ii) upon terms that reasonably reflect the fair market value of the Parent’s Common Stock issued thereunder, and (iii) the Person or Persons to whom Parent Common Stock are issued are not Mind Solutions, any of the former shareholders of Mind Solutions or their affiliates, any of the shareholders in the Mind Solutions Stockholder or their affiliates, or any of the shareholders in Mind Technologies, Inc. or their affiliates, or any of the officers or directors of any of the Persons excluded under Section 8.14(b).
