4.1 Reliance on Exemptions. The Holder understands that the Series A Preferred Stock are being offered and exchanged in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Holder’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Holder set forth herein and in the other Exchange Documents in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Holder to acquire the Series A Preferred Stock.
4.2 No Governmental Review. The Holder understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Series A Preferred Stock or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Series A Preferred Stock nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Series A Preferred Stock.
4.3 Validity; Enforcement. This Agreement and the other Exchange Documents to which the Holder is a party have been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of the Holder and shall constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Holder enforceable against the Holder in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies.
4.4 No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by the Holder of this Agreement and the other Exchange Documents to which the Holder is a party, and the
5
consummation by the Holder of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents of the Holder or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Holder is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws) applicable to the Holder, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such conflicts, defaults, rights or violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Holder to perform its obligations hereunder.
4.5 Investment Risk; Sophistication. The Holder is acquiring the Series A Preferred Stock hereunder in the ordinary course of its business. The Holder has such knowledge, sophistication, and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluation of the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Series A Preferred Stock, and has so evaluated the merits and risk of such investment.

4.6 Ownership of Exchange Warrant. The Holder owns the Exchange Warrant free and clear of any Liens (other than the obligations pursuant to this Agreement, the Transaction Documents and applicable securities laws) and has the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and each of the other Exchange Documents to which it is a party and to consummate the Transaction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Series A Preferred Stock may be pledged in connection with a bona fide margin account or other loan or financing arrangement secured by the Series A Preferred Stock and such pledge of Series A Preferred Stock shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Series A Preferred Stock hereunder, and the Holder effecting a pledge of Series A Preferred Stock shall not be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any other Exchange Document, including, without limitation, this Section 4.7.

All proceedings in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and all documents and instruments incident to such transactions shall be satisfactory in substance and form to the Company and the Company shall have received all such counterpart originals or certified or other copies of such documents as the Company may reasonably request.

The Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to each Investor, a register for the Series A Preferred Stock in which the Company shall record the name and address of the Person in whose name the Series A Preferred Stock has been issued (including the name and
8
address of each transferee), and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock held by such Person. The Company shall keep the register open and available at all times during business hours for inspection of the Investor or its legal representatives.
(b) Transfer Agent Instructions.

Any fees (with respect to the Transfer Agent, counsel to the Company or otherwise) associated with the issuance of such opinions or the removal of any legends on any of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be borne by the Company.
(a) On or before 9:00 a.m., New York time, on the first (1st) Business Day after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall file a Current Report on Form 8-K describing all the material terms of the transactions contemplated by the Exchange Documents in the form required by the Exchange Act and attaching this Agreement (including all attachments, the “8-K Filing”).

(b) Except as may be required by the Securities Purchase Agreement or the Series A Preferred Stock, the Company shall not, and the Company shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and each of its and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents not to, provide the Holder with any material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from and after the date hereof without the express prior written consent of the Holder (which may be granted or withheld in the Holder’s sole discretion). To the extent that the Company delivers any material, non-public information to the Holder without the Holder’s consent, other than as required by the Securities Purchase Agreement or the Series A Preferred Stock, the Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Holder shall not have any duty of confidentiality with respect to such material, non-public information.
