2.10.         No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.

 

2.11.         Remedies. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Buyer by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Agreement will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Agreement, that the Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies at law or in equity, and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or injunctions restraining, preventing or curing any breach of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

 

 

2.12.         Buyer’s Rights and Remedies Cumulative.  All rights, remedies, and powers conferred in this Agreement and the Transaction Documents on the Buyer are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies, and shall be in addition to every other right, power, and remedy that the Buyer may have, whether specifically granted in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or existing at law, in equity, or by statute; and any and all such rights and remedies may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as the Buyer may deem expedient.

 

2.13.         Prohibition of Short Sales and Hedging Transactions. Buyer represents and warrants to Company that at no time will any of the Buyer, its agents, representatives or affiliates engage in or effect, in any manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly, any action designed to manipulate, or cause or result in de-stabilization of the stock price of the Company, or engage in a (i) "short sale" (as such term is defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO of the Exchange Act) of the Common Stock or (ii) hedging transaction, which establishes a net short position with respect to the Common Stock and will not engage in any such short sales, or any activities which could be categorized as manipulation during the term of this Agreement and the Note.

 

2.14.         Attorneys’ Fees and Cost of Collection. In the event of any action at law or in equity to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, the parties agree that the party who is awarded the most money shall be deemed the prevailing party for all purposes and shall therefore be entitled to an additional award of the full amount of the attorneys’ fees and expenses  paid by such prevailing party in connection with the litigation and/or dispute without reduction or apportionment based upon the individual claims or defenses  giving rise to the fees and expenses.  Nothing herein shall restrict or impair a court’s power to award fees and expenses for frivolous or bad faith pleading.

 

2.15.         Accredited Investor. Buyer acknowledges, the Inducement Shares will be issued per the information provided by Buyer in Exhibit B and will bear a standard restriction legend precluding re-sale into public markets, except in connection with a Registration by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”), or pursuant to an exemption from such Registration. Buyer represents and warrants that he is either an “Accredited Person”, as that term is defined under the Securities Act of 1933 and applicable regulations thereunder, or otherwise have sufficient experience, education and business knowledge such that he can fend for himself in making a reasoned investment decision to accept the Shares, and the Company is able therefore to issue the shares in a valid private placement under Section 4(2) of the Act
