3.1     Authorization. Series B Investor has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement. This Agreement, when executed and delivered by Series B Investor, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of Series B Investor, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, and any other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights

 

 

 

generally, and as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies.

 

3.2     Violation and Default.

 

(a) The execution, delivery and performance by Series B Investor of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby by Series B Investor will not result in any violation or be in conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of time and/or giving of notice, a default under any provision of Series B Investor’s organizational documents (if applicable) or any judgment, order, writ, decree or contract or federal or state statute, rule or regulation.

 

(b) The execution, delivery and performance by Series B Investor of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby by Series B Investor will not, with or without the passage of time and/or giving of notice, violate or constitute a breach of or a default under any agreement, contract, instrument, note, indenture, mortgage or lease to which Series B Investor is a party or by which Series B Investor is bound or constitute an event which results in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any assets of Series B Investor.

 

3.3     Purchase Entirely for Own Account. This Agreement is made with Series B Investor in reliance upon Series B Investor’s representation to the Corporation, which by Series B Investor’s execution of this Agreement Series B Investor hereby confirms, that the Securities to be acquired by Series B Investor will be acquired for investment for Series B Investor’s own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and that Series B Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, Series B Investor further represents that it does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of the Securities.

 

3.4     Disclosure of Information. Series B Investor believes it has received all information it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to purchase the Securities. Series B Investor further represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Corporation regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the Stock and the business, properties, prospects and financial condition of the Corporation. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the representations and warranties of the Corporation in Section 2 of this Agreement or the right of Series B Investor to rely on such representations and warranties.

 

3.5     Restricted Securities. Series B Investor understands that the Securities will be characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws, inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Corporation in a transaction not involving a public offering, and that under such laws and applicable regulations such Securities may not be resold without registration under the Securities Act, except in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, Series B Investor represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as presently in effect, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act. Series B Investor acknowledges that the Corporation has no obligation to register or qualify the Securities for resale. Series B Investor further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the Securities, and on requirements relating to the Corporation

Series B Investor is familiar with the Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and understands that although it has some similarity to this Agreement, and although the Series A Certificate of Designation has some similarity to the Series B Certificate of Designation, in fact the Series B Preferred Stock is in some ways materially inferior to the rights of the Series A Preferred Stock and in addition the investors under the Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement are obtaining substantially greater rights and other securities (e.g., through the Transaction Agreements, as defined in the Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement) than the Series B Investor is obtaining under this Agreement – even though the investors under the Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement are paying the same price per share of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to the Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement as the Series B Investor is paying per share of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to this Agreement.

 

3.8     Legends. Series B Investor understands that the Securities and any securities issued in respect of or exchange for the Securities, may bear one or all of the following legends:

 

(a) “THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE AFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.”

 

(b) Any legend set forth in or required by any other section of this Agreement.

3.11   No General Solicitation. Neither Series B Investor, nor any of its officers, employees, agents, directors, stockholders or partners has engaged the services of a broker,

 

 

 

investment banker or finder to contact any potential investor nor has Series B Investor or any of Series B Investor’s officers, employees, agents, directors, stockholders or partners, agreed to pay any commission, fee or other remuneration to any third party to solicit or contact any potential investor.

(a) Indemnification of Series B Investor, Etc. Subject to this Section 7, the Corporation agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Series B Investor and its affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, managers, employees and agents (each a “Series B Investor Indemnitee”) from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, judgments, liabilities, settlements, penalties, fines, costs and expenses (collectively, “Losses”) (i) payable to third parties, incurred by Series B Investor Indemnitees in connection with any and all suits, actions, investigations, claims or demands of a third party (collectively, “Third Party Claims”), or (ii) incurred by Series B Investor directly, in either case relating to or arising from (x) the Corporation’s breach of this Agreement, including without limitation any of its covenants, representations and warranties set forth herein; (y) any breach or violation of any applicable law by the Corporation or its affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents, in connection with the activities contemplated by this Agreement; or (z) the willful misconduct of the Corporation or its affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, managers, employees or agents; and for each of subsections (x)-(z), all except to the extent that such Losses are primarily caused by a Series B Investor Indemnitee’s breach of applicable law, breach of this Agreement, or willful misconduct.

The party or other Indemnitee intending to claim indemnification under this Section 7.1 (an “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any Third Party Claim in respect of which the Indemnified Party intends to claim such indemnification (provided, that no delay or deficiency on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability or obligation under this Agreement except to the extent the Indemnifying Party has suffered actual prejudice directly caused by the delay or other deficiency), and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof (with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party) whether or not such Third Party Claim is rightfully brought; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel and participate in the defense thereof, with the fees and expenses to (unless the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense or unless a representation of both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to the actual or potential differing interests between them, in which case the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party) be paid at its own expense. Provided, that in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be required to pay for more than one separate counsel no matter the number or circumstances of all Indemnified Parties.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent Series B Investor had actual knowledge as of the time of the execution and delivery of this Agreement of any breach or failure to be true as of the date hereof of any representation or warranty made by the Corporation under Section 2 of this Agreement, then no Series B Investor Indemnitee may bring a claim for indemnification for any Losses under this Section

 

 

 

7 (or any claim for any other right or remedy) arising out of such breach or failure to be true (to the extent of the known breach or failure to be true, including magnitude thereof).

 

(h) Mitigation. Following the Closing, each Series B Investor Indemnitee shall take all commercially reasonable actions to mitigate all Losses incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by it or any Series B Investor Indemnitee that it controls upon becoming aware of any fact, event or circumstance that has resulted in, or would reasonably be expected to give rise to, any such Loss. The Series B Investor Indemnitees shall cooperate with the Corporation and each other with respect to resolving any claim or liability underlying any Loss with respect to which an Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify any Series B Investor Indemnitee hereunder, including by making commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate or resolve any such claim or liability.

8.11   Severability. This Agreement is severable. When possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law;

 

 

 

but if any provision of this Agreement is determined by a final and binding court or arbitration judgment to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable to any extent, such provision shall not be affected or impaired up to the limits of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability; the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected or impaired in any way; and the parties agree to negotiate in good faith to replace such invalid, illegal and unenforceable provision (or portion of provision) with a valid, legal and enforceable provision that achieves, to the greatest lawful extent under this Agreement, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision (or portion of provision).

 

8.12   Further Assurances. The parties hereby covenant and agree without the necessity of any further consideration, to execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such other documents and instruments and take any such other action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement.

 

8.13   Interpretation. The language used in this Agreement is the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted for or against either party because that party or its attorney drafted the provision. When a reference is made in this Agreement to an Article or Section, such reference shall be to an Article or Section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”. The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. The words “date hereof” shall refer to the date of this Agreement. The word “or” shall not be exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and shall not simply mean “if”. All references to “$” mean the lawful currency of the United States of America. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Except as specifically stated herein, any agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such agreement, instrument or statute as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. Except as otherwise specified herein, references to a Person are also to its successors and permitted assigns.

 

8.14   Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party under this Agreement, upon any breach or default of any other party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such non-breaching or non-defaulting party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.

 

 

 

8.15   No Commitment for Additional Financing. The Corporation acknowledges and agrees that no Series B Investor party has made any representation, undertaking, commitment or agreement to provide or assist the Corporation in obtaining any financing, investment or other assistance, other than the purchase of the Stock as set forth herein and subject to the conditions set forth herein.  In addition, the Corporation acknowledges and agrees that (i) no statements, whether written or oral, made by any Series B Investor or its representatives on or after the date of this Agreement shall create an obligation, commitment or agreement to provide or assist the Corporation in obtaining any financing or investment, (ii) the Corporation shall not rely on any such statement by any Series B Investor or its representatives, and (iii) an obligation, commitment or agreement to provide or assist the Corporation in obtaining any financing or investment may only be created by a written agreement, signed by a Series B Investor and the Corporation, setting forth the terms and conditions of such financing or investment and stating that the parties intend for such writing to be a binding obligation or agreement.  Each Series B Investor party shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to refuse or decline to participate in any other financing of or investment in the Corporation, and shall have no obligation to assist or cooperate with the Corporation in obtaining any financing, investment or other assistance.

 

8.16   Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the documents referred to herein constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and any and all other prior or contemporaneous commitments, understandings and agreements, written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof are expressly superseded; provided, however, for avoidance of doubt, each nondisclosure/nonuse letter agreement between or among the Corporation and any or all Series B Investor persons is not superseded and remains in full force and effect. Each party disclaims any reliance on any representation, warranty, promise, commitment, arrangement or understanding not set forth expressly in this Agreement.   Each party has made no promises, representations, warranties, covenants, or undertakings, other than those expressly set forth herein, to induce the other party to execute or authorize the execution of this Agreement, and each party acknowledges that it has not executed or authorized the execution of this Agreement in reliance upon any such promise, representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking not expressly contained herein.

 

8.17   Corporate Securities Law. THE SALE OF THE SECURITIES WHICH ARE THE SUBJECT OF THIS AGREEMENT HAS NOT BEEN QUALIFIED WITH THE COMMISSIONER OF CORPORATIONS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THE ISSUANCE OF THE SECURITIES OR THE PAYMENT OR RECEIPT OF ANY PART OF THE CONSIDERATION THEREFOR BEFORE THE QUALIFICATION IS UNLAWFUL, UNLESS THE SALE OF SECURITIES IS EXEMPT FROM THE QUALIFICATION BY SECTION 25100, 25102 OR 25105 OF THE CALIFORNIA CORPORATIONS CODE.
