Nothing contained herein shall be deemed a representation or warranty by such Purchaser to hold the Shares for any period of time.
3.10 Experience of such Purchaser.

COVENANTS OF THE PARTIES

Each Purchaser covenants that the Shares will only be sold, offered for sale, pledged, loaned, or otherwise disposed of pursuant to an effective registration statement under, and in compliance with the requirements of, the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in compliance with any applicable state securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Shares other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144, the Company may require such Purchaser to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by such Purchaser, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration under the Securities Act.
4.2 Indemnification.
(a) To the full extent permitted by applicable law and applicable Delaware public policy, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless such Purchaser, and their respective directors, officers, stockholders, members, partners, employees and agents (and any other persons with a functionally equivalent role of a person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), each person who controls such Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, stockholders, agents, members, partners or employees (and any other persons with a functionally equivalent role of a person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling person (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”), from and against all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, costs, fees and expenses whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation commenced or threatened by a Person (other than a Purchaser Indemnitee)) based upon or arising out of (x) the inaccuracy or the Company’s breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in the Transaction Documents or (y) the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent and only to the extent that any such loss, liability, claim, damage, cost, fee or expense arises out of or is based upon (i) the inaccuracy of any representations made by such indemnified party in the Transaction Documents, (ii) the failure of such indemnified party to comply with the covenants and agreements contained herein or (iii) the gross negligence, illegal acts, fraud or willful misconduct of any Purchaser Indemnitee.
15 |
(b) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 4.2 of notice of the commencement of any indemnifiable action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 4.2, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 4.2 except to the extent the indemnified party is actually prejudiced by such omission. In case any such indemnifiable action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein, and to the extent that it may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such indemnifiable action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and either (i) the indemnifying party or parties and the indemnified party or parties mutually agree or (ii) representation of both the indemnifying party or parties and the indemnified party or parties by the same counsel is inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct due to actual or potential differing interests between them, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such indemnifiable action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties, and the indemnifying party shall be responsible for payment of reasonable legal expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the indemnified party in connection with such separate counsel. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense of such indemnifiable action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 4.2 for any reasonable legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed counsel in connection with the assumption of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of more than one separate counsel in such circumstance), (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the indemnifiable action or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party shall (i) without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened indemnifiable action in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such indemnifiable action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent requires only the payment of money damages, does not subject the indemnified party to any continuing obligation or require any admission of criminal or civil responsibility, and includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such indemnifiable action, or (ii) be liable for any settlement of any such indemnifiable action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with its written consent or if there be a final judgment of the plaintiff in any such indemnifiable action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.
(c) Each Purchaser acknowledges on behalf of itself and each Purchaser Indemnitee that, other than for actions seeking specific performance of the obligations under this Agreement or in the case of intentional fraud with respect to the making of the representations and warranties by the Company in Article II, the sole and exclusive remedy of such Purchaser and such Purchaser Indemnitee with respect to any and all claims relating to this Agreement shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Section 4.2.

The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to resolve all Commission comments with respect to the S-1 as promptly as reasonably practicable after receipt thereof and to have the S-1 cleared by the staff of the Commission as promptly as reasonably practicable after such filing. The Company shall make any necessary filings with respect to effectuating the Rights Offering under the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.
(b) Each Purchaser, on behalf of itself and all its respective Affiliates (including Alta Fundamental Advisers LLC and its Affiliates) (collectively the “Excluded Alta Parties”), hereby irrevocably acknowledges and agrees that each of the Excluded Alta Parties has no right or entitlement to, and hereby waives any right any of the Excluded Alta Parties may have as a holder of securities of the Company or otherwise to, receive any right in the Rights Offering or purchase shares of Common Stock in the Rights Offering. To the extent any of the Excluded Alta Parties who is not a party to this Agreement directly or indirectly owns, holds or controls any securities of the Company as of the record date for the Rights Offering each Purchaser will cause each of such Excluded Alta Parties to confirm such an acknowledgment, agreement and waiver in a signed agreement with the Company. The acknowledgement, agreement and waiver in the first sentence of this Section 4.3(b), together with any additional acknowledgment, agreement and waiver contemplated by the prior sentence, are referred to herein collectively as the “Alta Rights Offering Acknowledgment.”
(c) The Company shall obtain the consent of the Purchasers before upsizing the Rights Offering above $25,000,000.
4.4 Use of Proceeds. The Company will use the proceeds from the sale of the Shares for working capital and general corporate purposes, including repayment of indebtedness.
4.5 Listing. Until such time as the Shares are no longer held by any Purchaser, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid the delisting or suspension of the Common Stock on Nasdaq.
4.6 Reporting Status. Until the date on which the Purchaser shall have sold all of the Shares, the Company shall timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act, and the Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the Exchange Act.

6.15 Remedies. Each Purchaser shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have under any law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law. Furthermore, the Company recognizes that in the event that it fails to perform, observe, or discharge any or all of its obligations under the Transaction Documents, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Purchasers. The Company therefore agrees that the Purchasers shall be entitled to seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security.
6.16 Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Purchaser and Third-Party Purchaser under any Transaction Document and Third-Party Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser or Third-Party Purchaser, and no Purchaser or Third-Party Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser or Third-Party Purchaser under any Transaction Document or Third-Party Agreement. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document or Third-Party Agreement, and no action taken by any Purchaser or Third-Party Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers and Third-Party Purchasers as, and the Company acknowledges that the Purchasers and Third-Party Purchasers do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers and Third-Party Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group, and the Company shall not assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and Third-Party Agreements, and the Company acknowledges that the Purchasers and Third-Party Purchasers are not acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and Third-Party Agreements. The Company acknowledges and each Purchaser and Third-Party Purchaser confirms that it has independently participated in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby and thereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each Purchaser and Third-Party Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents or Third-Party Agreements, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser or Third-Party Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
