Re: Satisfaction of our outstanding invoices
Dear Mr. Hamilton:
This letter sets forth our understanding of the terms upon which Lighting Science Group Corporation (“LSG”) has agreed to satisfy payment of our outstanding invoices in the amount of $2,799,665.18 (the “Amount Due”) for services rendered to LSG during August–December, 2008, pursuant to the invoices itemized in Exhibit A attached hereto.
You have advised us that LSG has through action of its board of directors authorized creation of a series C preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”) having the rights and preferences set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto, and a warrant to purchase shares of common stock of LSG (the “Warrant”) in the form set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto. The Preferred Stock and Warrant will be issued today and we will be the record holder of the Preferred Stock and Warrant effective today. On or about January 5, 2009 LSG will deliver to our firm a stock certificate representing 219,582 shares of the Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”) and the Warrant. You will cause Haynes and Boone, LLP, counsel for LSG, to deliver to our firm at the time of the issuance of the Preferred Shares and Warrant its opinion (subject to customary qualifications and assumptions), addressed to our Firm and dated the date hereof, that LSG is validly existing as a Delaware corporation, the Preferred Shares have been duly authorized and issued, and are fully paid and non-assessable, and the Warrant has been duly authorized.
LSG confirms that (1) it will not register the Preferred Stock under section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and (2) it has received independent counsel with respect to the transaction contemplated by this letter. We confirm that we are acquiring the Preferred Stock and Warrant for our own account for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution of the Preferred Stock or Warrant (including the shares of Common stock underlying the Warrant), except pursuant to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
