4.26         Internal Controls. Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.26, The Company is in material compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 currently applicable to the Company. The Company and the Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in 1934 Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including the Subsidiaries, is made known to the certifying officers by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which the Company’s most recently filed periodic report under the 1934 Act, as the case may be, is being prepared. The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by the most recently filed periodic report under the 1934 Act (such date, the “Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the 1934 Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls (as such term is defined in Item 308 of Regulation S-K), to the Company’s Knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect the Company’s internal controls. The Company maintains and will continue to maintain a standard system of accounting established and administered in accordance with GAAP and the applicable requirements of the 1934 Act.

 

4.27         Disclosures. Neither the Company nor, to the Company’s Knowledge, any Person acting on its behalf has provided the Investors or their agents or counsel with any information that constitutes or might constitute material, non-public information, other than the terms of the transactions contemplated hereby. The written materials delivered to the Investors in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

 

 

5.           Representations and Warranties of the Investors. Each of the Investors hereby severally, and not jointly, represents and warrants to the Company that:

5.2          Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance by such Investor of the Transaction Documents to which such Investor is a party have been duly authorized and each will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of such Investor, enforceable against such Investor in accordance with their respective terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability, relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally. No consent, approval, authorization, order, filing, registration or qualification of or with any court, government authority or third person is required to be obtained by such Investor in connection with the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents to which such Investor is a party or the performance of such Investor's obligations hereunder or thereunder.

 

5.3          Investment Representations.   Such Investor understands that the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act, under any state securities laws or under securities laws of any other jurisdiction. Such Investor also understands that the Securities are being offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration contained in the 1933 Act based in part upon such Investor’s representations contained in this Agreement. Such Investor hereby represents and warrants as follows:

 

5.3.1           Investment Experience. Such Investor has substantial experience in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities and is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the capacity to protect its own interests. Each Investor understands that such Investor's investment in the Securities being purchased by such Investor from the Company involves a high degree of risk. Such Investor understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities being purchased by the Investor from the Company.

 

5.3.2           General Solicitation. Such Investor is not purchasing the Securities as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding the Securities published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar or any other general solicitation or general advertisement.

 

 

5.3.3           Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Securities to be received by such Investor hereunder will be acquired for such Investor’s own account and not for the account of others or as nominee or agent, and not with a view to, or for, resale, distribution, syndication, or fractionalization thereof, and such Investor has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same in violation of the 1933 Act without prejudice, however, to such Investor’s right at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Securities in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed a representation or warranty by such Investor to hold the Securities for any period of time.

Such Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the 1933 Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Such Purchaser has been advised or is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act as in effect from time to time, which permits limited resale of securities purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including, among other things: the availability of certain current public information about the Company, the resale occurring following the required holding period under Rule 144 and the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations.

 

5.3.6           Non-U.S. Purchasers. If such Investor is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), such Investor has fully observed the laws of its jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Shares and Warrants or any use of this Agreement including, (a) the legal requirements within its jurisdiction for the acquisition of the Shares and Warrants, and any conversion shares (b) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such acquisition, and (c) any regulatory approval that may need to be obtained. Investor’s acquisition for and continued ownership of the Shares and Warrants and any conversion shares will not violate any applicable securities laws or other requirements of law of such Investor’s jurisdiction.

 

5.4           Disclosure of Information. Such Investor has had an opportunity to receive all information related to the Company requested by it and to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company regarding the Company, its business and the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities. Such Investor acknowledges receipt of copies of the SEC Filings. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigation conducted by such Investor shall modify, limit or otherwise affect such Investor’s right to rely on the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement.

 

5.5           No Public Market. Such Investor understands that no public market exists for the Shares or Warrants, and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Shares or Warrants.

5.8           Tax Advice. Such Investor has reviewed with such Investor’s own legal and tax advisors the tax consequences of such Investor’s acquisition of the Securities being acquired by such Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and the sale or other disposition of the Securities. Such Investor acknowledges that it is relying solely on such Investor’s own advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any other investor or of any of their respective affiliates or any of the respective representatives, agents or advisors of the Company or any other Investor or any of their respective affiliates with respect to such tax consequences. Such Investor shall solely be responsible for the tax consequences that may arise as a result of such Investor’s acquisition of the Securities being acquired by such Investor pursuant to this Agreement, the sale or other disposition of the Shares and performance of this Agreement.

 

5.9           Prohibited Transactions. Since the earlier of (a) such time as such Investor was first contacted by the Company or any other Person acting on behalf of the Company regarding the transactions contemplated hereby or (b) thirty (30) days prior to the date hereof, neither such Investor nor any Affiliate of such Investor which (x) had knowledge of the transactions contemplated hereby, (y) has or shares discretion relating to such Investor’s investments or trading or information concerning such Investor’s investments, including in respect of the Securities, or (z) is subject to such Investor’s review or input concerning such Affiliate’s investments or trading (collectively, “Trading Affiliates”) has, and/or in the future, directly or indirectly, effected or agreed to effect any short sale, whether or not against the box, established any “put equivalent position” (as defined in Rule 16a-1(h) under the 1934 Act) with respect to the Common Stock, granted any other right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to the Common Stock or with respect to any security that includes, relates to or derived any significant part of its value from the Common Stock or otherwise sought to hedge its position in the Securities (each, a “Prohibited Transaction”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Investor that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Investor’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Investor’s assets, the representation set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Securities covered by this Agreement. Other than to other Persons party to this Agreement, such Investor has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with the Contemplated Transactions (including the existence and terms of the Contemplated Transaction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty, or preclude any actions, with respect to the identification of the availability of, or securing of, available shares to borrow in order to effect any short sales or similar transactions in the future. Such Investor acknowledges that the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Section 5.9 are being made for the benefit of the Investors as well as the Company and that each of the other Investors shall have an independent right to assert any claims against such Investor arising out of any breach or violation of the provisions of this Section 5.9.

 

 

5.10         Limitation on Ownership. Investor understands that except as expressly provided in the Certificate of Designation and the Warrants, the Investor shall not be entitled to convert the Preferred Stock or exercise Warrants for Common Stock if such conversion or exercise would result in the Investor (together with the Investor’s affiliates) beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the outstanding Common Stock after giving effect to such conversion or exercise. The Investor may increase the ownership limitation percentage to 9.99% effective the 61st day after providing notice of such increase to the Company in writing.

From the date hereof until the Trigger Date, without the consent of the Requisite Holders (as defined in Section 9.6), the Company will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise dispose of (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition of) any of its or its Subsidiaries’ equity or equity equivalent securities, including without limitation any debt, preferred stock or other instrument or security that is, at any time during its life and under any circumstances, convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (any such offer, sale, grant, disposition or announcement being referred to as a “Subsequent Placement”).

(c)          From the Closing Date until the first anniversary of the Effective Date, the Company will not, directly or indirectly, effect any Subsequent Placement unless the Company shall have first complied with this Section 7.10.

 

(i)          The Company shall deliver to each Investor who purchased at least $200,000 of Shares hereunder, an irrevocable written notice (the ”Offer Notice”) of any proposed or intended issuance or sale or exchange (the ”Offer”) of the securities being offered (the “Offered Securities”) in a Subsequent Placement, which Offer Notice shall (w) identify and describe the Offered Securities, (x) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Offered Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (y) identify the persons or entities (if known) to which or with which the Offered Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged and (z) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with such Investors at least fifty percent (50%) of the Offered Securities, allocated among such Investors (a) based on such Investor’s pro rata portion of the aggregate principal amount of Units purchased hereunder (the “Basic Amount”), and (b) with respect to each Investor that elects to purchase its Basic Amount, any additional portion of the Offered Securities attributable to the Basic Amounts of other Investors as such Investor shall indicate it will purchase or acquire should the other Investors subscribe for less than their Basic Amounts (the “Undersubscription Amount”), which process shall be repeated until the Investors shall have an opportunity to subscribe for any remaining Undersubscription Amount.

 

 

(ii)         To accept an Offer, in whole or in part, such Investor must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the fifth (5^th) Business Day after such Investor’s receipt of the Offer Notice (the “Offer Period”), setting forth the portion of such Investor’s Basic Amount that such Investor elects to purchase and, if such Investor shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription Amount, if any, that such Investor elects to purchase (in either case, the “Notice of Acceptance”). If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Investors are less than the total of all of the Basic Amounts, then each Investor who has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, that if the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceed the difference between the total of all the Basic Amounts and the Basic Amounts subscribed for (the “Available Undersubscription Amount”), each Investor who has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall be entitled to purchase only that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Basic Amount of such Investor bears to the total Basic Amounts of all Investors that have subscribed for Undersubscription Amounts, subject to rounding by the Company to the extent its deems reasonably necessary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company desires to modify or amend the terms and conditions of the Offer prior to the expiration of the Offer Period, the Company may deliver to the Investors a new Offer Notice and the Offer Period shall expire on the third (3^rd) Business Day after such Investor’s receipt of such new Offer Notice.

 

(iii)        The Company shall have ten (10) Business Days from the expiration of the Offer Period above (i) to offer, issue, sell or exchange all or any part of such Offered Securities as to which a Notice of Acceptance has not been given by the Investors (the “Refused Securities”) pursuant to a definitive agreement(s) (the “Subsequent Placement Agreement”), but only to the offerees described in the Offer Notice (if so described therein) and only upon terms and conditions (including, without limitation, unit prices and interest rates) that are not more favorable to the acquiring person or persons or less favorable to the Company than those set forth in the Offer Notice and (ii) to publicly announce (a) the execution of such Subsequent Placement Agreement, and (b) either (x) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such Subsequent Placement Agreement or (y) the termination of such Subsequent Placement Agreement, which shall be filed with the SEC on a Current Report on Form 8-K with such Subsequent Placement Agreement and any documents contemplated therein filed as exhibits thereto.

 

(iv)        In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Refused Securities (any such sale to be in the manner and on the terms specified above, then each Investor may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, reduce the number or amount of the Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less than the number or amount of the Offered Securities that such Investor elected to purchase pursuant to Section 7.10(c)(ii) above multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue, sell or exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or sold to Investors pursuant to Section 7.10(c)(iii) above prior to such reduction) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the original amount of the Offered Securities. In the event that any Investor so elects to reduce the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced number or amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been offered to the Investors in accordance with Section 7.10(c)(i) above.

 

 

(v)         Upon the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Refused Securities, the Investors shall acquire from the Company, and the Company shall issue to the Investors, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in the Notices of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section 7.10(c)(iv) above if the Investors have so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if the Company does not consummate the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Refused Securities, within fifteen (15) Business Days of the expiration of the Offer Period, the Company shall issue to the Investors, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in the Notices of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section 7.10(c)(iv) above if the Investors have so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer. The purchase by the Investors of any Offered Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company and the Investors of a purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Investors and their respective counsel.

 

(vi)        Any Offered Securities not acquired by the Investors or other persons in accordance with Section 7.10(c)(iii) above may not be issued, sold or exchanged until they are again offered to the Investors under the procedures specified in this Agreement.

 

(vii)       The Company and the Investors agree that if any Investor elects to participate in the Offer, (x) neither the Subsequent Placement Agreement with respect to such Offer nor any other transaction documents related thereto (collectively, the “Subsequent Placement Documents”) shall include any term or provisions whereby any Investor shall be required to agree to any restrictions in trading as to any securities of the Company owned by such Investor prior to such Subsequent Placement, and (y) any registration rights set forth in such Subsequent Placement Documents shall be similar in all material respects to the registration rights contained in the Registration Rights Agreement.

 

(viii)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.10 and unless otherwise agreed to by the Investors, the Company shall either confirm in writing to the Investors that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Placement has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the Offered Securities, in either case in such a manner such that the Investors will not be in possession of material non-public information, by the fifteen (15^th) Business Day following delivery of the Offer Notice. If by the fifteen (15^th) following delivery of the Offer Notice no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Offered Securities has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by the Investors, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and the Investors shall not be deemed to be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company. Should the Company decide to pursue such transaction with respect to the Offered Securities, the Company shall provide each Investor with another Offer Notice and each Investor will again have the right of participation set forth in this Section 7.10. The Company shall not be permitted to deliver more than one such Offer Notice to the Investors in any sixty (60) day period.

 

 

(ix)         The restrictions contained in subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 7.10 shall not apply in connection with the issuance of any Excluded Securities.

 

7.11         No Reverse Stock Splits. During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the second anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Requisite Holders (as defined in Section 9.6), consummate or announce a reverse stock split with respect to its Common Stock.

 

8.          Survival and Indemnification.

 

8.1           Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

8.2           Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Investor and its Affiliates and the Placement Agent and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorney fees and disbursements and other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim or proceeding, pending or threatened and the costs of enforcement thereof) (collectively, “Losses”) to which such Person may become subject as a result of any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by or to be performed on the part of the Company under the Transaction Documents, and will reimburse any such Person for all such amounts as they are incurred by such Person; provided, however, that such indemnifiable Losses shall not exceed the amount representing such Investor’s pro rata portion of the Purchase Price as set forth on the signature pages to this Agreement.

 

 

8.3           Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such person unless (a) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses, or (b) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person or (c) in the reasonable judgment of any such person, based upon written advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between such person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such person); and provided, further, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall materially adversely affect the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or litigation. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties. No indemnifying party will, except with the consent of the indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation.

9.12         Independent Nature of Investors’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Investor under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Investor under any Transaction Document. The decision of each Investor to purchase Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Investor independently of any other Investor. Nothing contained herein or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Investor acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Investor will be acting as agent of such Investor in connection with monitoring its investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents. Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that each of the Investors has been provided with the same Transaction Documents for the purpose of closing a transaction with multiple Investors and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Investor.
