(d)           Acquisition for Investment. The Subscriber is acquiring the Debentures solely for its own account for the purpose of investment and not with a view to or for resale in connection with a distribution.  The Subscriber does not have a present intention to sell the Debentures, nor a present arrangement (whether or not legally binding) or intention to effect any distribution of the Debentures to or through any person or entity.  The Subscriber acknowledges that it is able to bear the financial risks associated with an investment in the Debentures and that it has been given full access to such records of the Company and the subsidiaries and to the officers of the Company and the subsidiaries and received such information as it has deemed necessary or appropriate to conduct its due diligence investigation and has sufficient knowledge and experience in investing in companies similar to the Company in terms of the Company’s stage of development so as to be able to evaluate the risks and merits of its investment in the Company.  The Subscriber further acknowledges that the Subscriber understands the risks of investing in development stage companies and that the purchase of the Debentures involves substantial risks.

(e)           Information on Company.    Such Subscriber has been furnished with or has had access to the EDGAR Website of the Commission and to the Company’s filings made with the Commission available at the EDGAR website (hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Reports”).  In addition, such Subscriber has received in writing from the Company such other information concerning its operations, financial condition and other matters as such Subscriber has requested in writing, identified thereon as OTHER WRITTEN INFORMATION (such other information is collectively, the “Other Written Information”), and considered all factors such Subscriber deems material in deciding on the advisability of investing in the Debentures.  Such Subscriber has relied on the Reports and Other Written Information in making its investment decision.

(f)           Opportunities for Additional Information.  The Subscriber acknowledges that the Subscriber has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from, or obtain additional information from, the executive officers of the Company concerning the financial and other affairs of the Company.

(h)           Compliance with 1933 Act.   Such Subscriber understands and agrees that the Debentures have not been registered under the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities laws, by reason of their issuance in a transaction that does not require registration under the 1933 Act (based in part on the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Subscriber contained herein), and that such Debentures must be held indefinitely unless a subsequent disposition is registered under the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from such registration.  The Subscriber acknowledges that the Subscriber is familiar with Rule 144 of the rules and regulations of the Commission, as amended, promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), and that such person has been advised that Rule 144 permits resales only under certain circumstances. The Subscriber understands that to the extent that Rule 144 is not available, the Subscriber will be unable to sell any Debentures without either registration under the 1933 Act or the existence of another exemption from such registration requirement.

(i)           Debentures Legend.  The Debentures shall bear the following or similar legend:

“THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, NOR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.  THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE SELECTED BY THE HOLDER), IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR  PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT, OR OTHERWISE.  NOTWITHSTANDING.”

 

 (j)   Communication of Offer.  The offer to sell the Debentures was directly communicated to such Subscriber by the Company.  At no time was such Subscriber presented with or solicited by any leaflet, newspaper or magazine article, radio or television advertisement, or any other form of general advertising or solicited or invited to attend a promotional meeting otherwise than in connection and concurrently with such communicated offer.

 

(k)           Restricted Securities.   Such Subscriber understands that the Debentures have not been registered under the 1933 Act and such Subscriber will not sell, offer to sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise transfer any of the Debentures unless pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, or unless an exemption from registration is available.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, such Subscriber may transfer (without restriction and without the need for an opinion of counsel) the Debentures to its Affiliates (as defined below) provided that each such Affiliate is an “accredited investor” under Regulation D and such Affiliate agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(n)           No Brokers.  Such Subscriber has taken any action which would give rise to any claim by any person for brokerage commissions, finder’s fees or similar payments relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Any such qualifications and filings will, in the case of qualifications, be effective on the Closing and will, in the case of filings, be made within the time prescribed by law.

 

(f)           No Violation or Conflict.  Assuming the representations and warranties of the Subscriber in Section 3 are true and correct, neither the issuance nor sale of the Debentures nor the performance of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement and all other Transaction Documents entered into by the Company relating thereto will:

 

(i)   violate, conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default (or an event which with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both would be reasonably likely to constitute a default) under (A) the articles or certificate of incorporation, charter or bylaws of the Company, or (B) to the Company’s knowledge, any decree, judgment, order, law, treaty, rule, regulation or determination applicable to the Company of any court, governmental agency or body, or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Company or over the properties or assets of the Company or any of its Affiliates; or

 

(ii)           result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon the Debentures or any of the assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

5.           Registration Rights.

 

(a)   Registration Statement Requirements.  The Company shall file with the Commission a Form S-1 registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) (or such other form that it is eligible to use) in order to register all or such portion of the Registrable Shares as permitted by the Commission (provided that the Company shall use diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Shares) pursuant to Rule 415 for resale and distribution under the 1933 Act as soon as practicable after the Closing Date, and use its reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective.  The Company will register not less than 100% of the Conversion Shares in the Registration Statement (the “Registrable Shares”).

 

   (b)           Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required by the provisions of Section 5(a) to effect the registration of any Registrable Shares under the 1933 Act, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:

 

(i)   prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement with respect to such securities and use it commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective for the period of the distribution contemplated thereby;

 

(ii)  prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective until such registration statement has been effective for the earlier of (a) a period of one (1) year, and (b) the date on which the Registrable Shares can been sold by the Subscriber pursuant to Rule 144 without volume restrictions;

 

 

(iii)  notify the Subscriber within twenty-four hours of the Company’s becoming aware that a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, of the happening of any event of which the Company has knowledge as a result of which the prospectus contained in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing or which becomes subject to a Commission, state or other governmental order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement covering any of the Registrable Shares. Each Subscriber hereby covenants that it will not sell any Registrable Shares pursuant to such prospectus during the period commencing at the time at which the Company gives such Subscriber notice of the suspension of the use of such prospectus and ending at the time the Company gives such Subscriber notice that such Subscriber may thereafter effect sales pursuant to the prospectus, or until the Company delivers to such Subscriber or files with the Commission an amended or supplemented prospectus.

 

(c)           Provision of Documents.  It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Shares of a particular Subscriber that such Subscriber shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and representation letters, including a completed form of the selling securityholder questionnaire, with respect to itself and the proposed distribution by it as the Company may reasonably request to assure compliance with federal and applicable state securities laws.

(i)  In the event of a registration of any Registrable Shares under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 5, the Company will, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Subscriber, each of the officers, directors, agents, Affiliates, members, managers, control persons, and principal shareholders of the Subscriber, each underwriter of such Registrable Shares thereunder and each other person, if any, who controls such Subscriber or underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Subscriber, or such underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which such Registrable Shares was registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 5, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances when made, and will subject to the provisions of Section 5(e)(iii) reimburse the Subscriber, each such underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to the Subscriber to the extent that any such damages arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus if (i) the Subscriber failed to send or deliver a copy of the final prospectus delivered by the Company to the Subscriber with or prior to the delivery of written confirmation of the sale by the Subscriber to the person asserting the claim from which such damages arise, and the final prospectus would have corrected such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or such omission or alleged omission, or (ii) to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished by any such Subscriber in writing specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus.

 

(ii)  In the event of a registration of any of the Registrable Shares under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 5, each Subscriber severally but not jointly will, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act, each officer of the Company who signs the registration statement, each director of the Company, each underwriter and each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such officer, director, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement under which such Registrable Shares were registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 5, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and each such officer, director, underwriter and controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, provided, however, that the Subscriber will be liable hereunder in any such case if and only to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information pertaining to such Subscriber, as such, furnished in writing to the Company by such Subscriber specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus.

 

(iii)  Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party other than under this Section 5(e)(iii) and shall only relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party under this Section 5(e)(iii), except and only if and to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 5(e)(iii) for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel so selected, provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnifying party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to indemnified party which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or if the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, the indemnified parties, as a group, shall have the right to select one separate counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified and indemnifying party, and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred.
