11.1. Default Interest. A default interest rate of twenty five percent (25%) per annum, calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year, shall accrue against any unpaid Obligations.
11.2. Acceleration. The full Obligations, including all fees, accrued interest, costs, expenses and charges, shall become immediately due and payable without notice or demand.
11.3. Costs and Expenses of Collection. Borrowers shall be responsible for all costs incurred by Lender in the collection of the Obligations, including costs and expenses related to the exercise of liens and security interests and execution on the Collateral, attorney fees, Lender’s fees, and court costs, if any.
11.4. Remedies. Lender shall have the right to pursue any and all available legal and equitable remedies for the collection of the Obligations and all fees, interest and penalties due and payable, including but not limited to the following:
11.4.1. Lender may, at its option, sell the Collateral to a third party and/or take judgment on the Note. Borrowers expressly waive any rights of presentment, demand, protest, or notice of any kind, notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary herein. Following a Default, Lender may immediately proceed to take full possession or control of and resell the Collateral. Borrowers shall be liable for any costs associated with any removal, control, sale, repair, refurbishment or maintenance completed in preparation for or in connection with a sale pursuant to this Section, which shall be in addition to all other Obligations owed.
11.4.2. Lender may retain the Collateral, exercise control over the Collateral, or transfer the Collateral to Lender’s name and ownership.
11.4.3. Borrowers grant Lender the absolute right through its own employees or other agent to enter Borrowers premises and do all things necessary to secure or remove the Collateral.
11.4.4. Borrowers grant Lender the absolute right through its own employees or other agents to employ Borrowers personnel in taking any actions with respect to Borrowers property until such time as Lender has achieved recovery of the Obligations.
11.4.5. Borrowers acknowledge their duty of full cooperation with Lender’s employees and agents, and will instruct its employees regarding same. Further, in the event that additional documentation is needed to accomplish the sale of the Collateral to a third party, Borrowers appoints and authorizes Lender to execute such documents on behalf of Borrowers.
13
11.4.6. Borrowers authorize any agent duly appointed by Lender to sell the Collateral to a third party, and Borrowers shall hold Lender or such person or entity harmless for any liability with respect to such sale.
11.4.7. Lender may take action with respect to and foreclose upon all liens and security interests granted to Lender hereunder or under the Financing Documents, until such time as Lender has achieved recovery of the Obligations. Borrowers shall be liable for any costs incurred in connection with any exercise of a lien or security interest or foreclosure, which shall be in addition to all other Obligations.
11.4.8. Any remedies available under the commercial codes of Nevada, California or Ohio.
11.4.9. Lender may take any other action or remedy available to Lender pursuant to this Agreement or the Financing Documents.
Following the exercise of any of the foregoing remedies, after the satisfaction of all Obligations owed to Lender, any amounts received by Lender in excess of the Obligations shall be delivered to Borrowers or to the order unanimously directed by Borrowers. In the event of any sale of Collateral to a third party, Lender may deduct the Obligations owed to Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any associated agreements, all costs and expenses associated with the removal and sale of the Collateral, including those costs, if any, incurred in repairing, restoring or transporting the Collateral. In the event that the proceeds from sale to a third party are less than the total Obligations, the proceeds from the sale to a third party shall be credited against such aforementioned amounts, but Borrowers would remain liable for any unpaid or unsatisfied amounts. The persons and entities that compose Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable to Lender for the Obligations and subject to all remedies available to Lender under the Financing Documents. Any remedy available to Lender pursuant to any of Financing Documents shall, to the extent not prohibited by law, be available to Lender with respect to all such agreements and documents.
12. Cure Period. Prior to Lender exercising any of its rights and remedies pursuant Section 11 , except in the case of a Default arising from the failure to pay any Obligations when due (such failure being, a “Payment Default” and any other material default or breach being, a “Non-Payment Default”), Borrowers shall have a reasonable opportunity to cure any such Non-Payment Default for a period of thirty (30) days after receiving notice of the relevant Non-Payment Default from Lender, or such longer period as may be agreed to by Lender (the “Cure Period”), prior to Lender having the right to exercise any remedies hereunder; provided, that Borrowers shall promptly advise the Lender of the actions the Borrower proposes to take to cure such any such Non-Payment Default. Subject to Section 15, Borrowers shall not be entitled to any Cure Period for any Payment Default.
13. PRESENTMENT. BORROWERS AND ALL PERSONS NOW OR HEREAFTER LIABLE FOR THE PAYMENT OF THE OBLIGATIONS, INCLUDING INTERESTS, COSTS, CHARGES, EXPENSES, FEES OR ANY OTHER AMOUNTS DUE ON THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY PART THEREOF, HEREBY (I) EXPRESSLY WAIVE PRESENTMENT FOR PAYMENT, NOTICE OF DISHONOR, PROTEST AND NOTICE OF PROTEST, AND (II) AGREE THAT THE TIME FOR THE PAYMENT OR PAYMENTS OF ANY PART OF THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE EXTENDED WITHOUT RELEASING OR OTHERWISE AFFECTING THEIR LIABILITY ON THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY LIEN, SECURITY INTEREST OR MORTGAGE SECURING THIS AGREEMENT.
14
14. JUDGMENT. SUBJECT TO SECTION 12, IF THE OBLIGATION EVIDENCED HEREBY, OR ANY PART THEREOF, BECOMES DUE AND IS UNPAID, THE UNDERSIGNED, AND EACH OF THEM, HEREBY (I) AUTHORIZES ANY ATTORNEY AT LAW TO APPEAR IN ANY COURT OF RECORD IN ANY COUNTY IN THE STATE OF OHIO, OR ELSEWHERE, WHERE ANY OF THE UNDERSIGNED RESIDES, SIGNED THIS NOTE, OR CAN BE FOUND, (II) WAIVES, AND AUTHORIZES ANY ATTORNEY AT LAW TO WAIVE, THE ISSUANCE AND SERVICE OF PROCESS, (III) CONFESSES, AND AUTHORIZES ANY ATTORNEY AT LAW TO CONFESS, JUDGMENT AGAINST ANY OR ALL OF THE UNDERSIGNED IN FAVOR OF THE LENDER OR OTHER HOLDER OF THIS NOTE FOR THE AMOUNT THEN APPEARING DUE, TOGETHER WITH THE COSTS OF SUIT, AND (IV) WAIVES AND RELEASES, AND AUTHORIZES ANY ATTORNEY AT LAW TO WAIVE AND RELEASE, ANY ERRORS OR RIGHT OF APPEAL OR STAY OF EXECUTION. NO JUDGMENT OR JUDGMENTS AGAINST LESS THAN ALL OF THE UNDERSIGNED SHALL BE A BAR TO ANY SUBSEQUENT JUDGMENT AGAINST THOSE OF THE UNDERSIGNED AGAINST WHOM JUDGMENT HAS NOT BEEN TAKEN.
15. RIGHT OF BORROWERS TO CURE DEFAULT. IN THE EVENT THAT BORROWERS ARE IN DEFAULT HEREUNDER, BORROWERS MAY CURE THE DEFAULT IF, WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS OF SAID DEFAULT, BORROWERS PAY TO LENDER ONE HUNDRED TEN PERCENT (110%) OF THE OBLIGATIONS TOGETHER WITH ALL OTHER COSTS, CHARGES, FEES AND EXPENSES, IF ANY, DUE UNDER THE FINANCING DOCUMENTS.
16. Conversion. Lender shall have the right at any time within thirty (30) days after the Due Date or Borrowers’ delivery of a Prepayment Notice, to deliver to Borrowers’ written notice (a “Conversion Notice”) of Lender’s election to convert all or a portion of the Obligations into Common Stock of SDINC in accordance with the terms of the Note and the below terms of this Section 15. Capitalized terms used in this Section 15 but not defined in this Section 15 shall have the meaning assigned to such terms in the Warrant. Common Stock shares issuable upon conversion of the Obligations pursuant to the terms hereof and of the Note are referred to as the “Conversion Shares.”
16.1. Mechanics of Delivery. On or before the first (1st) Trading Day following the date on which SDINC has received a Conversion Notice, SDINC shall transmit by facsimile an acknowledgment of confirmation of receipt of the Conversion Notice to the Lender and SDINC’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”). On or before the third (3rd) Trading Day following the date on which SDINC has received all of the Conversion Notice (the “Share Delivery Date”), SDINC shall (X) provided that the Transfer Agent is participating in The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, upon the request of the Lender, credit such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which the Lender is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the Lender’s or its designee’s balance account with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system, or (Y) if the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program, issue and deliver to the Lender or, at Lender’s instruction pursuant to the Conversion Notice, Lender’s agent or designee, in each case, sent by reputable overnight courier to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate, registered in the SDINC share register in the name of the Lender or its designee (as indicated in the Conversion Notice), for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Lender is entitled pursuant to such exercise. Upon delivery of the Conversion Notice, the Lender shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Conversion Shares with respect to which conversion pursuant to this Section 15 and the Note (“Conversion”) has been exercised, irrespective of the date such Conversion Shares are credited to the Lender’s DTC account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Conversion Shares (as the case may be). No fractional shares of Common Stock are to be issued Conversion, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. SDINC shall pay any and all taxes which may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Conversion Shares upon Conversion.
15
16.2. Conversion Price. The “Conversion Price” for the conversion of the Obligations hereunder into the Conversion Shares shall be $0.37, subject to adjustment as provided herein.
16.3. Number of Conversion Shares Issuable. The number of shares of Common Stock into which the Obligations shall be convertible shall be determined by dividing (i) the outstanding Obligations and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, by (ii) the Conversion Price.
16.4. SDINC’s Failure to Timely Deliver Securities. If SDINC shall fail, for any reason or for no reason, other than as the result of any action or failure to act by Lender, to issue to the Lender within three (3) Trading Days of receipt of the Conversion Notice, a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Lender is entitled and register such shares of Common Stock on SDINC’s share register or to credit the Lender’s balance account with DTC for such number of shares of Common Stock to which the Lender is entitled upon the Lender’s Conversion hereunder, then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Lender, SDINC shall pay in cash to the Lender on each day after such third (3rd) Trading Day that the issuance of such shares of Common Stock is not timely effected an amount equal to 2% of the product of (A) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock not issued to the Lender on a timely basis and to which the Lender is entitled and (B) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the last possible date which SDINC could have issued such shares of Common Stock to the Lender without violating Section 15.1. In addition to the foregoing, if within three (3) Trading Days after SDINC’s receipt of the facsimile copy of an Conversion Notice, SDINC shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate to the Lender and register such shares of Common Stock on SDINC’s share register or credit the Lender’s balance account with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Lender is entitled upon such Lender’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be), and if on or after such third (3rd) Trading Day the Lender purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Lender of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise that the Lender anticipated receiving from SDINC (a “Buy-In”), then SDINC shall, within three (3) Business Days after the Lender’s request and in the Lender’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Lender in an amount equal to the Lender’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point SDINC’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Lender a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock or credit the Lender’s balance account with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Lender is entitled upon such Lender’s exercise hereunder (as the case may be) and pay cash to the Lender in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock times (B) the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the Conversion Notice.
16
16.5. Insufficient Authorized Shares. SDINC shall at all relevant times keep reserved for issuance under this Agreement and the Note a number of shares of Common Stock as shall be necessary to satisfy SDINC’s obligation to issue shares of Common Stock hereunder (without regard to any limitation otherwise contained herein with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock that may be acquirable upon Conversion). If, notwithstanding the foregoing, and not in limitation thereof, at any time while any of this Agreement or the Note remains outstanding SDINC does not have a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of Common Stock to satisfy its obligation to reserve for issuance upon exercise of the Conversion at least a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be necessary to effect the issuance of all of the Conversion Shares (the “Required Reserve Amount”) (an “Authorized Share Failure”), then SDINC shall immediately take all action necessary to increase SDINC’s authorized shares of Common Stock to an amount sufficient to allow SDINC to reserve the Required Reserve Amount for all the Conversion Shares. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, SDINC shall hold a meeting of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, SDINC shall provide each stockholder with a proxy statement, or information statement if applicable, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit its stockholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its board of directors to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal.
16.6. Adjustments.
16.6.1. Stock Dividends and Splits. If SDINC, at any time on or after the date of the date of issuance, (i) pays a stock dividend on one or more classes of its then outstanding shares of Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its then outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares or (iii) combines (by combination, reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its then outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this paragraph occurs during the period that a Conversion Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Conversion Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.
17
16.6.2. Adjustment Upon Issuance of Shares of Common Stock. Excepting Exempted Issuances (as defined below), if and whenever from and after the Issuance date but prior to Conversion, the SDINC issues or sells, or in accordance with this Section 15.6 is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock (including the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock owned or held by or for the account of the SDINC) for a consideration per share (the “New Issuance Price”) less than a price equal to the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale or deemed issuance or sale (such lesser price being referred to as the “Applicable Price”) (the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”), then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Conversion Price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the New Issuance Price. For purposes of determining the adjusted Conversion Price under this Section 15.6.2, the following shall be applicable:
(i) Issuance of Options. If SDINC in any manner grants or sells any Options and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Option or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option is less than the Applicable Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by SDINC at the time of the granting or sale of such Option for such price per share. For purposes of this Section 15.6.2(i), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the exercise of any such Options or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities issuable upon exercise of any such Option” shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by SDINC with respect to any one share of Common Stock upon the granting or sale of the Option, upon exercise of the Option and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Security issuable upon exercise of such Option. Except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock or of such Convertible Securities upon the exercise of such Options or upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities.
(ii) Issuance of Convertible Securities. If SDINC in any manner issues or sells any Convertible Securities and the lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof is less than the Applicable Price, then such share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be outstanding and to have been issued and sold by SDINC at the time of the issuance or sale of such Convertible Securities for such price per share. For the purposes of this Section 15.6.2(ii), the “lowest price per share for which one share of Common Stock is issuable upon the conversion, exercise or exchange thereof” shall be equal to the sum of the lowest amounts of consideration (if any) received or receivable by SDINC with respect to one share of Common Stock upon the issuance or sale of the Convertible Security and upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Security. Except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made upon the actual issuance of such shares of Common Stock upon conversion, exercise or exchange of such Convertible Securities, and if any such issue or sale of such Convertible Securities is made upon exercise of any Options for which adjustment of this Agreement has been or is to be made pursuant to other provisions of this Section 15.6.2(ii), except as contemplated below, no further adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made by reason of such issue or sale.
18
(iii) Change in Option Price or Rate of Conversion. If the purchase or exercise price provided for in any Options, the additional consideration, if any, payable upon the issue, conversion, exercise or exchange of any Convertible Securities, or the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock increases or decreases at any time, the Conversion Price in effect at the time of such increase or decrease shall be adjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities provided for such increased or decreased purchase price, additional consideration or increased or decreased conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold. For purposes of this Section 15.6.2(iii), if the terms of any Option or Convertible Security that was outstanding as of the date of issuance of this Agreement are increased or decreased in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence, then such Option or Convertible Security and the shares of Common Stock deemed issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued as of the date of such increase or decrease. No adjustment pursuant to this Section 15.6.2(iii) shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Conversion Price then in effect.
(iv) Calculation of Consideration Received. In case any Option is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other securities of SDINC, together comprising one integrated transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated to such Options by the parties thereto, the Options will be deemed to have been issued for the difference of (i) the aggregate fair market value of such Options and other securities issued or sold in such integrated transaction, less (ii) the fair market value of the securities other than such Option, issued or sold in such transaction and the other securities issued or sold in such integrated transaction will be deemed to have been issued or sold for the balance of the consideration received by SDINC. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be deemed to be the net amount received by SDINC therefor. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by SDINC will be the fair value of such consideration, except where such consideration consists of publicly traded securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by SDINC for such securities will be the average VWAP of such security for the five (5) Trading Day period immediately preceding the date of receipt. If any shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which SDINC is the surviving entity, the amount of consideration therefor will be deemed to be the fair value of such portion of the net assets and business of the non-surviving entity as is attributable to such shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, as the case may be. The fair value of any consideration other than cash or publicly traded securities will be determined jointly by SDINC and the Lender. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “Valuation Event”), the fair value of such consideration will be determined within five (5) Trading Days after the tenth (10th) day following such Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser jointly selected by SDINC and the Lender. The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon all parties absent manifest error and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne by SDINC.
19
(v) Record Date. If SDINC takes a record of the holders of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them (A) to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock, Options or in Convertible Securities or (B) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities, then such record date will be deemed to be the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued or sold upon the declaration of such dividend or the making of such other distribution or the date of the granting of such right of subscription or purchase (as the case may be).
16.6.3. Other Events. In the event that SDINC (or any direct or indirect subsidiary thereof) shall take any action to which the provisions hereof are not strictly applicable, or, if applicable, would not operate to protect the Lender in accordance with the intentions of Sections 15.6.1 or 15.6.2 or from dilution, or if any event occurs of the type contemplated by the provisions of this Section 15.6 but not expressly provided for by such provisions (including, without limitation, the granting of stock appreciation rights, phantom stock rights or other rights with equity features), then SDINC’s Board of Directors shall in good faith determine and implement an appropriate adjustment in the Conversion Price so as to protect the rights of the Lender; provided that no such adjustment pursuant to this Section 15.6.2 will increase the Conversion Price or decrease the number of Conversion Shares as otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 15, provided further that if the Lender does not accept such adjustments as appropriately protecting its interests hereunder against such dilution, then SDINC’s Board of Directors and the Lender shall agree, in good faith, upon an independent investment bank of nationally recognized standing to make such appropriate adjustments, whose determination shall be final and binding and whose fees and expenses shall be borne by SDINC.
16.6.4. Calculations. All calculations under this Section 15 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as applicable. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of SDINC, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.
20
16.7. Exempted Issuances. For purposes hereof, “Exempted Issuances” shall mean (A) shares of Common Stock issued or deemed to have been issued by SDINC pursuant to an Approved Stock Plan (as defined below) outstanding on the date hereof; (B) shares of common stock issued or deemed to have been issued by SDINC pursuant to this Agreement or the Warrant; (C) shares of common stock issued or deemed to have been issued upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of any Option or Convertible Security outstanding on the date hereof, provided that the terms of such option or convertible security are not amended or otherwise modified on or after such date, and provided that the conversion price, exchange price, exercise price or other purchase price is not reduced, adjusted or otherwise modified and the number of shares issued or issuable is not increased (whether by operation of, or in accordance with, the relevant governing documents or otherwise) on or after the date hereof; (D) shares issued or deemed to have been issued by SDINC upon conversion of the Note; and (E) securities issued pursuant to the acquisition of another entity by either Borrower that is approved by Lender, by merger, purchase of all or substantially all of the assets of such entity or other transaction whereby such Borrower shall become directly or indirectly the owner of more than 25% of the aggregate voting power of all classes of the voting securities of such other entity; provided that the foregoing provision does not provide Lender with the right to prevent or approve any acquisition or merger, and any such Lender approval shall only determine whether such acquisition or merger is an Exempted Issuance. Further for purposes hereof, “Approved Stock Plan” shall mean any stock incentive plan that has been approved by the board of directors and stockholders of SDINC, pursuant to which the SDINC’s Common Stock may be issued to any employees or consultants that are not founders, officers or their affiliates, for services provided to SDINC, which Approved Stock Plan shall not permit the granting of securities that would constitute greater than ten percent (10%) of the outstanding capital stock of Company as of the date hereof.
16.8. Incorporation of Stock Warrant Provisions. The rights and protections of Lender set forth in Sections 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8 of the Warrant are included and incorporated herein by this reference with the provisions applicable to the Warrant Shares being applicable to the Conversion Shares, and (a) all references to the Warrant being deemed to be references to this Agreement and the Note, (b) all references to the Conversion Price being deemed to be references to the Conversion Price, and (c) such other appropriate substitutions of corresponding terms as is evident from the language hereof and thereof.
This Agreement and the Financing Documents shall continue in full force and effect with respect to any of the Obligations that are not converted pursuant to the foregoing provisions and the provisions of the Note. At the time of any Conversion pursuant to the above, SDINC shall provide standard representations and warranties comparable to those set forth herein or as deemed appropriate by Lender pursuant to a standard and customary stock purchase agreement.
17. Legal Fees and Expenses. Borrowers shall be solely responsible for all legal, professional and out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred or charged in connection with the Financing Documents, which fees and expenses shall, at the option of Lender, either be paid out of the closing proceeds or be added to the Obligations as of the Closing; provided, however, that, except as set forth in the next sentence, Borrowers shall not be responsible for any legal, professional or other fees and expenses relating to the Additional Financing in the event that the Additional Financing is not consummated. The legal fee for the due diligence of the Financing, preparation of the Financing Documents and monitoring of the Financing during the term is estimated to be Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000). The fees and expenses payable by Borrowers hereunder shall not exceed Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000).
21
18. Acknowledgments. Lender acknowledges that Lender is an accredited investor. LENDER AND BORROWERS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS IS NOT A CONSUMER TRANSACTION OR FINANCING.
19. Ohio Law Applies. This Agreement and all Financing Documents shall be construed in accordance with, and governed in all respects by, the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to its conflicts of laws rules, except with respect to the laws that apply to the perfection and enforcement of the security interests in the Collateral, in which case the laws of the states in which the Collateral is located shall govern.
