If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be delivered when deposited with the United States Postal Service, postage prepaid, addressed to the stockholder at the address as it appears on the share transfer records of the Corporation.

 

 
 

 

Section 6 .   Closing of Share Transfer Records and Fixing Record Dates . For the purpose of determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any distribution or share dividend, or in order to make a determination of stockholders for any other proper purpose, the Board of Directors of the Corporation may provide that the share transfer records shall be closed for a stated period but not to exceed, in any case, 60 days. If the share transfer records shall be closed for the purpose of determining stockholders, such records shall be closed for at least 10 days immediately preceding such meeting.

If the share transfer records are not closed and no record date is fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders, or stockholders entitled to receive payment of a distribution (other than a distribution involving a purchase or redemption by the Corporation of any of its own shares) or share dividend, the close of business on the day before the day on which the first notice thereof is given or the date on which the resolution of the Board of Directors declaring such distribution or share dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such determination of stockholders.

Such list shall also be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting and shall be subject to the inspection of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting. The original share transfer records shall be prima facie evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine such list or transfer records or to vote at any meeting of stockholders. Failure to comply with the requirements of this Section 7 shall not affect the validity of any action taken at such meeting.

 

Section 8 .   Quorum . A quorum shall be present at a meeting of stockholders if the holders of shares having a majority of the voting power represented by all issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote at the meeting are present in person or represented by proxy at such meeting, unless otherwise provided by the Corporation's Restated Articles of Incorporation in accordance with the Nevada Revised Statutes.

(b) Plurality Voting . Unless otherwise provided in the Corporation's Restated Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws in accordance with the Nevada Revised Statutes, directors of the Corporation shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of shares entitled to vote in the election of directors at a meeting of stockholders at which a quorum is present.

 

(c) Number of Votes; Cumulative Voting; Proxies .

Shares standing in the name of a trustee may be voted by the trustee, either in person or by proxy, but no trustee shall be entitled to vote shares held by the trustee without a transfer of such shares into the name of the trustee.

 

(f) Shares held by a Receiver . Shares standing in the name of a receiver may be voted by such receiver, and shares held by or under the control of a receiver may be voted by such receiver without being transferred into the name of the receiver, if such authority is contained in an appropriate order of the court that appointed the receiver.

Section 10 . Action by Consent . Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting if, before or after the action, a written consent thereto is signed by stockholders holding at least a majority of the voting power, except that if a different proportion of voting power is required for such an action at a meeting, then that proportion of written consents is required.  In no instance where action is authorized by written consent need a meeting of stockholders be called or notice given. Consent does not have to be unanimous. Every written consent must bear the date of signature of each stockholder who signs the consent. No written consent shall be effective to take the action that is the subject of the consent unless, within 60 days after the date of the earliest dated consent delivered to the Corporation in the manner required by this Section 10 , a consent or consents signed by the holder or holders of shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to take the action that is the subject of the consent are delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Corporation having custody of the books in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded.

Section 2 Lost Certificates . The Corporation may direct that a new certificate be issued in place of any certificate theretofore issued by the Corporation alleged to have been lost or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming the certificate to be lost or destroyed. When authorizing the issue of a new certificate, the Board of Directors, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, may require the owner of the lost or destroyed certificate, or the owner's legal representative, to advertise the same in such manner as it shall require and/or give the Corporation a bond in such form, in such sums, and with such surety or sureties as it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Corporation with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

19
 

 

Section 2 Insurance . The Corporation may purchase or maintain insurance on behalf of any Corporate Functionary against any liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in such a capacity or arising out of his or her status as a Corporate Functionary, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him or her or her against the liability under the Nevada Revised Statutes or these Bylaws; provided, however, that if the insurance or other arrangement is with a person or entity that is not regularly engaged in the business of providing insurance coverage, the insurance or arrangement may provide for payment of a liability with respect to which the Corporation would not have the power to indemnify the person only if including coverage for the additional liability has been approved by the stockholders of the Corporation. Without limiting the power of the Corporation to procure or maintain any kind of insurance or arrangement, the Corporation may, for the benefit of persons indemnified by the Corporation, (i) create a trust fund, (ii) establish any form of self-insurance, (iii) secure its indemnification obligations by grant of any security interest or other lien on the assets of the Corporation, or (iv) establish a letter of credit, guaranty or surety arrangement.

In the absence of fraud, the judgment of the Board of Directors of the Corporation as to the terms and conditions of such insurance or other arrangement and the identity of the insurer or other person participating in an arrangement shall be conclusive, and the insurance or arrangement shall not be voidable and shall not subject the directors approving the insurance or arrangement to liability, on the ground, regardless of whether directors participating in approving such insurance or other arrangement shall be beneficiaries thereof.

PROMISSORY NOTE

 

$10,000 San Antonio, Texas October 31, 2014

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, DIGERATI TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a Nevada corporation, whose address is 3463 Magic Drive, Suite 355, San Antonio, Texas 78229 (the “ Debtor ”), promises to pay to the order of Flagship Oil and Gas Corp., a Texas corporation, whose address is 626 Jessamine Street, San Antonio, Texas 78209 (the “ Payee ”), the sum of TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS ($10,000) in lawful money of the United States of America which shall be legal tender for the payment of debts from time to time, together with interest on the outstanding principal amount hereof at the rate of seven percent (7%) interest per annum, computed on the basis of a 360-day year and 30-day months.  

 

This Note shall be payable in a single installment of principal and accrued interest, without demand, on January 5, 2015 (the “ Maturity Date ”). If the Maturity Date shall be a Saturday, Sunday, or day on which Banks in San Antonio, Texas, or the place of payment are authorized or required to be closed, such payment shall be made on the next following day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or day on which banks in San Antonio, Texas, or the place of payment are authorized or required to be closed and interest thereon shall continue to accrue thereon until such date.

 

Time is of the essence of this Note, and the Debtor expressly agrees that in the event of default in the payment of any principal or interest when due, the Payee may declare the entirety of this Note immediately due and payable. Upon the occurrence of any default hereunder, the Payee shall also have the right to exercise any and all of the rights, remedies and recourses now or hereafter existing in equity, law, by virtue of statute or otherwise.

 

In the event that any payment is not made when due, either of principal or interest, and whether upon maturity or as a result of acceleration, interest shall thereafter accrue at the rate per annum equal to the lesser of (a) the maximum non-usurious rate of interest permitted by the laws of the State of Texas or the United States of America, whichever shall permit the higher rate or (b) twenty percent (20%) per annum, from such date until the entire balance of principal and accrued interest on this Note has been paid.

 

Debtor has the privilege of making prepayments on this Note from time to time in any amount without penalty provided that any such prepayment shall be applied to accrued and unpaid interest on this Note and the balance, if any, to the principal amount payable under this Note; provided, however, that Debtor shall give Payee at least 10 days’ notice before making any prepayment of more than $10,000, which notice shall specify the amount of the prepayment and the date upon which such prepayment will be made, and upon giving of any such notice this Note shall be deemed to be amended to require the payment of amount set forth in such notice on the date set forth in such notice.

 

 
 

 

No failure to exercise and no delay on the part of Payee in exercising any power or right in connection herewith shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. No course of dealing between Debtor and Payee shall operate as a waiver of any right of Payee. No modification or waiver of any provision of this Note or any consent to any departure therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the person against whom enforcement thereof is to be sought, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

 

In the event default is made in the prompt payment of this Note when due or declared due, and the same is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection, or suit is brought on same, or the same is collected through any judicial proceeding whatsoever, or if any action be had hereon, then Debtor agrees and promises to pay an additional amount as reasonable, calculated and foreseeable attorneys’ and collection fees incurred by Payee in connection with enforcing its rights herein contemplated.

 

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Debtor hereby waives grace, notice, demand or presentment for payment of this Note, dishonor, notice of dishonor, notice of default or nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, suit, notice of intention to accelerate, notice of acceleration, diligence or any notice of or defense on account of the extension of time of payments or change in the method of payments, and consents to any and all renewals and extensions in the time of payment hereof, and the release of any party primarily or secondarily liable hereon.

 

It is expressly provided and stipulated that notwithstanding any provision of this Note, in no event shall the aggregate of all interest paid by Debtor to Payee hereunder ever exceed the maximum non-usurious rate of interest which may lawfully be charged Debtor under the laws of the State of Texas or United States Federal Government, as applicable, on the principal balance of this Note remaining unpaid. It is expressly stipulated and agreed by Debtor that it is the intent of Payee and Debtor in the execution and delivery of this Note to contract in furtherance of such laws, and that none of the terms of this Note shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay for the use, forbearance or detention of money, at any interest rate in excess of the maximum non-usurious rate of interest permitted to be charged Debtor under the laws of the State of Texas or United States Federal Government, as applicable. The provisions of this paragraph shall govern over all other provisions of this Note should any such provisions be in apparent conflict herewith.

 

2
 

 

Specifically and without limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, it is expressly provided that:

 

(i) In the event of prepayment of the principal of this Note, in whole or in part, or the payment of the principal of this Note prior to the Maturity Date, whether resulting from acceleration of the maturity of this Note or otherwise, if the aggregate amount of interest accruing hereon prior to such payment plus the amount of any interest accruing after maturity and plus any other amount paid or accrued in connection with the indebtedness evidenced hereby which by law are deemed interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the Note and which aggregate amounts paid or accrued (if calculated in accordance with the provisions of this Note other than this paragraph) would exceed the maximum non-usurious rate of interest which could lawfully be charged as above mentioned on the unpaid principal balance of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note from time to time advanced (less any discount) and remaining unpaid from the date advanced to the date of final payment thereof, then in such event the amount of such excess shall be credited, as of the date paid, toward the payment of the principal of this Note so as to reduce the amount of the final payment of principal due on this Note, or if the principal amount hereof has been paid in full, refunded to Debtor.

 

(ii) If under any circumstances the aggregate amounts paid on the indebtedness evidenced by this Note prior to and incident to the final payment hereof include amounts which by law are deemed interest and which would exceed the maximum non-usurious rate of interest which could lawfully have been charged or collected on this Note, as above mentioned, Debtor stipulates that (a) any non-principal payment shall be characterized as an expense, fee, or premium rather than as interest and any excess shall be credited hereon by the holder hereof (or, if this Note shall have been paid in full, refunded to Debtor); and (b) determination of the rate of interest for determining whether the indebtedness evidenced hereby is usurious shall be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating, and spreading, in equal parts during the full stated term hereof, all interest at any time contracted for, charged, or received from Debtor in connection with such indebtedness, and any excess shall be canceled, credited, or refunded as set forth in (a) herein.

 

Any check, draft, money order, or other instrument given in payment of all or any portion of this Note may be accepted by Payee and handled in collection in the customary manner, but the same shall not constitute payment hereunder or diminish any rights of Payee except to the extent that actual cash proceeds of such instruments are unconditionally received by Payee. If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on this Note is rescinded or must be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Debtor or otherwise, the obligation under this Note with respect to that payment shall be reinstated as though the payment had been due but not made at that time.

 

Debtor agrees that this Note shall be freely assignable to any assignee of Payee, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws.

 

Debtor represents and warrants that the extension of credit represented by this Note is for business, commercial, investment, or other similar purposes and not primarily for personal, family, household or agricultural use.

This Note has been executed and delivered and shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Texas and of the United States of America applicable in Texas. Venue for any litigation between Debtor and Payee with respect to this Note shall be Bexar County, Texas. Debtor and Payee hereby irrevocably submit to personal jurisdiction in Texas, and waive all objections to personal jurisdiction in Texas and venue in Bexar County for purposes of such litigation.

 

THIS NOTE REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN DEBTOR AND PAYEE AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN DEBTOR AND PAYEE.

No failure to exercise and no delay on the part of Payee in exercising any power or right in connection herewith shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. No course of dealing between Debtor and Payee shall operate as a waiver of any right of Payee. No modification or waiver of any provision of this Note or any consent to any departure therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the person against whom enforcement thereof is to be sought, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

 

In the event default is made in the prompt payment of this Note when due or declared due, and the same is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection, or suit is brought on same, or the same is collected through any judicial proceeding whatsoever, or if any action be had hereon, then Debtor agrees and promises to pay an additional amount as reasonable, calculated and foreseeable attorneys’ and collection fees incurred by Payee in connection with enforcing its rights herein contemplated.

 

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Debtor hereby waives grace, notice, demand or presentment for payment of this Note, dishonor, notice of dishonor, notice of default or nonpayment, protest, notice of protest, suit, notice of intention to accelerate, notice of acceleration, diligence or any notice of or defense on account of the extension of time of payments or change in the method of payments, and consents to any and all renewals and extensions in the time of payment hereof, and the release of any party primarily or secondarily liable hereon.

 

It is expressly provided and stipulated that notwithstanding any provision of this Note, in no event shall the aggregate of all interest paid by Debtor to Payee hereunder ever exceed the maximum non-usurious rate of interest which may lawfully be charged Debtor under the laws of the State of Texas or United States Federal Government, as applicable, on the principal balance of this Note remaining unpaid. It is expressly stipulated and agreed by Debtor that it is the intent of Payee and Debtor in the execution and delivery of this Note to contract in furtherance of such laws, and that none of the terms of this Note shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay for the use, forbearance or detention of money, at any interest rate in excess of the maximum non-usurious rate of interest permitted to be charged Debtor under the laws of the State of Texas or United States Federal Government, as applicable. The provisions of this paragraph shall govern over all other provisions of this Note should any such provisions be in apparent conflict herewith.

Specifically and without limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, it is expressly provided that:

 

(i) In the event of prepayment of the principal of this Note, in whole or in part, or the payment of the principal of this Note prior to the Maturity Date, whether resulting from acceleration of the maturity of this Note or otherwise, if the aggregate amount of interest accruing hereon prior to such payment plus the amount of any interest accruing after maturity and plus any other amount paid or accrued in connection with the indebtedness evidenced hereby which by law are deemed interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the Note and which aggregate amounts paid or accrued (if calculated in accordance with the provisions of this Note other than this paragraph) would exceed the maximum non-usurious rate of interest which could lawfully be charged as above mentioned on the unpaid principal balance of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note from time to time advanced (less any discount) and remaining unpaid from the date advanced to the date of final payment thereof, then in such event the amount of such excess shall be credited, as of the date paid, toward the payment of the principal of this Note so as to reduce the amount of the final payment of principal due on this Note, or if the principal amount hereof has been paid in full, refunded to Debtor.

 

(ii) If under any circumstances the aggregate amounts paid on the indebtedness evidenced by this Note prior to and incident to the final payment hereof include amounts which by law are deemed interest and which would exceed the maximum non-usurious rate of interest which could lawfully have been charged or collected on this Note, as above mentioned, Debtor stipulates that (a) any non-principal payment shall be characterized as an expense, fee, or premium rather than as interest and any excess shall be credited hereon by the holder hereof (or, if this Note shall have been paid in full, refunded to Debtor); and (b) determination of the rate of interest for determining whether the indebtedness evidenced hereby is usurious shall be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating, and spreading, in equal parts during the full stated term hereof, all interest at any time contracted for, charged, or received from Debtor in connection with such indebtedness, and any excess shall be canceled, credited, or refunded as set forth in (a) herein.

 

Any check, draft, money order, or other instrument given in payment of all or any portion of this Note may be accepted by Payee and handled in collection in the customary manner, but the same shall not constitute payment hereunder or diminish any rights of Payee except to the extent that actual cash proceeds of such instruments are unconditionally received by Payee. If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on this Note is rescinded or must be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Debtor or otherwise, the obligation under this Note with respect to that payment shall be reinstated as though the payment had been due but not made at that time.

 

Debtor agrees that this Note shall be freely assignable to any assignee of Payee, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws.

 

Debtor represents and warrants that the extension of credit represented by this Note is for business, commercial, investment, or other similar purposes and not primarily for personal, family, household or agricultural use.

In no event shall the provisions of Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code apply to this Note. To the extent that Payee is relying on Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code to determine the Maximum Lawful Rate payable on the Note, Payee will utilize the weekly ceiling from time to time in effect as provided in such Chapter 303, as amended. To the extent United States federal law permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, receive or reserve a greater amount of interest than under Texas law, Payee will rely on United States federal law instead of such Chapter 303 for the purpose of determining the Maximum Lawful Rate. Additionally, to the extent permitted by applicable law now or hereafter in effect, Payee may, at its option and from time to time, utilize any other method of establishing the Maximum Lawful Rate under such Chapter 303 or under other applicable law by giving notice, if required, to Debtor as provided by applicable law now or hereafter in effect.

Representations and Warranties of Purchaser .  Purchaser hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Company and Purchaser agrees to hold harmless the Company from any liability or injury, including, but not limited to, that arising under Federal or state securities laws, incurred as a result of any misrepresentation herein or any warranties not performed by Purchaser.

(a) Organization, Good Standing and Corporate Power .  Purchaser is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Texas. Purchaser is authorized and duly empowered to purchase and hold the Shares and the Warrant, has its principal place of business at the address set forth on the signature page and has not been formed for the specific purpose of purchasing the Shares, the Warrant or the Warrant Shares.

(b) Authorization .  All corporate action on the part of Purchaser, its officers, directors and stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution, delivery and performance of all obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement has been or shall be taken prior to the Closing, and this Agreement, when executed and delivered, shall constitute a valid and legally binding obligation of Purchaser, enforceable against Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific enforcement, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.

(c) Compliance with Other Instruments .   The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Purchaser, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not result in a violation of, or default under, any contract, agreement, instrument, judgment, order, writ, or decree applicable to Purchaser.

(d) Speculative Nature of Investment .  Purchaser is aware that an investment in the Shares, the Warrant and the Warrant Shares is highly speculative and subject to substantial risks.  Purchaser is capable of bearing the high degree of economic risk and burdens of this investment, including, but not limited to, the possibility of the complete loss of all funds invested, the loss of any anticipated tax benefits, the lack of a public market, and limited transferability of the Shares, the Warrant and the Warrant Shares which may make the liquidation of this investment impossible for the indefinite future, if at all.

(e) No Public Solicitation .  The offer to sell the Shares and the Warrant was directly communicated to Purchaser and Purchaser was able to ask questions of and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of this transaction.  At no time was Purchaser presented with or solicited by or through any article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper or other leaflet, public promotional meeting, television, radio or other broadcast or transmittal advertisement or any other form of general advertising.

3
 

(f) Investment Intent .  The Shares and the Warrant are being purchased solely for Purchaser’s own account, for investment, and are not being purchased with a view to the resale, distribution, subdivision or fractionalization thereof. Subject to compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws, the Shares and the Warrant may be distributed to Purchaser’s stockholder(s) in the future as a dividend or under a share exchange agreement.

(g) Restrictions on Transfer .  Purchaser understands that the Shares, the Warrant and the Warrant Shares have not been registered, and that the Company is under no obligation to register the Shares, the Warrant or the Warrant Shares, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”), or any state securities laws in reliance upon exemptions from registration for non-public issuances of securities by issuers of such securities.  Purchaser understands that the Shares, the Warrant and the Warrant Shares, or any interest therein, may not be, and agrees that the Shares, the Warrant and the Warrant Shares or any interest therein, will not be, resold or otherwise disposed of by Purchaser unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and under appropriate state securities laws or unless Purchaser provides the Company with an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that an exemption from registration is available.  Purchaser further understands that each certificate representing the Shares, the Warrant or the Warrant Shares and any other securities issued in respect thereto upon any stock distribution, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or similar event, are expected (unless otherwise permitted by the provisions of this Section or by applicable law) to be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form (in addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws):

 THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED UNLESS THEY ARE SUBSEQUENTLY REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO IT THAT AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE.

(h) Purchaser Understandings .  Purchaser affirms that he has been informed of and understands the following:

(i) There are substantial restrictions on the transferability of the Shares, the Warrant and the Warrant Shares under the Securities Act; and

(ii) No federal or state agency has made any finding or determination as to the fairness of the Shares, the Warrant or the Warrant Shares for public investment or any recommendation or endorsement of the Shares, the Warrant or the Warrant Shares.

4
 

(i) None of the following information has ever been represented, guarantied, or warranted to Purchaser expressly or by implication, by the Company, or any agents or employee of the Company, or by any other person:

(i) The approximate or exact length of time that Purchaser will be required to hold the Shares, the Warrant or the Warrant Shares;

(ii) The percentage of profit and/or amount of or type of consideration, profit or loss to be realized, if any, as a result of an investment in the Shares, the Warrant or the Warrant Shares; or

(iii) That the past performance or experience of the Company, or associates, agents, affiliates, or employees of the Company or any other person, will in any way indicate or predict economic results in connection with the purchase or ownership of the Shares, the Warrant or the Warrant Shares.

(j) Purchaser hereby agrees to hold harmless, the Company, its directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives, and any person participating in the purchase and sale of the Shares, the Warrant or the Warrant Shares from and against any and all liability, damage, cost and expenses incurred on account of or arising out of:

(i) Any inaccuracy in the declarations, representations, and warranties herein above set forth;

(ii) The disposition of any of the Shares, the Warrant or any Warrant Shares by Purchaser contrary to the foregoing declarations, representations and warranties; or

(iii) Any action, suit or proceeding based in whole or in part upon (A) the claim that said declarations, representations, or warranties were inaccurate or misleading or otherwise cause for obtaining damages or redress from the Company; (B) the disposition of any of the Shares, the Warrant or any Warrant Shares; or (C) the breach by Purchaser of any provision of this Agreement.

7. Indemnification .  Purchaser hereby covenants and agrees to indemnify the Company (including its directors, officers, employees and agents) and any person participating in the distribution of the Shares, the Warrant and the Warrant Shares and hold them harmless from and against any and all liability, damage, costs (including legal fees and court costs) and expenses incurred on account of or arising out of (i) any inaccuracy in the declarations, representations, and warranties of Purchaser herein above set forth; (ii) the disposition of any of the Shares, the Warrant or the Warrant Shares contrary to the foregoing declarations, representations and warranties; and (iii) any action, suit or proceeding based upon (A) the claim that said declarations, representations, or warranties were inaccurate or misleading or otherwise cause for obtaining damages or redress from the Company; (B) the disposition of any of the Shares, the Warrant or any Warrant Shares; or (C) the breach by Purchaser of any provision of this Agreement.
