Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On June 1, 2018, Oncolix, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Company” or “Oncolix”), entered into agreements with investors in connection with a convertible debt and warrant financing (the “Units”) and entered into an agreement to amend the terms of its previously issued and outstanding debt.

 

Debt and Warrant Financing on June 1, 2018

 

On June 1, 2018, the Company received gross cash proceeds of $1,034,699 from the issuance and sale of Units of Convertible Notes (as defined below) in the principal amount of $1,217,293 and Warrants (as defined below) to acquire 49,520,548 shares of common stock (“Common Stock”) of the Company (the “Unit Offering”). The investors in the Unit Offering are collectively referred to as “Purchasers”.

 

The Unit Offering is documented with the Purchasers pursuant to the following: (i) a securities purchase agreement, dated June 1, 2018, by and among the Company and the Purchasers (the “Purchase Agreement”); (ii) 10% senior secured convertible notes of the Company issued in favor of the Purchasers (the “Convertible Notes”); (iii) a registration rights agreement, dated June 1, 2018, by and between the Company and the Purchasers (the “Registration Rights Agreement”); (iv) a security agreement, dated June 1, 2018, by and among Oncolix, Inc., a Delaware company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Oncolix-Delaware”), the Company and Purchasers (the “Security Agreement”); (v) an IP security agreement, dated June 1, 2018, by and among Oncolix-Delaware, the Company and the collateral agent of the Unit Offering (the “IP Security Agreement”); (vi) five-year warrants to purchase Company Common Stock dated June 1, 2018, issued by the Company to the Purchasers (“Warrants”); (vii) a lock-up agreement, dated June 1, 2018, by and among the Company and certain existing equity holders (the “Lock-Up Agreement”); (viii) a subsidiary guarantee, dated June 1, 2018, by and between Oncolix-Delaware and Purchasers (“Guarantee”), (ix) an intercreditor agreement dated June 1, 2018 by and between the Company, Oncolix-Delaware and the Purchasers (“Intercreditor Agreement”), and (x) a waiver and amendment by and between the Company and the Purchasers dated June 1, 2018 relating to the August 2017 Financing (as defined below) in which the Purchasers were investors in the Company (“2017 Note Amendment” and collectively with the Purchase Agreement, Convertible Notes, Registration Rights Agreement, Security Agreement, IP Security Agreement, Warrants, Lock-Up Agreement, Guarantee and Intercreditor Agreement, the “Transaction Documents”), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold the Convertible Notes and the Warrants to the Purchasers pursuant to the Transaction Documents.

Convertible Notes

 

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued Convertible Notes to the Purchasers in an aggregate principal amount of $1,217,293 for a cash purchase price of $1,034,699, representing a 15% original issuance discount.

 

The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum, with accrued interest payable commencing April 1, 2019, then on the first day of each calendar month thereafter until maturity. The interest is payable in cash or, at the option of the Company, subject to compliance with Equity Conditions (as defined below), in fully tradable Company Common Stock at a 25% discount to the average of the five lowest closing bid prices for the 20 trading days prior to the interest payment date. The maturity of the Convertible Notes is August 1, 2019, but commencing on April 1, 2019 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter until maturity, the Company is required to redeem an amount of the Convertible Notes equal to 1/5th of the original principal amount, plus 10% of such monthly redemption amount as a bonus. The principal payments shall be made in cash or, subject to the satisfaction of Equity Conditions, in Company Common Stock valued at a 25% discount to the average of the five lowest closing bid prices for the 20 trading days prior to the amortization date.

 

The Convertible Notes are convertible at the option of the Purchasers at a conversion price equal to $0.03 per share of Company Common Stock. The Convertible Notes contain customary anti-dilution protection, including full-ratchet anti-dilution adjustments in the event of certain dilutive issuances (that adjust both price and share amounts).

 

In the event of a closing of an $8 million financing in connection with a change in listing of the Company Common Stock to Nasdaq or the NYSE, the Convertible Notes shall be subject to mandatory conversion into Company Common Stock at a 35% discount to the offering price.

 

The Company shall be required to offer to prepay in cash the aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes at 135% of the principal amount thereof plus any unpaid accrued interest to the date of repayment, at maturity, on the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company, upon a change of control, upon a qualified offering, or upon a “fundamental transaction” (tender offer, reclassification, sale of substantially all assets and mergers) of the Company; in such an event, the Purchasers shall have the right to convert the Convertible Notes prior to the date of any such prepayment.

 

The Convertible Notes contain standard negative covenants customary for transactions of this type. The events of default are also customary for transactions of this type, including default in timely payment of principal or interest, failure to observe or perform any covenant or agreement contained in the Convertible Note, Transaction Documents, the August 2017 Transaction Documents as amended pursuant to the 2017 Note Amendment (as defined below), the commencement of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, failure to timely deliver conversion shares underlying the Convertible Notes, failure to timely file Exchange Act filings, and failure to satisfy certain Equity Conditions.

 

Equity Conditions mean, during the period in question, (a) the Company shall have duly honored all conversions and redemptions of the Convertible Notes, (b) the Company shall have complied with all conversion and other provisions of the Convertible Notes and shall have paid all liquidated damages and other amounts owing in respect of this Convertible Note, (c)(A) there is an effective registration statement pursuant to which the holder is permitted to utilize the prospectus thereunder to resell at least the number of shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the Transaction Documents at such time or (B) all of the underlying shares may be resold pursuant to Rule 144 without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or current public information requirements, (d) the Company Common Stock is trading on a trading market, (e) there is a sufficient number of authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved shares of Company Common Stock for the issuance of five times all of the shares issuable pursuant to the Convertible Notes and Warrants, (f) there is no existing event of default or no existing event which, with the passage of time or the giving of notice, would constitute an event of default, (g) the issuance of the shares in question would not violate the beneficial ownership limitations in the Transaction Documents, (h) there has been no public announcement of a pending or proposed fundamental transaction or change of control transaction that has not been consummated, (i) the holder is not in possession of any information provided by the Company that constitutes, or may constitute, material non-public information, (j) Company Common Stock is DWAC eligible and not subject to a DTC “chill;” and (k) for each trading day in a period of 10 consecutive trading days prior to the applicable date in question (A) the daily dollar trading volume for the Company Common Stock on the principal trading market exceeds $75,000 per trading day and (B) the weighted average stock price for the Company Common Stock on the principal trading market is above 50% of the closing stock price on June 1, 2018 (as adjusted for all stock splits stock dividends, stock combinations, reclassifications and other transactions).

 

The Company has the right at any time to redeem all, but not less than all, of the total outstanding amount of principal amount then remaining under the Convertible Notes at a price equal to 135% of such principal amount.

Warrants

 

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued the Purchasers five-year Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 49,520,548 shares of Company Common Stock at a purchase price of $0.036 per share, exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis. The warrants contain customary anti-dilution provisions, including full-ratchet anti-dilution adjustments in the event of certain dilutive issuances (that adjust both price and share amounts).

 

Security Agreements and Guarantee

 

In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company and Oncolix-Delaware pledged substantially all of their assets as security and collateral for the Convertible Notes, including all intellectual property of Oncolix-Delaware and the shares of capital stock of Oncolix-Delaware owned by the Company. Additionally, Oncolix guaranteed the obligations of the Convertible Notes. The Purchasers have entered into an Intercreditor Agreement with the Company, as well as with the holders of the August 2017 Convertible Notes (as defined below), whereby all parties share ratably in the collateral covered by the Security Agreement and IP Security Agreement.

 

Registration Rights Agreement

 

In connection with the execution of the Purchase Agreement, the Company and the Purchasers also entered into the Registration Rights Agreement. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, in the event the Company registers shares of its Common Stock for sale or resale, excluding shares underlying the August 2017 Notes and August 2017 Warrants, the Company has agreed to include, on a piggy-back basis, the resale of all shares of Company Common Stock issuable under conversion of the Convertible Notes and upon exercise of the Warrants and any securities issued or then issuable upon any stock split, dividend or other distribution, recapitalization or similar event with respect to the foregoing (the “Registrable Shares”). The Company shall file any such registration statement within 30 days of receiving notice from a Purchaser to include the Registrable Shares in such registration statement pursuant to their piggy-back registration right and shall use its best efforts to obtain effectiveness of such registration statement upon the earlier of (i) the 90th calendar day after filing (120th calendar day after filing in the event that the registration statement is subject to review by the SEC) and (ii) the 5th business day after the date the Company is notified by the SEC that the registration statement will not be reviewed or will not be subject to further review.

 

The Company also agreed to file additional registration statements to cover all of the Registrable Securities that are not covered by the initial registration statement on or prior to 30 days following the date the Company first knows that such additional registration statement is required to be filed and have it declared effective no later than the earlier of (i) the 60th calendar day following the date the Company first knows that it is required to file such additional registration statement and (ii) the 5th business day after the date the Company is notified by the SEC that the registration statement will not be reviewed or will not be subject to further review. If (i) the initial registration statement is not declared effective on or before the 90th calendar day following the date of the Purchase Agreement (120th day in the event of a SEC review), (ii) any additional registration statement is not declared effective on or before its effectiveness deadline, or (iii) any registration statement is declared effective by the SEC but shall thereafter cease to be effective for a period of time of 10 consecutive calendar days but not more than an aggregate of 15 calendar days in any one 12-month period (each such event, a “Non-Registration Event”), then the Company shall deliver to the Purchasers, as liquidated damages, an amount equal to ten percent of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes then held by the Purchasers for the first 30 days (or part thereof) and after such 30 days, an additional 10% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes for a subsequent 30-day period (or part thereof); provided that the maximum amount of liquidated damages shall not exceed 18% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes. The Company may pay the liquidated damages in cash or through the issuance of shares of Company Common Stock (valued at 75% of the average of the 5 lowest closing bid prices for the 20 consecutive trading days prior to the Non-Registration Event) provided the Equity Conditions are met. In addition, if there is not an effective registration statement covering all the Registrable Securities and the Company elects to register the issuance or resale of other Company securities, the Company is required to include such Registrable Securities in such registration statement filed with the SEC.

 

The Company also agreed, among other things, to indemnify the Purchasers from certain liabilities and fees and expenses of the Purchasers incident to the Company’s obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, including certain liabilities under the Securities Act. The Purchasers have agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each of its directors, officers and persons who control the Company against certain liabilities that may be based upon written information furnished by the Purchasers to the Company for inclusion in a registration statement pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, including certain liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

Other Terms

 

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by, among and for the benefit of the parties. Additionally, the Purchase Agreement provides for (i) liquidated damages in the event of the failure to timely (A) deliver Company Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes or issuance of shares upon exercise of Warrants and (B) remove restrictive legends, (ii) a right to participate in future financings, (iii) a most-favored nation’s right with respect to future financings, and (iv) certain “down-round” protection. The Purchase Agreement also provides for indemnification of the Purchasers and its affiliates in the event that the Purchasers incur losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses related to the Company’s breach of any of its representations, warranties or covenants under the Purchase Agreement.

Michael T. Redman and J. Donald Payne agreed not to sell, assign or otherwise transfer any of their shares of Company Common Stock until after August 1, 2019.

 

At no time will the Purchasers be entitled to convert any portion of the Convertible Notes or exercise any portion of the Warrants, to the extent that after such conversion and/or exercise, the Purchasers (together with their affiliates) would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock as of such date, which limit may be increased to 9.99% at the election of the Purchasers but no greater than 9.99%.

 

The issuance of the Notes and Warrants to the 18 Purchasers under the Purchase Agreement were, and the issuance of the shares of Company Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants will be, exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, pursuant to the exemption for transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D. The Company made this determination based on the representations of the Purchasers in the Purchase Agreement that the Purchasers are “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D and have access to information about the investment and about the Company. In connection with the Unit Offering, pursuant to the post-termination provisions of a previously terminated placement agent agreement, the Company paid a sales commission to a FINRA-registered broker-dealer in the amount of approximately $86,000. In addition, the placement agent received warrants (identical to the Warrants issued the Purchasers) to acquire approximately 4,950,000 shares of Company Common Stock.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Transaction Documents do not purport to be complete, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to each such document (or form thereof, as applicable), filed as Exhibits 10.1 through 10.9, incorporated herein by reference.

 

Amendment to Previously Issued and Outstanding Debt

 

Amendment to Terms of 2017 Debt and Warrant Financing

 

In August 2017, the Company entered into a convertible debt and warrant financing. Such investment was effected through the issuance and sale of August 2017 convertible notes in the principal amount of $4,190,463 (the “August 2017 Convertible Notes”) and warrants to acquire 59,072,837 shares of Common Stock (the “August 2017 Warrants”). The provisions and rights of the August 2017 Convertible Notes and August 2017 Warrants are described and included in the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 9, 2017.

 

In connection with the $1,217,293 financing on June 1, 2018, the investors in the August 2017 Notes entered into the 2017 Note Amendment which amended and waived certain provisions of the August 2017 transaction documents. Certain material terms of the following 2017 transaction documents that have been amended are as follows.

 

Amended Terms of the August 2017 Convertible Notes

 

Pursuant to the 2017 Note Amendment, the principal amount of the August 2017 Convertible Notes were increased by 30% and the current outstanding principal amount is $5,447,602.

 

As amended, the August 2017 Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum, with accrued interest payable commencing April 1, 2019, then on the first day of each calendar month thereafter until maturity. The interest is payable in cash or, at the option of the Company, subject to compliance with Equity Conditions, in fully tradable Company Common Stock at a 25% discount to the average of the five lowest closing bid prices for the 20 trading days prior to the interest payment date. The maturity of the Convertible Notes is August 1, 2019, but commencing on April 1, 2019 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter until maturity, the Company is required to redeem an amount of the August 2017 Convertible Notes equal to 1/5th of the original principal amount, plus 10% of such monthly redemption amount as a bonus. The principal payments shall be made in cash or, subject to the satisfaction of Equity Conditions, in Company Common Stock valued at a 25% discount to the average of the five lowest closing bid prices for the 20 trading days prior to the amortization date.

 

As amended, the August 2017 Convertible Notes are convertible at the option of the investors at a conversion price equal to $0.03 per share of Company Common Stock, such reduction being the result of existing anti-dilution provisions, and the August 2017 Convertible Notes continue to have customary anti-dilution protection, including full-ratchet anti-dilution adjustments in the event of certain dilutive issuances (that adjust both price and share amounts).

 
 
5
 
 

 

In the event of a closing of an $8 million financing in connection with a change in listing of the Company Common Stock to Nasdaq or the NYSE, the August 2017 Convertible Notes shall be subject to mandatory conversion into Company Common Stock at a 35% discount to the offering price.

 

The Company shall be required to offer to prepay in cash the aggregate principal amount of the August 2017 Convertible Notes at 135% of the principal amount thereof plus any unpaid accrued interest to the date of repayment, at maturity, on the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company, upon a change of control, upon a qualified offering, or upon a “fundamental transaction” (tender offer, reclassification, sale of substantially all assets and mergers) of the Company; in such an event, the investors shall have the right to convert the August 2017 Convertible Notes prior to the date of any such prepayment.

 

The August 2017 Convertible Notes contain standard negative covenants customary for transactions of this type. The events of default are also customary for transactions of this type, including default in timely payment of principal or interest, failure to observe or perform any covenant or agreement contained in the August 2017 Convertible Note and other transaction documents, cross-defaults to other indebtedness, the commencement of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, failure to timely deliver conversion shares underlying the August 2017 Convertible Notes, failure to timely file Exchange Act filings, and failure to satisfy certain Equity Conditions.

 

The Equity Conditions remain identical to those contained in the Convertible Notes issued June 1, 2018, and described above.

 

The Company has the right at any time to redeem all, but not less than all, of the total outstanding amount of principal amount then remaining under the August 2017 Convertible Notes at a price equal to 135% of such principal amount.

 

Amended Terms of the August 2017 Warrants

 

The number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants was increased to 176,418,511 shares of Company common stock and the exercise price of the August 2017 Warrants was reduced to $0.03 per share, exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, in accordance with the existing anti-dilution provisions, and the August 2017 Warrants continue to have customary anti-dilution provisions, including full-ratchet anti-dilution adjustments in the event of certain dilutive issuances (that adjust both price and share amounts).

 

Amended Terms of Security Agreements

 

In connection with the 2017 Note Amendment, the holders of the August 2017 Convertible Notes have agreed to share the collateral (all of the assets of the Company) pari passu with the holders of the Convertible Notes, pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement. The obligations of the August 2017 Convertible Notes continue to be guaranteed by a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Oncolix-Delaware.

 

Amended terms of August 2017 Registration Rights Agreement

 

The provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement related to the August 2017 financing remain in effect except that all liquidated damage provisions have been deleted.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the 2017 Note Amendment does not purport to be complete, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the 2017 Note Amendment filed as Exhibits 10.10, incorporated herein by reference.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company agrees that, following the time such legend is not required pursuant to this Section 4.1(c), the Company shall, no later than two Trading Days following the delivery by the Purchasers to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of (i) a certificate representing Common Shares issued with a restrictive legend and (ii) the deliverables contemplated in Exhibit J or Exhibit K , as is applicable (such second Trading Day, the “ Legend Removal Date ”), either: (A) issue and deliver (or cause to be issued and delivered) to the Purchasers a certificate representing such Common Shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends or (B) cause the Company’s transfer agent to credit the Purchasers or their designees’ accounts at DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system with a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Common Shares represented by the certificate so delivered by the Purchasers.

d) In addition to the Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to each Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, $1000 per Trading Day for each Trading Day after the Legend Removal Date until such certificate is delivered without a legend. Nothing herein shall limit each Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Company's failure to deliver certificates representing any Securities as required by the Transaction Documents, and each Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.

 

 

 

 

e) The Purchaser agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates representing Securities as set forth in this Section 4.1 is predicated upon the Company’s reliance that such Purchaser will sell any Securities pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom.

 

4.2 Acknowledgment of Dilution . The Company acknowledges that the issuance of the Securities may result in dilution of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, which dilution may be substantial under certain market conditions. The Company further acknowledges that its obligations under the Transaction Documents, including without limitation its obligation to issue the Common Shares underlying the Notes pursuant to the Transaction Documents, are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim, delay or reduction, regardless of the effect of any such dilution or any claim the Company may have against any Purchaser and regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership of the other stockholders of the Company.

 

4.3 Furnishing of Information; Rule 144 Availability . As long as any Purchaser owns Securities, if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to the Exchange Act, it will prepare and furnish to such Purchaser and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such information as is required for such Purchaser to sell the Securities under Rule 144. The Company further covenants that it will take such further action as any holder of Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Person to sell such Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144.

If, (i) at any time during the Required Period, the Company shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act (a “Public Information Failure”), or (ii) the Company shall fail to take such action as is reasonably requested by the Purchaser to enable the Purchasers to sell any of the shares received in connection with the Notes pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (including, without limitation, delivering all such legal opinions, consents, certificates, resolutions and instructions to the Company’s transfer agent as may be reasonably requested from time to time by the Purchasers and otherwise fully cooperate with Purchasers and each Purchaser’s broker to effect such sale of the shares of common stock received in connection with the Notes or Warrants pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act) (a “Process Failure”) then, in either case, in addition to the Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to Purchasers, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Conversion Shares, an amount in cash equal to ten (10.0%) percent of up to the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes on the day of a Public Information Failure or Process Failure, as applicable, and on every thirtieth (30th) day (pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty (30) days), thereafter, until (a) in the case of a Process Failure, the date such Process Failure is cured, or (b) in the case of a Public Information Failure, the date such Public Information Failure is cured. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, liquidated damages for each Process Failure or Public Information Failure shall not commence to accrue for a period of 5 days from the date of any such Process Failure and/or Public Information Failure. The payments to which the Purchasers shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 4.3 are referred to herein as “Rule 144 Failure Payments”. Rule 144 Failure Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (i) the last day of the calendar month during which such Rule 144 Failure Payments are incurred and (ii) the third (3rd) Trading Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Rule 144 Failure Payments is cured.

 

4.4 Integration . The Company shall not, and shall use its best efforts to ensure that no Affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities to the Purchasers or that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any Trading Market.

 

4.5 Publicity . The Company and the Purchasers shall consult with each other in issuing any press releases with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (other than the Form 8-K filed with the Commission describing the transactions herein). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of the Purchaser, or include the name of the Purchaser in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, except (i) as required by federal securities law in connection with a registration statement and (ii) to the extent such disclosure is required by law or Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide such Purchaser with prior notice of such disclosure permitted under subclause (i) or (ii).

 

4.6 Shareholder Rights Plan . No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or, to the knowledge of the Company, any other Person that the Purchaser is an “Acquiring Person” under any shareholder rights plan or similar plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company, or that the Purchasers could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, by virtue of receiving Securities under the Transaction Documents or under any other agreement between the Company and the Purchaser. The Company shall conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become subject to the Investment Company Act.

 

4.7 Use of Proceeds . The net proceeds received by the Company hereunder shall be used pay the expenses in connection with finishing the Company’s Phase 1 clinical trials, up to $200,000 for marketing and investor relation services, with the balance to be utilized for working capital and for the fees and expenses of introducing new investors into the offering.

4.8 Reimbursement . If a Purchaser becomes involved in any capacity in any Proceeding by or against any Person who is a stockholder of the Company (except as a result of sales, pledges, margin sales and similar transactions by the Purchasers to or with any current stockholder), solely as a result of such Purchaser’s acquisition of the Securities under this Agreement, the Company will reimburse such Purchaser for its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the cost of any investigation preparation and travel in connection therewith) incurred in connection therewith, as such expenses are incurred. The reimbursement obligations of the Company under this paragraph shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to any Affiliates of such Purchaser who are actually named in such action, proceeding or investigation, and partners, directors, agents, employees and controlling persons (if any), as the case may be, of such Purchaser and any such Affiliate, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Company, such Purchaser and any such Affiliate and any such Person. The Company also agrees that neither such Purchaser nor any such Affiliates, partners, directors, agents, employees or controlling persons shall have any liability to the Company or any Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of the Company solely as a result of acquiring the Securities under this Agreement.

 

4.9 Indemnification of Purchaser .

If any action shall be brought against any Purchaser Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, the Purchaser Party shall promptly notify the Company in writing, and the Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing. Any Purchaser Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Purchaser Party except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of such separate counsel, a material conflict on any material issue between the position of the Company and the position of the Purchaser Party.

4.10 Reservation and Listing of Securities . At all times and as long as any of the Purchaser owns any Securities, the Company shall take all action necessary (and/or reasonably requested by the Purchasers) to at all times have authorized, and reserved out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock for the purpose of issuance to the Purchaser upon conversions or in respect of interest on the Notes and upon exercise or in respect of the Warrants by the Purchaser or exercise of the Warrants, no less than the five times (5x) the sum of the maximum number of Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares issuable (including interest and original issue discount, and without taking into account any limitations on the issuance thereof) pursuant to the conversion of the Notes or exercisable pursuant to the Warrants (the “Required Reserved Amount”). It is understood by the Purchasers that the Company will undertake to amend the Articles of Incorporation to increase the authorized shares of Common Stock to provide for both the Required Authorization and Required Reserve Amount within 45 days from the Closing. If at any time the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance is not sufficient to meet the Required Reserved Amount, the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares, including, without limitation, calling a special meeting of stockholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company’s obligations under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, in the case of an insufficient number of authorized shares, obtain stockholder approval of an increase in such authorized number of shares, and voting the management shares of the Company in favor of an increase in the authorized shares of the Company to ensure that the number of authorized shares is sufficient to meet the Required Reserved Amount. The Company shall initially reserve shares of Common Stock on its own books and records (the “Reserve”) for the issuance of Conversion Shares, Warrant Shares and any other shares of Common Stock required to be issued by the Company to the Purchaser pursuant to the Transaction Documents, which initial reservation shall be authorized by the unanimous written consent of the Company’s Board of Directors delivered at Closing. From and after the date of this Agreement through and including the date all of the Company’s and each of its Subsidiaries’ Indebtedness and all other obligations owed to the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, including, but not limited to, the Note is paid and performed in full, confirmation of which must be obtained by in writing from the Purchaser, the Company shall (a) issue or cause its Transfer Agent to issue the shares received on conversion or exercise or in respect of interest and all other shares of Common Stock required to be issued to such Purchaser or its broker only (subject to the immediately following clause (b)), (b) issue or cause its Transfer Agent to issue shares of Common Stock to such Purchaser or its broker under the Note from sources other than the Reserve, unless such Purchaser delivers to the Company written pre-approval of such issuance from the Reserve, and (c) not reduce the Reserve under any circumstances, unless such Purchaser delivers to the Company written pre-approval of such reduction. The Company shall immediately add shares of Common Stock to the Reserve to ensure that the Required Reserve Amount (the greater of (i) and (ii) being the “Reserve Minimum”) are in the Reserve at all times. The Company shall increase the amount of shares of Common Stock in the Reserve upon receipt of written notice, which may be in email form, by such Purchaser (and/or its assigns) in order to ensure that the Reserve contains the Reserve Minimum and/or at any time the number of shares in the Reserve is less than the Reserve Minimum. Notwithstanding to the contrary provided herein or elsewhere, if at any time the number of shares of Common Stock in the Reserve, is less than the Required Reserved Amount, such Purchaser may send written notice to the Company’s then Transfer Agent to increase out of the Borrower’s authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock in such number of additional shares of Common Stock so the Reserve consists of at least the Required Reserve Amount, provided, that the number of shares of Common Stock in the Reserve shall never be decreased or used for any other purposes other than for issue to the Holder upon each conversion by such Purchaser of the Note and each exercise by such Purchaser of the Warrant into shares of common stock. As a condition to Closing, all actions required by the Company in this Section shall be approved by the unanimous written consent of the Company’s Board of Directors which shall be delivered to the Purchasers at Closing.

4.11 Subsequent Equity Sales . In addition to the limitations set forth herein, from the date hereof until such time as no Purchaser holds any of the Securities (other than as provided for in the August 2017 Transaction Documents Amendment), the Company shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any subsequent financing involving a “ Variable Rate Transaction ” or an “ MFN Transaction ” (each as defined below). The term “ Variable Rate Transaction ” shall mean a transaction in which the Company issues or sells (i) any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive additional shares of Common Stock either (A) at a conversion, exercise or exchange rate or other price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities, or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the Common Stock or (ii) enters into any agreements, including but not limited to an equity line of credit, whereby the Company may sell securities at a future determined price tied to the market price of the Common Stock. The term “ MFN Transaction ” shall mean a transaction in which the Company issues or sells any securities in a capital raising transaction or series of related transactions which grants to an investor the right to receive additional shares based upon future transactions of the Company on terms more favorable than those granted to such investor in such offering. Any Purchaser shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.11 shall not apply in respect of an Exempt Issuance, except that no Variable Rate Transaction or MFN Transaction (other than in connection with the August 2017 Transaction Documents Amendment or the existing outstanding Series A Preferred Stock) shall be an Exempt Issuance.

 

4.12 Equal Treatment of Purchasers . No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents. Further, the Company shall not make any payment of principal or interest on the Notes in amounts which are disproportionate to the respective principal amounts outstanding on the Notes at any applicable time. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Purchaser by the Company and negotiated separately by each Purchaser,and is intended for the Company to treat the Purchasers as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise.

 

4.13 Form D; Blue Sky Filings. The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof, promptly upon request of any Purchaser. The Company shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the Securities for, sale to the Purchasers at the Closing under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States,and shall provide evidence of such actions promptly upon request of any Purchaser.

 

4.14 Most Favored Nation Provision . Other than an Exempt Issuance, any time the Company effects a subsequent financing, each Purchaser may elect, in its sole discretion, to exchange all or some of its Notes and Warrants then held by it for the securities issued in a subsequent financing based on the then outstanding principal amount of the Note plus any other fees then owed by the Company to the Purchaser, and the effective price at which such securities are sold in such subsequent financing and the number of securities purchasable upon exercise by the Warrant.

4.15 Participation in Future Financing .

 

(a) From the date hereof until the date that is the eighteen month anniversary of the Closing Date, upon any issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for cash consideration, Indebtedness or a combination of units hereof in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act (a “Subsequent Financing”), each Purchaser shall have the right to participate in up to an amount of the Subsequent Financing equal to 130% of the amount invested hereunder (the “Participation Maximum”) on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the Subsequent Financing. At least five (5) Trading Days prior to the closing of the Subsequent Financing, the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser a written notice of its intention to effect a Subsequent Financing (“Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice shall ask such Purchaser if it wants to review the details of such financing (such additional notice, a “Subsequent Financing Notice”). Upon the request of a Purchaser, and only upon a request by such Purchaser, for a Subsequent Financing Notice, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1) Trading Day after such request, deliver a Subsequent Financing Notice to such Purchaser. The Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of proceeds intended to be raised thereunder and the Person or Persons through or with whom such Subsequent Financing is proposed to be effected and shall include a term sheet or similar document relating thereto as an attachment.

 

(b) Any Purchaser desiring to participate in such Subsequent Financing must provide written notice to the Company by not later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5 th ) Trading Day after all of the Purchasers have received the Pre-Notice that such Purchaser is willing to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the amount of such Purchaser’s participation, and representing and warranting that such Purchaser has such funds ready, willing, and available for investment on the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice. If the Company receives no such notice from a Purchaser as of such fifth (5 th ) Trading Day, such Purchaser shall be deemed to have notified the Company that it does not elect to participate.

 

(c) If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5 th ) Trading Day after all of the Purchasers have received the Pre-Notice, notifications by the Purchasers of their willingness to participate in the Subsequent Financing (or to cause their designees to participate) is, in the aggregate, less than the total amount of the Subsequent Financing, then the Company may effect the remaining portion of such Subsequent Financing on the terms and with the Persons set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice.

 

(d) If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5 th ) Trading Day after all of the Purchasers have received the Pre-Notice, the Company receives responses to a Subsequent Financing Notice from Purchasers seeking to purchase more than the aggregate amount of the Participation Maximum, each such Purchaser shall have the right to purchase its Pro Rata Portion (as defined below) of the Participation Maximum. “Pro Rata Portion” means the ratio of (x) the Subscription Amount of Securities purchased on the Closing Date by a Purchaser participating under this Section 4.15 and (y) the sum of the aggregate Subscription Amounts of Securities purchased on the Closing Date by all Purchasers participating under this Section 4.15.

 

(e) The Company must provide the Purchaser with a second Subsequent Financing Notice, and the Purchasers will again have the right of participation set forth above in this Section 4.15, if the Subsequent Financing subject to the initial Subsequent Financing Notice is not consummated for any reason on the terms set forth in such Subsequent Financing Notice within thirty (30) Trading Days after the date of the initial Subsequent Financing Notice.

 

 
Page 28 of 35
 
 

 

(f) The Company and each Purchaser agree that if any Purchaser elects to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the transaction documents related to the Subsequent Financing shall not include any term or provision whereby such Purchaser shall be required to agree to any restrictions on trading as to any of the Securities purchased hereunder or be required to consent to any amendment to or termination of, or grant any waiver, release or the like under or in connection with, this Agreement, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser.

 

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.15 and unless otherwise agreed to by such Purchaser, the Company shall either confirm in writing to such Purchaser that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the securities in the Subsequent Financing, in either case in such a manner such that such Purchaser will not be in possession of any material, non-public information, by the fifteenth (15 th ) Business Day following delivery of the Subsequent Financing Notice. If by such fifteenth (15 th ) Business Day, no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by such Purchaser, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and such Purchaser shall not be deemed to be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.15 shall not apply in respect of an Exempt Issuance or a public offering registered with the SEC.

 

4.16 Down Round Protection . If at any time commencing upon the date of the Mandatory Conversion of the Note and terminating on the six (6) month anniversary thereafter, if the Company sells or grants any option to purchase or sells or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or announces any sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition), any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then Conversion Price in Effect (such lower price, the “ Base Share Price ” and such issuances, collectively, a “ Dilutive Issuance ”) (if the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the Conversion Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price on such date of the Dilutive Issuance), then the Company shall issue to each Purchaser such number of additional shares of Common Stock equal to the difference between (i) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note at the Conversion Price, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note at the Base Share Price. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this Section 4.16 in respect of an Exempt Issuance. If the Company enters into a Variable Rate Transaction while the Purchaser holds any Securities, despite the prohibition set forth in Section 4.11, the Company shall be deemed to have issued Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at the lowest possible conversion price at which such securities may be converted or exercised. The Company shall notify the Purchaser in writing, no later than one (1) business day following the issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this Section, indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice, the “ Dilutive Issuance Notice ”).

Upon conversion of this Note as provided in Section 4(a), each Noteholder shall surrender its Note(s), appropriately endorsed, to the Company at its principal office, accompanied by written notice to the Company setting forth the name or names (with address(es)) in which the Conversion Shares shall be issued and registered on the books of the Company. On the Conversion Date, the Company shall deliver to Purchaser Common Stock in respect of the Notes to be converted. The Note(s) surrendered by the Noteholder shall be marked cancelled on the books of the Company as of the Conversion Date, whether or not surrendered. The Company shall have the right to cancel the Note(s) and issue to the Noteholder the Conversion Shares in the event that the Noteholder fails to promptly comply with the conversion procedures set forth above.

 

c) Conversion Price . The conversion price in effect on any Conversion Date shall be equal to $0.03 (the “ Conversion Price ”).

 

d) Conversion Limitations ; Holder’s Restriction on Conversion . The Company shall not effect any conversion of this Note, and the Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note, pursuant to Section 4(a) or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, the Holder (together with the Holder’s affiliates), as set forth on the applicable Notice of Conversion, would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining, nonconverted portion of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Notes or the Warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 4(c), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. To the extent that the limitation contained in this section applies, the determination of whether this Note is convertible (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder) and of which a portion of this Note is convertible shall be in the sole discretion of such Holder. To ensure compliance with this restriction, the Holder will be deemed to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Notice of Conversion that such Notice of Conversion has not violated the restrictions set forth in this paragraph and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. For purposes of this Section 4(c), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Company’s Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The provisions of this Section 4(c) may be waived by the Holder upon, at the election of the Holder, not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, and the provisions of this Section 4(c) shall continue to apply until such 61st day (or such later date, as determined by the Holder, as may be specified in such notice of waiver).

e) Mechanics of Conversion

 

i. Conversion Shares Issuable Upon Conversion of Principal Amount . The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal amount of this Note to be converted by (y) the Conversion Price. Pursuant to the terms of the Notice of Conversion, the Company will issue instructions to the Transfer Agent within two (2) business days of the Conversion Date accompanied by an opinion of counsel to Company of the Notice of Conversion.

 

ii. Delivery of Certificate Upon Conversion . Delivery of Certificate Upon Conversion . Not later than two Trading Days after each Conversion Date (the “ Share Delivery Date ”), the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Holder (A) a certificate or certificates representing the Conversion Shares which, on or after the earlier of (i) the six month anniversary of the Original Issue Date or (ii) the Effective Date, shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions (assuming compliance, and in accordance with, the Purchase Agreement) representing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion of this Note (including, if the Company has given continuous notice pursuant to Section 2(b) for payment of interest in shares of Common Stock at least 20 Trading Days prior to the date on which the Notice of Conversion is delivered to the Company, shares of Common Stock representing the payment of accrued interest otherwise determined pursuant to Section 2(a) but assuming that the Interest Notice Period is the 20 Trading Days period immediately prior to the date on which the Notice of Conversion is delivered to the Company and excluding for such issuance the condition that the Company deliver Interest Conversion Shares as to such interest payment) and (B) a bank check in the amount of accrued and unpaid interest (if the Company has elected or is required to pay accrued interest in cash). On or after the earlier of (i) the six month anniversary of the Original Issue Date or (ii) the Effective Date, the Company shall use its best efforts to deliver any certificate or certificates required to be delivered by the Company under this Section 4(d) electronically through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions (assuming compliance, and in accordance with, the Purchase Agreement).

 

iii. Failure to Deliver Certificates . If in the case of any Notice of Conversion such certificate or certificates are not delivered to or as directed by the applicable Holder by the second Trading Day after a Conversion Date, the Holder shall be entitled by written notice to the Company at any time on or before its receipt of such certificate or certificates thereafter, to rescind such conversion, in which event the Company shall immediately return the certificates representing the principal amount of Notes tendered for conversion.

iv. Obligation Absolute; Partial Liquidated Damages . If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 4(f)(ii) by the second Trading Day after the Conversion Date, the Company shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, of $1000 for each Trading Day after such second Trading Day until such certificates are delivered. In addition if the Company fails to deliver instructions to the Transfer Agent by the day required above, the Company shall be required to pay an additional amount in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, of $1,000 for each date until such notice is given to the Transfer Agent as required. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by the Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by the Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Company or any violation or alleged violation of law by the Holder or any other person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Company to the Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided , however , such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Company of any such action the Company may have against the Holder. In the event a Holder of this Note shall elect to convert any or all of the outstanding principal amount hereof, the Company may not refuse conversion based on any claim that the Holder or any one associated or affiliated with the Holder of has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless, an injunction from a court, on notice, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or part of this Note shall have been sought and obtained and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of the Holder in the amount of 150% of the principal amount of this Note outstanding, which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent it obtains judgment. In the absence of an injunction precluding the same, the Company shall issue Conversion Shares or, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8 herein for the Company’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Holders from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law. In the absence of such injunction, the Company shall issue Conversion Shares or, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 4(d)(ii) by the secondTrading Day after the Conversion Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of principal amount being converted, $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth (5 th ) Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such second ( 2nd ) Trading Day until such certificates are delivered. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8 hereof for the Company’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and the Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief. The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit the Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law

v. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Conversion . In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 4(f)(ii) by the second Trading Day after the Conversion Date, and if after such third Trading Day the Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Holder of the Conversion Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such conversion (a “ Buy-In ”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the amount by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder anticipated receiving from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale price of the Common Stock at the time of the sale (including brokerage commissions, if any) giving rise to such purchase obligation and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reissue Notes in principal amount equal to the principal amount of the attempted conversion or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its delivery requirements under Section 4(f)(ii). For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of Notes with respect to which the actual sale price of the Conversion Shares at the time of the sale (including brokerage commissions, if any) giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of $10,000 under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if a Holder requires the Company to make payment in respect of a Buy-In for the failure to timely deliver certificates hereunder and the Company timely pays in full such payment, the Company shall not be required to pay such Holder liquidated damages under Section 4(f)(iv) in respect of the certificates resulting in such Buy-In.

 

vi. Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion . The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock solely for the purpose of issuance upon conversion of the Notes and payment of interest on the Note and exercise of the Warrants, each as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase rights of persons other than the Holders, not less than such number of shares of the Common Stock as shall (subject to any additional requirements of the Company as to reservation of such shares set forth in the Purchase Agreement and the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions) be the number of shares issuable (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 5) upon the conversion of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes hereunder and under the Notes issuable under the Purchase Agreement and interest thereon and exercise of the Warrants. The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid, nonassessable.

 
 
Page 11 of 27
 
 

 

vii. Fractional Shares . Upon a conversion hereunder the Company shall not be required to issue stock certificates representing fractions of shares of the Common Stock, but may if otherwise permitted, make a cash payment in respect of any final fraction of a share based on the VWAP at such time. If the Company elects not, or is unable, to make such a cash payment, the Holder shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the final fraction of a share, one whole share of Common Stock.

 

f) Transfer Taxes. The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock on conversion of the Notes shall be made without charge to the Holders thereof for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificate, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holder of such Notes so converted and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person or persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

 

Section 5 . Certain Adjustments .

 

a) Stock Dividends and Stock Splits . If the Company, at any time while the Notes are outstanding: (A) shall pay a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to this Note, including as interest thereon), (B) subdivide outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (C) combine (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (D) issue by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

b) Subsequent Equity Sales . If the Company or any Subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time while this Note is outstanding shall offer, sell, grant any option to purchase or offer, sell or grant any right to reprice its securities, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock, at an effective price per share less than the then Conversion Price (such lower price, the “Base Share Price” and such issuances collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”), as adjusted hereunder (if the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which is issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share which is less than the Conversion Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price), then, the Conversion Price shall be reduced to equal the Base Share Price and the number of Conversion Shares issuable hereunder shall be increased. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued. The Company shall notify the Holder in writing, no later than the Trading Day following the issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this section, indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or of applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice the “Dilutive Issuance Notice”). For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Company provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section 5(b), upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, after the date of such Dilutive Issuance the Holder is entitled to receive a number of Conversion Shares based upon the Base Share Price regardless of whether the Holder accurately refers to the Base Share Price in the Notice of Conversion.

c) Pro Rata Distributions . If the Company, at any time while Notes are outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to Holders) evidences of its indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security, then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be determined by multiplying such Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such VWAP on such record date less the then fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement provided to the Holders of the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above.

 

d) Subsequent Rights Offerings . If the Company, at any time while the Note is outstanding, shall issue rights, options or warrants to all holders of Common Stock (and not to Holders) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is lower than the VWAP on the record date referenced below, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights or warrants plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered for subscription or purchase, and of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights or warrants plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares so offered (assuming delivery to the Company in full of all consideration payable upon exercise of such rights, options or warrants) would purchase at such VWAP. Such adjustment shall be made whenever such rights or warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants.

 

e) Fundamental Transaction . If, at any time while this Note is outstanding, (A) the Company effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (B) the Company effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, or (D) the Company effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a “ Fundamental Transaction ”), then upon any subsequent conversion of this Note, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion absent such Fundamental Transaction, the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of one share of Common Stock (the “ Alternate Consideration ”). For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of this Note following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder a new note consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right to convert such note into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this paragraph (c) and insuring that this Note (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.

f) Calculations . All calculations under this Section 5 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares of Common Stock owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the description of any such shares of Common Stock shall be considered on issue or sale of Common Stock. For purposes of this Section 5, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.

 

g) Notice to Holders .

 

i. Adjustment to Conversion Price . Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any of this Section 5, the Company shall promptly mail to each Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. If the Company issues a variable rate security, despite the prohibition thereon in the Purchase Agreement, the Company shall be deemed to have issued Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at the lowest possible conversion or exercise price at which such securities may be converted or exercised in the case of a Variable Rate Transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), or the lowest possible adjustment price in the case of an MFN Transaction (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

 

ii. Notice to Allow Conversion by Holder . If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on the Common Stock; (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock; (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights; (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, of any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property; (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company; then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of the Notes, and shall cause to be mailed to the Holders at their last addresses as they shall appear upon the stock books of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided , that the failure to mail such notice or any defect therein or in the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. Holders are entitled to convert Notes during the 20-day period commencing the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice.

h) Exempt Issuance . Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will be made under this Section 5 in respect of an Exempt Issuance.

 

Section 6 . Redemption; Automatic Conversion .

 

a) Optional Redemption at Election of Company . Subject to the provisions of this Section 6(a), at any time after Original Issue Date, the Company may, deliver a written notice to the Holder (an “ Optional Redemption Notice ” and the date such notice is deemed delivered hereunder, the “ Optional Redemption Notice Date ”) of its irrevocable election to redeem all of the then outstanding principal amount of this Note for cash in an amount equal to the Optional Redemption Amount on the 20 th Trading Day following the Optional Redemption Notice Date (such date, the “ Optional Redemption Date ”, such 20 Trading Day period, the “ Optional Redemption Period ” and such redemption, the “ Optional Redemption ”). The Optional Redemption Amount is payable in full on the Optional Redemption Date. The Company may only effect an Optional Redemption if each of the Equity Conditions shall have been met (unless waived in writing by the Holder) on each Trading Day during the period commencing on the Optional Redemption Notice Date through to the Optional Redemption Date and through and including the date payment of the Optional Redemption Amount is actually made in full. If any of the Equity Conditions shall cease to be satisfied at any time during the Optional Redemption Period, then the Holder may elect to nullify the Optional Redemption Notice by notice to the Company within 3 Trading Days after the first day on which any such Equity Condition has not been met (provided that if, by a provision of the Transaction Documents, the Company is obligated to notify the Holder of the nonexistence of an Equity Condition, such notice period shall be extended to the third Trading Day after proper notice from the Company) in which case the Optional Redemption Notice shall be null and void, ab initio . The Company covenants and agrees that it will honor all Notices of Conversion tendered from the time of delivery of the Optional Redemption Notice through the date all amounts owing thereon are due and paid in full. The Company’s determination to pay an Optional Redemption in cash shall be applied ratably to all of the holders of the then outstanding Notes based on their (or their predecessor’s) initial purchases of Notes pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

 
 
Page 15 of 27
 
 

 

b) Monthly Redemption . On each Monthly Redemption Date, the Company shall redeem the Monthly Redemption Amount (the “ Monthly Redemption ”). The Monthly Redemption Amount payable on each Monthly Redemption Date shall be paid in cash and shall equal 110% of the Monthly Redemption Amount; provided , however , as to any Monthly Redemption and upon 20 Trading Days’ prior written irrevocable notice (the “ Monthly Redemption Notice ”), in lieu of a cash redemption payment the Company may elect to pay all or part of a Monthly Redemption Amount in Conversion Shares based on a conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) the then Conversion Price and (ii) 75% of the average of the 5 lowest Closing Bid Prices for the 20 consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day that is immediately prior to the applicable Monthly Redemption Date (subject to adjustment for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other similar event affecting the Common Stock during such 20 Trading Day period) (the price calculated during the 20 Trading Day period immediately prior to the Monthly Redemption Date, the “ Monthly Conversion Price ” and such 20 Trading Day period, the “ Monthly Conversion Period ”); provided , further , that the Company may not pay the Monthly Redemption Amount in Conversion Shares unless (x) the aggregate Monthly Redemption Amount (as to Monthly Redemption Amounts payable with Conversion Shares) under all Notes to which are to receive Monthly Redemption Amounts as to such Monthly Redemption is less than 20% of the total dollar trading volume of the Common Stock for the 20 Trading Days prior to the applicable Monthly Redemption Date, (y) from the date the Holder receives the duly delivered Monthly Redemption Notice through and until the date such Monthly Redemption is paid in full, the Equity Conditions have been satisfied, unless waived in writing by the Holder, and (z) as to such Monthly Redemption, prior to such Monthly Conversion Period (but not more than 5 Trading Days prior to the commencement of the Monthly Conversion Period), the Company shall have delivered to the Holder’s account with The Depository Trust Company a number of shares of Common Stock to be applied against such Monthly Redemption Amount equal to the quotient of (x) the applicable Monthly Redemption Amount divided by (y) the lesser of (A) the Conversion Price and (B) 75% of the average of the 5 lowest Closing Bid Prices during the 20 Trading Day period ending on the 3 rd Trading Day immediately prior to the date of the Monthly Redemption Notice (the “ Pre-Redemption Conversion Shares ”). The Holder may convert, pursuant to Section 4(a), any principal amount of this Note subject to a Monthly Redemption at any time prior to the date that the Monthly Redemption Amount, plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and any other amounts then owing to the Holder are due and paid in full. Unless otherwise indicated by the Holder in the applicable Notice of Conversion, any principal amount of this Note converted during the applicable Monthly Conversion Period until the date the Monthly Redemption Amount is paid in full shall be first applied to the principal amount subject to the Monthly Redemption Amount payable in cash and then to the Monthly Redemption Amount payable in Conversion Shares. Any principal amount of this Note converted during the applicable Monthly Conversion Period in excess of the Monthly Redemption Amount shall be applied against the last principal amount of this Note scheduled to be redeemed hereunder, in reverse time order from the Maturity Date; provided , however , if any such conversion is applied against such Monthly Redemption Amount, the Pre-Redemption Conversion Shares, if any were issued in connection with such Monthly Redemption or were not already applied to such conversions, shall be first applied against such conversion. The Company covenants and agrees that it will honor all Notices of Conversion tendered up until such amounts are paid in full. The Company’s determination to pay a Monthly Redemption in cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof shall be applied ratably to all of the holders of the then outstanding Notes based on their (or their predecessor’s) initial purchases of Notes pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. At any time the Company delivers a notice to the Holder of its election to pay the Monthly Redemption Amount in shares of Common Stock, the Company shall file a prospectus supplement pursuant to Rule 424 disclosing such election. Holders, at their option, upon 5 days’ notice to the Company may postpone their right to receive an amortization payment on a Note to the Maturity Date of the Note.

c) Redemption Procedure . The payment of cash or issuance of Common Stock, as applicable, pursuant to an Optional Redemption or a Monthly Redemption or a Mandatory Prepayment shall be payable on the Optional Redemption Date and Monthly Redemption Date or Mandatory Prepayment Date, as applicable. If any portion of the payment pursuant to an Optional Redemption or Monthly Redemption or Mandatory Prepayment shall not be paid by the Company by the applicable due date, interest shall accrue thereon at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law until such amount is paid in full. Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, if any portion of the Optional Redemption Amount or Monthly Redemption Amount or Mandatory Prepayment remains unpaid after such date, the Holder may elect, by written notice to the Company given at any time thereafter, to invalidate such Optional Redemption or Monthly Redemption or Mandatory Prepayment, ab initio , and, with respect to the Company’s failure to honor the Optional Redemption, the Company shall have no further right to exercise such Optional Redemption. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, the Company’s determination to redeem in cash or its elections under Section 6(b) shall be applied ratably among the Holders of Notes. The Holder may elect to convert the outstanding principal amount of the Note pursuant to Section 4 prior to actual payment in cash for any redemption under this Section 6 by the delivery of a Notice of Conversion to the Company.

 

d) Automatic Conversion . Upon a Qualified Offering of equity securities in conjunction with an uplisting of the Common Stock onto the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ, subject to the provisions of subsections (x) and (y) of Section 4(b) hereof and such Holder not being required to enter into a lock-up agreement in respect of their shares, all outstanding Notes plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall automatically be converted into Common Stock at a 35% discount to the public offering price. No fractional shares are to be issued upon the conversion of this Note, but rather the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. To the extent that rounding up to the nearest whole number would result in a violation of Section 4(d)(vi), the Company shall pay the applicable converting Holder an amount in cash equal to the fractional share amount multiplied by the Closing Bid Price for the Common Stock on the such date of conversion. Such Automatic Conversions shall be subject to “down round protection” as provided in Section 4.16 of the Purchase Agreement.

 

e) Most Favored Nation .

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, but in any event prior to the applicable Effectiveness Date, until the first to occur of the date that all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement (i) have been sold, thereunder or pursuant to Rule 144, or (ii) may be sold without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 and without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144, as determined by the counsel to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter which shall be obtained at the company’s expense, to such effect, addressed, delivered and acceptable to the Transfer Agent and the affected Holders (assuming that such securities, any securities upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of or as a dividend upon which such securities were issued, or any securities issuable upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of, or as a dividend upon such securities, were at no time held by any Affiliate of the Company) (the “ Effectiveness Period ”). The Company shall immediately notify the Holders via facsimile or by e-mail of the effectiveness of a Registration Statement on the same Trading Day that the Company telephonically confirms effectiveness with the Commission, which shall be the date requested for effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Failure to so notify the Holder within 1 Trading Day of such notification shall be deemed an Event under Section 2(b). The Company shall, by 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time on the Trading Day after the effective date of such Registration Statement, file a final Prospectus with the Commission as required by Rule 424.

 

(c) Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in Section 2(a), if the Commission informs the Company that all of the Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the Company agrees to promptly inform each of the Holders thereof and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the initial Registration Statement as required by the Commission, covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered by the Commission; provided , however , that prior to filing such amendment, the Company shall be obligated to use diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities (in an amount consistent with the application of Rule 415 and in accordance with the SEC Guidance, including without limitation, Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation 612.09).

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement and subject to the payment of liquidated damages pursuant to Section 2(e), if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation on the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement (and notwithstanding that the Company used diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all or a greater portion of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in writing by a Holder as to its Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will first be reduced by Registrable Securities represented by Warrant Shares (applied, in the case that some Warrant Shares may be registered, to the Holders on a pro rata basis based on the total number of unregistered Warrant Shares held by such Holders), and second by Registrable Securities represented by Conversion Shares (applied, in the case that some Conversion Shares may be registered, to the Holders on a pro rata basis based on the total number of unregistered Conversion Shares held by such Holders); provided , however , that, prior to any reduction in the number of Registrable Securities included in a Registration Statement as set forth in this sentence, all shares of Common Stock held by any other person other than the Purchasers hereto shall be reduced first. In the event of a cutback hereunder, the Company shall give the Holder at least 5 Trading Days prior written notice along with the calculations as to such Holder’s allotment.

 

(e) If: (i) a Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to its Filing Date (if the Company files a Registration Statement without affording the Holders the opportunity to review and comment on the same as required by Section 3(a), the Company shall not be deemed to have satisfied this clause (i)), or (ii) the Company fails to file with the Commission a request for acceleration in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated under the Securities Act, within five Trading Days of the date that the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that a Registration Statement will not be “reviewed,” or not subject to further review; or (iii) prior to its Effectiveness Date, the Company fails to file a pre-effective amendment and otherwise respond in writing to comments made by the Commission in respect of such Registration Statement within 30 calendar days after the receipt of comments by or notice from the Commission that such amendment is required in order for a Registration Statement to be declared effective; or (iv) a Registration Statement filed or required to be filed hereunder is not declared effective by the Commission by its Effectiveness Date; or (v) after the Effectiveness Date, a Registration Statement ceases for any reason to remain continuously effective as to all Registrable Securities for which it is required to be effective, or the Holders are not permitted to utilize the Prospectus therein to resell such Registrable Securities for 10 consecutive calendar days but no more than an aggregate of 15 calendar days during any 12-month period (which need not be consecutive Trading Days) (any such failure or breach being referred to as an “ Event ”, and for purposes of clause (i) or (iv) the date on which such Event occurs, or for purposes of clause (ii) the date on which such five Trading Day period is exceeded, or for purposes of clause (iii) the date which such 30 calendar day period is exceeded, or for purposes of clause (v) the date on which such 10 or 15 calendar day period, as applicable, is exceeded being referred to as “ Event Date ”), then in addition to any other rights the Holders may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 10% of the outstanding principal of the Notes then held by such Holder for any Registrable Securities then held by such Holder for the first 30 days (or part thereof) after the 30 days, and an additional 10 % for any subsequent 30-day period (or part thereof), thereafter. In lieu of payment in cash, the Company may elect to pay all or part of any liquidated damages set forth in this Section in shares of common stock valued at 75% of the average of the 5 lowest Closing Bid Prices (as defined in the Notes) for the 20 consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day that is immediately prior to the applicable Event Date provided , however , that payment in shares of Common Stock may only occur if (i) all of the Equity Conditions (as defined in the Note) have been met (unless waived by the Holder in writing) during the 10 Trading Days immediately prior to the applicable Event Date and through and including the date such shares of Common Stock are actually issued to the Holder. If the Company fails to pay any partial liquidated damages pursuant to this Section in full within seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 24% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Holder, accruing daily from the date such partial liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. The partial liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro-rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an Event. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, total liquidated damages hereunder shall be capped at 18% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes.

3. Registration Procedures

 

In connection with the Company’s registration obligations hereunder, the Company shall:

 

(a) Not less than five Trading Days prior to the filing of each Registration Statement or any related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto (including any document that would be incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference), the Company shall, (i) furnish to each Holder copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents (other than those incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference) will be subject to the review of such Holders, and (ii) cause its officers and directors, counsel and independent certified public accountants to respond to such inquiries as shall be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of respective counsel to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act. The Company shall not file the Registration Statement or any such Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto to which the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities shall reasonably object in good faith, provided that, the Company is notified of such objection in writing no later than 5 Trading Days after the Holders have been so furnished copies of such documents and provided further that the Company will not be subject to the liquidated damages payments referenced in Section 2(b) if such objection is delivered to the Company within such five day period. Each Holder agrees to furnish to the Company a completed Questionnaire in the form attached to this Agreement as Annex B (a Selling Holder Questionnaire ) not less than two Trading Days prior to the Filing Date or by the end of the fourth Trading Day following the date on which such Holder receives draft materials in accordance with this Section.

 

(b) (i) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, to a Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep a Registration Statement continuously effective as to the applicable Registrable Securities for the Effectiveness Period and prepare and file with the Commission such additional Registration Statements in order to register for resale under the Securities Act all of the Registrable Securities; (ii) cause the related Prospectus to be amended or supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement (subject to the terms of this Agreement), and as so supplemented or amended to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; (iii) respond as promptly as reasonably possible to any comments received from the Commission with respect to a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto and as promptly as reasonably possible provide the Holders true and complete copies of all correspondence from and to the Commission relating to a Registration Statement; and (iv) comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement during the applicable period in accordance (subject to the terms of this Agreement) with the intended methods of disposition by the Holders thereof set forth in such Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so supplemented.

 

(c) If during the Effectiveness Period, the number of Registrable Securities at any time exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock then registered in a Registration Statement, then the Company shall file as soon as reasonably practicable but in any case prior to the applicable Filing Date, an additional Registration Statement covering the resale by the Holders of not less than such number of such Registrable Securities.

(d) Notify the Holders of Registrable Securities to be sold (which notice shall, pursuant to clauses (ii) through (vi) hereof, be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the requisite changes have been made) as promptly as reasonably possible (and, in the case of (i)(A) below, not less than five Trading Days prior to such filing) and (if requested by any such Person) confirm such notice in writing no later than one Trading Day following the day (i)(A) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement is proposed to be filed; (B) when the Commission notifies the Company whether there will be a “review” of such Registration Statement and whenever the Commission comments in writing on such Registration Statement (the Company shall provide true and complete copies thereof and all written responses thereto to each of the Holders); and (C) with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective; (ii) of any request by the Commission or any other Federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement covering any or all of the Registrable Securities or the initiation of any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose; (v) of the occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes the financial statements included in a Registration Statement ineligible for inclusion therein or any statement made in a Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to a Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of a Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and (vi) the occurrence or existence of any pending corporate development with respect to the Company that the Company believes may be material and that, in the determination of the Company, makes it not in the best interest of the Company to allow continued availability of the Registration Statement or Prospectus; provided that any and all of such information shall remain confidential to each Holder until such information otherwise becomes public, unless disclosure by a Holder is required by law; provided , further , notwithstanding each Holder’s agreement to keep such information confidential, the Holders make no acknowledgement that any such information is material, non-public information.

 

(e) Use its best efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued, obtain the withdrawal of (i)any order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, at the earliest practicable moment.

 

(f) Furnish to each Holder, without charge, at least one conformed copy of each such Registration Statement and each amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference to the extent requested by such Person, and all exhibits to the extent requested by such Person (including those previously furnished or incorporated by reference) promptly after the filing of such documents with the Commission.

 

(g) Promptly deliver to each Holder, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus or Prospectuses (including each form of prospectus) and each amendment or supplement thereto as such Persons may reasonably request in connection with resales by the Holder of Registrable Securities. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company hereby consents to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, except after the giving on any notice pursuant to Section 3(d).

(h) Prior to any resale of Registrable Securities by a Holder, use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from the Registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for the resale by the Holder under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as any Holder reasonably requests in writing, to keep each registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement; provided, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, subject the Company to any material tax in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject or file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction.

 

(i) If requested by the Holders, cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to a Registration Statement, which certificates shall be free, to the extent permitted by the Purchase Agreement, of all restrictive legends, and to enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names as any such Holders may request.

 

(j) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by this Section 3, as promptly as reasonably possible under the circumstances taking into account the Company’s good faith assessment of any adverse consequences to the Company and its stockholders of the premature disclosure of such event, prepare a supplement or amendment, including a post-effective amendment, to a Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered, neither a Registration Statement nor such Prospectus will contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If the Company notifies the Holders in accordance with clauses (ii) through (v) of Section 3(d) above to suspend the use of any Prospectus until the requisite changes to such Prospectus have been made, then the Holders shall suspend use of such Prospectus. The Company will use its best efforts to ensure that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed as promptly as is practicable. The Company shall be entitled to exercise its right under this Section 3(j) to suspend the availability of a Registration Statement and Prospectus, subject to the payment of partial liquidated damages pursuant to Section 2(b), for a period not to exceed 60 days (which need not be consecutive days) in any 12 month period.

 

(k) Comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission.

 

(l) The Company may require each selling Holder to furnish to the Company a certified statement as to the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and, if required by the Commission, the person thereof that has voting and dispositive control over the Shares. During any periods that the Company is unable to meet its obligations hereunder with respect to the registration of the Registrable Securities solely because any Holder fails to furnish such information within three Trading Days of the Company’s request, any liquidated damages that are accruing at such time as to such Holder only shall be tolled and any Event that may otherwise occur solely because of such delay shall be suspended as to such Holder only, until such information is delivered to the Company.

5. Indemnification

 

(a) Indemnification by the Company .

(b) Indemnification by Holders . Each Holder shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling Persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, to the extent arising out of or based solely upon: (x) such Holder’s failure to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act or (y) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (i) to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information so furnished in writing by such Holder to the Company specifically for inclusion in such Registration Statement or such Prospectus or (ii) to the extent that (1) such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder or such Holder’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement (it being understood that the Holder has approved Annex A hereto for this purpose), such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (2) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 3(d)(ii)-(vi), the use by such Holder of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company has notified such Holder in writing that the Prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Holder of the Advice contemplated in Section 6(d). In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

 

(c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings . If any Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought (the (“ Indemnifying Party ”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

 

An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall reasonably believe that a material conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, all reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten Trading Days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party; provided, that the Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for that portion of such fees and expenses applicable to such actions for which such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder, determined based upon the relative faults of the parties.

 

(d) Contribution . If a claim for indemnification under Section 5(a) or 5(b) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, any reasonable attorneys’ or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in accordance with its terms.

 

The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5(d), no Holder shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, except in the case of fraud by such Holder.

 

The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties.

 

6. Miscellaneous

 

(a) Remedies . In the event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder, of any of their obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the Company, as the case may be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company and each Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

(c) Compliance . Each Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.

 

(d) Discontinued Disposition .

The Company will use its best efforts to ensure that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed as promptly as it practicable. The Company agrees and acknowledges that any periods during which the Holder is required to discontinue the disposition of the Registrable Securities hereunder shall be subject to the provisions of Section 2(b).

 

(e) Piggy-Back Registrations . If at any time during the Effectiveness Period there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with the stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the Company shall send to each Holder a written notice of such determination and, if within fifteen days after the date of such notice, any such Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities such holder requests to be registered; provided, that, the Company shall not be required to register any Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 6(e) that are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act or that are the subject of a then effective Registration Statement.

 

(f) Amendments and Waivers . The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Company and the Holders of 50% or more of the then outstanding Registrable Securities. If a Registration Statement does not register all of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a waiver or amendment done in compliance with the previous sentence, then the number of Registrable Securities to be registered for each Holder shall be reduced pro rata among all Holders and each Holder shall have the right to designate which of its Registrable Securities shall be omitted from such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of a Holder or some Holders and that does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders may be given only by such Holder or Holders of all of the Registrable Securities to which such waiver or consent relates; provided , however , that the provisions of this sentence may not be amended, modified, or supplemented except in accordance with the provisions of the first sentence of this Section 6(f). No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to this Agreement.

Except as set forth on Schedule 6(i) , neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has previously entered into any agreement granting any registration rights with respect to any of its securities to any Person that have not been satisfied in full.

 

(j) Execution and Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature were the original thereof.

 

(k) Governing Law . All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be determined with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

 

(l) Cumulative Remedies . The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

 

(n) Headings . The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

 

(o) Independent Nature of Holders’ Obligations and Rights . The obligations of each Holder hereunder are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Holder hereunder, and no Holder shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Holder hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered at any closing, and no action taken by any Holder pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Holders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Holders are in any way acting in concert with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Holder shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Holder to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

Plan of Distribution

 

Each Selling Stockholder (the “ Selling Stockholders ”) of the securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on ____________ or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

 

 

· ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker‑dealer solicits purchasers;

 

 

 

 

· block trades in which the broker‑dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

 

 

 

· purchases by a broker‑dealer as principal and resale by the broker‑dealer for its account;

 

 

 

 

· an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

 

 

 

· privately negotiated transactions;

 

 

 

 

· settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;

 

 

 

 

· in transactions through broker‑dealers that agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;

 

 

 

 

· through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

 

 

 

· a combination of any such methods of sale; or

 

 

 

 

· any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The Selling Stockholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”), if available, rather than under this prospectus.

 

Broker‑dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers‑dealers to participate in sales. Broker‑dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker‑dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.

 

 
Page 15 of 19
 
 

 

In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Stockholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%).

 

The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the securities. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

Because Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders have advised us that there is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale securities by the Selling Stockholders.

 

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earliest of (i) one (1) year from the date the Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission, (ii) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (iii) the date on which all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

 

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of securities of the common stock by the Selling Stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

Accordingly, if there are, from time to time, changes to defined terms in the UCC that broaden the definitions, they are incorporated herein and if existing definitions in the UCC are broader than the amended definitions, the existing ones shall be controlling.

As an inducement for the Secured Parties to extend the loans as evidenced by the Notes and to secure the complete and timely payment, performance and discharge in full, as the case may be, of all of the Obligations, each Debtor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably pledges, grants and hypothecates on a first priority basis to the Secured Parties, to be shared on a first priority basis pari passu with the Holders of the August 2017 Notes, a security interest in and to, a lien upon and a right of set-off against all of their respective right, title and interest of whatsoever kind and nature in and to, the Collateral (a “ Security Interest ” and, collectively, the “ Security Interests ”). The proceeds received through enforcement of the liens and security interests granted and provided for in this Agreement shall be shared pro rata and on a pari passu basis among the Holders of the Notes and holders of the August 2017 Notes in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal and interest then outstanding under each of the Notes and August 2017 Notes, as is set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement.

(a) Each Debtor has the requisite corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other power and authority to enter into this Agreement and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder. The execution, delivery and performance by each Debtor of this Agreement and the filings contemplated therein have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of such Debtor and no further action is required by such Debtor. This Agreement has been duly executed by each Debtor. This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Debtor, enforceable against each Debtor in accordance with its terms except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and similar laws of general application relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and by general principles of equity.

 

(b) The Debtors have no place of business or offices where their respective books of account and records are kept (other than temporarily at the offices of its attorneys or accountants) or places where Collateral is stored or located, except as set forth on Schedule A attached hereto. Except as specifically set forth on Schedule A , each Debtor is the record owner of the real property where such Collateral is located, and there exist no mortgages or other liens on any such real property except for Permitted Liens (as defined in the Notes). Except as disclosed on Schedule A , none of such Collateral is in the possession of any consignee, bailee, warehouseman, agent or processor.

 

(c) Except for Permitted Liens (as defined in the Notes), the Liens created by the August 2017 Notes and as set forth on Schedule B attached hereto, the Debtors are the sole owner of the Collateral (except for non-exclusive licenses granted by any Debtor in the ordinary course of business), free and clear of any liens, security interests, encumbrances, rights or claims, and are fully authorized to grant the Security Interests. Except as set forth on Schedule C attached hereto, there is not on file in any governmental or regulatory authority, agency or recording office an effective financing statement, security agreement, license or transfer or any notice of any of the foregoing (other than those that will be filed in favor of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and currently on file in favor of the holders of the August 2017 Notes) covering or affecting any of the Collateral. Except as set forth on Schedule C attached hereto and except pursuant to this Agreement, as long as this Agreement shall be in effect, the Debtors shall not execute and shall not knowingly permit to be on file in any such office or agency any other financing statement or other document or instrument (except to the extent filed or recorded in favor of the Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the holders of the August 2017 Notes), it being understood that the Secured Parties shall share the first-lien pari passu with the August 2017 Notes, governed by the Intercreditor Agreement.

(d) No written claim has been received that any Collateral or any Debtor’s use of any Collateral violates the rights of any third party. There has been no adverse decision to any Debtor’s claim of ownership rights in or exclusive rights to use the Collateral in any jurisdiction or to any Debtor’s right to keep and maintain such Collateral in full force and effect, and there is no proceeding involving said rights pending or, to the best knowledge of any Debtor, threatened before any court, judicial body, administrative or regulatory agency, arbitrator or other governmental authority.

Each Debtor agrees that sales so made may be at prices and on terms less favorable than if the Pledged Securities were sold to the public, and that Agent has no obligation to delay the sale of any Pledged Securities for the period of time necessary to register the Pledged Securities for sale to the public under the Securities Laws. Each Debtor shall cooperate with Agent in its attempt to satisfy any requirements under the Securities Laws (including, without limitation, registration thereunder if requested by Agent) applicable to the sale of the Pledged Securities by Agent.

The Debtors assume all liabilities and responsibility in connection with all Collateral, and the Obligations shall in no way be affected or diminished by reason of the loss, destruction, damage or theft of any of the Collateral or its unavailability for any reason. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) neither the Agent nor any Secured Party (i) has any duty (either before or after an Event of Default) to collect any amounts in respect of the Collateral or to preserve any rights relating to the Collateral, or (ii) has any obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale, and (b) each Debtor shall remain obligated and liable under each contract or agreement included in the Collateral to be observed or performed by such Debtor thereunder. Neither the Agent nor any Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any such contract or agreement by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Agent or any Secured Party of any payment relating to any of the Collateral, nor shall the Agent or any Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Debtor under or pursuant to any such contract or agreement, to make inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Agent or any Secured Party in respect of the Collateral or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any such contract or agreement, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to the Agent or to which the Agent or any Secured Party may be entitled at any time or times.

13. Security Interests Absolute . All rights of the Secured Parties and all obligations of the Debtors hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Notes or any agreement entered into in connection with the foregoing, or any portion hereof or thereof; (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment or performance of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Notes or any other agreement entered into in connection with the foregoing; (c) any exchange, release or nonperfection of any of the Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other collateral for, or any guarantee, or any other security, for all or any of the Obligations; (d) any action by the Secured Parties to obtain, adjust, settle and cancel in its sole discretion any insurance claims or matters made or arising in connection with the Collateral; or (e) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute any legal or equitable defense available to a Debtor, or a discharge of all or any part of the Security Interests granted hereby. Until the Obligations shall have been paid and performed in full, the rights of the Secured Parties shall continue even if the Obligations are barred for any reason, including, without limitation, the running of the statute of limitations or bankruptcy. Each Debtor expressly waives presentment, protest, notice of protest, demand, notice of nonpayment and demand for performance. In the event that at any time any transfer of any Collateral or any payment received by the Secured Parties hereunder shall be deemed by final order of a court of competent jurisdiction to have been a voidable preference or fraudulent conveyance under the bankruptcy or insolvency laws of the United States, or shall be deemed to be otherwise due to any party other than the Secured Parties, then, in any such event, each Debtor’s obligations hereunder shall survive cancellation of this Agreement, and shall not be discharged or satisfied by any prior payment thereof and/or cancellation of this Agreement, but shall remain a valid and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof. Each Debtor waives all right to require the Secured Parties to proceed against any other person or entity or to apply any Collateral which the Secured Parties may hold at any time, or to marshal assets, or to pursue any other remedy. Each Debtor waives any defense arising by reason of the application of the statute of limitations to any obligation secured hereby.

SECURITY

AGREEMENT

 

THE AGENT

 

1. Appointment . The Secured Parties (all capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings provided in the Security Agreement to which this Annex B is attached (the “ Agreement ”)), by their acceptance of the benefits of the Agreement, hereby designate Puritan Partners, LLC (“ Puritan ” or “ Agent ”) as the Agent to act as specified herein and in the Agreement. Each Secured Party shall be deemed irrevocably to authorize the Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of the Agreement and any other Transaction Document (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through its agents or employees.

 

2. Nature of Duties . The Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in the Agreement. Neither the Agent nor any of its partners, members, shareholders, officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for any action taken or omitted by it as such under the Agreement or hereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, be responsible for the consequence of any oversight or error of judgment or answerable for any loss, unless caused solely by its or their gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final judgment (not subject to further appeal) of a court of competent jurisdiction. The duties of the Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; the Agent shall not have by reason of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Debtor or any Secured Party; and nothing in the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Agent any obligations in respect of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document except as expressly set forth herein and therein.

 

3. Lack of Reliance on the Agent . Independently and without reliance upon the Agent, each Secured Party, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Company and its subsidiaries in connection with such Secured Party’s investment in the Debtors, the creation and continuance of the Obligations, the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and the taking or not taking of any action in connection therewith, and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Company and its subsidiaries, and of the value of the Collateral from time to time, and the Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Secured Party with any credit, market or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before any Obligations are incurred or at any time or times thereafter. The Agent shall not be responsible to the Debtors or any Secured Party for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith, or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectibility, priority or sufficiency of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or for the financial condition of the Debtors or the value of any of the Collateral, or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or the financial condition of the Debtors, or the value of any of the Collateral, or the existence or possible existence of any default or Event of Default under the Agreement, the Notes or any of the other Transaction Documents.

 

4. Certain Rights of the Agent . The Agent shall have the right to take any action with respect to the Collateral, on behalf of all of the Secured Parties. To the extent practical, the Agent shall request instructions from the Secured Parties with respect to any material act or action (including failure to act) in connection with the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, and shall be entitled to act or refrain from acting in accordance with the instructions of a Majority in Interest; if such instructions are not provided despite the Agent’s request therefor, the Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action, and if such action is taken, shall be entitled to appropriate indemnification from the Secured Parties in respect of actions to be taken by the Agent; and the Agent shall not incur liability to any person or entity by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, (a) no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Agent as a result of the Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the terms of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, and the Debtors shall have no right to question or challenge the authority of, or the instructions given to, the Agent pursuant to the foregoing and (b) the Agent shall not be required to take any action which the Agent believes (i) could reasonably be expected to expose it to personal liability or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or applicable law.

 
 
29
 
 

 

5. Reliance . The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, telex, teletype or telecopier message, cablegram, radiogram, order or other document or telephone message signed, sent or made by the proper person or entity, and, with respect to all legal matters pertaining to the Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and its duties thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it and upon all other matters pertaining to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and its duties thereunder, upon advice of other experts selected by it. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, the Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Secured Party to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Debtors or is cared for, protected or insured or that the liens granted pursuant to the Agreement have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority.

 

6. Indemnification . To the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Debtors, the Secured Parties will jointly and severally reimburse and indemnify the Agent, in proportion to their initially purchased respective principal amounts of Notes, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in performing its duties hereunder or under the Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or in any way relating to or arising out of the Agreement or any other Transaction Document except for those determined by a final judgment (not subject to further appeal) of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from the Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Prior to taking any action hereunder as Agent, the Agent may require each Secured Party to deposit with it sufficient sums as it determines in good faith is necessary to protect the Agent for costs and expenses associated with taking such action.

 

7. Resignation by the Agent .

 

(a) The Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties under the Agreement and the other Transaction Documents at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice (as provided in the Agreement) to the Debtors and the Secured Parties. Such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Agent pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) below.

 

(b) Upon any such notice of resignation, the Secured Parties, acting by a Majority in Interest, shall appoint a successor Agent hereunder.

 

(c) If a successor Agent shall not have been so appointed within said 30-day period, the Agent shall then appoint a successor Agent who shall serve as Agent until such time, if any, as the Secured Parties appoint a successor Agent as provided above. If a successor Agent has not been appointed within such 30-day period, the Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction or may interplead the Debtors and the Secured Parties in a proceeding for the appointment of a successor Agent, and all fees, including, but not limited to, extraordinary fees associated with the filing of interpleader and expenses associated therewith, shall be payable by the Debtors on demand.

 

8. Rights with respect to Collateral . Each Secured Party agrees with all other Secured Parties and the Agent (i) that it shall not, and shall not attempt to, exercise any rights with respect to its security interest in the Collateral, whether pursuant to any other agreement or otherwise (other than pursuant to this Agreement), or take or institute any action against the Agent or any of the other Secured Parties in respect of the Collateral or its rights hereunder (other than any such action arising from the breach of this Agreement) and (ii) that such Secured Party has no other rights with respect to the Collateral other than as set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Agreement. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of the Agreement including this Annex B shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent.

Debtors’ Intellectual Property does not, to the best of our knowledge, infringe, violate or misappropriate the intellectual property rights of any third parties where such infringement would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the date hereof, no third party has claimed or asserted in writing the right to use, in connection with similar or closely related goods and in the same geographic area, any mark which is identical or confusingly similar to the Debtors’ Trademarks. No third party has asserted in writing ownership rights in the Intellectual Property that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and Debtors have not licensed or sublicensed any third party to use the Debtors’ material Intellectual Property. The use of the Debtors’ material Intellectual Property in the Debtors’ business does not, to the best of our knowledge, infringe any right of any third party where such infringement would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the date hereof, no third party is infringing any of the Intellectual Property except where such infringement would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each of the Debtors has the legal right to use the Intellectual Property currently used by such Debtor. The Intellectual Property constitutes all of the intangible property necessary and sufficient for the Debtors to conduct their businesses consistent with past practices and as presently conducted.

COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

 

ONCOLIX, INC.

 

Warrant Shares: ______

Initial Exercise Date: June 1, 2018

 

THIS COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, _____________________________________, or its assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the date hereof (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and on or prior to the close of business on the five (5) year anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date (the “Termination Date”) but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from Oncolix, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), up to _______________________________________________ shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) (subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Warrant Shares”). The purchase price of one Warrant Share under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).

 

Section 1 . Definitions . Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated June 1, 2018, among the Company and the Purchasers.

 

Section 2 . Exercise .

 

(a) Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the registered Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company) of a duly executed facsimile copy of the Notice of Exercise Form annexed hereto. Within two (2) Trading Days following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a

(b) United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2(c) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (although the Holder may surrender the Warrant to, and receive a replacement Warrant from, the Company), the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise Form within one (1) Trading Day of delivery of such notice. The Holder by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledges and agrees that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

 

(c) Exercise Price . The exercise price per share of the Common Stock under this Warrant shall initially be equal to $0.036, subject to adjustment as described herein) (the “Exercise Price”).

 

(d) Cashless Exercise . If at any time after the Initial Exercise Date, there is no effective Registration Statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised at the Holder’s election, in whole or in part and in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A x B) – (A x C)] by (B), where:

 

(A) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise;

 

(B) = the greater of (i) the arithmetic average of the VWAPs for the five (5) consecutive Trading Days ending on the date immediately preceding the date on which the Holder elects to exercise this Warrant by means of a “cashless exercise,” as set forth in the applicable Notice of Exercise or (ii) the VWAP for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date on which the Holder makes such “cashless exercise” election; and

 

(C) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder, at the time of such exercise.

 

“VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by OTC Markets, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the characteristics of the Warrants being exercised, and the holding period of the Warrants being exercised may be tacked on to the holding period of the Warrant Shares. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 2(c).

 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if on the Termination Date (unless the Holder notifies the Company otherwise) if there is no effective Registration Statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant shall be automatically exercised via cashless exercise pursuant to this Section 2(c).

 

(d) Mechanics of Exercise .

 

(i) Delivery of Certificates Upon Exercise . Certificates for shares purchased hereunder shall be transmitted to the Holder by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) this Warrant is being exercised via cashless exercise and Rule 144 is available in either case complying with the transfer restrictions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, and otherwise by physical delivery to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is two (2) Trading Days (five (5) Trading Days for addresses outside of the Continental United States) after the latest of (A) the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise and (B) payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as set forth above (unless by cashless exercise, if permitted) (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). The Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised, with payment to the Company of the Exercise Price (or by cashless exercise, if permitted) and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 2(d)(vi) prior to the issuance of such shares, having been paid. The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Warrant Shares after the Warrant Share Delivery Date could result in economic loss to the Holder. As compensation to the Holder for such loss, the Company agrees to pay (as liquidated damages and not as a penalty) to the Holder for late issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant the proportionate amount of $10 per trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day after the fifth (5 th ) Trading Day) after the Warrant Share Delivery Date for each $1,000 of Exercise Price of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercised which are not timely delivered. In no event shall liquidated damages for any one transaction exceed $1,000.00 for the first ten Trading Days. The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section 2(d)(i) in immediately available funds upon demand. Furthermore, in addition to any other remedies which may be available to the Holder, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Warrant Shares by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Holder may revoke all or part of the relevant Warrant exercise by delivery of a notice to such effect to the Company, whereupon the Company and the Holder shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the exercise of the relevant portion of this Warrant, except that the liquidated damages described above shall be payable through the date notice of revocation or rescission is given to the Company.

 
 
Page 3 of 17
 
 

 

(ii) Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise . If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical to this Warrant.

 

(iii) Rescission Rights . If the Company fails to deliver the Warrant Shares cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or the certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right, at any time prior to issuance of such Warrant Shares, to rescind such exercise.

 

(iv) Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Exercise . In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to deliver the Warrant Shares, or cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or the certificates representing the Warrant Shares pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

(v) No Fractional Shares or Scrip . No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.

 
 
Page 4 of 17
 
 

 

(vi) Charges, Taxes and Expenses . Issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such certificate including any charges of any clearing firm, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided , however , that in the event certificates for Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise.

 

(vii) Closing of Books . The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

(e) Holder’s Exercise Limitations . The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior notice to the Company, may increase the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(e) solely with respect to the Holder’s Warrant, provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2(e) shall continue to apply. Any such increase will not be effective until the 61 st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The Holder may also decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(e) solely with respect to the Holder’s Warrant at any time, which decrease shall be effectively immediately upon delivery of notice to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

Section 3 . Certain Adjustments .

 

(a) Stock Dividends and Splits . If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

 

(b) Adjustments for Issuance of Additional Securities. In the event that the Company shall, at any time after the issuance date, issue or sell any additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (hereafter defined) (“Additional Shares of Common Stock”), in a transaction other than an Exempt Issuance or an underwritten public offering, at a price per share less than the Exercise Price then in effect or without consideration (a “Dilutive Issuance” based on a “Dilutive Issuance Price”), then the Exercise Price upon each such issuance shall be reduced to the Dilutive Issuance Price, and the number of Warrant Shares (excluding Warrant Shares previously exercised) shall be increased on a full ratchet basis to the number of shares of Common Stock determined by multiplying the Exercise Price then in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares (excluding Warrant Shares previously exercised) acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment. By way of example, if E is the total number of Warrant Shares in effect immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance, F is the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance, and G is the Dilutive Issuance Price, the adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares can be expressed in the following formula: Total number of Warrant Shares after such Dilutive Issuance = the quotient obtained from dividing [E x F] by G.

 
 
Page 6 of 17
 
 

 

If the price per share for which Additional Shares of Common Stock are sold, or may be issuable pursuant to any such Common Stock Equivalent, is less than the applicable Exercise Price then in effect, or if, after any such issuance of Common Stock Equivalents, the price per share for which Additional Shares of Common Stock may be issuable thereafter is amended or adjusted, and such price as so amended shall be less than the applicable Exercise Price in effect at the time of such amendment or adjustment, then the applicable Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted upon each such issuance or amendment as provided in this Section 3(b). In case any Common Stock Equivalent is issued in connection with the issue or sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising one integrated transaction, (x) the Common Stock Equivalents will be deemed to have been issued for the Option Value of such Common Stock Equivalents and (y) the other securities issued or sold in such integrated transaction shall be deemed to have been issued or sold for the difference of (I) the aggregate consideration received by the Company less any consideration paid or payable by the Company pursuant to the terms of such other securities of the Company, less (II) the Option Value. If any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold for cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company will be deemed to be the net amount received by the Company therefor. If any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of such consideration received by the Company 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 the Company will be the VWAP of such public traded securities on the date of receipt. If any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued to the owners of the non-surviving entity in connection with any merger in which the Company 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 or Common Stock Equivalents, as the case may be.

 

“Common Stock Equivalents” means any rights or warrants or options to purchase any Common Stock or Convertible Securities.

 

“Option Value” means the value of a Common Stock Equivalent based on the Black Scholes Option Pricing model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg L.P. determined as of (A) the Trading Day prior to the public announcement of the issuance of the applicable Common Stock Equivalent, if the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalent is publicly announced or (B) the Trading Day immediately following the issuance of the applicable Common Stock Equivalent if the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalent is not publicly announced, for pricing purposes and reflecting (i) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the remaining term of the applicable Common Stock Equivalent as of the applicable date of determination, (ii) an expected volatility equal to the greater of 100% and the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg L.P. as of (A) the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable Common Stock Equivalent if the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalent is publicly announced or (B) the Trading Day immediately following the issuance of the applicable Common Stock Equivalent if the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalent is not publicly announced, (iii) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the highest VWAP of the Common Stock during the period beginning on the Trading Day prior to the execution of definitive documentation relating to the issuance of the applicable Common Stock Equivalent and ending on (A) the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of such issuance, if the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalent is publicly announced or (B) the Trading Day immediately following the issuance of the applicable Common Stock Equivalent if the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalent is not publicly announced, (iv) a zero cost of borrow and (v) a 360 day annualization factor.

The provisions of this Section 3(b) shall apply each time the Company, at any time after the Original Issuance Date, shall issue any securities with a Dilutive Issuance Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 3(b) with respect to an Exempt Issuance (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

 

(c) Adjustment upon Event of Default . At any time from the Initial Exercise Date until the Termination Date that, due to the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Note), the Default Conversion Price (as defined in the Notes) is in effect, the Exercise Price of this Warrant shall be reduced to the Default Conversion Price, if any. The Company shall give the Holder prompt written notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default.

 

(d) Subsequent Rights Offerings . In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Purchase Rights will be made under this Section 3(d) in respect of an Exempt Issuance.

 

(e) Pro Rata Distributions . If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holder) evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security other than the Common Stock (which shall be subject to Section 3(c)), then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such VWAP on such record date less the then per share fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith. In either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement provided to the Holder of the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above.

(f) Fundamental Transaction . If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation on the exercise of this Warrant), at the option of the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction or (ii) the positive difference between the cash per share paid in such Fundamental Transaction minus the then in effect Exercise Price. “Black Scholes Value” means the value of the unexercised portion of this Warrant based on the Black and Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg L.P. determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date,(B) an expected volatility equal to the greater of 100% and the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg L.P. as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the sum of the price per share being offered in cash, if any, plus the value of any non-cash consideration, if any, being offered in such Fundamental Transaction and (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(e) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and approved by the Holder (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation on the exercise of this Warrant), and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 3(f) with respect to an Exempt Issuance (as defined in the Purchase Agreement)

(g) Calculations . All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.

 

(h) Notice to Holder .

 

(i) Adjustment to Exercise Price . Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly email to the Holder a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. The Holder may supply an email address to the Company and change such address.

 

(ii) Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder . If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall deliver to the Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to email such notice or any defect therein or in the emailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries (as determined in good faith by the Company), the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.

Section 4 . Transfer of Warrant .

 

(a) Transferability . Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the provisions of the Purchase Agreement, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation, any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.

 

(b) New Warrants . This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the initial issuance date of this Warrant and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.

 

(c) Warrant Register . The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

Section 5 . Miscellaneous .

 

(a) No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise . This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof other than as explicitly set forth in Section 3.

 

(b) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant . The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

 

(c) Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc . If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Trading Day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Trading Day.

 

(d) Authorized Shares . The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock, free of preemptive rights the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combination and similar events. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of any Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

 

In addition to any other remedies provided by this Warrant or the Purchase Agreement, if the Company at any time fails to meet this reservation of Common Stock requirement within 10 days after written notice from the Holder, it shall pay the Holder as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty a sum equal to $500 per day for each $100,000 of such Holder’s Subscription Amount (or the Subscription Amount of the original Purchaser) and it shall sell to the Holder for $100 a series of Common stock which contains the power to vote a number of votes equal to 51% of the number of votes eligible to vote at any special or annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders (with the power to take action by written consent in lieu of a shareholders meeting) for the sole purpose of amending the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to increase its authorized Common Stock. The Company shall not enter into any agreement or file any amendment to its Articles of Incorporation (including the filing of a Certificate of Designation) which conflicts with this Section 5(d) while the Notes (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) and Warrants remain outstanding.

Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use best efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

 

Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

 

(e) Jurisdiction . All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

 

(f) Restrictions . The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered or if not exercised on a cashless basis when Rule 144 is available, may have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.

 

(g) Non-waiver and Expenses . No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant or the Purchase Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

 

(h) Notices . Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

 

(i) Limitation of Liability . No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

 
 
Page 13 of 17
 
 

 

(j) Remedies . The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate or that there is no irreparable harm and not to require the posting of a bond or other security.

 

(k) Successors and Assigns . Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.

 

(l) Amendment . This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and Holders of a majority of the then outstanding Warrants issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

 

(m) Severability . Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

 

(n) Headings . The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.

(i) The Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantee to the Purchasers and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations.

 

(ii) Anything herein or in any other Transaction Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable federal and state laws, including laws relating to the insolvency of debtors, fraudulent conveyance or transfer or laws affecting the rights of creditors generally (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 2(b)).

 

(iii) Each Guarantor agrees that the Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder without impairing the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or affecting the rights and remedies of the Purchasers hereunder.

 

(iv) The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall remain in full force and effect until all the Obligations and the obligations of each Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall have been satisfied by indefeasible payment in full.

(v) No payment made by the Company, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Purchasers from the Company, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Obligations), remain liable for the Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full.

 

(vi) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Guarantee, with respect to any defaulted non-monetary Obligations the specific performance of which by the Guarantors is not reasonably possible (e.g. the issuance of the Company's Common Stock), the Guarantors shall only be liable for making the Purchasers whole on a monetary basis for the Company's failure to perform such Obligations in accordance with the Transaction Documents.

 

(b) Right of Contribution . Subject to Section 2(c), each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor's right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2(c). The provisions of this Section 2(b) shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Purchasers and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Purchasers for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

 

(c) No Subrogation . Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by the Purchasers, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Purchasers against the Company or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Purchasers for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Company or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Purchasers by the Company on account of the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Purchasers, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Purchasers in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Purchasers, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Purchasers may determine.

(d) Amendments, Etc. With Respect to the Obligations . Each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Purchasers may be rescinded by the Purchasers and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Purchasers, and the Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Purchasers may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Purchasers for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. The Purchasers shall have no obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by them as security for the Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or any property subject thereto.

 

(e) Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional . Each Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Purchasers upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Section 2; the Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2; and all dealings between the Company and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Purchasers, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2. Each Guarantor waives to the extent permitted by law diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Company or any of the Guarantors with respect to the Obligations. Each Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment and performance without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Document, any of the Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Purchasers, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance or fraud by Purchasers) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Company or any other Person against the Purchasers, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Company or such Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Company for the Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the Purchasers may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as they may have against the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Purchasers to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Purchasers against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof, “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

The Guarantor has no subsidiaries other than those identified as such on the Disclosure Schedules to the Purchase Agreement. The Guarantor is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the case may be, could not, individually or in the aggregate, (x) adversely affect the legality, validity or enforceability of any of this Guaranty in any material respect, (y) have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, assets, prospects, or financial condition of the Guarantor or (z) adversely impair in any material respect the Guarantor's ability to perform fully on a timely basis its obligations under this Guaranty (a “ Material Adverse Effect ”).

 

(b) Authorization; Enforcement . The Guarantor has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Guaranty, and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder. The execution and delivery of this Guaranty by the Guarantor and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of the Guarantor. This Guaranty has been duly executed and delivered by the Guarantor and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Guarantor enforceable against the Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditors' rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application.

 

(c) No Conflicts . The execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty by the Guarantor and the consummation by the Guarantor of the transactions contemplated thereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or violate any provision of its Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws or (ii) conflict with, constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Guarantor is a party that has not been waived, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction of any court or governmental authority to which the Guarantor is subject (including Federal and State securities laws and regulations), or by which any material property or asset of the Guarantor is bound or affected that has not been waived, except in the case of each of clauses (ii) and (iii), such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, accelerations, cancellations and violations as could not, individually or in the aggregate, have or result in a Material Adverse Effect. The business of the Guarantor is not being conducted in violation of any law, ordinance or regulation of any governmental authority, except for violations which, individually or in the aggregate, do not have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

 
6
 
 

 

(d) Consents and Approvals . The Guarantor is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local, foreign or other governmental authority or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Guarantor of this Guaranty.

 

(e) Purchase Agreement . The representations and warranties of the Company set forth in the Purchase Agreement as they relate to such Guarantor, each of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference, are true and correct as of each time such representations are deemed to be made pursuant to such Purchase Agreement, and the Purchasers shall be entitled to rely on each of them as if they were fully set forth herein, provided that each reference in each such representation and warranty to the Company's knowledge shall, for the purposes of this Section 3, be deemed to be a reference to such Guarantor's knowledge.

 

(f) Foreign Law . Each Guarantor has consulted with appropriate foreign legal counsel with respect to any of the above representations for which non-U.S. law is applicable. Such foreign counsel have advised each applicable Guarantor that such counsel knows of no reason why any of the above representations would not be true and accurate. Such foreign counsel were provided with copies of this Subsidiary Guarantee and the Transaction Documents prior to rendering their advice.

 

4. Covenants .

 

(a) Each Guarantor covenants and agrees with the Purchasers that, from and after the date of this Guarantee until the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, such Guarantor shall take, and/or shall refrain from taking, as the case may be, each commercially reasonable action that is necessary to be taken or not taken, as the case may be, so that no Event of Default (as defined in the Notes) is caused by the failure to take such action or to refrain from taking such action by such Guarantor.

 

(b) So long as any of the Obligations are outstanding, unless the Majority Holders shall otherwise consent in writing, each Guarantor will not directly or indirectly on or after the date of this Guarantee:

 

i. enter into, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any indebtedness for borrowed money of any kind, including but not limited to, a guarantee, on or with respect to any of its property or assets now owned or hereafter acquired or any interest therein or any income or profits therefrom, other than Permitted Indebtedness;

8
 
 

 

(c) No Waiver By Course Of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies . The Purchasers shall not by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 5(a)), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any default under the Transaction Documents or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Purchasers, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Purchasers of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Purchasers would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

The Purchasers shall notify such Guarantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made by the Purchasers of the proceeds thereof, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Purchasers under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Purchasers may have.

 

(g) Counterparts . This Guarantee may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Guarantee on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

 

(h) Severability . Any provision of this Guarantee which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

(i) Section Headings . The Section headings used in this Guarantee are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

EXHIBIT 10.9

 

INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT

 

This INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is executed effective as of June 1, 2018, by and between the holders of $4,190,463 million principal amount of notes originally issued on August 3, 2017, as amended as of the date hereof (“August 2017 Notes”), holders of up to $3.0 million principal amount of notes originally issued on June 1, 2018 (“May 2018 Notes” and collectively with the August 2017 Notes, the “Notes” and the holders of such Notes are referred to as the “Noteholders” or “Holders”), Puritan Partners, LLC, agent to the Noteholders (“Agent”), Oncolix, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Oncolix-Florida”) and Oncolix, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Oncolix-Delaware” and collectively with Oncolix-Florida, the “Company”).

 

WHEREAS, the August 2017 Notes are secured by a security agreement, IP security agreement and a guaranty from Oncolix-Delaware (the “August 2017 Security Documents”) and the May 2018 Notes are secured by a security agreement, IP security agreement and a guaranty from Oncolix-Delaware (the “May 2018 Security Documents” and collectively with the August 2017 Security Documents, the “Security Documents”) covering certain property owned by the Company (the property and all other collateral covered by the Security Documents shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Collateral”); and

 

WHEREAS, Noteholders, pursuant to the Security Documents, have each been granted equal and ratable first priority liens and security interests in the Collateral, and Noteholders each desire to enter into an agreement with respect to the administration of the Collateral and the sharing of proceeds from the Collateral.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Equal Liens . Noteholders hereby agree that the liens and security interests in the Collateral granted to them under the Security Agreements are of equal priority.

 

2. Joint Exercise of Remedies . Holders hereby agree that, notwithstanding any provision of the Notes or the Security Documents to the contrary, no Holder shall be entitled to exercise any remedy under the Security Documents with respect to the Collateral except upon the affirmative approval of Holders holding at least 51% of the aggregate principal balance of the Notes then outstanding so long as such Holders shall include Puritan Partners LLC, as lead investor in the offering (“Majority Holders”). Upon an event of default under any of the Notes or Security Documents, any Holder may request, by written notice to all other Holders, that the Holders consent to and approve the exercise of certain remedies under the Security Documents. Upon obtaining affirmative consent and approval of Majority Holders for the exercise of any remedy under the Security Documents, all Holders consent and agree to the exercise of that remedy on behalf of all Holders. Majority Holders shall cause such remedies to be exercised and shall use reasonable efforts to enforce the lien and security interest granted under the Security Documents and realize on the Collateral. If Majority Holders do not consent to the exercise of any remedy, then all Holders hereby agree to abide by that decision. Notwithstanding the above provision, each Holder shall have the full right to accelerate and attempt to collect amounts due under their respective Notes without exercising any remedy under the Security Documents with respect to the Collateral.

 
 
1
 
 

 

3. Sharing of Proceeds . The proceeds received through enforcement of the liens and security interests granted and provided for in the Security Documents shall be shared among the Holders as follows:

 

(a) First, to the payment of any outstanding costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by any of the Holders in enforcing such liens and security interests and in protecting and collecting the proceeds of the Collateral (“Foreclosure Costs”), to the extent such foreclosure costs have not theretofore been reimbursed; and

 

(b) Second, to the payment of the unpaid principal and interest balance of the Notes, pro rata in accordance with the then outstanding principal amounts of, and accrued interest on, the Notes then outstanding at the time of any such determination.

 

4. Removal of Agent . The Agent may be removed at any time by the holders of at least 51% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by filing with the Agent so removed and with the Company written evidence provided of such action in that regard taken by such percentage of the Noteholders; provided, that Puritan Partners may not be removed as Agent unless Puritan shall then hold less than $50,000 in principal amount of Notes; provided, further, that such removal may occur only if each of the other Noteholders shall then hold not less than an aggregate of $500,000 in principal amount of Notes.

 

5. Resignation of Agent; Appointment of Successor Agent . In case at any time the Agent (a) shall resign or shall be removed or (b) shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Agent or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Agent or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then a vacancy shall be deemed to exist in the office of the Agent and a successor Agent may be appointed by the holders of at least 51% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by the filing with the successor Agent, the Company and the retiring Agent of written evidence of the action in that regard taken by such percentage of the Noteholders; provided that unless a successor Agent shall have been appointed by the Noteholders as aforesaid, the Company by instrument executed by order of its Board of Directors may appoint a temporary successor Agent to fill such vacancy.

EXHIBIT A

 

Intercreditor Agreement

 

This INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is executed effective as of May [_], 2018, by and between the holders of $4,190,463 aggregate principal amount of notes originally issued on August 3, 2017, as amended as of the date hereof (“August 2017 Notes”), holders of up to $3.0 million principal amount of notes originally issued on May __, 2018 (“May 2018 Notes” and collectively with the August 2017 Notes, the “Notes” and the holders of such Notes are referred to as the “Noteholders” or “Holders”), Puritan Partners, LLC, agent to the Noteholders (“Agent”), Oncolix, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Oncolix-Florida”) and Oncolix, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Oncolix-Delaware” and collectively with Oncolix-Florida, the “Company”).

 

WHEREAS, the August 2017 Notes are secured by a security agreement, IP security agreement and a guaranty from Oncolix-Delaware (the “August 2017 Security Documents”) and the May 2018 Notes are secured by a security agreement, IP security agreement and a guaranty from Oncolix-Delaware (the “May 2018 Security Documents” and collectively with the August 2017 Security Documents, the “Security Documents”) covering certain property owned by the Company (the property and all other collateral covered by the Security Documents shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Collateral”); and

 

WHEREAS, Noteholders, pursuant to the Security Documents, have each been granted equal and ratable first priority liens and security interests in the Collateral, and Noteholders each desire to enter into an agreement with respect to the administration of the Collateral and the sharing of proceeds from the Collateral.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Equal Liens . Noteholders hereby agree that the liens and security interests in the Collateral granted to them under the Security Agreements are of equal priority.

 

2. Joint Exercise of Remedies . Holders hereby agree that, notwithstanding any provision of the Notes or the Security Documents to the contrary, no Holder shall be entitled to exercise any remedy under the Security Documents with respect to the Collateral except upon the affirmative approval of Holders holding at least 51% of the aggregate principal balance of the Notes then outstanding so long as such Holders shall include Puritan Partners LLC, as lead investor in the offering (“Majority Holders”). Upon an event of default under any of the Notes or Security Documents, any Holder may request, by written notice to all other Holders, that the Holders consent to and approve the exercise of certain remedies under the Security Documents. Upon obtaining affirmative consent and approval of Majority Holders for the exercise of any remedy under the Security Documents, all Holders consent and agree to the exercise of that remedy on behalf of all Holders. Majority Holders shall cause such remedies to be exercised and shall use reasonable efforts to enforce the lien and security interest granted under the Security Documents and realize on the Collateral. If Majority Holders do not consent to the exercise of any remedy, then all Holders hereby agree to abide by that decision. Notwithstanding the above provision, each Holder shall have the full right to accelerate and attempt to collect amounts due under their respective Notes without exercising any remedy under the Security Documents with respect to the Collateral.

 

3. Sharing of Proceeds . The proceeds received through enforcement of the liens and security interests granted and provided for in the Security Documents shall be shared among the Holders as follows:

 

 

(a) First, to the payment of any outstanding costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by any of the Holders in enforcing such liens and security interests and in protecting and collecting the proceeds of the Collateral (“Foreclosure Costs”), to the extent such foreclosure costs have not theretofore been reimbursed; and

 

 

 

 

(b) Second, to the payment of the unpaid principal and interest balance of the Notes, pro rata in accordance with the then outstanding principal amounts of, and accrued interest on, the Notes then outstanding at the time of any such determination.

 

4. Removal of Agent . The Agent may be removed at any time by the holders of at least 51% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by filing with the Agent so removed and with the Company written evidence provided of such action in that regard taken by such percentage of the Noteholders; provided, that Puritan Partners may not be removed as Agent unless Puritan shall then hold less than $50,000 in principal amount of Notes; provided, further, that such removal may occur only if each of the other Noteholders shall then hold not less than an aggregate of $500,000 in principal amount of Notes.

 

5. Resignation of Agent; Appointment of Successor Agent . In case at any time the Agent (a) shall resign or shall be removed or (b) shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Agent or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Agent or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then a vacancy shall be deemed to exist in the office of the Agent and a successor Agent may be appointed by the holders of at least 51% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by the filing with the successor Agent, the Company and the retiring Agent of written evidence of the action in that regard taken by such percentage of the Noteholders; provided that unless a successor Agent shall have been appointed by the Noteholders as aforesaid, the Company by instrument executed by order of its Board of Directors may appoint a temporary successor Agent to fill such vacancy.

 
 
14
 
 

 

If no successor Agent shall have been appointed pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5 or shall have accepted appointment within three months after a vacancy shall have occurred in the office of Agent, the holder of any Note then outstanding or the retiring Agent may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Agent. The court to which a Noteholder applies to have a successor Agent appointed, may appoint a successor Agent as it deems proper.

 

Any appointment of a successor Agent pursuant to this Section 5 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Agent. Any successor Agent appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to its predecessor Agent, and also to the Company, an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Agent shall become effective and such successor Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Agent herein; but the Agent ceasing to act shall nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or of the successor Agent, or of the holders of at least 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, execute, acknowledge and deliver such instruments and so such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in such successor Agent all such rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of the predecessor Agent, and the Agent ceasing to act shall also, upon like request, pay over, assign and deliver to the successor Agent any money or other property which may then be in its possession as Agent. Should any instrument from the Company be required by the new Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such new Agent such properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations, any and all such instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Company.

 

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Agent as provided in this Section 9, the Company shall mail notice by first class mail postage prepaid of the succession of such Agent hereunder to the holders of all Notes at their addresses as they shall appear on the registry books of the Company maintained pursuant to this Agreement. If the Company shall fail to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Agent, the successor Agent shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Company.

 

6. Consents, Approvals . Any consents, approvals, waivers or other decisions to be made by Holders under the Security Documents shall be granted or denied by Majority Holders.

 

7. Payment of Foreclosure Costs . Each Holder agrees to pay and reimburse the other Holders for any foreclosure costs incurred by such Holder, to the extent cash proceeds from the enforcement of the Security Documents are insufficient to pay such costs.

 

8. No Third Party Benefit . This Agreement has been entered into by Holders for their sole and exclusive benefit and neither Company nor any other person, firm or corporation (other than Holders) shall be entitled to rely on any of the agreements herein contained or assume that the Notes, the Security Documents and the Collateral shall be administered in accordance with the provisions hereof.

 
 
15
 
 

 

9. Governing Law . This Agreement shall be governed under and construed under the laws of the State of New York without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof.

 

10. Binding Effect . This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding on the parties hereto and their respective heirs, administrators, personal representatives, successors and assigns.

 

11. Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature were the original thereof.

 

12. Omnibus Signature Page . With respect to the holders of the August 2017 Notes, it is hereby agreed that the execution by the holders of the Amendment and Waiver, in the place set forth therein, shall constitute their agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions hereof and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, with the same effect as if each of such separate but related agreements were separately signed.

 

EXECUTED as of this __ day of May, 2018.
