Item 1.01 Entry into Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Private Placement Transaction

On July 31, 2017, the Company entered into a Common Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 (the “ Purchase Agreement ”), with certain accredited investors named therein (collectively, the “ Purchasers ”). Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell, and the Purchasers agreed to purchase from the Company, an aggregate of up to 1,750,000 shares (the “ Shares ”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “ Common Stock ”) and an aggregate of up to 1,750,000 warrants to purchase one share of common stock (the “ Warrants ” and together with the Shares, the “ Securities ”)(the “ Offering ”).

The exercise price of the Warrants is $2.10 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein, and the Warrants will be exercisable beginning on July 31, 2017 through July 30, 2022. The exercise price and number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants will be subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividends and splits, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, and will also be subject to weighted average anti-dilution adjustments in the event the Company issues or is deemed to have issued any securities below the then exercise price of the Warrants, subject to certain exceptions, during the 12 months following the closing date, each as described in greater detail in the Warrants. After the six month anniversary of the closing, if a registration statement covering the issuance or resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (the “ Warrant Shares ”) is not available for the issuance or resale, as applicable, the Purchasers may exercise the Warrants by means of a “ cashless exercise.

A condition to the Offering was that officers and directors of the Company and their affiliates had to have invested at least an aggregate of $500,000 into the Company on the same terms as the Purchasers. In connection therewith, William Kerby, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Company agreed to purchase $50,000 of the Securities (25,000 Shares and Warrants); Simon Orange, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company agreed to purchase $175,000 of the Securities (87,500 Shares and Warrants); Donald Monaco, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company agreed to purchase $175,000 of the Securities (87,500 Shares and Warrants); Pat LaVecchia, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company agreed to purchase $10,000 of the Securities (5,000 Shares and Warrants); and Robert J. Post, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company agreed to purchase $25,000 of the Securities (12,500 Shares and Warrants). Additionally, Stephen Romsdahl, a greater than 5% shareholder of the Company agreed to purchase $50,000 of the Securities (25,000 Shares and Warrants) and another non-related party, who is a key distributor of the Company, agreed to purchase $100,000 of the Securities (50,000 Shares and Warrants).

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement on Form S-1 (or Form S-3, if available) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ Registration Statement ”) within 45 days following the closing of the Offering to register the resale by the Purchasers of the Shares and Warrant Shares and to cause the Registration Statement to become effective within 120 days following the closing of the Offering, subject to penalties as described in the Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement also requires the Company to apply for listing of its Common Stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market (“ NASDAQ ”) within 60 days following the closing of the Offering and to cause the Shares to be listed on the NASDAQ no later than 120 days following closing of the Offering.

The combined purchase price for one Share and one Warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock in the Offering is $2.00. The Company expects the aggregate net proceeds from the Offering, after deducting the placement agents’ fees payable in cash (described below) and other estimated offering expenses, to be approximately $2.7 million. The Company intends to use the aggregate net proceeds to expand its technology division, increase its alternative lodging rental count, and general corporate purposes.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company and customary conditions to closing. The Company anticipates closing the Offering on or before Thursday, August 3, 2017.

  

 
 

 

Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents for a period of 90 days following the effective date of the Registration Statement.

The foregoing summaries of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Warrants do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full texts of the form of the form of Warrant, and Purchase Agreement that are filed herewith as Exhibits 4.1 and 10.1 , respectively.

The representations, warranties and covenants contained in Purchase Agreement and the Warrants were made only for purposes of such agreements and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement and the Warrants, respectively, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties. Accordingly, the Purchase Agreement and the Warrants are incorporated herein by reference only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Purchase Agreement and the Warrants, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding the Company or its business, and should be read in conjunction with the disclosures in the Company’s periodic reports and other filings with the Commission.

This report does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

Placement Agency Agreement

In connection with the Offering and on July 31, 2017, the Company entered into a Placement Agency Agreement (the “ Placement Agreement ”) with Northland Securities, Inc. (the “ Agent ”). Pursuant to the Placement Agreement, the Agent agreed to serve as our exclusive placement agent in connection with the Offering on a “ reasonable efforts ” basis. In consideration for the services provided by the Agent, the Company agreed to pay the Agent, 8% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Shares and Warrants in the Offering and, for the consideration of $50, to sell to the Agent, a warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock equal to 5% of the Shares sold in the Offering (the “ Agent Warrants ”). The Company also agreed to reimburse up to $150,000 of the expenses of the Agent in connection with the Offering. The Placement Agreement includes customary representations and warranties and includes indemnification rights of the Agent. The Agent is also entitled to the registration rights and liquidated damages associated therewith which the Purchasers have pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

The foregoing summaries of the Placement Agreement and the Agent Warrants do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full texts of the form of Agent Warrants, and Placement Agreement that are filed herewith as Exhibits 4.2 and 1.1 , respectively.

Conversion of Series A Preferred Stock

A condition to the closing of the Offering is that William Kerby, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman and Donald P. Monaco, our Director, provide the Company conversion notices, on behalf of themselves and the entities which they control, which are irrevocable prior to the closing of the Offering (but are revocable in the event the Offering does not close), agreeing to convert the Series A 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (“ Series A Preferred Stock ”) beneficially owned by them into Common Stock of the Company. Currently, Mr. Kerby and Mr. Monaco hold in aggregate 1,869,611 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, which each have the right to vote 100 voting shares, for an aggregate of 186,961,100 voting shares, representing approximately 92.5% of out total voting shares on any and all shareholder matters. The conversion notices, which have been delivered to the Company, provide for the conversion, immediately following the closing of the Offering, of the Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock of the Company on a 2-for-1 basis (as provided by the current terms of the Series A Preferred Stock). As such, immediately following the closing of the Offering, the Series A Preferred Stock will convert into 3,789,222 shares of Common Stock and Mr. Kerby and Mr. Monaco will no longer have voting control over the Company.

 
 

 

Board Representation Agreement

As additional consideration for Pacific Grove Capital LP (“ Pacific Grove ”), agreeing to participate in the Offering as a Purchaser, the Company entered into a Board Representation Agreement with Pacific Grove.

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

  5) The Amended Bylaws provide the Board of Directors the right, unless otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation or any applicable certificate of designation, to fill any vacancy on the Board, whether because of death, resignation, disqualification, an increase in the number of directors, or any other cause;
  6) The Amended Bylaws provided that any action required to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company or any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action that is the subject of the consent at a meeting in which each stockholder entitled to vote on the action is present and votes, and shall be delivered to the Company by delivery to its registered office, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Company having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded (previously the Bylaws provided that every stockholder would be required to sign a written consent in order for it be effective);
  7) The Amended Bylaws clarify that “[v]otes cast shall include votes cast against any proposal and shall exclude abstentions and broker non-votes, provided that votes cast against any proposal, abstentions and broker non-votes shall be counted in determining a quorum at any meeting.”
  8) The Amended Bylaws provide for the duties of the Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, Vice Presidents and certain other named senior officers which are absent from the prior Bylaws;
  9) The Amended Bylaws allow for the Company’s Transfer Agent to refuse transfer of shares whenever there is any reasonable doubt as to their rightful ownership;

  13) The Amended Bylaws provide that in the absence of a quorum at any meeting or any adjournment thereof, (A) the Board of Directors, without a vote of the stockholders, may (1) postpone, reschedule, or cancel any previously scheduled annual meeting of stockholders and (2) postpone, reschedule, or cancel any previously scheduled special meeting of the stockholders called by the Board of Directors or management (but not by the stockholders); or (B) the holders of a majority of the shares of stock entitled to vote who are present, in person or by proxy, or, in the absence therefrom of all the stockholders, any officer entitled to preside at, or to act as secretary of, such meeting may adjourn such meeting to another place, date or time; and
  14) The Amended Bylaws clarify consistent with Nevada law that any action taken by the stockholders shall be valid and binding upon the Company if the number of votes cast in favor of the action exceeds the number of votes cast in opposition to the action (the prior Bylaws provided that the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented at a meeting and entitled to vote thereat were necessary for the adoption of any proposal).

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

The Shares and Warrants were offered and will be sold to the Purchasers under the Purchase Agreement in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”), and state securities laws, in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D of the Securities Act and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. Each of the Purchasers represented that it is an accredited investor within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D, and is acquiring the Shares and Warrants for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof. The Shares and Warrants were offered without any general solicitation by the Company or its representatives. In the event the Warrants are sold pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement exercised in full an aggregate of 1,750,000 shares of Common Stock would be issuable to the Purchasers (without taking into account any cashless exercise rights).

The aggregate purchase price of the Shares is expected to be approximately $3.1 million.

The conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock (described above in Item 1.01, the description of which is incorporated by reference in this Item 3.02), and the issuance of the 3,739,222 shares of Common Stock upon conversion thereof will be exempt from registration pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, as the security will be exchanged by us with our existing security holders in a transaction where no commission or other remuneration was paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting such exchange.

Following the Offering and the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, there will be 16.7 million shares outstanding (not including any exercise of the Warrants). The Shares and Warrants subject to the Purchase Agreement represent 13.4% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the execution of the Purchase Agreement. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering to expand its technology division, increase its alternative lodging rental, and general corporate purposes.

The Agent Warrants were offered and will be sold to the Agent under the Agent Agreement in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act, or state securities laws, in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D of the Securities Act and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. In the event the Agent Warrants are exercised in full an aggregate of 1,532,500 shares of Common Stock would be issuable to the Agent.

The Shares, Warrants and Agent Warrants and shares of common stock issuable upon exercise thereof have not been registered under the Securities Act and such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws. Neither this Current Report on Form 8-K nor any exhibit attached hereto is an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy Shares, Warrants or other securities of the Company.

Additional information regarding the Shares, the Purchasers, the Agent Warrants and the Agent and the transaction is included under Item 1.01 of this report and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

  (b)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Warrant Shares that may be acquired by the Holder upon any exercise of this Warrant (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that, following such exercise (or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Holder and its affiliates (as defined under Rule 144, “ Affiliates ”) and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, does not exceed 4.999% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise).

This provision shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock which a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section 9 of this Warrant. This restriction may not be waived.

 

5.        Delivery of Warrant Shares.

 

     (a)           To effect exercises hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant unless the aggregate Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant are being exercised. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice (in the form attached hereto) to the Company (with the attached Warrant Shares Exercise Log) at its address for notice set forth herein and upon payment of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares that the Holder intends to purchase hereunder, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than three Trading Days after the Date of Exercise (as defined herein)) issue and deliver to the Holder, a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, which, unless otherwise required by the Placement Agency Agreement, shall be free of restrictive legends. The Company shall, upon request of the Holder and subsequent to the date on which a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, use its reasonable best efforts to deliver Warrant Shares hereunder electronically through the Depository Trust Corporation or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions, if available, provided, that, the Company may, but will not be required to change its transfer agent if its current transfer agent cannot deliver Warrant Shares electronically through the Depository Trust Corporation. A “ Date of Exercise ” means the date on which the Holder shall have delivered to the Company: (i) the Exercise Notice (with the Warrant Exercise Log attached to it), appropriately completed and duly signed and (ii) if such Holder is not utilizing the cashless exercise provisions set forth in this Warrant, payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares so indicated by the Holder to be purchased.

 

      (b)          If by the third Trading Day after a Date of Exercise the Company fails to deliver the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 5(a), then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

 

Placement Agency Agreement (PIPE)

 

 

 

 

     (c)          If by the third Trading Day after a Date of Exercise the Company fails to deliver the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 5(a), and if after such third Trading Day and prior to the receipt of such Warrant Shares, the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) 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 (1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount 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 (A) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue by (B) the closing bid price of the Common Stock at the time of the obligation giving rise to such purchase obligation and (2) 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 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. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In.

 

      (d)          The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares 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 Warrant Shares. 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 Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

6.          Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax, withholding tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or expense in respect of the issuance of such certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.

 

7.          Replacement of Warrant. If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity (which shall not include a surety bond), if requested. Applicants for a New Warrant under such circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable third-party costs as the Company may prescribe. If a New Warrant is requested as a result of a mutilation of this Warrant, then the Holder shall deliver such mutilated Warrant to the Company as a condition precedent to the Company’s obligation to issue the New Warrant.

 

8.          Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares which are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 9). The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and nonassessable.

 

Placement Agency Agreement (PIPE)

 

 

 

 

9.         Certain Adjustments. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 9.

 

      (a)          Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii) combines outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to equal the product obtained by multiplying the then-current Exercise Price by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination.

 

     (b)         Fundamental Transactions. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding there is a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the same amount and kind 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 the number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise in full of this Warrant (the “ Alternate Consideration ”). 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. At the Holder’s option and request, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall, either (1) issue to the Holder a new warrant substantially in the form of this Warrant and consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right to purchase the Alternate Consideration for the aggregate Exercise Price upon exercise thereof, or (2) purchase the Warrant from the Holder for a purchase price, payable in cash within five Trading Days after such request (or, if later, on the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction), equal to the Black Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of such request. 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 (b) and insuring that the Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.

 

Placement Agency Agreement (PIPE)

 

 

 

 

    (c)          Price Antidilution. If within twelve months from the Original Issue Date the Company shall issue any (i) Common Stock or (ii) any securities of the Company or the subsidiary that would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, rights, options, warrants or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Stock (“ Common Stock Equivalents ” and collectively “ Additional Shares ”), entitling any person or entity to acquire shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share less than the Exercise Price then in effect, except for the Exempt Issuances (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the Exercise Price shall be amended to equal the then current Exercise Price x (A + B) ¸ (A + C). For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply: (I) “A” means the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding and deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issue of Additional Shares (treating for this purpose as outstanding all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of options and convertible securities as outstanding immediately prior to such issue); (II) “B” means the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if such Additional Shares had been issued at a price per share equal to the then current Exercise Price (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Company in respect of such issue by the then current Exercise Price); and (III) “C” means the number of such Additional Shares issued in such transaction.

 

The sale of Common Stock Equivalents shall be deemed to have occurred at the time of the issuance of the Common Stock Equivalents and the purchase price covered thereby shall also include the actual exercise or conversion price thereof at the time of the issuance, without any further adjustments to the exercise price upon the conversion or exercise of any Common Stock Equivalents. If shares are issued for a consideration other than cash, the per share selling price shall be the fair value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this section shall not apply to an Exempt Issuance (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

 

In the event of any adjustment under this Section 9(c), the Company shall promptly amend the Registration Statement or file a new Registration Statement pursuant to the provisions of Section 6 of the Purchase Agreement to register the additional Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. In no event shall the number of Warrant Shares increase if such increase shall result in the Purchasers acquiring, or obtaining the right to acquire, in excess of 19.999% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or voting power of the Company on a post-transaction basis that assumes that the closing of the Additional Shares shall have occurred.

 

(d)        Number of Warrant Shares. Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 9, the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the adjusted number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.

 

(e)       Calculations. All calculations under this Section 9 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100 th of a share, as applicable. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.

 

(f)        Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 9, the Company at its expense will promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the Company’s Transfer Agent.

(b)       Cashless Exercise. If the Company does not have an effective Registration Statement covering the resale of the Registrable Securities within 180 days after Closing or anytime thereafter, then the Holder may notify the Company in an Exercise Notice of its election to utilize cashless exercise, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:

 

X = Y [(A-B)/A]

 

where:

 

X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.

 

Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised.

 

A = the average of the Closing Prices for the five Trading Days immediately prior to (but not including) the Exercise Date.

 

B = the Exercise Price.

 

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued.

 

11.         No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional shares which would, otherwise be issuable, the Company may (a) pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the Closing Price of one Warrant Share on the date of exercise; or (b) round up the amount of any fractional share to the next highest whole number of shares.

 

12.         Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including, without limitation, any Exercise Notice) shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective if provided pursuant to the Placement Agency Agreement. In case any time: (1) the Company shall declare any cash dividend on its capital stock; (2) the Company shall pay any dividend payable in stock upon its capital stock or make any distribution to the holders of its capital stock; (3) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of its capital stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; (4) there shall be any capital reorganization, or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or consolidation or merger of the Company with, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets to, another corporation; or (5) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall give prompt written notice to the Holder. Such notice shall also specify the date as of which the holders of capital stock of record shall participate in such dividend, distribution or subscription rights, or shall be entitled to exchange their capital stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, or conversion or redemption, as the case may be. Such written notice shall be given at least 20 days prior to the action in question and not less than 20 days prior to the record date or the date on which the Company’s transfer books are closed in respect thereto.

 

13.         Registration Rights. The Holder shall be entitled to the registration rights set forth in Section 6 of the Purchase Agreement. Furthermore, the Holder shall be entitled to its pro rata share of any Late Registration/Listing Warrants provided by the Company to the Purchasers under Section 6 of the Purchase Agreement.

3.       The Company 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 and in good standing would not result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

4.       The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Purchase Agreement and the Agency Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the issuance of the Securities, the Agent Warrants and the Agent Warrant Shares, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company.

 

5.       The Purchase Agreement and the Agency Agreement have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as rights to indemnity thereunder may be limited by federal or state securities laws and except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally, in effect from time to time and general equitable principles.

 

6.       Except for filings, authorizations or approvals contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and the Agency Agreement, no authorizations or approvals of, and no filings with, any governmental or administrative agency, regulatory authority, stock market or trading facility are necessary or required by the Company for the execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement or the Agency Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby.

 

7.       Neither the execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement or the Agency Agreement by the Company, nor the consummation or performance by the Company of any of the transactions contemplated thereby (including the issuance of the Securities, the Warrant Shares, the Agent Warrants and the Agent Warrant Shares) (i) contravene, conflict with or result in a violation of any provisions of the Company’s articles of incorporation or bylaws; (ii) constitute a violation of Covered Law relevant applicable to the Company; (iii) violate any judgment, decree, order or award of any court, governmental body or arbitrator specifically naming the Company which we have knowledge of ; or (iv) with or without notice and/or the passage of time, conflict with or result in the breach or termination of any term or provision of, or constitute a default under, or cause any acceleration under, or cause the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon the properties or assets of the Company or its subsidiaries pursuant to, any agreement to which has been filed by the Company as an exhibit to the Company SEC Documents.

As of the date hereof, without giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Agreement to occur at the Closing, there are issued and outstanding of record: 11,424,047 shares of Common Stock and 1,869,611 shares of preferred stock.

10.     The Securities, the Agent Warrants and the Agent Warrant Shares have been duly authorized or reserved for issuance by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company; and the Shares, when issued, sold and delivered against payment therefor in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement, and the Warrant Shares and Agent Warrants Shares, when issued upon exercise of the Warrants and the Agent Warrants in accordance with the terms thereof, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

11.     Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of each of the investors set forth in the Purchase Agreement and of the Company set forth in Section 3 of the Agency Agreement, the offer, issuance and sale of the Securities at the Closing pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and the issuance of the Agent Warrants pursuant to the Agency Agreement are, and the issuance of the Warrant Shares and the Agent Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and the Agent Warrants will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and the securities or “blue sky” laws of the applicable states in which the subscribers reside.

 

12.     Other than as disclosed in the Private Placement Documents and the Company SEC Documents, we have no knowledge of any actions, suits, arbitrations, claims, proceedings or investigations pending or threatened against the Company or its subsidiaries or any of their respective operations, businesses, properties or assets by or before any court, arbitrator or government or regulatory commission, board, body, authority or agency that challenges the validity of any actions taken or to be taken by the Company pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or the Agency Agreement or the transaction contemplated thereby.

 

13.     To our knowledge and except as set forth in the Private Placement Documents, no holders of the Company’s securities have rights to the registration of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company because of the Private Placement or the issuance of the Securities, Agent Warrants or the Agent Warrant Shares.

15.     Nothing has come to our attention that has caused us to be aware that any of the Private Placement Documents or Company SEC Documents contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. We do not express any belief as to the financial statements and related notes, financial statement schedules or financial or accounting data and information contained in or omitted from the Private Placement Documents or the Company SEC Documents.

Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made at any annual meeting of Stockholders, or at any special meeting of Stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors, (a) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors (or any duly authorized committee thereof) or (b) by any Stockholder of the Company (i) who is a Stockholder of record on the date of the giving of the notice provided for in this Section 3.5 and on the record date for the determination of Stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at such meeting and (ii) who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 3.5 .

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to include information with respect to a Stockholder proposal in the proxy statement and form of proxy for a stockholder’s meeting, Stockholders must provide notice as required by, and otherwise comply with the requirements of, the Exchange Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder. The Board of Directors reserves the right to refuse to submit any such proposal to Stockholders at an annual meeting if, in its judgment, the information provided in the notice is inaccurate or incomplete. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing Section 3.5 shall be the exclusive means for a Stockholder to make nominations or propose business (other than business included in the Corporation’s proxy materials pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, if the Company is subject to the Exchange Act) at an annual meeting of stockholders. For purposes of these Bylaws, “ public announcement ” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by a national service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or if the Company is privately held, a private announcement by the Company to its shareholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.5 , a stockholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and applicable state law with respect to matters set forth in this Section 3.5 , if the Company is subject to the Exchange Act. Nothing in this Section 3.5 shall be deemed to affect any rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act (if the Company is subject to the Exchange Act), or the Company’s or the Board of Director’s rights and obligations under the Exchange Act (if the Company is subject to the Exchange Act) and state law, as applicable.

3.6.           Waiver of Notice . Whenever these Bylaws require written notice, a written waiver thereof, signed by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall constitute the equivalent of notice. Attendance of a person at any meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends the meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. No written waiver of notice need specify either the business to be transacted at, or the purpose or purposes of any regular or special meeting of the Stockholders, directors or members of a committee of the Board.

 

3.7.           Adjournment of Meeting . When the Stockholders, the Board of Directors, or an officer (as provided in Section 3.8 below), adjourn a meeting to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the Stockholders may transact any business which they may have transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days or, if after the adjournment, the Board or a committee of the Board fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting, the Board or a committee of the Board shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each Stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

 

3.8.           Quorum . Except as otherwise required by law, the holders of 33 1/3% of all of the shares of the stock entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for all purposes at any meeting of the Stockholders except as otherwise provided by applicable law, by the Articles of Incorporation or by these Bylaws. In the absence of a quorum at any meeting or any adjournment thereof, (A) the Board of Directors, without a vote of the Stockholders, may (1) postpone, reschedule, or cancel any previously scheduled annual meeting of stockholders and (2) postpone, reschedule, or cancel any previously scheduled special meeting of the Stockholders called by the Board of Directors or management (but not by the Stockholders); or (B) the holders of a majority of the shares of stock entitled to vote who are present, in person or by proxy, or, in the absence therefrom of all the Stockholders, any officer entitled to preside at, or to act as secretary of, such meeting may adjourn such meeting to another place, date or time.

 

If the chairman of the meeting gives notice of any adjourned special meeting of Stockholders to all Stockholders entitled to vote thereat, stating that the minimum percentage of Stockholders for a quorum as provided by Nevada Law shall constitute a quorum, then, except as otherwise required by law, that percentage at such adjourned meeting shall constitute a quorum and a majority of the votes cast at such meeting shall determine all matters.

 

Votes cast shall include votes cast against any proposal and shall exclude abstentions and broker non-votes, provided that votes cast against any proposal, abstentions and broker non-votes shall be counted in determining a quorum at any meeting.

 

3.9.           Organization . Such person as the Board may have designated or, in the absence of such a person, the highest ranking officer of the Company who is present shall call to order any meeting of the Stockholders, determine the presence of a quorum, and act as chairman of the meeting. In the absence of the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company, the chairman shall appoint someone to act as the secretary of the meeting.

3.10.         Conduct of Business . The chairman of any meeting of Stockholders shall determine the order of business and the procedure at the meeting, including such regulations of the manner of voting and the conduct of discussion as he deems in order.

 

3.11.         List of Stockholders . At least 10 days before every meeting of Stockholders, the Secretary shall prepare a list of the Stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting or any adjournment thereof, arranged in alphabetical order, showing the address of each Stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each Stockholder. The Company shall make the list available for examination by any Stockholder for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting will take place or at the place designated in the notice of the meeting.

 

The Secretary shall produce and keep the list at the time and place of the meeting during the entire duration of the meeting, and any Stockholder who is present may inspect the list at the meeting. The list shall constitute presumptive proof of the identity of the Stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting and the number of shares each Stockholder holds.

 

A determination of Stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of Stockholders pursuant to this Section shall apply to any adjournment thereof.

 

3.12.         Fixing of Record Date . For the purpose of determining Stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of Stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or Stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend, or in order to make a determination of Stockholders for any other proper purpose, the Board or a committee of the Board may fix in advance a date as the record date for any such determination of Stockholders. However, the Board shall not fix such date, in any case, more than 60 days nor less than 10 days prior to the date of the particular action.

 

If the Board or a committee of the Board does not fix a record date for the determination of Stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of Stockholders, the record date shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given or if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held or the date on which the Board adopts the resolution declaring a dividend.

 

3.13.         Voting of Shares . Except as otherwise required by Nevada Law, the Articles, any certificate of designations, or the Bylaws, (i) at all meetings of Stockholders for the election of directors, a plurality of votes cast shall be sufficient to elect such directors; (ii) any other action taken by Stockholders shall be valid and binding upon the Company if the number of votes cast in favor of the action exceeds the number of votes cast in opposition to the action, at a meeting at which a quorum is present, except that adoption, amendment or repeal of the Bylaws by Stockholders will require the vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote; and (iii) broker non-votes and abstentions are considered for purposes of establishing a quorum but not considered as votes cast for or against a proposal or director nominee. Each Stockholder shall have one vote for every share of stock having voting rights registered in his name on the record date for the meeting, except as otherwise provided in any preferred stock designation setting forth the right of preferred stock shareholders. The Company shall not have the right to vote treasury stock of the Company, nor shall another corporation have the right to vote its stock of the Company if the Company holds, directly or indirectly, a majority of the shares entitled to vote in the election of directors of such other corporation. Persons holding stock of the Company in a fiduciary capacity shall have the right to vote such stock. Persons who have pledged their stock of the Company shall have the right to vote such stock unless in the transfer on the books of the Company the pledgor expressly empowered the pledgee to vote such stock. In that event, only the pledgee, or his proxy, may represent such stock and vote thereon.

Where a separate vote by a class or classes is required, a majority of the outstanding shares of such class or classes, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter and the affirmative vote of the majority of shares of such class or classes present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting shall be the act of such class.

 

3.14.         Inspectors . At any meeting in which the Stockholders vote by ballot, the chairman may appoint one or more inspectors. Each inspector shall take and sign an oath to execute the duties of inspector at such meeting faithfully, with strict impartiality, and according to the best of his ability. The inspectors shall ascertain the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each; determine the shares represented at a meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots; count all votes and ballots; determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors; and certify their determination of the number of shares represented at the meeting, and their count of all votes and ballots. The certification required herein shall take the form of a subscribed, written report prepared by the inspectors and delivered to the Secretary of the Company. An inspector need not be a Stockholder of the Company, and any officer of the Company may be an inspector on any question other than a vote for or against a proposal in which he has a material interest.

 

3.15.         Proxies . A Stockholder may exercise any voting rights in person or by his proxy appointed by an instrument in writing, which he or his authorized attorney-in-fact has subscribed and which the proxy has delivered to the Secretary of the meeting pursuant to the manner prescribed by law.

 

A proxy is not valid after the expiration of 6 months after the date of its execution, unless the person executing it specifies thereon the length of time for which it is to continue in force (which length may not exceed 7 years, unless coupled with an interest) or limits its use to a particular meeting. Each proxy is irrevocable if it expressly states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power.

 

The attendance at any meeting of a Stockholder who previously has given a proxy shall not have the effect of revoking the same unless he notifies the Secretary in writing prior to the voting of the proxy.

3.16.         Action by Consent . Any action required to be taken at any annual or special meeting of Stockholders of the Company or any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such Stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action that is the subject of the consent at a meeting in which each Stockholder entitled to vote on the action is present and votes, and shall be delivered to the Company by delivery to its registered office, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the Company having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded.

 

Every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each Stockholder who signs the consent, and no written consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within 60 days (or such other period as provided by applicable law) of the earliest dated consent delivered in the manner required by this Section to the Company, written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take action are delivered to the Company by delivery to its registered office, its principal place of business or an officer or agent of the Company having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Company’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.

 

Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those Stockholders who have not consented in writing, provided further that failure to provide such notice shall not effect the validity of such action.

 

In the event of the delivery to the Company of a consent or consents in writing (“ Consents ”), the secretary of the Company, or such other officer of the Company as the Board may designate, shall provide for the safe-keeping of such Consents and any related revocations and shall promptly conduct such ministerial review of the sufficiency of all Consents and any related revocations and of the validity of the action to be taken by Stockholder consent as the secretary of the Company, or such other officer of the Company as the Board may designate, as the case may be, deems necessary or appropriate, including, without limitation, whether the Stockholders of a number of shares having the requisite voting power to authorize or take the action specified in Consents have given consent; provided, however, that if the corporate action to which the Consents relate is the removal or replacement of one or more members of the Board, the secretary of the Company, or such other officer of the Company as the Board may designate, as the case may be, shall promptly designate two persons, who shall not be members of the Board, to serve as inspectors (“ Inspectors ”) with respect to such Consent and such Inspectors shall discharge the functions of the secretary of the Company, or such other officer of the Company as the Board may designate, as the case may be, under this section. If after such investigation the secretary of the Company, such other officer of the Company as the Board may designate or the Inspectors, as the case may be, shall determine that the action purported to have been taken is duly authorized by the Consents, that fact shall be certified on the records of the Company kept for the purpose of recording the proceedings of meetings of Stockholders and the Consents shall be filed in such records.

In conducting the investigation required by this section, the secretary of the Company, such other officer of the Company as the Board may designate or the Inspectors, as the case may be, may, at the expense of the Company, retain special legal counsel and any other necessary or appropriate professional advisors as such person or persons may deem necessary or appropriate and shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the opinion of such counsel or advisors.

 

No action by written consent without a meeting shall be effective until such date as the secretary of the Company, such other officer of the Company as the Board may designate, or the Inspectors, as applicable, certify to the Company that the Consents delivered to the Company in accordance with this section, represent at least the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to take the corporate action in accordance with Nevada law and the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company.

 

Nothing contained in this Section 3.16 shall in any way be construed to suggest or imply that the Board or any Stockholder shall not be entitled to contest the validity of any Consents or related revocations, whether before or after such certification by the secretary of the Company, such other officer of the Company as the Board may designate or the Inspectors, as the case may be, or to take any other action (including, without limitation, the commencement, prosecution, or defense of any litigation with respect thereto, and the seeking of injunctive relief in such litigation).

Unless otherwise restricted by the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, meetings of the Board or of any committee designated by the Board may be held through the use of a conference telephone or similar communications equipment such as email, instant messaging or similar communication so long as all members participating in such meeting can communicate with one another at the time of such meeting. Participation in such a meeting constitutes presence in person at such meeting. Each person participating in the meeting, or a duly appointed Secretary of the meeting, who attended such meeting, shall sign the minutes thereof, which may be in counterparts. Approval of said meeting may be accomplished via email or fax.

 

5.4.             Special Meetings .

The person or persons authorized to call special meetings of the Board may fix any place, either in or out of the State of Nevada as the place for the meeting.

 

5.5.             Notice of Special Meetings .

This Section shall apply only if the contract or transaction is just and reasonable to the Company at the time it is authorized and ratified, the interest of each director is known or disclosed to the Board of Directors, and the Board (or an authorized committee thereof) nevertheless authorizes or ratifies the contract or transaction by a majority of the disinterested directors present (or by authorized committee of the Board). Each interested director is to be counted in determining whether a quorum is present, but shall not vote and shall not be counted in calculating the majority necessary to carry the vote. This Section shall not be construed to invalidate contracts or transactions that would be valid in its absence.

 

ARTICLE VI.

Any committee, to the extent the Board provides, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board in the management of the business and affairs of the Company, and may authorize the affixation of the Company’s seal to all instruments which may require or permit it.

(a)         “ Indemnitee ” means (i) any present or former director, advisory director or officer of the Company, (ii) any person who while serving in any of the capacities referred to in clause (i) hereof served at the Company’s request as a director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, and (iii) any person nominated or designated by (or pursuant to authority granted by) the Board of Directors or any committee thereof to serve in any of the capacities referred to in clauses (i) or (ii) hereof.

 

(b)         “ Official Capacity ” means (i) when used with respect to a director, the office of director of the Company, and (ii) when used with respect to a person other than a director, the elective or appointive office of the Company held by such person or the employment or agency relationship undertaken by such person on behalf of the Company, but in each case does not include service for any other foreign or domestic corporation or any partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise.

 

(c)         “ Proceeding ” means any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative or investigative, any appeal in such an action, suit or proceeding, and any inquiry or investigation that could lead to such an action, suit or proceeding.

 

10.2.        Indemnification .  The Company shall indemnify every Indemnitee against all judgments, penalties (including excise and similar taxes), fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses actually incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding in which he was, is or is threatened to be named defendant or respondent, or in which he was or is a witness without being named a defendant or respondent, by reason, in whole or in part, of his serving or having served, or having been nominated or designated to serve, in any of the capacities referred to in Section 10.1 , if it is determined in accordance with Section 10.4 that the Indemnitee (a) conducted himself in good faith, (b) reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in his Official Capacity, that his conduct was in the Company’s best interests and, in all other cases, that his conduct was at least not opposed to the Company’s best interests, and (c) in the case of any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful; provided, however, that in the event that an Indemnitee is found liable to the Company or is found liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received by the Indemnitee the indemnification (i) is limited to reasonable expenses actually incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the Proceeding and (ii) shall not be made in respect of any Proceeding in which the Indemnitee shall have been found liable for willful or intentional misconduct in the performance of his duty to the Company. Except as provided in the immediately preceding proviso to the first sentence of this Section 10.2 , no indemnification shall be made under this Section 10.2 in respect of any Proceeding in which such Indemnitee shall have been (a) found liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received by him, whether or not the benefit resulted from an action taken in the Indemnitee’s Official Capacity, or (b) found liable to the Company. The termination of any Proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or on a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, is not of itself determinative that the Indemnitee did not meet the requirements set forth in clauses (a), (b) or (c) in the first sentence of this Section 10.2 . An Indemnitee shall be deemed to have been found liable in respect of any claim, issue or matter only after the Indemnitee shall have been so adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom. Reasonable expenses shall, include, without limitation, all court costs and all fees and disbursements of attorneys for the Indemnitee. The indemnification provided herein shall be applicable whether or not negligence or gross negligence of the Indemnitee is alleged or proven.

10.3.        Successful Defense .  Without limitation of Section 10.2 and in addition to the indemnification provided for in Section 10.2 , the Company shall indemnify every Indemnitee against reasonable expenses incurred by such person in connection with any Proceeding in which he is a witness or a named defendant or respondent because he served in any of the capacities referred to in Section 10.1 , if such person has been wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of the Proceeding.

 

10.4.        Determinations .  Any indemnification under Section 10.2 (unless ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction) shall be made by the Company only upon a determination that indemnification of the Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct. Such determination shall be made (a) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who, at the time of such vote, are not named defendants or respondents in the Proceeding; (b) if such a quorum cannot be obtained, then by a majority vote of a committee of the Board of Directors, duly designated to act in the matter by a majority vote of all directors (in which designated directors who are named defendants or respondents in the Proceeding may participate), such committee to consist solely of two (2) or more directors who, at the time of the committee vote, are not named defendants or respondents in the Proceeding; (c) by special legal counsel selected by the Board of Directors or a committee thereof by vote as set forth in clauses (a) or (b) of this Section 10.4 or, if the requisite quorum of all of the directors cannot be obtained therefor and such committee cannot be established, by a majority vote of all of the directors (in which directors who are named defendants or respondents in the Proceeding may participate); or (d) by the shareholders in a vote that excludes the shares held by directors that are named defendants or respondents in the Proceeding. Determination as to reasonableness of expenses shall be made in the same manner as the determination that indemnification is permissible, except that if the determination that indemnification is permissible is made by special legal counsel, determination as to reasonableness of expenses must be made in the manner specified in clause (c) of the preceding sentence for the selection of special legal counsel. In the event a determination is made under this Section 10.4 that the Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct as to some matters but not as to others, amounts to be indemnified may be reasonably prorated.

 

10.5.        Advancement of Expenses .  Reasonable expenses (including court costs and attorneys’ fees) incurred by an Indemnitee who was or is a witness or was, is or is threatened to be made a named defendant or respondent in a Proceeding shall be paid by the Company at reasonable intervals in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding, and without making any of the determinations specified in Section 10.4 , after receipt by the Company of (a) a written affirmation by such Indemnitee of his good faith belief that he has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the Company under this Article and (b) a written undertaking by or on behalf of such Indemnitee to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by the Company if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized in this Article. Such written undertaking shall be an unlimited obligation of the Indemnitee but need not be secured and it may be accepted without reference to financial ability to make repayment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, the Company may pay or reimburse expenses incurred by an Indemnitee in connection with his appearance as a witness or other participation in a Proceeding at a time when he is not named a defendant or respondent in the Proceeding.

ARTICLE XIII.
NOTICES

 

13.1.        General .  Whenever these Bylaws require notice to any Stockholder, director, officer or agent, such notice does not mean personal notice. A person may give effective notice under these Bylaws in every case by depositing a writing in a post office or letter box in a postpaid, sealed wrapper, or by dispatching a prepaid telegram addressed to such Stockholder, director, officer or agent at his address on the books of the Company. Unless these Bylaws expressly provide to the contrary, the time when the person sends notice shall constitute the time of the giving of notice.

 

13.2.        Waiver of Notice .  Whenever the law or these Bylaws require notice, the person entitled to said notice may waive such notice in writing, either before or after the time stated therein.

 

13.3.        Electronic Notice .  Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to Stockholders pursuant to Nevada Law, the Articles or these Bylaws, any notice to Stockholders given by the Company under any provision of Nevada Law, the Articles or these Bylaws shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the Stockholder to whom the notice is given. Any such consent shall be revocable by the Stockholder by written notice to the Company. Any such consent shall be deemed revoked if:

 

(i) the Company is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the Company in accordance with such consent; and

 

(ii) such inability becomes known to the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company or to the Transfer Agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice.

 

However, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.

 

Any notice given pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall be deemed given:

 

(i) if by facsimile telecommunication, when directed to a number at which the Stockholder has consented to receive notice;

 

(ii) if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the Stockholder has consented to receive notice;

 

(iii) if by a posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the Stockholder of such specific posting, upon the later of (A) such posting and (B) the giving of such separate notice; and

An affidavit of the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary or of the Transfer Agent or other agent of the Company that the notice has been given by a form of electronic transmission shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. An “ electronic transmission ” means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved, and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process.

 

Notwithstanding the above, no notice by a form of electronic transmission shall be effective if prohibited by Nevada Law, the Articles or these Bylaws.

 

13.4.        Undeliverable Notices .  Whenever notice is required to be given, under any provision of the Nevada Law, the Articles or these Bylaws, to any Stockholder to whom (a) notice of two (2) consecutive annual meetings, or (b) all, and at least two (2) payments (if sent by first-class mail) of dividends or interest on securities during a twelve (12) month period, have been mailed addressed to such person at such person’s address as shown on the records of the Company and have been returned undeliverable, the giving of such notice to such person shall not be required. Any action or meeting which shall be taken or held without notice to such person shall have the same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given. If any such person shall deliver to the Company a written notice setting forth such person’s then current address, the requirement that notice be given to such person shall be reinstated. In the event that the action taken by the Company is such as to require the filing of an amendment to the Articles with the Secretary of State of Nevada, the amendment need not state that notice was not given to persons to whom notice was not required to be given pursuant to Nevada Law.

 

ARTICLE XIV.

(b)        If by the third Trading Day after a Date of Exercise the Company fails to deliver the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 5(a), then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

 

(c)        If by the third Trading Day after a Date of Exercise the Company fails to deliver the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 5(a), and if after such third Trading Day and prior to the receipt of such Warrant Shares, the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) 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 (1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount 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 (A) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue by (B) the closing bid price of the Common Stock at the time of the obligation giving rise to such purchase obligation and (2) 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 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. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In.

 

(d)        The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares 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 Warrant Shares. 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 Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

 

 

 

6.       Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax, withholding tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or expense in respect of the issuance of such certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.

 

7.       Replacement of Warrant. If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity (which shall not include a surety bond), if requested. Applicants for a New Warrant under such circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable third-party costs as the Company may prescribe. If a New Warrant is requested as a result of a mutilation of this Warrant, then the Holder shall deliver such mutilated Warrant to the Company as a condition precedent to the Company’s obligation to issue the New Warrant.

 

8.       Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares which are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 9). The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and nonassessable.

 

9.       Certain Adjustments. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 9.

 

(a)       Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii) combines outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to equal the product obtained by multiplying the then-current Exercise Price by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination.

 

 

 

 

(b)       Fundamental Transactions. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding there is a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the same amount and kind 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 the number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise in full of this Warrant (the “ Alternate Consideration ”). 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. At the Holder’s option and request, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall, either (1) issue to the Holder a new warrant substantially in the form of this Warrant and consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right to purchase the Alternate Consideration for the aggregate Exercise Price upon exercise thereof, or (2) purchase the Warrant from the Holder for a purchase price, payable in cash within five Trading Days after such request (or, if later, on the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction), equal to the Black Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of such request. 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 (b) and insuring that the Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.

 

(c)       Price Antidilution. If within twelve months from the Original Issue Date the Company shall issue any (i) Common Stock or (ii) any securities of the Company or the subsidiary that would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, rights, options, warrants or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Stock (“ Common Stock Equivalents ” and collectively “ Additional Shares ”), entitling any person or entity to acquire shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share less than the Exercise Price then in effect, except for the Exempt Issuances (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the Exercise Price shall be amended to equal the then current Exercise Price x (A + B) ¸ (A + C). For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply: (I) “A” means the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding and deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issue of Additional Shares (treating for this purpose as outstanding all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of options and convertible securities as outstanding immediately prior to such issue); (II) “B” means the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if such Additional Shares had been issued at a price per share equal to the then current Exercise Price (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Company in respect of such issue by the then current Exercise Price); and (III) “C” means the number of such Additional Shares issued in such transaction.

 

The sale of Common Stock Equivalents shall be deemed to have occurred at the time of the issuance of the Common Stock Equivalents and the purchase price covered thereby shall also include the actual exercise or conversion price thereof at the time of the issuance, without any further adjustments to the exercise price upon the conversion or exercise of any Common Stock Equivalents.  If shares are issued for a consideration other than cash, the per share selling price shall be the fair value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this section shall not apply to an Exempt Issuance (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

 

In the event of any adjustment under this Section 9(c), the Company shall promptly amend the Registration Statement or file a new Registration Statement pursuant to the provisions of Section 6 of the Purchase Agreement to register the additional Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. In no event shall the number of Warrant Shares increase if such increase shall result in the Purchasers acquiring, or obtaining the right to acquire, in excess of 19.999% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or voting power of the Company on a post-transaction basis that assumes that the closing of the Additional Shares shall have occurred.

 

 

 

 

(d)       [Reserved]

 

(e)       Calculations. All calculations under this Section 9 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100 th of a share, as applicable. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.

 

(f)       Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 9, the Company at its expense will promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the Company’s Transfer Agent.

 

10.    Payment of Exercise Price. The Holder may pay the Exercise Price in one of the following manners:

 

(a)       Cash Exercise. The Holder may deliver immediately available funds; or

 

(b)       Cashless Exercise. If at any time after the six-month anniversary of the issue date, there is no effective registration statement registering, or no current prospectus available for the resale of the Warrant shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant shares equal:

 

X = Y [(A-B)/A]  

 

where:  

 

X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.  

 

Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised.  

 

A = the average of the Closing Prices for the five Trading Days immediately prior to (but not including) the Exercise Date.  

 

B = the Exercise Price.  

 

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued.

 

11.     No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional shares which would, otherwise be issuable, the Company may (a) pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the Closing Price of one Warrant Share on the date of exercise; or (b) round up the amount of any fractional share to the next highest whole number of shares.

 

 

 

 

12.     Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including, without limitation, any Exercise Notice) shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective if provided pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. In case any time: (1) the Company shall declare any cash dividend on its common stock; (2) the Company shall pay any dividend payable in stock upon its common stock or make any distribution to the holders of its common stock; (3) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of its common stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; (4) there shall be any capital reorganization, or reclassification of the common stock of the Company, or consolidation or merger of the Company with, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets to, another corporation; or (5) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall give prompt written notice to the Holder. Such notice shall also specify the date as of which the holders of capital stock of record shall participate in such dividend, distribution or subscription rights, or shall be entitled to exchange their capital stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, or conversion or redemption, as the case may be. Such written notice shall be given at least 20 days prior to the action in question and not less than 20 days prior to the record date or the date on which the Company’s transfer books are closed in respect thereto.

 

13.     Registration Rights. The Holder shall be entitled to the registration rights set forth in Section 6 of the Purchase Agreement.

 

14.     Miscellaneous.

 

(a)        This Warrant shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Subject to the preceding sentence, nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give to any Person other than the Company and the Holder any legal or equitable right, remedy or cause of action under this Warrant. This Warrant may be amended only in writing signed by the Company and the Holder and their successors and assigns.

 

(b)        All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

 

(c)        The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Warrant and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

 

(d)        In case any one or more of the provisions of this Warrant shall be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Warrant shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt in good faith to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a commercially reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Warrant.

 

(e)        Prior to exercise of this Warrant, the Holder hereof shall not, by reason of by being a Holder, be entitled to any rights of a stockholder with respect to the Warrant Shares

This Warrant also contains the following provision as Section 4(b) (Holder to check the applicable box):

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Warrant Shares that may be acquired by the Holder upon any exercise of this Warrant (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that, following such exercise (or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Holder and its affiliates (as defined under Rule 144, “ Affiliates ”) and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, does not exceed 4.999% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise). For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. This provision shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock which a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section 9 of this Warrant. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may waive the provisions of this Section 4(b), but any such waiver will not be effective until the 61st day after delivery of such notice, nor will any such waiver effect any other Holder.

For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. This provision shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock which a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section 9 of this Warrant.

Upon any such registration or transfer, a new Warrant to purchase Common Stock, in substantially the form of this Warrant (any such new Warrant, a “ New Warrant ”), evidencing the portion of this Warrant so transferred shall be issued to the transferee and a New Warrant evidencing the remaining portion of this Warrant not so transferred, if any, shall be issued to the transferring Holder. The acceptance of the New Warrant by the transferee thereof shall be deemed the acceptance by such transferee of all of the rights and obligations of a holder of a Warrant.

 

4.            Exercise and Duration of Warrants.

 

(a)            This Warrant shall be exercisable by the registered Holder in whole at any time and in part from time to time from the Original Issue Date through and including the Expiration Date.

The Company may not call or redeem any portion of this Warrant without the prior written consent of the affected Holder.

(b)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Warrant Shares that may be acquired by the Holder upon any exercise of this Warrant (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that, following such exercise (or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Holder and its affiliates (as defined under Rule 144, “ Affiliates ”) and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, does not exceed 4.999% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise). For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. This provision shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock which a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section 9 of this Warrant. By written notice to the Company, the Holder may waive the provisions of this Section 4(b) but any such waiver will not be effective until the 61st day after delivery of such notice, nor will any such waiver effect any other Holder.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Warrant Shares that may be acquired by the Holder upon any exercise of this Warrant (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that, following such exercise (or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Holder and its Affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, does not exceed 9.999% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise). For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. This provision shall not restrict the number of shares of Common Stock which a Holder may receive or beneficially own in order to determine the amount of securities or other consideration that such Holder may receive in the event of a Fundamental Transaction as contemplated in Section 9 of this Warrant. This restriction may not be waived.

 

5.            Delivery of Warrant Shares.

 

(a)            To effect exercises hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant unless the aggregate Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant are being exercised. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice (in the form attached hereto) to the Company (with the attached Warrant Shares Exercise Log) at its address for notice set forth herein and upon payment of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares that the Holder intends to purchase hereunder, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than three Trading Days after the Date of Exercise (as defined herein)) issue and deliver to the Holder, a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, which, unless otherwise required by the Placement Agency Agreement, shall be free of restrictive legends. The Company shall, upon request of the Holder and subsequent to the date on which a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, use its reasonable best efforts to deliver Warrant Shares hereunder electronically through the Depository Trust Corporation or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions, if available, provided, that, the Company may, but will not be required to change its transfer agent if its current transfer agent cannot deliver Warrant Shares electronically through the Depository Trust Corporation. A “ Date of Exercise ” means the date on which the Holder shall have delivered to the Company: (i) the Exercise Notice (with the Warrant Exercise Log attached to it), appropriately completed and duly signed and (ii) if such Holder is not utilizing the cashless exercise provisions set forth in this Warrant, payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares so indicated by the Holder to be purchased.

 

3  

 

 

(b)            If by the third Trading Day after a Date of Exercise the Company fails to deliver the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 5(a), then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

 

(c)            If by the third Trading Day after a Date of Exercise the Company fails to deliver the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 5(a), and if after such third Trading Day and prior to the receipt of such Warrant Shares, the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) 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 (1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount 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 (A) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue by (B) the closing bid price of the Common Stock at the time of the obligation giving rise to such purchase obligation and (2) 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 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. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In.

 

(d)            The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares 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 Warrant Shares. 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 Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

6.            Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax, withholding tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or expense in respect of the issuance of such certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.

 

7.            Replacement of Warrant. If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity (which shall not include a surety bond), if requested. Applicants for a New Warrant under such circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable third-party costs as the Company may prescribe. If a New Warrant is requested as a result of a mutilation of this Warrant, then the Holder shall deliver such mutilated Warrant to the Company as a condition precedent to the Company’s obligation to issue the New Warrant.

 

4  

 

 

8.            Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares which are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 9). The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and nonassessable.

 

9.            Certain Adjustments. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 9.

 

(a)            Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii) combines outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to equal the product obtained by multiplying the then-current Exercise Price by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination.

 

(b)            Fundamental Transactions. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding there is a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the same amount and kind 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 the number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise in full of this Warrant (the “ Alternate Consideration ”). 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. At the Holder’s option and request, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall, either (1) issue to the Holder a new warrant substantially in the form of this Warrant and consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right to purchase the Alternate Consideration for the aggregate Exercise Price upon exercise thereof, or (2) purchase the Warrant from the Holder for a purchase price, payable in cash within five Trading Days after such request (or, if later, on the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction), equal to the Black Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of such request. 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 (b) and insuring that the Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.

 

5  

 

 

(c)            Price Antidilution. If within twelve months from the Original Issue Date the Company shall issue any (i) Common Stock or (ii) any securities of the Company or the subsidiary that would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, rights, options, warrants or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Stock (“ Common Stock Equivalents ” and collectively “ Additional Shares ”), entitling any person or entity to acquire shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share less than the Exercise Price then in effect, except for the Exempt Issuances (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the Exercise Price shall be amended to equal the then current Exercise Price x (A + B) ¸ (A + C). For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply: (I) “A” means the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding and deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issue of Additional Shares (treating for this purpose as outstanding all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of options and convertible securities as outstanding immediately prior to such issue); (II) “B” means the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if such Additional Shares had been issued at a price per share equal to the then current Exercise Price (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Company in respect of such issue by the then current Exercise Price); and (III) “C” means the number of such Additional Shares issued in such transaction.

 

The sale of Common Stock Equivalents shall be deemed to have occurred at the time of the issuance of the Common Stock Equivalents and the purchase price covered thereby shall also include the actual exercise or conversion price thereof at the time of the issuance, without any further adjustments to the exercise price upon the conversion or exercise of any Common Stock Equivalents.  If shares are issued for a consideration other than cash, the per share selling price shall be the fair value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this section shall not apply to an Exempt Issuance (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

 

In the event of any adjustment under this Section 9(c), the Company shall promptly amend the Registration Statement or file a new Registration Statement pursuant to the provisions of Section 6 of the Purchase Agreement to register the additional Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. In no event shall the number of Warrant Shares increase if such increase shall result in the Purchasers acquiring, or obtaining the right to acquire, in excess of 19.999% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or voting power of the Company on a post-transaction basis that assumes that the closing of the Additional Shares shall have occurred.

 

(d)            Number of Warrant Shares. Simultaneously with any adjustment to the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 9, the number of Warrant Shares that may be purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased or decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder for the adjusted number of Warrant Shares shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.

 

(e)            Calculations. All calculations under this Section 9 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100 th of a share, as applicable. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.

 

(f)            Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 9, the Company at its expense will promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the Company’s Transfer Agent.

10.         Payment of Exercise Price. The Holder may pay the Exercise Price in one of the following manners:

 

(a)            Cash Exercise. The Holder may deliver immediately available funds; or

 

(b)            Cashless Exercise. If the Company does not have an effective Registration Statement covering the resale of the Registrable Securities within 180 days after Closing or anytime thereafter, then the Holder may notify the Company in an Exercise Notice of its election to utilize cashless exercise, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:

 

X = Y [(A-B)/A]  

 

where:  

 

X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.  

 

Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised.  

 

A = the average of the Closing Prices for the five Trading Days immediately prior to (but not including) the Exercise Date.  

 

B = the Exercise Price.  

 

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued.

 

11.          No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional shares which would, otherwise be issuable, the Company may (a) pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the Closing Price of one Warrant Share on the date of exercise; or (b) round up the amount of any fractional share to the next highest whole number of shares.

 

12.          Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including, without limitation, any Exercise Notice) shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective if provided pursuant to the Placement Agency Agreement. In case any time: (1) the Company shall declare any cash dividend on its capital stock; (2) the Company shall pay any dividend payable in stock upon its capital stock or make any distribution to the holders of its capital stock; (3) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of its capital stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; (4) there shall be any capital reorganization, or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or consolidation or merger of the Company with, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets to, another corporation; or (5) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall give prompt written notice to the Holder. Such notice shall also specify the date as of which the holders of capital stock of record shall participate in such dividend, distribution or subscription rights, or shall be entitled to exchange their capital stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, or conversion or redemption, as the case may be. Such written notice shall be given at least 20 days prior to the action in question and not less than 20 days prior to the record date or the date on which the Company’s transfer books are closed in respect thereto.

 

13.          Registration Rights. The Holder shall be entitled to the registration rights set forth in Section 6 of the Purchase Agreement. Furthermore, the Holder shall be entitled to its pro rata share of any Late Registration/Listing Warrants provided by the Company to the Purchasers under Section 6 of the Purchase Agreement.

 

7  

 

 

14.          Lock Up. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g), this Warrant shall not be sold during the Offering, or sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated, or be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put, or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of this Warrant or the Warrant Shares, by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of effectiveness or commencement of sales of the Offering, except as provided in paragraph (g)(2) of FINRA Rule 5110.

 

15.          Miscellaneous.

 

(a)             This Warrant shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Subject to the preceding sentence, nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give to any Person other than the Company and the Holder any legal or equitable right, remedy or cause of action under this Warrant. This Warrant may be amended only in writing signed by the Company and the Holder and their successors and assigns.

 

(b)             All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

 

(c)             The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this Warrant and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

 

(d)             In case any one or more of the provisions of this Warrant shall be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Warrant shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt in good faith to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision which shall be a commercially reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Warrant.

 

(e)             Prior to exercise of this Warrant, the Holder hereof shall not, by reason of by being a Holder, be entitled to any rights of a shareholder with respect to the Warrant Shares.

Such a pledge or transfer shall not be subject to approval or consent of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel to the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection with the pledge, but such legal opinion may be required in connection with a subsequent transfer following default by the Purchaser transferee of the pledge. No notice shall be required of such pledge. At the appropriate Purchaser’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Securities including the preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) of the Securities Act or other applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of Selling Stockholders thereunder.

Certificates evidencing the Shares and Warrant Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in this Section): (i) following a sale of such Securities pursuant to an effective registration statement (including the Registration Statement) and pursuant to the prospectus delivery requirements associated therewith, or (ii) following a sale of such Shares or Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) while such Shares or Warrant Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144 and, with respect to any Purchaser’s Shares, such Purchaser is not and has not been for three months an affiliate of the Company (as such term is defined in Rule 144(a)(1)) and such Shares have been held for one year or more pursuant to the requirements of Rule 144 and any other requirements under Rule 144 have been satisfied at such time, or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the Staff of the SEC). Following such time as restrictive legends are not required to be placed on certificates representing Shares or Warrant Shares, the Company will, no later than three Trading Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent of a certificate representing Shares or Warrant Shares containing a restrictive legend and such other documentation and representations as the Company, its legal counsel or Transfer Agent may reasonably request to confirm compliance with the preceding sentence as applicable, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such Shares or Warrant Shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends. The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Company’s transfer agent promptly after the effective date of a registration statement covering the Shares and Warrant Shares if required by the Company’s transfer agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section.

Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates representing Securities as set forth in this Section 3.2(b) is predicated upon the Company’s reliance that the 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, and will not sell any securities under the Registration Statement if the Company has made such Purchaser aware that the registration statement, or the information therein, can no longer be relied upon or used, notified the Purchaser of any Stop Order or provided a Suspension Notice.

5.            Additional Covenants.

 

5.1          Reporting Status. With a view to making available to the Purchasers the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Shares and Warrant Shares to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its reasonable efforts to file with the SEC, in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act. The Company will otherwise take such further action as a Purchaser may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Purchaser to sell the Shares and Warrant Shares without registration under the Securities Act or any successor rule or regulation adopted by the SEC.

 

5.2          Listing. So long as a Purchaser owns any of the Securities or Warrant Shares, the Company will use its reasonable efforts to maintain the automated quotation of its Common Stock, including the Shares and Warrant Shares, on the Principal Market or an alternative listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market, NYSE MKT or the New York Stock Exchange and will comply in all material respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. and such exchanges, if applicable.

Page 15  

 

 

5.3            Adjustments in Share Numbers and Prices.

 

(a)        In the event of any stock split, subdivision, dividend or distribution payable in shares of Common Stock (or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly shares of Common Stock), combination or other similar recapitalization or event occurring after the date hereof, each reference in this Agreement or the Warrants to a number of shares or price per share shall be amended appropriately to account for such event.

 

(b)        As to each Purchaser, from the Closing Date until the 12 month anniversary of the Closing Date, if the Company or any subsidiary thereof shall issue or agree to issue any (i) Common Stock or (ii) any securities of the Company or the subsidiary that would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, except in connection with the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, but including without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, rights, options, warrants or other instrument that is at any time directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Stock (“ Common Stock Equivalents ” and collectively “ Additional Shares ”), except for the Exempt Issuances, entitling any person or entity to acquire shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share less than $2.00, within three Trading Days of the date thereof the Company shall issue to such Purchaser that number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “ Anti-Dilution Shares ”) equal to (a) the aggregate Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser at the Closing divided by the New Adjusted Purchase Price, less (b) the Shares previously issued to such Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, New Adjusted Purchase Price = Adjusted Purchase Price x (A + B) ¸ (A + C). For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply: (I) Adjusted Purchase Price shall initially mean $2.00, subject to adjustment as provided herein; (II) New Adjusted Purchase Price means the Adjusted Purchase Price in effect immediately after such issue of Additional Shares; (III) “A” means the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding and deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issue of Additional Shares (treating for this purpose as outstanding all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of options and convertible securities as outstanding immediately prior to such issue); (IV) “B” means the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if such Additional Shares had been issued at a price per share equal to the Adjusted Purchase Price (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Company in respect of such issue by the Adjusted Purchase Price); and (V) “C” means the number of such Additional Shares issued in such transaction.

 

Page 16  

 

 

The sale of Common Stock Equivalents shall be deemed to have occurred at the time of the issuance of the Common Stock Equivalents and the purchase price covered thereby shall also include the actual exercise or conversion price thereof at the time of the issuance, without any further adjustments to the exercise price upon the conversion or exercise of any Common Stock Equivalents. If shares are issued for a consideration other than cash, the per share selling price shall be the fair value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company. The Company may not refuse to issue a Purchaser additional shares of Common Stock hereunder based on any claim that such Purchaser or any one associated or affiliated with such Purchaser 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 an issuance hereunder shall have been sought and obtained and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of such Purchaser in the amount of 150% of the market value of such Shares (based on the closing price of the Common Stock on the exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is listed or traded on the date of the event giving rise to the Company’s obligation hereunder), which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to the Purchaser to the extent it obtains judgment. Nothing herein shall limit a Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Company’s failure to deliver shares hereunder and such 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. On the date of closing of any transaction pursuant to which securities are issued for a purchase price less than the Adjusted Purchase Price then in effect, the Company shall give the Purchasers written notice thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this section shall not apply to an Exempt Issuance. “ Exempt Issuance ” means the issuance of (a) shares of Common Stock or options to employees, consultants, officers or directors of the Company pursuant to any stock or option plan duly adopted by a majority of the non-employee members of the board of directors of the Company or a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such purpose, (b) securities upon the exercise of or conversion of any convertible securities, options or warrants issued and outstanding on the date of this Agreement, provided that such securities have not been amended since the date of this Agreement to increase the number of such securities or to decrease the exercise or conversion price of any such securities, and (c) securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions, provided any such issuance shall only be to a person which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company in which the Company receives benefits in addition to the investment of funds, but shall not include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or to an entity whose primary business is investing in securities. “ Trading Day ” means a day on which the Common Stock is traded on a securities market, automated quotation system or stock exchange (including the over-the-counter bulletin board market).

 

In the event of any adjustment under this Section 5.3, the Company shall promptly amend the Registration Statement or file a new Registration Statement pursuant to the provisions of Section 6 to register the Anti-Dilution Shares. In no event shall the Company issue Anti-Dilution Shares to a Purchaser under Section 5.3 if such issuance shall result in the Purchasers acquiring, or obtaining the right to acquire, in excess of 19.999% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or voting power of the Company on a post-transaction basis that assumes that the closing of the Additional Shares shall have occurred.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of additional shares of Common Stock that may be issued to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 5.3 shall not at any one time exceed a number that, when added to the total number of shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned by the Purchaser (other than by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities (including the Warrants) that have limitations on such Purchaser’s right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein (the “ Excluded Shares ”)), together with all shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned at such time (other than by virtue of ownership of Excluded Shares) by persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the beneficial ownership of the Purchaser for purposes of determining whether a group exists or for purposes of determining the Purchaser’s beneficial ownership, in either such case for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Regulation 13D-G thereunder, would result in beneficial ownership by such Purchaser or such group of more than 9.9% of the shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “ Restricted Ownership Percentage ”), computed in accordance with Regulation 13D-G. The Purchaser shall have the right at any time and from time to time to reduce its Restricted Ownership Percentage immediately upon notice to the Company in the event and only to the extent that Section 16 of the Exchange Act or the rules promulgated thereunder (or any successor statute or rules) is changed to reduce the beneficial ownership percentage threshold thereunder from 10%. If the Purchaser would otherwise be unable by reason of the Restricted Ownership Percentage to acquire the full amount of securities which the Purchaser would otherwise be entitled to acquire in a particular transaction pursuant to this Section 5.3 then the Purchaser’s right to acquire such securities shall be deferred and if thereafter, at any time or from time to time the Purchaser could acquire all or any part of such securities without exceeding its Restricted Ownership Percentage, then the Purchaser shall be entitled to acquire such securities at such time or from time to time. The Purchaser will provide notice to the Company when it becomes able to acquire all or any part of such securities and the Company shall issue the Purchaser such securities on the date that is three business days after the Purchaser gives such notice.

5.4          Confidential Information. Each Purchaser covenants that it will maintain in confidence the receipt and content of any Suspension Notice (as defined herein) under Section 6.2 until such information (a) becomes generally publicly available other than through a violation of this provision by the Purchaser or its agents or (b) is required to be disclosed in legal proceedings (such as by deposition, interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigation demand, filing with any governmental authority or similar process); provided, however, that before making any disclosure in reliance on this Section 5.4(b), the Purchaser will give the Company at least 15 days prior written notice (or such shorter period as required by law) specifying the circumstances giving rise thereto and the Purchaser will furnish only that portion of the non-public information which is legally required and will exercise its best efforts to ensure that confidential treatment will be accorded any non-public information so furnished; provided, further, that notwithstanding each Purchaser’s agreement to keep such information confidential, each Purchaser makes no such acknowledgement that any such information is material, non-public information.

 

5.5          Non-Public Information. The Company covenants and agrees that neither it nor any other person acting on its behalf will provide any Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Purchaser shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information. The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

 

6.             Registration Rights.

 

6.1          Registration Procedures and Expenses.

 

(a)        The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC, as promptly as reasonably practicable following Closing, but in no event later than 45 days following Closing, a registration statement on Form S-1 (or Form S-3, if available)(or any successor to Form S-1/S-3), covering the resale of the Registrable Securities (as defined below) (the “ Registration Statement ”) and as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter but in no event later than 120 days following Closing, to effect such registration and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all Registrable Securities held by the Purchasers. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “ Registrable Securities ” shall mean (i) the Shares and Warrant Shares; and (ii) any Common Stock of the Company issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of, any Shares or Warrant Shares. If the Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the SEC on or before the date that is 120 days after Closing (the “ Required Effective Date ”), the Company shall, on the business day immediately following the Required Effective Date and for each day thereafter, provide each Purchaser, as partial liquidated damages for such delay (together, the “ Late Registration/Listing Warrants ”), with additional Warrants equal to each Purchaser’s pro rata share of 1% of the Warrants in the Offering. In addition, the Company shall, on the business day immediately following the required day for listing of the shares on the NASDAQ Capital Market under Section 5.2 and for each day thereafter, in the event such required listing has not occurred, provide each Purchaser, as partial liquidated damages for such delay Late Registration/Listing Warrants equal to each Purchaser’s pro rata share of 1% of the Warrants in the Offering. Late Registration/Listing Warrants will be provided to each Purchaser by the Company within five business days after the earlier of (i) when the Late Registration Warrant accrued or (ii) the effective date of the Registration Statement or the listing of the shares on the NASDAQ Capital Market, as applicable. The Company will provide all Late Registration/Listing Warrants in the form set forth hereto as Exhibit B . The Late Registration/Listing Warrants cease accruing at the earlier of (a) the Registration Statement being declared effective and the listing of the shares on the NASDAQ Capital Market and (b) 100 days. Therefore, in no case is the Company required to issue Late Registration/Listing Warrants in excess of 200% of the Warrants issued in the Offering. “ Business day ” means any day except Saturday, Sunday and any day that is a federal legal holiday in the United States.

(b)        The Company shall use its best efforts to:

 

(i)          prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary or advisable to keep the Registration Statement current and effective for the Shares and Warrant Shares (collectively, “ Common Shares ”) held by a Purchaser for a period ending on the earlier of (i) the second anniversary of the Closing Date, (ii) the date on which all Common Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any successor rule (“ Rule 144 ”) or (iii) such time as all Common Shares have been sold pursuant to a registration statement or Rule 144 (the “ Effectiveness Period ”). At such time the Company is no longer required to keep the Registration Statement current and effective for the Common Shares held by a Purchaser (the “ Registration Statement Termination Date ”), that Purchaser will no longer accrue any additional liquidated damages payments pursuant to Sections 6.1(a) or 6.2(c); however, the Company shall still be obligated to make all payments under Sections 6.1(a) or 6.2(c) that were not made prior to the Registration Statement Termination Date for that Purchaser. The Company shall notify each Purchaser promptly upon the Registration Statement and each post-effective amendment thereto, being declared effective by the SEC and advise each Purchaser that the form of Prospectus contained in the Registration Statement or post-effective amendment thereto, as the case may be, at the time of effectiveness meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act or that it intends to file a Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act that meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act;

 

(ii)         furnish to the Purchaser with respect to the Common Shares registered under the Registration Statement such number of copies of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (including supplemental prospectuses) filed with the SEC in conformance with the requirements of the Securities Act and other such documents as the Purchaser may reasonably request, in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of all or any of the Common Shares by the Purchaser;

 

(iii)        make any necessary blue sky filings;

 

(iv)        pay the expenses incurred by the Company and the Purchasers in complying with Section 6, including, all registration and filing fees, FINRA fees, exchange listing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses and the expense of any special audits incident to or required by any such registration (but excluding attorneys’ fees of any Purchaser and any and all underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities by the Purchasers);

 

(v)         advise the Purchasers, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge of the issuance of any stop order by the SEC delaying or suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of the initiation of any proceeding for that purpose (collectively, a “ Stop Order ”); and it will promptly use its commercially reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any Stop Order or to obtain its withdrawal at the earliest possible moment if such Stop Order should be issued; and

 

Page 19  

 

 

(vi)        with a view to making available to the Purchaser the benefits of Rule 144 and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Purchaser to sell Common Shares to the public without registration, the Company covenants and agrees to use its commercially reasonable best efforts to: (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144, until the earlier of (A) such date as all of the Common Shares qualify to be resold immediately pursuant to Rule 144 or any other rule of similar effect or (B) such date as all of the Common Shares shall have been resold pursuant to Rule 144 (and may be further resold without restriction); (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and under the Exchange Act; and (iii) furnish to the Purchaser upon request, as long as the Purchaser owns any Common Shares, (A) a written statement by the Company as to whether it has complied with the reporting requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (B) if not available on the SEC EDGAR system, a copy of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and (C) such other information as may be reasonably requested in order to avail the Purchaser of any rule or regulation of the SEC that permits the selling of any such Common Shares without registration.

 

The Company understands that the Purchasers disclaim being an underwriter, but acknowledges that a determination by the SEC that a Purchaser is deemed an underwriter shall not relieve the Company of any obligations it has hereunder.

 

6.2          Transfer of Shares After Registration; Suspension.

 

(a)        Except in the event that Section 6.2(b) applies, the Company shall: (i) if deemed necessary or advisable by the Company, prepare and file from time to time with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or a supplement or amendment to any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that such Registration Statement will not 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 not misleading, and so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Common Shares being sold thereunder, such Prospectus will not 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; (ii) provide the Purchasers copies, or access to copies, of any documents filed pursuant to Section 6.2(a)(i); and (iii) upon request, inform each Purchaser who so requests that the Company has complied with its obligations in Section 6.2(b)(i) (or that, if the Company has filed a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement which has not yet been declared effective, the Company will notify the Purchaser to that effect, will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to secure the effectiveness of such post-effective amendment as promptly as possible and will promptly notify the Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.2(b)(i) when the amendment has become effective).

 

(b)        Subject to Section 6.2(c), in the event: (i) of any request by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or related Prospectus or for additional information; (ii) of the issuance by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) 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 Common Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; or (iv) of any event or circumstance which necessitates the making of any changes in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any 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 not misleading, and that in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any 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 the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; then the Company shall promptly deliver a certificate in writing to the Purchasers (the “ Suspension Notice ”) to the effect of the foregoing and, upon receipt of such Suspension Notice, the Purchasers will refrain from selling any Common Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement (a “ Suspension ”) until the Purchasers are advised in writing by the Company that the current Prospectus may be used, and have received copies from the Company of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in any such Prospectus. In the event of any Suspension, the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the use of the Prospectus so suspended to be resumed as soon as reasonably practicable after delivery of a Suspension Notice to the Purchasers. In addition to and without limiting any other remedies (including, without limitation, at law or at equity) available to the Company and the Purchaser, the Company and the Purchasers shall be entitled to specific performance in the event that the other party fails to comply with the provisions of this Section 6.2(b).

 

Page 20  

 

 

(c)        Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 6.2, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to ensure that (i) a Suspension shall not exceed 30 days individually, (ii) Suspensions covering no more than 45 days, in the aggregate, shall occur during any twelve month period and (iii) each Suspension shall be separated by a period of at least 30 days from a prior Suspension (each Suspension that satisfies the foregoing criteria being referred to herein as a “ Qualifying Suspension ”). In the event that there occurs a Suspension (or part thereof) that does not constitute a Qualifying Suspension, the Company shall pay to the Purchaser, on the 30 th day following the first day of such Suspension (or the first day of such part), and on each 30 th day thereafter, an amount equal to 1% of the Purchase Price paid for the Securities purchased by the Purchaser and not previously sold by the Purchaser with such payments to be prorated on a daily basis during each 30 day period (in the event of any sales of the Purchaser’s securities during such period) and will be paid to the Purchaser by wire transfer or check within five business days after the end of each 30 day period following. The maximum amounts due under this Section 6.2(c) shall be 6% of the Purchase Price paid for the Securities purchased by the Purchaser and not previously sold by the Purchaser.

 

(d)        If a Suspension is not then in effect, the Purchasers may sell Common Shares under the Registration Statement, provided that they comply with any applicable prospectus delivery requirements. Upon receipt of a request therefor, the Company will provide an adequate number of current Prospectuses to a Purchaser and to any other parties reasonably requiring such Prospectuses.

 

(e)        The Company agrees that it shall, immediately subsequent to the Registration Statement being declared effective, deliver to its transfer agent an opinion letter of counsel, opining that at any time the Registration Statement is effective, the transfer agent may issue, in connection with the sale of the Common Shares, certificates representing such Common Shares without restrictive legend, provided the Common Shares are to be sold pursuant to the prospectus contained in the Registration Statement. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company shall cause the transfer agent to confirm, for the benefit of the Purchasers, that no further opinion of counsel is required at the time of transfer in order to issue such Common Shares without restrictive legend.

 

The Company shall cause its transfer agent to issue a certificate without any restrictive legend to a purchaser of any Common Shares from the Purchasers, if no Suspension is in effect at the time of sale, and (a) the sale of such Common Shares is registered under the Registration Statement (including registration pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act); (b) the holder has provided the Company with an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Common Shares may be made without registration under the Securities Act; or (c) such Common Shares are sold in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act. In addition, the Company shall remove the restrictive legend from any Common Shares held by the Purchasers following the expiration of the holding period required by Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule).

 

6.3          Indemnification. For the purpose of this Section 6.3:

 

(a)        the term “ Selling Shareholder ” shall mean a Purchaser, its executive officers and directors and each person, if any, who controls that Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act;

 

Page 21  

 

 

(b)           the term “ Registration Statement ” shall include any final Prospectus, exhibit, supplement or amendment included in or relating to, and any document incorporated by reference in, the Registration Statement (or deemed to be a part thereof) referred to in Section 6.1; and

 

(c)           the term “ untrue statement ” shall mean any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, or any omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

 

(d)           The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Selling Shareholder from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Selling Shareholder may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon (i) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, (ii) any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement or the failure of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder or (iii) any failure by the Company to fulfill any undertaking included in the Registration Statement, and the Company will reimburse such Selling Shareholder for any reasonable legal expense or other actual accountable out of pocket expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of, or is based upon, an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Selling Shareholder specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement or the failure of such Selling Shareholder to comply with its covenants and agreements contained herein or any statement or omission in any Prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent Prospectus that was delivered to the Selling Shareholder prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Selling Shareholder.

 

(e)           Each Purchaser severally (as to itself), and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company (and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, each officer of the Company who signs the Registration Statement and each director of the Company) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company (or any such officer, director or controlling person) may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise), insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon, (i) any failure by that Purchaser to comply with the covenants and agreements contained herein or (ii) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement if, and only if, such untrue statement was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of that Purchaser specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement, and that Purchaser will reimburse the Company (or such officer, director or controlling person, as the case may be), for any reasonable legal expense or other reasonable actual accountable out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim. The obligation to indemnify shall be limited to the net amount of the proceeds received by the Purchaser from the sale of the Common Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement.

 

Page 22

 

 

 

(f)            Promptly after receipt by any indemnified person of a notice of a claim or the beginning of any action in respect of which indemnity is to be sought against an indemnifying person pursuant to this Section 6.3, such indemnified person shall notify the indemnifying person in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such action, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under this Section 6.3 (except to the extent that such omission materially and adversely affects the indemnifying party’s ability to defend such action) or from any liability otherwise than under this Section 6.3. Subject to the provisions hereinafter stated, in case any such action shall be brought against an indemnified person, the indemnifying person shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it shall elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified person. After notice from the indemnifying person to such indemnified person of its election to assume the defense thereof (unless it has failed to assume the defense thereof and appoint counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party), such indemnifying person shall not be liable to such indemnified person for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified person in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if there exists or shall exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the indemnified person, for the same counsel to represent both the indemnified person and such indemnifying person or any affiliate or associate thereof, the indemnified person shall be entitled to retain its own counsel (who shall not be the same as the opining counsel) at the expense of such indemnifying person; provided, however, that no indemnifying person shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel (together with appropriate local counsel) for all indemnified parties. In no event shall any indemnifying person be liable in respect of any amounts paid in settlement of any action unless the indemnifying person shall have approved the terms of such settlement; provided that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No indemnifying person shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified person is or could reasonably have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

 

(g)           If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.3 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (d) or (e) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the liable Purchaser on the other in connection with the statements or omissions or other matters which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, in the case of an untrue statement, whether the untrue statement relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the liable Purchaser on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement. The Company and the Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (g) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (g). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (g) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (g), no Purchasers shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net amount received by that Purchaser from the sale of the Common Shares to which such loss relates exceeds the amount of any damages which that Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay to the Company by reason of such untrue statement. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Purchasers’ obligations in this subsection to contribute are several in proportion to their sales of Common Shares to which such loss relates and not joint.

(h)           The parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledge that they are sophisticated business persons who were represented by counsel during the negotiations regarding the provisions hereof including, without limitation, the provisions of this Section 6.3, and are fully informed regarding said provisions. They further acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 6.3 fairly allocate the risks in light of the ability of the parties to investigate the Company and its business in order to assure that adequate disclosure is made in the Registration Statement as required by the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

 

(i)            The obligations of the Company and of the Purchasers under this Section 6.3 shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement for a period of two years from the effective date of the Registration Statement. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

 

6.4          Termination of Conditions and Obligations. The conditions precedent imposed by Section 3 or this Section 6 upon the transferability of the Common Shares shall cease and terminate as to any particular number of the Common Shares when such Common Shares shall have been effectively registered under the Securities Act and sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the intended method of disposition set forth in the Registration Statement covering such Common Shares or at such time as an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company shall have been rendered to the effect that such conditions are not necessary in order to comply with the Securities Act. The Company shall request an opinion of counsel promptly upon receipt of a request therefor from Purchaser.

 

6.5           Information Available. So long as the Registration Statement is effective covering the resale of Common Shares owned by a Purchaser, the Company will furnish (or, to the extent such information is available electronically through the Company’s filings with the SEC, the Company will make available via the SEC’s EDGAR system or any successor thereto) to each Purchaser:

 

(a)           as soon as practicable after it is available, one copy of (i) its Annual Report to Shareholders (which Annual Report shall contain financial statements audited in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles by a national firm of certified public accountants) and (ii) if not included in substance in the Annual Report to Shareholders, its Annual Report on Form 10-K (the foregoing, in each case, excluding exhibits);

 

(b)           upon the request of the Purchaser, all exhibits excluded by the parenthetical to subparagraph (a)(ii) of this Section 6.5 as filed with the SEC and all other information that is made available to shareholders; and

 

(c)           upon the reasonable request of the Purchaser, an adequate number of copies of the Prospectuses to supply to any other party requiring such Prospectuses; and the Company, upon the reasonable request of a Purchaser, will meet with each Purchaser or a representative thereof at the Company’s headquarters during the Company’s normal business hours to discuss all information relevant for disclosure in the Registration Statement covering the Common Shares and will otherwise reasonably cooperate with the Purchasers conducting an investigation for the purpose of reducing or eliminating the Purchasers’ exposure to liability under the Securities Act, including the reasonable production of information at the Company’s headquarters; provided, that the Company shall not be required to disclose any confidential information to or meet at its headquarters with a Purchaser until and unless that Purchaser shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company with the Company with respect thereto.

 

Page 24

 

  

6.6           Public Statements; Limitation on Information . The Company agrees to disclose on a Current Report on Form 8-K the existence of the Offering and the material terms, thereof, including pricing, within two business days after it specifies the Closing Date in accordance with Section 1.3. Such Current Report on Form 8-K shall include a form of this Agreement (and all exhibits and schedules thereto) as an exhibit thereto. The Company will not issue any public statement, press release or any other public disclosure listing a Purchaser as one of the purchasers of the Common Shares without that Purchaser’s prior written consent, except as may be required by applicable law or rules of any exchange on which the Company’s securities are listed. The Company shall not provide, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries and the respective officers, directors, employees and agents of the Company and each of its subsidiaries not to provide, the Purchasers with any material nonpublic information regarding the Company or any subsidiary from and after the date the Company files, or is required by this Section to file, the Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC without the prior express written consent of the Purchaser.

 

6.7          Limits on Additional Issuances. The Company will not, for a period of six months following the Closing Date offer for sale or sell any securities unless, in the opinion of the Company’s counsel, such offer or sale does not jeopardize the availability of exemptions from the registration and qualification requirements under applicable securities laws with respect to the Offering. Except for the issuance of stock options under the Company’s stock option plans, the issuance of common stock upon exercise of outstanding options and warrants, the issuance of common stock purchase warrants, and the offering contemplated hereby, the Company has not engaged in any offering of equity securities during the six months prior to the date of this Agreement which the Company believes would be integrated with the Offering. The foregoing provisions shall not prevent the Company from filing a “shelf” registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, but the foregoing provisions shall apply to any sale of securities thereunder.

 

6.8          Form D and State Securities Filings . The Company will file with the SEC a Notice of Sale of Securities on Form D with respect to the Securities, as required under Regulation D under the Securities Act, no later than 15 days after the Closing Date. The Company will promptly and timely file all documents and pay all filing fees required by any states’ securities laws in connection with the sale of Securities.

 

6.9         Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 6 may be assigned by a Purchaser to a party that acquires, other than pursuant to the Registration Statement or Rule 144, any of the Shares and Warrant Shares originally issued or issuable to such Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and the Warrants (or any Common Stock issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of, any such Shares or Warrant Shares), or to any affiliate of a Purchaser that acquires any Registrable Securities. Any such permitted assignee shall have all the rights of such Purchaser under this Section 6 with respect to the Registrable Securities transferred during the Effectiveness Period.

 

6.10       Selling Shareholder Questionnaire. Each Purchaser agrees to furnish to the Company a completed questionnaire in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit C (a “ Selling Holder Questionnaire ”). The Company shall not be required to include the Registrable Securities of a Purchaser in a Registration Statement and shall not be required to pay any liquidated or other damages hereunder to any such Purchaser who fails to furnish to the Company a fully completed Selling Holder Questionnaire at least three business days prior to the filing of the Registration Statement.

 

7.            Miscellaneous.

 

7.1          Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the choice of law provisions thereof, and the federal laws of the United States.

7.3          Entire Agreement.

7.4          Severability. In the event any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, it shall to the extent practicable, be modified so as to make it valid, legal and enforceable and to retain as nearly as practicable the intent of the parties, and the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

 

7.5          Amendment and Waiver. Except as otherwise provided herein, any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance, either retroactively or prospectively, and either for a specified period of time or indefinitely), with the written consent of the Company and each Purchaser. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 7.5 shall be binding upon any holder of any Securities purchased under this Agreement (including securities into which such Securities have been converted), each future holder of all such securities, and the Company.

 

7.6          Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Company and the Purchasers shall bear their own expenses and legal fees incurred on their behalf with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each party hereby agrees to indemnify and to hold harmless of and from any liability the other party for any commission or compensation in the nature of a finder’s fee to any broker or other person or firm (and the costs and expenses of defending against such liability or asserted liability) for which such indemnifying party or any of its employees or representatives are responsible.

Each Purchaser confirms that it has independently participated in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors.

5.       Delivery of Warrant Shares.

 

(a)       To effect exercises hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant unless the aggregate Warrant Shares represented by this Warrant are being exercised. Upon delivery of the Exercise Notice (in the form attached hereto) to the Company (with the attached Warrant Shares Exercise Log) at its address for notice set forth herein and upon payment of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares that the Holder intends to purchase hereunder and, the Company shall promptly (but in no event later than three Trading Days after the Date of Exercise (as defined herein)) issue and deliver to the Holder, a certificate for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, which, unless otherwise required by the Purchase Agreement, shall be free of restrictive legends. The Company shall, upon request of the Holder and subsequent to the date on which a registration statement covering the resale of the Warrant Shares has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, use its reasonable best efforts to deliver Warrant Shares hereunder electronically through the Depository Trust Corporation or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions, if available, provided, that, the Company may, but will not be required to change its transfer agent if its current transfer agent cannot deliver Warrant Shares electronically through the Depository Trust Corporation. A “ Date of Exercise ” means the date on which the Holder shall have delivered to the Company: (i) the Exercise Notice (with the Warrant Exercise Log attached to it), appropriately completed and duly signed and (ii) if such Holder is not utilizing the cashless exercise provisions set forth in this Warrant, payment of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares so indicated by the Holder to be purchased.

 

(b)        If by the third Trading Day after a Date of Exercise the Company fails to deliver the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 5(a), then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

 

(c)        If by the third Trading Day after a Date of Exercise the Company fails to deliver the required number of Warrant Shares in the manner required pursuant to Section 5(a), and if after such third Trading Day and prior to the receipt of such Warrant Shares, the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) 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 (1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount 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 (A) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue by (B) the closing bid price of the Common Stock at the time of the obligation giving rise to such purchase obligation and (2) 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 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. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In.

 

(d)        The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver Warrant Shares 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 Warrant Shares. 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 Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

Page B- 3  

 

 

6.       Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance and delivery of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax, withholding tax, transfer agent fee or other incidental tax or expense in respect of the issuance of such certificates, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrant Shares or Warrants in a name other than that of the Holder. The Holder shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Warrant Shares upon exercise hereof.

 

7.       Replacement of Warrant. If this Warrant is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation hereof, or in lieu of and substitution for this Warrant, a New Warrant, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable indemnity (which shall not include a surety bond), if requested. Applicants for a New Warrant under such circumstances shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and procedures and pay such other reasonable third-party costs as the Company may prescribe. If a New Warrant is requested as a result of a mutilation of this Warrant, then the Holder shall deliver such mutilated Warrant to the Company as a condition precedent to the Company’s obligation to issue the New Warrant.

 

8.       Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep available out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued and otherwise unreserved Common Stock, solely for the purpose of enabling it to issue Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant as herein provided, the number of Warrant Shares which are then issuable and deliverable upon the exercise of this entire Warrant, free from preemptive rights or any other contingent purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 9). The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares so issuable and deliverable shall, upon issuance and the payment of the applicable Exercise Price in accordance with the terms hereof, be duly and validly authorized, issued and fully paid and nonassessable.

 

9.       Certain Adjustments. The Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 9.

 

(a)       Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) pays a stock dividend on its Common Stock or otherwise makes a distribution on any class of capital stock that is payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, or (iii) combines outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to equal the product obtained by multiplying the then-current Exercise Price by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, and any adjustment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination.

 

Page B- 4  

 

 

(b)       Fundamental Transactions. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding there is a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the same amount and kind 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 the number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise in full of this Warrant (the “ Alternate Consideration ”). 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. At the Holder’s option and request, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall, either (1) issue to the Holder a new warrant substantially in the form of this Warrant and consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder’s right to purchase the Alternate Consideration for the aggregate Exercise Price upon exercise thereof, or (2) purchase the Warrant from the Holder for a purchase price, payable in cash within five Trading Days after such request (or, if later, on the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction), equal to the Black Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of such request. 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 (b) and insuring that the Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction analogous to a Fundamental Transaction.

 

(c)       Price Antidilution. If within twelve months from the Original Issue Date the Company shall issue any (i) Common Stock (except in connection with the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock) or (ii) any securities of the Company or the subsidiary that would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, rights, options, warrants or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Stock (“ Common Stock Equivalents ” and collectively “ Additional Shares ”), entitling any person or entity to acquire shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share less than the Exercise Price then in effect, except for the Exempt Issuances (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the Exercise Price shall be amended to equal the then current Exercise Price x (A + B) ¸ (A + C). For purposes of the foregoing formula, the following definitions shall apply: (I) “A” means the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding and deemed outstanding immediately prior to such issue of Additional Shares (treating for this purpose as outstanding all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of options and convertible securities as outstanding immediately prior to such issue); (II) “B” means the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if such Additional Shares had been issued at a price per share equal to the then current Exercise Price (determined by dividing the aggregate consideration received by the Company in respect of such issue by the then current Exercise Price); and (III) “C” means the number of such Additional Shares issued in such transaction.

 

The sale of Common Stock Equivalents shall be deemed to have occurred at the time of the issuance of the Common Stock Equivalents and the purchase price covered thereby shall also include the actual exercise or conversion price thereof at the time of the issuance, without any further adjustments to the exercise price upon the conversion or exercise of any Common Stock Equivalents.  If shares are issued for a consideration other than cash, the per share selling price shall be the fair value of such consideration as determined in good faith by the board of directors of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this section shall not apply to an Exempt Issuance (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

 

In the event of any adjustment under this Section 9(c), the Company shall promptly amend the Registration Statement or file a new Registration Statement pursuant to the provisions of Section 6 of the Purchase Agreement to register the additional Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. In no event shall the number of Warrant Shares increase if such increase shall result in the Purchasers acquiring, or obtaining the right to acquire, in excess of 19.999% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or voting power of the Company on a post-transaction basis that assumes that the closing of the Additional Shares shall have occurred.

 

Page B- 5  

 

 

(d)       [Reserved]

 

(e)       Calculations. All calculations under this Section 9 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100 th of a share, as applicable. The number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any given time shall not include shares owned or held by or for the account of the Company, and the disposition of any such shares shall be considered an issue or sale of Common Stock.

 

(f)       Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment pursuant to this Section 9, the Company at its expense will promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number or type of Warrant Shares or other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (as applicable), describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. Upon written request, the Company will promptly deliver a copy of each such certificate to the Holder and to the Company’s Transfer Agent.

 

10.        Payment of Exercise Price. The Holder may pay the Exercise Price in one of the following manners:

 

(a)       Cash Exercise. The Holder may deliver immediately available funds; or

 

(b)       Cashless Exercise. If the Company does not have an effective Registration Statement covering the resale of the Registrable Securities within 180 days after Closing or anytime thereafter, then the Holder may notify the Company in an Exercise Notice of its election to utilize cashless exercise, in which event the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares determined as follows:

 

X = Y [(A-B)/A]  

 

where:  

 

X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder.  

 

Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised.  

 

A = the average of the Closing Prices for the five Trading Days immediately prior to (but not including) the Exercise Date.  

 

B = the Exercise Price.  

 

For purposes of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Warrant Shares issued in a cashless exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired by the Holder, and the holding period for the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to have commenced, on the date this Warrant was originally issued.

 

11.       No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of any fractional shares which would, otherwise be issuable, the Company may (a) pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the Closing Price of one Warrant Share on the date of exercise; or (b) round up the amount of any fractional share to the next highest whole number of shares.

 

12.       Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries hereunder (including, without limitation, any Exercise Notice) shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective if provided pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. In case any time: (1) the Company shall declare any cash dividend on its common stock; (2) the Company shall pay any dividend payable in stock upon its common stock or make any distribution to the holders of its common stock; (3) the Company shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of its common stock any additional shares of stock of any class or other rights; (4) there shall be any capital reorganization, or reclassification of the common stock of the Company, or consolidation or merger of the Company with, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets to, another corporation; or (5) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall give prompt written notice to the Holder. Such notice shall also specify the date as of which the holders of capital stock of record shall participate in such dividend, distribution or subscription rights, or shall be entitled to exchange their capital stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, or conversion or redemption, as the case may be. Such written notice shall be given at least 20 days prior to the action in question and not less than 20 days prior to the record date or the date on which the Company’s transfer books are closed in respect thereto.

14.       Miscellaneous.

 

(a)        This Warrant shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Subject to the preceding sentence, nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give to any Person other than the Company and the Holder any legal or equitable right, remedy or cause of action under this Warrant.

all of a portion of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the selling shareholders or their perspective pledgees, donees, transferees or successors in interest, may be sold on the OTCQB, any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the shares of our Common Stock may be listed or quoted at the time of sale, in the over-the counter market, in privately negotiated transactions, through the writing of options, whether such options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise, short sales or in a combination of such transactions;

 

each sale may be made at market price prevailing at the time of such sale, at negotiated prices, at fixed prices or at carrying prices determined at the time of sale;

 

some or all of the shares of Common Stock may be sold through one or more broker-dealers or agents and may involve crosses, block transactions or hedging transactions. The selling shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or agents, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Common Stock in the course of hedging in positions they assume. The selling shareholders may also sell shares of Common Stock short and deliver shares of Common Stock to close out short positions or loan or pledge shares of Common Stock to broker-dealers or agents that in turn may sell such shares; and

 

in connection with such sales through one or more broker-dealers or agents, such broker-dealers or agents may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling shareholders and may receive commissions from the purchasers of the shares of Common Stock for whom they act as broker-dealer or agent or to whom they sell as principal (which discounts, concessions or commissions as to particular broker-dealers or agents may be in excess of those customary in the types of transaction involved). Any broker-dealer or agent participating in any such sale may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and will be required to deliver a copy of this prospectus to any person who purchases any share of Common Stock from or through such broker-dealer or agent. We have been advised that, as of the date hereof, none of the selling shareholders have made any arrangements with any broker-dealer or agent for the sale of their shares of common stock.

The selling shareholder and any broker-dealer participating in the distribution of the shares of Common Stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any profits realized by the selling shareholders and any commissions paid, or any discounts or concessions allowed to any such broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. In addition, any shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus. A selling shareholder may also transfer, devise or gift the shares of Common Stock by other means not covered in this prospectus in which case the transferee, devisee or giftee will be the selling shareholder under this prospectus.

 

If required at the time a particular offering of the shares of Common Stock is made, a prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the shelf registration statements of which this prospectus is a part, will be distributed which will set forth the aggregate amount of shares of Common Stock being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any broker-deals or agents, any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to broker-dealers.

 

Under the securities laws of some states, the shares of Common Stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the shares of Common Stock may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with. There can be no assurance that any selling shareholder will sell any or all of the shares of Common Stock registered pursuant to the shelf registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

The selling shareholders and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of Common Stock by the selling shareholders and any other participating person. Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of Common Stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of Common Stock. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of Common Stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of Common Stock.

 

We will bear all expenses of the registration of the shares of Common Stock including, without limitation, Securities and Exchange Commission filing fees and expenses of compliance with the state securities of “blue sky” laws. The selling shareholders will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions and expenses, brokerage fees and transfer taxes, as well as the fees and disbursements of counsel to and experts for the selling shareholders, if any. We will indemnify the selling shareholders against liabilities, including some liabilities under the Securities Act, in accordance with the registration rights agreement or the selling shareholder will be entitled to contribution. We will be indemnified by the selling shareholders against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act that may arise from any written information furnished to us by the selling shareholders for use in this prospectus, in accordance with the related securities purchase agreement or will be entitled to contribution. Once sold under this shelf registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, the shares of Common Stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

Board Representation Agreement

 

This agreement (the “ Agreement ”) is made as of July 31, 2017, by Monaker Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “ Company ”), and Pacific Grove Capital LP (the “ Investor ”).

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to and subject to the terms and conditions of that certain Common Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and the Investor (and certain other investors) dated the date hereof (as amended, modified or supplemented, the “ Purchase Agreement ”), the Company has agreed to issue and sell to the Investor, and the Investor has agreed to purchase from the Company, certain shares of common stock and warrants to purchase shares of common stock of the Company described therein (the “ Securities ”); and

 

WHEREAS, as an inducement to the Investor to enter into the Purchase Agreement and purchase the Securities, the Company desires to provide the Investor with certain representation rights regarding the Company’s board of directors (the “ Board ”).

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

 

1.    Board Representative Rights .

 

(a)        Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and provided that the Investor together with its Affiliates Beneficially Own 4.99% or greater of the Outstanding Equity, the Investor shall have the right (but not the obligation) to designate one person to be nominated for election to the Board (a “ Nominee ”) by giving written notice to the Chairman of the Board or the Secretary of the Company. The Nominee shall be selected by the Investor in reasonable consultation with (but without the need for the approval of) the Company’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of its Board of Directors (the “ Nominating Committee ”).

 

(b)       Provided the Investor exercises its right under Section 1(a) , the Company shall: (i) within 15 Business Days increase the size of the Board from seven to eight members; (ii) appoint such Nominee as a member of the Board; and (iii) at all times during the Designation Period, include, and shall use its best efforts to cause the Board, whether acting through the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board or otherwise, to include the Nominee in the slate of nominees recommended to the stockholders for election as a director at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders held during the Designation Period (or, if permitted, by any action by written consent of the stockholders taken during the Designation Period) at or by which directors of the Company are to be elected.

 

(c)        If a Board vacancy occurs during the Designation Period solely because of the death, disability, disqualification, resignation, or removal of the Nominee, the Investor shall be entitled to designate such person’s successor in accordance with Section 2(b)

 

(d)        If during the Designation Period the Nominee is not nominated or elected to the Board because of such Nominee’s death, disability, disqualification, withdrawal as a nominee or such Nominee is for any other reason unavailable or unable to serve on the Board, the Investor may promptly designate another Nominee in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 1 and the director position for which such Nominee was nominated shall not be filled pending such designation. 

  

(e)        A Nominee is entitled to the same compensation paid and expense reimbursement payable to other non-employee Directors

 

 

 

  

2.      Company Obligations.

 

(a)       Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company is not obligated to appoint any Nominee to serve on the Board or cause to be nominated for election to the Board or recommend to the stockholders the election of any Nominee: (i) who fails to submit to the Company on a timely basis such questionnaires as the Company may reasonably require of its directors generally and such other information as the Company may reasonably request in connection with the preparation of its filings under the Securities Laws; or (ii) if the Board or the Nominating Committee (if any) determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that (A) such action would constitute a breach of its fiduciary duties or applicable law or violate the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws; or (B) such Nominee would not be qualified under any applicable law, rule or regulation to serve as a Director of the Company; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of either (i) or (ii) above, the Company shall promptly notify the Investor of the occurrence of such event and permit the Investor to provide an alternate Nominee sufficiently in advance of any Board action, the meetings of the stockholders called or written action of stockholders with respect to such election of nominees and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to perform its obligations under Section 1 with respect to such alternate Nominee (provided that if the Company provides at least 45 days advance notice of the occurrence of any such event such alternative nominee must be designated by the Investor not less than 30 days in advance of any Board action, notice of meeting of the stockholders or written action of stockholders with respect to such election of nominees), and in no event shall the Company be obligated to postpone, reschedule, or delay any scheduled meeting of the stockholders with respect to such election of Nominees.

 

(b)       If at any time during Designation Period a Board vacancy occurs solely because of the death, disability, disqualification, resignation or removal of the Nominee, then the Board, or any committee thereof, shall not fill such vacancy until the earliest to occur of: (i) the Investor’s designation of a successor Nominee (which successor Nominee shall be designated in accordance with Section 1(a) and subject to the terms of Section 2(a)) and the Board’s appointment of such successor Nominee to fill the vacancy; (ii) the Investor’s failure to designate a successor Nominee within 75 Business Days after receiving notification of the vacancy from the Company; or (iii) the Investor’s specifically waiving in writing its rights under this Section 3(b). For the purposes of clarity, the Company shall have the right to fill any Board vacancy which may occur due to any reason other than the death, disability, disqualification, resignation, or removal of the Nominee in accordance with the terms of the Company’s By-Laws and Certificate of Incorporation. 

 

3.     Notices . Notices are to be delivered in writing, in the case of the Company, to 2690 Weston Road, Suite #200, Weston, FL 33331, Attention: Chairman, and in the case of the Investor, to 580 California St., Suite 1925, San Francisco, CA 94104, Attention: Jamie Mendola, or to such other address as may be given by each party from time to time under this Section. Notices shall be deemed properly given upon personal delivery, the day following deposit by overnight carrier, or three days after deposit in the U.S. mail.

 

4.     Miscellaneous Provisions . This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties, and supersedes any and all previous agreements and understandings, whether oral or written, between the parties regarding the matters set out in this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived, except in a writing signed by the parties hereto. This Agreement may not be assigned by the Investor. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision, and if any restriction in this Agreement is found by a court to be unreasonable or unenforceable, then such court may amend or modify the restriction so it can be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. The section headings in this Agreement have been inserted as a matter of convenience of reference and are not a part of this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed by electronic signature in any number of counterparts, each of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Any waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Agreement. The failure of a party to insist on strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on one or more occasions shall not be construed as a waiver or deprive such party of the right to thereafter insist on strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement.

5.      Remedies . The Company, on the one hand, and the Investor, on the other hand, each acknowledge and agree that monetary damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach (or threatened breach) of this Agreement by it and that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach hereof, (a) the non-breaching party shall have the right to immediate injunctive and other equitable relief, without proof of actual damages; (b) the breaching party will not plead in defense thereto that there would be an adequate remedy at law; and (c) the breaching party agrees to waive any applicable right or requirement that a bond be posted by the non-breaching party. Such remedies will not be the exclusive remedies for a breach of this Agreement, but will be in addition to all other remedies that may be available to the non-breaching party at law or in equity. In the event that either party institutes any legal suit, action or proceeding against the other party arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the prevailing party in the suit, action or proceeding shall be entitled to receive, in addition to all other damages to which it may be entitled, the costs incurred by such party in conducting the suit, action or proceeding, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and court costs.

 

6.      Applicable Law . This Agreement, and any and all claims, controversies and causes of action arising out of or relating to this Agreement, whether sounding in contract, tort or statute, shall be governed by the laws of New York, including its statutes of limitations, without giving effect to any conflict-of-laws rule that would result in the application of the laws of a different jurisdiction.

 

7.      Termination .

 

(a)        This Agreement shall become effective upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement (the “ Effective Date ”).

 

(b)        The rights of the Investor under Section 1 of this Agreement terminate automatically upon the latter to occur of (i) the Investor together with its Affiliates ceasing to Beneficially Own at least 4.99% of the Outstanding Equity, whether as a result of dilution, Transfer or otherwise, and (ii) the Investor together with its Affiliates ceasing to Beneficially Own at least 75% of the Securities purchased under the Purchase Agreement (the “ Nominee Termination Event ”).

(c)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the occurrence of a General Termination Event, this Agreement shall be automatically terminated and of no further force and effect, and no party hereto shall have any surviving obligations, rights, or duties hereunder after such termination. Within three Business Days after the occurrence of a General Termination Event (i) that results from a Transfer of Common Stock by the Investor, the Investor shall notify the Company of such event and (ii) that results from any other event or occurrence, the Company shall notify the Investor of such event (in each case, a “ General Termination Notice ”).
