WHEREAS, in connection with the purchase of the Common Shares (or Pre-funded Warrants in lieu thereof) by the Purchasers, each Purchaser shall receive a warrant, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Common Warrant”, and collectively with the Pre-Funded Warrants, the “Warrants”), to acquire that number of shares of Common Stock, at an exercise of $1.00 per share (as appropriately adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, reclassifications, reorganizations, combinations and the like), equal to 100% of the number of Common Shares and Pre-funded Warrants purchased by such Purchaser;

 

WHEREAS, the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are referred to herein as the “Warrant Shares.” The Common Shares, the Warrants, and the Warrant Shares are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities” and each of them may individually be referred to herein as a “Security”; and

Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company shall cause the transfer agent to confirm, orally or in writing, for the benefit of the Purchasers, that no further opinion of counsel is required at the time of transfer in order to issue such shares without such restrictive legend.

The legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate (or book-entry statement, as applicable), without such legend to the holder of any Security upon which it is stamped, if, unless otherwise required by state securities laws, (i) the sale of such Security is registered under the Securities Act (including registration pursuant to Rule 416 thereunder); (ii) such holder provides 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 Security may be made without registration under the Securities Act; or (iii) such holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such Security can be sold under Rule 144. In the event the above legend is removed from any Security and thereafter the effectiveness of a registration statement covering such Security is suspended or the Company determines that a supplement or amendment thereto is required by applicable securities laws, then, upon reasonable advance written notice to such Purchaser, the Company may require that the above legend be placed on any such Security that cannot then be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or under Rule 144 and such Purchaser shall cooperate in the replacement of such legend. Such legend shall thereafter be removed when such Security may again be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or under Rule 144.

In consideration of each Purchaser’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and purchase of the Securities hereunder, and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, from and after the Closing Date, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser and each other holder of the Securities and all of their stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing persons’ or entities’ agents or other representatives, including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnitees”), from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained in this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby or (iii) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company) and arising out of or resulting from (A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (B) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance and sale of the Securities, or (C) the status of such Purchaser or holder of the Securities as an investor in the Company.

(l)    Joint Participation in Drafting. Each party to this Agreement has participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. As such, the language used herein and therein shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any party to this Agreement.

 

(m)    Knowledge. As used in this Agreement, the term “knowledge” of any person or entity shall mean and include (i) with respect to the Company, the actual knowledge of any of the Company’s officers or directors and (ii) that knowledge which a reasonably prudent business person could have obtained in the management of his or her business affairs after making due inquiry and exercising due diligence which a prudent business person should have made or exercised, as applicable, with respect thereto.

 

(n)    Exculpation Among Purchasers. The Company acknowledges that the obligations of each Purchaser under this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under the Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it has independently evaluated the merits of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, that it has independently determined to enter into the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, that it is not relying on any advice from or evaluation by any other Purchaser, and that it is not acting in concert with any other Purchaser in making its purchase of securities hereunder or in monitoring its investment in the Company. The Purchasers and, to its knowledge, the Company agree that the no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or to the other Transaction Documents, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or would deem such Purchasers to be members of a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, and the Purchasers have not agreed to act together for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of equity securities of the Company. The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by the Purchasers. The Company acknowledges that such procedure with respect to the Transaction Documents in no way creates a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in their review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents.

 

(o)    Business Days and Trading Days. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “business day” means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or a day on which banking institutions in the State of New York are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close, and the term “trading day” means any day on which the Nasdaq Capital Market or, if the Common Stock is not then traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market, the principal national securities exchange, automated quotation system or other trading market where the Common Stock is then listed, quoted or traded, is open for trading.
