This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of the Holder and shall constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Holder enforceable against the Holder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors' rights and remedies.

 

(ii) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by the Holder of this Agreement and the consummation by the Holder of the transactions contemplated hereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents of the Holder or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Holder is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws) applicable to the Holder, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such conflicts, defaults, rights or violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Holder to perform its obligations hereunder.

 

(iii) Title to Notes. The Holder is the beneficial owner and sole legal owner of, and has good and valid title to, the Notes, free and clear of any mortgage, lien, pledge, charge, security interest, encumbrance, title retention agreement, option, equity or other adverse claim thereto other than encumbrances by one or more brokers of the Holder, which shall terminate upon the Closing, and encumbrances under federal or state securities laws ("Claims").

(b) Company Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The Company hereby represents, warrants and covenants, as applicable, to the Holder that:

 

(i) Solvency. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken any steps to seek protection pursuant to any bankruptcy law nor does the Company have knowledge that its creditors or its Subsidiaries' creditors intend to initiate involuntary bankruptcy proceedings or knowledge of any fact which would reasonably lead a creditor to do so. The Company and its Subsidiaries, individually and on a consolidated basis, are not as of the date hereof, and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby will not be, Insolvent.

 

(ii) Organization and Qualification. Each of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries are entities duly organized and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which they are formed, and have the requisite power and authorization to own their properties and to carry on their business as now being conducted and as presently proposed to be conducted. Each of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign entity to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As used in this Agreement, "Material Adverse Effect" means any material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, liabilities, operations, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries, individually or taken as a whole, or on the transactions contemplated hereby or by the agreements and instruments to be entered into in connection herewith, or on the authority or ability of the Company to perform any of its obligations hereunder.

 

(iii) Authorization; Enforcement; Validity. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to issue the Converted Shares in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Converted Shares have been duly authorized by the Company's Board of Directors and no further filing, consent or authorization is required by the Company, its Board of Directors or its stockholders. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors' rights and remedies.

 

(iv) Issuance of Converted Shares. The Converted Shares are duly reserved for issuance and the issuance of the Converted Shares is duly authorized and, upon issuance in accordance with the terms hereof, the Converted Shares shall be validly issued and free from all preemptive or similar rights, taxes, liens and charges and other encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof and the Converted Shares shall be fully paid and nonassessable with the holder thereof being entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of Common Stock. The issuance by the Company of the Converted Shares is in accordance with Sections 3 and 7(d) of the Note and the Converted Shares constitute Conversion Shares (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). The Converted Shares are registered for resale under the Registration Statement with Registration No. 333-196046 (the "Registration Statement"). The Company hereby represents that the Registration Statement is, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, effective and available for resales and the Company has no knowledge of any fact that would cause the Registration Statement not to be effective and available for the resale of the Converted Shares and the other securities registered pursuant thereto. The Company agrees to take all actions, including, without limitation, the issuance by its legal counsel of any necessary legal opinions, necessary to issue Converted Shares that are freely tradable on the Principal Market without restriction and not containing any restrictive legend without the need for any action by the Holder.

(v) Holding Period. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event the Registration Statement is not available for the resale of the Converted Shares or otherwise, for purposes of Rule 144, the Company acknowledges that the holding period of the Converted Shares shall be tacked onto the holding period of the Notes and the Company agrees not to take a position contrary to this Section 3(b)(v).

 

(vi) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Converted Shares) will not (i) result in a violation of the Company' Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws or other organizational documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any capital stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the articles of association or bylaws of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) in any respect under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including foreign, federal and state securities laws and regulations and the rules and regulations of Principal Market and including all applicable foreign, federal laws, rules and regulations) applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or affected.

 

(vii) Consents. The Company is not required to obtain any consent from, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with any court, governmental agency or any regulatory or self-regulatory agency or any other Person in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under or contemplated by this Agreement, in each case, in accordance with the terms hereof. All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and registrations which the Company is required to obtain pursuant to the preceding sentence have been obtained or effected on or prior to the Closing Date, and the Company is unaware of any facts or circumstances which might prevent the Company from obtaining or effecting any of the registration, application or filings contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company is not in violation of the requirements of the Principal Market and has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which could reasonably lead to delisting or suspension of the Common Stock in the foreseeable future. The issuance by the Company of the Converted Shares shall not have the effect of delisting or suspending the Common Stock from the Principal Market.

(viii) Absence of Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by the Principal Market, any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the Common Stock or any of the Company's Subsidiaries or any of the Company's or its Subsidiaries' officers or directors, whether of a civil or criminal nature or otherwise, in their capacities as such.

 

(ix) Other Agreements. The Company is negotiating, and intends to implement, the conversion and redemption of the other Notes issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement that are currently outstanding by entering into other agreements (the "Other Agreements") in the same form as this Agreement.
