3.           Representations; Warranties and Covenants of the Company. The Company represents and warrants to the Investor as follows:

 

(a)    Organization, Good Standing and Qualification. The Company and each Subsidiary is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation.

Unless otherwise qualified, all references to a “Subsidiary” or to “Subsidiaries” in this Agreement shall refer to a Subsidiary or Subsidiaries of the Company.

 

(b)     Corporate Power. The Company has all requisite corporate power to execute and deliver this Agreement, the Original Agreement, the First Restated Agreement and each of the Notes (collectively the “Note Documents”) and to carry out and perform its obligations under the terms of the Note Documents.

 

(c)    Authorization. All corporate action on the part of the Company, its directors and its stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Notes by the Company and the performance of the Company’s issuance of the Notes and the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes, has been taken. The Note Documents, when executed and delivered by the Company, shall constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms, except as enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity and, with respect to rights to indemnity, subject to federal and state securities laws.

 

(d)     Non-Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Note Documents by the Company, and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby, do not (i) contravene or conflict with the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company; (ii) assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties made by the Investor in Section 4 hereof, constitute a violation in any respect of any provision of any federal, state, local or foreign law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree applicable to the Company; or (iii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) or require any consent under, give rise to any right of termination, amendment, cancellation or acceleration of, or to a loss of any material benefit to which the Company is entitled under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, claim or encumbrance on any assets of the Company or under, any contract to which the Company is a party or any permit, license or similar right relating to the Company or by which the Company may be bound or affected.

 

(e)     Governmental Consents.

Each SEC Document, as of its date (or, if amended or superseded by a filing prior to a Closing Date, then on the date of such filing), did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each SEC Document, as it may have been subsequently amended by filings made by the Company with the SEC prior to the date hereof, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to such SEC Document. As of their respective dates, any financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents complied as to form and substance in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied in the United States (“GAAP”), during the periods involved (except in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may exclude footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements), correspond to the books and records of the Company and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company as of the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended. The Company is not required to file and will not be required to file any agreement, note, lease, mortgage, deed or other instrument entered into prior to the date of this Agreement and to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound which has not been previously filed or incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the SEC Documents. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company have signed, and the Company has furnished to the SEC, all certifications required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as of the date hereof. Such certifications contain no exceptions to the matters certified therein and have not been modified or withdrawn; and neither the Company nor any of its officers has received notice from any Governmental Entity questioning or challenging the accuracy of such certifications. The Company is otherwise in compliance with all applicable effective provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules and regulations issued thereunder by the SEC.

 

(g)    Capitalization. The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 250,000,000 shares of Common Stock, 28,614,384 of which are issued and outstanding, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.0001 per share, none of which are outstanding or have been designated. The issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and have not been issued in violation of and are not otherwise subject to preemptive or other similar rights. Except as set forth in its SEC Documents, there are no outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, convertible or exchangeable securities or other rights granted to or by the Company to purchase shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company and there are no commitments, plans or arrangements to issue any shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock. Except as set forth in the SEC Documents, there are no outstanding securities or instruments of the Company which contain any redemption or similar provisions; there are no securities or instruments containing anti-dilution or similar provisions that will be triggered by the issuance of the Conversion Shares; and none of the Company’s capital stock is subject to preemptive rights or any other similar rights or any liens or encumbrances suffered or permitted by the Company. Except as set forth in the SEC Documents, there are no stockholder agreements, voting agreements, or other similar arrangements, with respect to the Company’s capital stock to which the Company is a party or, to the Company’s knowledge, between or among any of the Company’s stockholders. The Company has reserved sufficient shares of its Common Stock for issuance upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with its terms.

 

(h)    Issuance of Conversion Shares. The issuance of the Conversion Shares has been duly authorized and, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of the Notes, the Conversion Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all preemptive or similar rights.

 

(i)    Litigation. Except as set forth in its SEC Documents, no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations are pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened in writing against the Company at law or in equity in any court or before any other governmental authority. There is no action, suit, proceeding, claim, arbitration or investigation pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened that seeks to prevent, enjoin, alter, challenge or delay the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

 

 

(j)    Intellectual Property. The Company has, or has rights to use, all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications, service marks, trade names, trade secrets, inventions, copyrights, licenses and other intellectual property rights and similar rights necessary or required for use in connection with their respective businesses as described in the SEC Documents and which the failure to so have could have a material adverse effect (collectively, the “Intellectual Property Rights”). The Company has not received a notice (written or otherwise) that any of, the Intellectual Property Rights has expired, terminated or been abandoned, or is expected to expire or terminate or be abandoned, within two (2) years from the date of this Agreement, except where such expiration, termination or abandonment would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect. The Company has not received, since the date of the latest audited financial statements included within the SEC Documents, a written notice of a claim or otherwise has any knowledge that the Intellectual Property Rights violate or infringe upon the rights of any person, except as could not have or reasonably be expected to not have a material adverse effect. To the knowledge of the Company, all such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable and there is no existing infringement by another person of any of the Intellectual Property Rights. The Company has taken reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of its intellectual properties, except where failure to do so could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect.

 

(k)    Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Investor contained in Section 4 hereof, the offer, issue, and sale of the Notes are and will be exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and have been registered or qualified (or are exempt from registration and qualification) under the registration, permit, or qualification requirements of all applicable state securities law.

Except as set forth in the SEC Documents, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default (and there exists no condition which, with or without the passage of time or giving of notice or both, would constitute a default) in any material respect in the performance of any bond, debenture, note or any other evidence of indebtedness in any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or any other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them are bound or by which the properties of any of them are bound. The Company and its Subsidiaries possess all certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their business as described in the SEC Documents, except where the failure to possess such certificates, authorizations or permits would not have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect, and the Company has not received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate, authorization or permit.
