As of the date hereof, _____ shares of Common Stock were issued and outstanding, and no shares of Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding.

The Company’s securities are not subject to any preemptive or other preferential rights under the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company or under any agreement to which the Company is a party or, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, under any agreement existing among its shareholders.
3.3 Subsidiaries. Each of the Subsidiaries is a corporation, trust, partnership or other entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, has all requisite power and authority to own or hold under lease the property it purports to own or hold under lease, and to carry on its business as conducted by each such Subsidiary.
3.4 Qualification. Each of the Company and each Subsidiary is duly qualified and in good standing and is duly authorized to do business in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the activities or the character of the properties owned or leased makes such qualification necessary, except for jurisdictions in which the failure to be so qualified would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
3.5 Compliance with Laws; Other Instruments; No Conflicts, etc. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is (a) in violation of any term or provision of its corporate charter or by-laws or other organizational documents, or (b) to the Company’s knowledge, in violation of or in default under any term or provision of any agreement, indenture, mortgage, instrument, permit or license to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties may be bound or affected, or any existing statute, law, governmental rule, regulation or ordinance, or any order of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Body applicable to it or any of its properties, the consequences of which violation or default, either in any one case or taken together with all other such violations or defaults, (x) could have a Material Adverse Effect or (y) could materially and adversely affect the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement or the Note or consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or (z) could render the issuance or the sale of the Note to the Purchaser illegal or invalid.
| 3 |
3.6 Consents and Approvals. No approval by, from or with, and no other action in respect of, any Governmental Body or any other Person (including any holder of any indebtedness, securities or other obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary) is required (a) for or in connection with the valid execution and delivery by the Company of, or the performance by the Company of any obligation under, this Agreement or the Note or the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or (b) as a condition to the legality, validity or enforceability as against the Company of this Agreement or the Note.
3.7 Litigation. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company or any Subsidiary, or affecting any of their respective properties in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Body, which (a) question the validity or legality of this Agreement or the Note or any action taken or to be taken pursuant hereto or thereto or (b) might result, either in any one case or in the aggregate, in (i) a material impairment of the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement or the Note or consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, or (ii) a Material Adverse Effect.
3.8 Private Offering. Neither the Company nor any Person acting on behalf of the Company has taken, or will take, any action which would subject the issuance or sale of the Note to Section 5 of the Securities Act or to the registration or qualification requirements of any securities or “blue sky” law of any applicable jurisdiction.
3.9 No Defaults; Debt; Authorization. (a) Upon receipt of any required consent, no default or event of default, after giving effect to the issuance and sale of the Note and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Note, will exist (or, but for the waiver thereof, would exist), to the Company’s knowledge, under any instrument or agreement evidencing, providing for the issuance or securing of, or otherwise relating to, any secured or unsecured funded indebtedness of the Company.
(b) Upon issuance thereof by the Company and payment therefor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Note will be duly authorized and validly issued, and will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms subject, as to enforcement, to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and the general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity). Upon issuance and delivery of the Conversion Shares following conversion of the Note at the Conversion Price, the Conversion Shares will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, free and clear of any Liens; and the Conversion Shares will not be subject to any preemptive or other preferential rights or voting restrictions under the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company or under any agreement to which the Company is or will be a party, nor will they be subject to any transfer restrictions other than pursuant to customary lock-up agreements.

(b) The Company does not own any “margin stock,” as such term is defined in Regulation G, as amended (12 C.F.R. Part 207), of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. The purchase price of the Note will be used by the Company only for the purposes contemplated hereunder and under the Note. None of the purchase price will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock or for the purpose of reducing or retiring any indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or carry any margin stock or for any other purpose which might cause any portion of the purchase price to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulation G, as amended, of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
3.11 No Lien. None of the assets of the Company or any Subsidiary which are material for the conduct of its business are subject to any Liens.
3.12 Accuracy. The information contained in this Agreement is true and correct in all material respects and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated herein or therein or necessary to make the statements herein or therein not misleading.
4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASER. The Purchaser represents and warrants as follows:
4.1 Investment Representations. (a) The Purchaser hereby acknowledges that the Note is not being registered (i) under the Securities Act or (ii) under any applicable state securities law; and that the Company’s reliance on the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and under applicable state securities laws is predicated in part on the representations hereby made to the Company in this Agreement.
(b) The Purchaser will not sell or transfer all or any part of the Note (except as permitted by Section 5.1 hereof) unless and until it shall first have given notice to the Company describing such sale or transfer and furnished to the Company either (a) an opinion, reasonably satisfactory to counsel for the Company, of counsel (skilled in securities matters, selected by the Purchaser and reasonably satisfactory to the Company) to the effect that the proposed sale or transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act and without registration or qualification under any state law, or (b) an interpretive letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission to the effect that no enforcement action will be recommended if the proposed sale or transfer is made without registration under the Securities Act.
The Purchaser further understands that the Note, unless otherwise agreed by the Company, will bear a legend substantially to the following effect:
| 5 |
THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED, DONATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION OR QUALIFICATION PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS OR APPLICABLE EXEMPTIONS HEREFROM.
The Company may refuse to recognize a transfer of the Note on its books if a holder shall attempt to transfer the Note otherwise than in compliance with this Section 4.1
(c) The Purchaser (i) has adequate means of providing for the Purchaser’s current needs and possible contingencies, (ii) anticipates no need now or in the foreseeable future to sell the Note and (iii) can afford the loss of the Purchaser’s entire investment in the Company.
(d) The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act.
(e) The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of investment in the Company and of making an informed investment decision.
(f) The Purchaser will be the only owner, beneficial or otherwise, of the Note being purchased by the Purchaser hereunder (except as permitted by Section 5.1 hereof).
(g) The Purchaser is aware that no foreign or U.S. federal or state agency has passed upon the Note or made any finding or determination concerning the fairness of the investment represented thereby.
(h) The Purchaser had an opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from representatives of the Company concerning the terms and conditions of this investment, and all such questions have been answered to the full satisfaction of the Purchaser. The Company has not rendered any investment or tax advice to the Purchaser with respect to the suitability of an investment in the Note or the tax consequences thereof. The Company has urged the Purchaser to consult the Purchaser’s own tax adviser concerning any tax matters relating to this investment.
(i) The Note is being purchased hereunder for the Purchaser’s own account for investment. The Purchaser intends to hold the Note until the Maturity Date either itself or through an entity that is controlled by the Purchaser as permitted by Section 5.1 hereof, and the Purchaser is not purchasing such securities with a view toward distribution in a manner which would require registration under the Securities Act, and the Purchaser does not presently have any reasons to anticipate any change in its circumstances or other particular occasion or event which would cause the Purchaser to sell the Note (except as permitted by Section 5.1 hereof).
(j) The Purchaser acknowledges that it has been called to the Purchaser’s attention by those individuals with whom Purchaser has dealt in connection with the Purchaser’s investment in the Company that the Purchaser’s investment in the Company involves a high degree of risk.
| 6 |
(k) The Purchaser has not received or relied upon any representations or warranties from the Company other than those set forth herein.
4.2 Organization and Authority; Default. The Purchaser is authorized and otherwise duly qualified to purchase and hold the Note and to enter into this Agreement; to the Purchaser’s knowledge, the purchase of the Note will not result in a breach of or violation of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any indenture or other agreement or instrument by which it or its property is bound, or violate any applicable law, administrative regulation, or court decree. The Purchaser shall supply any additional written information that may be required by the Company.
5. AGREEMENTS OF THE COMPANY. The Company agrees with the Purchaser as follows:
5.1 Transfer of the Note. The Purchaser has advised the Company that the Purchaser requires additional time to consider various tax and legal structures to create an appropriate corporate vehicle to hold the Note (and, as the case may be, the Conversion Shares). Accordingly, the Purchaser may assign the Note to an entity that is controlled by the Purchaser, provided the Purchaser and such entity enter into an Assignment in the form attached as Exhibit C.
5.2 Initial Public Offering.
(a) The Company is currently discussing and negotiating with a lead underwriter for a firm commitment underwritten initial public offering of approximately $10,000,000 of the Company’s shares of common stock (the “Initial Public Offering”). The Company shall provide periodic updates to the Purchaser on the status of the Initial Public Offering.
(b) In the event that an underwriting agreement for the Initial Public Offering is executed by the Company on or before December 31, 2017 establishing a valuation of the Company, then the conversion price per share under the Note shall be equal to 66.67% of the gross price per share of Common Stock to be received by the Company (or otherwise calculable) in the Initial Public Offering.
(c) In the event that the Initial Public Offering is abandoned, or an underwriting agreement for the Initial Public Offering is not executed by the Company, on or before December 31, 2017, then the conversion price per share under the Note shall be determined promptly after such date and shall be equal to 66.67% of the fair market value per share of Common Stock as of December 31, 2017, determined by mutual agreement of the Company (acting by majority vote of its Board of Directors) and the Purchaser, or if they shall disagree with each other on such valuation, by a nationally-recognized investment bank, mutually selected by the Company (acting by majority vote of its Board of Directors) and the Purchaser (whose services will be promptly retained and whose fees and costs will be borne by the Company). In the event an underwriting agreement for the Initial Public Offering is executed by the Company establishing a valuation of the Company prior to the completion of the valuation report prepared by such investment bank, the conversion price per share under the Note shall be equal to 66.67% of the gross price per share of Common Stock to be received by the Company (or otherwise calculable) in the Initial Public Offering. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, in no event shall the Note be converted into such number of shares of Common Stock as would be in excess of 9.99% of the Company’s then total outstanding shares of Common Stock.
| 7 |
The date upon which the applicable conversion price under the Note is first determined (which shall not be on or before December 31, 2017, unless an underwriting agreement for the Initial Public Offering establishing a valuation of the Company is executed by the Company on or before such date), is referred to as the “Conversion Price Determination Date.” The Purchaser shall be entitled, following the Conversion Price Determination Date, to exchange the Note for an identical Note reflecting the exact Conversion Price.
(d) The Company hereby agrees that in the event the Company enters into a convertible loan transaction from the date hereof through the closing of the Initial Public Offering with any other investor whose subscription is equal to or less than that of the Purchaser, the Company shall offer the Purchaser the opportunity to obtain the same rights and benefits provided for in such other convertible loan transaction.
