Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Subject to as otherwise set forth herein, including Section 6.3, each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The failure or waiver of performance by any Purchaser does not excuse performance by any other Purchaser or by Issuer with respect to any other Purchaser. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement is between Issuer and a Purchaser, solely, and not between Issuer and the Purchasers collectively and not between and among the Purchasers. It is further understood that no fiduciary duty or expectation therewith shall arise under this Agreement or any other Note Document as among any of the Purchasers, the Holders or the Required Holders.

(h)            Brokers and Finders.

The Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and Issuer has taken no action designed to, or which is reasonably likely to, have the effect of, terminating the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act nor has Issuer received as of the Execution Date any notification that the SEC is contemplating terminating such registration. Upon conversion of the Notes, the Common Stock will be issued in compliance with all applicable rules of Nasdaq. The Common Stock is listed on Nasdaq, and Issuer has not received any notice of delisting other than as set forth on Schedule 2.1(l). The issuance and sale of the Notes and the issuance of the Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes are in compliance with all applicable Nasdaq rules and regulations.

(l)            No Restrictions or Registration Rights. Except as described in the Certificate of Incorporation, there are no restrictions upon the voting or transfer of, any equity securities of Issuer. Except for such rights that have been waived or as expressly set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, neither the offering or sale of the Notes as contemplated by this Agreement, or the issuance of Common Stock upon the conversion thereof as contemplated by the Notes gives rise to any rights for or relating to the registration of any Notes (or shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof as contemplated by the Notes) or other securities of Issuer. Issuer has not granted registration rights to any Person other than the Purchasers that would provide such Person priority over such Purchaser’s rights with respect to any piggyback registration.

(o)           Application of Takeover Protections; Rights Agreement. Issuer and the Board have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable Issuer’s issuance of the Securities and any Purchaser’s ownership of the Securities from the provisions of any control share acquisition, interested stockholder, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Certificate of Incorporation or the laws of the state of its incorporation which is or could become applicable to any Purchaser as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, Issuer’s issuance of the Securities and each Purchaser’s ownership of the Securities. Issuer does not have any stockholder rights plan or similar arrangement relating to accumulations of beneficial ownership of Common Stock or a change in control of Issuer.

For six years after the Closing, Issuer shall cause to be maintained in effect provisions in the Issuer’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws (or in such documents of any successor to the business of the Issuer) regarding indemnification of directors and officers and advancement of expenses that, solely to the extent affecting the D&O Indemnified Parties (in their capacity as such) are no less advantageous to the D&O Indemnified Parties than the corresponding provisions in the Issuer’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws as in effect on the Execution Date.

(b) Prior to the Closing, Issuer shall obtain and fully pay the premium for the non-cancellable “tail” insurance policies with respect to Issuer’s existing directors’ and officers’ insurance policies and Issuer’s existing fiduciary liability insurance policies (collectively, “D&O Insurance”), in each case for a claims reporting or discovery period of at least six (6) years from and after the Closing with respect to any claim related to any period of time at or prior to the Closing from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Issuer’s current insurance carrier with respect to D&O Insurance with benefits and levels of coverage that are no less favorable than the benefits and levels of coverage provided under the Issuer’s existing policies with respect to any actual or alleged error, misstatement, misleading statement, act, omission, neglect, breach of duty or any matter claimed against a director or officer of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries by reason of him or her serving in such capacity that existed or occurred at or prior to the Closing (including in connection with this Agreement or the transactions or actions contemplated hereby).

No Purchaser Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover special, indirect, exemplary, lost profits, speculative or punitive damages under this ‎Section 4.1; provided, however, that such limitation shall not prevent any Purchaser Indemnitee from recovering under this ‎Section 4.1 for any such damages to the extent that such damages (A) are in the form of diminution in value or are payable to a third party in connection with any Third-Party Claims or (B) (1) were reasonably foreseeable as of the Execution Date and (2) were proximately caused by the applicable breach giving rise to the applicable claim for indemnification hereunder.

Section 4.2 Indemnification by the Purchasers. Each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify Issuer, its Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Issuer Indemnitees”) from, all costs, losses, liabilities, damages, or expenses of any kind or nature, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations, litigation or inquiries), claims, demands, and causes of action, and, in connection therewith, promptly upon demand, pay or reimburse each of them for all costs, losses, liabilities, damages, or expenses of any kind or nature (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and all other reasonable expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such matter that may be incurred by them or asserted against or involve any of them), whether or not involving a Third-Party Claim, as a result of, arising out of, or in any way related to the breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants of such Purchaser contained herein; provided that such claim for indemnification relating to a breach of any representation or warranty is made prior to the expiration of the survival period of such representation, warranty or covenant as set forth in ‎Section 6.1; provided, further, that for purposes of determining when an indemnification claim has been made, the date upon which an Issuer Indemnitee shall have given notice (stating in reasonable detail the basis of the claim for indemnification) to such Purchaser shall constitute the date upon which such claim has been made; provided, further, that the aggregate liability of such Purchaser shall not be greater in amount than the Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser. No Issuer Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover special, indirect, exemplary, lost profits, speculative or punitive damages under this ‎Section 4.2; provided, however, that such limitation shall not prevent any Issuer Indemnitee from recovering under this ‎Section 4.2 for any such damages to the extent that such damages (A) are in the form of diminution in value or are payable to a third party in connection with any Third-Party Claims or (B) (1) were reasonably foreseeable as of the Execution Date and (2) were proximately caused by the applicable breach giving rise to the applicable claim for indemnification hereunder.

Section 4.3 Indemnification Procedure.

(a) A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a Third-Party Claim may be asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought; provided, however, that failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall not preclude the indemnified party from any indemnification which it may claim in accordance with this ‎Article IV, except as otherwise provided in ‎Section 4.1 and ‎Section 4.2.

(b) Promptly after any Issuer Indemnitee or Purchaser Indemnitee (hereinafter, the “Indemnified Party”) has received notice of any indemnifiable claim hereunder, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by a third person, which the Indemnified Party believes in good faith is an indemnifiable claim under this Agreement (each a “Third-Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall give the indemnitor hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) written notice of such Third-Party Claim, but failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability it may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. Such notice shall state the nature and the basis of such Third-Party Claim to the extent then known. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend and settle, at its own expense and by its own counsel who shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, any such matter as long as the Indemnifying Party pursues the same diligently and in good faith. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to defend or settle, it shall promptly, and in no event later than ten (10) days, notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in all commercially reasonable respects in the defense thereof and the settlement thereof. Such cooperation shall include, but shall not be limited to, furnishing the Indemnifying Party with any books, records and other information reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party and in the Indemnified Party’s possession or control. Such cooperation of the Indemnified Party shall be at the cost of the Indemnifying Party. After the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party of its intention to undertake to defend or settle any such asserted liability, and for so long as the Indemnifying Party diligently pursues such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any additional legal expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any defense or settlement of such asserted liability; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall be entitled (i) at its expense, to participate in the defense of such asserted liability and the negotiations of the settlement thereof and (ii) if (A) the Indemnifying Party has, within ten (10) business days of when the Indemnified Party provides written notice of a Third-Party Claim, failed (1) to assume the defense or employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party or (2) to notify the Indemnified Party of such assumption or (B) if the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and counsel to the Indemnified Party shall have concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party or if the interests of the Indemnified Party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select a separate counsel and to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any indemnified claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party, unless the settlement thereof imposes no liability or obligation on, and includes a complete release from liability of, and does not include any admission of wrongdoing or malfeasance by, the Indemnified Party. The remedies set forth in this Article IV are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies that may be available to a party at law or in equity or otherwise.

Section 4.4 Tax Matters. All indemnification payments made under this ‎Article IV shall be treated as adjustments to the relevant Purchaser’s Purchase Price for all Tax purposes except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

Issuer shall be obligated to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the approval of the Certificate of Incorporation Amendment as promptly as practicable after the conversion of the immediately convertible portion of the Notes issued to the Lead Investor and the Lead Investor shall vote all of its shares of Common Stock in favor of approving the Certificate of Incorporation Amendment. If, despite Issuer’s reasonable best efforts, the approval of the Certificate of Incorporation Amendment is not obtained on or prior to the Stockholder Meeting Deadline, Issuer shall cause an additional Stockholder Meeting to be held every ninety (90) days thereafter until such approval of the Certificate of Incorporation Amendment is obtained.

Section 5.2 Legend.

(a) The Purchasers agree that all certificates or other instruments representing the Notes and the Common Stock subject to this Agreement will bear a legend substantially to the following effect:

[NEITHER] THIS SECURITY [NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS SECURITY IS CONVERTIBLE] HAS [NOT] BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THIS SECURITY [AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS SECURITY] MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN “ACCREDITED INVESTOR” AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

(b) In the event that a Note or the Common Stock subject to this Agreement are uncertificated, Issuer shall give notice of such legend in accordance with applicable Law.

Section 5.3 Tax Matters.

(a) Subject to the following sentence in this Section 5.3(a), Issuer (and any paying agent of Issuer) may deduct and withhold any withholding Taxes or other amounts required to be withheld with respect to the Notes (as determined in the good faith discretion of Issuer) and may set off any such amounts required to be withheld against payments (whether made in cash or other property) on the Notes; provided, that Issuer shall (i) provide written notice to any Purchaser of any such deduction or withholding with respect to such Purchaser reasonably in advance thereof and (ii) cooperate with each Purchaser in good faith to minimize, to the extent permissible under then applicable Law, the amount of any such deduction or withholding.

(b) Each Purchaser shall provide Issuer with a valid and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, Form W-8BEN. W8-BEN-E or, in the case of a Purchaser that is not a beneficial owner, Form W-8IMY (accompanied by applicable certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable), as appropriate. In addition, any Purchaser that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made with respect to the Notes shall deliver to Issuer, at the time or times reasonably requested by Issuer, such properly completed and executed documentation that is not described in the preceding sentence that is reasonably requested by Issuer, as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Moreover, any Purchaser, if reasonably requested by Issuer, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by Issuer as will enable Issuer to determine whether or not such Purchaser is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements and whether such Purchaser has complied with its obligations under FATCA. Each Purchaser agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Issuer in writing of its legal inability to do so.

Section 5.4 Removal of Legend.

(a) Issuer, at its sole cost and expense, shall remove the legend described in Section 5.2 (or instruct its transfer agent to so remove such legend) from the book-entry account evidencing the Securities if (i) such Securities are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, (ii) such Securities are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 (if the transferor is not an Affiliate of Issuer), or (iii) such Securities are eligible for sale under Rule 144, without the requirement for Issuer to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) as to such securities and without volume or manner of sale restrictions.

(b) In connection with a sale of the Securities by a Purchaser in reliance on Rule 144, the applicable Purchaser or its broker shall deliver to the transfer agent and Issuer a broker customary representation letter providing to the transfer agent and Issuer any information necessary to determine that the sale of the Securities is made in compliance with Rule 144, including, as may be appropriate, a certification that such Purchaser is not an Affiliate of Issuer and regarding the length of time the Securities have been held. Upon receipt of such representation letter, Issuer shall promptly direct its transfer agent to remove the legend referred to in Section 5.2 from the appropriate book-entry accounts maintained by the transfer agent, and Issuer shall bear all direct costs and expenses associated therewith. After any Purchaser or its permitted assigns have held the Securities for such time as non-Affiliates are permitted to sell without volume limitations under Rule 144, if the book-entry account for such Securities still bears the restrictive legend referred to in Section 5.2, Issuer agrees, upon request of any Purchaser or its permitted assignees, to take all steps necessary to promptly effect the removal of the legend described in Section 5.2 from the Securities, and Issuer shall bear all direct costs and expenses associated therewith, regardless of whether the request is made in connection with a sale or otherwise, so long as such Purchaser or its permitted assigns provide to Issuer any information Issuer deems reasonably necessary to determine that the legend is no longer required under the Securities Act or applicable state laws, including a certification that the holder is not an Affiliate of Issuer (and a covenant to inform Issuer if it should thereafter become an Affiliate and to consent to the notation of an appropriate restrictive legend) and regarding the length of time the Securities have been held. Issuer shall cooperate with each Purchaser to effect the removal of the legend referred to in Section 5.2 at any time such legend is no longer appropriate.

The Collateral Agent shall not have, by reason hereof or pursuant to any Security Documents, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Purchaser. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees and agents shall have any liability to any Purchaser for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection hereof or the Security Documents except to the extent caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, and each Purchaser agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Agent and all of its officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the “Collateral Agent Indemnitees”) from and against any losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) incurred by such Collateral Agent Indemnitee, whether direct, indirect or consequential, arising from or in connection with the performance by such Collateral Agent Indemnitee of the duties and obligations of Collateral Agent pursuant hereto or any of the Security Documents.

(b) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.

(c) The Collateral Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder and under the Notes and the Security Documents at any time by giving at least ten (10) business days prior written notice to Issuer and each holder of the Notes. Such resignation shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Collateral Agent of appointment as provided below. Upon any such notice of resignation, the Required Holders shall appoint a successor Collateral Agent. Upon the acceptance of the appointment as Collateral Agent, such successor Collateral Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the Collateral Agreement.
