The Shares and Warrants being registered are being offered and sold pursuant to a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) among the Company and certain investors, which the Company has filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Form 8-K.
We have examined the originals or certified, conformed or reproduction copies of all such records, documents and instruments as we have deemed necessary as the basis for the opinion expressed herein. As to various questions of fact relevant to the opinion hereafter expressed, we have relied upon certificates of public officials and statements or certificates of officers or representatives of the Company and others.
