ARTICLE IV

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF ECOP

 

Subject to the exceptions set forth in the ECOP Disclosure Letter (regardless of whether or not the ECOP Disclosure Letter is referenced below with respect to any particular representation or warranty), ECOP represents and warrants as follows to SUN and the Shareholders.

 

4.1 Organization, Standing and Power.

 

ECOP and each of its subsidiaries is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized and has full corporate power and authority and possesses all governmental franchises, licenses, permits, authorizations and approvals necessary to enable it to own, lease or otherwise hold its properties and assets and to conduct its businesses as presently conducted, other than such franchises, licenses, permits, authorizations and approvals the lack of which, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on ECOP, a material adverse effect on the ability of ECOP to perform its obligations under this Agreement or on the ability of ECOP to consummate the Transactions (a “ECOP Material Adverse Effect”). ECOP is duly qualified to do business in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business or its ownership or leasing of its properties makes such qualification necessary and where the failure to so qualify would reasonably be expected to have a ECOP Material Adverse Effect. ECOP has delivered to SUN true and complete copies of the ECOP Articles of Incorporation and the ECOP Bylaws, as amended through date of this Agreement.

 

4.2 Subsidiaries; Equity Interests. All the outstanding shares of capital stock or equity investments of each subsidiary have been validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable and are as of the date of this Agreement owned by ECOP, by another subsidiary of ECOP or by ECOP and another subsidiary of ECOP, free and clear of all Liens. Except for its interests in its subsidiaries, ECOP does not own, directly or indirectly, any capital stock, membership interest, partnership interest, joint venture interest or other equity interest in any person.

 

4.3 Capital Structure. The authorized capital stock of ECOP consists of 400,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value and 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. As of the June 30, 2014, 60,900,476 shares of ECOP’s common stock and one share of preferred stock are issued and outstanding. ECOP has approximately 10,000,000 shares reserved for issuance under its 2014 Stock Option Plan. All outstanding shares of the capital stock of ECOP are, and all such shares that may be issued prior to the date hereof will be when issued, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and not subject to or issued in violation of any purchase option, call option, right of first refusal, preemptive right, subscription right or any similar right under any provision of Nevada law, the ECOP Articles of Incorporation, the ECOP Bylaws or any Contract to which ECOP is a party or otherwise bound. There are not any bonds, debentures, notes or other indebtedness of ECOP having the right to vote (or convertible into, or exchangeable for, securities having the right to vote) on any matters on which holders of ECOP’s common stock may vote (“Voting ECOP Debt”). As of the date of this Agreement, there are not any options, warrants, rights, convertible or exchangeable securities, “phantom” stock rights, stock appreciation rights, stock-based performance units, commitments, Contracts, arrangements or undertakings of any kind to which ECOP is a party or by which it is bound (a) obligating ECOP to issue, deliver or sell, or cause to be issued, delivered or sold, additional shares of capital stock or other equity interests in, or any security convertible or exercisable for or exchangeable into any capital stock of or other equity interest in, ECOP or any Voting ECOP Debt, (b) obligating ECOP to issue, grant, extend or enter into any such option, warrant, call, right, security, commitment, Contract, arrangement or undertaking or (c) that give any person the right to receive any economic benefit or right similar to or derived from the economic benefits and rights occurring to holders of the capital stock of ECOP. As of the date of this Agreement, there are not any outstanding contractual obligations of ECOP to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any shares of capital stock of ECOP. The stockholder list provided to SUN is a current stockholder and such list accurately reflects all of the issued and outstanding shares of the ECOP’s common stock.

4.4 Authority; Execution and Delivery; Enforceability. The execution and delivery by ECOP of this Agreement and the consummation by ECOP of the Transactions have been duly authorized and approved by the Board of Directors of ECOP and the holders of a majority of its capital stock and no other corporate proceedings on the part of ECOP are necessary to authorize this Agreement and the Transactions. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of ECOP, enforceable against ECOP in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

4.5 No Conflicts; Consents. The execution and delivery by ECOP of this Agreement does not, and the consummation of Transactions and compliance with the terms hereof will not, contravene, conflict with or result in any violation of or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to loss of a material benefit under, or to increased, additional, accelerated or guaranteed rights or entitlements of any person under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of ECOP under, any provision of (i) the ECOP Articles of Incorporation or ECOP Bylaws, (ii) any material Contract to which ECOP is a party or by which any of its properties or assets is bound or (iii) subject to the filings and other matters referred to in Section 4.6(b), any material Order or material Law applicable to ECOP or its properties or assets, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, any such items that, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a ECOP Material Adverse Effect.

 

(b) No Consent of, or registration, declaration or filing with, or permit from, any Governmental Entity is required to be obtained or made by or with respect to ECOP in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions, other than filings under state “blue sky” laws, as may be required in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions.

 

4.6 Taxes. (a)ECOP has timely filed, or has caused to be timely filed on its behalf, all Tax Returns required to be filed by it, and all such Tax Returns are true, complete and accurate, except to the extent any failure to file, any delinquency in filing or any inaccuracies in any filed Tax Returns, individually or in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a ECOP Material Adverse Effect. All Taxes shown to be due on such Tax Returns, or otherwise owed, have been timely paid, except to the extent that any failure to pay, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a ECOP Material Adverse Effect.

 

(b) The ECOP Financial Statements (as defined in Section 4.14 below) reflect an adequate reserve for all Taxes payable by ECOP (in addition to any reserve for deferred Taxes to reflect timing differences between book and Tax items) for all Taxable periods and portions thereof through the date of such financial statements. No deficiency with respect to any Taxes has been proposed, asserted or assessed against ECOP, and no requests for waivers of the time to assess any such Taxes are pending, except to the extent any such deficiency or request for waiver, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a ECOP Material Adverse Effect.

 

-11-
 

 

(c) There are no Liens for Taxes (other than for current Taxes not yet due and payable) on the assets of ECOP. ECOP is not bound by any agreement with respect to Taxes.

 

4.7 Litigation.

Neither ECOP nor any subsidiary, nor any director or officer thereof (in his or her capacity as such), is or has been the subject of any Action involving a claim or violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty.

 

4.8 Compliance with Applicable Laws. ECOP is in compliance with all applicable Laws, including those relating to occupational health and safety, the environment, export controls, trade sanctions and embargoes, except for instances of noncompliance that, individually and in the aggregate, have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a ECOP Material Adverse Effect. ECOP has not received any written communication during the past two years from a Governmental Entity that alleges that ECOP is not in compliance in any material respect with any applicable Law. This Section 4.9 does not relate to matters with respect to Taxes, which are the subject of Section 4.6.

 

4.9 Contracts. There are no Contracts that are material to the business, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations or prospects of ECOP taken as a whole other than as set forth in the ECOP SEC Documents (as defined in Section 4.14 below). ECOP is not in violation of or in default under (nor does there exist any condition which upon the passage of time or the giving of notice would cause such a violation of or default under) any Contract to which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties or assets is bound, except for violations or defaults that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a ECOP Material Adverse Effect.

 

4.10 Title to Properties. ECOP has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all of its properties and assets used in the conduct of its businesses. All such assets and properties, other than assets and properties in which ECOP has leasehold interests, are free and clear of all Liens, except for Liens that, in the aggregate, do not and will not materially interfere with the ability of ECOP to conduct business as currently conducted. ECOP has complied in all material respects with the terms of all material leases to which it is a party and under which it is in occupancy, and all such leases are in full force and effect. ECOP enjoys peaceful and undisturbed possession under all such material leases.

 

4.11 Intellectual Property. ECOP does not own, nor is validly licensed nor otherwise has the right to use, any Intellectual Property Rights other than as set forth in the ECOP SEC Documents.

-24-
 

 

8.3 Termination.

 

(a) The Parties may terminate this Agreement as provided below:

 

(i) SUN, ECOP and a majority of the Shareholders may terminate this Agreement by mutual written consent at any time prior to the Closing;

(ii) ECOP may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to SUN and the Shareholders at any time prior to the Closing (A) in the event SUN or any Shareholder has breached any material representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement in any material respect, ECOP has notified SUN and/or the Shareholder of the breach, and the breach has continued without cure for a period of twenty days after the notice of breach; (B) if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before October 17, 2014 by reason of the failure of any condition precedent under Section 5.2 hereof (unless the failure results primarily from ECOP itself breaching any representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement); and

(iii) SUN may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to ECOP at any time prior to the Closing (A) in the event ECOP has breached any material representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement in any material respect, SUN has notified ECOP of the breach, and the breach has continued without cure for a period of twenty days after the notice of breach; (B) if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before October 17, 2014 by reason of the failure of any condition precedent under Section 5.1 hereof (unless the failure results primarily from SUN or any Shareholder breaching any representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement).

(b) If any Party terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.3(a) above, all rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder shall terminate without any liability of any Party to any other Party (except for any liability of any Party then in breach).

 

8.4 Payment of Expenses. Beginning on the date of execution hereof, the ECOP shall pay on behalf of SUN all of SUN’s normal operating expenses at commercially reasonable times and amounts, or as otherwise reasonably directed by management of SUN. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Sections 7.3(a)(i) and (ii) then any amounts paid by the Company on behalf of SUN pursuant hereto shall be deemed to be a breakup fee paid to SUN, and the Company shall have no right to recover or be reimbursed any amounts previously paid.

 

8.5 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Shareholders, ECOP and SUN will be entitled to specific performance under this Agreement. The Parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

 

8.6 Independent Nature of Shareholders’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Shareholder under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Shareholder, and no Shareholder shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Shareholder under this Agreement. The decision of each Shareholder to acquire the Shares pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Shareholder independently of any other Shareholder. Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Shareholder pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Shareholders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Shareholders are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated herein. Each Shareholder shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Shareholder to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. Each of SUN and ECOP acknowledges that each of the Shareholders has been provided with this same Agreement for the purpose of closing a transaction with multiple Shareholders and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Shareholder.

8.7 Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of ECOP and SUN acknowledges and agrees that the liability of a Shareholder arising directly or indirectly, under any Transaction Document of any and every nature whatsoever shall be satisfied solely out of the assets of such Shareholder, and that no trustee, officer, other investment vehicle or any other affiliate of such Shareholder or any investor, shareholder or holder of shares of beneficial interest of such Shareholder shall be personally liable for any liabilities of such Shareholder.

 

8.8 Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section, such reference shall be to a Section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”.

 

8.9 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions are fulfilled to the extent possible.

 

8.10 Counterparts; Facsimile Execution. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Parties. Facsimile execution and delivery of this Agreement is legal, valid and binding for all purposes.

 

8.11 Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, together with the Rescission Agreement (a) constitutes the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the Transactions and (b) are not intended to confer upon any person other than the Parties any rights or remedies except for the beneficiaries covered under the mutual general releases listed above and beneficiaries receiving the issuance of ECOP Stock as provided on Annex B.

 

8.12 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof, except to the extent the laws of California are mandatorily applicable to the Transactions.

 

8.13 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by any of the Parties without the prior written consent of each of the other Parties.

Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.
