Agent Agreement with J.P. Turner & Company,
LLC
|
Dear Mr.
Mir:
This
letter (the “Agreement”) is to set forth the terms and
conditions pursuant to which J.P. Turner & Company, L.L.C. (the “Agent”) shall, except as expressly noted to
the contrary herein, serve as, exclusive placement agent and financial advisor
in connection with the best efforts sale (the “Offering”) of new securities of SensiVida
Medical Technologies, Inc. (together with its affiliates and subsidiaries, the
“Company”), for purposes of execution of the
business plan, pursuant to all transaction documents that memorialize the
Offering to be offered only to accredited investors (the “PPM”).
The Offering will be on a reasonable best efforts basis and the
securities to be sold in Offering are expected to be convertible preferred stock
and warrants to purchase common shares (the “Securities”); however, the Company and Agent
(collectively, the “Parties”) can elect to offer different
securities. The gross proceeds to be received by the Company from the placement
of the Securities are estimated to be between $8,000,000 and $10,000,000 or any
another amount that is mutually agreed upon by the Parties.
The
Agent’s role will include: (a) identifying and offering the Securities to
purchasers who are “accredited investors” or “qualified institutional buyers”
(“Investor(s)”) under and as defined in the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”) (b) attempting, on a “best efforts”
basis to secure acceptable commitments from Investors to purchase the Securities
(c) coordinating the closing of sales of the Securities with Investors and the
Company, and (d) assembling co-placement agents and/or syndicate selling agents
who are FINRA members as the Agent deems appropriate (collectively, the “Services”). If the Company has a Closing (as
defined in Section 2.3), irrespective of the amount of such Closing, the Company
shall grant to Agent a 12 month exclusive first-right-of –refusal thereafter
(the “Success
Period”) to sell any new securities (debt,
equity, or combination of both), from the time of the final Closing of the
Offering and in accordance with Section 2.6. For the avoidance of doubt,
issuance of debt without equity features (equity features include, but may not
be limited to: conversion rights, warrants or capital stock) shall not be deemed
the sale of new securities.

the date of each Closing and delivered to the Agent simultaneously with the
delivery of the funds to the Company. The Company shall be under no obligation
to consummate the Offering, except upon such terms as shall be acceptable to the

Closing.

Offering; (ii) Agent has not made any representations to the Company to induce
it to execute this Agreement other than those expressly and directly made
herein; (iii) the Company has performed its own due diligence investigation and
had the opportunity to ask questions of the Agent, Agent Investors and their
respective management teams and analyze their responses; and (iv) the Company
has not relied on any information, representations or warranties of any
individual or entity, including without limitation the Agent, in connection with
the Offering but for those made directly, personally and expressly by the Agent
Investors in the definitive transaction documents memorializing the
