an exemption from such registration, which opinion shall be accepted by the
Company, (c) the Securities are sold or transferred to an “affiliate” (as
defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act (or a successor rule)

and scope customary for opinions of counsel in corporate transactions, which
opinion shall be accepted by the Company; (ii) any sale of such Securities
made
in reliance on Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of said
Rule and further, if said Rule is not applicable, any re-sale of such Securities
under circumstances in which the seller (or the person through whom the sale
is
made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the 0000
Xxx) may require compliance with some other exemption under the 1933 Act or
the
rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and (iii) neither the Company
nor
any other person is under any obligation to register such Securities under
the
1933 Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions
of any exemption thereunder (in each case, other than pursuant to the
Registration Rights Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing or
anything else contained herein to the contrary, the Securities may be pledged
as
collateral in connection with a bonafide margin account or other
lending arrangement. In the event that the Company does not accept
the opinion of counsel provided by the Buyer with respect to the transfer of
Securities pursuant to an exemption from registration, such as Rule 144 or
Regulation S, within three (3) business days of delivery of the opinion to
the
Company, the Company shall pay to the Buyer liquidated damages of three percent
(3%) of the outstanding amount of the Notes per month plus accrued and unpaid
interest on the Notes, prorated for partial months, in cash or shares at the
option of the Company (“Standard Liquidated Damages

of
securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, the
Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares may bear a restrictive legend in
substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed
against transfer of the certificates for such Securities):
“The
securities represented by this certificate have not been registered
under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The securities may not
be sold, transferred or assigned in the absence of an effective
registration statement for the securities under said Act, or an opinion
of
counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel
in
comparable transactions, that registration is not required under said
Act
or unless sold pursuant to Rule 144 or Regulation S under said
Act.”
|
The
legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue a
certificate without such legend to the holder of any Security upon which it
is
stamped, if, unless otherwise required by applicable state securities laws,
(a)
such Security is registered for sale under an effective registration statement
filed under the 1933 Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or
Regulation S without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a
particular date that can then be immediately sold, or (b) such holder provides
the Company with an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary
for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public
sale or transfer of such Security may be made without registration under the
1933 Act, which opinion shall be accepted by the Company so that the sale or
transfer is effected or (c) such holder provides the Company with reasonable
assurances that such Security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or Regulation
S. The Buyer agrees to sell all Securities, including those
represented by a certificate(s) from which the legend has been removed, in

of
the Warrants. The Company further acknowledges that its obligation to
issue Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares upon conversion of the Notes or
exercise of the Warrants in accordance with this Agreement, the Notes and the

of
the Articles of Incorporation or By-laws or (ii) violate or conflict with,
or
result in a breach of any provision of, or constitute a default (or an event
which with notice or lapse of time or both could become a default) under, or
give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or
cancellation of, any agreement, indenture, patent, patent license or instrument
to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, or
(iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order,
judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations

or
by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is
bound or affected (except for such conflicts, defaults, terminations,
amendments, accelerations, cancellations and violations as would not,
individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse
Effect). Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in
violation of its Articles of Incorporation, By-laws or other organizational
documents and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default
(and
no event has occurred which with notice or lapse of time or both could put
the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries in default) under, and neither the Company
nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken any action or failed to take any action
that would give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration
or
cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company
or
any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which any property or assets of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or affected, except for possible
defaults as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse
Effect. The businesses of the Company and its Subsidiaries, if any, are not
being conducted, and shall not be conducted so long as a Buyer owns any of
the
Securities, in violation of any law, ordinance or regulation of any governmental
entity. Except as specifically contemplated by this Agreement and as
required under the 1933 Act and any applicable state securities laws, the
Company is not required to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or
make any filing or registration with, any court, governmental agency, regulatory
agency, self regulatory organization or stock market or any third party in
order
for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under this
Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Notes or the Warrants in
accordance with the terms hereof or thereof or to issue and sell the Notes
and
Warrants in accordance with the terms hereof and to issue the Conversion Shares
upon conversion of the Notes and the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the

is
required to obtain pursuant to the preceding sentence have been obtained or
effected on or prior to the date hereof. The Company is not in
violation of the listing requirements of the Pink Sheets (the “Pink
Sheets”) and does not reasonably anticipate that the Common Stock will
be delisted by the Pink Sheets in the foreseeable future. The Company
and its Subsidiaries are unaware of any facts or circumstances which might
give
rise to any of the foregoing.
6
g. SEC
Documents; Financial Statements. Except as disclosed in
Schedule 3(g), the Company has timely filed all reports,
schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it
with
the SEC pursuant to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act
of
1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”) (all of the foregoing filed
prior to the date hereof and all exhibits included therein and financial
statements and schedules thereto and documents (other than exhibits to such
documents) incorporated by reference therein, being hereinafter referred to
herein as the “SEC Documents”). The Company has
delivered to each Buyer true and complete copies of the SEC Documents, except
for such exhibits and incorporated documents. As of their respective
dates, the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements
of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder
applicable to the SEC Documents, and none of the SEC Documents, at the time
they
were filed with the SEC, contained any untrue statement of a material fact
or
omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
in
order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading. None of the statements made in any
such SEC Documents is, or has been, required to be amended or updated under
applicable law (except for such statements as have been amended or updated
in
subsequent filings prior the date hereof). As of their respective
dates, the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents
complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting
requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect
thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with United States generally accepted accounting principles, consistently
applied, during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated
in such financial statements or the notes thereto, or (ii) in the case of
unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may not include footnotes
or
may be condensed or summary statements) and fairly present in all material
respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its consolidated
Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the consolidated results of their
operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case
of
unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments). Except
as set forth in the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC
Documents, the Company has no liabilities, contingent or otherwise, other than
(i) liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business subsequent to
December 31, 2004 and (ii) obligations under contracts and commitments incurred
in the ordinary course of business and not required under generally accepted
accounting principles to be reflected in such financial statements, which,
individually or in the aggregate, are not material to the financial condition
or
operating results of the Company.
7
h. Absence
of Certain Changes. Since December 31, 2004, there has
been no material adverse change and no material adverse development in the
assets, liabilities, business, properties, operations, financial condition,
results of operations or prospects of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries.
i. Absence
of Litigation. There is no action, suit, claim,
proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board,
government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the
knowledge of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, threatened against or
affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or their officers or directors
in their capacity as such, that could have a Material Adverse
Effect. Schedule 3(i) contains a complete list and
summary description of any pending or threatened proceeding against or affecting
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, without regard to whether it would
have
a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and its Subsidiaries are
unaware of any facts or circumstances which might give rise to any of the
foregoing.

Copyrights, etc. The Company and each of its
Subsidiaries owns or possesses the requisite licenses or rights to use all

secrets, trademarks, trademark applications, service marks, service names,
trade
names and copyrights (“Intellectual Property”) necessary to
enable it to conduct its business as now operated (and, except as set forth
in
Schedule 3(j) hereof, to the best of the Company’s knowledge,
as presently contemplated to be operated in the future); there is no claim
or
action by any person pertaining to, or proceeding pending, or to the Company’s
knowledge threatened, which challenges the right of the Company or of a
Subsidiary with respect to any Intellectual Property necessary to enable it
to
conduct its business as now operated (and, except as set forth in
Schedule 3(j) hereof, to the best of the Company’s knowledge,
as presently contemplated to be operated in the future); to the best of the
Company’s knowledge, the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ current and intended
products, services and processes do not infringe on any Intellectual Property
or
other rights held by any person; and the Company is unaware of any facts or
circumstances which might give rise to any of the foregoing. The
Company and each of its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security measures
to
protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of their Intellectual
Property.
8
k. No
Materially Adverse Contracts, Etc. Neither the Company
nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to any charter, corporate or other legal
restriction, or any judgment, decree, order, rule or regulation which in the
judgment of the Company’s officers has or is expected in the future to have a
Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries is a party to any contract or agreement which in the judgment
of
the Company’s officers has or is expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.
l. Tax
Status. Except as set forth on Schedule
3(l), the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has made or filed all
federal, state and foreign income and all other tax returns, reports and
declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject (unless and
only to the extent that the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has set aside
on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all unpaid and
unreported taxes) and has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments
and
charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such
returns, reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith
and has set aside on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment
of
all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports
or declarations apply. There are no unpaid taxes in any material
amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the
officers of the Company know of no basis for any such claim. The
Company has not executed a waiver with respect to the statute of limitations
relating to the assessment or collection of any foreign, federal, state or
local
tax. Except as set forth on Schedule 3(l), none of
the Company’s tax returns is presently being audited by any taxing
authority.
m. Certain
Transactions. Except as set forth on Schedule
3(m) and except for arm’s length transactions pursuant to which the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes payments in the ordinary course of
business upon terms no less favorable than the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries could obtain from third parties and other than the grant of stock
options disclosed on Schedule 3(c), none of the officers,
directors, or employees of the Company is presently a party to any transaction
with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than for services as

officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest or is an
officer, director, trustee or partner.

is
true and correct in all material respects and the Company has not omitted to
state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made herein

misleading. No event or circumstance has occurred or exists with
respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or its or their business,
properties, prospects, operations or financial conditions, which, under
applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure or announcement

capacity) with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby and any statement made by any Buyer or any of their respective
representatives or agents in connection with this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby is not advice or a recommendation and is merely incidental
to the Buyers’ purchase of the Securities. The Company further
represents to each Buyer that the Company’s decision to enter into this
Agreement has been based solely on the independent evaluation of the Company
and
its representatives.
p. No
Integrated Offering. Neither the Company, nor any of its
affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has directly or
indirectly made any offers or sales in any security or solicited any offers
to
buy any security under circumstances that would require registration under
the
1933 Act of the issuance of the Securities to the Buyers. The
issuance of the Securities to the Buyers will not be integrated with any other
issuance of the Company’s securities (past, current or future) for purposes of
any shareholder approval provisions applicable to the Company or its
securities.
q. No
Brokers. The Company has taken no action which would
give rise to any claim by any person for brokerage commissions, transaction
fees

hereby.

in possession of all franchises, grants, authorizations, licenses, permits,
easements, variances, exemptions, consents, certificates, approvals and orders
necessary to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business
as it is now being conducted (collectively, the “Company
Permits”), and there is no action pending or, to the knowledge of the
Company, threatened regarding suspension or cancellation of any of the Company
Permits. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in
conflict with, or in default or violation of, any of the Company Permits, except
for any such conflicts, defaults or violations which, individually or in the
aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. Since December 31, 2004, neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries has received any notification with respect to possible conflicts,
defaults or violations of applicable laws, except for notices relating to
possible conflicts, defaults or violations, which conflicts, defaults or
violations would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
10
s. Environmental
Matters.
(i) Except
as
set forth in Schedule 3(s), there are, to the Company’s
knowledge, with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any
predecessor of the Company, no past or present violations of Environmental
Laws
(as defined below), releases of any material into the environment, actions,
activities, circumstances, conditions, events, incidents, or contractual
obligations which may give rise to any common law environmental liability or
any
liability under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and
Liability Act of 1980 or similar federal, state, local or foreign laws and
neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice with
respect to any of the foregoing, nor is any action pending or, to the Company’s
knowledge, threatened in connection with any of the foregoing. The
term “Environmental Laws” means all federal, state, local or
foreign laws relating to pollution or protection of human health or the
environment (including, without limitation, ambient air, surface water,
groundwater, land surface or subsurface strata), including, without limitation,
laws relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases of
chemicals, pollutants contaminants, or toxic or hazardous substances or wastes
(collectively, “Hazardous Materials”) into the environment, or
otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment,
storage, disposal, transport or handling of Hazardous Materials, as well as
all
authorizations, codes, decrees, demands or demand letters, injunctions,
judgments, licenses, notices or notice letters, orders, permits, plans or
regulations issued, entered, promulgated or approved thereunder.
(ii) Other
than those that are or were stored, used or disposed of in compliance with
applicable law, no Hazardous Materials are contained on or about any real
property currently owned, leased or used by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, and no Hazardous Materials were released on or about any real
property previously owned, leased or used by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries during the period the property was owned, leased or used by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except in the normal course of the Company’s
or any of its Subsidiaries’ business.
(iii) Except
as
set forth in Schedule 3(s), there are no underground storage
tanks on or under any real property owned, leased or used by the Company or
any
of its Subsidiaries that are not in compliance with applicable law.
t. Title
to Property. The Company and its Subsidiaries have good
and marketable title in fee simple to all real property and good and marketable
title to all personal property owned by them which is material to the business
of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all liens,
encumbrances and defects except such as are described in Schedule
3(t) or such as would not have a Material Adverse
Effect. Any real property and facilities held under lease by the
Company and its Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and
enforceable leases with such exceptions as would not have a Material Adverse
Effect.
11
u. Insurance. Except
as set forth in Schedule 3(u), the Company and each of its
Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility
against such losses and risks and in such amounts as management of the Company
believes to be prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company
and
its Subsidiaries are engaged. Neither the Company nor any such
Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its
existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain
similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its
business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse Effect. The
Company has provided to Buyer true and correct copies of all policies relating
to directors’ and officers’ liability coverage, errors and omissions coverage,
and commercial general liability coverage.
v. Internal
Accounting Controls. The Company and each of its
Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient,
in
the judgment of the Company’s board of directors, to provide reasonable
assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s
general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary
to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability, (iii)
access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or
specific authorization and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is
compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action
is taken with respect to any differences.
w. Foreign
Corrupt Practices. Neither the Company, nor any of its
Subsidiaries, nor any director, officer, agent, employee or other person acting
on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary has, in the course of his actions
for, or on behalf of, the Company, used any corporate funds for any unlawful
contribution, gift, entertainment or other unlawful expenses relating to
political activity; made any direct or indirect unlawful payment to any foreign
or domestic government official or employee from corporate funds; violated
or is
in violation of any provision of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of
1977,
as amended, or made any bribe, rebate, payoff, influence payment, kickback
or
other unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic government official or
employee.
x. Solvency. The
Company (after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement)
is solvent (i.e., its assets have a fair market value in excess of the
amount required to pay its probable liabilities on its existing debts as they
become absolute and matured) and currently the Company has no information that
would lead it to reasonably conclude that the Company would not, after giving
effect to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, have the ability
to,
nor does it intend to take any action that would impair its ability to, pay
its
debts from time to time incurred in connection therewith as such debts
mature. The Company did not receive a qualified opinion from its
auditors with respect to its most recent fiscal year end and, after giving
effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, does not anticipate
or know of any basis upon which its auditors might issue a qualified opinion
in
respect of its current fiscal year.
y. No
Investment Company. The Company is not, and upon the
issuance and sale of the Securities as contemplated by this Agreement will
not
be an “investment company” required to be registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 (an “Investment Company”). The
Company is not controlled by an Investment Company.
12
z. Breach
of Representations and Warranties by the Company. If the
Company breaches any of the representations or warranties set forth in this
Section 3, and in addition to any other remedies available to the Buyers
pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall pay to the Buyer the Standard
Liquidated Damages Amount in cash or in shares of Common Stock at the option
of
the Company, until such breach is cured. If the Company elects to pay
the Standard Liquidated Damages Amounts in shares of Common Stock, such shares
shall be issued at the Conversion Price at the time of payment.
4. COVENANTS.
a. Best
Efforts. The parties shall use their best efforts to
satisfy timely each of the conditions described in Section 6 and 7 of this
Agreement.
b. Form
D; Blue Sky Laws. The Company agrees to file a Form D
with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and to provide
a
copy thereof to each Buyer promptly after such filing. The Company
shall, on or before the Closing Date, take such action as the Company shall
reasonably determine is necessary to qualify the Securities for sale to the
Buyers at the applicable closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable
securities or “blue sky” laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain
an exemption from such qualification), and shall provide evidence of any such
action so taken to each Buyer on or prior to the Closing Date.
c. Reporting
Status; Eligibility to Use Form S-3, SB-2 or Form
S-1. The
Company’s Common Stock is registered under Section 12(g) of the 1934 Act. The
Company represents and warrants that it meets the requirements for the use
of
Form S-3 (or if the Company is not eligible for the use of Form S-3 as of the
Filing Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), the Company
may
use the form of registration for which it is eligible at that time)
for registration of the sale by the Buyer of the Registrable Securities (as
defined in the Registration Rights Agreement). So long as the Buyer
beneficially owns any of the Securities, the Company shall timely file all
reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the 1934 Act, and the
Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports
under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder
would permit such termination. The Company further agrees to file all
reports required to be filed by the Company with the SEC in a timely manner
so
as to become eligible, and thereafter to maintain its eligibility, for the
use
of Form S-3. The Company shall issue a press release describing the
materials terms of the transaction contemplated hereby as soon as practicable
following the Closing Date but in no event more than two (2) business days
of
the Closing Date, which press release shall be subject to prior review by the
Buyers. The Company agrees that such press release shall not disclose
the name of the Buyers unless expressly consented to in writing by the Buyers
or
unless required by applicable law or regulation, and then only to the extent
of
such requirement.
d. Use
of Proceeds. The Company shall use the proceeds from the
sale of the Notes and the Warrants in the manner set forth in Schedule
4(d) attached hereto and made a part hereof and shall not,
directly or indirectly, use such proceeds for any loan to or investment in
any
other corporation, partnership, enterprise or other person (except in connection
with its currently existing direct or indirect Subsidiaries)
13
e. Future
Offerings. Subject to the exceptions described below,
the Company will not, without the prior written consent of a
majority-in-interest of the Buyers, not to be unreasonably withheld, negotiate
or contract with any party to obtain additional equity financing (including
debt
financing with an equity component) that involves (A) the issuance of Common
Stock at a discount to the market price of the Common Stock on the date of
issuance (taking into account the value of any warrants or options to acquire
Common Stock issued in connection therewith) or (B) the issuance of convertible
securities that are convertible into an indeterminate number of shares of Common
Stock or (C) the issuance of warrants during the period (the “Lock-up
Period”) beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the later of (i)
two hundred seventy (270) days from the Closing Date and (ii) one hundred eighty
(180) days from the date the Registration Statement (as defined in the
Registration Rights Agreement) is declared effective (plus any days in which
sales cannot be made thereunder). In addition, subject to the
exceptions described below, the Company will not conduct any equity financing
(including debt with an equity component) (“Future Offerings”)
during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending two (2) years after
the end of the Lock-up Period unless it shall have first delivered to each
Buyer, at least twenty (20) business days prior to the closing of such Future
Offering, written notice describing the proposed Future Offering, including
the
terms and conditions thereof and proposed definitive documentation to be entered
into in connection therewith, and providing each Buyer an option during the
fifteen (15) day period following delivery of such notice to purchase its pro
rata share (based on the ratio that the aggregate principal amount of Notes
purchased by it hereunder bears to the aggregate principal amount of Notes
purchased hereunder) of the securities being offered in the Future Offering
on
the same terms as contemplated by such Future Offering (the limitations referred
to in this sentence and the preceding sentence are collectively referred to
as
the “Capital Raising Limitations”). In
the event the terms and conditions of a proposed Future Offering are amended
in
any respect after delivery of the notice to the Buyers concerning the proposed
Future Offering, the Company shall deliver a new notice to each Buyer describing
the amended terms and conditions of the proposed Future Offering and each Buyer
thereafter shall have an option during the fifteen (15) day period following
delivery of such new notice to purchase its pro rata share of the securities
being offered on the same terms as contemplated by such proposed Future
Offering, as amended. The foregoing sentence shall apply to
successive amendments to the terms and conditions of any proposed Future
Offering. The Capital Raising Limitations shall not apply to any
transaction involving (i) issuances of securities in a firm commitment
underwritten public offering (excluding a continuous offering pursuant to Rule
415 under the 0000 Xxx) or (ii) issuances of securities as consideration for
a
merger, consolidation or purchase of assets, or in connection with any strategic
partnership or joint venture (the primary purpose of which is not to raise
equity capital), or in connection with the disposition or acquisition of a
business, product or license by the Company. The Capital Raising
Limitations also shall not apply to the issuance of securities upon exercise
or
conversion of the Company’s options, warrants or other convertible securities
outstanding as of the date hereof or to the grant of additional options or
warrants, or the issuance of additional securities, under any Company stock
option or restricted stock plan approved by the shareholders of the
Company.
f. Expenses. At
the Closing, the Company shall reimburse Buyers for expenses incurred by them
in
connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement and the other agreements to be executed in
connection herewith (“Documents”), including, without limitation, attorneys’ and
consultants’ fees and expenses, transfer agent fees, fees for stock quotation
services, fees relating to any amendments or modifications of the Documents
or
any consents or waivers of provisions in the Documents, fees for the preparation
of opinions of counsel, escrow fees, and costs of restructuring the transactions
contemplated by the Documents. When possible, the Company must pay
these fees directly, otherwise the Company must make immediate payment for
reimbursement to the Buyers for all fees and expenses immediately upon written
notice by the Buyer or the submission of an invoice by the Buyer If
the Company fails to reimburse the Buyer in full within three (3) business
days
of the written notice or submission of invoice by the Buyer, the Company shall
pay interest on the total amount of fees to be reimbursed at a rate of 15%
per
annum.
14
g. Financial
Information. The Company agrees to send the following
reports to each Buyer until such Buyer transfers, assigns, or sells all of
the
Securities: (i) within ten (10) days after the filing with the SEC, a copy
of its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-QSB and
any
Current Reports on Form 8-K; (ii) within one (1) day after release, copies
of all press releases issued by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; and
(iii) contemporaneously with the making available or giving to the
stockholders of the Company, copies of any notices or other information the
Company makes available or gives to such stockholders.
h. Authorization
and Reservation of Shares. Subject to Stockholder
Approval (as such term is defined in Section 4(n) of this Agreement),the Company
shall at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance,
a
sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the full conversion
or exercise of the outstanding Notes and Warrants and issuance of the Conversion
Shares and Warrant Shares in connection therewith (based on the Conversion
Price
of the Notes or Exercise Price (as defined in the Warrants) of the Warrants
in
effect from time to time) and as otherwise required by the Notes. The
Company shall not reduce the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for
issuance upon conversion of Notes and exercise of the Warrants without the
consent of each Buyer. The Company shall at all times maintain the
number of shares of Common Stock so reserved for issuance at an amount
(“Reserved Amount”) equal to no less than two (2) times the
number that is then actually issuable upon full conversion of the Notes and
Additional Notes and upon exercise of the Warrants and the Additional Warrants
(based on the Conversion Price of the Notes or the Exercise Price of the
Warrants in effect from time to time). If at any time the number of
shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance (“Authorized
and Reserved Shares”) is below the Reserved Amount, the Company will
promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a
sufficient number of shares, including, without limitation, calling a special
meeting of stockholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company’s
obligations under this Section 4(h), in the case of an insufficient number
of
authorized shares, obtain stockholder approval of an increase in such authorized
number of shares, and voting the management shares of the Company in favor
of an
increase in the authorized shares of the Company to ensure that the number
of
authorized shares is sufficient to meet the Reserved Amount. If the
Company fails to obtain such stockholder approval within thirty (30) days
following the date on which the number of Reserved Amount exceeds the Authorized
and Reserved Shares, the Company shall pay to the Borrower the Standard
Liquidated Damages Amount, in cash or in shares of Common Stock at the option
of
the Buyer. If the Buyer elects to be paid the Standard Liquidated
Damages Amount in shares of Common Stock, such shares shall be issued at the
Conversion Price at the time of payment. In order to ensure that the
Company has authorized a sufficient amount of shares to meet the Reserved Amount
at all times, the Company must deliver to the Buyer at the end of every month
a
list detailing (1) the current amount of shares authorized by the Company and
reserved for the Buyer; and (2) amount of shares issuable upon conversion of
the
Notes and upon exercise of the Warrants and as payment of interest accrued
on
the Notes for one year. If the Company fails to provide such list
within five (5) business days of the end of each month, the Company shall pay
the Standard Liquidated Damages Amount, in cash or in shares of Common Stock
at
the option of the Buyer, until the list is delivered. If the Buyer
elects to be paid the Standard Liquidated Damages Amount in shares of Common
Stock, such shares shall be issued at the Conversion Price at the time of
payment.
15
i. Listing. The
Company shall promptly secure the listing of the Conversion Shares and Warrant
Shares upon each national securities exchange or automated quotation system,
if
any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed (subject to official
notice of issuance) and, so long as any Buyer owns any of the Securities, shall
maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such
listing of all Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares from time to time issuable
upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants. The Company
will obtain and, so long as any Buyer owns any of the Securities, maintain
the
listing and trading of its Common Stock on the Pink Sheets, the Over-the-Counter
Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) or any equivalent replacement
exchange, the Nasdaq National Market (“Nasdaq”), the Nasdaq
SmallCap Market (“Nasdaq SmallCap”), the New York Stock
Exchange (“NYSE”), or the American Stock Exchange
(“AMEX”) and will comply in all respects with the Company’s
reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the
National Association of Securities Dealers (“NASD”) and such
exchanges, as applicable. The Company shall promptly provide to each
Buyer copies of any notices it receives from the Pink Sheets and any other
exchanges or quotation systems on which the Common Stock is then listed
regarding the continued eligibility of the Common Stock for listing on such
exchanges and quotation systems.
j. Corporate
Existence. So long as a Buyer beneficially owns any
Notes or Warrants, the Company shall maintain its corporate existence and shall
not sell all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, except in the event
of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the
Company’s assets, where the surviving or successor entity in such transaction
(i) assumes the Company’s obligations hereunder and under the agreements and
instruments entered into in connection herewith and (ii) is a publicly traded
corporation whose Common Stock is listed for trading on the OTCBB, Nasdaq,
Nasdaq SmallCap, NYSE, AMEX or Pink Sheets.
k. No
Integration. The Company shall not make any offers or
sales of any security (other than the Securities) under circumstances that
would
require registration of the Securities being offered or sold hereunder under
the
1933 Act or cause the offering of the Securities to be integrated with any
other
offering of securities by the Company for the purpose of any stockholder
approval provision applicable to the Company or its securities.
16
l. Key
Man Insurance. The Company shall use
its best efforts to obtain, on or before five (5) business days from the date
hereof, key man life insurance on all of the Company’s officers and division
heads.
m. Breach
of Covenants. If the Company breaches
any of the covenants set forth in this Section 4, and in addition to any other
remedies available to the Buyers pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall
pay to the Buyers the Standard Liquidated Damages Amount, in cash or in shares
of Common Stock at the option of the Company, until such breach is
cured. If the Company elects to pay the Standard Liquidated Damages
Amount in shares, such shares shall be issued at the Conversion Price at the
time of payment.
n. Stockholder
Approval. The Company shall file a proxy or information
statement with the SEC no later than ________, 2007 and use its best efforts
to
obtain, on or before _____, 2007, such approvals of the Company’s stockholders
as may be required to issue all of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion or exercise of, or otherwise with respect to, the Notes and the
Warrants in accordance with Nevada law and any applicable rules or regulations
of the, Pink Sheets, the OTCBB and Nasdaq, either through a reverse stock split
of the Common Stock or an increase in authorized capital (the “Stockholder
Approval”). The Company shall furnish to each Buyer and its legal
counsel promptly (but in no event less than two (2) business days) before the
same is filed with the SEC, one copy of the proxy or information statement
and
any amendment thereto, and shall deliver to each Buyer promptly each letter
written by or on behalf of the Company to the SEC or the staff of the SEC,
and
each item of correspondence from the SEC or the staff of the SEC, in each case
relating to such proxy or information statement (other than any portion thereof
which contains information for which the Company has sought confidential
treatment). The Company will promptly (but in no event more than five
(5) business days) respond to any and all comments received from the SEC (which
comments shall promptly be made available to each Buyer). The Company
shall comply with the filing and disclosure requirements of Section 14 under
the
1934 Act in connection with the Stockholder Approval. The Company
represents and warrants that its Board of Directors has approved the proposal
contemplated by this Section 4(n) and shall indicate such approval in the proxy
or information statement used in connection with the Stockholder
Approval.
5. TRANSFER
AGENT INSTRUCTIONS. The Company shall issue irrevocable
instructions to its transfer agent to issue certificates, registered in the
name
of each Buyer or its nominee, for the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares
in
such amounts as specified from time to time by each Buyer to the Company upon
conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants in accordance with the
terms
thereof (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent
Instructions”). Prior to registration of the Conversion
Shares and Warrant Shares under the 1933 Act or the date on which the Conversion
Shares and Warrant Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any
restriction as to the number of Securities as of a particular date that can
then
be immediately sold, all such certificates shall bear the restrictive legend
specified in Section 2(g) of this Agreement. The Company warrants
that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions
referred to in this Section 5, and stop transfer instructions to give effect
to
Section 2(f) hereof (in the case of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares,
prior to registration of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares under the
1933
Act or the date on which the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares may be sold
pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of Securities
as
of a particular date that can then be immediately sold), will be given by the
Company to its transfer agent and that the Securities shall otherwise be freely
transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent
provided in this Agreement and the Registration Rights
Agreement. Nothing in this Section shall affect in any way the
Buyer’s obligations and agreement set forth in Section 2(g) hereof to comply
with all applicable prospectus delivery requirements, if any, upon re-sale
of
the Securities. If a Buyer provides the Company with (i) an opinion
of counsel in form, substance and scope customary for opinions in comparable
transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Securities
may be made without registration under the 1933 Act and such sale or transfer
is
effected or (ii) the Buyer provides reasonable assurances that the Securities
can be sold pursuant to Rule 144, the Company shall permit the transfer, and,
in
the case of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares, promptly instruct its
transfer agent to issue one or more certificates, free from restrictive legend,
in such name and in such denominations as specified by such
Buyer. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its
obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Buyers, by vitiating
the intent and purpose of the transactions contemplated
hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law
for a breach of its obligations under this Section 5 may be inadequate and
agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the
provisions of this Section, that the Buyers shall be entitled, in addition
to
all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach and
requiring immediate transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss
and
without any bond or other security being required.
17

consent of the other. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to
Section 2(f), any Buyer may assign its rights hereunder to any person that

Buyers and all their officers, directors, employees and agents for loss or
damage arising as a result of or related to any breach or alleged breach by

Sections 3 and 4 hereof or any of its covenants and obligations under this
Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement, including advancement of
expenses as they are incurred.
j. Publicity. The
Company and each of the Buyers shall have the right to review a reasonable
period of time before issuance of any press releases, SEC, Pink Sheets or NASD
filings, or any other public statements with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby; provided, however, that the Company shall be
entitled, without the prior approval of each of the Buyers, to make any press
release or SEC, Pink Sheets (or other applicable trading market) or NASD filings
with respect to such transactions as is required by applicable law and
regulations (although each of the Buyers shall be consulted by the Company
in
connection with any such press release prior to its release and shall be
provided with a copy thereof and be given an opportunity to comment
thereon).
k. Further
Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to
be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute
and
deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents,
as
the other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and
accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby.

Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement
will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual
intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any
party.
22
m. Remedies. The
Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will
cause
irreparable harm to the Buyers by vitiating the intent and purpose of the
transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company
acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this
Agreement will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened
breach by the Company of the provisions of this Agreement, that the Buyers
shall
be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies at law or in equity,
and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or
injunctions restraining, preventing or curing any breach of this Agreement
and
to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without the necessity
of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being
required.
