stock of the Company are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, have been issued in
compliance with all federal and state securities laws, and none of such outstanding shares was

expected to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality,
disclosure or proprietary information agreement or non-competition agreement, or any other contract
or agreement or any restrictive covenant in favor of any third party, and the continued employment
of each such executive officer does not subject the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any
liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in
compliance with all U.S. federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to
employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except

Permit.

in all personal property owned by them that is material to the business of the Company and the

be made of such property by the Company and the Subsidiaries and Liens for the payment of federal,
state or other taxes, the payment of which is neither delinquent nor subject to penalties. Any

infringement by another Person of any of the Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and its
Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and
value of all of their intellectual properties, except where failure to do so would not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and
customary in the businesses in which the Company and the Subsidiaries are engaged, including, but
not limited to, directors and officers insurance coverage at least equal to the aggregate
Subscription Amount. Neither the Company nor any 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 without a
significant increase in cost.
(q) Transactions With Affiliates and Employees. Except as set forth in the SEC
Reports, none of the officers or directors of the Company and, to the knowledge of the Company,
none of the employees of the Company is presently a party to any transaction with the Company or
any Subsidiary (other than for services as employees, officers and directors), including any
contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or by,
providing for rental
11.
of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise requiring payments to or from any
officer, director or such employee or, to the knowledge of the Company, any entity in which any
officer, director, or any such employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director,
trustee or partner, in each case in excess of $120,000 other than for (i) payment of salary or
consulting fees for services rendered, (ii) reimbursement for expenses incurred on behalf of the
Company and (iii) other employee benefits, including stock option agreements under any stock option
plan of the Company.
(r) Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx; Internal Accounting Controls. Except as set forth in the SEC
Reports, the Company is in material compliance with all provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of
2002 which are applicable to it as of the Closing Date. The Company and the Subsidiaries maintain
a system of internal accounting controls sufficient 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 GAAP 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. The Company has established disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company
and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information required to be
disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and
forms. The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s
disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by the Company’s most
recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act (such date, the “Evaluation Date”).
The Company presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act the
conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and
procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there
have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is
defined in the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
(s) Certain Fees. No brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions are or will be payable
by the Company to any broker, financial advisor or consultant, finder, placement agent, investment
banker, bank or other Person with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents . The Purchasers shall have no obligation with respect to any fees or with respect to
any claims made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type contemplated in this Section
that may be due in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.
(t) Private Placement. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers representations and
warranties set forth in Section 3.2, no registration under the Securities Act is required for the
offer and sale of the Securities by the Company to the Purchasers as contemplated hereby. The
issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder does not contravene the rules and regulations of the
Trading Market.
(u) Investment Company. The Company is not, and is not an Affiliate of, and
immediately after receipt of payment for the Securities, will not be or be an Affiliate of, an
“investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
12.
(v) Registration Rights. Other than each of the Purchasers, no Person has any right
to cause the Company to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any securities of the
Company.
(w) Listing and Maintenance Requirements. The Company’s Common Stock is registered
pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, and the Company has taken no action
designed to, or which to its knowledge is likely to have the effect of, terminating the
registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act nor has the Company received any
notification that the Commission is contemplating terminating such registration. The Company has
not, in the 12 months preceding the date hereof, received notice from any Trading Market on which
the Common Stock is or has been listed or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in
compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading Market. The Company is, and
has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue to be, in compliance
with all such listing and maintenance requirements.
(x) Application of Takeover Protections. The Company and the Board of Directors have
taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition,
business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other
similar anti-takeover provision under the Company’s certificate of incorporation (or similar
charter documents), bylaws or the laws of its state of incorporation that is or could become
applicable to the Purchasers as a result of the Purchasers and the Company fulfilling their
obligations or exercising their rights under the Transaction Documents, including without
limitation as a result of the Company’s issuance of the Securities and the Purchasers’ ownership of
the Securities.
(y) Disclosure. Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Company confirms that neither it nor
any other Person acting on its behalf has provided any of the Purchasers or their agents or counsel
with any information that it believes constitutes material, non-public information. The Company
understands and confirms that the Purchasers will rely on the foregoing representation in effecting
transactions in securities of the Company. All disclosure furnished by or on behalf of the Company
to the Purchasers regarding the Company, its business and the transactions contemplated hereby,
including the Disclosure Schedules to this Agreement, is true and correct and does not contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make
the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. The Company acknowledges and agrees that no Purchaser makes or has made any
representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those
specifically set forth in Section 3.2 hereof.
(z) No Integrated Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations
and warranties set forth in Section 3.2, 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 of any
security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that could cause this
offering of the Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of (i)
the Securities Act which could require the registration of any such securities under the Securities
Act, or (ii) any applicable shareholder approval provisions of any Trading Market on which any of
the securities of the Company are listed or designated.
(aa) No General Solicitation. Neither the Company nor any person acting on behalf of
the Company has offered or sold any of the Securities by any form of general solicitation or
general advertising. The Company has offered the Securities for sale only to the Purchasers
and certain other “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501 under the Securities Act.
13.
(bb) Foreign Corrupt Practices. Neither the Company, nor to the knowledge of the
Company, any agent or other person acting on behalf of the Company, has (i) directly or indirectly,
used any funds for unlawful contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses related
to foreign or domestic political activity, (ii) made any unlawful payment to foreign or domestic
government officials or employees or to any foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns from
corporate funds, (iii) failed to disclose fully any contribution made by the Company (or made by
any person acting on its behalf of which the Company is aware) which is in violation of law, or
(iv) violated in any material respect any provision of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977,
as amended.
(cc) Acknowledgment Regarding Purchasers’ Purchase of Securities. The Company
acknowledges and agrees that each of the Purchasers is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s
length purchaser with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated
thereby. The Company further acknowledges that no Purchaser is acting as a financial advisor or
fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar capacity) with respect to the Transaction Documents and
the transactions contemplated thereby and any advice given by any Purchaser or any of their
respective representatives or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and the
transactions contemplated thereby is merely incidental to the Purchasers’ purchase of the
Securities. The Company further represents to each Purchaser that the Company’s decision to enter
into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents has been based solely on the independent
evaluation of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Company and its representatives.
(dd) Acknowledgement Regarding Purchaser’s Trading Activity. Anything in this
Agreement or elsewhere herein to the contrary notwithstanding (except for Sections 3.2(f) and 4.13
hereof), it is understood and acknowledged by the Company (i) that none of the Purchasers have been
asked by the Company to agree, nor has any Purchaser agreed, to desist from purchasing or selling,
long and/or short, securities of the Company, or “derivative” securities based on securities issued
by the Company or to hold the Securities for any specified term; (ii) that past or future open
market or other transactions by any Purchaser, specifically including, without limitation, Short
Sales or “derivative” transactions, before or after the closing of this or future private placement
transactions, may negatively impact the market price of the Company’s publicly-traded securities;
(iii) that any Purchaser, and counter-parties in “derivative” transactions to which any such
Purchaser is a party, directly or indirectly, presently may have a “short” position in the Common
Stock, and (iv) that each Purchaser shall not be deemed to have any affiliation with or control
over any arm’s length counter-party in any “derivative” transaction. The Company further
understands and acknowledges that (a) one or more Purchasers may engage in hedging activities at
various times during the period that the Securities are outstanding, including, without limitation,
during the periods that the value of the Warrant Shares deliverable with respect to Securities are
being determined, and (b) such hedging activities (if any) could reduce the value of the existing
stockholders’ equity interests in the Company at and after the time that the hedging activities are
being conducted. The Company acknowledges that such aforementioned hedging activities do not
constitute a breach of any of the Transaction Documents.
(ee) Regulation M Compliance. The Company has not, and to its knowledge no one
acting on its behalf has, (i) taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or to
result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to
facilitate the sale
14.
or resale of any of the Securities, (ii) sold, bid for, purchased, or, paid any compensation
for soliciting purchases of, any of the Securities in violation of Regulation M under the Exchange
Act, or (iii) paid or agreed to pay to any Person any compensation for soliciting another to
purchase any other securities of the Company, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii),
compensation paid to the Company’s placement agent in connection with the placement of the
Securities.
(ff) Form S-3 Eligibility. The Company is eligible to register the resale of the
Securities for resale by the Purchaser on Form S-3 promulgated under the Securities Act.
(gg) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(gg), the Company and each of its subsidiaries
has filed all Federal, state, local and foreign tax returns which are required to be filed through
the date hereof, which returns are true and correct in all material respects or has received timely
extensions thereof, and has paid all taxes shown on such returns and all assessments received by it
to the extent that the same are material and have become due. There are no tax audits or
investigations pending, which if adversely determined would have a Material Adverse Effect; nor, to
the Company’s knowledge, are there any material proposed additional tax assessments against the
Company or any of its subsidiaries.
(hh) The operations of the Company and its subsidiaries are and have been conducted at all
times in compliance with applicable financial recordkeeping and reporting requirements of the
Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of 1970, as amended, the money laundering statutes
of all jurisdictions, the rules and regulations hereunder and any related or similar rules,
regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by any governmental agency
(collectively, the “Money Laundering Laws”) and no action, suit or proceeding by or before any
court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving the Company or any of
it subsidiaries with respect to the Money Laundering Laws is pending, or to the best knowledge of
the Company, threatened.
3.2 Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser, for itself and
for no other Purchaser, hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof and as of the Closing
Date to the Company as follows:
(a) Organization; Authority. Such Purchaser is an entity duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization with full
right, corporate or partnership power and authority to enter into and to consummate the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its obligations
hereunder and thereunder. The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and performance
by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate or similar action on the part of such Purchaser. Each
Transaction Document to which it is a party has been duly executed by such Purchaser, and when
delivered by such Purchaser in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and
legally binding obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms,
except (i) as limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of
creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific
performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and (iii) insofar as indemnification and
contribution provisions may be limited by applicable law.
15.
(b) Own Account. Such Purchaser understands that the Securities are “restricted
securities” and have not been registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state
securities law and is acquiring the Securities as principal for its own account and not with a view
to or for distributing or reselling such Securities or any part thereof in violation of the
Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, has no present intention of distributing any
of such Securities in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law and
has no direct or indirect arrangement or understandings with any other persons to distribute or
regarding the distribution of such Securities (this representation and warranty not limiting such
Purchaser’s right to sell the Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement or otherwise in
compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws) in violation of the Securities Act or
any applicable state securities law. Such Purchaser is acquiring the Securities hereunder in the
ordinary course of its business.
(c) Purchaser Status. At the time such Purchaser was offered the Securities, it was,
and at the date hereof it is, and on each date on which it exercises any Warrants, it will be
either: (i) an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3), (a)(7) or (a)(8)
under the Securities Act or (ii) a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A(a) under
the Securities Act. Such Purchaser is not required to be registered as a broker-dealer under
Section 15 of the Exchange Act.
(d) Experience of Such Purchaser. Such Purchaser, either alone or together with its
representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial
matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the
Securities, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. Such Purchaser is able
to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities and, at the present time, is able to
afford a complete loss of such investment.
(e) General Solicitation. Such Purchaser is not purchasing the Securities as a result
of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding the Securities published in
any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any
seminar or any other general solicitation or general advertisement.
(f) Short Sales and Confidentiality Prior to the Date Hereof. Other than consummating
the transactions contemplated hereunder, such Purchaser has not, nor has any Person acting on
behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Purchaser, directly or indirectly executed any
purchases or sales, including Short Sales, of the securities of the Company during the period
commencing from the time that such Purchaser was first contacted by RBC or the Company concerning
an investment in the Company until the date hereof (“Discussion Time”). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby
separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio
managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers
managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the representation set forth above shall only
apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the
investment decision to purchase the Securities covered by this Agreement. Other than to other
Persons party to this Agreement, such Purchaser has maintained the confidentiality of all
disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of

ARTICLE IV.
OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
4.1 Transfer Restrictions.
(a) The Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities
laws. In connection with any transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an effective
registration statement or Rule 144, to the Company or to an Affiliate of a Purchaser or in
connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company may require the transferor
thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably
acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory
to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred
Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree
in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights of a Purchaser
under this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.
(b) The Purchasers agree to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 4.1, of a
legend on any of the Securities in the following form:
THIS SECURITY 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 AS
EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE
SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY. 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 OR OTHER LOAN SECURED
BY SUCH SECURITIES.
The Company acknowledges and agrees that a Purchaser may from time to time pledge pursuant to
a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some
or all of the Securities to a financial institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in
Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and who agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement
and the Registration Rights Agreement and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, such
Purchaser may transfer pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or secured parties. Such a
pledge or transfer could not be subject to approval of the Company and no legal opinion of legal
counsel of the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith.
Further, no notice shall be required of such pledge. At the appropriate Purchaser’s expense, the
Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party of
Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Securities,
including, if the Securities are subject to registration pursuant to the Registration Rights
Agreement, the preparation
and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act
or other applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of Selling
Stockholders thereunder.
17.
(c) Certificates evidencing the Shares and Warrant Shares shall not contain any legend
(including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b)), (i) while a registration statement (including
the Registration Statement) covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities
Act, or (ii) following any sale of such Shares or Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (iii) if
such Shares or Warrant Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k), or (iv) if such legend is
not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial
interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission). The Company shall cause
its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly after the Effective Date if
required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder. If all or any
portion of a Warrant is exercised at a time when there is an effective registration statement to
cover the resale of the Warrant Shares, such Warrant Shares shall be issued free of all legends.
The Company agrees that following the Effective Date or at such time as such legend is no longer
required under this Section 4.1(c), it will, no later than four Trading Days following the delivery
by a Purchaser to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate representing Shares or Warrant
Shares, as the case may be, issued with a restrictive legend (such third Trading Day, the
“Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate
representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends. The Company may not
make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the
restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section. Certificates for Securities subject to legend
removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Purchaser by crediting the
account of the Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by
such Purchaser.
(d) In addition to such Purchaser’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to
a Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Shares
or Warrant Shares (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date such Securities are submitted
to the Transfer Agent) delivered for removal of the restrictive legend and subject to Section
4.1(c), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day five (5) Trading Days after such
damages have begun to accrue) for each Trading Day commencing on the second Trading Day immediately
following the Legend Removal Date until such certificate is delivered without a legend. Nothing
herein shall limit such Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Company’s failure to
deliver certificates representing any Securities as required by the Transaction Documents, and such
Purchaser shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity
including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.
(e) Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, agrees that such
Purchaser will sell any Securities pursuant to either the registration requirements of the
Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption
therefrom, and that if Securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold
in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein, and acknowledges that the removal of
the restrictive legend from certificates representing Securities as set forth in this Section 4.1
is predicated upon the Company’s reliance upon this understanding.
18.
4.2 Furnishing of Information. Until the earliest of the time that (i) no Purchaser
owns Securities or (ii) the Warrants have expired, the Company covenants to use commercially
reasonable efforts to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the
applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof
pursuant to the Exchange Act even if the Company is not then subject to the reporting requirements
of the Exchange Act. As long as any Purchaser owns Securities, if the Company is not required to
file reports pursuant to the Exchange Act, it will prepare and furnish to the Purchasers and make
publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such information as is required for the
Purchasers to sell the Securities under Rule 144. The Company further covenants that it will take
such further action as any holder of Securities may reasonably request, to the extent required from
time to time to enable such Person to sell such Securities without registration under the
Securities Act within the requirements of the exemption provided by Rule 144.
4.3 Integration. The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy
or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act)
that could be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that could require
the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities to the Purchasers or that
could be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities to the Purchasers for purposes of the
rules and regulations of any Trading Market such that it could require shareholder approval prior
to the closing of such other transaction unless shareholder approval is obtained before the closing
of such subsequent transaction.
4.4 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall, by (i) 8:30 a.m. (New
York City time) on the Trading Day immediately following the date hereof issue a press release and
(ii) 8:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Trading Day immediately following the date
hereof, issue a Current Report on Form 8-K, in each case disclosing the material terms of the
transactions contemplated hereby, and (in the case of the Report on Form 8-K) filing the
Transaction Documents as exhibits thereto. The Company and each Purchaser shall consult with each
other in issuing any other press releases with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and
neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue any such press release or otherwise make any such
public statement without the prior consent of the Company, with respect to any press release of any
Purchaser, or without the prior consent of each Purchaser, with respect to any press release of the
Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, except if such disclosure is
required by law, in which case the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party with
prior notice of such public statement or communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company
shall not publicly disclose the name of any Purchaser, or include the name of any Purchaser in any
filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without the prior written
consent of such Purchaser, except (i) as required by federal securities law in connection with (A)
any registration statement contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement and (B) the filing of
final Transaction Documents (including signature pages thereto) with the Commission and (ii) to the
extent such disclosure is required by law or Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company
shall provide the Purchasers with prior notice of such disclosure permitted under this clause (ii).
4.5 Shareholder Rights Plan. No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or,
with the consent of the Company, any other Person, that any Purchaser is an “Acquiring Person”
under any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution
under a rights agreement) or similar anti-takeover plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter
adopted by the Company, or that any Purchaser could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such
plan or
arrangement, by virtue of receiving Securities under the Transaction Documents or under any
other agreement between the Company and the Purchasers.
19.
4.6 Non-Public Information. Except with respect to the material terms and conditions
of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Company covenants and agrees
that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf will provide any Purchaser or its agents
or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public
information, unless prior thereto such Purchaser shall have executed a written agreement regarding
the confidentiality and use of such information. The Company understands and confirms that each
Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the
Company.
4.7 Use of Proceeds. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.7 attached hereto, the Company
shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder for working capital purposes
and shall not use such proceeds for (a) the satisfaction of any portion of the Company’s debt
(other than payment of trade payables in the ordinary course of the Company’s business and prior
practices), (b) the redemption of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents or (c) the
settlement of any outstanding litigation.
4.8 Indemnification of Purchasers. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.8, the
Company will indemnify and hold each Purchaser and its directors, officers, shareholders, members,
partners, employees and agents (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a
Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), each Person
who controls such Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20
of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, shareholders, agents, members, partners or
employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such
titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling persons (each,
a “Purchaser Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims,
contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements,
court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation that any such Purchaser Party
may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to (a) any breach of any of the representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in the other
Transaction Documents or (b) any action instituted against a Purchaser, or any of them or their
respective Affiliates, by any stockholder of the Company who is not an Affiliate of such Purchaser,
with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (unless such
action is based upon a breach of such Purchaser’s representations, warranties or covenants under
the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings such Purchaser may have with any such
stockholder or any violations by the Purchaser of state or federal securities laws or any conduct
by such Purchaser which constitutes fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance).
If any action shall be brought against any Purchaser Party in respect of which indemnity may be
sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Purchaser Party shall promptly notify the Company in
writing, and the Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own
choosing reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser Party, provided, that the failure of any Purchaser
Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Company of its obligations under this Agreement
except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure
shall have materially prejudiced the Company. Any Purchaser Party shall have the right to employ
separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and
expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Purchaser Party except to the extent that
(i) the employment thereof has been
20.
specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company has failed after a
reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action
there is, in the reasonable opinion of such separate counsel, a material conflict on any material
issue between the position of the Company and the position of such Purchaser Party, in which case
the Company shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such
separate counsel. The Company will not be liable to any Purchaser Party under this Agreement (i)
for any settlement by a Purchaser Party effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (ii) to the extent, but only to the extent that a
loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to any Purchaser Party’s breach of any of the
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Purchaser Party in this Agreement
or in the other Transaction Documents.
4.9 Reservation of Common Stock. As of the date hereof, the Company has reserved and
the Company shall continue to reserve and keep available at all times, free of preemptive rights, a
sufficient number of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of enabling the Company to issue Shares
pursuant to this Agreement and Warrant Shares pursuant to any exercise of the Warrants.
4.10 Listing of Common Stock. The Company hereby agrees to commercially reasonable
best efforts to maintain the listing of the Common Stock on a Trading Market, and as soon as
reasonably practicable following the Closing (but not later than the earlier of the Effective Date
and the first anniversary of the Closing Date) to list all of the Shares and Warrant Shares on such
Trading Market. The Company further agrees, if the Company applies to have the Common Stock traded
on any other Trading Market, it will include in such application all of the Shares and Warrant
Shares, and will take such other action as is necessary to cause all of the Shares and Warrant
Shares to be listed on such other Trading Market as promptly as possible. The Company will take
all action reasonably necessary to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on a
Trading Market and will comply in all respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other
obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Trading Market.
4.11 Equal Treatment of Purchasers. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any
Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction
Documents unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction
Documents. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each
Purchaser by the Company and negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and is intended for the
Company to treat the Purchasers as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Purchasers
acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of Securities
or otherwise.
4.12 Subsequent Equity Sales.
(a) From the date hereof until 90 days after the Effective Date, neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary shall issue shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents; provided,
however, the 90 day period set forth in this Section 4.13 shall be extended for the number
of Trading Days during such period in which (i) trading in the Common Stock is suspended by any
Trading Market, or (ii) following the Effective Date, the Initial Registration Statement is not
effective or the prospectus included in the Registration Statement may not be used by the
Purchasers for the resale of the Shares and Warrant Shares.
21.
(b) From the date hereof until such time as no Purchaser holds any of the Securities, the
Company shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any Subsequent
Financing involving a Variable Rate Transaction. “Variable Rate Transaction” means a
transaction in which the Company issues or sells any debt or equity securities that are convertible
into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive additional shares of Common
Stock either (A) at a conversion, exercise or exchange rate or other price that is based upon
and/or varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time
after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities, or (B) with a conversion, exercise or
exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of
such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or
indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the Common Stock. Any
Purchaser shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company to preclude any such
issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.13 shall not apply in respect of an Exempt
Issuance, except that no Variable Rate Transaction shall be an Exempt Issuance.
4.13 Short Sales and Confidentiality after the Date Hereof. Each Purchaser, severally
and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that neither it nor any Affiliate acting on
its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any Short Sales during the period
commencing at the Discussion Time and ending at the time that the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement are first publicly announced as described in Section 4.4. Each Purchaser, severally and
not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that until such time as the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed by the Company as described in Section 4.4,
such Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of the existence and terms of this transaction and
the information included in the Disclosure Schedules. Each Purchaser severally and not jointly
with any other Purchaser, understands and acknowledges, and agrees, to act in a manner that will
not violate the positions of the Commission as set forth in Item 65, Section A, of the Manual of
Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations, dated July 1997, compiled by the Office of Chief
Counsel, Division of Corporation Finance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Purchaser makes any
representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage in Short Sales in the
securities of the Company after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are
first publicly announced as described in Section 4.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case
of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers
manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct
knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of
such Purchaser’s assets, the covenant set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion
of assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the
Securities covered by this Agreement.
4.14 Delivery of Securities after Closing. The Company shall deliver, or cause to be
delivered, the respective Securities purchased by each Purchaser to such Purchaser within 3 Trading
Days of the Closing Date.
4.15 Form D; Blue Sky Filings. The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with
respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof, promptly
upon request of any Purchaser. The Company shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably
determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the Securities for, sale
to the Purchasers at the Closing under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of
the United States, and shall provide evidence of such actions promptly upon request of any
Purchaser.

5.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by any Purchaser, as to such
Purchaser’s obligations hereunder only and without any effect whatsoever on the obligations between
the Company and the other Purchasers, by written notice to the other parties, if the Closing has
not been consummated on or before June 26, 2007; provided, however, that no such
termination will affect the right of any party to xxx for any breach by the other party (or
parties).

and executed copy of the Closing Statement, attached hereto as Annex A. Except as
expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents to the contrary, each party shall pay the fees and

expenses incurred by any other Purchaser. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees, stamp
taxes and other taxes and duties levied in connection with the delivery of any Securities to the
Purchasers.
5.3 Entire Agreement. The Transaction Documents, together with the exhibits and

except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Company and the
Purchasers of at least 85% of the Shares still held by the Purchasers or, in the case of a waiver,
by the party against whom enforcement of any such waived provision is sought. No waiver of any
default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement
shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default
or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or
omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such
right.
23.
5.6 Headings. The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part
of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.
5.7 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The Company may not assign this
Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each
Purchaser (other than by merger or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company).
Any Purchaser may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom such
Purchaser assigns or transfers any Securities, provided such transferee agrees in writing to be
bound, with respect to the transferred Securities, by the provisions of the Transaction Documents
that apply to the “Purchasers.”
5.8 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of,
nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except as otherwise set forth in
Section 4.8.
5.9 Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement
and interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall be governed by and construed and enforced in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of
conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the
interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any
other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates,
directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state
and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York, borough of
Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any
transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of
any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any
suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any
such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such
proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to
process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via
registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the
address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall
constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein
shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by
law. If either party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of the
Transaction Documents, then the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed
by the other party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with
the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.
24.
5.10 Survival. The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the
Closing and the delivery of the Shares and Warrant Shares for a period of three years.
5.11 Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of
which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective
when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being
understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature
is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a .“pdf” format data file, such
signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf
such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or .“pdf” signature
page were an original thereof.
5.12 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement
is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the
remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in
full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties
hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to
achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision,
covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties
that they could have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without
including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.
5.13 Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) any of the other Transaction
Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction
Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods therein
provided, then such Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time
upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part
without prejudice to its future actions and rights; provided, however, in the case
of a rescission of an exercise of a Warrant, the Purchaser shall be required to return any shares
of Common Stock delivered in connection with any such rescinded exercise notice.
5.14 Replacement of Securities. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any
Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued
in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof (in the case of mutilation), or in
lieu of and substitution therefore, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of
evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction. The applicant
for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable
third-party costs (including customary indemnity) associated with the issuance of such replacement
Securities.
5.15 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein
or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Purchasers and the Company will be
entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary
damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of
obligations contained in the Transaction Documents and hereby agrees to waive and
not to assert in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a
remedy at law could be adequate.
25.
5.16 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to
any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or a Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights
thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any
part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside,
recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the
Company, a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law (including, without limitation, any
bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent
of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be
revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such
enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
5.17 Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of
each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any
other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance or
non-performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document. Nothing
contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser
pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a
joint venture or any other kind of 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. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently
protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation, 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. Each Purchaser
has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in their review and negotiation of the
Transaction Documents. For reasons of administrative convenience only, Purchasers and their
respective counsel have chosen to communicate with the Company through FWS. FWS does not represent
the Purchasers. The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and
Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or
requested to do so by the Purchasers.
5.18 Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to pay any partial liquidated
damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction Documents is a continuing obligation of the
Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid partial liquidated damages and other amounts have
been paid notwithstanding the fact that the instrument or security pursuant to which such partial
liquidated damages or other amounts are due and payable shall have been canceled.
5.19 Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking
of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business
Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business
Day.
26.
5.20 Construction. The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel
has reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore, the
normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the
drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any
amendments hereto.
5.21 Waiver of Jury Trial. In any action, suit or proceeding in any jurisdiction
brought by any party against any other party, the parties each knowingly and intentionally, to the
greatest extent permitted by applicable law, hereby absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably and
expressly waives forever trial by jury.
