This COMMON STOCK AND WARRANT PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of February 4, 2010, is entered into by and among Echo Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company”), and the purchasers listed on Exhibit A hereto (each a "Purchaser” and collectively, the “Purchasers”), for the purchase and sale of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) by the Purchasers.

The parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE AND SALE OF COMMON STOCK AND WARRANTS

Section 1.1 Purchase and Sale of Common Stock and Warrants.

(a) Upon the following terms and conditions, the Company shall issue and sell to the Purchasers, and the Purchasers shall purchase from the Company, shares of Common Stock (the "Shares”) at a price per share of $1.50 (the “Per Share Purchase Price”) for an aggregate purchase price of up to Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (the “Purchase Price”); provided, however, that in the event that this offering is oversubscribed, the Company may, in it sole discretion, increase the Purchase Price up to twenty percent (20%). Each Purchaser shall pay the portion of the Purchase Price and shall receive that number of shares set forth opposite its name on Exhibit A hereto. The Company and the Purchasers are executing and delivering this Agreement in accordance with and in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”), including Regulation D (“Regulation D”), and/or upon such other exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act as may be available with respect to any or all of the investments to be made hereunder.

(b) Upon the following terms and conditions, each of the Purchasers shall be issued Warrants, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Warrants”), to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock equal to fifty percent (50%) of the number of Shares purchased by each Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, as set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name on Exhibit A hereto. The consideration for the Warrants shall be $0.0001 per Warrant and shall be deemed to be included in the Per Share Purchase Price. The Warrants shall expire five (5) years following the Closing Date at which such Warrants were issued and shall have an initial exercise price per share equal to $2.25, subject to appropriate adjustment as set forth in the Warrants. Any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (and such shares when issued) are herein referred to as the “Warrant Shares.” The Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Securities.”

Section 1.2 Purchase Price and Closings. In consideration of and in express reliance upon the representations, warranties, covenants, terms and conditions of this Agreement,

the Company agrees to issue and sell to the Purchasers and, in consideration of and in express reliance upon the representations, warranties, covenants, terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Purchasers, severally but not jointly, agree to purchase the number of Shares and Warrants set forth opposite their respective names on Exhibit A. The Securities shall be sold and funded in a closing (the “Closing”) that shall take place on or about February 9, 2010 (the "Closing Date”); provided, however, that in the event that the Company receives an aggregate Purchase Price of less than Three Million Dollars at the Closing, it may hold one or more additional closings until it has received the maximum aggregate Purchase Price pursuant to Section 1.1(a) above. The Closing shall take place at the offices of the Company, 00 Xxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx, XX 00000; provided, that all of the conditions set forth in Article IV hereof and applicable to the Closing shall have been fulfilled or waived in accordance herewith. At the Closing and upon receipt by the Company of the appropriate purchase price from each Purchaser (i.e., a purchase price equal to the number of Shares to be purchased by such Purchaser multiplied by the Per Share Purchase Price), the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to each such Purchaser (x) a certificate for the number of Shares set forth opposite the name of such Purchaser on Exhibit A hereto, (y) a Warrant to purchase such number of shares of Common Stock as is set forth opposite the name of such Purchaser on Exhibit A attached hereto and (z) any other documents required to be delivered pursuant to Article IV hereof. Each Purchaser shall deliver each of the documents required to be delivered by it pursuant to Article IV hereof as well as its portion of the Purchase Price by wire transfer to the Company.

The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Purchasers as follows, as of the date hereof (or other applicable date as stated in this Section 2.1) and the Closing Date, except as set forth on the Schedule of Exceptions attached hereto with each numbered Schedule corresponding to the section number herein:

The Company and each such Subsidiary is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary except for any jurisdiction(s) (alone or in the aggregate) in which the failure to be so qualified will not have a Material Adverse Effect. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Material Adverse Effect” means any effect on the business, results of operations, assets, condition or prospects (financial or otherwise) of the Company that is material and

adverse to the Company and its Subsidiaries (as hereafter defined), individually, or taken as a whole, and/or any condition, circumstance, or situation that would prohibit or otherwise materially interfere with the ability of the Company from entering into and performing any of its obligations under the Transaction Documents (as defined below) in any material respect; provided, however, that Material Adverse Effect shall not be deemed to include: (i) changes in applicable law or (ii) any effect resulting from the public announcement of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action. No further consent or authorization of the Company, its Board of Directors or stockholders is required. When executed and delivered by the Company, each of the Transaction Documents shall constitute a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

(c) Capitalization. The authorized capital stock of the Company as of the date hereof is set forth on Schedule 2.1(c) hereto. All of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock and any other outstanding security of the Company have been duly and validly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and were issued in accordance with the registration or qualification provisions of the Securities Act, or pursuant to valid exemptions therefrom.

of any of their securities under the Securities Act, (iii) there are no outstanding securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which contain any redemption or similar provisions, and there are no contracts, commitments, understandings, agreements or arrangements by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is or may become bound to redeem a security of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) there are no securities or instruments containing anti-dilution or similar provisions that will be triggered by the issuance of the Securities, (v) the Company does not have any stock appreciation rights or “phantom stock” plans or agreements, or any similar plan or agreement and (vi) as of the date of this Agreement, to the Company’s and each of its Subsidiaries’ Knowledge, no Person (as defined below) or group of related Persons beneficially owns (as determined pursuant to Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Exchange Act”)) or has the right to acquire by agreement with or by obligation binding upon the Company, beneficial ownership of in excess of 5% of the Common Stock except as disclosed on Schedule 2.1(c).

Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(x) hereto, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any employment contract, agreement regarding proprietary information, non-competition agreement, non-solicitation agreement, confidentiality agreement, or any other similar contract or restrictive covenant, relating to the right of any officer, employee or consultant to be employed or engaged by the Company or such Subsidiary. Since September 30, 2009, no officer, consultant or key employee of the Company or any Subsidiary whose termination, either individually or in the aggregate, would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, has terminated, or indicated to the Company his or her intent to terminate, his or her employment or engagement with the Company or any Subsidiary.

(cc) Independent Nature of Purchasers. The Company acknowledges that the obligations of each Purchaser under the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under the Transaction Documents and the Company shall not be excused from performance of its obligations to any Purchaser under the Transaction Documents as a result of nonperformance or breach by any other Purchaser. The Company acknowledges that the decision of each Purchaser to purchase Securities pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Purchaser independently of any other purchaser and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or of its Subsidiaries which may have made or given by any other Purchaser or by any agent or employee of any other Purchaser. The Company acknowledges that nothing contained herein, or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or 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. The Company acknowledges that 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.

(dd) No Integrated Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations and warranties herein, 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 would cause the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act which would prevent the Company from selling the Securities pursuant to Regulation D and Rule 506 thereof under the Securities Act, or any applicable exchange-related stockholder approval provisions, nor will the Company or any of its affiliates or Subsidiaries take any action or steps that would cause the offering of the Securities to be integrated with other offerings if such other offering, if integrated, would cause the offer and sale of the Securities not to be exempt from registration pursuant to Regulation D and Rule 506 thereof under the Securities Act. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(dd) hereto, the Company does not have any registration statement pending before the Commission or currently under the Commission’s review and since June 30, 2009, the Company has not offered or sold any of its equity securities or debt securities convertible into shares of Common Stock.

(ee) DTC Status. The Company’s current transfer agent is a participant in and the Common Stock is eligible for transfer pursuant to the Depository Trust Company Automated Securities Transfer Program. The name, address, telephone number, fax number, contact person and email address of the Company’s transfer agent is set forth on Schedule 2.1(ee) hereto.

(ff) Insurance. The Company and the Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized 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. To the best of Company’s knowledge, such insurance contracts and policies are

accurate and complete. 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. The Company currently maintains directors and officers insurance.

(gg) Accountants. The Company’s accountants are set forth on Schedule 2.1(gg). To the Company’s knowledge, such accountants, who the Company expects will express their opinion with respect to the financial statements to be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2009, are a registered public accounting firm as required by the Securities Act and are registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.

(hh) No Disagreements with Accountants. There are no disagreements of any kind presently existing, or reasonably anticipated by the Company to arise, between the accountants formerly or presently employed by the Company and/or its Subsidiaries, and the Company is current with respect to any fees owed to its accountants.

(ii) No General Solicitation or Advertising in Regard to this Transaction. Neither the Company nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any of its directors, officers or any person acting on their behalf (i) has conducted or will conduct any general solicitation (as that term is used in Rule 502(c) of Regulation D) or general advertising with respect to the sale of the Securities, or (ii) made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under any circumstances that would require registration of the Shares or Warrant Shares.

(jj) Foreign Corrupt Practices. Neither the Company nor its Subsidiaries, nor to the knowledge of the Company or its officers or directors, any agent or other person acting on behalf of the Company or its Subsidiaries, has (i) directly or indirectly, used any corrupt 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 its Subsidiaries (or made by any person acting on their behalf of which the Company or its officers or directors are or reasonably should be 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.

(kk) Certificate of Incorporation. True and correct copies of the Company’s certificate of incorporation and the certificates of incorporation and/or formation of the Company’s Subsidiaries are attached under Schedule 2.1(kk).

(ll) Litigation. There is no action, suit, inquiry, notice of violation, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the Knowledge of the Company, threatened, against or materially affecting the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties, or to the Company’s Knowledge, against any of its or its Subsidiaries’ directors, officers or key employees before or by any court, arbitrator, governmental or administrative agency or regulatory authority (federal, state, county, local or foreign) (collectively, an “Action”) which (i) adversely affects or challenges the legality, validity or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents or (ii)

could, if there were an unfavorable decision, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; nor to the Company’s knowledge does there exist any condition which may be the basis of any such Action. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, nor, to the Company’s knowledge, any director or officer thereof, is or has been the subject of any Action involving a claim of violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty or involving the Company’s business, assets or properties, nor has any such Action been threatened by or against the Company or any Subsidiary. There has not been, and to the Knowledge of the Company, there is not pending or contemplated, any investigation by the Commission involving the Company or any current or former director or officer of the Company. The Commission has not issued any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement filed by the Company or any Subsidiary under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act.

(mm) Anti-takeover Device. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any outstanding shareholder rights plan or “poison pill” or any similar arrangement. There are no provisions of any anti-takeover or business combination statute applicable to the Company, the Articles and the Bylaws which would preclude the issuance and sale of the Securities, the reservation for issuance of the Warrant Shares and the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents.

Section 2.2 Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers. Each of the Purchasers hereby represents and warrants to the Company with respect solely to itself and not with respect to any other Purchaser as follows as of the date hereof, except as set forth on the Schedule of Exceptions attached hereto with each numbered schedule corresponding to the section number herein:

When executed and delivered by the Purchasers, the Transaction Documents shall constitute valid and binding obligations of such Purchaser enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with their terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship, receivership or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditor’s rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application.

contemplated thereby and hereby do not and will not (i) violate any provision of such Purchaser’s charter or organizational documents, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement, instrument or obligation to which such Purchaser is a party or by which such Purchaser’s respective properties or assets are bound, or (iii) result in a violation of any federal, state, local or foreign statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable to such Purchaser or by which any property or asset of such Purchaser are bound or affected, except, in all cases, other than violations pursuant to clauses (i) or (iii) (with respect to federal and state securities laws) above, for such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, accelerations, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely affect such Purchaser’s ability to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents.

(d) Acquisition for Investment. Such Purchaser is purchasing the Securities solely for its own account for the purpose of investment and not with a view to or for sale in connection with distribution. Such Purchaser does not have a present intention to sell any of the Securities, nor a present arrangement (whether or not legally binding) or intention to effect any distribution of any of the Securities to or through any person or entity; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, such Purchaser does not agree to hold any of the Securities for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Securities at any time in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Transaction Documents and Federal and state securities laws applicable to such disposition.

Such Purchaser acknowledges that such person is familiar with Rule 144 of the rules and regulations of the Commission, as amended, promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), and that such Purchaser has been advised that Rule 144 permits resales only under certain circumstances. Such Purchaser understands that to the extent that Rule 144 is not

available, such Purchaser will be unable to sell any Securities without either registration under the Securities Act or the existence of another exemption from such registration requirement.

(f) General. Such Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered and sold in reliance on a transactional exemption from the registration requirements of federal and state securities laws and the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of such Purchaser to acquire the Securities. Such Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any government or governmental agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities.

Such Purchaser acknowledges that an investment in the Securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk.

(h) Independent Investment.

Since becoming aware of a potential investment opportunity in the Company, no Purchaser has engaged in any short sales of any securities of the Company or instructed any third parties to engage in any short sales of securities of the Company on its behalf prior to the Closing Date. Each Purchaser covenants and agrees that, so long as it is in possession of any Securities, it will not be in a net short position with respect to the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable to it.

(j) Not an Affiliate. Such Purchaser is not an officer, director or “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) of the Company.

If, prior to December 31, 2010, the Company proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering (other than any registration statement relating solely to an underwritten public offering or employee benefit plans or filed in connection with an exchange offer) of shares, then the Company shall in each case give written notice of such proposed filing to the Purchasers as soon as practicable (but no later than ten (10) business days) before the anticipated filing date, and such notice shall offer each Purchaser the opportunity to register such number of shares of restricted stock as such Purchaser may request.

The Company agrees to make the appropriate employee(s) available for such discussion(s).

Section 3.10 Reporting Status. So long as a Purchaser beneficially owns any of the Securities, the Company shall timely file all reports required to be filed with the Commission

pursuant to the Exchange Act, and the Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the Exchange Act even if the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would permit such termination.

Section 3.11 Disclosure of Material Information. The Company covenants and agrees that neither it nor any other person acting on its behalf has provided or 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.

Section 3.16 Pledge of Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Securities may be pledged by a Purchaser in connection with a bona fide margin agreement or other loan or financing arrangement that is secured by the Common Stock. The pledge of Common Stock shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Common Stock hereunder, and no Purchaser effecting a pledge of Common Stock shall be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; provided that a Purchaser and its pledgee shall be required to comply with the provisions of Article V hereof in order to effect a sale, transfer or assignment of Common Stock to such pledgee. At the Purchasers’ expense, the Company hereby agrees to execute and deliver such documentation as a pledgee of the Common Stock may reasonably request in connection with a pledge of the Common Stock to such pledgee by a Purchaser.

ARTICLE V

CERTIFICATE LEGEND

Section 5.1 Legend. Each certificate representing the Securities shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form (in addition to any legend required by applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE (THE “SECURITIES”) HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR ECHO THERAPEUTICS, INC. SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE HOLDER THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED.

The Company agrees to reissue certificates representing any of the Shares and the Warrant Shares, without the legend set forth above if at such time, prior to making any transfer of any such Shares or Warrant Shares, such holder thereof shall give written notice to the Company describing the manner and terms of such transfer and removal as the Company may reasonably request. Such proposed transfer and removal will not be effected until: (a) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that the registration of the Shares or Warrant Shares, as the case may be, under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such proposed transfer, (ii) a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Company with the Commission and has become and remains effective under the Securities Act, (iii) the Company has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such registration and qualification under the Securities Act and state securities laws are not required, or (iv) the holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such security can be

sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or another exemption therefrom; and (b) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that registration or qualification under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state is not required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii) compliance with applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws has been effected or a valid exemption exists with respect thereto. The Company will respond to any such notice from a holder within five (5) business days. In the case of any proposed transfer under this Section 5.1, the Company will use reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws, but shall in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do business in any state where it is not then qualified, or (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to the general service of process in any state where it is not then subject. The restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 5.1 shall be in addition to, and not by way of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer contained in any other section of this Agreement. Whenever a certificate representing the Shares or Warrant Shares is required to be issued to a Purchaser without a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Shares or Warrant Shares, provided the Company’s transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Shares or Warrant Shares to a Purchaser by crediting the account of such Purchaser’s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system (to the extent not inconsistent with any provisions of this Agreement).

ARTICLE VI

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 6.1 Company Indemnity. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless to the fullest extent of the law the Purchasers and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, partners, affiliates, employees, agents, successors and assigns (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages, obligations, claims, contingencies and expenses, including without limitation all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements and costs of investigation that any such Indemnified Party may suffer or incur (collectively, “Damages”) as a result of or relating to (a) any inaccuracy in or breach 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 a Purchaser’s representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings a Purchaser may have with any such stockholder or any violations by a Purchaser of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by a Purchaser which constitutes fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance). For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Affiliate” means any Person that, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls or is controlled by or is under common control with a Person, as such terms are used in and construed under Rule 144 under the Securities Act. With respect to a Purchaser, any investment fund or

managed account that is managed on a discretionary basis by the same investment manager as such Purchaser will be deemed to be an Affiliate of such Purchaser. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing in this Section 6.1, the Company shall not be liable under this Section 6.1 to any Indemnified Party to the extent that such Damages resulted or arose from the breach by an Indemnified Party of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of an Indemnified Party contained in the Transaction Documents or the gross negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct or bad faith of an Indemnified Party.

Section 6.2 Indemnification Procedure. If any action is brought against any Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, the Indemnified Party will give written notice to the Company of any matters giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Company of its obligations under this Article VI except to the extent that the Company is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. Upon the giving of such notice, Company shall have the right to assume the defense of any such action with counsel of its own choosing but reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party. Any Indemnified 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 Indemnified Party except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been 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 Indemnified Party. In any event, unless and until the Company elects in writing to assume and does so assume the defense of any such action, the Indemnified Party’s costs and expenses arising out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, shall be Damages subject to indemnification hereunder. The Indemnified Party will cooperate fully with the Company in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the Company, and shall furnish to the Company all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party which relates to such action. The Company shall keep the Indemnified Party fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI to the contrary, the Company shall not, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof which imposes any future obligation on the Indemnified Party or which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or similar rights of the Indemnified Party against the Company or others, and (b) any liabilities to which the Company may be subject to pursuant to the law.

ARTICLE VII

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 7.1 Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its advisors, counsel, accountants and

other experts, if any, and all other expenses, incurred by such party incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement.

Section 7.2 Specific Performance; Consent to Jurisdiction; Venue.

(a) The Company and the Purchasers acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof or thereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which any of them may be entitled by law or equity.

The Company and each Purchaser consent to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof 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 in this Section 7.2 shall affect or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

Section 7.3 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement and the Transaction Documents contain the entire understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to the matters covered hereby and, except as specifically set forth herein or in the other Transaction Documents, neither the Company nor any Purchaser make any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters, and they supersede all prior understandings and agreements with respect to said subject matter, all of which are merged herein. Following the Closing, no provision of this Agreement may be waived or amended other than by a written instrument signed by the Company and Boenning & Scattergood, Inc. in consultation with the Purchasers. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 7.3 shall be binding upon each Purchaser (and their permitted assigns) and the Company.

Section 7.5 Waivers. No waiver by any party 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 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 accruing to it thereafter.

Section 7.6 Headings. The article, section and subsection headings, and the table of contents, in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

Section 7.7 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and assigns. After the Closing, the assignment by a party to this Agreement of any rights hereunder shall not affect the obligations of such party under this Agreement. Subject to Section 5.1 hereof, the Purchasers may assign the Securities and their rights under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and any other rights hereto and thereto without the consent of the Company; provided, however, that such Purchaser shall not assign such Securities and such rights under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to any known competitor of the Company as identified in Schedule 7.7. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Purchaser may assign its rights as provided herein so long as (i) such Purchaser agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company within a reasonable time after such assignment, (ii) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer or assignment, furnished with written notice of (a) the name and address of such transferee or assignee, and (b) the rights

and/or securities with respect to which such rights are being transferred or assigned, (iii) following such transfer or assignment the further disposition of such securities by the transferee or assignees is in compliance under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, (iv) at or before the time the Company receives the written notice contemplated by clause (ii) of this Section 7.7, the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and (v) such transfer shall have been made in accordance with the applicable requirements of this Agreement.

Section 7.9 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any of the conflicts of law principles which would result in the application of the substantive law of another jurisdiction. This Agreement shall not be interpreted or construed with any presumption against the party causing this Agreement to be drafted.

Section 7.10 Survival. The representations and warranties of the Company and the Purchasers, including the contents of the schedules attached hereto, shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the Closing until the first anniversary of the Closing Date.

Section 7.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other parties hereto, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart.

Section 7.12 Severability. In the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any one or more of the provisions or part of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or part of a provision of this Agreement and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision, or part of such provision, had never been contained herein, so that such provisions would be valid, legal and enforceable to the fullest extent of the law.

Section 7.13 Publicity. The Company agrees that it will not disclose, and will not include in any public announcement, the names of the Purchasers without the prior written consent of the Purchasers, unless and until such disclosure is required by law, rule or applicable regulation, and then only to the extent of such requirement.

Section 7.14 Further Assurances. From and after the date of this Agreement, upon the request of the Purchasers or the Company, the Company and each Purchaser shall execute and deliver such instruments, documents and other writings as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to confirm and carry out and to effectuate fully the intent and purposes of this Agreement and the Warrants.
