(a) The Subscriber is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

(b) The Subscriber realizes that the basis for exemption would not be available if the Offering was part of a plan or scheme to evade registration provisions of the Securities Act or any applicable state or federal securities laws.

(c) The Subscriber is acquiring the Shares and Warrants solely for the Subscriber’s own beneficial account, for investment purposes, and not with a view towards, or resale in connection with, any distribution of the Shares, Warrants or Underlying Shares.

(d) The Subscriber has the financial ability to bear the economic risk of the Subscriber’s investment, has adequate means for providing for its current needs and contingencies, and has no need for liquidity with respect to an investment in the Company.

(e) The Subscriber understands and accepts that the purchase of the Securities is highly risky. The Subscriber represents that it is able to bear any loss associated with an investment in the Securities.

(f) The Subscriber has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities.

(g) The Subscriber has had a reasonable opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from a person or persons acting on behalf of the Company concerning the Offering and the business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the Company. The Subscriber has had access to such information concerning the Company and the Shares as it deems necessary to make an informed investment decision concerning the purchase of the Shares.

(h) The Subscriber is unaware of, and is in no way relying on, any form of general solicitation or general advertising, including, without limitation, any article, notice, advertisement or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio, or electronic mail over the Internet, in connection with the Offering and is not subscribing for Shares and Warrants and did not become aware of the Offering through or as a result of any seminar or meeting to which the Subscriber was invited by, or any solicitation of a subscription by, a person not previously known to the Subscriber in connection with investments in securities generally.

(i) The Subscriber represents that it is not relying on (and will not at any time rely on) any communication (written or oral) of the Company, as investment advice or as a recommendation to purchase the Securities, it being understood that information and explanations related to the terms and conditions of the Securities shall not be considered investment advice or a recommendation to purchase the Securities.

(j) The Subscriber confirms that the Company has not (A) given any guarantee or representation as to the potential success, return, effect or benefit (either legal, regulatory, tax, financial, accounting or otherwise) of investment in the Securities or (B) made any representation to the Subscriber regarding the legality of an investment in the Securities under applicable legal investment or similar laws or regulations. In deciding to purchase the Securities, the Subscriber is not relying on the advice or recommendations of the Company and the Subscriber has made its own independent decision that the investment in the Securities is suitable and appropriate for the Subscriber.

(k) The Subscriber understands that, unless the Subscriber notifies the Company in writing to the contrary at or before the Closing, each of the Subscriber’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement will be deemed to have been reaffirmed and confirmed as of the Closing, taking into account all information received by the Subscriber.

(l) The Subscriber acknowledges that the Company has the right in its sole and absolute discretion to abandon the Offering at any time prior to the completion of the Offering. This Agreement shall thereafter have no force or effect and the Company shall return the previously paid subscription price of the Shares and Warrants, without interest thereon, to the Subscriber.

(m) The Subscriber understands that no federal or state agency has passed upon the merits or risks of an investment in the Securities or made any finding or determination concerning the fairness or advisability of this investment.

Section 4.3 Transfer Restrictions. The Subscriber will not sell or otherwise transfer any Securities without registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and fully understands and agrees that the Subscriber must bear the economic risk of its purchase because, among other reasons, the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or under the securities laws of any state and, therefore, cannot be resold, pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed of unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and under the applicable securities laws of such states, or an exemption from such registration is available. In particular, the Subscriber is aware that the Securities are “restricted securities,” as such term is defined in Rule 144, and they may not be sold pursuant to Rule 144 unless all of the conditions of Rule 144 are met. The Subscriber also understands that, except as set forth herein and in the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is under no obligation to register the Securities on behalf of the Subscriber or to assist the Subscriber in complying with any exemption from registration under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws. The Subscriber understands that any sales or transfers of the Securities are further restricted by state securities laws and the provisions of this Agreement. The Subscriber understands that, subject to the Subscriber's rights set forth herein, in the Warrant, and in the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company may establish procedures for approval of transfers, including transfers sought to be permitted under Rule 144, which may result in delays in desired sales or transfers by Subscriber.

Section 4.4 Legends.

(a) The Subscriber understands and agrees that the certificates for the Securities shall bear substantially the following legend (the “Restrictive Legend”) until such Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with a registration statement under the Securities Act that has been declared effective or an exemption thereunder:

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. SUCH SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, DELIVERED AFTER SALE, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED BY THE ISSUER WITH THE U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION COVERING SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION.

And certificates representing the shares of Preferred Stock shall also bear substantially the following legend:

THE ACTUAL NUMBER OF SECURITIES HELD BY THE HOLDER HEREOF MAY BE LESS THAN THE NUMBER OF SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE AS A RESULT OF THE PARTIAL CONVERSION OF THESE SECURITIES BY THE HOLDER.

(b) The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer of the Securities set forth in Section 4 without the consent of the holder thereof.

(c) Certificates evidencing the Underlying Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(a) above): (i) following the disposition of the Underlying Shares pursuant to a registration statement (including the Registration Statement) covering the resale of such security that is effective under the Securities Act, or (ii) following any sale of such Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144. The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly after the sale of the Underlying Shares as set forth in the preceding sentence if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder. The Company agrees that following such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1(c), it will, no later than five Business Days following the delivery by a Subscriber to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate representing Underlying Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend (such fifth Business Day, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to such Subscriber a certificate representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends (however, the Corporation shall use reasonable best efforts to deliver such shares within three (3) Trading Days). Certificates for Underlying Shares subject to legend removal hereunder shall be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Subscriber by crediting the account of the Subscriber’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by such Subscriber, if applicable.

(d) In addition to such Subscriber’s other available remedies, if the Company fails to deliver to a Subscriber such certificate or certificates pursuant to Section 4.4(c) on the second Trading Day after the Legend Removal Date, the Company shall pay to a Subscriber, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Underlying Shares (based on the price paid for the Underlying Shares) delivered for removal of the restrictive legend, $10 per Business Day for each Business Day after the second Trading Day following the Legend Removal Date (increasing to $20 per Business Day after the tenth Business Day) until such certificate is delivered without a legend. Nothing herein shall limit such Subscriber’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 Subscriber 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) Restrictions on transfer applicable to the Warrants and shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are set forth in the Warrant Agreement.

OTHER AGREEMENTS AND COVENANTS OF THE PARTIES

Section 5.1 Reservation and Listing of Securities.

(a) The Company shall maintain a reserve from its duly authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Transaction Documents in such amount as may then be required to fulfill its obligations in full under the Transaction Documents.

(b) If, on any date, the number of authorized but unissued (and otherwise unreserved) shares of Common Stock is less than the Required Minimum on such date, then the board of directors of the Company shall amend the Company’s articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to at least the Required Minimum at such time, as soon as possible and in any event not later than the 90th day after such date.

Section 5.2 Furnishing Information. As long as a Subscriber owns Shares, the Company covenants 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 Closing Date pursuant to the Exchange Act. As long as a Subscriber owns Shares, if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to the Exchange Act, it will prepare and furnish to such Subscriber and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act such information as is or would be required for such Subscriber to sell the Shares under Rule 144. The Company further covenants that it will take such further action to the extent required from time to time to enable such Subscriber to sell Underlying Shares without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

Section 5.3 Public Information Failure. At any time commencing six months after the Closing Date and ending at such time that all of the Securities may be sold without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) and otherwise without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144, if the Company shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c) and the Underlying Shares are not then subject to unrestricted public resale pursuant to an effective Registration Statement (a “Public Information Failure”) then, in addition to such Subscriber’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to a Subscriber, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Securities, an amount in cash equal to one percent (1.0%) of the aggregate value of the Preferred Stock (based on the price per share paid by the Subscribers) held by such Subscriber on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every thirtieth (30th) day (pro-rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) thereafter until the earlier of (a) the date such Public Information Failure is cured and (b) such time that such public information is no longer required for the Purchasers to transfer the Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule 144. The payments to which a Subscriber shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 5.3 are referred to herein as “Public Information Failure Payments.” Public Information Failure Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (i) the last day of the calendar month during which such Public Information Failure Payments are incurred and (ii) the third (3rd) Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Public Information Failure Payments is cured. In the event the Company fails to make Public Information Failure Payments in a timely manner, such Public Information Failure Payments shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full. Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser’s right to pursue actual damages for the Public Information Failure, and such Subscriber 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.

Section 5.4 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall, by 9:00 a.m. (Denver time) on the fourth (4th) Business Day immediately following the Closing Date file a current report on Form 8-K including the forms of the Transaction Documents as exhibits thereto. From and after the filing of such Form 8-K, the Company represents to the Subscribers that it shall have publicly disclosed all material, non-public information delivered to any of the Subscribers by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company and each Subscriber shall consult with each other in issuing any other press releases with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither the Company nor any Subscriber shall issue any such press release nor otherwise make any such public statement without the prior consent of the Company with respect to any press release of any Subscriber, or without the prior consent of each Subscriber with respect to any press release of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, provided that if such disclosure is required by law, the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement or communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and except for any Subscriber that is a director or Affiliate of the Company, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Subscriber, or include the name of any Subscriber in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading Market unless the name of such Subscriber is already included in the body of the Transaction Documents, without the prior written consent of such Subscriber, except: (a) as required by federal securities law in connection with the filing of final Transaction Documents with the SEC and (b) to the extent such disclosure is required by law or Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the Subscribers with prior notice of such disclosure permitted under this clause (b).

Section 5.5 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 Subscriber or its agents or counsel, other than any Subscriber that is a director or Affiliate of the Company or such Subscriber’s agents or counsel, with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Subscriber shall have entered into a written agreement with the Company regarding the confidentiality and use of such information. The Company understands and confirms that each Subscriber, other than any Subscriber that is a director or Affiliate of the Company, shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

Section 5.6 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 Subscriber. 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 Subscribers 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 Subscriber.

Section 5.7 Equal Treatment of Subscribers. No consideration (including any modification of any Transaction Document) shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of this Agreement unless the same consideration is also offered on a ratable basis to all of the parties to this Agreement. For clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Subscriber by the Company and negotiated separately by each Subscriber, and is intended for the Company to treat the Subscribers as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the Subscribers acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase, disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise.

Section 5.8 Further Assurances. Each of the parties shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Warrant Agreement, and the Registration Rights Agreement as promptly as practicable.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) any of the other Transaction Documents, whenever any Subscriber 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 Subscriber may, at any time prior to the Company’s performance of such obligations, 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, that in the case of a rescission of a conversion of the Preferred Stock or exercise of a Warrant, the applicable Subscriber shall be required to return any shares of Common Stock subject to any such rescinded conversion or exercise notice concurrently with the return to such Subscriber of the aggregate exercise price paid to the Company for such shares and the restoration of such Subscriber’s right to acquire such shares pursuant to such Subscriber’s Warrant (including, issuance of a replacement warrant certificate evidencing such restored right).

Section 8.17 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 therefor, 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.

Section 8.18 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Subscribers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents, provided that the Company shall not be liable to any Subscriber for any consequential or punitive damages. 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 agree to waive and not to assert in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

Section 8.19 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Subscriber pursuant to any Transaction Document or a Subscriber 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.

Section 8.20 Usury. To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Company hereby agrees not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury laws wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in connection with any claim, action or proceeding that may be brought by any Subscriber in order to enforce any right or remedy under any Transaction Document. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in any Transaction Document, it is expressly agreed and provided that the total liability of the Company under the Transaction Documents for payments in the nature of interest shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate authorized under applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), and, without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate of interest or default interest, or both of them, when aggregated with any other sums in the nature of interest that the Company may be obligated to pay under the Transaction Documents exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law and applicable to the Transaction Documents is increased or decreased by statute or any official governmental action subsequent to the date hereof, the new maximum contract rate of interest allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to the Transaction Documents from the Closing Date thereof forward, unless such application is precluded by applicable law. If under any circumstances whatsoever, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to any Subscriber with respect to indebtedness evidenced by the Transaction Documents, such excess shall be applied by such Subscriber to the unpaid principal balance of any such indebtedness or be refunded to the Company, the manner of handling such excess to be at such Subscriber’s election.

Section 8.21 Independent Nature of Subscribers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Subscriber under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Subscriber and no Subscriber 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 Subscriber pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Subscribers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Subscribers 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 Subscriber 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 Subscriber to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. Each Subscriber has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in its review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. For reasons of administrative convenience only, each Subscriber and its respective counsel have chosen to communicate with the Company through G&M. The Company has elected to provide all Subscribers 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 any of the Subscribers. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between the Company and a Subscriber, solely, and not between the Company and the Subscribers collectively and not between and among the Subscribers.

Section 8.22 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.

Section 8.23 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.

Section 8.24 Construction. The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel have 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 thereto. In addition, each and every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in any Transaction Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement.
