with or result in a violation of the Articles of Incorporation or By-laws of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries, or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a

incorporated therein. As of their respective dates, the SEC Documents complied
in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act or the
Securities Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations of the SEC
promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Documents, and none of the SEC
Documents, at the time they were filed with the SEC, contained any untrue
statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Any statements
made in any such SEC Documents that are or were required to be updated or
amended under applicable law have been so updated or amended. As of their
respective dates, the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC
Documents complied in all material respects with applicable accounting
requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC applicable with
respect thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with

condensed or summary statements) and fairly present in all material respects the
consolidated financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of the
dates thereof and the results of their operations and cash flows for the periods
then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal and
recurring year-end audit adjustments). Except as set forth in the SEC Documents,
the Company has no liabilities, contingent or otherwise, other than (i)
liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business subsequent to the date
of such SEC Documents and (ii) obligations under contracts and commitments
incurred in the ordinary course of business and not required under generally
accepted accounting principles to be reflected in such SEC Documents, which
liabilities and obligations referred to in clauses (i) and (ii), individually or
in the aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
(g) Absence of Certain Changes. Except as disclosed in the SEC
Documents, there has been no change or development since January 1, 2005, which,
individually or in the aggregate, has had or could have a Material Adverse
Effect on the Company.

there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any
court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body
pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the

their capacities as such which would have a Material Adverse Effect.

or procedures) and other similar rights and proprietary knowledge (collectively,
"Intangibles") necessary for the conduct of its business as now being conducted
and as proposed to be conducted. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries
has received written notice that it is infringing upon or in conflict with any
third party Intangibles. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has

agreements with respect to the validity of the Company's or such subsidiary's
ownership or right to use its Intangibles. The Intangibles are valid and
enforceable, and no registration relating thereto has lapsed, expired or been
abandoned or canceled or is the subject of cancellation or other adversarial
proceedings, and all applications therefor are pending and in good standing. The
7

Intangibles owned or used by the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

title that, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse
Effect. Any real property and facilities held under lease by the Company or any
of its subsidiaries are held by the Company or such subsidiary under valid,
subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions which have not had and
will not have a Material Adverse Effect.

insurance relating to their business, operations, assets, key-employees and
officers and directors as is appropriate to their business, assets and
operations, in such amounts and against such risks as are customarily carried
and insured against by owners of comparable businesses, assets and operations,
and such insurance coverages will be continued in full force and effect to and
including the Closing Date other than those insurance coverages in respect of
which the failure to continue in full force and effect could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

representations and warranties in this Agreement, neither the Company nor any of
its affiliates, nor any person acting on their behalf, has, directly or

the preparation and filing of a registration statement on Form SB-2 with respect
to the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement).

Company and its subsidiaries set forth in this Agreement or otherwise provided
to the Fund in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby is true and

the state courts located in the State of New York, County of New York, in any
suit or proceeding based on or arising under this Agreement, and irrevocably
agrees that all claims in respect of such suit or proceeding may be determined

class mail to the address set forth in Section 8(f) shall be deemed in every
respect effective service of process upon such party in any such suit or

non-appealable judgment in any such suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and
may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on such judgment or in any other
lawful manner.
12
(b) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and
shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and
delivered to each other party. This Agreement, once executed by a party, may be
delivered to the other parties hereto by facsimile transmission of a copy of
this Agreement bearing the signature of the party so delivering this Agreement.
In the event any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, the party

instruments referenced herein contain the entire understanding of the parties
with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as
specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company nor the Fund makes
any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such
matters. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an
instrument in writing signed by the Company and by the Fund. Any waiver by the
Fund, on the one hand, or the Company, on the other hand, of a breach of any
provision of this Agreement shall not be effective unless made in a writing
signed by the party granting the waiver, and shall not operate as or be

of any other provision of this Agreement. The failure of the Fund, on the one
hand, or the Company, on the other hand, to insist upon strict adherence to any
term of this Agreement on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver

threatened breach by such party of the provisions of this Agreement, that the
other parties shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to
an injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and
transfer, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or
other security being required.
