as the
case may be, in all jurisdictions in which the nature or location of its
activities and of its properties (both owned and leased) makes such
qualification necessary, except for those jurisdictions in which failure
to do

Subsidiaries will permit any representatives designated by the Purchaser

successor of the Purchaser), upon reasonable notice and during normal business
hours, at such person’s expense and accompanied by a representative of the
Company or any Subsidiary (provided that no such prior notice shall be required

Each of
the Company and each of its Subsidiaries will promptly pay and discharge,
or
cause to be paid and discharged, when due and payable, all taxes, assessments
and governmental charges or levies imposed upon the income, profits, property
or
business of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that any
such

GAAP; and provided, further, that the Company and its Subsidiaries will pay
all
such taxes, assessments, charges or levies forthwith upon the commencement
of
proceedings to foreclose any lien which may have attached as security
therefor.
6.8 Insurance.
As long
as the Purchaser holds the Securities: Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries
will keep its assets which are of an insurable character insured by financially
sound and reputable insurers against loss or damage by fire, explosion and
other
risks customarily insured against by companies in similar business similarly
situated as the Company and the Subsidiaries; and the Company and the
Subsidiaries will maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurers,
insurance against other hazards and risks and liability to persons and property
to the extent and in the manner which the Company reasonably believes is
customary for companies in similar business similarly situated as the Company
and the Subsidiaries and to the extent available on commercially reasonable
terms. The Company, and each of the Subsidiaries, will jointly and severally
bear the full risk of loss from any loss of any nature whatsoever with respect
to the assets pledged to the Purchaser as security for their respective
obligations hereunder and under the Related Agreements. At the Company’s and
each of the Subsidiaries’ joint and several cost and expense in amounts and with
carriers reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser, each of the Company and
each of
the Subsidiaries shall (i) keep all its insurable properties and properties
in
which it has an interest insured against the hazards of fire, flood, sprinkler
leakage, those hazards covered by extended coverage insurance and such other
hazards, and for such amounts, as is customary in the case of companies engaged
in businesses similar to the Company’s or the respective Subsidiary’s including
business interruption insurance; (ii) intentionally omitted (iii) maintain
public and product liability insurance against claims for personal injury,
death
or property damage suffered by others; (iv) maintain all such worker’s
compensation or similar insurance as may be required under the laws of any
state
or jurisdiction in which the Company or the respective Subsidiary is engaged
in
business; (v) furnish the Purchaser with (x) copies of all policies and evidence
of the maintenance of such policies at least thirty (30) days before any
expiration date, (y) excepting the Company’s workers’ compensation policy,
endorsements to such policies naming the Purchaser as “co-insured” or
“additional insured” and appropriate loss payable endorsements in form and
substance satisfactory to the Purchaser, naming the Purchaser as loss payee,
and
(z) evidence that as to the Purchaser the insurance coverage shall not be
impaired or invalidated by any act or neglect of the Company or any Subsidiary
and the insurer will provide the Purchaser with at least thirty (30) days
notice
prior to cancellation. The Company and each Subsidiary shall instruct the
insurance carriers that in the event of any loss thereunder, the carriers
shall
make payment for such loss to the Company and/or the Subsidiary and the
Purchaser jointly. In the event that as of the date of receipt of each loss
recovery upon any such insurance, the Purchaser has not declared an event
of
default with respect to this Agreement or any of the Related Agreements,
then
the Company and/or such Subsidiary shall be permitted to direct the application
of such loss recovery proceeds toward investment in property, plant and
equipment that would comprise “Collateral” secured by the Purchaser’s security
interest pursuant to the Master Security Agreement or such other security
agreement as shall be required by the Purchaser, with any surplus funds to
be
applied toward payment of the obligations of the Company to the Purchaser.
In
the event that the Purchaser has properly declared an event of default with
respect to this Agreement or any of the Related Agreements, then all loss
recoveries received by the Purchaser upon any such insurance thereafter may
be
applied to the obligations of the Company hereunder and under the Related
Agreements, in such order as the Purchaser may determine. Any surplus (following
satisfaction of all Company obligations to the Purchaser) shall be paid by
the
Purchaser to the Company or applied as may be otherwise required by law.
Any
deficiency thereon shall be paid by the Company or the Subsidiary, as
applicable, to the Purchaser, on demand.
6.9 Intellectual
Property.

as the Purchaser holds the Securities, each of the Company and each of its
Subsidiaries shall maintain in full force and effect its existence, rights
and
franchises and all licenses and other rights to use Intellectual Property
owned
or possessed by it and reasonably deemed to be necessary to the conduct of
its
business.
6.10 Properties.
As long
as the Purchaser holds the Securities, each of the Company and each of its
Subsidiaries will keep its properties in good repair, working order and
condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and from time to time make
all
needful and proper repairs, renewals, replacements, additions and improvements
thereto; and each of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries will at all
times
comply with each provision of all leases to which it is a party or under
which
it occupies property if the breach of such provision could, either individually
or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.
6.11 Confidentiality.
The
Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, disclose,
and
will not include in any public announcement, the name of the Purchaser, unless
expressly agreed to by the Purchaser or unless and until such disclosure

such
requirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may disclose the
Purchaser’s identity and the terms of this Agreement to its current and
prospective debt and equity financing sources.

in the
ordinary course of business, or any refinancings or replacements thereof

the ordinary course of business or guarantees of indebtedness otherwise
permitted to be outstanding pursuant to this clause (e); and
(II)
The
Company, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, shall not (a)
permit any of its Subsidiaries to, create or acquire any subsidiary or
Subsidiary after the date hereof unless (i) such subsidiary is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company or any Subsidiary and (ii) such subsidiary or
Subsidiary becomes a party to the Master Security Agreement, the Stock Pledge
Agreement and the Subsidiary Guaranty (either by executing a counterpart
thereof
or an assumption or joinder agreement in respect thereof) and, to the extent
required by the Purchaser, satisfies each condition of this Agreement and
the
Related Agreements as if such subsidiary were a Subsidiary on the Closing
Date
or (b) (i) permit any of its Subsidiaries to make, any investments in, or

any

the
Period, prior to the incurrence of any additional indebtedness and/or the
sale
or issuance of any secured convertible debt securities of the Company or
any of
the Subsidiaries (an “Additional Financing”), the Company and/or any Subsidiary,
as the case may be, shall notify the Purchaser of its intention to enter
into
such Additional Financing. In connection therewith, the Company and/or the
applicable Subsidiary thereof shall submit a fully executed term sheet (a
“Proposed Term Sheet”) to the Purchaser setting forth the terms, conditions and
pricing of any such Additional Financing (such financing to be negotiated
on
“arm’s length” terms and the terms thereof to be negotiated in good faith)
proposed to be entered into by the Company and/or such Subsidiary. The Purchaser
shall have the right, but not the obligation, to deliver its own proposed
term
sheet (the “Purchaser Term Sheet”) setting forth the terms and conditions upon
which the Purchaser would be willing to provide such Additional Financing
to the
Company and/or such Subsidiary. The Purchaser shall deliver such Purchaser
Term
Sheet within five (5) business days of receipt of each such Proposed Term
Sheet.

net
economic effect to the provisions of the Proposed Term Sheet, the Company
and/or
such Subsidiary shall enter into and consummate the Additional Financing
transaction outlined in the Purchaser Term Sheet.
If the
provisions of the Purchaser Term Sheet are not substantially similar in net
economic effect to the provisions of the Proposed Term Sheet, the Company
and/or
such Subsidiary may enter into and consummate the Additional Financing
transaction outlined in the Proposed Term Sheet.
(b) Subject
to section 6.16 (a) above, the Company will not, and will not permit the

and Reservation of Shares.
The
Company shall at all times have authorized and reserved a sufficient number
of
shares of Common Stock to provide for the conversion of the Note and exercise
of
the Warrants.
7. Covenants
of the Purchaser.
The
Purchaser covenants and agrees with the Company as follows:
7.1 Confidentiality.
The
Purchaser will not disclose, and will not include in any public announcement,
the name of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, unless expressly agreed
to
by the Company or unless and until such disclosure is required by law or
applicable regulation, and then only to the extent of such
requirement.
7.2 Non-Public
Information.
The
Purchaser will not effect any sales in the shares of the Company’s Common Stock
while in possession of material, non-public information regarding the Company
if
such sales would violate applicable securities law.
7.3 Limitation
on Acquisition of Common Stock of the Company.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any
Related Agreement or any document, instrument or agreement entered into in
connection with any other transactions between the Purchaser and the Company,
the Purchaser may not acquire stock in the Company (including, without
limitation, pursuant to a contract to purchase, by exercising an option or
warrant, by converting any other security or instrument, by acquiring or
exercising any other right to acquire, shares of stock or other security
convertible into shares of stock in the Company, or otherwise, and such
contracts, options, warrants, conversion or other rights shall not be
enforceable or exercisable) to the extent such stock acquisition would cause
any
interest (including any original issue discount) payable by the Company to
the
Purchaser not to qualify as “portfolio interest” within the meaning of Section
881(c)(2) of the Code, by reason of Section 881(c)(3) of the Code,
taking
into account the constructive ownership rules under Section 871(h)(3)(C)
of the
Code (the “Stock Acquisition Limitation”). The Stock Acquisition Limitation
shall automatically become null and void without any notice to the Company
upon
the earlier to occur of either (a) the Company’s delivery to the Purchaser of a
Notice of Redemption (as defined in the Note) or (b) the existence of an
Event
of Default (as defined in the Note) at a time when the average closing price
of
the Company’s common stock as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. on the Principal
Market for the immediately preceding five trading days is greater than or
equal
to 150% of the Fixed Conversion Price (as defined in the Note).
The
Note
is intended to be a registered obligation within the meaning of Treasury
Regulation Section 1.871-14(c)(1)(i) and the Company (or its agent) shall
register the Note (and thereafter shall maintain such registration) as to
both
principal and any stated interest. Notwithstanding any document, instrument
or
agreement relating to the Note to the contrary, transfer of the Note (or
the
right to any payments of principal or stated interest thereunder) may only
be
effected by (i) surrender of the Note and either the reissuance by the Company
of the Note to the new holder or the issuance by the Company of a new instrument
to the new holder, or (ii) transfer through a book entry system maintained
by
the Company (or its agent), within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section
1.871-14(c)(1)(i)(B).
8. Covenants
of the Company and the Purchaser Regarding Indemnification.
8.1 Company
Indemnification.
The
Company agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Purchaser,
each of the Purchaser’s officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control
persons, and principal shareholders, against all claims, costs, expenses,
liabilities, obligations, losses or damages (including reasonable legal fees)
of
any nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Purchaser which result, arise
out of
or are based upon: (i) any misrepresentation by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries or breach of any warranty by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
in this Agreement, any other Related Agreement or in any exhibits or schedules
attached hereto or thereto; or (ii) any breach or default in performance
by
Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any covenant or undertaking to be
performed by Company or any of its Subsidiaries hereunder, under any other
Related Agreement or any other agreement entered into by the Company and/or
any
of its Subsidiaries and the Purchaser relating hereto or thereto.
8.2 Purchaser’s
Indemnification.
The
Purchaser agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Company,
each of the Company's Subsidiaries and each of the Company’s or any of its
subsidiary's officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control persons and
principal shareholders, at all times against all claims, costs, expenses,
liabilities, obligations, losses or damages (including reasonable legal fees)
of
any nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Company and/or any of its
Subsidiaries which result, arise out of or are based upon: (i) any
misrepresentation by the Purchaser or breach of any warranty by the Purchaser
in
this Agreement, any other Related Agreement or in any exhibits or schedules
attached hereto or thereto; or (ii) any breach or default in performance
by
the Purchaser of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by the Purchaser
hereunder, under any other Related Agreement or any other agreement entered
into
by the Company and/or ant of its Subsidiaries and the Purchaser relating
hereto
or thereto.
9. Conversion
of Convertible Note.
9.1 Mechanics
of Conversion.
(a) Provided
the Purchaser has notified the Company of the Purchaser’s intention to sell the
Note Shares and the Note Shares are included in an effective registration
statement or are otherwise exempt from registration when sold: (i) upon the
conversion of the Note or part thereof, the Company shall, at its own cost
and
expense, take all necessary action (including the issuance of an opinion
of
counsel reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser following a request by the
Purchaser) to assure that the Company’s transfer agent shall issue shares of the
Company’s Common Stock in the name of the Purchaser (or its nominee) or such
other persons as designated by the Purchaser in accordance with Section 9.1(b)
hereof and in such denominations to be specified representing the number
of Note
Shares issuable upon such conversion; and (ii) the Company warrants
that no
instructions other than these instructions have been or will be given to
the
transfer agent of the Company’s Common Stock and that after the Effectiveness
Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) the Note Shares issued
will be freely transferable subject to the prospectus delivery requirements
of
the Securities Act and the provisions of this Agreement or any other Related
Agreement and will not contain a legend restricting the resale or
transferability of the Note Shares.
(b) The
Purchaser will give notice of its decision to exercise its right to convert
the
Note or part thereof by telecopying or otherwise delivering an executed and
completed notice of the number of shares to be converted to the Company (the
“Notice of Conversion”). The Purchaser will not be required to surrender the
Note until the Purchaser receives a credit to the account of the Purchaser’s
prime broker through the DWAC system (as defined below), representing the
Note
Shares or until the Note has been fully satisfied. Each date on which a Notice
of Conversion is telecopied or delivered to the Company in accordance with
the
provisions hereof shall be deemed a “Conversion Date.” Pursuant to the terms of
the Notice of Conversion, the Company will issue instructions to the transfer
agent accompanied by an opinion of counsel within three (3) business days
of the
date of the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Conversion and shall
cause
the transfer agent to transmit the certificates representing the Note Shares
issued to the Purchaser (or its nominee) by crediting the account of the
Purchaser’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) through its
Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system within three (3) business
days after receipt by the Company of the Notice of Conversion (the “Delivery
Date”).
(c) The
Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Note Shares in the
form
required pursuant to Section 9 hereof beyond the Delivery Date could result
in
economic loss to the Purchaser. In the event that the Company fails to direct
its transfer agent to deliver the Note Shares to the Purchaser via the DWAC
system within the time frame set forth in Section 9.1(b) above and the Note
Shares are not delivered to the Purchaser by the Delivery Date, as compensation
to the Purchaser for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payments to
the
Purchaser for late issuance of the Note Shares in the form required pursuant
to
Section 9 hereof upon conversion of the Note in the amount equal to the greater
of: (i) $500 per business day after the Delivery Date; or (ii) the Purchaser’s
actual damages from such delayed delivery. The Company shall pay any payments
incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand and,
in
the case of actual damages, accompanied by reasonable documentation of the
amount of such damages. Such documentation shall show the number of shares
of
Common Stock the Purchaser is forced to purchase (in an open market transaction)
which the Purchaser anticipated receiving upon such conversion, and shall
be
calculated as the amount by which (A) the Purchaser’s total purchase price
(including customary brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common
Stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate principal and/or interest amount
of
the Note, for which such Conversion Notice was not timely honored.
10. Registration

Rights Granted.
The
Company hereby grants registration rights to the Purchaser pursuant to the

Subsidiaries will, prior to the full repayment or conversion of the Note
(together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees related thereto),
(x)
enter into any equity line of credit agreement or similar agreement or (y)
issue, or enter into any agreement to issue, any securities with a
variable/floating conversion and/or pricing feature which are or could be

conversion or registration) free-trading securities (i.e. common stock subject
to a registration statement).

AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER RELATED AGREEMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED
