2. PURCHASE AND SALE OF COMMON STOCK
a. Purchase and Sale of Common Stock. Subject to the terms
and conditions set forth herein, the Company shall issue and sell to the
Investor, and the Investor shall purchase from the Company, up to that
number of Shares having an aggregate Purchase Price of $5,000,000.
b. Delivery of Put Notices. (i) Subject to the terms
and conditions of the Transaction Documents, and from time to time during
the Open Period, the Company may, in its sole discretion, deliver a Put Notice
to the Investor which states the Put Amount (designated in shares of Common
Stock) which the Company intends to sell to the Investor on a Closing Date.
The Put Notice shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit "F" and
incorporated herein by reference. The Put Amount designated by the Company
in the form of a Put Notice shall be as follows:
The amount that the Company shall be entitled to Put to the
Investor shall be equal to, at the Company's election, either: a) 200% of the
average daily volume (U.S. market only) of the Common Stock for the 10 (ten)
Trading Days prior to the applicable Put Notice Date multiplied by the average
of the three (3) daily closing best bid prices immediately preceding the Put
Date, or b) $50,000. In no event shall the amount of the Put be more
than $1,000,000.
During the Open Period, the Company shall not be entitled to
submit a Put Notice until after the previous Closing has been completed. The
Purchase Price for the Common Stock identified in the Put Notice shall be
equal to 94% (ninety-four percent) of the three lowest closing best bid
prices of the Common Stock during the Pricing Period.
(ii) If the closing best bid price during the applicable
Pricing Period with respect to that Put Notice is less than 75% (seventy-five
percent) of the closing best bid prices of the Common Stock for the ten (10)
Trading Days prior to the Put Notice Date ("MINIMUM ACCEPTABLE PRICE") the
Put Notice will terminate, only at the Company's request, sent via FACSIMILE
to the Investor, the Investor will continue the Put until the FACSIMILE is
received by the Investor. In the event that the closing best bid price for
the applicable Pricing Period is less than the Minimum Acceptable Price, the
Company may elect, by sending written notice to the Investor via facsimile
with a copy to the Investor, to cancel that portion of the Put Notice remaining
for that number of Trading Days remaining after the written cancellation
notice is received by the Investors. The written notice shall be deemed
5
received by the Investors on (i) the Trading Day it is actually received by
facsimile if such notice is received on or prior to 9:00 A.M. New York time,
or (ii) the immediately succeeding Trading Day if it is received by facsimile
after 9:00 A.M. New York time on a Trading Day or at anytime on a day which
is not a Trading Day. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there shall be a closing
with respect to, and the Company shall be responsible for delivering, that
number of shares of Common Stock to the Company that were sold by the Investors
through and including the end of the Trading Day the written cancellation
notice is received by the Investor.
(iii) Within Thirteen (13) calendar days after the commencement
of each calendar quarter occurring subsequent to the commencement of the Open
Period, the Company undertakes to notify Investor as to its reasonable
expectations as to the Put Amount it intends to raise during such calendar
quarter, if any, through the issuance of Put Notices. Such notification shall
constitute only the Company's good faith estimate with respect to such calendar
quarter and shall in no way obligate the Company to raise such amount during
such calendar quarter or otherwise limit its ability to deliver Put Notices
during such calendar quarter. The failure by the Company to comply with this
provision can be cured by the Company's notifying Investor at any time as to
its reasonable expectations with respect to the current calendar quarter.
c. Interest. It is the intention of the parties that any interest
that may be deemed to be payable under this Agreement shall not exceed the
maximum amount permitted under any applicable law. If a law, which applies to
this Agreement which sets the maximum interest amount, is finally interpreted
so that the interest in connection with this Agreement exceeds the permitted
limits, then: (1) any such interest shall be reduced by the amount necessary
to reduce the interest to the legally permitted limit; and (2) any sums already
collected (if any) from the Company which exceed the legally permitted limits
will be refunded to the Company. The Investor may choose to make this refund
by reducing the amount that the Company owes under this Agreement or by making
a direct payment to the Company. If a refund reduces the amount that the
Company owes the Investor, the reduction will be treated as a partial payment.
In case any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be excessive in scope or otherwise invalid or unenforceable,
such provision shall be adjusted rather than voided, if possible, so that it
is enforceable to the maximum extent possible, and the validity and
enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement will not in any
way be affected or impaired thereby.
d. reserved.
e. Limitation on Investor's Obligation to Purchase Shares.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall
the Investor be required to purchase, and the Company shall in no event sell
to the Investor, that number of Shares, which when added to the sum of the
number of Shares "beneficially owned" (as such term is defined under
Section 13(d) and Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as may
be amended, (the "1934 ACT")), by the Investor, would exceed 4.99% of the
6
number of Shares outstanding on the Put Notice Date for such Pricing Period,
as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-1(j) promulgated under the 1934 Act.
In no event shall the Investor purchase Shares other than pursuant to this
Agreement until such date as this Agreement is terminated. Each Put Notice
shall include a representation of the Company as to the number of Shares
outstanding on the related Put Notice Date. In the event that the number of
Shares outstanding is different on any date during a Pricing Period than the
number of Shares outstanding on the Put Notice Date associated with such
Pricing Period, then the number of Shares outstanding on such date during such
Pricing Period shall govern for purposes of determining whether the Investor
would be acquiring beneficial ownership of more than 4.99% of the number of
Shares outstanding during such period.
f. Conditions to Investor's Obligation to Purchase Shares.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall
not be entitled to deliver a Put Notice and the Investor shall not be obligated
to purchase any Shares at a Closing (as defined in Section 2(h)) unless each
of the following conditions are satisfied:
(i) a Registration Statement shall have been declared effective
and shall remain effective and available for the resale of all
the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration
Rights Agreement) at all times until the Closing with respect
to the subject Put Notice;
(ii) at all times during the period beginning on the related
Put Notice Date and ending on and including the related
Closing Date, the Common Stock shall have been listed on the
Principal Market and shall not have been suspended from
trading thereon for a period of five (5) consecutive Trading
Days during the Open Period and the Company shall not have
been notified of any pending or threatened proceeding or
other action to delist or suspend the Common Stock;
(iii) the Company has complied with its obligations and is
otherwise not in breach of a material provision of, or in
default under, this Agreement, the Registration Rights
Agreement or any other agreement executed in connection
herewith which has not been corrected prior to delivery of
the Put Notice Date; with the exception of immaterial breach
or noncompliance that does not adversely affect parties to
this agreement.
(iv) no injunction shall have been issued and remain in force,
or action commenced by a governmental authority which has not
been stayed or abandoned, prohibiting the purchase or the
issuance of the Securities; and
(v) the issuance of the Securities will not violate the
shareholder approval requirements of the Principal Market.
If any of the events described in clauses (i) through (v) above
occurs during a Pricing Period, then the Investor shall have
no obligation to purchase the Put Amount of Common Stock set
forth in the applicable Put Notice.
7
g. For purposes of this Agreement, a "MAJOR TRANSACTION" shall be
deemed to have occurred upon the closing of any of the following events: (i)
the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Company with or
into another person (other than pursuant to a migratory merger effected solely
for the purposes of changing the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company
or other than a transaction in which the Company is the surviving corporation)
(ii) the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the Company's assets;
or (iii) the consummation of a purchase, tender or exchange offer made to, and
accepted by, the holders of more than 30% of the economic interest in, or the
combined voting power of all classes of voting stock of, the Company.
h. Mechanics of Purchase of Shares by Investor. Subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 2(f), 7 and 8, the closing
of the purchase by the Investor of Shares (a "CLOSING") shall occur on the date
which is no later than Seven (7) Trading Days following the applicable Put
Notice Date (each a "CLOSING DATE"). Prior to each Closing Date, (i) the
Company shall deliver to the Investor, certificates representing the Shares to
be issued to the Investor on such date and registered in the name of the
Investor and (ii) the Investor shall deliver to the Company the Purchase Price
to be paid for such Shares, determined as set forth in Section 2(b) and (d), by
wire transfer. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the
Securities and provided that the Company's transfer agent then is participating
in The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer
("FAST") program, upon request of the Investor, the Company shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically
transmit the Securities by crediting the account of the Investor's prime
broker (which shall be specified by the Investor a reasonably sufficient
time in advance) with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission
("DWAC") system.
The Company understands that a delay in the issuance of Securities
beyond the Closing Date could result in economic loss to the Investor. After
the Effective Date, as compensation to the Investor for such loss, the Company
agrees to pay late payments to the Investor for late issuance of Securities
(delivery of Securities after the applicable Closing Date) in accordance
with the following schedule (where "No. of Days Late" is defined as the number
of days beyond the Closing Date):
Late Payment For Each
No. of Days Late $10,000 of Common Stock
2 $ 200
3 $ 300
4 $ 400
5 $ 500
6 $ 600
7 $ 700
8 $ 800
9 $ 900
10 $1,000
Over 10 $1,000 + $200 for each
Business Day late beyond 10
8
The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately
available funds upon demand. Nothing herein shall limit the Investor's right
to pursue actual damages for the Company's failure to issue and deliver the
Securities to the Investor, except to the extent that such late payments shall
constitute payment for and offset any such actual damages alleged by the
Investor, and any Buy In Adjustment Amount.
i Reserved.
j. Overall Limit on Common Stock Issuable. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, if during the Open Period the Company becomes
listed on an exchange that limits the number of shares of Common Stock that may
be issued without shareholder approval, then the number of Shares issuable by
the Company and purchasable by the Investor, including the shares of Common
Stock issuable to the Investors pursuant to Section 11(b), shall not exceed
that number of the shares of Common Stock that may be issuable without
shareholder approval, subject to appropriate adjustment for stock splits,
stock dividends, combinations or other similar recapitalization affecting
the Common Stock (the "MAXIMUM COMMON STOCK ISSUANCE"), unless the issuance
of Shares, including any Common Stock to be issued to the Investors pursuant
9
to Section 11(b), in excess of the Maximum Common Stock Issuance shall first
be approved by the Company's shareholders in accordance with applicable law
and the By-laws and Articles of Incorporation of the Company, if such issuance
of shares of Common Stock could cause a delisting on the Principal Market.
The parties understand and agree that the Company's failure to seek or obtain
such shareholder approval shall in no way adversely affect the validity and
due authorization of the issuance and sale of Securities or the Investor's
obligation in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof to purchase a
number of Shares in the aggregate up to the Maximum Common Stock Issuance
limitation, and that such approval pertains only to the applicability of the
Maximum Common Stock Issuance limitation provided in this Section 2(j).

actions at any time during a "Pricing Period":

for Common Stock ("Convertible Securities") and the
consideration per share for which shares of Common
Stock may at any time thereafter be issuable pursuant
to the terms of such Convertible Securities shall be

prior to such issuance of the Convertible Securities;
(v) issues shares of Common Stock otherwise than as provided
in the foregoing subsections (i) through (iv), at a
price per share less, or for other consideration lower,
than the Best bid Price in effect immediately prior to
such issuance, or without consideration;

indebtedness to the holders of Common Stock as a
dividend in liquidation or by way of return of capital
or other than as a dividend payable out of earnings or

d. Issuance of Shares. A sufficient number of Shares issuable
pursuant to this Agreement has been duly authorized and reserved for issuance
(subject to adjustment pursuant to the Company's covenant set forth in
Section 5(f) below) pursuant to this Agreement. Upon issuance in accordance
with this Agreement, the Securities will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the
issue thereof. In the event the Company cannot register a sufficient number
of Shares, due to the remaining number of authorized shares of Common Stock
being insufficient, the Company will use its best efforts to register the
maximum number of shares it can based on the remaining balance of authorized
shares and will use its best efforts to increase the number of its authorized
shares as soon as reasonably practicable.

violation of the Articles of Incorporation, any Certificate of Designations,
Preferences and Rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock of the
Company or the By-laws or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a material default
(or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a

indenture, instrument, judgment, decree or order or any statute, rule or
regulation applicable to the Company or its Subsidiaries, except for
possible conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, accelerations,
cancellations and violations that would not individually or in the aggregate
have a Material Adverse Effect. The business of the Company and its
Subsidiaries is not being conducted, and shall not be conducted, in violation

notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such
certificate, approval, authorization or permit, except for such certificates,
approvals, authorizations or permits which if not obtained, or such revocations

19
q. Internal Accounting Controls. The Company and each of its
Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to

understand the nature of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
recognize that they have a potential dilutive effect. The board of directors
of the Company has concluded, in its good faith business judgment, that such
issuance is in the best interests of the Company. The Company specifically
acknowledges that, subject to such limitations as are expressly set forth in

indirectly, without the prior written consent of Investor, which will not be
unreasonably withheld, offer, sell, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise

other disposition) any of its Common Stock or securities convertible into
Common Stock at a price that is less than the market price of the Common Stock
at the time of issuance of such security or investment
(a "SUBSEQUENT FINANCING") for a period of one year after the Effective Date,
except (i) the granting of options or warrants to employees, officers,
directors and consultants, and the issuance of shares upon exercise of options
granted, under any stock option plan heretofore or hereafter duly adopted by
the Company, (ii) shares issued upon exercise of any currently outstanding
warrants or options and upon conversion of any currently outstanding
convertible debenture or convertible preferred stock, in each case disclosed
pursuant to Section 4(c), (iii) securities issued in connection with the
capitalization or creation of a joint venture with a strategic partner, (iv)
shares issued to pay part or all of the purchase price for the acquisition
by the Company of another entity (which, for purposes of this clause (iv),

issued in a bona fide public offering by the Company of its securities,
unless (A) the Company delivers to Investor a written notice (the "SUBSEQUENT
FINANCING NOTICE") of its intention to effect such Subsequent Financing, which
Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed
terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of proceeds intended to be
raised thereunder, the person with whom such Subsequent Financing shall be
effected, and attached to which shall be a term sheet or similar document
relating thereto and (B) Investor shall not have notified the Company by
5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth (5th) Trading Day after its receipt
of the Subsequent Financing Notice of its willingness to provide, subject to
completion of mutually acceptable documentation, financing to the Company on
substantially the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice,
(vi) to enter into a loan, credit or leas facility with a bank or other
financing institution. If Investor shall fail to notify the Company of
its intention to enter into such negotiations within such time period,
then the Company may effect the Subsequent Financing substantially upon
the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice; PROVIDED THAT the
Company shall provide Investor with a second Subsequent Financing Notice,
and Investor shall again have the right of first refusal set forth above
in this Section, if the Subsequent Financing subject to the initial
Subsequent Financing Notice shall not have been consummated for any
reason on the terms set forth in such Subsequent Financing Notice within
thirty (30) Trading Days after the date of the initial Subsequent Financing

disclosed on Schedule 4(c).

The "Buy-In Adjustment Amount" is the amount equal to the excess, if any, of
(a) the Investor's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if
any) for the Covering Shares over (b) the net proceeds (after brokerage
commissions, if any) received by the Investor from the sale of the Sold
Shares. The Company shall pay the Buy-In Adjustment Amount to the Investor
in immediately available funds immediately upon demand by the Investor. By
way of illustration and not in limitation of the foregoing, if the Investor
purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price (including brokerage
commissions) of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to the Common Stock it
sold for net proceeds of $10,000, the Buy-In Adjustment Amount which the
Company will be required to pay to the Investor will be $1,000.
