Rights.

Securities Act or if the resale of the Shares has been registered under the
Securities Act; (2) there will be no trading by affiliates of the Company
(as
defined in the Securities Act) within thirty
(30)
days of

request, file a registration statement with the SEC to register for immediate
resale pursuant to the Securities Act all Shares then held by the Purchaser
(including any shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares
then held by the Purchaser) (the “Registrable
Securities”). The
Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration
statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as

commercial efforts to keep such registration statement continuously effective
under the Securities Act until the date which is the earlier date of when
(i)
all Registrable Securities have been sold, or (ii) all Registrable Securities

of, or
that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the
market
in the United States for any of the Shares being purchased hereby.
7
(n) Due
Diligence.

diligence review.

Misrepresentations.
The
Company agrees that all materials and information it discloses or otherwise
provides to the Purchaser relating to this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated pursuant to this Agreement are accurate in all material respects
and do not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state
any
material face necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in
light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Violation
of
this clause is and will be considered an event of default permitting the
Purchaser to terminate the Agreement immediately.
(p) Company
Funding Agent.
In the
event the Company has any agreement for compensation with any party to raise
the
funds on behalf of the Company ("Company Funding Agent Agreement"),
the

to,
or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditors rights and remedies
or by
other general principles of equity.
8
(b) Investment
Intent.
The
Purchaser is acquiring the Shares to be purchased by it hereunder, for its
own
account for investment purposes only and not with a view to or for distributing
or reselling such Shares, or any part thereof or interest therein. Purchaser’s
right, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to sell or otherwise
dispose
of all or any part of such Shares shall be in compliance with applicable
federal
and state securities laws.

of Purchaser.
The
Purchaser, either alone or together with its representatives, has such

of
such investment.
(d) Ability
of Purchaser to Bear Risk of Investment.
The
Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Shares
to be
acquired by it hereunder and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete
loss of such investment.
(e) Reliance.
The
Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (i) the Shares being offered
and
sold to it hereunder are being offered and sold without registration under
the
Securities Act in a private placement that is exempt from the registration
provisions of the Securities Act under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act
and
(ii) the availability of such exemption depends in part on, and that the
Company
will rely upon the accuracy and truthfulness of, the foregoing representations
and such Purchaser hereby consents to such reliance.
(f) Regulation
S.
Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (A) the Shares have
not

exemption from registration afforded by Regulation S; and that such Shares

sold or otherwise exchanged unless in compliance with the provisions of
Regulation S and/or pursuant to registration under the Securities Act, or

no
obligation to register the Shares under the Securities Act or any state

registration provisions available.
Purchaser

U.S.
person; (B) no director or executive officer of Purchaser is a national or
citizen of the United States; and (C) it is not otherwise deemed to be a
“U.S.
Person” within the meaning of Regulation S.

pursuant to this Agreement.
Purchaser
is purchasing the Shares for its own account and risk and not for the account
or
benefit of a U.S. Person as defined in Regulation S and no other person has
any
interest in or participation in the Shares or any right, option, security
interest, pledge or other interest in or to the Shares. Purchaser understands,
acknowledges and agrees that it must bear the economic risk of its investment
in
the Shares for an indefinite period of time and that prior to any such offer
or
sale, the Company may require, as a condition to effecting a transfer of
the
Shares, an opinion of counsel, acceptable to the
Company,
as to
the registration or exemption therefrom under the Securities Act and any
state
securities acts, if applicable.
9
Purchaser
will, after the expiration of the Restricted Period, as set forth under
Regulation S Rule 903(b) (3) (iii) (A), offer, sell, pledge or otherwise
transfer the Shares only in accordance with Regulation S, or pursuant to
an
available exemption under the Securities Act and, in any case, in accordance
with applicable state securities laws or following the effective date of
a
Registration of the Shares by the Company. The transactions contemplated
by this
Agreement have neither been pre-arranged with a purchaser who is in the U.S.
or
who is a U.S. Person, nor are they part of a plan or scheme to evade the
registration provisions of the United States federal securities
laws.
The
offer
leading to the sale evidenced hereby was made in an “offshore transaction.” For
purposes of Regulation S, Purchaser understands that an “offshore transaction”
as defined under Regulation S is any offer or sale not made to a person in
the
United States and either (A) at the time the buy order is originated, the
purchaser is outside the United States, or the seller or any person acting
on
his behalf reasonably believes that the purchaser is outside the United States;
or (B) for purposes of (1) Rule 903 of Regulation S, the transaction is executed
in, or on or through a physical trading floor of an established foreign exchange
that is located outside the United States or (2) Rule 904 of Regulation S,
the
transaction is executed in, on or through the facilities of a designated
offshore securities market, and neither the seller nor any person acting
on its
behalf knows that the transaction has been prearranged with a buyer in the
U.S.
Neither
the
Purchaser
nor any
affiliate or any person acting on the
Purchaser's
behalf,
has made or is aware of any “directed selling efforts” in the United States,
which is defined in Regulation S to be any activity undertaken for the purpose
of, or that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning
the
market in the United States for any of the Shares being purchased
hereby.
Purchaser
understands that the Company is the seller of the Shares which are the subject
of this Agreement, and that, for purpose of Regulation S, a “distributor” is any
underwriter, dealer or other person who participates, pursuant to a contractual
arrangement, in the distribution of securities offered or sold in reliance
on
Regulation S and that an “affiliate” is any partner, officer, director or any
person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common
control
with any person in question. Purchaser agrees that Purchaser will not, during
the Restricted Period set forth under Rule 903(b)(iii)(A), act as a distributor,
either directly or through any affiliate, nor shall it sell, transfer,
hypothecate or otherwise convey the Shares other than to a non-U.S. Person.
Purchaser
acknowledges that the Shares will bear a legend in the following
form:
THE
SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN OFFERED AND SOLD IN
AN
“OFFSHORE TRANSACTION” IN RELIANCE UPON REGULATION S AS PROMULGATED BY THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. ACCORDINGLY, THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED
BY

(a) Indemnification
(i) The
Company shall, notwithstanding termination of this Agreement and without
limitation as to time, indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and its
officers, directors, agents, employees and affiliates, each Person who controls
or
the
Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section
20
of the Exchange Act) (each such Person, a “Control
Person”)
and
the officers, directors, agents, employees and affiliates of each such Control
Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against
any
and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without
limitation, costs of preparation and attorneys’ fees) and expenses
(collectively, “Losses”),
as
incurred, arising out of, or relating to, a breach or breaches of any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement by the Company under this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document.
(ii) The
Purchaser shall, notwithstanding termination of this Agreement and without
limitation as to time, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers,
directors, agents and employees, each Control Person and the officers,
directors, agents and employees of each Control Person, to the fullest extent
permitted by application law, from and against any and all Losses, as incurred,
arising out of, or relating to, a breach or breaches of any representation,
warranty, covenant or agreement by the Purchaser under this Agreement or
any
other
Transaction Document.
12
(b) Conduct
of Indemnification Proceedings.
If any
Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity
hereunder (an “Indemnified
Party”),
such
Indemnified Party promptly shall notify the Person from whom indemnity is
sought
(the “Indemnifying
Party”)
in
writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including
the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party
and
the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense
thereof; provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such
notice
shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities
pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall
be
finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination
is
not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have
proximately and materially adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying
Party.
An
Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any
such
Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses
of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties
unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed to pay such fees and expenses;
or
(2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense
of
such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any
such
Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified
Party
and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised
by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel
were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which
case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing
that
it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party,
the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of
the
claim against the Indemnified Party but will retain the right to control
the
overall Proceedings out of which the claim arose and such counsel employed
by
the Indemnified Party shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party).
The
Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding
affected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent
of the
Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect
of
which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims
that are the subject matter of such Proceeding.
All
fees
and expenses of the Indemnified Party to which the Indemnified Party is entitled
hereunder (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred
in
connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a
manner
not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party,
as
incurred, within ten (10) Business Days of written notice thereof to the
Indemnifying Party.
13
No
right
of indemnification under this Section shall be available as to a particular
Indemnified Party if there is a non-appealable final judicial determination
that
such Losses arise solely out of the negligence or bad faith of such Indemnified
Party in performing the obligations of such Indemnified Party under this
Agreement or a breach by such Indemnified Party of its obligations under
this
Agreement.
(c) Non-Exclusivity.
The
indemnity and agreements contained in this Section are in addition to any
obligation or liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the
Indemnified Parties.

enforceable provision which shall be a reasonable substitute therefore, and
upon
so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this
Agreement.

Without
regard to any other terms in this agreement, in the event that the transactions
