For purposes of this Agreement, the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series F Preferred Stock are referred to as the “Conversion Shares.” The Company has authorized and reserved, and covenants to continue to reserve, a sufficient number of shares of its Common Stock necessary to satisfy the rights of conversion of the holders of Series F Preferred Stock as set forth in Exhibit B.

1.3 Closing. The closing of the purchase and sale of the Series F Preferred Stock under Section 1.2 hereof (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxxx, LLP (“Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx”), 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxxx, at 10:00 a.m. local time on December 23, 2010, or at such other time and place as shall be agreed upon by the Company and the Investor (the “Closing Date”).

1.4 Use of Proceeds by the Company from the Closings. The Company covenants and agrees with the Investor that it shall use the proceeds from the sale of Series F Preferred Stock hereunder to pay all transaction fees incurred by the Company and the Investor in connection with the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and to fund the Company’s working capital needs; provided, however, that none of such proceeds shall be used to repay any indebtedness or other obligations of the Company.

2.2 Authorization and Non-Contravention. The Company is not in violation of any term or provision of any agreement, instrument, judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or government regulation applicable to it or to which it is a party, except where such violations could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

3

2.5 Subsidiaries; Investments. Except as disclosed in Section 2.5 of the Disclosure Schedule, the Company does not have and has not had any Subsidiaries. Except as disclosed in Section 2.5 of the Disclosure Schedule, the Company has no written agreement in respect of any strategic partnership or similar relationship (including any agreement providing for notice of, or providing rights in respect of, any change in control or acquisition of the Company or its assets) and does not own or have any direct or indirect interest in or control over any corporation, partnership, joint venture or other entity of any kind. The term “control” shall mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.
2.6 Financial Statements. The Company has made available to the Investor the audited balance sheets of the Company dated as of December 31, 2009 and unaudited balance sheets dated as of September 30, 2010 (such September 30, 2010 balance sheet is hereinafter referred to as the “Base Balance Sheet”) and the related statements of income for the fiscal periods then ended, all of which statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) consistently applied during the periods covered thereby, except for the absence of footnote disclosures and any year-end audit adjustments, and fairly present the financial condition of the Company in all material respects on the date of such statements and the results of their operations for the period covered thereby. Nothing has come to the attention of the Company since the date of the Base Balance Sheet which would indicate that such financial statements were not true and representative of the Company’s financial position as of the date thereof.
2.7 Absence of Certain Developments. Except as set forth in Section 2.7 of the Disclosure Schedule, since the date of the Base Balance Sheet, there has been: (i) no change in the properties, assets, liabilities, business condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or results of operations of the Company except for changes in the ordinary course that, in the aggregate, have not been materially adverse; (ii) no declaration, setting aside or payment of any dividend or other distribution with respect to, or any direct or indirect redemption or acquisition of, any capital stock of the Company; (iii) no waiver of any valuable right of the Company or cancellation of any debt or claim held by the Company; (iv) no loan by the Company to any officer, director, employee or stockholder of the Company, or any agreement or commitment therefor; (v) no increase, direct or indirect, in the compensation paid or payable to any officer, director, employee, consultant, agent or stockholder of the Company (other than salary increases in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice which, individually or in the aggregate, are not material); (vi) no material loss, destruction or damage to any property of the
6
Company, whether or not insured; (vii) no change in the senior management or other key personnel of the Company or the terms and conditions of their employment; (viii) no acquisition or disposition of any material assets (or any contract or arrangement therefor) nor any other material transaction by the Company otherwise than for fair value in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice; or (ix) no any agreement or understanding, whether in writing or otherwise, for the Company to take any of the actions specified in clauses (i) through (viii).
2.8 Absence of Undisclosed Liabilities. The Company does not have any material liabilities or obligations, whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise, asserted or unasserted (including, without limitation, liabilities as guarantor or otherwise with respect to obligations of others, or liabilities for Taxes due or then accrued or to become due, regardless of whether claims in respect thereof had been asserted as of such date), except liabilities or obligations (i) stated or adequately reserved against in the Base Balance Sheet, (ii) incurred since the date of the Base Balance Sheet in the ordinary course of business that in the aggregate are not material or (iii) disclosed in Section 2.8 of the Disclosure Schedule.
2.9 Accounts Payable. Except as set forth in Section 2.9 of the Disclosure Schedule, all accounts payable of the Company arose in bona fide arms’ length transactions in the ordinary course of business and no account payable is delinquent by more than sixty (60) days in its payment. Since the date of the Base Balance Sheet, the Company has paid its accounts payable in the ordinary course and in a manner which is consistent with its past practices. As of the date hereof, to the Company’s knowledge, the Company has no account payable to any Person (other than accounts payable in the ordinary course of business which are not material in the aggregate) which is an Affiliate of the Company or any of its directors, officers, employees or stockholders, except as set forth in Section 2.9 of the Disclosure Schedule.
2.10 Accounts Receivable. All of the accounts receivable of the Company arose in bona fide arms’ length transactions in the ordinary course of business, are valid and enforceable claims, are not subject to any known set-off or counterclaim, and, to the Company’s knowledge, are fully collectible in the normal course of business, after deducting the allowance for doubtful accounts stated in the Base Balance Sheet in accordance with GAAP. Except as set forth in Section 2.10 of the Disclosure Schedule, as of the date hereof, the Company does not have any accounts receivable from any Person which is known by the Company to be an Affiliate of the Company or any of its directors, officers, employees or stockholders.
2.11 Transactions with Affiliates. Except for their ongoing, regular employment relationships with the Company and as set forth in Section 2.11 of the Disclosure Schedule, there are no loans, leases, agreements, arrangements or other transactions or continuing transactions between the Company and any present or former stockholder, director, officer or employee of the Company, or any member of such officer’s, director’s, employee’s or stockholder’s immediate family, or any Person controlled by such officer, director, employee or stockholder or his or her immediate family. Except as set forth in Section 2.11 of the Disclosure Schedule, to the Company’s knowledge, no stockholder, director, officer or employee of the Company or any of their respective spouses or family members, owns directly or indirectly on an individual or joint basis any interest in, or serves as an officer or director or in another similar capacity of, any competitor, customer, distributor, vendor or supplier of the Company or any
7
organization which has a contract or arrangement with the Company, except for passive investments of less than 2% in publicly-traded companies.
2.12 Title to Properties. Section 2.12 of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth the addresses and uses of all real property that the Company owns, leases or subleases. The Company has good, valid and (if applicable) marketable title to all of its assets, free and clear of all Liens, restrictions or encumbrances, and none of such assets is subject to any mortgage, pledge, Lien or conditional sale agreement, except such encumbrances and Liens that arise in the ordinary course of business and do not have a Material Adverse Effect. Such assets constitute all property which is necessary to the business of the Company as currently conducted or as proposed to be conducted and all equipment included therein is in good condition and repair (ordinary wear and tear excepted) and all leases of real or personal property to which the Company is a party are fully effective and afford the Company peaceful possession of the subject matter of such leases and true and complete copies thereof have been delivered to the Investor or their counsel. To the Company’s knowledge, the Company is not in violation of any zoning, building or safety ordinance, regulation or requirement or other law or regulation applicable to the operation of its owned or leased properties which violation would have a Material Adverse Effect, nor has it received any notice of such violation. There are no defaults by the Company or, to the Company’s knowledge, by any other party which might curtail in any material respect the present use of the property of the Company. The performance by the Company of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby will not result in the termination of, or in any increase of any amounts payable under, any of its leases for real property or material leases for personal property or will require the consent or approval from any other party to such leases.
2.13 Tax Matters. The Company has timely and properly filed all federal, state, local and foreign tax returns required to be filed by it through the date hereof, which returns were true, correct and complete in all material respects and has paid or caused to be paid all Taxes required to be paid by it through the date hereof (whether or not shown on a tax return), except Taxes which are the subject of a good faith dispute for which adequate reserves have been established and are reflected on the Base Balance Sheet. All Taxes and other assessments and levies which the Company was or is required to withhold or collect have been timely withheld and collected and have been paid over to the proper governmental authorities. Except as set forth in Section 2.13 of the Disclosure Schedule, (i) the Company has never received written notice of any audit or of any proposed deficiencies from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or any other taxing authority (other than routine audits undertaken in the ordinary course and which have been resolved on or prior to the date hereof); (ii) there are in effect no waivers of applicable statutes of limitations with respect to any Taxes owed by the Company for any year; (iii) neither the IRS nor any other taxing authority is now asserting, or to the Company’s knowledge, threatening to assert against the Company any deficiency or claim for additional Taxes or interest thereon or penalties in connection therewith in respect of the income or sales of the Company; and (iv) the Company has never been a member of an affiliated group of corporations filing a combined federal income Tax return nor does the Company have any liability for Taxes of any other Person under Treasury Regulations §1.1502.6 (or any similar provision of foreign, state or local law) or otherwise.

6.2 Indemnification for Vicarious Liability.
(a) Without limitation of any other provision of this Agreement, the Company agrees to defend, indemnify and hold the Investor who may be deemed to control the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, their affiliates and their respective direct and indirect partners, members, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” and each individually, an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, obligations, liens, assessments, judgments, fines, liabilities and other costs and expenses, including, without limitation, interest, penalties and any investigation, legal and other
32
expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted, as the same are actually incurred by the Indemnified Parties, of any kind or nature whatsoever (collectively “Losses”) which may be sustained or suffered by any such Indemnified Party, in their capacity as or as a result of any action taken or omitted to be taken by them as a director, stockholder, representative or controlling person of the Company, without regard to any investigation by any of the Indemnified Parties, based upon, arising out of, by reason of or otherwise in respect of or in connection with third party or governmental claims under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise (“Laws”), including, without limitation, any third party or governmental claim alleging so-called control person liability or securities law liability; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable to the extent that such Loss arises from and is based on (A) an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission in a registration statement or prospectus which is made in reliance on and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company in an instrument duly executed by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party specifically stating that it is for use in the preparation thereof, (B) a knowing and willful violation of any Law or Laws by an Indemnified Party, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or (C) a fraudulent act or omission by the Indemnified Party as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
(b) If the indemnification provided for in Section 6.2(a) above for any reason (other than for any reason specified in items (A), (B), and (C) of the proviso in Section 6.2(a)) is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses referred to therein, then the Company, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Indemnified Parties, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Indemnified Parties in connection with the action or inaction which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. In connection with any registration of the Company’s securities, the relative benefits received by the Company and the Indemnified Parties shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions that the net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the Indemnified Parties, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the applicable prospectus, bear to the aggregate public offering price of the securities so offered. The relative fault of the Company and the Indemnified Parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company and the Indemnified Parties and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
Each of the Company and the Indemnified Parties agrees that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6.2(b) were determined by pro rata or per capita allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. In connection with the registration of the Company’s securities, in no event shall the Investor be required to contribute any amount under this Section 6.2(b) in excess of the lesser of (i) that proportion of
33
the total of such Losses indemnified against equal to the proportion of the total securities sold under such registration statement which is being sold by the Investor, or (ii) the proceeds received by the Investor from its sale of securities under such registration statement. No person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not found guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
(c) The indemnification and contribution provided for in this Section 6.2 will remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Parties or any officer, director, partner, member, employee, agent or controlling person of the Indemnified Parties. The provisions of this Section 6.2 are in addition to and shall supplement those set forth in any other agreement between the Company and the Indemnified Parties.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company agrees to pay and hold the Investor harmless against liability for payment of all reasonable fees and disbursement of counsel in connection with the enforcement, amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement and the agreements, documents and instruments contemplated and executed pursuant hereto.
6.3 Attorneys’ Fees. In the event that any suit or action is instituted to enforce any provision in this Agreement, the prevailing party in such dispute shall be entitled to recover from the losing party all fees, costs and expenses of enforcing any right of such prevailing party under or with respect to this Agreement and the agreements, documents and instruments contemplated hereby and executed pursuant hereto, including without limitation, such reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and accountants, which shall include, without limitation, all fees, costs and expenses of appeals.

8.7 Dispute Resolution.
(a) All disputes, claims, or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other agreement executed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement or the negotiation, validity or performance hereof and thereof or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby that are not resolved by mutual agreement shall be resolved solely and exclusively by binding arbitration to be conducted before the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). If AAA ceases operations, then the parties shall select a comparable organization that provides qualified arbitration services. The arbitration shall be held in Boston, Massachusetts before a single arbitrator and shall be conducted in accordance with the rules and regulations promulgated by AAA unless specifically modified herein.
The parties covenant and agree that the arbitration hearing shall commence within ninety (90) days of the date on which a written demand for arbitration is filed by any party hereto. In connection with the arbitration proceeding, the arbitrator shall have the power to order the production of documents by each party and any third-party witnesses. In addition, each party may take up to three depositions as of right, and the arbitrator may in his or her discretion allow additional depositions upon good cause shown by the moving party. However, the arbitrator shall not have the power to order the answering of interrogatories or the response to requests for admission. In connection with any arbitration, each party shall provide to the other, no later than seven (7) business days before the date of the arbitration hearing, the identity of all persons that may testify at the arbitration and a copy of all documents that may be introduced at the arbitration hearing or considered or used by a party’s witness or expert. The arbitrator’s decision and award shall be made and delivered within three (3) months of the selection of the arbitrator. The arbitrator’s decision shall set forth a reasoned basis for any finding of liability or award of damages. The arbitrator shall not have power to award damages in excess of actual
39
compensatory damages and shall not multiply actual damages or award punitive damages or any other damages that are specifically excluded under this Agreement, and each party hereby irrevocably waives any claim to such damages.
The parties covenant and agree that they will participate in the arbitration in good faith and that they will share equally its costs, except as otherwise provided herein. The arbitrator may in his or her discretion assess costs and expenses (including the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the prevailing party whether claimant or respondent) against any party to a proceeding. Any party failing or refusing to comply with an order of the arbitrators shall be liable for costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the other party in enforcing the award. Nothing in this Section 8.7 shall prohibit any party from proceeding in court without prior arbitration for the limited purpose of seeking a temporary or permanent injunction to avoid immediate and irreparable harm. The provisions of this Section 8.7 shall be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Unless otherwise ordered, the parties shall bear their own attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses in connection with the arbitration. The parties will share equally in the fees and expenses charged by AAA.
(b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally consents to the exclusive use of AAA to resolve all disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other agreement executed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement or the negotiation, validity or performance hereof and thereof or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and further consents to the jurisdiction of the courts of the Massachusetts for the purposes of enforcing the arbitration provisions of Section 8.7(a) of this Agreement. Each party further irrevocably waives any objection to proceeding before AAA based upon lack of personal jurisdiction or to the laying of venue and further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to make a claim in any court that arbitration before AAA has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each of the parties hereto hereby consents to service of process by registered mail at the address to which notices are to be given. Each of the parties hereto agrees that its or his submission to jurisdiction and its or his consent to service of process by mail is made for the express benefit of the other parties hereto.
(c) Remedies; Severability. Notwithstanding Section 8.7, it is specifically understood and agreed that any breach of the provisions of this Agreement by any Person subject hereto will result in irreparable injury to the other parties hereto, that the remedy at law alone will be an inadequate remedy for such breach, and that, in addition to any other remedies which they may have, such other parties may enforce their respective rights by actions for specific performance (to the extent permitted by law). The Company may refuse to recognize any unauthorized transferee as one of its stockholders for any purpose, including, without limitation, for purposes of dividend and voting rights, until the relevant party or parties have complied with all applicable provisions of this Agreement, the Stockholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed prohibited or invalid under such applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, and such
40
prohibition or invalidity shall not invalidate the remainder of such provision or the other provisions of this Agreement.
8.8 Assignment. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors and assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto; provided that, the Company may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder to any party without the written consent of the Investor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other agreement referred to herein, an Investor may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to any Affiliate of such Investor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all representations, covenants and agreements benefiting the Investor shall inure to the benefit of any and all subsequent holders from time to time of the Series F Preferred Stock or Conversion Shares.
8.9 Expenses. Within five (5) days following the Closing, the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of Xxxxxxx XxXxxxxxx LLP, counsel for the Investor in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in an amount not to exceed, in the aggregate, $15,000.
