To the Knowledge of the Company, none of such persons has any direct or indirect ownership interest in any Person with which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is affiliated or with which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has a business relationship, or any Person that competes with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except employees, officers, shareholders or directors of the Company or its Subsidiaries and members of their immediate families who own 5% or less of the outstanding capital stock of any publicly traded company. To the Knowledge of the Company, no officer, shareholder or director of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any member of his or her immediate family, is, directly or indirectly, a party to any material Contract with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than such Contracts as relate to any such person’s employment or ownership of capital stock of the Company).

7.22. Accounts Receivable. All accounts receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries are valid, genuine and subsisting and have arisen from bona fide transactions in the

ordinary course of business or other arm’s-length transactions. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts as reflected in the financial statements set forth in Schedule 7.5 is reasonable in accordance with GAAP as in effect for the periods to which such financial statements relate.

7.23. Investment Company. The Company is not an “investment company” or an “affiliated person” of, or “promoter” or “principal underwriter” for, an “investment company,” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, nor is the Company, directly or indirectly, controlled by or acting on behalf of any Person that is an “investment company” within the meaning of such act.

7.24. Real Property Holding Corporation. The Company is not a “United States real property holding corporation” within the meaning of Section 897(c)(2) of the Code and any regulations promulgated thereunder.

7.25. Projections. The projections which have been provided to the Investors and which are attached hereto as Schedule 7.25 (the “Projections”) were prepared by the Company based on reasonable assumptions of fact and opinion as to future events at the time the Projections were prepared. Except as set forth in Schedule 7.25, as of the date hereof, no facts have come to the attention of any of the officers of the Company which would, in their reasonable opinion, require the Company to revise or amplify the assumptions underlying the Projections and other estimates or the conclusions derived therefrom. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representation or warranty that the Projections will actually be realized.

7.26. Disclosure. Except as set forth in Schedule 7.26, to the Knowledge of the Company, none of the representations or warranties of the Company contained herein, none of the information contained in the Schedules referred to in this Article VII, and none of the other written information or documents furnished to any Investor or any of its representatives by the Company or its representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, when taken as a whole, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any material respect. There is no fact that the Company has not disclosed to the Investors in writing and of which, to the Knowledge of the Company, has had, or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect.

ARTICLE VIII

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF EACH INVESTOR

As an inducement to the Company to enter into this Agreement and to issue and sell the Series A Preferred Shares, each Investor, severally and not jointly, hereby represents and warrants to the Company as to himself, herself or itself only and agrees as follows:

8.1. Organization. If such Investor is not an individual, such Investor is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of such Investor’s organization, with all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its respective businesses as now owned, leased and operated.

8.2. Authorization. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the Transaction Documents to which such Investor is a party have been duly authorized and approved by such Investor. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Investor and (assuming the due execution and delivery hereof by each of the other parties hereto) is the valid and binding obligation of such Investor enforceable against such Investor in accordance with its terms, and each of the Transaction Documents to which such Investor is a party has been duly authorized by such Investor and, upon execution and delivery by such Investor (assuming the due execution and delivery thereof by each of the other parties thereto), will be a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Investor enforceable against such Investor in accordance with its respective terms, in each case subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement thereof or by general equitable principles, (ii) laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and (iii) to the extent any indemnification provisions may be limited by applicable federal or state securities laws.

8.3. Brokers. Such Investor has no Contract with any broker, finder or similar agent with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for which such Investor shall have any liability or responsibility.

8.4. Investment Representations.

(a) Such Investor acknowledges that it has been furnished with such documents, materials and information as such Investor deems necessary or appropriate for evaluating an investment in the Company. Such Investor further acknowledges that it: (i) has had the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the directors and officers of the Company, and Persons acting on the Company’s behalf, concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Series A Preferred Shares; (ii) has knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so as to be capable of evaluating and understanding the merits and risks of an investment in the Company; and (iii) is able to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Company and the Series A Preferred Shares and Conversion Common Shares in that such Investor can afford to hold the Series A Preferred Shares and Conversion Common Shares for an indefinite period and can afford a complete loss of its investment in the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is agreed and understood by the Parties that the acknowledgements made in this Section 8.4(a) shall not be construed to limit or modify in any way the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Article VII or the right of any Investor to rely on such representations and warranties.

(b) Such Investor represents that it is acquiring the Restricted Securities purchased hereunder for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, with the present intention of holding such securities for purposes of investment, and that it has no present intention of selling such securities in a public distribution in violation of the federal securities laws or any applicable state securities laws; provided, that nothing contained herein shall prevent such Investor and subsequent holders of Restricted Securities from transferring such securities in compliance with the provisions of Article VI.

(c) Such Investor is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

(d) Such Investor understands that the Restricted Securities being sold hereby have not been registered under the Securities Act, or applicable state securities laws, and are being issued in reliance on exemptions for private offerings contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and the provisions of Regulation D promulgated thereunder and in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of certain state securities laws, on the basis that the Restricted Securities will be sold to a limited number of accredited investors. Because the Restricted Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws, the Restricted Securities may not be re-offered or resold except through a valid and effective registration statement or pursuant to a valid exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, and with the delivery of an opinion of counsel to such effect reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

8.5. Residence. If such Investor is an individual, such Investor resides in the state or province identified in the address of such Investor set forth on Appendix II; if such Investor is a partnership, corporation, limited liability company or other entity, then the office or offices of such Investor’s principal place of business is located at the addresses or addresses of such Investor set forth on Appendix II.

8.6. Reliance on Projections. In connection with such Investor’s investigation of the Company, such Investor has received the Projections set forth in Schedule 7.25. Subject to the representations and warranties of the Company in Section 7.25, such Investor acknowledges and agrees that (i) there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make the Projections, (ii) such Investor is familiar with such uncertainties, (iii) such Investor is relying on its own evaluation of the adequacy of the Projections and (iv) the Company makes no representation or warranty that the Projections will actually be realized.

8.7. No Knowledge of Breach. Such Investor does not have any actual knowledge of: (i) as of the First Closing, any misrepresentation or breach of warranty made by the Company in this Agreement; or (ii) as of the Second Closing, any misrepresentation or breach of warranty, or any breach of any covenant, made by the Company in this Agreement.

ARTICLE IX

MISCELLANEOUS

9.1. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties contained herein or made in writing by any Party in connection herewith will survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that: (i) the representations and warranties contained in Sections 7.5 through 7.8 (inclusive), 7.11, 7.13, 7.15 through 7.18 (inclusive), and 7.21 through 7.26 (inclusive) shall expire on August 31, 2008; and (ii) the representations and warranties contained in Sections 7.10, 7.19 and 7.20 shall expire upon the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations for claims related to the matters discussed in those Sections.

9.2. Amendments and Waivers. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions of this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived only if the Company shall have obtained the written consent of the holders of at a majority of the outstanding Series A Preferred Shares and Conversion Common Shares voting as a single class on a common share equivalent basis. No course of dealing between the Company and any holder of any Series A Preferred Shares or Conversion Common Shares or any delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under the Certificate of Incorporation will operate as a waiver of any rights of any such holders. For purposes of this Agreement, Series A Preferred Shares held by the Company will not be deemed to be outstanding.

9.3. Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the Parties will bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of the Parties, whether so expressed or not. In addition, the provisions of this Agreement which are for the benefit of the Investors or holders of Series A Preferred Shares or Conversion Common Shares are also for the benefit of, and enforceable by, any subsequent holders of any portion of such Series A Preferred Shares or Conversion Common Shares.

9.4. Remedies. Each holder of any Series A Preferred Share or Conversion Common Share shall have all rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement, the Certificate of Incorporation and any other agreement or contract that grants rights and remedies to such holders, and all rights that such holders have under any law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law.

9.5. Indemnification. In consideration of each Investor’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and acquisition of the Series A Preferred Shares and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under this Agreement, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Investor and each other holder of Series A Preferred Shares and Conversion Common Shares and all of their partners, officers, directors, employees and agents (including those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities, damages, expenses, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, and interest (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by the Indemnitees as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to any third party actions, causes of action, suits, claims, investigations or proceedings relating to such Person being a shareholder of the Company (or a partner, officer, director, employee or agent of such shareholder); provided, however, that (a) the Company shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless an Indemnitee under this Section 9.5 to the extent that such Indemnified Liabilities arise from a violation of any Requirements of Laws by such Indemnitee and (b) the rights afforded to an Indemnitee under this Section 9.5 are not cumulative with any other indemnification rights expressly conferred on such Indemnitee under any other Transaction Document or any other agreement between the Company and such Indemnitee. To the extent that the foregoing undertakings by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under applicable law.

9.6. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law and in such a way as to, as closely as possible, achieve the intended economic effect of such provision and this Agreement as a whole, but if any provision contained herein is, for any reason, held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent, but only to the extent, of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such provision or any other provisions hereof, unless such a construction would be unreasonable.

9.7. Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given or delivered (a) when delivered personally, (b) if transmitted by facsimile when confirmation of transmission is received, (c) if sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, three business days after mailing or (d) if sent by reputable overnight courier service, one business day after delivery to such service; and shall be addressed as follows:

ANY PARTY MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

9.10. Attorneys’ Fees. If any action or suit based upon or arising out of any actual or alleged breach by any Party of any representation, warranty or agreement in this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of such action or suit from the losing party, in addition to any other relief ordered by the court.

9.11. Execution in Counterparts.
