(c) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by the Investor of this Agreement and the consummation by the Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents of the Investor or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Investor is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws) applicable to the Investor, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such conflicts, defaults, rights or violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Investor to perform its obligations hereunder.

(d) Ownership of Investor Warrants. The Investor is the sole record and beneficial owner of the Investor Warrants and will transfer and deliver to the Company at the Closing valid title to the Investor Warrants, free from preemptive or similar rights, taxes, liens, charges and other encumbrances.

(e) Company Representations and Warranties. The Company represents and warrants to the Investor, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date as follows:

(f) Organization and Qualification. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is an entity duly organized and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is formed, and has the requisite power and authorization to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted and as presently proposed to be conducted. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign entity to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(g) Authorization; Enforcement; Validity. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to issue the Exchange Shares in accordance with the terms hereof. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, the issuance of the Exchange Shares, have been duly authorized by the Company’s board of directors and no further filing, consent or authorization is required by the Company, its board of directors or its stockholders or other governing body. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies and except as rights to indemnification and to contribution may be limited by federal or state securities law.

(h) Issuance of Securities. The issuance of the Exchange Shares is duly authorized and upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Exchange Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all preemptive or similar rights, taxes, liens, charges and other encumbrances with respect to the issue thereof. The Exchange Shares shall be issued without any restrictive legend and may be freely resold by the Investor without any restrictions.

(i) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Exchange Shares) will not (i) result in a violation of the Certificate of Incorporation (including, without limitation, any certificates of designation contained therein) or other organizational documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any capital stock of the Company, or Bylaws, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or

give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including, without limitation, federal and state securities laws and regulations and the rules and regulations of the Principal market) applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or affected except, in the case of clause (ii) or (iii) above, to the extent such violations would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(j) Consents. The Company is not required to obtain any consent from, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with any court, Governmental Entity or any regulatory or self-regulatory agency or any other Person in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under, or contemplated by, this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof. All consents, authorizations, orders, filings and registrations which the Company is required to obtain at or prior to the Closing have been obtained or effected on or prior to the Closing Date. Except as disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on November 18, 2011, the Company is not in violation of the requirements of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”), and has no knowledge of any other facts or circumstances which could reasonably be expected to lead to delisting or suspension of the Common Stock from trading thereon in the foreseeable future.

(k) Disclosure. The Company confirms that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided the Investor or its agents or counsel with any information that constitutes or could reasonably be expected to constitute material, nonpublic information. The Company understands and confirms that the Investor will rely on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. No event or circumstance has occurred nor does any information exist with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or its or their business, properties, prospects, operations or financial conditions, that, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure or announcement by the Company, except for such event, circumstances or information that has been so publicly announced or disclosed.

(l) No Commissions. No commission or other remuneration is paid or payable by the Company directly or indirectly to any Person for effecting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(m) Securities Law Exemptions. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Investor contained herein, the offer and issuance by the Company of the Exchange Shares is exempt from registration under the Securities Act. The offer and issuance of the Exchanged Securities is exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) thereof.

(n) Transfer Taxes. On the Closing Date, all share transfer or other taxes (other than income or similar taxes) which are required to be paid in connection with the issuance of the Exchange Shares to be exchanged with the Investor hereunder will be, or will have been, fully paid or provided for by the Company, and all laws imposing such taxes will be or will have been complied with.

(o) Exchange Terms. None of the terms offered to any other holder of the Investor Warrants relating to the exchange, amendment or early exercise thereof (any such event being a “Warrant Exchange”) are more favorable to such person than those provided to the Investor pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.” Further, the Company will not execute a warrant exchange for 90 days on different terms.

(p) Reverse Stock Split. The Company agrees to a restriction on announcing or doing a reverse stock split for at least 30 days.

(q) Financings. The Company agrees not to conduct a financing for at least 30 days.

3. CERTAIN COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS.

(b) Form 8-K. On or before 9:30 a.m., New York time, on the date hereof, the Company shall file a Current Report on Form 8-K describing all the material terms of the transactions contemplated by this Amendment in the form required by the 1934 Act (the “8- K Filing”). From and after the issuance of the 8-K Filing, the Company shall have disclosed all material, non-public information (if any) delivered to the Investor by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Agreements or otherwise.

(d) Section 3(a)(9). The Company represents that the exchange of the Investor Warrants for the Exchange Shares is being made in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the 1933 Act and agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 3(c). For the purposes of Rule 144, the Company acknowledges that the holding period of the Exchange Shares may be tacked onto the holding period of the Investor Warrants and the Company agrees not to take a position contrary to this Section 4(c). The Company agrees to issue so-called “freely tradable” Exchange Shares without any restrictions on transfer and without any restrictive legend.

(e) Participation Right. The Company agrees that if, at any time or from time to time during the one-year period following the date of this Agreement, the Company undertakes a Subsequent Placement (as defined below), the Company shall offer the Investor the opportunity to participate to the extent of the Investor’s Ratable Share (as defined below) of up to 30% of the total offering amount of the Subsequent Placement on the same terms and conditions as the other offerees in the Subsequent Placement. The Investor’s “Ratable Share” for this purpose means the proportion that the number of the Exchange Shares bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to this Agreement and one

or more similar agreements, if any, in exchange for the Warrants (not to exceed an aggregate of 12,275,416 shares of Common Stock, including the Exchange Shares).

(i) “Common Share Equivalents” means, collectively, Options and Convertible Securities.

(iii) “Convertible Securities” means any stock or securities (other than Options) convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock.

(iv) “Excluded Securities” means the issuance of (a) shares of Common Stock or options to employees, officers or directors of the Company or its subsidiaries pursuant to any stock or option plan duly adopted for such purpose, by a majority of the non—employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company or a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such purpose, (b) securities upon the exercise or exchange of or exchangeable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date hereof, provided that such securities have not been amended since date hereof to increase the number of such securities or to decrease the exercise price, exchange price or conversion price of such securities, and (c) securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions approved by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Company, provided that any such issuance shall only be a Person (or to the equity holders of a Person) which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company or an owner of an asset in a business synergistic with the business of the Company and shall provide to the Company additional benefits in addition to the investment of funds, but shall not, for the purposes of this clause (c), include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or to an entity whose primary business is investing in securities.

(v) “Options” means any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock or Convertible Securities.

Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.
