distribution of the Shares in violation of the Securities Act;
(c) The
Investor acknowledges that it has significant prior investment experience,

Investor recognizes the highly speculative nature of this
investment. In particular, and without limitation, the Investor
represents that it understands that the Company’s securities have suffered
significant illiquidity and decline in stock price and that other restricted
shareholders are eligible to sell securities pursuant to Rule 144 of the
Securities Act. The Investor represents that it has been furnished

review;
(d) The
Investor acknowledges that the Shares have not been passed upon or reviewed by
the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Investor agrees that it
will not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Shares until they are
registered under the Securities Act, or unless an exemption from such
registration is available and that a legend substantially in the form as
provided in Section 4 below will be placed on the certificate(s) representing
the shares to such effect;

Agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement and obligation of the
Investor enforceable against the Investor in accordance with its terms, subject

is not acquiring the Shares as part of a group, as such term is defined in
Section 13 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and

has not agreed to grant any proxy or enter into any form of voting trust,
agreement or similar arrangement with respect to the Shares; and
(g) This
Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered on behalf of
the Investor, and the Investor has full power and authority to execute and
deliver this Agreement and the other agreements and documents contemplated
hereby and to perform his obligations hereunder and thereunder.

understands and acknowledges existing holders of Notes (the “Notes”) and Warrants (the
“Warrants”) issued in
January of 2008 to certain investors and the placement agent (the “Note Holders”) have certain
full ratchet and other anti dilutions protections attached to their Notes and
Warrants, and that the Company shall have obtained partial waivers from the Note
Holders which provide, in relevant part, that the Conversion Price (as defined
in the Notes) of such Notes shall be reduced to (i) $0.20 if such
Note Holder invests new monies in the Company pursuant to an offering of
convertible notes with similar terms to their existing Notes (except at a lower
conversion price) or (ii) $0.25 per share if such note Holder does not invest
new monies, and further provide that such Note Holders waive any other anti
dilution rights that would otherwise cause an adjustment to the exercise price
of the Warrants or any other anti dilution rights that would cause an adjustment
or adjustments to the nature of the Warrants or Notes as a result of this
offering.

thereunder, and none of the SEC Reports, when filed, contained any untrue
statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be

applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the
Commission with respect thereto as in effect at the time of

(e) Certain Registration
Matters. Assuming the accuracy of the Investor’s representations and
warranties, no registration under the Securities Act is required for the offer
and sale of the Shares by the Company to the Investor under this
Agreement.
4. Other
Agreements of the Parties.
(a) The
Company and the Investor agree that the Shares may only be disposed of in
compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with
any transfer of the Shares other than pursuant to an effective registration
statement, to the Company, to an affiliate of an Investor or in connection with
a pledge as contemplated in Section 4(b), the Company may require the transferor
thereof to provide to the Company with an opinion of counsel selected by the
transferor, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require
registration of such transferred Shares under the Securities Act. As
a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound
by the terms of this Agreement.
(b) Certificates
evidencing the Shares will contain substantially the following legend, until
such time as they are not required under Section 4(c):
THESE
SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM
REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES
ACT"), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN
AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION
REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO
SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE
COMPANY. THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA
FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.
4
(c) Certificates
evidencing the Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set
forth in Section 4(b)) following a sale or transfer of such Shares pursuant to
Rule 144 (assuming the transferor is not, and does not become, an affiliate of
the Company). The Company may not make any notation on its records or
give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company that enlarge the
restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Investor represents that it understands that the Company was
once a blank check shell company and, accordingly, its ability to utilize the
resale exemptions provided pursuant to Rule 144 in the event that the Company
becomes non compliant with its ongoing requirements to file all required SEC
Reports, or to request a legend removal without a sale, is accordingly
limited.
4.2 Delivery
of Share Certificates. As soon as
practicable after the Closing, but in no event more than five (5) business days
after the Closing, the Company agrees to cause manually executed originals of a
certificate evidencing a number of Shares equal to such Investor’s Purchase
price divided by the Per Share Purchase Price, registered in the name of such
Investor to be delivered to such Investor at the address specified by the
Investor to the Company in writing.
5. Binding
Effect; Assignment. This Agreement is
not assignable by the Company or the Investor without the prior written consent
of the other party. This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be
binding and shall inure to the benefit of the Company and its successors and
permitted assigns with respect to the obligations of the Investor under this
Agreement, and to the benefit of the Investor and its successors and permitted
assigns with respect to the obligations of the Company under this
Agreement.
6. Governing
Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement
shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of
New York without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result
in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction.
7. Entire
Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding
and agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior and/or contemporaneous oral or written proposals or
agreements relating thereto all of which are merged herein. This
Agreement may not be amended or any provision hereof waived in whole or in part,
except by a written amendment signed by both of the parties.
8. Survival. The
representations and warranties of the Company and the Investor shall survive the
Closing hereunder.
