subscribe for or acquire, any shares of Common Stock, or contracts,
commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any
Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional shares of Common
Stock or Common Stock Equivalents. The issuance and sale of the Securities
will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other
securities to any Person (other than the Purchasers) and will not result

maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in
accordance with management's general or specific authorization, and (iv)
the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing
assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with
respect to any differences. The Company has established disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and
15d-15(e)) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and
procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company,
including its Subsidiaries, is made known to the certifying officers by
others within those entities, particularly during the period in which the
Company's most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act, as
the case may be, is being prepared. The Company's certifying officers have
evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's controls and procedures as of
the date prior to the filing date of the most recently filed periodic
report under the Exchange Act (such date, the "Evaluation Date"). The
Company presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the
Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the
effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their
evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there
have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls (as
such term is defined in Item 307(b) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange
Act) or, to the Company's knowledge, in other factors that could
significantly affect the Company's internal controls.
(s) Certain Fees. No brokerage or finder's fees or commissions
are or will be payable by the Company to any broker, financial advisor or
consultant, finder, placement agent, investment banker, bank or other
Person with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
The Purchasers shall have no obligation with respect to any fees or with
respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a
type contemplated in this Section that may be due in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
13
(t) Private Placement. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers
representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2, no registration
under the Securities Act is required for the offer and sale of the
Securities by the Company to the Purchasers as contemplated hereby. The
issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder does not contravene the
rules and regulations of the Trading Market.
(u) Investment Company. The Company is not, and is not an
Affiliate of, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Securities,
will not be or be an Affiliate of, an "investment company" within the
meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Company
shall conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become subject
to the Investment Company Act.
(v) Registration Rights. No Person has any right to cause the
Company to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any
securities of the Company.
(w) Listing and Maintenance Requirements. The Company has
taken no action designed to, or which to its knowledge is likely to have
the effect of, terminating the registration of the Common Stock under the
Exchange Act. The Company has not, in the 12 months preceding the date
hereof, received notice from any Trading Market on which the Common Stock
is or has been listed or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in
compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading
Market. The Company is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in
the foreseeable future continue to be, in compliance with all such listing
and maintenance requirements.
(x) Application of Takeover Protections. There are no control
share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any
distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover
provision under the Company's Certificate of Incorporation (or similar
charter documents) or, to the best of the Company's knowledge, the laws of
its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable to the
Purchasers as a result of the Purchasers and the Company fulfilling their
obligations or exercising their rights under the Transaction Documents,
including without limitation as a result of the Company's issuance of the
Securities and the Purchasers' ownership of the Securities.
(y) Disclosure. The Company confirms that neither it nor any
other Person acting on its behalf has provided any of the Purchasers or
their agents or counsel with any information that constitutes or might
constitute material, nonpublic information. The Company understands and
confirms that the Purchasers will rely on the foregoing representations
and covenants in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. All
disclosure provided to the Purchasers regarding the Company, its business
and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Disclosure
Schedules to this Agreement, furnished by or on behalf of the Company with
respect to the representations and warranties made herein are true and
correct with respect to such representations and warranties and do not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The
Company acknowledges and agrees that no Purchaser makes or has made any
representations or warranties with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in Section 3.2
hereof.
14
(z) No Integrated Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the
Purchasers' representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2,
neither the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor any Person acting on
its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales
of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under
circumstances that would cause this offering of the Securities to be
integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the
Securities Act or any applicable shareholder approval provisions,
including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any
exchange or automated quotation system on which any of the securities of
the Company are listed or designated.
(aa) Solvency. Based on the financial condition of the Company
as of the Closing Date after giving effect to the receipt by the Company
of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder, (i) the
Company's fair saleable value of its assets exceeds the amount that will
be required to be paid on or in respect of the Company's existing debts
and other liabilities (including known contingent liabilities) as they
mature; (ii) the Company's assets do not constitute unreasonably small
capital to carry on its business for the current fiscal year as now
conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs
taking into account the particular capital requirements of the business
conducted by the Company, and projected capital requirements and capital
availability thereof; and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company,
together with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to liquidate
all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the
cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its debt
when such amounts are required to be paid. The Company does not intend to
incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking
into account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect
of its debt). The Company has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances
which lead it to believe that it will file for reorganization or
liquidation under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any
jurisdiction within one year from the Closing Date. The SEC Reports set
forth as of the dates thereof all outstanding secured and unsecured
Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary, or for which the Company or
any Subsidiary has commitments. For the purposes of this Agreement,
"Indebtedness" shall mean (a) any liabilities for borrowed money or
amounts owed in excess of $100,000 (other than trade accounts payable
incurred in the ordinary course of business), (b) all guaranties,
endorsements and other contingent obligations in respect of Indebtedness
of others, whether or not the same are or should be reflected in the
Company's balance sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties by
endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar
transactions in the ordinary course of business; and (c) the present value
of any lease payments in excess of $100,000 due under leases required to
be capitalized in accordance with GAAP. Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary is in default with respect to any Indebtedness.
(bb) Tax Status. Except for matters that would not,
individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result
in a Material Adverse Effect, the Company and each Subsidiary has filed
all necessary federal, state and foreign income and franchise tax returns
and has paid or accrued all taxes shown as due thereon, and the Company
has no knowledge of a tax deficiency which has been asserted or threatened
against the Company or any Subsidiary.
15
(cc) No General Solicitation. Neither the Company nor any
person acting on behalf of the Company has offered or sold any of the
Securities by any form of general solicitation or general advertising.
Subject to the representations by the Purchasers in Section 3.2, the
Company has offered the Securities for sale only to the Purchasers and
certain other "accredited investors" within the meaning of Rule 501 under
the Securities Act.
(dd) Foreign Corrupt Practices. Neither the Company, nor to
the knowledge of the Company, any agent or other person acting on behalf
of the Company, has (i) directly or indirectly, used any corrupt funds for
unlawful contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful expenses
related to foreign or domestic political activity, (ii) made any unlawful
payment to foreign or domestic government officials or employees or to any
foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns from corporate funds,
(iii) failed to disclose fully any contribution made by the Company (or
made by any person acting on its behalf of which the Company is aware)
which is in violation of law, or (iv) violated in any material respect any
provision of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended
(ee) Accountants. The Company's accountants are set forth on
the most recent Annual Report filed with the SEC. To the Company's
knowledge, such accountants, who the Company expects will express their
opinion with respect to the financial statements to be included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ending December 31,
2004 are a registered public accounting firm as required by the Securities
Act.
(ff) Seniority. As of the Closing Date, no indebtedness or
other equity of the Company is senior to the Debentures in right of
payment, whether with respect to interest or upon liquidation or
dissolution, or otherwise, other than indebtedness secured by purchase
money security interests (which is senior only as to underlying assets
covered thereby) and capital lease obligations (which is senior only as to
the property covered thereby).
(gg) No Disagreements with Accountants and Lawyers. There are
no disagreements of any kind presently existing, or reasonably anticipated
by the Company to arise, between the accountants and lawyers formerly or
presently employed by the Company and the Company is current with respect
to any fees owed to its accountants and lawyers.
(hh) Acknowledgment Regarding Purchasers' Purchase of
Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that each of the
Purchasers is acting solely in the capacity of an arm's length purchaser
with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions
contemplated hereby. The Company further acknowledges that no Purchaser is
acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in any
similar capacity) with respect to this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby and any advice given by any Purchaser or any of their
respective representatives or agents in connection with this Agreement and
the transactions contemplated hereby is merely incidental to the
Purchasers' purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents to
each Purchaser that the Company's decision to enter into this Agreement
has been based solely on the independent evaluation of the transactions
contemplated hereby by the Company and its representatives.
16
Each Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Company does not make or
has not made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in this Section 3.1.
3.2 Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser
hereby, for itself and for no other Purchaser, represents and warrants as of the
date hereof and as of the Closing Date to the Company as follows:
(a) Organization; Authority. Such Purchaser is an entity duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its organization with full right, corporate or partnership
power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its
obligations thereunder. The execution, delivery and performance by such
Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been
duly authorized by all necessary corporate or similar action on the part
of such Purchaser. Each Transaction Documents to which it is a party has
been duly executed by such Purchaser, and when delivered by such Purchaser
in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and legally
binding obligation of such Purchaser, enforceable against it in accordance
with its terms, except (i) as limited by general equitable principles and
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other
laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights
generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of
specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and
(iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions may be
limited by applicable law.
(b) Own Account. Such Purchaser understands that the Securities are
"restricted securities" and have not been registered under the Securities
Act or any applicable state securities law and is acquiring the Securities
as principal for its own account and not with a view to or for
distributing or reselling such Securities or any part thereof, has no
present intention of distributing any of such Securities and has no
arrangement or understanding with any other persons regarding the
distribution of such Securities (this representation and warranty not
limiting such Purchaser's right to sell the Securities pursuant to the
Registration Statement or otherwise in compliance with applicable federal
and state securities laws). Such Purchaser is acquiring the Securities
hereunder in the ordinary course of its business. Such Purchaser does not
have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any
Person to distribute any of the Securities.
17
(c) Purchaser Status. At the time such Purchaser was offered
the Securities, it was, and at the date hereof it is, and on each date on
which it exercises any Warrants or converts any Debentures it will be
either: (i) an "accredited investor" as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (a)(2),
(a)(3), (a)(7) or (a)(8) under the Securities Act or (ii) a "qualified
institutional buyer" as defined in Rule 144A(a) under the Securities Act.
Such Purchaser is not required to be registered as a broker-dealer under
Section 15 of the Exchange Act.
(d) Experience of Such Purchaser. Such Purchaser, either alone
or together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication
and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of
evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the
Securities, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment.
Such Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the
Securities and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of
such investment.
(e) General Solicitation. Such Purchaser is not purchasing the
Securities as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other
communication regarding the Securities published in any newspaper,
magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or
presented at any seminar or any other general solicitation or general
advertisement.
(f) No Tax or Legal Advice. Such Purchaser understands that
nothing in this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other
materials presented to such Purchaser in connection with the purchase and
sale of the Securities constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. Such
Purchaser has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in
its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection
with its purchase of Securities.
(g) Disclosure of Information. Such Purchaser believes it has
received all the information it considers necessary or appropriate for
deciding whether to purchase the Shares. Such Purchaser further represents
that it has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from
the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the
Shares and the business, properties, prospects and financial condition of
the Company. Such Purchaser has reviewed the Company's Quarterly Report on
Form 10-QSB for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2004 (the
"10-QSB"). In addition, each Purchaser has reviewed and is aware of the
information set forth in all SEC Reports filed with the SEC since the
filing of the 10-QSB. The foregoing, however, does not limit or modify the
representations and warranties of the Company in Section 3 of this
Agreement or the right of the Purchasers to rely thereon.
(g) Registration Required. Such Purchaser hereby covenants
with the Company not to make any sale of the Shares without complying with
the provisions hereof and of the Registration Rights Agreement, and
without effectively causing the prospectus delivery requirement under the
Securities Act to be satisfied (unless such Purchaser is selling such
Shares in a transaction not subject to the prospectus delivery
requirement), and such Purchaser acknowledges that the certificates
evidencing the Shares will be imprinted with a legend that prohibits their
transfer except in accordance therewith.
18
(h) Short Sales. Such Purchaser has not directly or
indirectly, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any
understanding with such Purchaser, executed any short sales in the
securities of the Company since December 1, 2004 to the date hereof.
The Company acknowledges and agrees that each Purchaser does not make or
has not made any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in this Section 3.2.
ARTICLE IV.
OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES
4.1 Transfer Restrictions.
(a) The Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with
state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of
Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or
Rule 144, to the Company or to an affiliate of a Purchaser or in
connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company
may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of
counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the
Company, 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 Securities 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 and shall have the
rights of a Purchaser under this Agreement and the Registration Rights
Agreement.
(b) The Purchasers agree to the imprinting, so long as is
required by this Section 4.1(b), of a legend on any of the Securities in
the following form:
[NEITHER] THESE SECURITIES [NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES
ARE [EXERCISABLE][CONVERTIBLE]] HAVE 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 AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE
OF THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN
ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.
19
The Company acknowledges and agrees that a Purchaser may from time
to time pledge pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered
broker-dealer or grant a security interest in some or all of the
Securities to a financial institution that is an "accredited investor" as
defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and who agrees to be bound
by the provisions of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement
and, if required under the terms of such arrangement, such Purchaser may
transfer pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or secured parties.
Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company
and no legal opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured party or
pledgor shall be required in connection therewith. Further, no notice
shall be required of such pledge. At the appropriate Purchaser's expense,
the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a
pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in
connection with a pledge or transfer of the Securities, including, if the
Securities are subject to registration pursuant to the Registration Rights
Agreement, the preparation and filing of any required prospectus
supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act or other
applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list
of Selling Stockholders thereunder.
(c) Certificates evidencing the Underlying Shares shall not contain
any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b) hereof): (i)
while a registration statement (including the Registration Statement)
covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities
Act, or (ii) following any sale of such Underlying Shares pursuant to Rule
144, or (iii) if such Underlying Shares are eligible for sale under Rule
144(k), or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable
requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and
pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission). The Company shall
cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Company's transfer agent
promptly after the Effective Date if required by the Company's transfer
agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder. If all or any portion
of a Debenture or Warrant is converted or exercised (as applicable) at a
time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale
of the Underlying Shares, or if such Underlying Shares may be sold under
Rule 144(k) or if such legend is not otherwise required under applicable
requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations
thereof) then such Underlying Shares shall be issued free of all legends.
As long as such applicable sale is transacted through a broker dealer, the
Company agrees that following the Effective Date or at such time as such
legend is no longer required under this Section 4.1(c), it will, no later
than three Trading Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the
Company or the Company's transfer agent of a certificate representing
Underlying Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend (such
third Trading Day, the "Legend Removal Date"), deliver or cause to be
delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such shares that is
free from all restrictive and other legends. 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. Certificates for Securities subject to legend removal hereunder
shall be transmitted by the transfer agent of the Company to the
Purchasers by crediting the account of the Purchaser's prime broker with
the Depository Trust Company System.
20
(d) In addition to such Purchaser's other available remedies,
the Company shall pay to a Purchaser, in cash, as partial liquidated
damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Underlying Shares (based
on the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the date such Securities are
submitted to the Company's transfer agent) delivered for removal of the
restrictive legend and subject to this Section 4.1(c), $10 per Trading Day
(increasing to $20 per Trading Day 5 Trading Days after such damages have
begun to accrue) for each Trading Day after 2nd Trading Day following the
Legend Removal Date until such certificate is delivered without a legend.
Nothing herein shall limit such Purchaser's right to pursue actual damages
for the Company's failure to deliver certificates representing any
Securities as required by the Transaction Documents, and such Purchaser
shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in
equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance
and/or injunctive relief.
(e) Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other
Purchasers, agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend from
certificates representing Securities as set forth in this Section 4.1 is
predicated upon the Company's reliance that the Purchaser will sell any
Securities pursuant to either the registration requirements of the
Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements,
or an exemption therefrom.
(f) Until the date that the Purchasers in the aggregate hold
less than 40% of the Debentures initially purchased hereunder by such
Purchaser, the Company shall not undertake a reverse stock split or
reclassification of the Common Stock without the prior written consent of
the Purchasers holding a majority in principal amount outstanding of the
Debentures.
4.2 Acknowledgment of Dilution. The Company acknowledges that the issuance
of the Securities may result in dilution of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock, which dilution may be substantial under certain market conditions. The
Company further acknowledges that its obligations under the Transaction
Documents, including without limitation its obligation to issue the Underlying
Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents, are unconditional and absolute and
not subject to any right of set off, counterclaim, delay or reduction,
regardless of the effect of any such dilution or any claim the Company may have
against any Purchaser and regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance
may have on the ownership of the other stockholders of the Company.
4.3 Furnishing of Information. As long as any Purchaser owns Securities,
the Company covenants to timely file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof
and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by
the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the Exchange Act. As long as any
Purchaser owns Securities, if the Company is not required to file reports
pursuant to the Exchange Act, it will prepare and furnish to the Purchasers and
make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such information as is
required for the Purchasers to sell the Securities under Rule 144. The Company
further covenants that it will take such further action as any holder of
Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time
to enable such Person to sell such Securities without registration under the
Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144.
21
4.4 Registration Exemption. The Company shall not sell, offer for sale or
solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as
defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would cause the offer or sale
of the Securities to the Purchasers to no longer be exempt under Regulation D of
the Securities Act.
4.5 Conversion and Exercise Procedures. The form of Notice of Exercise
included in the Warrants and the form of Notice of Conversion included in the
Debentures set forth the totality of the procedures required of the Purchasers
in order to exercise the Warrants or convert the Debentures. No additional legal
opinion or other information or instructions shall be required of the Purchasers
to exercise their Warrants or convert their Debentures. The Company shall honor
exercises of the Warrants and conversions of the Debentures and shall deliver
Underlying Shares in accordance with the terms, conditions and time periods set
forth in the Transaction Documents.
4.6 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. The Company shall, by 8:30 a.m.
Eastern time on the Trading Day following the date hereof, issue a Current
Report on Form 8-K, reasonably acceptable to each Purchaser disclosing the
material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby, and shall attach the
Transaction Documents thereto. The Company and each Purchaser shall consult with
each other in issuing any other press releases with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby, and neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue any
such press release or otherwise make any such public statement without the prior
consent of the Company, with respect to any press release of any Purchaser, or
without the prior consent of each Purchaser, with respect to any press release
of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, except if such
disclosure is required by law, in which case the disclosing party shall promptly
provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement or
communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly
disclose the name of any Purchaser, or include the name of any Purchaser in any
filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without
the prior written consent of such Purchaser, except (i) as required by federal
securities law in connection with the registration statement contemplated by the
Registration Rights Agreement and (ii) to the extent such disclosure is required
by law or Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide
the Purchasers with prior notice of such disclosure permitted under subclause
(i) or (ii).
4.7 Shareholder Rights Plan. No claim will be made or enforced by the
Company or, to the knowledge of the Company, any other Person that any Purchaser
is an "Acquiring Person" under any shareholder rights plan or similar plan or
arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company, or that any Purchaser
could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, by
virtue of receiving Securities under the Transaction Documents or under any
other agreement between the Company and the Purchasers. The Company shall
conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become subject to the
Investment Company Act.
22
4.8 Non-Public Information. The Company covenants and agrees that neither
it nor any other Person acting on its behalf will provide any Purchaser or its
agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes
material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Purchaser shall have
executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such
information. The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be
relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities
of the Company.
4.9 Use of Proceeds. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.9 attached hereto,
the Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder
for working capital purposes and not for the satisfaction of any portion of the
Company's debt (other than payment of trade payables in the ordinary course of
the Company's business and prior practices), to redeem any Common Stock or
Common Stock Equivalents or to settle any outstanding litigation.
4.10 [Intentionally Omitted].
4.11 Indemnification of Purchasers. Subject to the provisions of this
Section 4.11, the Company will indemnify and hold the Purchasers and their
directors, officers, shareholders, partners, employees and agents (each, a
"Purchaser Party") harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations,
claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments,
amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees and
costs of investigation that any such Purchaser Party may suffer or incur as a
result of or relating to (a) any breach of any of the representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in
the other Transaction Documents or (b) any action instituted against a
Purchaser, or any of them or their respective Affiliates, by any stockholder of
the Company who is not an Affiliate of such Purchaser, with respect to any of
the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (unless such action
is based upon a breach of such Purchaser's representation, warranties or
covenants under the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings
such Purchaser may have with any such stockholder or any violations by the
Purchaser of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by such Purchaser
which constitutes fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance).
If any action shall be brought against any Purchaser Party in respect of which
indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Purchaser Party shall
promptly notify the Company in writing, and the Company shall have the right to
assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing. Any Purchaser Party
shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and
participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel
shall be at the expense of such Purchaser Party except to the extent that (i)
the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company in
writing, (ii) the Company has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume
such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the
reasonable opinion of such separate counsel, a material conflict on any material
issue between the position of the Company and the position of such Purchaser
Party. The Company will not be liable to any Purchaser Party under this
Agreement (i) for any settlement by a Purchaser Party effected without the
Company's prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed; or (ii) to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim,
damage or liability is attributable to any Purchaser Party's breach of any of
the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Purchasers
in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents.
23
4.12 Reservation and Listing of Securities.
(a) The Company shall maintain a reserve from its duly
authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Transaction
Documents in such amount as may be required to fulfill its obligations in
full under the Transaction Documents.
(b) If, on any date, the number of authorized but unissued
(and otherwise unreserved) shares of Common Stock is less than the
Required Minimum on such date, then the Board of Directors of the Company
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to amend the Company's
certificate or articles of incorporation to increase the number of
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to at least the Required
Minimum at such time, as soon as possible and in any event not later than
the 75th day after such date.
(c) The Company shall, if applicable: (i) in the time and
manner required by the Trading Market, prepare and file with such Trading
Market an additional shares listing application covering a number of
shares of Common Stock at least equal to the Required Minimum on the date
of such application, (ii) take all steps necessary to cause such shares of
Common Stock to be approved for listing on the Trading Market as soon as
possible thereafter, (iii) provide to the Purchasers evidence of such
listing, and (iv) maintain the listing of such Common Stock on any date at
least equal to the Required Minimum on such date on such Trading Market or
another Trading Market.
4.13 Participation in Future Financing. From the date hereof until the one
year anniversary of the Closing Date, upon any financing by the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (a "Subsequent
Financing"), each Purchaser shall have the right to participate in up to the
lesser of (a) 100% of the Subsequent Financing and (b) $2,000,000 of the
Subsequent Financing (the "Participation Maximum"). At least 5 Trading Days
prior to the closing of the Subsequent Financing, the Company shall deliver to
each Purchaser a written notice of its intention to effect a Subsequent
Financing ("Pre-Notice"), which Pre-Notice shall ask such Purchaser if it wants
to review the details of such financing (such additional notice, a "Subsequent
Financing Notice"). Upon the request of a Purchaser, and only upon a request by
such Purchaser, for a Subsequent Financing Notice, the Company shall promptly,
but no later than 1 Trading Day after such request, deliver a Subsequent
Financing Notice to such Purchaser. The Subsequent Financing Notice shall
describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing,
the amount of proceeds intended to be raised thereunder and attached to which
shall be a term sheet or similar document relating thereto. If by 5:30 p.m. (New
York City time) on the 5th Trading Day after all of the Purchasers have received
the Pre-Notice, notifications by the Purchasers of their willingness to
participate in the Subsequent Financing (or to cause their designees to
participate) is, in the aggregate, less than the total amount of the Subsequent
Financing, then the Company may effect the remaining portion of such Subsequent
Financing on the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice. If the
Company receives no notice from a Purchaser as of such 5th Trading Day, such
Purchaser shall be deemed to have notified the Company that it does not elect to
participate. The Company must provide the Purchasers with a second Subsequent
Financing Notice, and the Purchasers will again have the right of participation
set forth above in this Section 4.13, if the Subsequent Financing subject to the
initial Subsequent Financing Notice is not consummated for any reason on the
terms set forth in such Subsequent Financing Notice within 60 Trading Days after
the date of the initial Subsequent Financing Notice. In the event the Company
receives responses to Subsequent Financing Notices from Purchasers seeking to
purchase more than the aggregate amount of the Subsequent Financing, each such
Purchaser shall have the right to purchase their Pro Rata Portion (as defined
below) of the Participation Maximum. "Pro Rata Portion" is the ratio of (x) the
Subscription Amount of Securities purchased by a participating Purchaser and (y)
the sum of the aggregate Subscription Amount of all participating Purchasers.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.13 shall not apply in respect of
an Exempt Issuance.
24
4.14 Subsequent Equity Sales. From the date hereof until such time as no
Purchaser holds any of the Debentures, the Company shall be prohibited from
effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any Subsequent Financing
involving a "Variable Rate Transaction". The term "Variable Rate Transaction"
shall mean a transaction in which the Company issues or sells (i) any debt or
equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or
include the right to receive additional shares of Common Stock either (A) at a
conversion, exercise or exchange rate or other price that is based upon and/or
varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock
at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities, or (B)
with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at
some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or
upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly
related to the business of the Company or the market for the Common Stock;
provided that this prohibition shall not prevent the Company from undertaking a
structure similar to the structure of the transactions contemplated hereunder.
4.15 Equal Treatment of Purchasers. No consideration shall be offered or
paid to any person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any
provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is
also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents. Further, the
Company shall not make any payment of principal or interest on the Debentures in
amounts which are disproportionate to the respective principal amounts
outstanding on the Debentures at any applicable time. For clarification
purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Purchaser
by the Company and negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and is intended to
treat for the Company the Debenture holders as a class and shall not in any way
be construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to
the purchase, disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise.
ARTICLE V.
MISCELLANEOUS
5.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by any Purchaser, by
written notice to the other parties, if the Closing has not been consummated on
or before December 31, 2004; provided that no such termination will affect the
right of any party to xxx for any breach by the other party (or parties).
25
5.2 Fees and Expenses. At the Closing, the Company has agreed to reimburse
DKR SoundShore Oasis Holding Fund Ltd. ("DKR") up to $50,000, for its actual,
reasonable, out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses (of which $10,000 has been
received prior to the date hereof). Accordingly, in lieu of such payment, DKR is
hereby authorized and instructed to deduct up to $40,000 from its Subscription
Amount at the Closing. The Company shall deliver, prior to the Closing, a
completed and executed copy of the Closing Statement, attached hereto as Annex
A. Except as expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents to the contrary,

and other experts, if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party
incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of
this Agreement. The Company shall pay all transfer agent fees, stamp taxes and
other taxes and duties levied in connection with the delivery of any Securities.
5.3 Entire Agreement. The Transaction Documents, together with the
exhibits and schedules thereto, contain the entire understanding of the parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and
understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters, which the parties
acknowledge have been merged into such documents, exhibits and schedules.
5.4 Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries
required or permitted to be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be

5.5 Amendments; Waivers. No provision of this Agreement may be waived or
amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by
the Company and each Purchaser or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against
whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No waiver of any default with
respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be
deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent
default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor
shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in
any manner impair the exercise of any such right.
5.6 Headings The headings herein are for convenience only, do not
constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect
any of the provisions hereof. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed
to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no
rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.
26
5.7 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The
Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of each Purchaser. Any Purchaser may assign
any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom such
Purchaser assigns or transfers any Securities, provided such transferee agrees
in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred Securities, by the
provisions hereof that apply to the "Purchasers".
5.8 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted
assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced
by, any other Person, except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.11.
5.9 Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity,
enforcement and interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall be governed by
and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of
New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each
party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations,
enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its
respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents)
shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the
City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York,
borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in
connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed
herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction
Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit,
action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the
jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper
or inconvenient venue for such proceeding. 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 via registered or certified
mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the
address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such
service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice
thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right
to serve process in any manner permitted by law. The parties hereby waive all
rights to a trial by jury. If either party shall commence an action or
proceeding to enforce any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then the
prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other
party for its attorneys' fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the
investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.
5.10 Survival. The representations and warranties contained herein shall
survive the Closing and the delivery, exercise and/or conversion of the
Securities, as applicable for the applicable statue of limitations.
5.11 Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the
same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by
each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both
parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is
delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid and
binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is
executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page
were an original thereof.
27
5.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the
remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid
and enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so
agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement.
5.13 Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the
Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election,
demand or option under a Transaction Documents and the Company does not timely
perform its related obligations within the periods therein provided, then such
Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon
written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole
or in part without prejudice to its future actions and rights; provided,
however, in the case of a rescission of a conversion of a Debenture or exercise
of a Warrant, the Purchaser shall be required to return any shares of Common
Stock subject to any such rescinded conversion or exercise notice.
5.14 Replacement of Securities. If any certificate or instrument
evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company
shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon
cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate
or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of such loss, theft or destruction and customary and reasonable
indemnity, if requested. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument
under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs
associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.
5.15 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights
provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the
Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under the
Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be
adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of
obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agrees to waive in
any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a
remedy at law would be adequate.
5.16 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or
payments to any Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Documents or a Purchaser
enforces or exercises its rights thereunder, and such payment or payments or the
proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered
from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored
to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law
(including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common
law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration
the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be
revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been
made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
28
5.17 Usury. To the extent it may lawfully do so, the Company hereby agrees
not to insist upon or plead or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will resist
any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefit or advantage of, usury
laws wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, in connection with
any claim, action or proceeding that may be brought by any Purchaser in order to
enforce any right or remedy under any Transaction Documents. Notwithstanding any
provision to the contrary contained in any Transaction Documents, it is
expressly agreed and provided that the total liability of the Company under the
Transaction Documents for payments in the nature of interest shall not exceed
the maximum lawful rate authorized under applicable law (the "Maximum Rate"),
and, without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall any rate of interest or
default interest, or both of them, when aggregated with any other sums in the
nature of interest that the Company may be obligated to pay under the
Transaction Documents exceed such Maximum Rate. It is agreed that if the maximum
contract rate of interest allowed by law and applicable to the Transaction
Documents is increased or decreased by statute or any official governmental
action subsequent to the date hereof, the new maximum contract rate of interest
allowed by law will be the Maximum Rate applicable to the Transaction Documents
from the effective date forward, unless such application is precluded by
applicable law. If under any circumstances whatsoever, interest in excess of the
Maximum Rate is paid by the Company to any Purchaser with respect to
indebtedness evidenced by the Transaction Documents, such excess shall be
applied by such Purchaser to the unpaid principal balance of any such
indebtedness or be refunded to the Company, the manner of handling such excess
to be at such Purchaser's election.
5.18 Independent Nature of Purchasers' Obligations and Rights. The
obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Documents are several and
not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be
responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other
Purchaser under any Transaction Documents. Nothing contained herein or in any
Transaction Documents, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant thereto,
shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a
joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the
Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such
obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each
Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights,
including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of
the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other
Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such
purpose. Each Purchaser has been represented by its own separate legal counsel
in their review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. For reasons of
administrative convenience only, Purchasers and their respective counsel have
chosen to communicate with the Company through FW. FW does not represent all of
the Purchasers but only DKR. The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers
with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company
and not because it was required or requested to do so by the Purchasers.
29
5.19 Liquidated Damages. The Company's obligations to pay any partial
liquidated damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction Documents is a
continuing obligation of the Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid
partial liquidated damages and other amounts have been paid notwithstanding the
fact that the instrument or security pursuant to which such partial liquidated
damages or other amounts are due and payable shall have been canceled.
5.20 Construction. The parties agree that each of them and/or their
respective counsel has reviewed and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction
Documents and, therefore, the normal rule of construction to the effect that any
ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed
in the interpretation of the Transaction Documents or any amendments hereto.
