The

and
conditions under which the Investor hereby offers to subscribe (the "Offer")
for
the securities of this private placement ("Offering") which are offered by
Simtrol, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), pursuant to that certain
Confidential Private Placement Memorandum (the "Memorandum") of the Company
dated February 20, 2007. The Company is issuing securities consisting of
Series
B Convertible Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") with warrants to acquire
shares of Common Stock ("Warrants") (collectively, the "Securities") at $37,500
per Security. Each Security contains 50 shares of Preferred Stock, of which
each
share of Preferred Stock is convertible into 2,000 shares of common stock
of the
Company, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock") and a warrant to
purchase 100,000 shares of Common Stock at $0.375 per share. The undersigned
understands that the Securities are being issued pursuant to the exemption
from
registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Act"),
provided by Section 4(2) of the Act. As such, the Preferred Stock, the Warrants,
and the underlying shares of Common Stock into which the Preferred Stock
and the
Warrants may be converted (the "Underlying Shares") are "restricted securities".
Capitalized
terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the
Memorandum.
2. Subscription.
Subject
to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth in this Subscription
Agreement, the undersigned hereby offers to purchase the Securities as set
forth
in the Investor Signature Page attached hereto.
3. Conditions
to Offer.
The
undersigned acknowledges that the Company may accept or reject the Offer,
in
whole or in part, for any reason whatsoever. Acceptance of this Offer shall
be
deemed given by the countersigning of this Subscription Agreement on behalf
of
the Company.
4. Representations
and Warranties of the Investor.

warrants and represents as follows:
(A) The

Company.

securities for an indefinite period of time as required and (b) sustain a
complete loss of the entire amount of the subscription; and (iii) has not
made
an overall commitment to investments which are not readily marketable which
is
disproportionate so as to cause such overall commitment to become
excessive.
(D) The
undersigned has carefully reviewed the Memorandum. The undersigned has also
been
afforded the opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the
officers and/or directors of the Company concerning the terms and conditions
of
the Offering and to obtain any additional information, to the extent that
the
Company possesses such information or can acquire it without unreasonable
effort
or expense, necessary to verify the accuracy of the information furnished;
and
has availed itself of such opportunity to the extent the Investor considers
appropriate in order to permit it to
evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities. It is
understood that all documents, records and books pertaining to this investment
have been made available for inspection, and that the books and records of
the
Company will be available upon reasonable notice for inspection by investors
during reasonable business hours at its principal place of
business.
(E) The
undersigned acknowledges that the Securities including Underlying Shares
have
not been registered under the Act in reliance on an exemption for transactions
by an issuer not involving a public offering, and further understands that
the
Investor is purchasing the Securities without being furnished any prospectus
setting forth all of the information that would be required to be furnished
under the Act.
(F) The
undersigned further acknowledges that this Offering has not been passed upon
or
the merits thereof endorsed or approved by any state or federal
authorities.
(G) The
Securities being subscribed for are being acquired solely for the account
of the
undersigned and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any
distribution in any jurisdiction where such sale or distribution would be
precluded. By such representation, the Investor means that no other person
has a
beneficial interest in the Securities (or Underlying Shares) subscribed for
hereunder, and that no other person has furnished or will furnish directly
or
indirectly, any part of or guarantee the payment of any part of the
consideration to be paid to the Company in connection therewith. The undersigned
does not intend to dispose of all or any part of the Securities (or Warrant
or
Common Stock issuable upon any exercise of the Warrant) except in compliance
with the provisions of the Act and applicable state securities laws and
understands that the Securities are being offered pursuant to a specific
exemption under the provisions of the Act, which exemption(s) depends, among
other things, upon compliance with the provisions of the Act.
(H) The
undersigned further represents and agrees that the undersigned will not sell,
transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of or encumber the Securities (including
the Underlying Shares) prior to registration, or the undersigned will, if
requested, furnish the Company and its transfer agent with an opinion of
counsel
satisfactory to the Company in form and substance that registration under
the
Act or applicable state securities laws is not required.
(I) The
undersigned hereby agrees that the Company may insert the following or similar
legend on the face of the certificates evidencing the Securities and the
Underlying Shares, if required in compliance with federal and state securities
laws:
"These
securities have not been registered under Act or under the securities laws
of
any state. They may not be sold, offered for sale, pledged or hypothecated
in
the absence of a registration statement in effect with respect to the securities
under such act or an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the company
that such registration is not required pursuant to a valid exemption under
the
Act."
(J) Neither
the Company nor any person acting on its behalf has offered or sold the
undersigned the Securities by means of any form of general solicitation or
general advertising and the Securities were not offered or sold to the Investor
by means of publicly disseminated advertisements or sales
literature.
The

set forth in subsection (A) through (J) inclusive of this Section 4 are true
as
of the date hereof and shall survive such date.

6. Covenants
of the Company.
(A)
Registration
Rights. The
Company grants to the Investor registration rights relating to the Common
Stock
and the Underlying Shares under the following terms and conditions:
(1)
The
Company will prepare and file, at its own expense, a registration statement
under the Act (the "Registration Statement") with the SEC sufficient to permit
the non-underwritten public offering and resale of the Underlying Shares
(the
"Registrable Securities") through the facilities of all appropriate securities
exchanges, if any, on which the Common Stock is being sold or on the
over-the-counter market if the Common Stock is traded thereon.
(2)
The
Company will use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration
Statement to become effective within one hundred and twenty (120) days of
the
date of the sale of the Securities to Investor or, if earlier, within five
(5)
business days of Commission clearance to request acceleration of effectiveness.
The number of shares designated in the Registration Statement to be registered
shall include all of the Registrable Securities and shall include appropriate
language regarding reliance upon Rule 416 to the extent permitted by the
SEC.
The Company will notify the Investor of the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement within five (5) business days of such event.
(3) Except
as
otherwise provided in Section 6(C) below, the Company will use its reasonable
best efforts to maintain effectiveness under the Act of the Registration
Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto filed under the terms of
this
Agreement until the earlier of (i) the date that all of the Registrable
Securities have been sold pursuant to such Registration Statement, (ii) the
date
all Registrable Securities have been otherwise transferred to persons who
may
trade such shares without restriction under the Act, and the Company has
delivered a new certificate or other evidence of ownership for such securities
not bearing a restrictive legend, or (iii) the date all Securities may be
sold
at any time, without volume or manner of sale limitations pursuant to Rule
144(k) (Rule 144 means Rule 144 promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Act,
herein referred to as "Rule 144") or any similar provision then in effect
under
the Securities Act (the "Effectiveness Period").
(4) If,
at
any time during which the Registration Statement required by Section 6(A)(1)
and
6(A)(2) above is not effective, the Company shall determine to proceed with
the
preparation and filing of a separate registration statement pursuant to the
Act
in connection with the proposed offer and sale of any securities by it or
any of
its securities holders (other than a registration statement on Form X-0,
X-0, or
other limited purpose Form), the Company will give written notice of its
determination to do so to the Investor. Upon receipt of a written request
from
Investor, within twenty (20) days after receipt of any such notice from the
Company, the Company will cause all such Registrable Securities requested
by the
Investor to be included in such registration statement, all to the extent
required to permit the sale or other disposition by the Investor of such
shares.
The obligation of the Company under this Section 6(A)(4) shall be unlimited
as
to the number of registration statements to which it applies, unless the
Effectiveness Period has ended. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company
shall
have the right to postpone or withdraw any registration effect pursuant to
this
Section 6(A)(4) without obligation to the Investor. In addition, if any
registration effected pursuant to this Section 6(A)(4) is a registered public
offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Investor
as
a part of the written notice given pursuant to this Section 6(A)(4). In such
event, the right of the Investor to include Registrable Securities in such
registration pursuant to this Section 6(A)(4) shall be conditioned upon
Investor’s execution of an underwriting agreement upon customary terms with the
underwriter or underwriters selected for the underwriting by the Company.
If the
managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that marketing factors
require a limitation in the number of shares held by selling stockholders
to be
underwritten, the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in
such
Registration Statement and underwriting shall be allocated among all investors,
including the Investor, requesting registration in proportion, as nearly
as
practicable, to the respective number of shares of Registrable Securities
held
by them on the date the Company gives the notice specified in this Section
6(A)(4).
(5) All
fees,
disbursements and out-of-pocket expenses and costs incurred by the Company
in
connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement
and in
complying with applicable federal securities and Blue Sky laws (including,
without limitation, all attorneys' fees of the Company) shall be borne by
the
Company. The Investor shall bear the cost of underwriting and/or brokerage
discounts, fees and commissions, if any, applicable to the Registrable
Securities being registered and the fees and expenses of its counsel. The
Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to qualify any of the Securities
for sale in such states as any Investor reasonably designates. However, the
Company shall not be required to qualify in any state which will require
an
escrow or other restriction relating to the Company and/or the sellers, or
which
will require the Company to qualify to do business in such state or require
the
Company to file therein any general consent to service of process. If NASDR
Rule
2710 requires any broker-dealer to make a filing prior to executing a sale
by a
Purchaser of the Securities, make an issuer filing with the NASDR, Inc.
Corporate Financing Department pursuant to NASDR Rule 2710(b)(10)(A)(i) and
respond within five (5) Trading Days to any comments received from NASDR
in
connection therewith, and pay the filing fee required in connection therewith.
The Company, at its expense, will supply the Investor with copies of the
applicable Registration Statement and any prospectus included therein and
other
related documents in such quantities as may be reasonably requested by the
Investor.
(6) In
the
event that (i) the Registration Statement to be filed by the Company pursuant
to
Section 6(A)(2) is not declared effective by the SEC within the earlier of
one
hundred and twenty (120) days from the date of the sale of the Securities
or
five (5) days of clearance by the SEC to request effectiveness, (ii) such
Registration Statement is not maintained as effective by the Company for
the
period set forth in Section 6(A)(2) above (each a "Registration Default")
then
the Company will pay Investor (pro rated on a daily basis), as partial
compensation for such failure and not as a penalty, one and one-half percent
(1.5%) of the purchase price of the Registrable Securities purchased from
the
Company and held by the Investor for each month (or portion thereof) until
such
Registration Statement has been filed or declared effective or lapsed
effectiveness (in the case of clause (ii) above), one and one-half percent
(1.5%) of the purchase price of the Registrable Securities purchased from
the
Company and held by the Investor each month (or portion thereof) (regardless
of
whether one or more such Registration Defaults are then in existence, but
without duplication of such partial compensatory payments) until such
Registration Statement has been declared effective. Such compensatory payments
shall be made to the Investor in cash, within five (5) calendar days of demand,
provided, however, that the payment of such amounts shall not relieve the
Company from its obligations to register the Securities pursuant to this
Section.
If
the
Company does not remit the payment to the Investor as set forth above, the
Company will pay the Investor reasonable costs of collection, including
attorneys’ fees, in addition to the liquidated damages. The registration of the
Securities pursuant to this provision or payment of such compensatory amounts
shall not affect or limit the Investor’s other rights or remedies as set forth
in this Agreement or at law.
(B) The
Company shall be entitled to suspend the availability of any Registration
Statement, by providing notice thereof to the Investors, without incurring
or
accruing any obligation to pay liquidated damages pursuant to Section 6(A)(4),
no more than one (1) time in any three month period or three (3) times in
any
twelve month period, and any such period during which the availability of
the
Registration Statement is suspended (the "Deferral Period") shall, without
incurring any obligation to pay liquidated damages pursuant to Section 6(A)(4),
not exceed 30 days; provided
that the
aggregate duration of any Deferral Periods shall not exceed 15 days in any
three
month period or 40 days in any twelve (12) month period; provided
that in
the case of a Material Event relating to an acquisition or a probable
acquisition or financing, recapitalization, business combination or other
similar transaction, the Company may, without incurring any obligation to
pay
liquidated damages pursuant to Section 6(A)(4), deliver to the Holders a
second
notice to the effect set forth above, which shall have the effect of extending
the Deferral Period by up to an additional 30 days, or such shorter period
of
time as is specified in such second notice. As used herein, "Material Event"
shall mean the occurrence of any event or the existence of any fact as a
result
of which any Registration Statement shall contain any untrue statement of
a
material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.
(C) In
the
case of each registration effected by the Company pursuant to any section
herein, the Company will keep each shareholder advised in writing as to the
initiation of each registration and as to the completion thereof. At its
expense, the Company will:
(1) Keep
such
registration effective at least until such time as the Underlying Shares
are
eligible to have the restrictive legend removed pursuant to SEC Rule
144(k);
(2) Prepare
and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration
statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement
as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with
respect to a disposition of all securities covered by such registration
statement;
(3) Notify
the shareholders at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required
to
be delivered under the Act, of the happening of any event as a result of
which
the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect,
includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading or incomplete in light of the circumstances then existing,
and at
the request of the shareholders, prepare and furnish to them a reasonable
number
of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be
necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the shareholders, such prospectus
shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading or incomplete in light of the circumstances then
existing;
(4) Use
its
commercially reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop
order
or other suspension of effectiveness of a registration statement, and, if
such
an order is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the earliest
possible moment and to notify Investor (and, in the event of an underwritten
offering, the managing underwriter) of the issuance of such order and the
resolution thereof;
(5) Cause
all
shares which are registered in accordance with the provisions herein, to
be
listed or included for quotation on each exchange on which the shares of
Common
Stock are then listed or included for quotation;
(6) Provide
a
transfer agent and registrar for all such shares and CUSIP number for all
such
shares of Common Stock in each case not later than the effective date of
such
registration statement; and
(7) Otherwise
use its commercially reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable
rules
and regulations of the SEC.
(D)
To
the
extent Investor includes any Common Stock in a Registration Statement pursuant
to the terms hereof, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless Investor,
its
directors and officers, and each person, if any, who controls Investor within
the meaning of the Act, from and against, and will reimburse Investor, its
directors and officers and each controlling person with respect to, any and
all
loss, damage, liability, cost and expense to which Investor or such controlling
person may become subject under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses,
damages, liabilities, costs or expenses are caused by any untrue statement
or
alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in such registration
statement, any prospectus contained therein or any amendment or supplement
thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission
to
state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make
the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were
made,
not misleading; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in
any
such case to the extent that any such loss, damage, liability, cost or expense
arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished
by Investor or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use
in
the preparation thereof.
(E)
To
the
extent Investor includes any Underlying Shares in a Registration Statement
pursuant to the terms hereof, Investor will indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, its directors and officers and any controlling person from and against,
and will reimburse the Company, its directors and officers and any controlling
person with respect to, any and all loss, damage, liability, cost or expense
to
which the Company, its directors and officers or such controlling person
may
become subject under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, damages,
liabilities, costs or expenses are caused by any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in such registration statement,
any prospectus contained therein or any amendment or supplement thereto,
or
arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state
therein
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made,
not
misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such
untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was
so
made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
by or
on behalf of the Investor specifically for use in the preparation thereof
and
provided further, that the maximum amount that may be recovered from Investor
shall be limited to the amount of proceeds received by Investor from the
sale of
such shares of Common Stock.
(F)
To
the
extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited
by
law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with
respect
to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable hereunder to the extent
permitted by law, provided that (i) no contribution shall be made under
circumstances where the indemnifying party would not have been liable for
indemnification pursuant to the provisions hereof, (ii) no seller of securities
guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f)
of
the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any seller of securities
who was
not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation, and (iii) the amount of
the
contribution together with any other payments made in respect of such loss,
damage, liability or expense, by any seller of securities shall be limited
to
the net amount of proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such
securities.
(G)
The
Investor will cooperate with the Company in connection with this Subscription
Agreement, including timely supplying all information reasonably requested
by
the Company (which shall include all information regarding the Investor and
proposed manner of sale of securities required to be disclosed in any
registration statement filed in accordance with this Section 6) and executing
and returning all documents reasonably requested in connection with the
registration and sale of any securities being registered hereunder and entering
into and performing their obligations under any underwriting agreement, if
the
offering is an underwritten offering, in usual and customary form, with the
managing underwriter or underwriters of such underwritten offering.

TO
THE COMPANY AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SELECTED BY THE TRANSFEROR AND REASONABLY

ANY
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW OR (2) THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF
COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH NOTE MAY BE SOLD,

SHARES
PURSUANT TO RULE 144, OR (III) IF SUCH UNDERLYING SHARES ARE ELIGIBLE FOR

HOWEVER,
IN CONNECTION WITH THE ISSUANCE OF THE UNDERLYING SHARES, EACH INVESTOR,
SEVERALLY AND NOT JOINTLY WITH THE OTHER INVESTORS, HEREBY AGREES TO ADHERE

AND
REGULATIONS OF THE SEC. THE COMPANY SHALL CAUSE ITS COUNSEL TO ISSUE A
LEGAL
OPINION TO THE COMPANY’S TRANSFER AGENT PROMPTLY AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE IF

HEREUNDER. IF ALL OR ANY PORTION OF PREFERRED STOCK 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 ACT (INCLUDING JUDICIAL INTERPRETATIONS
THEREOF) THEN SUCH UNDERLYING SHARES SHALL BE ISSUED FREE OF ALL LEGENDS.
THE
COMPANY AGREES THAT FOLLOWING THE EFFECTIVE DATE OR AT SUCH TIME AS SUCH
LEGEND
IS NO LONGER REQUIRED UNDER THIS SECTION 6(H)(3), IT WILL, NO LATER THAN
THREE
(3) DAYS FOLLOWING THE DELIVERY BY AN INVESTOR TO THE COMPANY OR THE COMPANY'S

AGENT
OF THE COMPANY THAT ENLARGE THE RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER SET FORTH IN THIS
SECTION.
(4) EACH
INVESTOR, SEVERALLY AND NOT JOINTLY WITH THE OTHER INVESTORS, AGREES THAT
THE
REMOVAL OF THE RESTRICTIVE LEGEND FROM CERTIFICATES REPRESENTING SECURITIES
AS
SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 6(H) IS PREDICATED UPON THE COMPANY’S RELIANCE THAT
THE INVESTOR WILL SELL ANY SECURITIES PURSUANT TO EITHER THE REGISTRATION
REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT, INCLUDING ANY APPLICABLE PROSPECTUS DELIVERY
REQUIREMENTS, OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM.
