1. Amended Note. Simultaneously with the closing of the issuance and sale of the
Series A Notes to the Investors, the Company will execute, issue and deliver to the Purchasers an
amended Note (the “Amended Note”) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A in exchange for
the original Note, which the Purchasers agree to promptly surrender to the Company for
cancellation. Upon the issuance of the Amended Note, the Company shall have no further obligations
under the original Note.

the Purchasers of the Amended Note, the Company will execute and deliver to the Purchasers a
security agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Security Agreement”).
3. New Warrant. Simultaneously with the execution, issuance and delivery to the
Purchasers of the Amended Note, the Company will execute and deliver to the Purchasers a
warrant to purchase 500,000 shares of Common Stock, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the

outstanding, and the terms thereof are not modified hereby.
4. Intercreditor Agreement. Simultaneously with the execution, issuance and delivery

subordinated to the rights (including without limitation the registration rights) and security
interest of the Investors pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.
5. Waiver of Antidilution Rights. Purchasers expressly waive any adjustment to the
conversion price of the Note and the Amended Note, or to the exercise price of the Original Warrant
or the New Warrant, pursuant to the antidilution provisions of such instruments, that might
otherwise be required to be made as a result of the issuance of the Investor Notes or the Preferred
Stock, any warrants issued to the Investors in connection therewith, or any shares of Common Stock
or other securities of the Company issued or issuable on the conversion, exercise or exchange
thereof, or as payment of dividends or interest thereon.
6. Entire Agreement. Except to the extent expressly modified or amended by this
Agreement, the Amended Note, the Security Agreement, and the Intercreditor Agreement, the Agreement
remains in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. The Agreement, this Amendment, the
Amended Note, the Security Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Original Warrant and the New
Warrant constitute the entire agreement among the parties and supersede in all respects any other
agreement or understanding among the parties. No party will be liable or bound to any other party
in any manner by any warranties, representations, or covenants except as specifically set forth
herein or therein.
7. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of
which is deemed an original, but all of which together constitute one and the same instrument.
8. Severability. If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement may
be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, then the validity, legality, or
enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein will not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby.
9. Successors and Assigns. This Amendment is binding upon and inures to the benefit
of the Company and the Purchasers and their respective heirs, administrators, successors, and
assigns; provided, however, that the Company may not transfer its rights under this Agreement to
any other person without the prior written consent of Purchasers.

in accordance with the law of the State of Ohio, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws
principles of any jurisdiction, except to the extent that the Delaware General Corporation Law
shall govern.
