The Company and each of its subsidiaries is duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in all jurisdictions in which the nature of its activities and of its properties (both owned and leased) makes such qualification necessary, except for those jurisdictions in which failure to do so would not have a material adverse effect on such corporation or its business.

All corporate action on the part of the Company necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Note and the Warrant and the performance of all obligations of the Company hereunder and thereunder has been taken. This Agreement, the Note and the Warrant constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights, and (ii) general principles of equity that restrict the availability of equitable remedies.

Purchaser also understands that the Note and the Warrant are being offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration contained in the Securities Act based in part upon Purchaser’s representations contained in this Agreement.

Purchaser has been given the opportunity to obtain any additional information he deems necessary to verify the accuracy of any information obtained concerning the Note, the Warrant and the Company. Neither such inquiries nor any other investigation conducted by or on behalf of Purchaser or its representatives or counsel shall modify, amend or affect Purchaser’s right to rely on the truth, accuracy and completeness of the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement. Purchaser understands that an investment in the Note and Warrant involves significant risks.

In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to deliver to a Holder the Conversion Shares as required pursuant to this Note, and the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock (or a broker or trading counterparty through which the Holder has agreed to sell shares makes such purchase) to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Holder of the Conversion Shares which the Holder was entitled to receive from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Holder (in addition to honoring its obligation to deliver to Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Conversion Shares and any remedies available to or elected by the Holder) the amount by which (A) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of common stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate Conversion Price of the Conversion Shares required to have been delivered together with interest thereon at a rate of 5% per annum, accruing until such amount and any accrued interest thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty). For example, if a Holder purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to a Conversion Amount of $10,000 to have been received upon conversion of this Note, the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000, plus interest. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In, along with the appropriate supporting documentation for such purchase.
6. Transfer; Successors and Assigns. Subject to the restrictions set forth in the Agreement, this Note may be transferred only upon surrender of the original Note for registration of transfer, duly endorsed, or accompanied by a duly executed written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to Holder. Thereupon, a new note for the same principal amount and interest will be issued to, and registered in the name, of, the transferee. Interest and principal are payable only to the registered holder of this Note. The terms and conditions of this Note shall inure to the benefit of and binding upon the respective successors and assigns of the parties.
7. Governing Law. This Note and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law and choice of law that would cause the laws of any other jurisdiction to apply.

9. Amendments and Waivers.

Nothing in this paragraph shall affect the Holder’s right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to bring proceedings against the Company in any other court having jurisdiction.

2. Exercise of Warrant.
(a) The purchase rights represented by this Warrant are exercisable by the Holder, in whole or in part, during the Exercise Period by delivery of the form of Notice of Exercise attached hereto as Annex A (the “Notice of Exercise”) duly completed and executed by the Holder by e-mail or facsimile, to the Company at its principal executive office. The Holder shall deliver to the Company payment in cash, in lawful money of the United States of America, including by certified or official bank check made payable to the order of the Company or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company, of an amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common being purchased pursuant to such exercise of the Warrant within two (2) business days of delivery of the Notice of Exercise. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each exercise of this Warrant shall be as set forth in the Notice of Exercise delivered to the Company by the Holder; provided that the Notice of Exercise is submitted by facsimile or e-mail (or by other means resulting in, or reasonably expected to result in, notice) to the Company before 6:00 p.m., New York, New York time on such exercise date.
(b) This Warrant may be exercised for less than the full number of shares of Common Stock calculated above, provided that this Warrant may not be exercised in part for less than a whole number of shares of Common Stock. Upon any such partial exercise, the Company at its expense will forthwith issue to the Holder a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor exercisable for the number of shares of Common Stock as to which rights have not been exercised (subject to adjustment as herein provided), such Warrant or Warrants to be issued in the name of the Holder or its nominee.
(c) As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant and in any event within ten (10) business days after the Exercise Price is paid as set forth above for an exercise for cash, the Company, at its expense, will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder a certificate or certificates for the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise, plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled, cash in an amount determined in accordance with Section 3(d) hereof. The Company agrees that the shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for such shares as aforesaid.
(d) Prior to the exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall not be entitled to any rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to shares for which this Warrant shall be exercisable, including, without limitation, the right to vote, to receive dividends or other distributions or to exercise any preemptive rights, and shall not be entitled to receive any notice of any proceedings of the Company.
14
(e) In the event that the Company proposes to engage in a Change in Control, it shall give the Holder written notice of its intention not less than ten (10) days prior to the date of the proposed closing of such transaction. The notice shall describe the material terms and conditions upon which the Company proposes to consummate such transaction.
3. Adjustments.
(a) Adjustments Generally. In order to prevent dilution of the rights granted hereunder in the specific circumstances contemplated by this Section 3, the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with this Section 3. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 3(b) and 3(c) (but not Section 3(d)), the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to acquire upon exercise, at the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of shares of Common Stock determined by (i) multiplying (A) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by (B) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise hereof immediately prior to such adjustment, and (ii) dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment; provided that no such adjustments shall be made in the Exercise Price and/or the number of shares of Common Stock subject to this Warrant if the conversion ratio of the Common Stock already reflects such event.
(b) Subdivisions, Stock Dividends and Recapitalizations. In case the Company shall at any time subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares (including, without limitation, through any stock split effected by means of a dividend on the Common Stock which is payable in Common Stock), the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced, and, conversely, in case the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased, unless the conversion ratio of such Common Stock already reflects such event.
(c) Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets. If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation, or the sale of a significant amount of assets to another corporation shall be effected in such a way that (i) does not constitute a Change in Control, and (ii) holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities, cash or other property with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder shall have the right to acquire and receive upon exercise of this Warrant such shares of stock, securities, cash or other property of the successor corporation that a holder of the shares deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled to receive in such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale. The foregoing provisions shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers or sales and to the stock or securities of any other corporation that are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant. In all events, appropriate adjustments (as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder after the transaction, to the end that the provisions of this Warrant shall be applicable after that event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other property deliverable after that event upon exercise of this Warrant.
15
(d) Share Issuance. If, at any time after the date hereof while the Warrant is outstanding, the Company shall make a Dilutive Issuance (as defined below), for a price per share that is less than the Exercise Price that would be in effect at the time of such Dilutive Issuance, then, and thereafter successively upon each such Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price per share in the Dilutive Issuance and if more than one Dilutive Issuance occurs while this Warrant is exercisable, the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price per share in the Dilutive Issuance with the lowest price per share. In such event, the number of shares of Common Stock which may be acquired upon exercise of this Warrant shall not change. The reduction of the Exercise Price described in this paragraph is in addition to the other rights hereunder.
A “Dilutive Issuance” shall mean the issuance by the Company, other than an Excepted Issuance (as defined below) of any Common Stock, security or debt instrument carrying the right to convert such security or debt instrument into Common Stock, or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock with a purchase price, exercise price or conversion price less than the Exercise Price. A Dilutive Issuance for no consideration will be deemed issuable or to have been issued for $0.001 per share of Common Stock.
For purposes of this Warrant, “Excepted Issuance” shall mean (i) any issuance or sale by the Company of its securities as full or partial consideration in connection with a strategic merger, acquisition, consolidation or purchase of the securities or assets of a corporation or other entity (or any division or business unit thereof) so long as such issuances are not for the purpose of raising capital, (ii) any issuance of securities in connection with strategic supply, sale or license agreements and other partnering arrangements so long as such issuances are not for the purpose of raising capital, (iii) any issuance of securities upon the conversion or exercise of options or convertible securities issued on or prior to the date hereof, or (iv) any issuance of shares of Common Stock in connection with employee benefit plans and compensation related arrangements in the ordinary course and consistent with past practice approved by the Board of Directors.
(e) Fractional Shares. The Company shall not issue fractions of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant or scrip in lieu thereof. If any fraction of a share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of this Section 3(e), be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, then the Company shall in lieu thereof pay to the person entitled thereto an amount in cash equal to the current value of such fraction, calculated to the nearest one-hundredth (1/100) of a share, to be computed on the basis of the fair market value per share as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
16
(e) Certificate as to Adjustments. Whenever the Exercise Price shall be adjusted as provided in Section 3 hereof, the Company shall promptly compute such adjustment and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment and showing in reasonable detail the facts requiring such adjustment, the Exercise Price that will be effective after such adjustment and the number of shares and the amount, if any, of other property that at the time would be received upon the exercise of this Warrant.
4. Reservation of Stock Issuable on Exercise of Warrants. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued stock, solely for the issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant and other similar Warrants, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as from time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant and other similar Warrants. All of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and other similar Warrants, when issued and delivered in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, subject to no lien or other encumbrance other than restrictions on transfer arising under applicable securities laws and restrictions imposed by Section 6(a) hereof and the Agreements to which reference is made in Section 6(c) hereof.
5. Replacement of Warrant. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Company (with surety if reasonably required), or (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation thereof, the Company will issue, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor and amount.
6. Negotiability. This Warrant is issued upon the following terms:
(a) Transfer. By acceptance hereof, the Holder acknowledges and agrees that the Holder is acquiring the Warrant and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise hereof for investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof, and Holder has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same.
(b) Subject to compliance with clause (e) of this Section 6, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon the books of the Company by the registered holder hereof in person or by duly authorized attorney, and a new warrant shall be made and delivered by the Company, of the same tenor and date as this Warrant but registered in the name of one or more transferees, upon surrender of this Warrant, duly endorsed, to the Company. All expenses (other than stock transfer taxes) and other charges payable in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the new warrants pursuant to this Section 6 shall be paid by the Company.
17
(c) Agreements. As a condition to the Company’s obligation to issue shares of Common Stock upon exercise hereof, the Holder shall execute the Notice of Exercise attached hereto as Annex A.
(d) Transfer Taxes. The Company shall not be required to pay any federal or state transfer tax or charge that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the transfer or delivery of this Warrant or the issuance or delivery of certificates for Common Stock in a name other than that of the Holder or to issue or deliver any certificates for Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant until any and all such taxes and charges shall have been paid by the Holder or until it has been established to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction that no such tax or charge is due.
(e) Compliance with Securities Laws. The Holder, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this Warrant, the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely for the Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and for investment, and that the Holder will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, any shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof except under circumstances that will not result in a violation of applicable federal and state securities laws.
7. Subdivision of Rights. Subject to Section 6, this Warrant (as well as any new Warrants issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7) is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Holder, at the principal executive office of the Company for any number of new Warrants of like tenor and date representing in the aggregate the right to subscribe for and purchase the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company which may be subscribed for and purchased hereunder.
8. Miscellaneous.
(a) Notices. Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing by facsimile, e-mail, mail or personal delivery and shall be effective upon delivery of such notice. The addresses for such communications shall be to the addresses as shown on the books of the Company or to the Company at the address set forth in the Purchase Agreement. A party may from time to time change the address to which notices to it are to be delivered or mailed hereunder by notice in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8(a).
(b) Books of the Company. The Company may treat the holder hereof as appearing on the Company’s books at any time as the holder for all purposes.
(c) Headings. The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of reference only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.
18
(d) Amendment; Waiver. This Warrant and any term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. No waivers of any term, condition or provision of this Warrant, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be, or construed as, a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition or provision.
(e) Benefits of this Warrant. Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give any person or corporation other than the Company and the Holder any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Warrant and this Warrant shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company and the Holder and any other permitted holder or holders of the Warrant.
