power and authority to own or lease, as the case may be, and to operate its
properties and conduct its business as described in the Prospectus, and is
duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good
standing under the laws of each jurisdiction which requires such
qualification.
(d) All the outstanding shares of capital stock of each subsidiary have
been duly and validly authorized and issued and are fully paid and
nonassessable, and, except as otherwise set forth in the Prospectus, all
outstanding shares of capital stock of the subsidiaries are owned by the
Company either directly or through wholly owned subsidiaries free and clear
of any perfected security interest or any other security interests, claims,
liens or encumbrances.

the Prospectus; the capital stock of the Company conforms in all material
respects to the description thereof contained in the Prospectus; the
outstanding shares of Common Stock have been duly and validly authorized
and issued and are fully paid and nonassessable; the Securities have been

(f) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by
the Company and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Company
enforceable in accordance with its terms.

Securities by the Broker in the manner contemplated herein and in the
Prospectus.
(i) The Company has complied with all state blue sky laws and has made
the appropriate filings to sell the Securities in those states identified
on Annex A hereto.
(j) Neither the issue and sale of the Securities nor the consummation

the terms hereof will conflict with, result in a breach or violation or
imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets
of the Company or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to, (i) the charter or
by- laws of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) the terms of any

adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions, and the pro forma
adjustments reflect the proper application of those adjustments to the

to the best knowledge of the Company, threatened that (i) could reasonably
be expected to have a material adverse effect on the performance of this
Agreement or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated
hereby or (ii) could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse
effect on the condition (financial or otherwise), prospects, earnings,
business or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a
whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of
business, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Prospectus
(exclusive of any supplement thereto).
(n) The Company has not taken, directly or indirectly, any action that
has constituted or that was designed to or might reasonably be expected to
cause or result in, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, the stabilization
or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate
the sale or resale of the Securities.

(a) Each of the representations and warranties of the Company set forth
in this Agreement shall be true and correct as of the Execution Time, the
Closing Date and any settlement date pursuant to Section 4 hereof and the
Company shall have delivered to the Broker a certificate signed by an
executive officer of the Company, stating that this condition has been
satisfied.
(b) The Broker shall have received from Benesch, Friedlander, Xxxxxx &

the Closing Date and any settlement date pursuant to Section 4 hereof.
(d) The Company shall have furnished to the Broker such further
information, certificates and documents as the Broker may reasonably
request.
(e) The Registration Statement, and any amendment or amendments

8. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.
(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Broker, the
directors, officers, employees and agents of the Broker and each person who
controls any Broker within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act
(collectively, the "Broker Indemnitees") against any and all losses, claims,
damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may
become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state
statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or
are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact contained in the registration statement for the registration of the
Securities as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in any
Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof 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 not misleading, and agrees to reimburse
each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any
such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. The
8
9
Company shall, upon breaking escrow for the sale of a minimum of 1,000,000
shares of the Company's Common Stock, purchase Directors' and Officers'
Insurance which shall cover the Broker Indemnitees for any actions taken on
behalf of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not be
liable in any case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability
arises out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Broker. This
indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may
otherwise have.
(b) Promptly after receipt by a Broker Indemnitee under this Section 8 of
notice of the commencement of any action, such Broker Indemnitee will, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this Section 8,
notify the Company in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to
notify the Company (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a)
above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and
such failure results in the forfeiture by the Company of substantial rights and
defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the Company from any
obligations to a Broker Indemnitee other than the indemnification obligation
provided in paragraph (a) above. The Company shall be entitled to appoint
counsel of the Company's choice at the Company's expense to represent a Broker
Indemnitee in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the
Company shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any
separate counsel retained by the Broker Indemnitee or parties except as set
forth below); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such counsel shall be satisfactory to the
Broker Indemnitee. Notwithstanding the Company's election to appoint counsel to
represent the Broker Indemnitee in an action, the Broker Indemnitee shall have
the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the Company
shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if
(i) the use of counsel chosen by the Company to represent the Broker Indemnitee
would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or
potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the Broker
Indemnitee and the Company and the Broker Indemnitee shall have reasonably
concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other Broker
Indemnitiee(s) which are different from or additional to those available to the
Company, (iii) the Company shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the
Company to represent the Broker Indemnitee within a reasonable time after notice
of the institution of such action or (iv) the Company shall authorize the Broker
Indemnitee to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Company.
9. REPRESENTATIONS AND INDEMNITIES TO SURVIVE. The respective
agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the
Company or its officers and of the Broker set forth in or made pursuant to this
Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation
made by or on behalf of any Broker or the Company or any of the officers,
directors, employees, agents or controlling persons referred to in Section 8
hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. The
provisions of Sections 8 and 9 hereof shall survive the termination or
cancellation of this Agreement.
10. NOTICES. All communications hereunder will be in writing and
effective only on receipt, and, if sent to the parties at the addresses
identified on the signature page hereto.

10
11. SUCCESSORS. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the
officers, directors, employees, agents and controlling persons referred to in
Section 8 hereof, and no other person will have any right or obligation
hereunder.
12. APPLICABLE LAW. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois applicable to contracts made
and to be performed within the State of Illinois.
13. JURISDICTION; CONSENT TO SERVICE OF PROCESS.
(a) Each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for
itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States
District for the Northern District of Illinois (the "ILLINOIS COURT"), and
any appellate court from such court, in any suit, action or proceeding
arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or
enforcement of any judgment resulting from any such suit, action or
proceeding, and each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees
that all claims in respect of any such suit, action or proceeding may be
heard and determined in the Illinois Court.
(b) It will be a condition precedent to each party's right to bring any
such suit, action or proceeding that such suit, action or proceeding, in
the first instance, be brought in the Illinois Court (unless such suit,
action or proceeding is brought solely to obtain discovery or to enforce a
judgment), and if such court refuses to accept jurisdiction with respect
thereto, such suit, action or proceeding may be brought in any other court
with jurisdiction; provided that the foregoing will not apply to any suit,
action or other proceeding by a party seeking indemnification or
contribution pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise in respect of a suit,
action or proceeding against such party by a third party if such suit,
action or proceeding by such party seeking indemnification or contribution
is brought in the same court as the suit, action or proceeding against such
party.
(c) No party may move to (i) transfer any such suit, action or
proceeding from the Illinois Court to another jurisdiction, (ii)
consolidate any such suit, action or proceeding brought in the Illinois
court with a suit, action or proceeding in another jurisdiction, or (iii)
dismiss any such suit, action or proceeding brought in the Illinois Court
for the purpose of bringing the same in another jurisdiction.
(d) Each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the
fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, (i) any objection
which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit,
action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in the
Illinois Court, (ii) the defense of an inconvenient forum to the
maintenance of such suit, action or proceeding in any such court, and (iii)
the right to object, with respect to such
10
11
suit, action or proceeding, that such court does not have jurisdiction over
such party. Each party irrevocably consents to service of process in any
manner permitted by law.
14. EXPENSES. The Company will reimburse the Broker for all
reasonable out-of- pocket expenses (the "Expenses") incurred by the Broker in
connection with the sale of the Securities up to a maximum of Ten Thousand

documentation of the Expenses. These Expenses may include legal expenses of the
