    (b)        maintain, keep and preserve all of its Properties necessary in the proper conduct of its businesses in good repair, working order and condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted) and make all necessary repairs, renewals and replacements and improvements thereto, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect;

    (c)        pay or discharge before becoming delinquent (a) all taxes, levies, assessments and governmental charges imposed on it or its income or profits or any of its Property and (b) all lawful claims for labor, material and supplies, which, if unpaid, might become a Lien (other than a Permitted Lien) upon any of its Property, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay or discharge any tax, levy, assessment or governmental charge, or claim for labor, material or supplies, whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings being diligently pursued and for which adequate reserves have been established under GAAP;

In the event that, as a result of an adjustment to the Conversion Price of the Debentures or the Exercise Price for the Warrants (pursuant to anti-dilution adjustments or otherwise), the Reserved Amount is less than 105% of the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon conversion of all of the Debentures and exercise of all of the Warrants then outstanding (without regard to any limitation or restriction on such conversion or exercise that may be set forth in the Debentures or the Warrants), the Company shall take action (including without limitation seeking stockholder approval for the authorization or reservation of additional shares of Common Stock) as soon as practicable (but in no event later than the tenth (10^th) business day or, in the event that stockholder approval is required, the sixtieth (60^th) day following such date) to increase the Reserved Amount to no less than 125% of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such outstanding Debentures are then convertible and such outstanding Warrants are exercisable. The Company shall not reduce the number of shares reserved for issuance hereunder without obtaining the written consent of the holders of two-thirds (2/3) of the Registrable Securities into which all of the Debentures and Warrants then outstanding are convertible or exercisable (without regard to any limitation on such conversion or exercise).

Each increase in the Reserved Amount shall be allocated pro rata among the Holders based on the amount of Registrable Securities into which all of the Debentures and Warrants held by such Holder at the time of such increase are convertible or exercisable (without regard to any limitation on such conversion or exercise). In the event that a Holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such Holder’s Debentures, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such transferor’s Reserved Amount. Any portion of the Reserved Amount which remains allocated to any person or entity which does not hold any Debentures shall be reallocated to the remaining Holders pro rata based on the amount of Registrable Securities into which all of the outstanding Debentures and Warrants at the time of such increase are convertible or exercisable (without regard to any limitation on such conversion or exercise).

provided, however, that no Restricted Payments may be made pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above if an Event of Default (or an event or circumstance that with the giving of notice or lapse of time would constitute an Event of Default) exists at the time of such Restricted Payment or would result therefrom.

        4.13 Company’s Instructions to Transfer Agent. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall execute and deliver irrevocable written instructions to the transfer agent for its Common Stock (the “Transfer Agent”), and provide each Investor with a copy thereof, directing the Transfer Agent (i) to issue certificates representing Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Debentures and receipt of a valid Conversion Notice (as defined in the Debentures) from an Investor, in the amount specified in such Conversion Notice, in the name of such Investor or its nominee, (ii) to issue certificates representing Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants and (iii) to deliver such certificates to such Investor no later than the close of business on the third (3rd) business day following the related Conversion Date (as defined in the Debentures) or Exercise Date (as defined in the Warrant), as the case may be. Such certificates may bear legends pursuant to applicable provisions of this Agreement or applicable law.

During the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date, neither the Company nor any of its majority-owned Subsidiaries shall issue, sell or enter into any agreement to issue or sell any capital stock or securities convertible or exercisable into, or exchangeable for, capital stock of the Company or any such Subsidiary (a “Proposed Offering”), unless the Company shall first have delivered to each Investor written notice of such Proposed Offering describing all of the material terms and conditions thereof (including the dollar amount of securities intended to be issued and sold), and attaching a copy of any executed offer letter or terms sheet relating to such Proposed Offering (an “Offer Notice”).

    (b)        Right to Participate. Each Investor shall have the right to purchase its pro rata share (determined by reference to the number of Shares purchased by such Investor under this Agreement as compared with the number of Shares purchased hereunder by all of the Investors) of twenty percent (20%) of the capital stock or securities convertible or exercisable into, or exchangeable for, capital stock of the Company or any such Subsidiary described in an Offer Notice (such percentage being referred to herein as the “Offered Securities”) on the same terms and conditions and in the same aggregate amount as are set forth therein, and may exercise such right by delivering written notice thereof to the Company within five (five) Trading Days following such Investor’s receipt of the Offer Notice. Each Investor may also purchase, on similar notice from the Company, its pro rata share of any of the Offered Securities not purchased by the other Investors.

    (c)        Sale to Third Party. In the event that the Investors do not purchase all of the Offered Securities, the Company or its Subsidiary, as the case may be, may sell such securities to any Person, but only if such sale is made on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in such Offer Notice. If the Company or such Subsidiary has not sold all of such Offered Securities within thirty (30) days following the date on which it delivered an Offer Notice to each Investor, the Company or such Subsidiary shall not sell any of such securities unless it first offers to sell such securities to the Investors in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section.

        4.15 Limitations on Disposition. Each Investor shall not sell, transfer, assign or dispose of any Securities, unless:

    (a)        there is then in effect an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement; or

    (b)        such Investor has notified the Company in writing of any such disposition, has obtained the Company’s prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld) and furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not require registration of such Securities under the Securities Act; provided, however, that no such consent or opinion of counsel will be required (A) if the sale, transfer or assignment is made to an Affiliate of such Investor, (B) if the sale, transfer or assignment is made pursuant to Rule 144 and such Investor provides the Company with evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company and its legal counsel that the proposed transaction satisfies the requirements of Rule 144 or (C) in connection with a bona fide pledge or hypothecation of any Securities under a margin arrangement with a broker-dealer or other financial institution.

In the event that any provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without said provision; provided that in such case the parties shall negotiate in good faith to replace such provision with a new provision which is not illegal, unenforceable or void, as long as such new provision does not materially change the economic benefits of this Agreement to the parties.

        6.2 Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and permitted assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement. The Investor may assign its rights and obligations hereunder, in connection with any private sale or transfer of the Debentures or Warrants in accordance with the terms hereof, as long as, as a condition precedent to such transfer, the transferee executes an acknowledgment agreeing to be bound by the applicable provisions of this Agreement, in which case the term “Investor” shall be deemed to refer to such transferee as though such transferee were an original signatory hereto. The Company may not assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement.

        6.3 No Reliance. Each party acknowledges that (i) it has such knowledge in business and financial matters as to be fully capable of evaluating this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, (ii) it is not relying on any advice or representation of any other party in connection with entering into this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or such transactions (other than the representations made in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents), (iii) it has not received from such party any assurance or guarantee as to the merits (whether legal, regulatory, tax, financial or otherwise) of entering into this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder, and (iv) it has consulted with its own legal, regulatory, tax, business, investment, financial and accounting advisors to the extent that it has deemed necessary, and has entered into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents based on its own independent judgment and on the advice of its advisors as it has deemed necessary, and not on any view (whether written or oral) expressed by such other party.

        6.4 Independent Nature of Investors’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Investor hereunder are several and not joint with the obligations of the other Investors hereunder, and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Investor hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered at the Closing, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Investor shall be entitled to 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 Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

        6.5 Injunctive Relief. The Company acknowledges and agrees that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to each Investor and that the remedy or remedies at law for any such breach will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of any such breach, in addition to all other available remedies, such Investor shall be entitled to an injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate and specific performance of such obligations without the necessity of showing economic loss.

        6.6 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within the State of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the non-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, 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 brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. 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 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.

        6.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

        6.8 Headings. The headings used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.

        6.9 Notices. Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be given by the Company or an Investor pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed delivered (i) when delivered personally or by verifiable facsimile transmission, unless such delivery is made on a day that is not a Business Day, in which case such delivery will be deemed to be made on the next succeeding Business Day, (ii) on the next Business Day after timely delivery to an overnight courier and (iii) on the Business Day actually received if deposited in the U.S. mail (certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid), addressed as follows:
