2. The following language shall be added to the end of Section 2.1:
"Each Investor acknowledges and agrees, however, that any New Securities purchased hereunder at a discount to the current market price of the Common Stock, within a six-month period of a prior purchase of the Company's securities at a discount to the market price, including the issuance of the Warrants, could be aggregated under guidelines of the American Stock Exchange ("Amex"), and, if as a result of such aggregation the aggregate number of securities of the Company purchased by the Investors at a discount to the current market price would exceed 19.99% of 16,967,785 (the number of outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock on March 31, 2005, prior to the Petra Loan), as such number of shares may be adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends and other recapitalizations, Amex approval (and, if required for Amex approval by Section 713 of the American Stock Exchange Company Guide, the approval of the Company's stockholders), could be a condition precedent to Investor's exercising its preemptive rights hereunder."
