WHEREAS, the Purchaser desires to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, $.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
Accordingly, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

The Company hereby sells to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser hereby purchases from the Company, _______ shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”), at an exercise price of $0.479 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $______.

Promptly following the execution of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall pay the full amount of the purchase price to the Company by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Company. Within five business days after receiving the full amount of the purchase price, the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser a certificate registered in the Purchaser’s name representing the Shares.
2. Warrants.

The Holder and the Company have entered into a Warrant Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, governing the terms of the warrant and the Warrant Shares issuable thereunder.
3. Representations and Warranties. As a material inducement for the Company’s issuance and sale of the Shares, the Warrant and any Warrant Shares, the undersigned represents, warrants, covenants and acknowledges to the Company that:
(a) The Purchaser understands that the issuance of the Shares and the Warrant has not been, and any issuance of the Warrant Shares will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or applicable state securities laws. Instead, the Company is issuing the Shares and the Warrant, and will issue any Warrant Shares, pursuant to exemptions from such laws and in doing so is and would be relying on, among other things, the Purchaser’s representations, warranties, covenants and acknowledgements contained herein.

(e) The Purchaser is aware that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission, a purchase of the Shares, the Warrant or any Warrant Shares with an intent to resell by reason of any foreseeable specific contingency or anticipated change in market values, or any change in the Company’s condition, or in connection with a contemplated liquidation or settlement of any loan obtained for the acquisition of the Shares, the Warrant or any Warrant Shares and for which the Shares, the Warrant or any Warrant Shares were pledged, would constitute an intent inconsistent with the foregoing representation.
(f) If, contrary to the Purchaser’s foregoing intentions, he should later desire to dispose of or transfer any of the Shares, the Warrant or any Warrant Shares in any manner, the undersigned shall not do so without (i) first obtaining an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that such proposed disposition or transfer may lawfully be made without registration pursuant to the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or (ii) registering the resale of the Shares and any Warrant Shares under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
(g) Except as otherwise provided in the Warrant or the registration rights provisions attached as Exhibit B hereto, the Company has no obligation to register the Shares, the Warrant or any Warrant Shares for resale under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws, or to take any other action which would facilitate the availability of federal or state registration exemptions in connection with any resale of the Shares, the Warrant or any Warrant Shares. Accordingly, the Purchaser may be prohibited by law from selling or otherwise transferring or disposing of the Shares, the Warrant or any Warrant Shares and may have to bear the economic risk of his investment in the Company for an indefinite period.
