covered by such Registration Statement;

each other person, if any, who controls each Holder within the meaning of
the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities,
joint or several, to which such Holder, or such persons may become subject
under the Securities Act 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 any
material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which such
Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act pursuant
to this Agreement, any preliminary Prospectus or final Prospectus
contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, 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 will reimburse such Holder, and
each such person for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by
them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not
be liable in any such case if and to the extent that any such loss, claim,
damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in
conformity with information furnished by or on behalf of the Purchaser or
any such person in writing specifically for use in any such document.
(b) In the event of a registration of the Registrable Securities
under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, the Purchaser will
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and its officers, directors and
each other person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of
the Securities Act, against all losses, claims, damages or liabilities,
joint or several, to which the Company or such persons may become subject
under the Securities Act 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 any
material fact which was furnished in writing by the Purchaser to the
Company expressly for use in (and such information is
5
contained in) the Registration Statement under which such Registrable
Securities were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to this
Agreement, any preliminary Prospectus or final Prospectus contained
therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, 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 will reimburse the Company and each such
person for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by them in
connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action, provided, however, that the Purchaser will be liable
in any such case if and only to the extent that any such loss, claim,
damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in
conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on
behalf of the Purchaser specifically for use in any such document.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph, the Purchaser shall not
be required to indemnify any person or entity in excess of the amount of
the aggregate net proceeds received by the Purchaser in respect of
Registrable Securities in connection with any such registration under the
Securities Act.
(c) Promptly after receipt by a party entitled to claim
indemnification hereunder (an "Indemnified Party") of notice of the
commencement of any action, such Indemnified Party shall, if a claim for
indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against a party hereto
obligated to indemnify such Indemnified Party (an "Indemnifying Party"),
notify the Indemnifying Party in writing thereof, but the omission so to
notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it from any liability
which it may have to such Indemnified Party other than under this Section
5(c) and shall only relieve it from any liability which it may have to
such Indemnified Party under this Section 5(c) if and to the extent the
Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action
shall be brought against any Indemnified Party and it shall notify the
Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party
shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to
assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such
Indemnified Party, and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to such
Indemnified Party of its election so to assume and undertake the defense
thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to such Indemnified
Party under this Section 5(c) for any legal expenses subsequently incurred
by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof; if the
Indemnified Party retains its own counsel, then the Indemnified Party
shall pay all fees, costs and expenses of such counsel, provided, however,
that, if the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified
Party and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have
reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to it
which are different from or additional to those available to the
Indemnifying Party or if the interests of the Indemnified Party reasonably
may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the Indemnifying Party,
the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select one separate counsel
and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to participate in the
defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such
separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be
reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party as incurred.
6
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in the
event of joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which
either (i) the Purchaser, or any officer, director or controlling person
of the Purchaser, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this
Section 5 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final
judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration
of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such
indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact
that this Section 5 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii)
contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of the
Purchaser or such officer, director or controlling person of the Purchaser
in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section
5; then, and in each such case, the Company and the Purchaser will
contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to
which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such
proportion so that the Purchaser is responsible only for the portion
represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its
securities offered by the Registration Statement bears to the public
offering price of all securities offered by such Registration Statement,
provided, however, that, in any such case, (A) the Purchaser will not be
required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price
of all such securities offered by it pursuant to such Registration
Statement; and (B) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the Act) will be
entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of
such fraudulent misrepresentation.
6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.
(a) The Common Stock of the Company is registered pursuant to
Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and, except with respect to
certain matters which the Company has disclosed to the Purchaser on
Schedule 4.21 to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company has timely
filed all proxy statements, reports, schedules, forms, statements and
other documents required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act. The
Company has filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal years
ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2004 and its Quarterly Reports on
Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2005, June 30, 2005 and
September 30, 2005 (collectively, the "SEC Reports"). To the knowledge of
the Company, the SEC Report was, at the time of its filing, in substantial
compliance with the requirements of its respective form and none of the
SEC Reports, nor the financial statements (and the notes thereto) included
in the SEC Reports, as of its respective filing date, contained any untrue
statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The
financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Reports comply as
to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements
and the published rules and regulations of the Commission or other
applicable rules and regulations with respect thereto. Such financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP") applied on a consistent basis during the
periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such
financial statements or the notes thereto or (ii) in the case of unaudited
interim statements, to the extent they may not include footnotes or may be
condensed) and fairly
7
present in all material respects the financial condition, the results of
operations and the cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries, on a
consolidated basis, as of, and for, the periods presented in each such SEC
Report.
(b) The Common Stock is listed for trading on the NASD
Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board ("OTCBB") and satisfies all requirements
for the continuation of such listing. The Company has not received any
notice that its Common Stock will be no longer quoted on the OTCBB (except
for prior notices which have been fully remedied) or that the Common Stock
does not meet all requirements for the continuation of such listing.
(c) Neither the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor any person
acting on its or their behalf, has directly or indirectly made any offers
or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under
circumstances that would cause the offering of the Securities pursuant to
the Securities Purchase Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by
the Company for purposes of the Securities Act which would prevent the
Company from selling the Common Stock pursuant to Rule 506 under the
Securities Act, or any applicable exchange-related stockholder approval
provisions, nor will the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries
take any action or steps that would cause the offering of the Securities
to be integrated with other offerings (other than such concurrent
offerings to the Purchaser).
(d) The Warrants, the Convertible Note and the shares of Common
Stock which the Purchaser may acquire pursuant to the Warrants and the
Convertible Note are all restricted securities under the Securities Act as
of the date of this Agreement. The Company will not issue any stop
transfer order or other order impeding the sale and delivery of any of the
Registrable Securities at such time as such Registrable Securities are
registered for public sale or an exemption from registration is available,
except as required by federal or state securities laws.
(e) The Company understands the nature of the Registrable Securities
issuable upon the conversion of the Convertible Note and the exercise of
the Warrants and recognizes that the issuance of such Registrable
Securities may have a potential dilutive effect. The Company specifically
acknowledges that its obligation to issue the Registrable Securities is
binding upon the Company and enforceable regardless of the dilution such
issuance may have on the ownership interests of other shareholders of the
Company.
(f) Except for agreements made in the ordinary course of business,
there is no agreement that has not been filed with the Commission as an
exhibit to a registration statement or to a form required to be filed by
the Company under the Exchange Act, the breach of which could reasonably
be expected to have a material and adverse effect on the Company and its
subsidiaries, or would prohibit or otherwise interfere with the ability of
the Company to enter into and perform any of its obligations under this
Agreement in any material respect.
8
(g) The Company will at all times have authorized and reserved a
sufficient number of shares of Common Stock for the full conversion of the
Convertible Note and exercise of the Warrants.
7. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) REMEDIES. In the event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder
of any of their respective obligations under this Agreement, each Holder
or the Company, as the case may be, in addition to being entitled to
exercise all rights granted by law and under this Agreement, including
recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its
rights under this Agreement.
(b) NO PIGGYBACK ON REGISTRATIONS. Except as and to the extent
specified in Schedule 4.15 to the Securities Purchase Agreement and on
SCHEDULE 7(B) hereto, neither the Company nor any of its security holders
(other than the Holders in such capacity pursuant hereto) may include
securities of the Company in any Registration Statement other than the
Registrable Securities, and the Company shall not after the date hereof
enter into any agreement providing any such right for inclusion of shares
in the Registration Statement to any of its security holders. Except as
and to the extent specified in Schedule 4.15 to the Securities Purchase
Agreement and on SCHEDULE 7(B) hereto, the Company has not previously
entered into any agreement granting any registration rights with respect
to any of its securities to any Person that have not been fully satisfied.
(c) COMPLIANCE. Each Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply
with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as
applicable to it in connection with sales of Registrable Securities
pursuant to any Registration Statement.
(d) DISCONTINUED DISPOSITION. Each Holder agrees by its acquisition
of such Registrable Securities that, upon receipt of a notice from the
Company of the occurrence of a Discontinuation Event (as defined below),
such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable
Securities under the applicable Registration Statement until such Holder's
receipt of the copies of the supplemented Prospectus and/or amended
Registration Statement or until it is advised in writing (the "Advice") by
the Company that the use of the applicable Prospectus may be resumed, and,
in either case, has received copies of any additional or supplemental
filings that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in
such Prospectus or Registration Statement. The Company may provide
appropriate stop orders to enforce the provisions of this paragraph. For
purposes of this Agreement, a "Discontinuation Event" shall mean (i) when
the Commission notifies the Company whether there will be a "review" of
such Registration Statement and whenever the Commission comments in
writing on such Registration Statement (the Company shall provide true and
complete copies thereof and all written responses thereto to each of the
Holders); (ii) any request by the Commission or any other Federal or state
governmental authority for amendments or supplements to such Registration
Statement or Prospectus or for additional information; (iii) the issuance
by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of such
Registration Statement covering any or all of the Registrable Securities
or the initiation of any
9
Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) the receipt by the Company of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or
exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale
in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding
for such purpose; and/or (v) the occurrence of any event or passage of
time that makes the financial statements included in such Registration
Statement ineligible for inclusion therein or any statement made in such
Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or
deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material
respect or that requires any revisions to such Registration Statement,
Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of such Registration
Statement or Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
(e) PIGGY-BACK REGISTRATIONS. If at any time during any
Effectiveness Period there is not an effective Registration Statement
covering all of the Registrable Securities required to be covered during
such Effectiveness Period and the Company shall determine to prepare and
file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering
for its own account or the account of others under the Securities Act of
any of its equity securities, other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as
promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating
to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any
acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in
connection with stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the
Company shall send to each Holder written notice of such determination
and, if within fifteen days after receipt of such notice, any such Holder
shall so request in writing, the Company shall include in such
registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities such
Holder requests to be registered to the extent the Company may do so
without violating registration rights of others which exist as of the date
of this Agreement, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to
all holders of registration rights and subject to obtaining any required
consent of any selling stockholder(s) to such inclusion under such
registration statement.
(f) AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. The provisions of this Agreement,
including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or
supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions
hereof may not be given, unless the same shall be in writing and signed by
the Company and the Holders of the then outstanding Registrable
Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart
from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates
exclusively to the rights of certain Holders and that does not directly or
indirectly affect the rights of other Holders may be given by Holders of
at least a majority of the Registrable Securities to which such waiver or
consent relates; provided, however, that the provisions of this sentence
may not be amended, modified, or supplemented except in accordance with
the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence.
