foregoing filed prior to the date hereof and all exhibits included therein and

reference therein being hereinafter referred to as the "SEC Documents"). As of
their respective dates, the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with
the requirements of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC
promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Documents, and none of the SEC
Documents, at the time they were filed with the SEC, contained any untrue
statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. As of their
respective dates, the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC
Documents complied as to form in all material respects with applicable
accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with

or omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstance under which they are or were made, not
misleading. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or any of their
officers, directors, employees or agents have provided the Buyers with any

the Company or any of its Subsidiaries have any knowledge or reason to believe
that its creditors intend to initiate involuntary bankruptcy proceedings.

threatened against or affecting the Company, the Company's common stock, the

h. No Integrated Offering. 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 require registration of any of
the Securities under the 1933 Act or cause this offering of the Securities to be
integrated with prior offerings by the Company to third parties other than the
Buyers and other Purchasers for purposes of the 1933 Act so as to render invalid
the exemption from registration provided under Regulation D or any applicable
stockholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules
and regulations of any exchange or automated quotation system on which any of
the securities of the Company are listed or designated, nor will the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries take any action or steps that would require registration
of any of the Securities under the 1933 Act or cause the offering of the
Securities to be integrated with other offerings so as to render invalid the
exemption from registration provided under Regulation D.
i. No Undisclosed Events, Liabilities, Developments or Circumstances. No
event, liability, development or circumstance has occurred or exists, or is
contemplated to occur, with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries or their

securities laws on a registration statement filed with the SEC relating to an
issuance and sale by the Company of the Company Common Stock and which has not
been publicly announced.
j. No General Solicitation. Neither the Company, nor any of its

inventions, licenses, approvals, government authorizations, trade secrets or
other intellectual property rights have expired or terminated, or are expected

successor thereto), or (ii) the date on which the Investors shall have sold all
the Shares and Warrant Shares (the "Registration Period"), the Company shall
file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the 1934 Act, and

d. Rule 903(c)(3)(iii)(B)(4) Covenant. This section omitted.
e. Right of First Refusal. Subject to the rights of Ladenburg Xxxxxxxx &
Co. ("LT&C") as set forth in that certain investment banking agreement with the
Company, dated April 11, 2000 (the "Investment Banking Agreement") and subject
to the exceptions described below, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not
negotiate or contract with any party for any equity financing (including any
debt financing with an equity component) or issue any equity securities of the
Company or any Subsidiary or securities convertible or exchangeable into or for
equity securities of the Company or any Subsidiary (including debt securities
with an equity component) in any form ("Future Offerings") during the period
beginning on the date hereof and ending on, and including, the date which is 180
days after the Closing Date, unless it shall have first delivered to Buyers
written notice (the "Future Offering Notice") describing the proposed Future
Offering, including the terms and conditions thereof, and providing each Buyer
an option to purchase up to its Aggregate Percentage (as defined below) of the
securities to be issued in such Future Offering, as of the date of delivery of
the Future Offering Notice, in the Future Offering (the limitations referred to
in this sentence is referred to as the "Capital Raising Limitations"). For
purposes of this Section 4(e), "Aggregate Percentage" at any time with respect
to any Buyer shall mean the percentage obtained by dividing (i) the aggregate
number of the Shares purchased by such Buyer by (ii) the aggregate number of
Company Common Stock sold to Buyers and Other Purchasers in the Offering. A
Buyer can exercise its option to participate in a Future Offering by delivering
to the Company written notice thereof to participate to the Company within five
(5) business days after receipt of a Future Offering Notice by Buyers' Designee,
which notice shall state the quantity of securities being offered in the Future
Offering that such Buyer will purchase, up to its Aggregate Percentage, and that
number of securities it is willing to purchase in excess of its Aggregate
Percentage. In the event that one or more Buyers fail to elect to purchase up to
each such Buyer's Aggregate Percentage, then each Buyer which has indicated that
it is willing to purchase a number of securities in such Future Offering in
excess of its Aggregate Percentage shall be entitled to purchase its pro rata
portion (determined in the same manner as described in the preceding sentence)
of the securities in the Future Offering which one or more of the Buyers have
not elected to purchase. In the event the Buyers fail to elect to fully
participate in the Future Offering within the periods described in this Section
4(e), the Company shall have 45 days thereafter to sell the securities of the
Future Offering that the Buyers did not elect to purchase, upon terms and
conditions no more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the
Future Offering Notice. In the event the Company has not sold such securities of
the Future Offering within such 45 day period, the Company shall not
10
thereafter issue or sell such securities without first offering such securities
to the Buyers in the manner provided in this Section 4(e). In the event a Buyer
exercises its option to participate in a Future Offering and such Buyer fails to
purchase its Aggregate Percentage of the securities offered by the Company
through such Future Offering (other than as a result of the Company's breach of
its obligations concerning such Future Offering) then notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Section 4(e), such Buyer shall then forfeit
its right to first refusal with respect to such Future Offering and any later
Future Offering. The Capital Raising Limitations shall not apply to (i) a loan
from a commercial bank or any other institutional lender which does not have any
equity feature, (ii) any transaction involving the Company's issuances of
securities (A) as consideration in a merger or consolidation, or (B) as
consideration for the acquisition of a business, product, license or other
assets by the Company, (iii) the issuance of securities in a firm commitment,
underwritten public offering, (iv) the issuance of securities upon exercise or
conversion of the Company's options, warrants or other convertible securities
outstanding as of the date hereof or other contractual commitments in effect
prior to the Closing Date, (v) the grant of additional options or warrants, or
the issuance of additional securities, under any Company stock option plan,
restricted stock plan or stock purchase plan for the benefit of the Company's
employees, directors, consultants or advisors; or (vi) the Company's issuance of
equity securities pursuant to any significant investment made by any entity or
business engaged in the same industry or business of the Company in connection
with a research, development, marketing, supply or similar arrangement. The
Buyers shall not be required to participate or exercise their right of first
refusal with respect to a particular Future Offering in order to exercise their
right of first refusal with respect to later Future Offerings.
f. Listing. The Company shall promptly secure the listing of all of the
Registrable Securities (as that term is defined in the Registration Rights
Agreement) and shall use its best efforts to maintain, so long as any other
shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all Registrable
Securities from time to time issuable under the terms of the Transaction
Documents. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall take any action
which would be reasonably expected to result in the delisting or suspension of
Company Common Stock on Nasdaq. The Company shall promptly, and in no event
later than the following business day, provide to each Buyer copies of any
notices it receives from the Nasdaq regarding the continued eligibility of
Company common stock for listing on such automated quotation system or
securities exchange. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection
with satisfying its obligations under this Section 4(f).
g. Reservation of Shares. The Company shall take all action necessary to
at all times have authorized; and reserved for the purpose of issuance, no less
than 100% of the number of shares of common stock needed to provide for the
issuance of the shares of Warrant Shares upon exercise of all outstanding
Warrants.
h. [Reserved.]
i. Limitation on Filing Registration Statements. Except to comply with
the rights of LT&C as set forth in the Investment Banking Agreement and the
investor or investors
11
contemplated by the Investment Banking Agreement, the Company shall not file a
registration statement other than (A) the Registration Statement (as defined in
the Registration Rights Agreement) or (B) a registration statement covering the
sale or resale of shares of Company common stock issued or issuable upon the
exercise of options or rights granted under an employee benefit plan, as defined
in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act with the SEC during the period beginning on the
date hereof and ending on the date which is 90 days after the Registration
Statement has been declared effective by the SEC.
j. Independent Auditors. The Company shall, until at least three (3)
years after the Closing Date, maintain as its independent auditors an accounting
firm authorized to practice before the SEC.
k. Corporate Existence and Taxes. The Company shall, until at least the
later of (i) the date that is three (3) years after the Closing Date or (ii) the
sale of all of the Common Shares purchased pursuant to this Agreement, maintain
its corporate existence in good standing (provided, however, that the foregoing
covenant shall not prevent the Company from entering into any merger or
corporate reorganization as long as the surviving entity in such transaction, if
not the Company, has common stock listed for trading on Nasdaq, the New York
Stock Exchange or the American Stock Exchange; and (iii) shall pay all its taxes
when due except for taxes which the Company disputes).
5. TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS. The Company shall issue irrevocable
instructions to StockTrans, Inc., as transfer agent (the "Transfer Agent"), and
any subsequent transfer agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto
(the "Transfer Agent Instructions"). Prior to registration of the Shares and
Warrant Shares under the 1933 Act, all such certificates shall bear the
restrictive legend specified in Section 2(g) of this Agreement. The Company
warrants that no instruction other than the Transfer Agent Instructions referred
to in this Section 5, and stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section
2(f) hereof, will be given by the Company to its Transfer Agent and that the
Securities shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of
the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the Registration
Rights Agreement. Nothing in this Section 5 shall affect in any way each Buyer's
obligations and agreements set forth in Section 2(g) to comply with all
applicable prospectus delivery requirements, if any, upon resale of the
Securities. If a Buyer provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in a
form reasonably acceptable to Company counsel, to the effect that a public sale,
assignment or transfer of the Securities may be made without registration under
the 1933 Act or the Buyer provides the Company with reasonable assurances that
the Securities have been or are to be sold pursuant to Regulation S or Rule 144
without any restriction as to the number of securities acquired as of a
particular date that can then be immediately sold, the Company shall permit the
transfer, and, promptly instruct its Transfer Agent to issue one or more
certificates in such name and in such denominations as specified by such Buyer
and without any restrictive legend. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it
of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Buyers by
vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby.
Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its
obligations under this Section 5
12
will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by
the Company of the provisions of this Section 5, that the Buyers shall be
entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or
injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer,
without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other
security being required.
6. CONDITIONS TO THE COMPANY'S OBLIGATION TO SELL.
The obligation of the Company hereunder to issue and sell the Common
Shares and Warrants to each Buyer at the Closing is subject to the satisfaction,
at or before the Closing Date, of each of the following conditions, provided
that these conditions are for the Company's sole benefit and may be waived by
the Company at any time in its sole discretion by providing each Buyer with
prior written notice thereof:
a. Such Buyer shall have executed each of the Transaction Documents to
which it is a party and delivered the same to Company.
b. The representations and warranties of such Buyer shall be true and
correct in all material respects as of the date when made and as of the Closing
Date as though made at that time (except for representations and warranties that
speak as of a specific date), and such Buyer shall have performed, satisfied and
complied in all material respects with the covenants, agreements and conditions
required by this Agreement to be performed, satisfied or complied with by such
Buyer at or prior to the Closing Date.
c. Such Buyer shall have delivered to the Company such other documents
relating to the transactions as are contemplated by this Agreement.
d. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
including without limitation Section 11(l) below, in the event that the closing
sale price for the Company Common Stock (as quoted on the Nasdaq) on the Closing
Date is less than $6.00 per common share, then the Company may unilaterally
terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to the Buyers, and all of
the obligations of the Buyers and the Company as contemplated in this Agreement
shall be automatically terminated.
(e) The gross proceeds from the sale of Units in the Offering shall
equal or exceed $5,600,000.
7. CONDITIONS TO EACH BUYER'S OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE.
The obligation of each Buyer hereunder to purchase the Units at the
Closing is subject to the satisfaction, at or before the Closing Date, of each
of the following conditions, provided that these conditions are for each Buyer's
sole benefit and may be waived by such Buyer at any time in its sole discretion
by providing the Company with prior written notice thereof:
13
a. The Company shall have executed each of the Transaction Documents and
delivered the same to the Buyers.
b. The Company's common stock shall be authorized for quotation on
Nasdaq and trading in Company common stock shall not have been suspended by the
SEC or Nasdaq.
c. The representations and warranties of the Company shall be true and
correct as of the date when made and as of the Closing Date as though made at
that time (except for representations and warranties that speak as of a specific
date) and the Company shall have performed, satisfied and complied with the
covenants, agreements and conditions required by the Transaction Documents to be
performed, satisfied or complied with by the Company at or prior to the Closing
Date.
d. The Company shall have delivered to the Buyers the opinion of the
Company's counsel dated as of the Closing Date, in substantially the form of
Exhibit C attached hereto.
e. The Transfer Agent Instructions, in the form of Exhibit B attached
hereto, shall have been delivered to and acknowledged in writing by the
Company's transfer agent and a copy of the executed Transfer Agent Instructions
shall have been delivered to the Buyers.
f. The Company shall have made all filings, other than those
contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement, under all applicable federal
and state securities laws necessary to consummate the issuance of the Securities
pursuant to this Agreement in compliance with such laws.
g. The Company shall have delivered to the Buyers such other documents
relating to the transactions as are contemplated by this Agreement.
(h) The gross proceeds from the sale of Units in the Offering shall
equal or exceed $5,600,000.
8. INDEMNIFICATION.
In consideration of each Buyer's execution and delivery of the
Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to
all of the Company's other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the
Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Buyer and each
other holder of the Securities and all of their stockholders, officers,
directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing
person's agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those
retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement)
(collectively, the "Indemnitees") from and against any and all actions, causes
of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and
14
damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such
Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is
sought), and including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements (the
"Indemnified Liabilities"), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or
arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any
representation or warranty made by the Company in the Transaction Documents or
any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby,
(b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained
in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document
contemplated hereby or thereby, (c) any cause of action, suit or claim brought
or made against such Indemnitee and arising out of or resulting from the
execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Transaction Documents or
any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby,
(d) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or
indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities or (e) the
status of such Buyer or holder of the Securities as an investor in the Company.
To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable
for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment
and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible
under applicable law.
9. ANTI-DILUTION ADJUSTMENTS.
a. Dividend, Subdivision, Combination or Reclassification of Company
Common Stock. If the Corporation shall, at any time or from time to time, (a)
declare a dividend on the Company common stock payable in shares of its capital
stock (including Company common stock) or, (b) subdivide the outstanding Company
common stock or, (c) combine the outstanding Company common stock into a smaller
number of shares, or (d) issue any shares of its capital stock in a
reclassification of the Company common stock (excluding any such
reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the
Corporation is the continuing corporation), then in each such case, the number
of shares of Company common stock constituting the Common Shares at the time of
the record date for such dividend or of the effective date of such subdivision,
combination or reclassification and the number and kind of Common Shares on such
date shall be proportionately adjusted by virtue of such dividend, subdivision,
combination or reclassification. Any such adjustment to the Common Shares shall
become effective immediately after the record date of such dividend or the
effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification. Such
adjustment to the Common Shares shall be made successively whenever any event
listed above shall occur.
b. Issuance of Common Stock or Rights to Purchase Company Common Stock
Below Offering Price. Prior to the registration of the Common Shares pursuant to
an effective Registration Statement (as described in the Registration Rights
Agreement), if the Company shall, at any time or from time to time, issue
Company common stock or instruments convertible or exercisable into Company
common stock (other than Company common stock issued or issuable pursuant to an
employee stock option incentive plan or Company common stock issued or issuable
pursuant to options, warrants, convertible securities outstanding as of the
Closing Date or other contractual commitments in effect prior to the Closing
Date or in connection with a merger or other
15
business combination or reorganization of the Company) at a price per common
stock share, a conversion price per common stock share or an exercise price per
common stock share less than the Units Purchase Price per common stock share
(such lesser price shall be deemed the "Differential Price"), then the Company
shall issue additional shares of Company common stock to the Buyers equal to the
Share Differential Amount. The Share Differential Amount shall equal the sum of
(i) the amount determined by dividing the Differential Price into the Buyers'
aggregate Purchase Price, less (ii) the number of Common Shares purchased by the
Buyer at the Closing. Any such additional shares of common stock after issuance
shall be deemed to be Common Shares for purposes of this Agreement and shall
have the registration rights set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement.
10. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES.
The Company agrees that a Buyer will suffer damages if the Company
violates any provision of or fails to fulfill any of its obligations or duties
pursuant to the Transaction Documents (other than the Registration Rights
Agreement) and such violation or failure directly or indirectly restricts such
Buyer from selling, transferring or disposing of its Common Shares (a "Company
Violation"), and that it would not be possible to ascertain the extent of such
damages. Accordingly, in the event of such Company Violation, the Company hereby
agrees to pay liquidated damages ("Liquidated Damages") to such Buyer following
the occurrence of such Company Violation in an amount determined by multiplying
(i) two percent (2%) of the Units Purchase Price per Common Share then held by
such Buyer by (ii) the percentage derived by dividing (A) the actual number of
days elapsed from the first day of the date that an uncured Company Violation
occurred or the end of the prior 30-day period, as applicable, to the day all
Company Violations have been completely cured, by (B) 30. Liquidated Damages
shall be paid in cash, or at the Buyer's option, in the number of shares of
Company common stock equal to the quotient of (v) the dollar amount of the
Liquidated Damages due on the Payment Date (as defined below) divided by (w) the
closing bid price of the Company's common stock (as quoted in the Principal
Market or the market or exchange where the Company's common stock is then
traded) as of the first day that an uncured Company Violation occurred. The
Liquidated Damages payable pursuant hereto shall be payable within five (5)
business days from the end of the 30-day period commencing on the first 30-day
period in which the Company Violation occurs (each, a "Payment Date"). In the
event the Liquidated Damages are paid in shares of Company common stock, such
shares shall also be considered Common Shares and shall have the registration
rights set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein, (a) no Liquidated Damages shall be payable under this
paragraph in respect of any Company Violation which also constitutes a
Registration Default under the Registration Rights Agreement entered into by
Buyers and the Company as of the date of this Agreement, (b) in no event shall
the Company issue shares of common stock pursuant to this Section 10 which, when
added to other Securities purchased by Buyers pursuant to this Agreement, would
(i) result in a change of control of the Company, or (ii) represent 20% or more
of the total number of shares of common stock or voting power of the Company
outstanding immediately prior to the Closing Date, and (c) the Company shall
have the right to pay Liquidated Damages in cash irrespective of any Buyer's
election to receive shares of Company common stock in settlement thereof if the
closing bid
16
price for the Company's common stock as determined in accordance with clause (w)
above is less than the Buyer Offering Per Share Purchase Price per share.
11. GOVERNING LAW; MISCELLANEOUS.
a. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. This Agreement shall be
governed by and construed in all respects by the internal laws of the State of
Illinois (except for the proper application of the United States federal
securities laws), without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law
provision or rule (whether of the State of Illinois or any other jurisdictions)
that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the
State of Illinois. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of Chicago.
EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO
REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN
CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION
CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
b. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same
agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each
party and delivered to the other party; provided that a facsimile signature
shall be considered due execution and shall be binding upon the signatory
thereto with the same force and effect as if the signature were an original, not
a facsimile signature.
c. Headings. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of
reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this
Agreement.
d. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that
jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this
Agreement in any other jurisdiction.

including any Assignee of Securities. The Company shall not assign this
Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of the Buyers. A Buyer may assign some or all of its rights hereunder

shall not release such Buyer from its obligations hereunder unless such
obligations are assumed by such assignee and the Company has consented to such
assignment and assumption.
h. No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and
assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced

the agreements and covenants set forth in Sections 4, 5 and 11, the
indemnification provisions set forth in Section 8, the anti-dilution adjustments

deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as

accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby.
k. Termination. In the event that the Closing shall not have occurred
with respect to a Buyer on or before three (3) business days from the date
hereof due to the Company's or such Buyer's failure to satisfy the conditions
set forth in Sections 6 and 7 above (and the non-
20
breaching party's failure to waive such unsatisfied condition(s)), the
nonbreaching party shall have the option to terminate this Agreement with
respect to such breaching party at the close of business on such date without
liability of any party to any other party.
l. Placement Agent or Finder. The Company shall be responsible for the
payment of any fees or broker's commissions relating to or arising out of the

(including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and out of pocket expenses)
arising in connection with any such engagement or undertaking by the Company.
n. No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be
deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent,
and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.
o. Remedies. Each Buyer and each holder of the Securities shall have
all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights
and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other
agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have under any
law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be
entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other
security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this
Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law.
p. Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or
payments to the Buyers hereunder or pursuant to the Transaction Documents or the
Buyers enforce or exercise their rights hereunder or thereunder, and such
payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part
thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential,
set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid
or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other person
under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or
federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any
such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be
satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such
payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
