4. Representations and Warranties of Purchasers. Each Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company, effective as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date as follows:

4.1 Requisite Power and Authority. The Purchaser, if an entity and not a natural person, is duly organized or incorporated and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization or incorporation and has full partnership, corporate or other power and authority under its governing instruments and such laws to conduct its business as now conducted and to execute and deliver this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party. All action on the part of the Purchaser necessary for the authorization, execution, delivery and performance of all obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party has been taken prior to or concurrently with the Closing. Upon execution and delivery, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Purchaser is a party shall be valid and binding obligations of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with their respective terms, except as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights, and by general principles of equity that restrict the availability of equitable remedies.

4.2 Investment Representations. The Purchaser understands that the issuance of the Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The Purchaser also understands that such securities are being offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from registration contained in the Securities Act of 1933 based in part upon the Purchaser’s representations contained in this Agreement. The Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

(a) The Purchaser has substantial experience in evaluating and investing in private placement transactions of securities in companies similar to the Company so that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the capacity to protect such Purchaser’s own interests. The Purchaser must bear the economic risk of this investment indefinitely unless the resale of the Notes, Warrants or the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants is registered pursuant to the Securities Xxx 0000, or an exemption from registration is available. The Purchaser understands that the Company has no intention of registering the resale of the Securities. The Purchaser also understands that there is no assurance that any exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 will be available and that, even if it is available, such exemption may not allow the Purchaser to transfer all or any portion of the Securities under the circumstances, in the amounts or at the times the Purchaser might propose.

(b) The Purchaser is acquiring the Securities for the Purchaser’s own account for investment only, and not with a view towards their distribution.

(c) The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has not prepared and distributed any disclosure documents in connection with the offer and sale of the Securities except for this Agreement (including its exhibits and schedules). The Purchaser acknowledges that it has had an opportunity to review the Company’s public filings with the Commission, and to ask questions of and receive answers from the Company, or a person or persons acting on its behalf, concerning the terms and conditions and all other aspects of investment in the Company and the Securities. The Purchaser represents that by reason of its, or of its management’s, business or financial experience, the Purchaser has the capacity to protect its own interests in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.

(d) The Purchaser represents that it is an accredited investor within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as more specifically set forth on the Accredited Investor Certification attached hereto as Exhibit E.

(e) The Purchaser hereby acknowledges receipt, review and understanding of the Cautionary Statement and Liquidity and Capital Resources disclosure attached hereto as Exhibit D.

(f) To comply with applicable U.S. laws, including but not limited to the International Anti-Money Laundering and Financial Anti-Terrorism Abatement Act of 2001 (Title III of the USA PATRIOT Act), Purchaser represents and warrants that all payments by such Purchaser to the Company and all securities or payments made or distributions paid to the Purchaser from the Company will be made only in the Purchaser’s name and to and from a bank account of a bank based or incorporated in or formed under the laws of the United States.

(g) Xxxxxxxx Capital, Inc. will be paid a customary commission relating to the consummation of the investment transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Other than the payment by the Company to Xxxxxxxx Capital, Inc., no agent, broker, investment banker, person or firm acting on behalf of or under the authority of such Purchaser is or will be entitled to any broker’s or finder’s fee or any other commission directly or indirectly in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Such Purchaser agrees to indemnify the Company for any claims, losses or expenses incurred by the Company in connection with any claim for any such fees or commissions.

4.3 Investment Representations. The Purchaser understands and agrees that the Notes are expressly subordinated to the Company’s senior debt to Silicon Valley Bank, as described in Schedule 6.2(b). If requested, at the Closing the Purchaser will enter into a subordination agreement with Silicon Valley Bank in customary and negotiated form reasonably acceptable to Silicon Valley Bank.

5. Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties made herein are made as of the date of this Agreement and as of the date of Closing. They shall survive the Closing.

6. Post-Closing Covenants.

(b) The Company shall at all times preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and licenses, authorizations, permits, rights, and franchises material to the business of the Company, and shall qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in all jurisdictions in which the nature of its activities and properties (both owned and leased) makes such qualification necessary.

(c) The Company shall pay and discharge all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon the Company or upon its respective income or profits, or upon any respective properties belonging to it, prior to the date on which penalties attach thereto, and all lawful claims that, if unpaid, might become a lien or charge upon any such properties, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any such tax, assessment, charge, levy, or claim which is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings if the Company shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto.

(d) The Company shall comply in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders of any governmental authority.

(e) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, a number of shares sufficient to allow the conversion in full of all of the Notes. The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to assure that all the Securities may be issued without violation of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which such Securities may be listed (except for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately transmitted by the Company upon issuance).

(f) The Company shall as promptly as practicable under the circumstances, but in any event within three days, give notice to each Purchaser after becoming aware of the existence of any condition or event which constitutes, or the occurrence of, any of the following: (i) any Event of Default (as defined in the Notes); (ii) any other event of non-compliance by the Company under this Agreement; or (iii) the institution of an action, suit, or proceeding against the Company before any court, administrative agency, or arbitrator including, without limitation, any action of a foreign government or instrumentality, which, if adversely decided, could materially adversely affect the business, properties, financial condition, or results of operations of the Company, taken as a whole, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business.

6.2 Negative Covenants of the Company. From the date hereof until the date on which all Notes, or any successor, substitute or replacement Notes, shall be paid in full or converted, the Company shall not take, or permit or cause to be taken, any of the following actions without the prior written consent of Purchasers holding a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes (the “Majority Purchasers”): (a) redeem or repurchase any outstanding Capital Stock or declare or pay or set aside for payment any dividend or distribution to any stockholder or on account of any Capital Stock of the Company; or (b) create, incur, or suffer to exist any indebtedness other than the following (collectively, “Permitted Indebtedness”): (i) indebtedness existing on the date hereof and set forth in Schedule 6.2(b), (ii) any indebtedness approved by Majority Purchasers at any time, or (iii) indebtedness which is expressly subordinated to the Notes.

6.3 Piggyback Registration Rights. Each Purchaser shall have the following rights, with respect to the filing by the Company of registration statements (each a “Registration Statement”) with the SEC, for the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (collectively, the “Conversion Shares” and referred to together with any equity issued with respect to the Conversion Shares upon any dividend or stock split in connection with a combination or conversion of equity securities, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or other reorganization, as the “Registrable Shares”); provided, however, that as to any particular securities constituting Registrable Shares, such securities will cease to be Registrable Shares when they have been: (i) effectively registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and disposed of in accordance with the Registration Statement covering them, or sold to the public through a broker, dealer or market maker pursuant to Rule 144 (or by similar provision then in force) under the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) when registration under the Securities Act of 1933 would no longer be required for the immediate sale of such securities held by such Purchaser pursuant to the provisions of Rule 144 (or any successor provision); or (iii) two years have passed from the date hereof.

(a) If, at any time when there is not an effective Registration Statement providing for the resale of all of the Registrable Shares, then, whenever the Company proposes to prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement relating to an offering under the Securities Act of 1933 of any of its equity securities (other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8, each as promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, or their then equivalents), and the registration form to be used may be used for the registration of Registrable Shares, the Company shall send to each holder of Registrable Shares written notice of such determination. If, within 30 days after receipt of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as may be specified by the Company in such written notice as may be necessary for the Company to comply with its obligations with respect to the timing of the filing of such Registration Statement), any such holder of Registrable Shares shall so request in writing (which request shall specify the Registrable Shares intended to be registered), the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the registration under the Securities Act of 1933 of all Registrable Shares which the Company has been so requested to register by the Purchaser; provided, however, that the Purchaser must cooperate in providing the Company with all information reasonably required to be included in the Registration Statement of otherwise obtained by the Company for purposes of preparing and filing the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto.

(b) If, for any reason, the SEC requires that the number of Registrable Shares to be registered for resale pursuant to the Registration Statement in connection with any Registration Statement, be reduced, or if a greater number of Registrable Shares is offered for participation in the proposed offering than in the reasonable opinion of the managing underwriter(s) of the proposed offering can be accommodated without adversely affecting the proposed offering, such reduction (the “Cut Back”) shall be allocated pro rata among the holders whose shares have been included in such Registration Statement until the reduction required by the SEC or its rules shall have been effected. At the discretion of the Company, the Cut Back may be effected first among one particular type of Registrable Securities (e.g., Conversion Shares issuable upon exercise of Warrants).

(c) All expenses incurred by the Company in complying with this Section, including without limitation all registration and filing fees, printing expenses (if required), fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or “blue sky” laws, fees of the FINRA, transfer taxes, and fees of transfer agents and registrars, are called “Registration Expenses.” The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any registration statement described in this Section.

Forward-Looking Statements

The following discussion contains various forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Exchange Act.

When used in the following discussion, the words “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates” and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated, certain of which are beyond our control, are set forth in Item 1A under the caption “Risk Factors.”

Our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, forward-looking statements. Accordingly, we cannot be certain that any of the events anticipated by forward-looking statements will occur or, if any of them do occur, what impact they will have on us. We caution you to keep in mind the cautions and risks described in this document and to refrain from attributing undue certainty to any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of the document in which they appear. We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statement.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Going Concern

We incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011. At December 31, 2013, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $1.5 million and working capital of $1.3 million. The cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $2.8 million. At December 31, 2013, we had no outstanding balance and no borrowing capability on our line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank. Silicon Valley Bank has issued a letter of credit in the amount of $180,000 as collateral to the landlord of our corporate office and another letter of credit to a vendor in the amount of $50,000. As of December 31, 2013, we were unable to meet the minimum tangible net worth requirements per the terms of the loan and security agreement with Silicon Valley bank, and therefore we are currently unable to drawn down on the line of credit. As of December 31, 2013, our tangible net worth totaled $1.6 million or $0.6 million below the minimum required amount per the terms of the loan and security agreement with Silicon Valley Bank. The line of credit is secured by all of our assets and matures on July 15, 2014. Starting with the month ending March 31, 2014 and on the last day of each following month, our new tangible net worth requirement has been reduced to $150,000 and, commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2014, the minimum tangible net worth requirement increases, commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2014 and each quarter thereafter, by the sum of (a) fifty-percent (50%) of our quarterly net income (without reduction for any losses) for such quarter, plus (b) fifty-percent (50%) of all proceeds received from the issuance of equity during such quarter and/or the principal amount of all subordinated debt incurred during such quarter. We must comply with this tangible net worth minimum in order to draw down on such line of credit and also while there are outstanding credit extensions (other than our existing lease letter of credit).

D-1

The financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 were prepared on a going concern basis, meaning that they do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should our company be unable to continue as a going concern. However, our auditor also expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our ability to continue as a going concern is an issue raised as a result of losses suffered from operations. Although we believe we extended our ability to fund our operations as a result of the restructuring we initiated on July 29, 2013 (see “Restructuring” below), even after the savings we expect to achieve and the additional funds received from the unsecured promissory notes issued in December 2013, we do not currently have sufficient capital resources to fund operations beyond June 2014. We continue to experience operating losses. Management continues to seek financing on favorable terms; however, there can be no assurance that any such financing can be obtained on favorable terms, if at all. At present, we have no commitments for any additional financing. Because we have received an opinion from our auditor that substantial doubt exists as to whether our company can continue as a going concern, it may be more difficult for our company to attract investors, secure debt financing or bank loans, or a combination of the foregoing, on favorable terms, if at all. Our future depends upon our ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations. If we are unable to generate sufficient revenue, find financing, or adjust our operating expenses so as to maintain positive working capital, then we will be forced to cease operations and investors will lose their entire investment. We can give no assurance as to our ability to generate adequate revenue, raise sufficient capital, sufficiently reduce operating expenses or continue as a going concern.

Restructuring

In July 2013, we implemented a restructuring plan designed to conserve our cash resources and to further align our ongoing expenses with our business by focusing sales efforts on high-potential customers and prospects, preserving the research and development staff required to maintain and enhance our RoninCast® software, and consolidating certain positions. We incurred a one-time charge in 2013 aggregating approximately $0.2 million, consisting primarily of severance payments. We believe this restructuring will reduce our annual operating costs by approximately $1.3 million.

Operating Activities

We do not currently generate positive cash flow. Our investments in infrastructure have been greater than sales generated to date. As of December 31, 2013, we had an accumulated deficit of $98.0 million. The cash flow used in operating activities was $2.8 million, $4.8 million and $4.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. In 2013, net cash used by operating activities was attributable to our net loss, partially offset by an overall decrease in changes to our operating assets and liability accounts of $0.1 million and $0.7 million of depreciation and amortization and stock compensation expense. Included in the changes to our operating accounts were decreases in accounts receivable, inventory and other assets all of which were due to lower sales during the fourth quarter of 2013 when compared to the same period in the prior year. In addition, accounts payable and accrued liabilities balances were lower by $0.3 million and $0.1 million at the end of December 31, 2013 when compared to the prior year end balances. This was primarily the result of lower operating costs incurred during the fourth quarter of 2013 when compared to the same period in the prior year. Changes in our deferred revenue balances when comparing December 31, 2013 to December 31, 2012 increased $0.2 million as a result of additional uncompleted projects and higher levels of deferred maintenance contracts as our installation base continues to grow.

In 2012, net cash used by operating activities was attributable to our net loss, along with an overall increase in changes to our operating assets and liability accounts of $0.3 million, partially offset by depreciation and amortization and stock compensation expense. Included in the changes to our operating accounts were decreases in inventory, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, deferred revenue and accrued liabilities, all of which were primarily due to lower operating costs incurred during the fourth quarter of 2012 when compared to the same period in the prior year. The accounts receivable balance at the end of 2012 increased from the prior year balance as a result of an increase in sales during the fourth quarter of 2012 when compared to the same period in the prior year.

Disruptions in the economy and constraints in the credit markets have caused companies to reduce or delay capital investment. Some of our prospective customers may cancel or delay spending on the development or roll-out of capital and technology projects with us due to continuing economic uncertainty. Difficult economic conditions have adversely affected certain industries in particular, including the automotive and restaurant industries, in which we have major customers. We could also experience lower than anticipated order levels from current customers, cancellations of existing but unfulfilled orders, and extended payment or delivery terms. Economic conditions could also materially impact us through insolvency of our suppliers or current customers. As of December 31, 2013, Chrysler and EWI accounted for 44.8% and 15.0%, respectively, of our total receivables. In the case of insolvency by one of our significant customers, an account receivable with respect to that customer might not be collectible, might not be fully collectible, or might be collectible over longer than normal terms, each of which could adversely affect our financial position. There can be no assurance that we will not suffer credit losses in the future.

In addition, our financial condition and potential for continued net losses could cause current and prospective customers to defer placing orders with us, to require terms that are unfavorable to us, or to place their orders with marketing technology suppliers other than ourselves, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. On the same basis, third-party suppliers may refuse to do business with us, or may do so only on terms that are unfavorable to us, which also could cause our revenue to decline.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $29,000, $47,000 and $149,000 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Net cash used in investing activities for the periods presented was attributable to the purchases of property and equipment. We believe capital investments for 2014 will be similar to 2013 as our current infrastructure has the capacity to service additional deployments.

Financing Activities

We have financed our operations primarily through sales of common stock and the issuance of notes payable to vendors, shareholders and investors. For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, we generated a net $2.1 million, $1.6 million and $3.2 million from financing activities, respectively.

In March 2013, we sold a total of 868 units at a price of $1.80 per unit, each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one –five year warrant to purchase 0.50 of a share of common stock, with exercisability commencing six months and one day after issuance, at an exercise price of $2.73 per share, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission in January 2013. We obtained approximately $1.4 million in net proceeds as a result of this registered direct offering.

In December 2013, we sold an aggregate of $1.1 million in unsecured convertible promissory notes, along with warrants to purchase 1.1 million shares of our common stock, in a private placement transaction with certain accredited investors. The notes mature two years after issuance, require the payment of interest at the rate of 4% per year (payable on maturity), and are convertible, at the holder’s option, into unregistered shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $0.50 per share. The warrants are immediately exercisable, expire three years after issuance, have a cashless exercise feature, and may be exercised to purchase unregistered shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.75 per share.

During 2013, we received proceeds of $21,000 from the issuance of 19,000 shares under our associate (employee) stock purchase plan, which was terminated effective July 2013. Also during 2013, we made a repayment of the line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank of $0.4 million.

In September 2012, we sold approximately 348,000 shares of our common stock at $4.05 per share pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 which was declared effective by the SEC in September 2009. We obtained approximately $1.2 million in net proceeds as a result of this registered direct offering. During 2012, we also received $51,000 from the sale of approximately 12,000 shares of common stock to our associates (employees) through our 2007 Associate Stock Purchase Plan. We also received a $0.4 million advance on our line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank in 2012.

In December 2011, we sold approximately 664,000 shares of our common stock at $5.00 per share pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 which was declared effective by the SEC in September 2009. We obtained approximately $2.9 million in net proceeds as a result of this registered direct offering. During 2011, we received $68,000 from the sale of approximately 14,000 shares of common stock to our associates (employees) through our 2007 Associate Stock Purchase Plan and we received approximately $0.2 million from the exercise of outstanding stock options. We used $36,000 for the payment of capital leases during 2011.

D-4

We will likely be required to raise additional funding through public or private financings, including equity financings. Any additional equity financings may be dilutive to shareholders and may be completed at a discount to market price. Debt financing, if available, would likely involve restrictive covenants similar to or more restrictive than those contained in the security and loan agreement we currently have with Silicon Valley Bank. Those covenants include maintaining minimum tangible net worth, which we may not satisfy. There can be no assurance we will successfully complete any future equity or debt financing. Adequate funds for our operations, whether from financial markets, collaborative or other arrangements, may not be available when needed or on terms attractive to us, especially from markets which continue to be risk averse. If adequate funds are not available, our plans to operate our business may be adversely affected and we could be required to curtail our activities significantly and/or cease operating.

Due to losses suffered from operations, for the year ended December 31, 2013, our independent registered public accounting firm expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We do not currently have sufficient capital resources to fund our operations beyond April 2014. We continue to experience operating losses. Management continues to seek financing on favorable terms; however, there can be no assurance that any such financing can be obtained on favorable terms, if at all. At present, we have no commitments for any additional financing. If we are unable to generate sufficient revenue, find financing, or adjust our operating expenses so as to maintain positive working capital, then we likely will be forced to cease operations and investors will likely lose their entire investment.

Line of Credit

In March 2010, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “Loan and Security Agreement”), which was most recently amended effective March 6, 2014. The Loan and Security Agreement provides us with a revolving line-of-credit at an annual interest rate of prime plus 1.5%, the availability of which is the lesser of (a) $1.5 million, or (b) the amount available under our borrowing base (75% of our eligible accounts receivable plus 50% of our eligible inventory) minus (1) the dollar equivalent amount of all outstanding letters of credit, (2) 10% of each outstanding foreign exchange contract, (3) any amounts used for cash management services, and (4) the outstanding principal balance of any advances. In connection with the July 2010 lease amendment for our corporate offices, Silicon Valley Bank issued a letter of credit which as of December 31, 2013 was in the amount of $180,000 along with a letter of credit issued to a vendor for $50,000.

As of December 31, 2013, we were not in compliance with the tangible net worth requirement and therefore not eligible to draw down on the line of credit. As of December 31, 2013, our tangible net worth totaled $1.6 million or $0.6 million below the minimum required amount per the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement. We had no outstanding balance under this loan agreement (other than our letter of credits) as of December 31, 2013.

Under the Loan and Security Agreement, we are generally required to obtain the prior written consent of Silicon Valley Bank to, among other things, (a) dispose of assets, (b) change its business, (c) liquidate or dissolve, (d) change CEO or COO (replacements must be satisfactory to the lender), (e) enter into any transaction in which our shareholders who were not shareholders immediately prior to such transaction own more than 40% of our voting stock (subject to limited exceptions) after the transaction, (f) merge or consolidate with any other person, (g) acquire all or substantially all of the capital stock or property of another person, or (h) become liable for any indebtedness (other than permitted indebtedness). The line of credit is secured by all our assets and matures on July 15, 2014. Starting with the month ending March 31, 2014, our new tangible net worth requirement has been reduced to $150,000 as of the end of each month and, commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2014, the minimum tangible net worth requirement increases, commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2014 and each quarter thereafter, by the sum of (a) fifty-percent (50%) of our quarterly net income (without reduction for any losses) for such quarter, plus (b) fifty-percent (50%) of all proceeds received from the issuance of equity during such quarter and/or the principal amount of all subordinated debt incurred during such quarter. We must comply with this tangible net worth minimum in order to draw down on such line of credit and also while there are outstanding credit extensions (other than our existing lease letter of credit).
