Upon the following terms and conditions, the Company shall issue and sell to the Purchasers and each of the Purchasers shall purchase from the Company the number of shares (the “Preferred Shares”) of the Company’s Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a purchase price of $1,000 per Preferred Share, convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name on Exhibit A hereto. The designation, rights, preferences and other terms and provisions of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock are set forth in the Certificate of Designation of the Relative Rights and Preferences of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Certificate of Designation”). The Company and the Purchasers are executing and delivering this Agreement in accordance with and in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Rule 506 of Regulation D (“Regulation D”), as promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

Section 1.2 Warrants. Upon the following terms and conditions and for no additional consideration, each of the Purchasers shall be issued (i) a Series C-1 Warrant, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-1 (the “Series C-1 Warrants”), to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock equal to seventy five percent (75%) of the number of Conversion Shares (as defined in Section 1.3 hereof) initially issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares acquired by such Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (such Purchaser’s “Underlying Common Shares”), as set forth opposite such Purchaser’s name on Exhibit A hereto, (ii) a Series C-2 Warrant, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-2 (the “Series C-2 Warrant”) to purchase up to 72.7% of such Purchaser’s Underlying Common Shares, and (iii) a Series C-3 Warrant, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-3 (the “Series C-3 Warrant” and, together with the Series C-1 Warrants and the Series C-2 Warrant, the “Warrants”), to purchase up to a number of shares of Common Stock equal to seventy-five percent (75%) of the number of shares actually purchased by such Purchaser pursuant to exercises of its Series C-2 Warrant. The Warrants shall expire five (5) years following the Initial Closing Date, except for the Series C-2 Warrants issued to each Purchaser purchasing fewer than 4,000 Preferred Shares, which shall expire twelve (12) months following the Initial Closing Date (provided that the Series C-2 Warrants issued to each Purchaser purchasing 4,000 or more

Preferred Shares shall expire twenty-four (24) months following the Initial Closing Date). Each of the Warrants shall have an exercise price per share equal to its respective Warrant Price (as defined in the applicable Warrant).

Section 1.3 Conversion Shares. The Company has authorized and has reserved and covenants to continue to reserve, free of preemptive rights and other similar contractual rights of stockholders, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all of the Preferred Shares and exercise of all of the Warrants then outstanding. Any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares and exercise of the Warrants (and such shares when issued) are herein referred to as the “Conversion Shares” and the “Warrant Shares”, respectively. The Preferred Shares, the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares are sometimes collectively referred to as the “Shares”.

Section 1.4 Purchase Price and Closings. In consideration of and in express reliance upon the representations, warranties, covenants, terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company agrees to issue and sell to the Purchasers and, in consideration of and in express reliance upon the representations, warranties, covenants, terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Purchasers, severally but not jointly, agree to purchase the numbers of Preferred Shares and Warrants set forth opposite their respective names on Exhibit A. The minimum purchase price paid at the Initial Closing (as defined below) will be $3,000,000 (excluding any Purchase Price paid by cancellation of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock) and the maximum aggregate purchase price paid at all closings (including by cancellation of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock) will be $19,800,000 (the aggregate of all such purchase prices paid at any Closing, the “Purchase Price”). The Shares shall be sold and funded in separate closings (each, a “Closing”), in each case pursuant to terms of this Agreement and provided that each Purchaser executes a signature page hereto and to each of the other Transaction Documents (as defined in Section 2.1(b) hereof) to which the Purchasers are a party, and thereby agrees to be bound by and subject to the terms and conditions hereof and thereof. The initial Closing under this Agreement (the “Initial Closing”) shall take place on or about September 24, 2007, or as soon thereafter as the Company has identified Purchasers to purchase at least 3,000 Preferred Shares and all other conditions to closing have been satisfied or waived (the “Initial Closing Date”). Each subsequent Closing under this Agreement (each, a “Subsequent Closing”) shall take place upon the mutual agreement of the Company and the Purchasers participating in such Subsequent Closing, but in no event later than October 26, 2007 (each, a “Subsequent Closing Date”). The Initial Closing Date and each Subsequent Closing Date are sometimes referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date”. Each Closing under this Agreement shall take place at the offices of Sadis & Xxxxxxxx LLP, 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, 00^xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 at 10:00 a.m., New York time, or at such other time and place as may be mutually agreed upon.

At each Closing, each Purchaser participating in such Closing shall deliver its portion of the Purchase Price by wire transfer to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of paying in cash, the holders of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and associated warrants (the “Series A

Holders”) shall pay their respective portion of the Purchase Price hereunder through the cancellation of such holders’ Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (and associated warrants) in the respective individual amounts set forth on Exhibit A hereto; provided, however, that such payments shall not be considered for purposes of determining whether the minimum purchase price obligation has been satisfied. The portion of the Purchase Price to be paid by the Series A Holders by virtue of the cancellation of such Purchasers’ Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (and associated warrants) shall be the original cash purchase price paid by such Purchasers under the Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of November 27, 2006 plus any unpaid dividends accrued thereunder.

ARTICLE II

Representations and Warranties

Section 2.1 Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company hereby represents and warrants to each Purchaser, as of the date hereof (except as set forth on the Schedule of Exceptions attached hereto with each numbered Schedule corresponding to the section number herein), as follows:

(a) Organization, Good Standing and Power. The Company is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the requisite corporate power to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to conduct its business as it is now being conducted. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(a), the Company and each of its subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except for any jurisdiction(s) (alone or in the aggregate) in which the failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in Section 2.1(c) hereof) on the Company’s financial condition.

(b) Authorization; Enforcement. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), the Lock-Up Agreement (as defined in Section 3.20 hereof) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E, the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions (as defined in Section 3.13), the Certificate of Designation, and the Warrants (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”) and to issue and sell the Shares and the Warrants in accordance with the terms hereof. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company, and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and no further consent or authorization of the Company or its Board of Directors or stockholders is required. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company. The other Transaction Documents will have been duly executed and delivered by the Company at the Closing. Each of the Transaction Documents constitutes, or shall constitute when executed and delivered, a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may

be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship, receivership or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditor’s rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application.

(c) Capitalization. The authorized capital stock of the Company and the shares thereof currently issued and outstanding as of September 24, 2007, are set forth on Schedule 2.1(c) hereto. All of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock and the Preferred Shares have been duly and validly authorized. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(c) hereto, no shares of Common Stock are entitled to preemptive rights or registration rights and there are no outstanding options, warrants, scrip, rights to subscribe to, call relating to, or securities or rights convertible into, any shares of capital stock of the Company. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(c) hereto, there are no contracts, commitments, understandings, or arrangements by which the Company is or may become bound to issue additional shares of the capital stock of the Company or options, securities or rights convertible into shares of capital stock of the Company. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(c) hereto, the Company is not a party to any agreement granting registration or anti-dilution rights to any person with respect to any of its equity or debt securities. The Company is not a party to, and it has no knowledge of, any agreement restricting the voting or transfer of any shares of the capital stock of the Company. The offer and sale of all capital stock, convertible securities, rights, warrants, or options of the Company issued prior to the Closing complied with all applicable Federal and state securities laws, and no stockholder has a right of rescission or claim for damages with respect thereto which would have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined below). The Company has furnished or made available to the Purchasers true and correct copies of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation as in effect on the date hereof (the “Certificate”), and the Company’s Bylaws as in effect on the date hereof (the “Bylaws”). For the purposes of this Agreement, “Material Adverse Effect” means any material adverse effect on the business, operations, properties, prospects, or financial condition of the Company and its subsidiaries and/or any condition, circumstance, or situation that would prohibit or otherwise interfere with the ability of the Company to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect.

(d) Issuance of Shares. The Preferred Shares and the Warrants to be issued at the Closing have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and the Preferred Shares, when paid for and issued in accordance with the terms hereof, shall be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable and entitled to the rights and preferences set forth in the Certificate of Designation. When the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares are paid for and issued in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Designation and the Warrants, respectively, such shares will be duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable, and the holders shall be entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of Common Stock.

(e) No Conflicts. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(e) hereto, the execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company, the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated herein and therein do not and will not (i) violate any provision of the Company’s Certificate or Bylaws, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights

not involve any transaction which is subject to the prohibitions of Section 406 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), or in connection with which a tax could be imposed pursuant to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), provided that, if any of the Purchasers, or any person or entity that owns a beneficial interest in any of the Purchasers, is an “employee pension benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA) with respect to which the Company is a “party in interest” (within the meaning of Section 3(14) of ERISA), the requirements of Sections 407(d)(5) and 408(e) of ERISA, if applicable, are met. As used in this Section 2.1(bb), the term “Plan” shall mean an “employee pension benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3 of ERISA) which is or has been established or maintained, or to which contributions are or have been made, by the Company or any subsidiary or by any trade or business, whether or not incorporated, which, together with the Company or any subsidiary, is under common control, as described in Section 414(b) or (c) of the Code.

(cc) Dilutive Effect. The Company understands and acknowledges that its obligation to issue Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Preferred Shares in accordance with this Agreement and the Certificate of Designation and its obligations to issue the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the Warrants in accordance with this Agreement and the Warrants, is, in each case, absolute and unconditional regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership interest of other stockholders of the Company.

(dd) 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 cause the offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act which would prevent the Company from selling the Shares 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 Shares to be so integrated with other offerings. The Company does not have any registration statement pending before the Commission or currently under the Commission’s review and since May 1, 2006, the Company has not publicly offered or sold any of its equity securities or debt securities convertible into shares of Common Stock.

(ee) Independent Nature of Purchasers. The Company acknowledges that the obligations of each Purchaser under the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under the Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges that the decision of each Purchaser to purchase securities pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Purchaser independently of any other purchase and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or of its Subsidiaries which may have made or given by any other Purchaser or by any agent or employee of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser or any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any Purchaser (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. The Company

acknowledges that nothing contained herein, or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges that each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that for reasons of administrative convenience only, the Transaction Documents have been prepared by counsel for one of the Purchasers and such counsel does not represent all of the Purchasers but only such Purchaser and the other Purchasers have retained their own individual counsel with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company acknowledges that it has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by the Purchasers.

(ff) Transfer Agent. The name, address, telephone number, fax number, contact person and email address of the Company’s current transfer agent is set forth on Schedule 2.1(ff) hereto.

Section 2.2 Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser hereby makes the following representations, warranties and covenants to the Company with respect solely to itself and not with respect to any other Purchaser:

(a) Organization and Standing of the Purchasers. If the Purchaser is an entity, such Purchaser is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company duly incorporated or organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization.

(b) Authorization and Power. Each Purchaser has the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement and to purchase the Preferred Shares and Warrants being sold to it hereunder. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement by such Purchaser and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or partnership action, and no further consent or authorization of such Purchaser or its Board of Directors, stockholders, members, managers or partners, as the case may be, is required. Each of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Purchaser and constitutes, or shall constitute when executed and delivered, a valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with the terms thereof, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship, receivership or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditor’s rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application.

(c) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement by such Purchaser and the consummation by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or relating hereto do not and will not (i) result in a violation of such Purchaser’s charter documents or bylaws or other organizational documents or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of any agreement, indenture or instrument or obligation to which such Purchaser is a party or by which its properties or assets are bound, or result in a violation of any law, rule, or regulation, or any order, judgment or decree of any court or governmental agency applicable to such Purchaser or its properties (except for such conflicts, defaults and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on such Purchaser’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder). Such Purchaser is not required to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement or to purchase the Preferred Shares or acquire the Warrants in accordance with the terms hereof, provided that for purposes of the representation made in this sentence, such Purchaser is assuming and relying upon the accuracy of the relevant representations and agreements of the Company herein.

(d) Acquisition for Investment. Each Purchaser is acquiring the Preferred Shares and the Warrants solely for its own account for the purpose of investment and not as a nominee or with a view to or for sale in connection with distribution. Each Purchaser does not have a present intention to sell the Preferred Shares or the Warrants, nor a present arrangement (whether or not legally binding) or intention to effect any distribution of the Preferred Shares or the Warrants to or through any person or entity; provided, however, that by making the representations herein and subject to Section 2.2(h) below, such Purchaser does not agree to hold the Shares or the Warrants for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Shares or the Warrants at any time in accordance with Federal and state securities laws applicable to such disposition. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it is able to bear the financial risks associated with an investment in the Preferred Shares and the Warrants and that it has been given full access to such records of the Company and the subsidiaries and to the officers of the Company and the subsidiaries and received such information as it has deemed necessary or appropriate to conduct its due diligence investigation and has sufficient knowledge and experience in investing in companies similar to the Company in terms of the Company’s stage of development so as to be able to evaluate the risks and merits of its investment in the Company.

(e) Status of Purchasers. Each Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Such Purchaser is not required to be registered as a broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act and such Purchaser is not a broker-dealer.

(f) Opportunities for Additional Information. Subject to Section 7.3 hereof, each Purchaser acknowledges that such Purchaser has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from, or obtain additional information from, the executive officers of the Company concerning the financial and other affairs of the Company, and to the extent deemed necessary in light of such Purchaser’s personal knowledge of the Company’s affairs, such Purchaser has asked such questions and received answers to the full satisfaction of such Purchaser, and such Purchaser desires to invest in the Company.

(g) No General Solicitation. Each Purchaser acknowledges that the Preferred Shares and the Warrants were not offered to such Purchaser by means of any form of general or public solicitation or general advertising, or publicly disseminated advertisements or sales literature, including (i) any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media, or broadcast over television or radio, or (ii) any seminar or meeting to which such Purchaser was invited by any of the foregoing means of communications.

(h) Rule 144. Such Purchaser understands that the Shares must be held indefinitely unless such Shares are registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration is available. Such Purchaser acknowledges that such Purchaser is familiar with Rule 144 of the rules and regulations of the Commission, as amended, promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), and that such person has been advised that Rule 144 permits resales only under certain circumstances. Such Purchaser understands that to the extent that Rule 144 is not available, such Purchaser will be unable to sell any Shares without either registration under the Securities Act or the existence of another exemption from such registration requirement.

(i) General. Such Purchaser understands that the Shares are being offered and sold in reliance on a transactional exemption from the registration requirement of Federal and state securities laws and the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of such Purchaser to acquire the Shares.

(j) Independent Investment. Except as may be disclosed in any filings with the Commission by the Purchasers under Section 13 and/or Section 16 of the Exchange Act, no Purchaser has agreed to act with any other Purchaser for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of the Shares purchased hereunder for purposes of Section 13(d) under the Exchange Act, and each Purchaser is acting independently with respect to its investment in the Shares.

(k) Trading Activities. Each Purchaser agrees that it shall not, directly or indirectly, in its own capacity or through an agent, engage in any short sales (as defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act) with respect to the Common Stock, or any hedging transaction or securitization, including obtaining shares of Common Stock to borrow, which establishes any short position with respect to the Common Stock, whether on a U.S. domestic exchange or any foreign exchange. Other than consummating the transactions contemplated hereunder, such Purchaser has not directly or indirectly, nor has any person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Purchaser, executed any purchases or sales, including short sales, of the securities of the Company during the period commencing from the time that such Purchaser first received from the Company or any other person (i) a term sheet (written or oral) or (ii) a draft of any Transaction Document, in each case setting forth the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder, until the date hereof.

ARTICLE III

Covenants

The Company covenants with each of the Purchasers as follows, which covenants are for the benefit of the Purchasers and their permitted assignees hereunder.

Section 3.1 Securities Compliance. The Company shall notify the Commission in accordance with its rules and regulations of the transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents, including filing a Form D with respect to the Preferred Shares, Warrants, Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares as required under Regulation D and applicable “blue sky” laws, and shall take all other necessary action and proceedings as may be required and permitted by applicable law, rule and regulation, for the legal and valid issuance of the Preferred Shares, the Warrants, the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares to the Purchasers or subsequent holders.

Section 3.2 Registration and Listing. The Company shall (a) either (i) cause its Common Stock to continue to be registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, or (ii) continue to voluntarily file all reports required to be filed as if the Company were so registered, and in any event shall comply in all respects with its reporting and filing obligations under the Exchange Act, (b) comply with all requirements related to any registration statement filed pursuant to this Agreement, and (c) not take any action or file any document (whether or not permitted by the Securities Act or the rules promulgated thereunder) to terminate or suspend such registration or to terminate or suspend its reporting and filing obligations under the Exchange Act or Securities Act, except as permitted herein. The Company will take all action necessary to continue the listing or trading of its Common Stock on the OTC Bulletin Board or other exchange or market on which the Common Stock is trading or may be traded in the future. Subject to the terms of the Transaction Documents, the Company further covenants that it will take such further action as the Purchasers may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time, to enable the Purchasers to sell the Shares without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144. Upon the request of the Purchasers, the Company shall deliver to the Purchasers a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

Section 3.3 Inspection Rights. The Company shall permit, during normal business hours and upon reasonable request and reasonable notice, each Purchaser or any employees, agents or representatives thereof, so long as such Purchaser shall be obligated hereunder to purchase the Preferred Shares or shall beneficially own any Preferred Shares, or shall own Conversion Shares which, in the aggregate, represent more than 2% of the total combined voting power of all voting securities then outstanding, for purposes reasonably related to such Purchaser’s interests as a stockholder, to examine and make reasonable copies of and extracts from the records and books of account of, and visit and inspect the properties, assets, operations and business of the Company and any subsidiary, and to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Company and any subsidiary with any of its officers, consultants, directors, and key employees.

Section 3.4 Compliance with Laws. The Company shall comply, and cause each subsidiary to comply, with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders, noncompliance with which could have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.5 Keeping of Records and Books of Account. The Company shall keep and cause each subsidiary to keep adequate records and books of account, in which complete entries will be made in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, reflecting all financial transactions of the Company and its subsidiaries, and in which, for each fiscal year, all proper reserves for depreciation, depletion, obsolescence, amortization, taxes, bad debts and other purposes in connection with its business shall be made.

Section 3.6 Reporting Requirements. If the Commission ceases making periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act available via the Internet, then at a Purchaser’s request the Company shall furnish the following to such Purchaser so long as such Purchaser shall be obligated hereunder to purchase the Preferred Shares or shall beneficially own any Shares:

(a) Quarterly Reports filed with the Commission on Form 10-QSB as soon as practical after the document is filed with the Commission, and in any event within five (5) days after the document is filed with the Commission;

(b) Annual Reports filed with the Commission on Form 10-KSB as soon as practical after the document is filed with the Commission, and in any event within five (5) days after the document is filed with the Commission; and

(c) Copies of all notices and information, including without limitation notices and proxy statements in connection with any meetings, that are provided to holders of shares of Common Stock, contemporaneously with the delivery of such notices or information to such holders of Common Stock.

Section 3.7 Amendments. The Company shall not amend or waive any provision of the Certificate or Bylaws of the Company in any way that would adversely affect the liquidation preferences, dividends rights, conversion rights, voting rights or redemption rights of the Preferred Shares; provided, however, that any creation and issuance of another series of Junior Stock (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) shall not be deemed to materially and adversely affect such rights, preferences or privileges.

Section 3.8 Other Agreements. The Company shall not enter into any agreement in which the terms of such agreement would restrict or impair the right or ability of the Company or any subsidiary to perform under any Transaction Document.

Section 3.9 Distributions. So long as any Preferred Shares remain outstanding, the Company agrees that it shall not (i) declare or pay any dividends or make any distributions to any holder(s) of Common Stock or (ii) purchase or otherwise acquire for value, directly or indirectly, any Common Stock or other equity security of the Company.

Section 3.10 Status of Dividends. The Company covenants and agrees that (i) no Federal income tax return or claim for refund of Federal income tax or other submission to the Internal Revenue Service (the “Service”) will adversely affect the Preferred Shares, any other series of its Preferred Stock, or the Common Stock, and no deduction shall operate to jeopardize the availability to Purchasers of the dividends received deduction provided by Section 243(a)(1) of the Code or any successor provision, (ii) in no report to shareholders or to any governmental body having jurisdiction over the Company or otherwise will it treat the Preferred Shares other than as equity capital or the dividends paid thereon other than as dividends paid on equity capital unless required to do so by a governmental body having jurisdiction over the accounts of the Company or by a change in generally accepted accounting principles required as a result of action by an authoritative accounting standards setting body, and (iii) it will take no action which would result in the dividends paid by the Company on the Preferred Shares out of the Company’s current or accumulated earnings and profits being ineligible for the dividends received deduction provided by Section 243(a)(1) of the Code. The preceding sentence shall not be deemed to prevent the Company from designating the Preferred Stock as “Convertible Preferred Stock” in its annual and quarterly financial statements in accordance with its prior practice concerning other series of preferred stock of the Company. In the event that the Purchasers have reasonable cause to believe that dividends paid by the Company on the Preferred Shares out of the Company’s current or accumulated earnings and profits will not be treated as eligible for the dividends received deduction provided by Section 243(a)(1) of the Code, or any successor provision, the Company will, at the reasonable request of the Purchasers of 51% of the outstanding Preferred Shares, join with the Purchasers in the submission to the Service of a request for a ruling that dividends paid on the Shares will be so eligible for Federal income tax purposes, at the Purchasers expense. In addition, the Company will reasonably cooperate with the Purchasers (at Purchasers’ expense) in any litigation, appeal or other proceeding challenging or contesting any ruling, technical advice, finding or determination that earnings and profits are not eligible for the dividends received deduction provided by Section 243(a)(1) of the Code, or any successor provision to the extent that the position to be taken in any such litigation, appeal, or other proceeding is not contrary to any provision of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein contained shall be deemed to preclude the Company from claiming a deduction with respect to such dividends if (i) the Code shall hereafter be amended, or final Treasury regulations thereunder are issued or modified, to provide that dividends on the Preferred Shares or Conversion Shares should not be treated as dividends for Federal income tax purposes or that a deduction with respect to all or a portion of the dividends on the Shares is allowable for Federal income tax purposes, or (ii) in the absence of such an amendment, issuance or modification and after a submission of a request for ruling or technical advice, the Service shall issue a published ruling or advise that dividends on the Shares should not be treated as dividends for Federal income tax purposes. If the Service specifically determines that the Preferred Shares or Conversion Shares constitute debt, the Company may file protective claims for refund.

Section 3.11 Use of Proceeds. The net proceeds from the sale of the Shares hereunder shall be used by the Company for working capital and general corporate purposes and not to redeem any Common Stock or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable into Common Stock or to settle any outstanding litigation.

Section 3.12 Reservation of Shares. So long as any of the Preferred Shares or Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary to at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance, no less than one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock needed to provide for the issuance of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares.

Section 3.13 Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent, and any subsequent transfer agent, to issue certificates, registered in the name of each Purchaser or its respective nominee(s), for the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares in such amounts as specified from time to time by each Purchaser to the Company upon conversion of the Preferred Shares or exercise of the Warrants in the form of Exhibit F attached hereto (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”). Prior to registration of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares under the Securities Act, all such certificates shall bear the restrictive legend specified in Section 5.1 of this Agreement. The Company warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 3.13 will be given by the Company to its transfer agent and that the Shares 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. If a Purchaser provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that a public sale, assignment or transfer of the Shares may be made without registration under the Securities Act or the Purchaser provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such Shares can be sold pursuant to 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, in the case of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares, promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates in such name and in such denominations as specified by such Purchaser and without any restrictive legend. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations under this Section 3.13 will cause irreparable harm to the Purchasers by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transactions contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 3.13 will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 3.13, that the Purchasers 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.

Section 3.14 Disposition of Assets. So long as any Preferred Shares remain outstanding, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties, assets and rights including, without limitation, its software and intellectual property, to any person except for licenses or sales to customers in the ordinary course of business or with the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares then outstanding.

Section 3.15 Reporting Status. So long as a Purchaser beneficially owns any of the Shares, the Company shall timely file all reports required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act, and the Company shall not cease filing reports under the Exchange Act even if the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would permit such termination.

Section 3.16 Disclosure of Transaction. The Company shall issue a press release describing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Press Release”) as soon as practicable after the Initial Closing but in no event later than 9:00 A.M. Eastern Time on the first Trading Day following the Initial Closing. The Company shall also file with the Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Form 8-K”) describing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby (and attaching as exhibits thereto this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Certificate of Designation, the Lock-Up Agreement, the form of each series of Warrant and the Press Release) as soon as practicable following the Closing Date but in no event more than four (4) Trading Days following the Closing Date, which Press Release and Form 8-K shall be subject to prior review and comment by counsel for the Purchasers. “Trading Day” means any day during which the OTC Bulletin Board (or other quotation venue or principal exchange on which the Common Stock is traded) shall be open for trading.

Section 3.17 Disclosure of Material Information. The Company covenants and agrees that neither it nor any other person acting on its behalf has provided or will provide any Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information (other than with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), unless prior thereto such Purchaser shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information. The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

Section 3.18 Pledge of Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Shares may be pledged by a Purchaser in connection with a bona fide margin agreement or other loan or financing arrangement that is secured by the Common Stock. The pledge of Common Stock shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Common Stock hereunder, and no Purchaser effecting a pledge of Common Stock shall be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; provided that a Purchaser and its pledgee shall be required to comply with the provisions of Article V hereof in order to effect a sale, transfer or assignment of Common Stock to such pledgee. At the Purchasers’ expense, the Company hereby agrees to execute and deliver such documentation as a pledgee of the Common Stock may reasonably request in connection with a pledge of the Common Stock to such pledgee by a Purchaser.

Section 3.19 Form SB-2 Eligibility. The Company currently meets the “registrant eligibility” and transaction requirements set forth in the general instructions to Form SB-2 applicable to “resale” registrations on Form SB-2.

Section 3.20 Lock-Up Agreement. The persons listed on Schedule 3.20 attached hereto shall be subject to the terms and provisions of a lock-up agreement in substantially the form as Exhibit E hereto (the “Lock-Up Agreement”), which shall provide the manner in which such persons will sell, transfer or dispose of their shares of Common Stock.

Section 3.21 DTC. Not later than the effective date of the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), the Company shall cause its Common Stock to be eligible for transfer with its transfer agent pursuant to the Depository Trust Company Fast Automated Securities Transfer Program.

Section 3.22 Issuance of Variable Securities. So long as any Preferred Stock remains outstanding, the Company agrees that it shall not issue any “Variable Rate Securities” for a period of two (2) years from the Initial Closing Date. “Variable Rate Securities” shall mean any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive additional shares of, Common Stock either (A) at a conversion, exercise or exchange rate or other price that is based upon, or varies with, the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity securities or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security based solely upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the operations of the Company or the market for the Common Stock.

Section 3.23 Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act. The Company shall use its best efforts to be in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, as required under such Act.

Section 3.24 No Commissions in connection with Conversion of Preferred Shares. In connection with the conversion of the Preferred Shares into Conversion Shares, neither the Company nor any Person acting on its behalf will take any action that would result in the Conversion Shares being exchanged by the Company other than with the then existing holders of the Preferred Shares exclusively where no commission or other remuneration is paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting the exchange in compliance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.

ARTICLE V

Stock Certificate Legend

Section 5.1 Legend. Each certificate representing the Preferred Shares and the Warrants, and, if appropriate, securities issued upon conversion thereof, shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form (in addition to any legend required by applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws):

THESE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE (THE “SECURITIES”) HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR THE COMPANY SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED.

The Company agrees to reissue certificates representing any of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares, without the legend set forth above if at such time, prior to making any transfer of any such securities, such holder thereof shall give written notice to the Company describing the manner and terms of such transfer and removal as the Company may reasonably request. Such proposed transfer and removal will not be effected until: (a) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that the registration of the Conversion Shares or the Warrant Shares under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such proposed transfer, (ii) a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Company with the Commission and has become effective under the Securities Act, (iii) the Company has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such registration and qualification under the Securities Act and state securities laws are not required, or (iv) the holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; and (b) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that registration or qualification under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state is not required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii) compliance with applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws has been effected or a valid exemption exists with respect thereto. The Company will respond to any such notice from a holder within five (5) business days. In the case of any proposed transfer under this Section 5.1, the Company will use reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws, but shall in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do business in any state where it is not then qualified, (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to the general service of process in any state where it is not then subject, or (z) to comply with state securities or “blue sky” laws of any state for which registration by coordination is unavailable to the Company. The restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 5.1 shall be in addition to, and not by way of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer contained in any other section of this Agreement. Whenever a certificate representing the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares is required to be issued to a Purchaser without a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (provided that a registration statement under the Securities Act providing for the resale of the Warrant Shares and Conversion Shares is then in effect), the Company shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares to a Purchaser by crediting the account of such Purchaser or such Purchaser’s Prime Broker with the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system (to the extent not inconsistent with any provisions of this Agreement).

ARTICLE VI

Indemnification

Section 6.1 Indemnification of Purchasers. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchasers (and their respective directors, officers, managers, partners, members, shareholders, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Purchasers as a result of any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by the Company herein.

Section 6.2 Indemnification of Company. Each Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company (and its directors, officers, managers, partners, members, shareholders, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Company as a result of any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by such Purchaser herein; provided, however, that no Purchaser shall have any liability pursuant to this Section 6.2 in an amount exceeding the aggregate purchase price paid to the Company by such Purchaser in connection with this Agreement and the securities issued hereunder.

Section 6.3 Indemnification Procedure. Any party entitled to indemnification under this Article VI (an “indemnified party”) will give prompt written notice to the party required to provide indemnification under this Article VI (the “indemnifying party”) of any matters giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided, that the failure of any party entitled to indemnification hereunder to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Article VI except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give prompt notice. In case any action, proceeding or claim is brought against an indemnified party in respect of which indemnification is sought hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, unless in the reasonable judgment of the indemnified party a conflict of interest between it and the indemnifying party may exist with respect of such action, proceeding or claim, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. In the event that the indemnifying party advises an indemnified party that it will contest such a claim for indemnification hereunder, or fails, within thirty (30) days of receipt of any indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such person of its election to defend, settle or compromise, at its sole cost and expense, any action, proceeding or claim (or discontinues its defense at any time after it commences such defense), then the indemnified party may, at its option, defend, settle or otherwise compromise or pay such action or claim. In any event, unless and until the indemnifying party elects in writing to assume and does so assume the defense of any such claim, proceeding or action, the indemnified party’s costs and expenses arising out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, claim or proceeding shall be losses subject to indemnification hereunder. The indemnified party shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the indemnified party which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the indemnified party fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. If the indemnifying party elects to defend any such action or claim, then the indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in such defense with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent. Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI to the contrary, the indemnifying party shall not, without the indemnified party’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof

which imposes any future obligation on the indemnified party or which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim. The indemnification required by this Article VI shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred, so long as the indemnified party irrevocably agrees to refund such moneys if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such party was not entitled to indemnification. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or similar rights of the indemnified party against the indemnifying party or others, and (b) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

ARTICLE VII

Miscellaneous

Section 7.1 Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its advisors, counsel, accountants and other experts, if any, and all other expenses, incurred by such party incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, provided that the Company shall pay all reasonable and itemized attorneys’ fees and expenses (including disbursements and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred by the Purchasers in connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereunder, which payment shall be made at the Closing, (ii) the filing and declaration of effectiveness by the Commission of the Registration Statement and (iii) any amendments, modifications or waivers of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents.

The Company shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Purchasers in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, all reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses but only if the Purchasers are successful in any litigation or arbitration relating to such enforcement.

Section 7.2 Specific Enforcement, Consent to Jurisdiction.

(a) The Company and the Purchasers acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof or thereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which any of them may be entitled by law or equity.

(b) Each of the Company and the Purchasers (i) hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court sitting in the Southern District of New York and the courts of the State of New York located in New York county for the purposes of any suit,

action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby and (ii) hereby waives, and agrees not to assert in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such court, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each of the Company and the Purchasers consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing in this Section 7.2 shall affect or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

Section 7.3 Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement and the Transaction Documents collectively contain the entire understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to the matters covered hereby and, except as specifically set forth herein or in the Transaction Documents, neither the Company nor any of the Purchasers makes any representations, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters and they supersede all prior understandings and agreements with respect to said subject matter, all of which are merged herein. No provision of this Agreement may be waived or amended other than by a written instrument signed by the Company and the holders of at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the Preferred Shares then outstanding, and no provision hereof may be waived other than by an a written instrument signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such amendment or waiver is sought. No such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it applies to less than all of the holders of the Preferred Shares then outstanding. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents or holders of Preferred Shares, as the case may be.

Section 7.4 Notices.

Section 7.6 Headings. The article, section and subsection headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

Section 7.8 No Third Party Beneficiaries.

Section 7.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement and shall become effective when

counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other parties hereto, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile or electronic transmission, such signature shall create a valid binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or electronic signature were the original thereof.

Section 7.12 Publicity. The Company agrees that it will not disclose, and will not include in any public announcement, the name of the Purchasers without the consent of the Purchasers unless and until such disclosure is required by law or applicable regulation, and then only to the extent of such requirement.

Section 7.13 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents are severable and, in the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any one or more of the provisions or part of the provisions contained in this Agreement or the Transaction Documents shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or part of a provision of this Agreement or the Transaction Documents and such provision shall be reformed and construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision, or part of such provision, had never been contained herein, so that such provisions would be valid, legal and enforceable to the maximum extent possible.

Section 7.14 Further Assurances. From and after the date of this Agreement, upon the request of any Purchaser or the Company, each of the Company and the Purchasers shall execute and deliver such instrument, documents and other writings as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to confirm and carry out and to effectuate fully the intent and purposes of this Agreement, the Preferred Shares, the Conversion Shares, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares, the Certificate of Designation, the Registration Rights Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Nothing in this Section 7.15 shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. In the event of a termination pursuant to this Section 7.15, the Company shall promptly notify all non-terminating Purchasers. Upon a termination in accordance with this Section 7.15, the Company and the terminating Purchaser(s) shall not have any further obligation or liability (including arising from such termination) to the other, and no Purchaser will have any liability to any other Purchaser under the Transaction Documents as a result therefrom.
