1.1 Authorization. The Company will, prior to the Initial Closing (as defined below), authorize (a) the sale and issuance of up to Sixty Thousand (60,000) shares (the "Shares") of the Company's Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Series B Preferred"), having the rights, privileges, preferences and restrictions set forth in the Certificate of Designation of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, in substantially the form attached as Exhibit B (the "Certificate of Designations"); and (b) the issuance of warrants, in substantially the form attached as Exhibit E (the "Warrants"), for the purchase of up to Six Hundred Fifty Thousand (650,000) shares (the "Warrant Shares") of the Company's Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock").
1.2 Sale and Issuance of Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the Investors agrees to purchase, and the Company agrees to sell and issue to each Investor, the number of Shares set forth in the column designated "Number of Series B Shares" opposite such Investor's name on Exhibit A, at a cash purchase price of Forty Dollars ($40.00) per share. The Company's agreement with each Investor is a separate agreement, and the sale of the Shares to each Investor is a separate sale.
1.3 Issuance of Warrants. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the Investors agrees to purchase, and the Company agrees to issue to each of the Investors, a Warrant exercisable for the number of Warrant Shares set forth in the column designated "Number of Warrant Shares" opposite such Investor's name on Exhibit A, each at an exercise price per share equal to the Fair Market Value (defined below) of a share of the Company's Common Stock. The Company's agreement with each Investor is a separate agreement, and the issuance of the Warrants to each Investor is a separate issuance. For purposes of this Section 1.3, "Fair Market Value" shall mean the average of the closing prices of the Company's Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market for trading days over the one-month period beginning on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date corresponding to the applicable Closing Date (defined below) in the month immediately preceding such Closing Date, and ending on, but excluding, the trading day immediately preceding the applicable Closing Date (defined below), rounded downward to the nearest whole cent ($0.01).

Representations and Warranties of the Company
Except as set forth on the Schedule of Exceptions attached as Exhibit C (the "Schedule of Exceptions") delivered to the Investors in connection with this Agreement, the Company represents and warrants to the Investors as of the date of this Agreement as follows:
3.1 Organization and Standing. The Company is a corporation duly organized and existing under, and by virtue of, the laws of the State of Delaware and is in good standing under such laws. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to own and operate its properties and assets, and to carry on its business as presently conducted. The Company is presently qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction where the failure to be so qualified could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition (a "Material Adverse Effect").

Upon the Initial Closing, the Company will have all requisite legal and corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, to sell and issue the Shares and the Warrants hereunder, to issue the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants, to issue the shares of the Common Stock of the Company issuable upon conversion of the Shares, and to carry out and perform its obligations under the terms of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement (together sometimes collectively referred to herein as the "Agreements").

The Common Stock and the Series B Preferred shall have the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions set forth in the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and in the Certificate of Designations.

(v) 2,152,460 shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance upon exercise of Common Stock warrants issued and outstanding as of the date of this Agreement.
3
(d) The Shares, when issued and delivered and paid for in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, and the Warrant Shares, when issued and delivered and paid for in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Warrants, will be validly issued, and will be fully paid and nonassessable. The Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares and the Warrant Shares have been duly and validly reserved and, when issued in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Certificate of Designations, the Warrants and applicable law, will be validly issued, and will be fully paid and nonassessable. The Shares, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares and the Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Shares will be free of any liens or encumbrances, other than any liens or encumbrances created by or imposed upon the Investors; provided, however, that the Shares, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares are subject to restrictions on transfer under U.S. state and/or federal securities laws and as set forth herein and in the Registration Rights Agreement and the Warrants. Except as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, the Shares, Warrants, the Warrant Shares and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares are not subject to any preemptive rights or rights of first refusal.
(e) Except for the conversion privileges of the Series B Preferred, the rights provided pursuant to the RE Ventures Agreement, options issued or authorized for issuance to employees, consultants and directors pursuant to the Company's stock plans, or as otherwise set forth above, there are no options, warrants or other rights to purchase any of the Company's authorized and unissued capital stock.
3.4 Authorization. All corporate action on the part of the Company, its directors and its stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution, delivery and performance of the Agreements by the Company, the authorization, sale, issuance and delivery of the Shares, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares, and the performance of all of the Company's obligations under the Agreements (other than those obligations contained in Section 2 of the Registration Rights Agreement) has been taken or will be taken prior to the Initial Closing. The Agreements, when executed and delivered by the Company, shall constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except (i) as limited by laws of general application relating to bankruptcy, insolvency and the relief of debtors, (ii) as limited by rules of law governing specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and by general principles of equity, and (iii) to the extent the indemnification provisions contained in the Registration Rights Agreement may further be limited by applicable laws and principles of public policy.
3.5 Governmental Consent. No consent, approval or authorization of or designation, declaration or filing with any governmental authority on the part of the Company is required in connection with the valid execution and delivery of this Agreement, or the offer, sale or issuance of the Shares, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares, or the consummation of any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement, except (i) filing of the Certificate of Designations with the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and (ii) qualification (or taking such action as may be necessary to secure an exemption from qualification, if available) of the offer and sale of the Shares, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares, under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws.

amended (the "Securities Act") and from the qualification requirements of the California Corporate Securities Law of 1968, as amended.
3.7 Brokers or Finders. The Company has not engaged any brokers, finders or agents, and the Investors have not incurred, and will not incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of any action taken by the Company, any liability for brokerage or finders' fees or agents' commissions or any similar charges in connection with the Agreements.
SECTION 4
Representations and Warranties of the Investors
Each Investor severally represents and warrants to the Company with respect to the purchase of the Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares and the underlying Common Stock as follows:
4.1 No Registration. The Investor understands that the Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares, and the underlying Common Stock, have not been, and, except in accordance with the terms set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, will not be, registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act, the availability of which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Investor's representations as expressed herein or otherwise made pursuant hereto.
4.2 Investment Intent. The Investor is acquiring the Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares, and the Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of the Shares and the Warrant Shares, for investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof.
4.3 Investment Experience. The Investor or its purchaser representative, within the meaning of Regulation D, Rule 501(h), promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission 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 its own interests.
4.4 Speculative Nature of Investment. The Investor acknowledges that its investment in the Company is highly speculative and entails a substantial degree of risk and the Investor is in a position to lose the entire amount of such investment.
4.5 Access to Data. The Investor has had an opportunity to discuss the Company's business, management and financial affairs with the Company's management. The Investor has also had an opportunity to ask questions of officers of the Company, which questions were answered to its satisfaction. The Investor understands that such discussions, as well as any information issued by the Company, were intended to describe certain aspects of the Company's business and prospects, but were not necessarily a thorough or exhaustive description. The Investor acknowledges that any business plans prepared by the Company have been, and continue to be, subject to change and that any projections included in such business plans or otherwise are necessarily speculative in nature, and it can be expected that some or all of the assumptions underlying the projections will not materialize or will vary significantly from actual results. The Investor has had an opportunity to review each form, report, schedule, registration statement, proxy statement and other document required to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC Filings").
5
4.6 Accredited Investor. The Investor is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Regulation D, Rule 501(a), promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
4.7 Residency. The residency of the Investor (or, in the case of a partnership or corporation, such entity's principal place of business) is correctly set forth on Exhibit A.
4.8 Restriction on Resales. The Investor acknowledges that the Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares, and the underlying Common Stock, must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from such registration is available. The Company has no present intention of registering the Shares, the Warrants or the Warrant Shares, or the underlying Common Stock, except as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement. The Investor further understands that there is no assurance that any exemption from registration under the Securities Act will be available or, if available, that such exemption will allow Investor to dispose of or otherwise transfer any or all of the Shares, the Warrants or the Warrant Shares, or the underlying Common Stock under the circumstances, in the amounts or at the times the Investor might propose.
4.9 Rule 144. The Investor is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act which permit limited resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including among other things, the existence of a public market for the shares, the availability of certain current public information about the Company, the resale occurring not less than one year after a party has purchased and paid for the security to be sold, the sale being effected through a "broker's transaction" or in transactions directly with a "market maker" and the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations. The Investor understands that the current public information referred to above is not now available and the Company has no present plans to make such information available. The Investor acknowledges and understands that notwithstanding any obligation under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company may not be satisfying the current public information requirement of Rule 144 at the time the Investor wishes to sell the Shares, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares or the underlying Common Stock, and that, in such event, the Investor may be precluded from selling such securities under Rule 144, even if the other requirements of Rule 144 have been satisfied. The Investor acknowledges that, in the event all of the requirements of Rule 144 are not met, registration under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration will be required for any disposition of the Shares, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares or the underlying Common Stock. The Investor understands that, although Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell restricted securities received in a private offering other than in a registered offering or pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales and that such persons and the brokers who participate in the transactions do so at their own risk.
4.10 No Public Market. The Investor understands and acknowledges that no public market now exists for the Shares of Series B Preferred or the Warrants issued by the Company and that the Company has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the Company's Series B Preferred or Warrants.
4.11 Authorization.
(a) The Investor has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver the Agreements, to purchase the Shares and the Warrants hereunder and to carry out and perform its obligations under the terms of the Agreements. All action on the part of the Investor necessary for the authorization,
6
execution, delivery and performance of the Agreements, and the performance of all of the Investor's obligations under the Agreements, has been taken or will be taken prior to the Closing.
(b) The Agreements, when executed and delivered by the Investor, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Investor, enforceable in accordance with their terms except: (i) to the extent that the indemnification provisions contained in the Registration Rights Agreement may be limited by applicable law and principles of public policy, (ii) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and (iii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies or by general principles of equity.
(c) No consent, approval, authorization, order, filing, registration or qualification of or with any court, governmental authority or third person is required to be obtained by the Investor in connection with the execution and delivery of the Agreements or the performance of the Investor's obligations hereunder or thereunder.
4.12 Brokers or Finders. The Investor has not engaged any brokers, finders or agents, and neither the Company nor any other Investor has, nor will, incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of any action taken by the Investor, any liability for brokerage or finders' fees or agents' commissions or any similar charges in connection with the Agreements.
4.13 Investor Counsel. The Investor acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to review the Agreements, the exhibits and schedules attached hereto and thereto, the SEC filings and the transactions contemplated by the Agreements with its own legal counsel. Each Investor is relying solely on such counsel and not on any statements or representations of the Company or its agents for legal advice with respect to this investment or the transactions contemplated by the Agreements.
4.14 Tax Advisors. The Investor has reviewed with its own tax advisors the U.S. federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by the Agreements. With respect to such matters, the Investor relies solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents, written or oral. The Investor understands that it (and not the Company) shall be responsible for its own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by the Agreements.
4.15 Further Limitations on Disposition. Without in any way limiting the representations and warranties set forth above, such Investor further agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Shares, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof unless and until (1) there is then in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with such registration statement or (2) such Investor shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and if reasonably requested by the Company, such Investor shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such registration statement or opinion of counsel shall be necessary for a transfer by such Investor:
(a) to a fund, partnership, limited liability company or other entity that is affiliated with such transferring Investor;
(b) to a partner or member (or retired partner or member) of such transferring Investor, or to the estate of any such partner or member (or retired partner or member);
7
(c) to such transferring Investor's spouse, siblings, lineal descendants or ancestors by gift, will or intestate succession; or
(d) in compliance with Rule 144(k) (or any successor provision) of the Securities Act so long as the Company is furnished with satisfactory evidence of compliance with such rule;
provided, however, that, in the case of (a), (b) or (c), the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the same extent as if he or she were an original Investor hereunder. Each Investor shall cause any proposed purchaser, assignee, transferee or pledgee of any Shares, Warrants or Warrant Shares or the underlying Common Stock held by the Investor to take and hold such securities subject to the provisions and upon the conditions of this Agreement. Each Investor consents to the Company's making a notation on its records and giving instructions to any transfer agent for its capital stock to implement the restrictions on transfer established in this Agreement.
4.16 Legends. Such Investor understands and agrees that the certificates evidencing the Shares, the Warrant Shares or any Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof, or any other securities issued in respect of the Shares, the Warrant Shares or any Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof upon any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or similar event, shall bear the legends required by the other Agreements, including legends relating to restrictions on transfer under federal and state securities laws and any legends which may be required by Sections 417 and 418 of the California Corporations Code and under applicable state securities laws.
4.17 Representations by Non-United States persons. If an Investor is not a United States person, such Investor hereby represents that such Investor is satisfied as to the full observance of the laws of such Investor's jurisdiction in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the Shares, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares and the underlying shares of Common Stock or any use of the Agreements, including (i) the legal requirements within such Investor's jurisdiction for the purchase of such securities, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale or transfer of such securities. Such Investor's subscription and payment for, and such Investor's continued beneficial ownership of, the Shares, the Warrants, the Warrant Shares and the underlying shares of Common Stock will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of such Investor's jurisdiction.

(b) if to any other holder of any Shares, Warrants or Warrant Shares or the underlying Common Stock, at such address as shown in the Company's records, or, until any such holder so furnishes an address to the Company, then to and at the address of the last holder of such Shares, Warrants or Warrants Shares or underlying Common Stock for which the Company has contact information in its records; or
(c) if to the Company, one copy should be sent to its address set forth on the cover page of this Agreement and addressed to the attention of the President, or at such other address as the Company shall have furnished to the Investors, with a copy to Xxxxxx X.

7.3 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the internal laws of the State of California as applied to agreements entered into among California residents to be performed entirely within California, without regard to principles of conflicts of law.
7.4 Brokers or Finders. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Investor from any liability for any commission or compensation in the nature of a brokerage or finder's fee or agent's commission (and the costs and expenses of defending against such liability or asserted liability) for which such Investor or any of its constituent partners, members, officers, directors, employees or representatives is responsible to the extent such liability is attributable to any inaccuracy or breach of the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.7, and each Investor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each other Investor from any liability for any commission or
10
compensation in the nature of a brokerage or finder's fee or agent's commission (and the costs and expenses of defending against such liability or asserted liability) for which the Company, any other Investor or any of their constituent partners, members, officers, directors, employees or representatives is responsible to the extent such liability is attributable to any inaccuracy or breach of the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.12.
7.5 Expenses. The Company and the Investors shall each pay their own expenses in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
7.6 Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made in this Agreement shall survive any investigation made by any party hereto and the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby for two years from the date of the Initial Closing.
7.7 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement, and any and all rights, duties and obligations hereunder, shall not be assigned, transferred, delegated or sublicensed by any Investor without the prior written consent of the Company. Any attempt by an Investor without such permission to assign, transfer, delegate or sublicense any rights, duties or obligations that arise under this Agreement shall be void. Subject to the foregoing and except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties.
7.8 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Agreements and the exhibits and schedules thereto constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects hereof and thereof, and no party shall be liable or bound to any other party in any manner with regard to the subjects hereof or thereof by any warranties, representations or covenants except as specifically set forth herein or therein.
7.9 Delays or Omissions. Except as expressly provided herein, no delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party to this Agreement upon any breach or default of any other party under this Agreement shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such non-defaulting party, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring, nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All remedies, either under this Agreement or by law or otherwise afforded to any party to this Agreement, shall be cumulative and not alternative.
7.10 Severability. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, the rights of the Investors hereunder are several rights, not rights jointly held with any of the other Investors. In the event that any provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without said provision, and the parties agree to negotiate, in good faith, a legal and enforceable substitute provision which most nearly effects the parties' intent in entering into this Agreement.
7.11 Titles and Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement. All references in this Agreement to sections, paragraphs, exhibits and schedules shall, unless otherwise provided, refer to sections and paragraphs hereof and exhibits and schedules attached hereto.
7.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be enforceable against the parties actually executing such counterparts, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.
11

At the request of any party hereto, all parties hereto agree to execute an original of this Agreement as well as any facsimile, telecopy or other reproduction hereof.
7.14 Jurisdiction; Venue. With respect to any disputes arising out of or related to this Agreement, the parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of, and venue in, the state courts in Santa Xxxxx County in the State of California (or in the event of exclusive federal jurisdiction, the courts of the Northern District of California).
7.15 Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING (WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT.
7.16 Further Assurances. Each party hereto agrees to execute and deliver, by the proper exercise of its corporate, limited liability company, partnership or other powers, all such other and additional instruments and documents and do all such other acts and things as may be necessary to more fully effectuate this Agreement.
7.17 Waiver of Potential Conflicts of Interest. Each of the Investors and the Company acknowledges that Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxx, Professional Corporation ("WSGR") may have represented and may currently represent certain of the Investors. In the course of such representation, WSGR may have come into possession of confidential information relating to such Investors. Each of the Investors and the Company acknowledges that WSGR is representing only the Company in this transaction. Each of the Investors and the Company understands that an affiliate of WSGR may also be an Investor under this Agreement. Pursuant to Rule 3-310 of the Rules of Professional Conduct promulgated by the State Bar of California, an attorney must avoid representations in which the attorney has or had a relationship with another party interested in the representation without the informed written consent of all parties affected. By executing this Agreement, each of the Investors and the Company hereby waives any actual or potential conflict of interest which may arise as a result of WSGR's representation of such persons and entities, WSGR's possession of such confidential information and the participation by WSGR's affiliate in the financing. Each of the Investors and the Company represents that it has had the opportunity to consult with independent counsel concerning the giving of this waiver.
