business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which the
nature of the business conducted by it or location of the assets or properties owned, leased or
licensed by it requires such qualification, except for such jurisdictions where the failure to so
qualify individually or in the aggregate would not have a material adverse effect on the assets,
properties, condition, financial or otherwise, or in the results of operations, business affairs
or business prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries considered as a whole (a “Material
Adverse Effect”); and to the Company’s knowledge, no proceeding has been instituted in any such
jurisdiction revoking, limiting or curtailing, or seeking to revoke, limit or curtail, such power
and authority or qualification.
4.2 Capitalization. As of the date hereof, the authorized capital stock of the
Company consists of 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock,

date hereof. The certificates evidencing the Purchased Shares issued to the Purchaser pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement are in due
-3-
and proper legal form and have been duly authorized for issuance by the Company. All of the
issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock have been duly and validly
issued and are fully paid and nonassessable. There are no statutory preemptive or other similar
rights to subscribe for or to purchase or acquire any shares of Common Stock of the Company or
any of its subsidiaries or any such rights pursuant to its Articles of Incorporation or
Certificate of Incorporation or by-laws or any agreement or instrument to or by which the Company
or any of its subsidiaries is a party or bound. The Purchased Shares, when issued and delivered
and paid for as provided herein, will be duly and validly issued and will be fully paid and
nonassessable and will be issued free and clear of any security interests, liens, encumbrances,
equities or claims. Except as disclosed in the Confidential Private Placement Memorandum, dated
May 8, 2007 and attached hereto as Annex B, relating to the offering of the Shares, including all
exhibits thereto, documents expressly incorporated by reference therein and annexes thereto, as
the same was supplemented pursuant to the Supplement No. 1 to Confidential Private Placement

Subsidiaries have been duly authorized and validly issued, and are fully paid and nonassessable
and are owned directly by the Company or by another wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company free
and clear of any security interests, liens, encumbrances, equities or claims.

delivered by the Company and, assuming execution by each of the other parties thereto, constitute

remedies, and except as rights to indemnity or contribution, including, but not limited to, the
indemnification provisions contained in Section 7.3 of this Agreement, may be limited by federal

action has been duly and validly taken by the Company to authorize the execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement and the issuance and sale of the Purchased Shares by the Company.
4.4 No Default or Consents. Neither the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement by the Company nor the consummation by the Company of any of the transactions
contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, the issuance and sale by the Company of the
Purchased Shares) will give rise to a right to terminate or accelerate the due date of any
payment due under, or conflict with or result in the breach of any term or provision of, or
constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a

Shares will bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form:
“THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE

EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, IN EACH
CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND THE
SECURITIES LAWS OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS, AND IN THE CASE OF A
TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION, UNLESS THE COMPANY HAS

set forth immediately below the Purchaser’s name on the signature pages hereto.

threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, (iv) upon the occurrence of any event or passage
of time that makes the financial statements included in the Registration Statement ineligible for
inclusion therein or any statement made in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any
document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material
respect, or (v) in light of the existence of material non-public information regarding the
Company which the Board of Directors of the Company reasonably determines not to be in the best
interests of the Company to disclose, including a significant business opportunity (including,
but not limited to, the acquisition or disposition of assets (other than in the ordinary course
of business) or any merger, consolidation, tender offer or similar transaction) available to the
Company, but which would be required to be disclosed in a Registration Statement, the Company may
be required to suspend the use of the Prospectus (a “Suspension”) until such time as an amendment
to the Registration Statement has been filed by the Company and declared effective by the
Commission, or until such time as the Company has filed an appropriate report with the Commission
pursuant to the Exchange Act. Without the Company’s prior written consent, which consent shall
not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, the Purchaser shall not use any written materials to
offer the Purchased Shares, the Warrant Shares or the Option Shares for resale other than the
Prospectus, including any “free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities
Act. The Purchaser hereby covenants that it will not sell any Purchased Shares, the Warrant
Shares or Option Shares pursuant to said Prospectus during the period commencing at the time at
which the Company gives the Purchaser written notice of the Suspension of the use of said

Purchaser may thereafter effect sales pursuant to said Prospectus. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company agrees that no Suspension shall be for a period of longer than 60
consecutive days, and no Suspension shall be for a period of an aggregate in any 365-day period

authority and capacity to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby and has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement, (ii) the making and performance of this Agreement by the Purchaser
and the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated will not violate any provision of
the organizational documents of the Purchaser or conflict with, result in the breach or violation
of, or constitute, either by itself or upon notice or the passage of time or both, a default
under any material agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, lease, franchise, license, indenture,
permit or other instrument to which the Purchaser is a party, or any statute or any
authorization, judgment, decree, order, rule or regulation of any court or any regulatory body,
administrative agency or other governmental agency or body applicable to the Purchaser, (iii) no
consent, approval, authorization or other order of any court, regulatory body, administrative
agency or other governmental agency or body is required on the part of the Purchaser for the
execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, (iv) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, this Agreement shall
constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with
its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other laws of general application relating to the enforcement of
creditor’s rights and the application
-15-
of equitable principles relating to the availability of remedies, and except as rights to
indemnity or contribution, including, but not limited to, the indemnification provisions set
forth in Section 7.3 of this Agreement, may be limited by federal or state securities laws or the
public policy underlying such laws, and (v) there is not in effect any order enjoining or
restraining the Purchaser from entering into or engaging in any of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement.

30-day period ending on the First Closing Date, the Purchaser has not taken, and for a period of
one year commencing on the First Closing Date (the “Post-Closing Period”) the Purchaser shall not

effected any short sale of the Common Stock, whether or not against the box, established any “put
equivalent position” (as defined in Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act) with respect to the
Common Stock, or granted any other derivative right similar to the foregoing (including, without
limitation, any put or call option with respect to the Common Stock, but, for the avoidance of
doubt, excluding a sale of the Common Stock) (collectively, “Short Sale Activities”), and (y)
during the Post-Closing Period, the Purchaser shall not knowingly cause, command or induce, or
act in concert with, any affiliate of the Purchaser for the purposes of effecting the commission
of any Short Sale Activity for the direct economic benefit of the Purchaser’s securities
portfolio by or through such affiliate.
SECTION 6. Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. Notwithstanding
any investigation made by any party to this Agreement or by the Placement Agent, all covenants and
agreements made by the Company and the Purchaser herein and in the certificates for the Purchased
Shares delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the execution of this Agreement, the delivery to the
Purchaser of the Purchased Shares being purchased and the payment therefor. All representations
and warranties made by the Company and the Purchaser herein and in the certificates for the

Exchange Act; and
(ii) the term “Registration Statement” shall include any

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and each
Purchaser/Affiliate against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, joint or several,
to which the Purchaser or Purchaser/Affiliate may become subject, under the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act, or any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or
otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the prior
written consent of the Company), insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses
(or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arise out of or are based upon any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement,
including the Prospectus, financial statements and schedules, and all other documents filed as a
part thereof, as amended at the time of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, including any
information deemed to be a part thereof as of the time of effectiveness pursuant to paragraph (b)
of Rule 430A, or pursuant to Rules 430B, 430C or 434, of the Rules and Regulations, or the
Prospectus, in the form first filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and

therein or necessary to make the statements in any of them, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading, or arise out of or are based in whole or in part on any
breach by the Company of the representations or warranties of the Company contained in this
Agreement, or any failure of the
-18-
Company to perform its obligations hereunder or under law, and will promptly reimburse the
Purchaser and each such Purchaser/Affiliate for any legal and other expenses as such expenses are
reasonably incurred by the Purchaser or such Purchaser/Affiliate in connection with investigating,
defending or preparing to defend, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage,
liability, expense or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be
liable for amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such
settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, and, provided further, that the Company will not be liable in any such
case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or expense arises out of or
is based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission
made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Purchaser
expressly for use therein, or (ii) the failure of the Purchaser to comply with the covenants and
agreements contained in Sections 5 or 7.2, or (iii) the breach by the Purchaser of any
representation or warranty made by the Purchaser herein, or (iv) any statement or omission in any
Prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent Prospectus that was delivered to the Purchaser prior
to the pertinent sale or sales by the Purchaser, or (v) any violation by the Purchaser of any
applicable federal or state securities laws, rule or regulations.
(b) The Purchaser will severally, but not jointly with the Other Purchasers, indemnify and
hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers, including such officers who
signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which the Company, each of its directors, each of its
officers and each such controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act, or any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or
otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, but only if such settlement is effected with
the written consent of the Purchaser) insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arise out of or are based upon (i)
any failure to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Sections 5 or 7.2 hereof, or
(ii) the breach by the Purchaser of any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser herein, or
(iii) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration
Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto not
misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made, in each case to the extent,
but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company by the Purchaser expressly for use therein, and will reimburse the Company, each of its
directors, each of its officers and each such controlling person for any legal and other expense
reasonably incurred by the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers and each such
controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying
any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided, however, that the Purchaser’s

(“Proceeds”).
-19-
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7.3 of notice of the
threat or commencement of any action, indemnifiable hereunder such indemnified party will, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 7.3,
promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof; but the omission so to notify the
indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified
party for contribution or otherwise under the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7.3 to
the extent it is not prejudiced as a result of such failure. In case any such action is brought
against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an
indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent
that it may wish, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, to assume the
defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided,
however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded, based on an opinion
of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnifying party, that there may be a conflict of
interest between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting
the defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other
indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying
party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume
such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such
indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such
indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such action and approval by the
indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party
under this Section 7.3 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified
party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed
such counsel in connection with the assumption of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to
the preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be
liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel, reasonably satisfactory to such
indemnifying party, representing all of the indemnified parties who are parties to such action) or
(ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of
commencement of action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be
at the expense of the indemnifying party. In no event shall any indemnifying party be liable in
respect of any amounts paid in settlement of any action unless the indemnifying party shall have
approved in writing the terms of such settlement; provided that such consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the
indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of
which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been
sought hereunder by such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter
of such proceeding.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.3 is required by its terms but is
for any reason held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to or otherwise
insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) of this Section
7.3 in respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein, then
each applicable indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to
herein (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the
-20-
Company and the Purchaser from the private placement of Purchased Shares and the Warrant
Shares hereunder or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by
applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits
referred to in clause (i) above but the relative fault of the Company and the Purchaser in
connection with the statements or omissions or inaccuracies in the representations and warranties
in this Agreement and/or the Registration Statement which resulted in such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The respective
relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and each Purchaser on the other shall be
deemed to be in the same proportion as the amount paid by such Purchaser to the Company pursuant to
this Agreement for the Purchased Shares and the Warrant Shares purchased by such Purchaser that
were sold pursuant to the Registration Statement bears to the difference between the amount such
Purchaser paid for the Purchased Shares and the Warrant Shares that were sold pursuant to the
Registration Statement and the amount received by such Purchaser from such sale. The relative
fault of the Company, on the one hand, and each Purchaser on the other shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged statement of a material fact or the
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact or the inaccurate or the alleged inaccurate
representation and/or warranty relates to information supplied by the Company or by such Purchaser
and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include,
subject to the limitations set forth in paragraph (c) of this Section 7.3, any legal or other fees
or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any
action or claim. The provisions set forth in paragraph (c) of this Section 7.3 with respect to the
notice of the threat or commencement of any threat or action shall apply if a claim for
contribution is to be made under this paragraph (d); provided, however, that no
additional notice shall be required with respect to any threat or action for which notice has been
given under paragraph (c) for purposes of indemnification. The Company and each Purchaser agree
that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7.3 were
determined solely by pro rata allocation (even if the Purchasers were treated as one entity for
such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable
considerations referred to in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7.3,
the Purchaser shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the
Proceeds exceed the amount of any damages that such Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by
reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person
guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. The Purchaser’s obligation to contribute pursuant to this Section 7.3 is
several and not joint with the Other Purchasers.
7.4 Termination of Conditions and Obligations. The restrictions imposed by Section 5
or this Section 7 upon the transferability of the Purchased Shares (as well as the Warrant Shares
and Option Shares) shall cease and terminate as to any particular number of the Purchased Shares
(as well as the Warrant Shares and Option Shares) upon the earlier of (i) the passage of two years
from the effective date of the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities (unless
the Purchaser is then, or was during the preceding three months, an affiliate (as defined in Rule
144 promulgated under the Securities Act) of the Company and (ii)
-21-
such time as an opinion of counsel satisfactory in form and substance to the Company shall
have been rendered to the effect that such conditions are not necessary in order to comply with the
Securities Act.
7.5 Information Available. The Company, upon the reasonable request of the Purchaser
and with prior notice, will be available to the Purchaser or a representative thereof at the
Company’s headquarters to discuss information relevant for disclosure in the Registration Statement
covering the Registrable Securities and will otherwise cooperate with the Purchaser when conducting
an investigation for the purpose of reducing or eliminating the Purchaser’s exposure to liability
under the Securities Act, including the reasonable production of information at the Company’s
headquarters, subject to appropriate confidentiality limitations.
7.6 Delay in Filing or Effectiveness of Registration Statement. If the Registration
Statement is not filed by the Company with the Commission on or prior to the Filing Deadline, then
for each day following the Filing Deadline, until but excluding the date the Registration Statement
is filed, or if the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission by the
Effective Deadline, then for each day following the Effective Deadline, until but excluding the
date the Commission declares the Registration Statement effective, the Company shall pay the
Purchaser with respect to any such failure, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount
per 30-day period equal to 1.0% (prorated for a period of less than 30 days) of the purchase price
paid by the Purchaser for the Purchased Shares pursuant to this Agreement; and for any such 30-day
period, such payment shall be made no later than three business days following such 30-day period.
If the Purchaser shall be prohibited from selling Registrable Securities under the Registration
Statement as a result of a Suspension of more than thirty (30) days or Suspensions on more than two
(2) occasions of not more than thirty (30) days each in any 12-month period, then for the period
during which a Suspension (an “Excess Period Suspension”) is in effect that exceeds the maximum
allowed period for a Suspension or Suspensions, but not including any day on which a Suspension is
lifted, the Company shall pay the Purchaser, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount
per 30-day period equal to 1.0% (prorated for a period of less than 30 days) of the purchase price
paid by the Purchaser for the Purchased Shares pursuant to this Agreement, and such payment shall
be made no later than the first business day of the calendar month next succeeding the month in
which any such Excess Period Suspension occurs. For purposes of this Section 7.6, a Suspension
shall be deemed lifted on the date that notice that the Suspension has been lifted is delivered to
the Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.8 of this Agreement. Any payments made pursuant to this
Section 7.6 shall not constitute the Purchaser’s exclusive remedy for such events. Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions, in no event shall the Company be obligated to pay any liquidated damages
pursuant to this Section 7.6 (i) to more than one Purchaser in respect of the same securities for
the same period of time or (ii) in an aggregate amount that exceeds 10% of the purchase price paid
by the Purchasers for the securities purchased pursuant to the Agreements. Such payments shall be
made to the Purchasers in cash.
SECTION 8. Broker’s Fee. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company intends to pay
to the Placement Agent a fee in respect of the sale of the Purchased Shares to the Purchaser. The
Purchaser and the Company hereby agree that the Purchaser shall not be responsible for such fee and
that the Company will indemnify and hold harmless the
-22-
Purchaser and each Purchaser/Affiliate against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses, joint or several, to which the Purchaser or Purchaser/Affiliate may become subject with
respect to such fee. Each of the parties hereto hereby represents that, on the basis of any
actions and agreements by it, there are no other brokers or finders entitled to compensation in
connection with the sale of the Purchased Shares to the Purchaser.
SECTION 9. Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations
of the Purchaser under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any Other
Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the
obligations of any Other Purchaser under the Agreements. The decision of the Purchaser to purchase
the Purchased Shares pursuant to the Agreement has been made by the Purchaser independently of any
Other Purchaser. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken by the Purchaser
pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchaser and the Other Purchasers as a
partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption
that the Purchaser and the Other Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with
respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Purchaser
acknowledges that no Other Purchaser has acted as agent for the Purchaser in connection with making
its investment hereunder and that no Other Purchaser will be acting as agent of the Purchaser in
connection with monitoring its investment in the Purchased Shares or enforcing its rights under
this Agreement. The Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights,
including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be
necessary for any Other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such
purpose.
SECTION 10. Notices. All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing
and shall be deemed effectively given: (i) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified; (ii)
when received by confirmed facsimile or (iii) one (1) business day after deposit with a nationally
recognized overnight carrier, specifying next business day delivery, with written verification of
receipt. All communications shall be sent to the Company and the Purchaser as follows or at such

the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
SECTION 14. Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement is to be construed in accordance
with and governed by the federal law of the United States of America and the internal laws of the
State of California without giving effect to any choice of law rule that would cause the

to the rights and duties of the parties. Each of the Company and the Purchaser submits to the
nonexclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Central District of
California and of any California State court sitting in Los Angeles County for purposes of all
legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby. Each of the Company and the Purchaser irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such
proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court
has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
SECTION 15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts,
each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute
but one instrument, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by
each party hereto and delivered (including by facsimile) to the other parties.
SECTION 16. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and, subject to Section 22 hereof, the
instruments referenced herein contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the

respective executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and, subject to the provisions of
Section 7.3, no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement.
The term “successor and assigns” shall include any subsequent purchaser, as such purchaser, of the
Purchased Shares sold to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, to the extent such subsequent
purchaser is a permitted assignee of the Purchaser pursuant to Section 19.
SECTION 19. Assignment. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions
hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the parties hereto and their respective
successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators. This Agreement and the rights of the
Purchaser hereunder may be assigned by the Purchaser only with the prior written consent of the
Company, except such consent shall not be required in the case of (i) any assignment by an
investment adviser to a fund for which it is the adviser or by or among funds that are under common
control, or (ii) subject to the restrictions on transfer of the Retained Warrants as contained in
Section 4 of the Replacement Warrant Certificate, any assignment by any holder of Purchased Shares,
Retained Warrants or Warrant Shares to any transferee or assignee of such securities to the extent
such transfer of securities shall have not been consummated in violation of the provisions of this
Agreement, provided that, in each such case, such assignee agrees in writing to be bound by the
terms of this Agreement.
SECTION 20. Further Assurances. Each party agrees to cooperate fully with the other
party and to execute such further instruments, documents and agreements and to give such further
written assurance as may be reasonably requested by the other party to evidence and reflect the
transactions described herein and contemplated hereby and to carry into effect the intents and
purposes of this Agreement.

Company shall not publicly disclose the name of the Purchaser for marketing purposes or otherwise,
or include the name of the Purchaser in any filing with the Commission (other than the Registration
Statement and any exhibits to filings made in respect of this transaction in accordance with
periodic filing requirements under the Exchange Act) or any other regulatory agency or securities
exchange, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, except to the extent such disclosure
is required by applicable laws, rules or regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the
Purchaser with prior notice of such disclosure; provided, further, that
notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have the right to disclose the name of the
Purchaser in oral communications between the Company and its representatives and potential Other
Purchasers; provided, that, in connection with any disclosure pursuant to the foregoing proviso,
the Company shall only be permitted to disclose that the Purchaser has invested in the Common Stock
and shall not state or suggest that the Purchaser endorses, sponsors, promotes or encourages an
investment in the Company by any potential Other Purchaser.
SECTION 22. Cancellation of Previously Issued Securities; Supersession of Prior SPA and
Prior Warrant Certificate. As of the logical instant immediately preceding the First Closing,
all of the Preferred Shares, all of the Warrants other than the Retained Warrants
-25-
and all of the Purchaser’s rights under the Prior SPA (and the documents, instruments and
opinions (including legal opinions) incident thereto) shall be deemed irrevocably and indefeasibly
canceled and extinguished, of no further force or effect and no longer outstanding for any purpose
or manner whatsoever; and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Prior SPA and the
Prior Warrant Certificate (and the documents, instruments and opinions (including legal opinions)
incident thereto) shall thereupon be superseded and replaced in their entirety by this Agreement
