NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and representations set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

1.1 The Merger. At the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.2) and subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Certificate of Merger substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“Delaware Law”), Merger Sub shall be merged with and into Company, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and Company shall continue as the surviving corporation. Company as the surviving corporation after the Merger is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “Surviving Corporation.”

1.2 Closing; Effective Time. The closing of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) shall take place as soon as practicable after the satisfaction or waiver of each of the conditions set forth in Article VI hereof or at such other time as the parties hereto agree (the “Closing Date”). The Closing shall take place at the offices of Loeb & Loeb LLP, 00000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, or at such other location as the parties hereto agree. In connection with the Closing, the parties hereto shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, in accordance with the relevant provisions of Delaware Law (the time of such filing being the “Effective Time”).

1.3 Effect of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger and the applicable provisions of Delaware Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges, agreements, powers and franchises of Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

1.4 Effect on Capital Stock. By virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Merger Sub, Company or the holders of any of the following securities:

(a) Conversion of Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock. At the Effective Time, each share of Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares of Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock to be canceled pursuant to Section 1.4(b)) will be canceled and extinguished and be converted automatically into the right to receive 0.77616 shares of Parent Common Stock, subject to any adjustments made pursuant to Section 1.4(e) (the “Exchange Ratio”).

(b) Cancellation of Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock Owned by Company. At the Effective Time, all shares of Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock that are owned by Company as treasury stock and each share of Company Common Stock owned by any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof.

(c) Options and Warrants to Purchase Company Common Stock; Convertible Promissory Notes. At the Effective Time, (i) all options to purchase Company Common Stock then outstanding, and all warrants to purchase Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock shall be converted into the right to receive options and warrants to purchase Parent Common Stock in accordance with Section 5.8; and (ii) all then outstanding promissory notes convertible into Company’s capital stock, other than the convertible promissory note issued to United Natural Foods, Inc. and the convertible promissory note

issued to Satellite Credit Opportunities Fund, Ltd., will be repaid or cancelled, extinguished and be converted automatically into the right to receive such number of shares of Parent Common Stock based on the Exchange Ratio and as if such notes were converted immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(d) Capital Stock of Merger Sub. At the Effective Time, each share of common stock, $.001 par value, of Merger Sub (“Merger Sub Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and exchanged for one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation, and the Surviving Corporation shall be a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. Each stock certificate of Merger Sub evidencing ownership of any such shares shall continue to evidence ownership of such shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(e) Adjustments to Exchange Ratio. The Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any stock split, reverse split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Parent Common Stock, Company Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock), reorganization, recapitalization or other like change with respect to Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock or Company Preferred Stock occurring after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time, so as to provide holders of Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock and Parent the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such stock split, reverse split, stock dividend, reorganization, recapitalization or like change.

(f) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the Merger, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares shall be issued. Any holder of Company Common Stock and/or Company Preferred Stock who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock issuable to such holder) shall, in lieu of such fraction of a share, be paid in cash the dollar amount (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, determined by multiplying such fraction by the closing bid price of a share of Parent Common Stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTC BB”) on the date the Merger becomes effective.

1.5 Surrender of Certificates.

(a) Exchange Agent. Parent’s transfer agent shall act as exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) in the Merger.

(b) Parent to Provide Common Stock. Promptly after the Effective Time, Parent shall make available to the Exchange Agent for exchange in accordance with this Article I, through such reasonable procedures as Parent may adopt, the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 1.4(a) in exchange for shares of Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (provided that delivery of

any shares that are subject to vesting and/or repurchase rights or other restrictions shall be in book entry form until such vesting and/or repurchase rights or other restrictions lapse).

(c) Exchange Procedures. Promptly after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of a certificate or certificates (the “Certificates”) which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock, as well as to all Company optionholders, warrantholders and noteholders, as applicable, whose shares, options, warrants and notes were converted into the right to receive shares of Parent Common Stock and options and warrants to purchase Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 1.4, (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates, the option agreements and/or the warrant agreements shall pass, only upon receipt of the Certificates, the Company option agreements and/or the Company warrant agreements by the Exchange Agent, and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates, the Company option agreements and/or the Company warrant agreements in exchange for certificates or agreements (or book entries in the case of shares that are subject to vesting and/or repurchase rights or other restrictions) representing shares of Parent Common Stock and options and warrants to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock. Upon surrender of a Certificate, an option agreement and/or a warrant agreement for cancellation to the Exchange Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Parent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holder of such Certificate, Company option agreement and/or Company warrant agreement shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate (or book entry in the case of shares that are subject to vesting and/or repurchase rights or other restrictions) representing the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock and/or options and/or warrants to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock, and the amount in cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock, if any, which such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 1.4, and the Certificate, Company option agreement and/or Company warrant agreement so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Until so surrendered, each outstanding Certificate that, prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock and each option and warrant to purchase shares of Company Common Stock and/or Company Preferred Stock, will be deemed from and after the Effective Time, for all corporate purposes, other than the payment of dividends with respect to the capital stock, to evidence (i) the ownership of the number of full shares of Parent Common Stock into which such shares of Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock shall have been so converted, (ii) the ownership of the number of options and warrants to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock into which such Company options and warrants shall have been so converted, and (iii) the right to receive the amount in cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock, if any, in accordance with Section 1.4.

(d) Distributions With Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time will be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock represented thereby until the holder of record of such Certificate shall surrender such Certificate. Subject to applicable law, following surrender of any such Certificate, there shall be paid to the record holder of the certificates representing whole shares of Parent Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, at the time of such surrender, the amount of any such dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore payable (but for the provisions of this Section 1.5(d)) with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock.

(e) Transfers of Ownership. If any certificate for shares of Parent Common Stock is to be issued in a name other than that in which the Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it will be a condition of the issuance thereof that the Certificate so surrendered will be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the person requesting such exchange will have paid to Parent or any agent designated by it any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of a certificate for shares of Parent Common Stock in any name other than that of the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered, or established to the satisfaction of Parent or any agent designated by it that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(f) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.5, none of the Exchange Agent, the Surviving Corporation, Parent or any party hereto shall be liable to any person for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

1.6 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Common Stock. All shares of Parent Common Stock issued upon the surrender for exchange of shares of Company Common Stock, Company Preferred Stock and certain of Company’s convertible promissory notes then outstanding in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such securities, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Common Stock, shares of Company Preferred Stock and Company’s convertible promissory notes which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article I.

1.7 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, such shares of Parent Common Stock as may be required pursuant to Section 1.4; provided, however, that Parent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed

Certificates to deliver a bond in such sum as it may reasonably direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

1.8 Tax Consequences. It is intended by the parties hereto that the Merger shall constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code.

1.9 Withholding Rights. Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the number of shares of Parent Common Stock otherwise deliverable under this Agreement, such amounts as Parent and the Surviving Corporation are required, and Company acknowledges and agrees are required, to deduct and withhold with respect to such delivery and payment under the Code or any provision of state, local, provincial or foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been delivered and paid to the holder of shares of Company Common Stock in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Parent and the Surviving Corporation.

1.10 Termination of Exchange Agent Funding. Any certificates for shares of Parent Common Stock held by the Exchange Agent which have not been delivered to holders of Certificates pursuant to this Article I within six (6) months after the Effective Time shall promptly be delivered to Parent, and thereafter holders of Certificates who have not theretofore complied with the exchange procedures set forth in and contemplated by Section 1.5 shall thereafter look only to Parent (subject to abandoned property, escheat and similar laws) for their claim for shares of Parent Common Stock and any dividends or distributions (with a record date after the Effective Time) with respect to Parent Common Stock to which they are entitled.

1.11 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Company and Merger Sub, the officers and directors of Company and Merger Sub are fully authorized in the name of their respective corporations or otherwise to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary action, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

1.12 Shares Subject to Appraisal Rights.

(a) Notwithstanding Section 1.4, Dissenting Shares (as hereinafter defined) shall not be converted into a right to receive Parent Common Stock and the holders thereof shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by Delaware Law. Each holder of Dissenting Shares who becomes entitled to payment for such shares pursuant to Delaware Law shall receive payment therefor from the Surviving Corporation in accordance with the Delaware Law, provided, however, that (i) if any stockholder of Company who asserts appraisal rights in connection with the Merger (a “Dissenter”) has failed to establish his entitlement to such

rights as provided in Delaware Law, or (ii) if any such Dissenter has effectively withdrawn his demand for payment for such shares or waived or lost his right to payment for his shares under the appraisal rights process under Delaware Law the shares of Company Common Stock held by such Dissenter shall be treated as if they had been converted, as of the Effective Time, into a right to receive Parent Common Stock and as provided in Section 1.4. Company shall give Parent prompt notice of any demands for payment received by Company from a person asserting appraisal rights, and Parent shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settlement or offer to settle, any such demands.

(b) As used herein, “Dissenting Shares” means any shares of Company Common Stock and Company Preferred Stock held by stockholders of Company who are entitled to appraisal rights under Delaware Law, and who have properly exercised, perfected and not subsequently withdrawn or lost or waived their rights to demand payment with respect to their shares in accordance with Delaware Law.

There is no injunction, judgment, decree, order or regulatory restriction imposed upon Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective assets or business, or, to the knowledge of Company and its subsidiaries, any of their respective directors or officers (in their capacities as such), that would prevent, enjoin, alter or materially delay any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Company. Schedule 2.7 of the Company Disclosure Schedule lists all actions, suits, proceedings,

claims, arbitrations, audits and investigations pending before any agency, court or tribunal that involve Company or any of its subsidiaries.

2.8 Restrictions on Business Activities.

Company and its subsidiaries have good and valid title to all of their respective properties, interests in properties and assets, real and personal, reflected in the Company Balance Sheet or acquired after the Company Balance Sheet Date (except properties, interests in properties and assets sold or otherwise disposed of since the Company Balance Sheet Date in the ordinary course of business), or in the case of leased properties and assets, valid leasehold interests in, free and clear of all mortgages, liens, pledges, charges or encumbrances of any kind or character, except (i) the lien of current taxes not yet due and payable, (ii) such imperfections of title, liens and easements as do not and will not materially detract from or interfere with the use of the properties subject thereto or affected thereby, or otherwise materially impair business operations involving such properties, (iii) liens securing debt which is reflected on the Company Balance Sheet, and (iv) liens that in the aggregate would not have a Material Adverse Effect on Company. The plants, property and equipment of Company and its subsidiaries that are used in the operations of their businesses are in good operating condition and repair, except where the failure to be in good operating condition or repair would not have a Material Adverse Effect. All properties used in the operations of Company and its subsidiaries are reflected in the Company Balance Sheet to the extent generally accepted accounting principles require the same to be reflected. Schedule 2.10 of the Company Disclosure Schedule identifies each parcel of real property owned or leased by Company or any of its subsidiaries.
