matters, has made investments of a speculative nature and has purchased shares
or debt of United States publicly-owned companies in private placements in the
past and, with its representatives, has such knowledge and experience in

with 1933 Act. Such Subscriber understands and agrees that the
Debentures have not been registered under the 1933 Act or any applicable state
securities laws, by reason of their issuance in a transaction that does not
require registration under the 1933 Act (based in part on the accuracy of the
representations and warranties of the Subscriber contained herein), and that
such Debentures must be held indefinitely unless a subsequent disposition is
registered under the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities laws or is
exempt from such registration. The Subscriber acknowledges that the
Subscriber 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. The Subscriber understands that to the extent that Rule 144 is
not available, the Subscriber will be unable to sell any Debentures without
either registration under the 1933 Act or the existence of another exemption
from such registration requirement.
(i) Debentures

legend:

Debentures have not been registered under the 1933 Act and such Subscriber will
not sell, offer to sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise transfer any
of the Debentures unless pursuant to an effective registration statement under
the 1933 Act, or unless an exemption from registration is
available. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this

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
the Subscriber set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of such
exemptions and the suitability of the Subscriber to acquire the
Debentures.
(n) No

rise to any claim by any person for brokerage commissions, finder’s fees or
similar payments relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby.

with each Subscriber that:
5
(a) Due
Incorporation. The Company is a corporation or other entity
duly incorporated or organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization and has the
requisite corporate power to own its properties and to carry on its business as
presently conducted. The Company is duly qualified as a foreign
corporation to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where
the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such
qualification necessary, other than those jurisdictions in which the failure to
so qualify would not have a Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of
this Agreement, a “Material
Adverse Effect” means any material adverse effect on the business,
operations, properties, or financial condition of the Company and its
Subsidiaries individually, or in the aggregate and/or any condition,
circumstance, or situation that would prohibit or otherwise materially interfere
with the ability of the Company to perform any of its obligations under this
Agreement in any material respect. For purposes of this Agreement, “Subsidiary” means, with
respect to any entity at any date, any corporation, limited or general
partnership, limited liability company, trust, estate, association, joint
venture or other business entity of which more than 30% of (i) the
outstanding capital stock having (in the absence of contingencies) ordinary
voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or other managing
body of such entity, (ii) in the case of a partnership or limited liability
company, the interest in the capital or profits of such partnership or limited
liability company or (iii) in the case of a trust, estate, association,
joint venture or other entity, the beneficial interest in such trust, estate,
association or other entity business is, at the time of determination,
owned or controlled directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries,
by such entity.
(b) Outstanding
Stock. All issued and outstanding shares of capital stock and
equity interests in the Company have been duly authorized and validly issued and
are fully paid and non-assessable.
(c) Authority;
Enforceability. This Agreement, the Debentures, and any other
agreements delivered together with this Agreement or in connection herewith
(collectively, the “Transaction
Documents”) have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the
Company and are valid and binding agreements of the Company enforceable in
accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent
transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability
relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles
of equity. The Company has full corporate power and authority
necessary to enter into and deliver the Transaction Documents and to perform its
obligations thereunder.

consent, approval, authorization or order of any court, governmental agency or
body or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Company, or any of its
Affiliates, the Over The Counter Bulletin Board (the “Bulletin Board”) or the
Company’s shareholders is required for the execution by the Company of the
Transaction Documents and compliance and performance by the Company of its
obligations under the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, the
issuance and sale of the Debentures. The Transaction Documents and
the Company’s performance of its obligations thereunder have been approved by
the Company’s Board of Directors. No consent, approval, order or
authorization of, or registration, qualification, designation, declaration or
filing with, any governmental authority in the world, including without
limitation, the United States, or elsewhere is required by the Company or any
Affiliate of the Company in connection with the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, except as would not otherwise have a Material
Adverse Effect or the consummation of any of the other agreements, covenants or
commitments of the Company or any Subsidiary contemplated by the other
Transaction Documents. Any such qualifications and filings will, in the case of
qualifications, be effective on the Closing and will, in the case of filings, be
made within the time prescribed by law.
6
(f) No Violation or
Conflict. Assuming the representations and warranties of the
Subscriber in Section 3 are true and correct, neither the issuance nor sale of
the Debentures nor the performance of the Company’s obligations under this
Agreement and all other Transaction Documents entered into by the Company
relating thereto will:
(i)
violate, conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default (or an
event which with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both would be
reasonably likely to constitute a default) under (A) the articles or certificate
of incorporation, charter or bylaws of the Company, or (B) to the Company’s
knowledge, any decree, judgment, order, law, treaty, rule, regulation or
determination applicable to the Company of any court, governmental agency or
body, or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Company or over the properties
or assets of the Company or any of its Affiliates; or
(ii) result
in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon the
Debentures or any of the assets of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries.

is no pending or, to the best knowledge of the Company, threatened action, suit,

arbitrator having jurisdiction over the Company, or any of its Affiliates that
would affect the execution by the Company or the complete and timely performance
by the Company of its obligations under the Transaction
Documents.

Company. The Reports contain all material information relating
to the Company and its operations and financial condition as of their respective
dates which information is required to be disclosed
therein. The Reports, including the financial statements
included therein do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein, taken as a whole, not misleading in light of the
circumstances and when made.
7
(k) No General
Solicitation. Neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates,
nor to its knowledge, any person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in

the Company shall use diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission for the
registration of all of the Registrable Shares) pursuant to Rule 415 for resale
and distribution under the 1933 Act as soon as practicable after the Closing
Date, and use its reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be
declared effective. The Company will register not less than 100% of
the Conversion Shares in the Registration Statement (the “Registrable
Shares”).

Section 5(a) to effect the registration of any Registrable Shares under the 1933
Act, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:

registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be
necessary to keep such registration statement effective until such registration

effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing or which
becomes subject to a Commission, state or other governmental order suspending
the effectiveness of the registration statement covering any of the Registrable
Shares. Each Subscriber hereby covenants that it will not sell any Registrable
Shares pursuant to such prospectus during the period commencing at the time at
which the Company gives such Subscriber notice of the suspension of the use of

until the Company delivers to such Subscriber or files with the Commission an
amended or supplemented prospectus.

Documents. It shall be a condition precedent to the
obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this
Agreement with respect to the Registrable Shares of a particular Subscriber that

underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against any losses, claims,
damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Subscriber, or such
underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act or

light of the circumstances when made, and will subject to the provisions of
Section 5(e)(iii) reimburse the Subscriber, each such underwriter and each such
controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them
in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to
the Subscriber to the extent that any such damages arise out of or are based
upon an untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus if (i)
the Subscriber failed to send or deliver a copy of the final prospectus
delivered by the Company to the Subscriber with or prior to the delivery of
written confirmation of the sale by the Subscriber to the person asserting the
claim from which such damages arise, and the final prospectus would have
corrected such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or such omission or
alleged omission, or (ii) to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or
liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information
furnished by any such Subscriber in writing specifically for use in such
registration statement or prospectus.
(ii)
In the event of a registration of any of the Registrable Shares under the 1933

each officer of the Company who signs the registration statement, each director
of the Company, each underwriter and each person who controls any underwriter
within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against all losses, claims, damages or
liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such officer, director,
underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act or
otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement
under which such Registrable Shares were registered under the 1933 Act pursuant
to Section 5, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein,
or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the

stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and
will reimburse the Company and each such officer, director, underwriter and
controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them
in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action, provided, however, that the Subscriber will be liable
hereunder in any such case if and only to the extent that any such loss, claim,
damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon
and in conformity with information pertaining to such Subscriber, as such,
furnished in writing to the Company by such Subscriber specifically for use in
such registration statement or prospectus.
10
(iii) Promptly
after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice of the commencement of
any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be
made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in
writing thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not
relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party other
than under this Section 5(e)(iii) and shall only relieve it from any liability
which it may have to such indemnified party under this Section 5(e)(iii), except
and only if and to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced by such
omission. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party
and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the
indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it
shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel
satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice from the indemnifying
party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume and undertake the
defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified
party under this Section 5(e)(iii) for any legal expenses subsequently incurred
by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than
reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel so selected,
provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action include both the
indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnifying party shall
have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to
indemnified party which are different from or additional to those available to
the indemnifying party or if the interests of the indemnified party reasonably
may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, the
indemnified parties, as a group, shall have the right to select one separate
counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified and indemnifying party, and
to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of
such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and
other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the
indemnifying party as incurred.

(b) Entire Agreement;
Amendment. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents 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 the Subscriber 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
nor any of the Transaction Documents may be waived or amended other than by a
written instrument signed by the Company and the Subscriber, and no provision
hereof may be waived other than by a written instrument signed by the party
against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought.
(c) Counterparts/Execution. This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different
signatories hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed,
shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute but one
and the same instrument. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile
transmission, PDF, electronic signature or other similar electronic means with
the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original
thereof.
(d) Law Governing this
Agreement. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to
principles of conflicts of laws. Any action brought by either party against the
other concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be
brought only in the state courts of New York or in the federal courts located in
the state and county of New York. The parties to this Agreement
hereby irrevocably waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action
instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack of
jurisdiction or venue or based upon forum non
conveniens. The parties executing this Agreement
and other agreements referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith on
behalf of the Company agree to submit to the in personam jurisdiction of such
courts and hereby irrevocably waive trial by jury. The
prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the other party its
reasonable attorney’s fees and costs. In the event that any provision
of this Agreement or any other agreement delivered in connection herewith is
invalid or unenforceable under any applicable statute or rule of law, then such
provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict
therewith and shall be deemed modified to conform with such statute or rule of
law. Any such provision which may prove invalid or unenforceable
under any law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other
provision of any agreement. Each party hereby irrevocably waives
personal service of process and consents to process being served in any suit,
action or proceeding in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction
Documents by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or
overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) 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 contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way
any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
(e) Consent to
Jurisdiction. The Company and the Subscriber hereby
irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert in any such suit, action or
proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction in
New York 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. Nothing in this Section shall affect or limit any right to
serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

Definitions. The captions of the various sections and
paragraphs of this Agreement have been inserted only for the purposes of

liability company, a trust, an unincorporated organization and a government or

(j) Severability. In
the event that any term or provision of this Agreement shall be finally
determined to be superseded, invalid, illegal or otherwise unenforceable
pursuant to applicable law by an authority having jurisdiction and venue, that
determination shall not impair or otherwise affect the validity, legality or
enforceability: (i) by or before that authority of the remaining terms and
provisions of this Agreement, which shall be enforced as if the unenforceable
term or provision were deleted, or (ii) by or before any other authority of any
of the terms and provisions of this Agreement.
