The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation by the Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or relating hereto do not and will not (i) result in a violation of such Purchaser’s charter documents or bylaws or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any material agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement, instrument or obligation to which the Purchaser is a party, (iii) create or impose or lien, charge or encumbrance on any property of the Purchaser under any agreement or any commitment to which the Purchaser is party or by which the Purchaser is bound or by which any of its respective properties or assets are bound, or (iv) result in a violation of any law, rule, or regulation, or any order, judgment or decree of any court or governmental agency applicable to the Purchaser or its properties, except for such conflicts, defaults and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, prohibit or otherwise interfere with the ability of the Purchaser to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect. The Purchaser is not required to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or to purchase the Shares in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, however, that for purposes of the representation made in this sentence, the Purchaser is assuming and relying upon the accuracy of the representations, warranties and agreements of the Company herein.

(d) Accredited Investor. The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

(e) Financial Risks. The Purchaser acknowledges that it is able to bear the financial risks associated with an investment in the Shares. The Purchaser is capable of evaluating the risks and merits of an investment in the Shares by virtue of its experience as an investor and its knowledge, experience, and sophistication in financial and business matters and the Purchaser is capable of bearing the entire loss of its investment in the Shares.

(f) Information. The Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Shares which have been requested by the Purchaser. The Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company. The Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to its acquisition of the Shares. The Purchaser understands that it (and not the Company) shall be responsible for its own tax liabilities that may arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(a) The Company shall not enter into any agreement in which the terms of such agreement would restrict or impair the right to perform of the Company or any Subsidiary under this Agreement or the Articles.

(b) The Company shall not enter into any agreement, the principal purpose of which is to secure an Other Financing (as defined below) during the Investment Period. “Other Financing” shall mean an “equity line” that is substantially similar to the financing provided for under this Agreement.

If at any time the Commission shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the Company will make commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of such order at the earliest possible time.

Section 4.11 Selling Restrictions; Volume Limitations.

(a) The Purchaser covenants that during the Investment Period neither the Purchaser nor any of its affiliates nor any entity managed by the Purchaser will, directly or indirectly, sell any securities of the Company except the Shares that it owns or has the right to purchase pursuant to the provisions of a Draw Down Notice.

During the Investment Period, the Purchaser shall not grant any option to purchase or acquire any right to dispose or otherwise dispose for value of any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, or warrants to purchase, any shares of Common Stock, or enter into any swap, hedge or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, the economic risk of ownership of the Common Stock, except for such sales permitted by the preceding two sentences. In addition, on a daily Trading Day basis, the Purchaser agrees to restrict the volume of sales of Shares by the Purchaser, its affiliates and any entity managed by the Purchaser to no more than ten percent (10%) (or such other percentage based on the length of the Draw Down Pricing Period) of the Shares purchased pursuant to such Draw Down Notice.

The Purchaser will receive a structuring fee from the Company equal to two percent (2%) of the Aggregate Limit payable from the gross proceeds from the first Draw Down (the “Structuring Fee”). If the Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 7 hereof before a Draw Down occurs, then the Structuring Fee is due upon such termination of this Agreement.

Section 4.14 DWAC Eligibility. The Company shall cause the Common Stock and its transfer agent to be, at the time of each Draw Down, eligible to participate in the DWAC system, and there will be no impediments at the time of each Draw Down to use of the DWAC system that could adversely affect consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

ARTICLE VI

DRAW DOWN TERMS

Section 6.1 Draw Down Terms. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and subject to Section 6.2 below, the parties agree (unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the parties in writing) as follows:

(a) The Company may, in its sole discretion, issue a Draw Down Notice (as defined in Section 6.1(h) hereof) for a specified Draw Down Amount Requested. The Purchaser shall be obligated to accept the Draw Down Notice, provided that the Purchaser, in its sole discretion, shall not be obligated to accept more than fifty percent (50%) of the Draw Down Amount Requested (less any reduction pursuant to Section 6.1(g) hereof) and shall have the option to purchase up to two hundred percent (200%) of the Draw Down Amount Requested. Subject to Section 6.1(g) below, the Purchaser shall pay a per Share amount equal to ninety percent (90%) of the average Daily Closing Price during the Draw Down Pricing Period (the “Purchase Price”). Subject to Section 4.7 hereof, the Draw Down Amount Requested shall not exceed four hundred percent (400%) (the “Draw Down Limit”) of the average daily trading volume for the ten (10) Trading Days immediately preceding the Draw Down Exercise Date; provided, however, that if the Company selects a Draw Down Pricing Period that is fewer than ten (10) consecutive Trading Days, the Draw Down Limit shall be reduced in proportion to the reduction made to the length of the Draw Down Pricing Period as mutually agreed upon by the Purchaser and the Company.

(b) Prior to commencement of the Draw Down Pricing Period, the Company shall deliver the Shares to be purchased in such Draw Down to the Purchaser.

(d) Each Draw Down shall be settled on the first Trading Day after the end of each Draw Down Pricing Period (the “Settlement Date”).

(e) At the end of each Draw Down Pricing Period, the Purchaser’s total Draw Down commitment under this Agreement shall be reduced by the total amount of the Draw Down Amount for such Draw Down Pricing Period.

(f) Each Draw Down will automatically expire immediately after the last Trading Day of each Draw Down Pricing Period.

(g) If the Daily Closing Price on a given Trading Day in the Draw Down Pricing Period, multiplied by ninety percent (90%), is less than the Threshold Price, then the total amount of the Draw Down Amount Requested will be reduced by 1/10th (or such other fraction based on the length of the Draw Down Pricing Period) and no Shares will be purchased or sold with respect to such Trading Day.

(h) As a condition to exercise of any Draw Down, the Company must (i) provide a notice to the Purchaser of the Company’s exercise of any Draw Down via facsimile transmission before commencement of trading on the first Trading Day of the Draw Down Pricing Period covered by such notice (the “Draw Down Notice”), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F and (ii) deliver the Shares to the Purchaser or its designees via DWAC, if the Company is approved for DWAC in an amount equal to the Draw Down Amount Requested (which amount shall be adjusted in the event that the amount accepted by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.1(a) hereof is different that the Draw Down Amount Requested). The date the Company delivers the Draw Down Notice and the Shares in accordance with this Section 6.1(h) shall be a “Draw Down Exercise Date.” The Draw Down Notice shall specify the Draw Down Amount Requested, set the Threshold Price for such Draw Down and designate the first Trading Day of the Draw Down Pricing Period that the Company wishes to grant to the Purchaser during the Draw Down Pricing Period.

(i) On each Settlement Date, the Purchaser shall provide the Company a closing notice in the form of Exhibit H attached hereto and shall make payment for the Shares acquired pursuant to this Agreement to the Company’s designated account by wire transfer of immediately available funds, provided that the Shares were received by the Purchaser in accordance with 6.1(b) hereof.

(j) Purchaser has agreed to invest in publicly traded companies in the company’s vertical markets subject to the Purchaser’s normal investment criteria and process.

Section 6.2 Aggregate Limit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event may the Company issue a Draw Down Notice to the extent that the sale of shares of Common Stock pursuant thereto and pursuant to all prior Draw Down Notices issued hereunder would cause the Company to sell or the Purchaser to purchase shares of Common Stock which in the aggregate are in excess of the Aggregate Limit. If the Company issues a Draw Down Notice that otherwise would permit the Purchaser to purchase shares of Common Stock which would cause the aggregate purchases by Purchaser hereunder to exceed the Aggregate Limit, such Draw Down Notice shall be void ab initio to the extent of the amount by which the dollar value of shares or number of shares, as the case may be, of Common Stock otherwise issuable pursuant to such Draw Down Notice or together with the dollar value of shares or number of shares, as the case may be, of all other Common Stock purchased by the Purchaser pursuant hereto would exceed the Aggregate Limit.

ARTICLE VII

FINATION

Section 7.1 Term, Termination by Mutual Consent. Unless earlier terminated as provided hereunder, this Agreement shall terminate automatically on the earlier of (i) twenty four (24) consecutive months from the Effective Date (the “Investment Period”) and (ii) the date the Purchaser shall have purchased the Aggregate Limit. This Agreement may be terminated at any time by mutual written consent of the parties, effective as of the date of such mutual written consent unless otherwise provided in such written consent.

Section 7.2 Other Termination. The Company shall inform the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement within the subsequent thirty (30) days (the “Event Period”), effective upon written notice to the Company under Section 9.4 in the Event Period, if during the Investment Period (x) the Company enters into a definitive agreement with any third party, the principal purpose of which is to secure any equity line financing which provides for an Other Financing as defined in 4.9(b) above, or (y) an event resulting in a Material Adverse Effect or Material Change in Ownership has occurred. In such event, the Purchaser may terminate this Agreement upon one (1) business day’s prior written notice during the Event Period.

Section 7.3 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination by the Company or the Purchaser, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other party as provided in Section 9.4 and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be terminated without further action by either party. If this Agreement is terminated as provided in Section 7.1 or 7.2 herein, this Agreement shall become void and of no further force and effect, except as provided in Section 9.9 hereof. Nothing in this Section 7.3 shall be deemed to release the Company or the Purchaser from any liability for any breach under this Agreement, or to impair the rights of the Company and the Purchaser to compel specific performance by the other party of its obligations under this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1 General Indemnity.

(a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, GEM and each person who controls the Purchaser or GEM within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable costs of defense and investigation and all attorneys’ fees) to which the Purchaser, GEM and each such controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained, or incorporated by reference, in the Registration Statement relating to Common Stock being sold to the Purchaser (including any prospectus relating thereto), or any amendment or supplement to it, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement or any document incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. Pursuant to Section 8.2 hereof, the Company will reimburse the Purchaser, GEM and each such controlling person promptly upon demand for any legal or other costs or expenses reasonably incurred by the Purchaser, GEM or such controlling person in investigating, defending against, or preparing to defend against any such claim, action, suit or proceeding.

(b) Indemnification by the Purchaser. The Purchaser will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable costs of defense and investigation and all attorneys fees) to which the Company and each such controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) an untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission, included in the Registration Statement in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information furnished by the Purchaser to the Company for inclusion in the Registration Statement, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent, the untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information furnished by the Purchaser to the Company for inclusion in the Registration Statement. Pursuant to Section 8.2 hereof, the Purchaser will reimburse the Company and each such director, officer or controlling person promptly upon demand for any legal or other costs or expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or the other person in investigating, defending against, or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense.

Section 8.2 Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after a person receives notice of a claim or the commencement of an action for which the person intends to seek indemnification under Section 8.1, the person will notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or commencement of the action, suit or proceeding; provided, however, that failure to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from liability under Section 8.1, except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by the failure to give notice. The indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in the defense of any claim, action, suit or proceeding as to which indemnification is being sought, and if the indemnifying party acknowledges in writing the obligation to indemnify the party against whom the claim or action is brought, the indemnifying party may (but will not be required to) assume the defense against the claim, action, suit or proceeding with counsel satisfactory to it. After an indemnifying party notifies an indemnified party that the indemnifying party wishes to assume the defense of a claim, action, suit or proceeding, the indemnifying party will not be liable for any legal or other expenses incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense against the claim, action, suit or proceeding except that if, in the opinion of counsel to the indemnifying party, one or more of the indemnified parties should be separately represented in connection with a claim, action, suit or proceeding, the indemnifying party will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel for the indemnified parties. Each indemnified party, as a condition to receiving indemnification as provided in Section 8.1, will cooperate in all reasonable respects with the indemnifying party in the defense of any action or claim as to which indemnification is sought. No indemnifying party will be liable for any settlement of any action effected without its prior written consent. No indemnifying party will, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of a pending or threatened action with respect to which an indemnified party is, or is informed that it may be, made a party and for which it would be entitled to indemnification, unless the settlement includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability and claims which are the subject matter of the pending or threatened action.

If for any reason the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is not available to, or is not sufficient to hold harmless, an indemnified party in respect of any loss or liability referred to in Section 8.1 as to which it is entitled to indemnification thereunder, each indemnifying party will, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such loss or liability, (i) in the proportion which is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party on the one hand and by the indemnified party on the other from the sale of Shares which is the subject of the claim, action, suit or proceeding which resulted in the loss or liability or (ii) if that allocation is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits of the sale of such Shares, but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party with respect to the statements or omissions which are the subject of the claim, action, suit or proceeding that resulted in the loss or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

ARTICLE IX
