(b) For purposes of this Agreement, a Permitted Financing (as defined hereinafter) shall not be considered a Subsequent Financing.  A “Permitted Financing” shall mean (i) securities issued pursuant to a bona fide acquisition of another business entity or business segment of any such entity by the Company pursuant to a merger, purchase of substantially all the assets or any type of reorganization (each an “Acquisition”) provided that (A) the Company will own more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of such business entity or business segment of such entity and (B) such Acquisition is approved by the Company’s Board of Directors; (ii) securities issued pursuant to the conversion or exercise of convertible or exercisable securities issued or outstanding on or prior to the date of this Agreement or issued pursuant to this Agreement (so long as the terms governing the conversion or exercise price in such securities are not amended to lower such price and/or adversely affect the Purchasers); (iii) securities issued in connection with bona fide strategic license agreements or other partnering arrangements so long as such issuances are not for the primary purpose of raising capital; (iv) Common Stock issued or the issuance or grants of options to purchase Common Stock, in each case, at no less than the then-applicable fair market value, pursuant to equity incentive plans that are adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors; (v) securities issued to any placement agent and its respective designees for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (vi) securities issued at no less than the then-applicable fair market value to advisors or consultants (including, without limitation, financial advisors and investor relations firms) in connection with any engagement letter or consulting agreement, provided that any such issuance is approved by the Company’s Board of Directors; (vii) securities issued to financial institutions or lessors in connection with reasonable commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions, provided that any such issue is approved by the Company’s Board of Directors; (viii) securities issued to vendors or customers or to other persons in similar commercial situations as the Company, provided that any such issue is approved by the Company’s Board of Directors; (ix) securities issued in connection with any recapitalization of the Company; or (x) securities issued pursuant to an underwritten public offering of its common stock.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, although the Company shall be entitled to complete a Permitted Financing, all Permitted Financings shall rank junior to the Notes.
 
Section 3.16 No Commissions in Connection with Conversion Notes.  In connection with the conversion of the Notes into the Note Shares, neither the Company nor any person acting on its behalf will take any action that would result in the Note Shares being exchanged by the Company other than with the then existing holders of the Notes exclusively where no commission or other remuneration is paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting the exchange in compliance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.
 
Section 3.17 Registration Rights.  The Purchasers are eligible for the registration rights set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement.

 
-27-
 

Section 3.18 No Manipulation of Price.  The Company will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or result in, or that has constituted or might reasonably be expected to constitute, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any securities of the Company.
 
Section 3.19 Independent Nature of Purchasers' Obligations and Rights.  The obligations of each Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any Transaction Document.  The decision of each Purchaser to purchase Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Purchaser independently of any other Purchaser and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company which may have been made or given by any other Purchaser or by any agent or employee of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser and none of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any other Purchaser (or any other Person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions.  Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.  Each Purchaser acknowledges that no other Purchaser has acted as agent for such Purchaser in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Purchaser will be acting as agent of such Purchaser in connection with monitoring its investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents.  Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any Proceeding for such purpose.   It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement is between the Company and a Purchaser, solely, and not between the Company and the Purchasers collectively and not between and among the Purchasers.
 
Section 3.20 Additional Collateral; Further Assurances.  The Company and the Guarantor shall execute any and all further documents, financing statements, agreements and instruments, and take all further action (including filing Uniform Commercial Code, United States Patent and Trademark Office and other financing statements not later than one (1) business day after the date hereof) that may be required under applicable law, or that the Purchasers may reasonably request, in order to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and in order to grant, preserve, protect and perfect the validity and first priority of the security interests created or intended to be created by the Notes.  From time to time, the Company shall, at its cost and expense and subject to the terms of the Notes, promptly secure the Notes by pledging or creating, or causing to be pledged or created, perfected security interests with respect to such of its assets and properties as the Purchasers shall designate (it being understood that it is the intent of the parties that, except as set forth in the Notes, the obligations pursuant to the Notes shall be secured by all the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries (including real and other properties acquired subsequent to the Closing Date)).  Such security

 
-28-
 

interests and Liens will be created under this Agreement, the Security Agreement and other security agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust and other instruments and documents in form and substance satisfactory to the Purchasers, and the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Purchasers all such instruments and documents as the Purchasers shall reasonably request to evidence compliance with this Section 3.18.  The Company agrees to provide such evidence as the Purchasers shall reasonably request as to the perfection and priority status of each such security interest and Lien.  In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company will give prompt notice to the Purchasers of the acquisition by it or any of its subsidiaries of any property (or any interest in property) having a value in excess of $100,000
 
Section 3.21 Best Efforts.  The Company shall exert its best efforts to satisfy the closing conditions set forth in Section 4.1 hereof or cause such closing conditions to be satisfied at or before the Closing.

ARTICLE 5
 
STOCK CERTIFICATE LEGEND
 
Section 5.1 Legend.  Each certificate representing the Notes Shares, the Warrants and Warrant Shares and if appropriate, securities issued upon conversion or exercise thereof, shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form (in addition to any legend required by applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws):
 
“THESE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE (THE “SECURITIES”) HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR THE COMPANY SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED.”
 
(a)           The restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 5.1 shall be in addition to, and not by way of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer contained in any other section of this Agreement. Whenever a certificate representing the Note Shares or the Warrant Shares is required to be issued to a Purchaser without a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Note Shares or the Warrant Shares (provided that a registration statement under the Securities Act providing for the resale of the Warrant Shares and Note Shares is then in effect), the Company may cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Note Shares or Warrant Shares to a Purchaser by crediting the account of such Purchaser or such Purchaser’s prime broker with the DTC through its DWAC system (to the extent not inconsistent with any provisions of this Agreement).
 
(b)           Certificates evidencing the Note Shares and the Warrant Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth in Section 5.1 hereof): (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act (the date such registration statement is declared effective, being referred to as the "Effective Date"), (ii) following any sale of such Note Shares or Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144, (iii) if such Note Shares or Warrant Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such Note Shares or Warrant Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to its transfer agent promptly after the Effective Date if required by the transfer agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder.  If all or any Note is converted or Warrant is exercised at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of the Note Shares or Warrant Shares, or if such Note Shares or Warrant Shares may be sold under Rule 144 and the Company is then in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144, or if such Note Shares or Warrant Shares may be sold under Rule 144 without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144 as to such Note Shares
 
 
 
 
 
or Warrant Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or if such legend is not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Commission) then such Note Shares or Warrant Shares shall be issued free of all legends.  The Company agrees that following the Effective Date or at such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 5.1, it will, no later than three Trading Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the Company or the transfer agent of a certificate representing Note Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend (such third Trading Day, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends.  The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the transfer agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Article 5.

(c)           Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, agrees with the Company that such Purchaser will sell any Securities pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if Securities are sold pursuant to a registration statement, they will be sold in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein, and acknowledges that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates representing Securities as set forth in this Article 5 is predicated upon the Company’s reliance upon this understanding.
 
ARTICLE 6
 
INDEMNIFICATION
 
Section 6.1 General Indemnity.  The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchasers (and their respective directors, officers, managers, partners, members, shareholders, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Purchasers as a result of any material breach of the material representations, warranties or covenants made by the Company herein. Each Purchaser severally but not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors, officers, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Company as a result of any breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by such Purchaser herein. The maximum aggregate liability of each Purchaser pursuant to its indemnification obligations under this Article 6 shall not exceed the portion of the Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser hereunder. In no event shall any “Indemnified Party” (as defined below) be entitled to recover consequential or punitive damages resulting from a breach or violation of this Agreement.
 
Section 6.2 Indemnification Procedure. Any party entitled to indemnification under this Article 6 (an “Indemnified Party”) will give written notice to the indemnifying party of any matters giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided, that the failure of any party entitled to indemnification hereunder to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Article 6 except to the extent that the indemnifying party is

 
-32-
 

actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any action, proceeding or claim is brought against an Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnification is sought hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, unless in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party a conflict of interest between it and the indemnifying party may exist with respect of such action, proceeding or claim, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. In the event that the indemnifying party advises an Indemnified Party that it will contest such a claim for indemnification hereunder, or fails, within thirty (30) days of receipt of any indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such person of its election to defend, settle or compromise, at its sole cost and expense, any action, proceeding or claim (or discontinues its defense at any time after it commences such defense), then the Indemnified Party may, at its option, defend, settle or otherwise compromise or pay such action or claim. In any event, unless and until the indemnifying party elects in writing to assume and does so assume the defense of any such claim, proceeding or action, the Indemnified Party’s costs and expenses arising out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, claim or proceeding shall be losses subject to indemnification hereunder. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. If the indemnifying party elects to defend any such action or claim, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in such defense with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent, provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement if the indemnifying party is advised of the settlement but fails to respond to the settlement within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notification. Notwithstanding anything in this Article 6 to the contrary, the indemnifying party shall not, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof which imposes any future obligation on the Indemnified Party or which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or similar rights of the Indemnified Party against the indemnifying party or others, and (b) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

No such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it applies to less than all of the holders of the Note Shares then outstanding. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents or holders of Note Shares, as the case may be.
