The

as
follows:
4.1 Subsidiaries;
Organization.
All of
the subsidiaries of the Company (the “Subsidiaries”) are set forth on
Schedule 4.1(a). Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries is duly organized
and validly existing and is in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction
of its organization. Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries has full power
and
authority to own, operate and occupy its properties and to conduct its business
as presently conducted and as described in Company’s SEC Documents (as defined
in paragraph 4.4), and is registered or qualified to do business and is in
good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to be so qualified
would
have a material adverse effect upon the business, condition (financial or
otherwise), business prospects, properties or operations of the Company and
its
Subsidiaries, considered as one enterprise (“Material Adverse Effect”), and 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 Due
Authorization and Valid Issuance.
The
Company has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform
its obligations under the Purchase Agreement, the Third Amendment, the Notes
and
the Registration Rights Agreement referred to in Section 7.1 (collectively,
the
“Transaction Documents”), and the Agreements have been duly authorized and
validly executed and delivered by the Company and constitute legal, valid and
binding agreements of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance
with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or
similar laws affecting creditors’ and contracting parties’ rights generally and
except as enforceability may be subject to general principles of equity
(regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in
equity or at law).
4.3 Non-Contravention.
The
execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Company, the issuance
and sale of the Preferred Shares to be sold by the
A-3
Company
under the Agreements, the fulfillment of the terms of the Agreements by the
Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby will not (A) conflict with or constitute a violation of,
or default or require notice or consent (with the passage of time or otherwise)
under (i) any material bond, debenture, note or other evidence of
indebtedness, or under any material lease, contract, indenture, mortgage, deed
of trust, loan agreement, joint venture or other agreement or instrument to
which the Company or any of the Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company
or any of the Subsidiaries or their respective properties are bound,
(ii) the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of the Company
or any of the Subsidiaries, or (iii) any material law, administrative
regulation, ordinance or order of any court or governmental agency, arbitration
panel or authority applicable to the Company or any of the Subsidiaries or
their
respective properties, or (B) result in the creation or imposition of any
lien, encumbrance, claim, security interest or restriction whatsoever upon
any
of the material properties or assets of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries
or an acceleration of indebtedness pursuant to any obligation, agreement or
condition contained in any material bond, debenture, note or any other evidence
of indebtedness or any material indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or any other
agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of the Subsidiaries is
a
party or by which any of them is bound or to which any of the property or assets
of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries is subject. No consent, approval,
authorization or other order of, or registration, qualification or filing with,
any regulatory body, administrative agency, or other governmental body in the
United States is required for the execution and delivery of the Transaction
Documents by the Company and the valid issuance and sale of the Preferred Shares
to be sold by the Company pursuant to the Agreements, other than such as have
been made or obtained, and except for any post-closing securities filings or
notifications required to be made under federal or state securities
laws.
4.4 Reporting
Status.
The
Company has filed in a timely manner all documents that the Company was required
to file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
Act”) during the 12 months preceding the date of this Agreement, including all
certifications and statements required by (x) 13a-14 or 15d-14 under the
Exchange Act or (y) 18 USC 1350 (Section 906 of Sarbanes Oxley Act)
(such filings, including all exhibits, supplements and amendments thereto,
the
“SEC Documents”). The SEC Documents and all other materials filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) during such period complied in
all material respects with the SEC’s requirements as of their respective filing
dates, and the information contained therein as of the dates thereof did not
contain an 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 in
light of the circumstances under which they were made not
misleading.
4.5 Capitalization.
The
capitalization of the Company is as set forth on Schedule 4.5. All
outstanding shares are duly authorized, validly issued and are fully paid and
nonassessable. None of the outstanding shares has been offered or issued in
violation of federal or state securities laws, or in violation of or subject
to
any preemptive rights or other rights to subscribe for or purchase securities.
The Company has not issued any capital stock since December 31, 2005 other
than
pursuant to (i) employee benefit plans disclosed in the SEC Documents, or
(ii) outstanding warrants, options or other securities disclosed in the SEC
Documents. The Preferred Shares to be issued on the date hereof, when issued
in
compliance with the provisions of the Agreements, including without limitation
payment in full of the
A-4
consideration
therefor, will be duly authorized, and the Preferred Shares and the shares
of
the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares (the
“Conversion Shares”) when issued will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable, and will not subject the holder to any liability as a result
of
being a holder. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.5, there are no outstanding
rights (including, without limitation, preemptive rights), warrants or options
to acquire, or instruments convertible into or exchangeable for, any unissued
shares of capital stock or other equity interest in the Company or the
Subsidiaries, or any contract, commitment, agreement, understanding or
arrangement of any kind to which the Company is a party or of which the Company
has knowledge and relating to the issuance or sale of any capital stock of
the
Company or the Subsidiaries, any such convertible or exchangeable securities
or
any such rights, warrants or options. Without limiting the foregoing, no
preemptive right, co-sale right, right of first refusal, registration right
(except as set forth herein), or other similar right exists with respect to
the
Preferred Shares or the Company’s Common Stock to be issued and sold by the
Company or the issuance and sale thereof. No further approval or authorization
of any stockholder, the Board of Directors of the Company or others is required
for the issuance and sale of the Preferred Shares or the Company’s Common Stock
by the Company. There are no stockholders’ agreements, voting agreements or
other similar agreements with respect to the Preferred Shares or the Company’s
Common Stock to which the Company is a party or, to the knowledge of the
Company, between or among any of the Company’s stockholders. Except as set forth
on Schedule 4.5, no holder of any of the securities of the Company has any
rights (“demand,” “piggyback” or otherwise) to have such securities registered
by reason of the intention to file, filing or effectiveness of a Registration
Statement (as defined in Section 7.1 hereof). The Company has duly reserved
sufficient shares of Common Stock for issuance upon conversion of the Preferred
Shares.
4.6 Legal
Proceedings.
There
is no material legal or governmental proceeding pending or, to the knowledge
of
the Company, threatened to which the Company or any of the Subsidiaries is
or
may be a party or of which the business or property of the Company or any of
the
Subsidiaries is subject. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or
investigation before or by any court, public board or body (including, without
limitation, the SEC) pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened
against or affecting the Company or the Subsidiaries or any of their respective
business or properties, wherein an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding
could
adversely affect the validity or enforceability of, or the authority or ability
of the Company to perform its obligations under the Agreements.
4.7 No
Violations.
Neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation of its charter, bylaws, or other
organizational document, or in violation of any material law, administrative
regulation, ordinance or order of any court or governmental agency, arbitration
panel or authority applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary, or in default
or
violation (and there exists no condition that, with the passage of time or
otherwise, would constitute a default or violation) in any respect in the
performance of any material bond, debenture, note or any other evidence of
indebtedness in any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or any other material
agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party or
by
which the Company or any Subsidiary is bound or by which the properties of
the
Company or any Subsidiary are bound. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Company is not in violation of any of the rules, regulations
or
requirements of the OTCBB and has no knowledge of
A-5
any
facts
or circumstances which would reasonably lead to suspension of the Common Stock
by the OTCBB in the foreseeable future.

Permits, Etc. The
Company and the Subsidiaries possess all necessary franchises, licenses,
certificates and other authorizations from any foreign, federal, state or local
government or governmental agency, department, or body that are currently

to have a Material Adverse Effect.
4.9 Intellectual
Property.
The
Company and the Subsidiaries own or possess sufficient rights to use all
patents, patent rights, trademarks, copyrights, licenses, inventions, trade
secrets, trade names and know-how (collectively, “Intellectual Property”) that
are necessary for the conduct of their respective businesses as now conducted.
Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of, or has any
knowledge of, any infringement of asserted rights of a third party with respect
to any Intellectual Property, and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has
any
knowledge of any infringement by a third party with respect to any Intellectual
Property of the Company or any Subsidiary.
4.10 Financial
Statements.
The
consolidated financial statements of the Company and the related notes contained
in the SEC Documents present fairly, in accordance with the rules and
regulations of the SEC, the consolidated financial position of the Company
as of
the dates indicated, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the
periods therein specified. Such financial statements (including the related
notes) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods therein
specified, except as set forth in the financial statements (and the related
notes).
4.11 No
Material Adverse Change.
Since
December 31, 2005, there has not been (i) any material adverse change in
the financial condition or earnings of the Company and the Subsidiaries taken
as
a whole, nor has any material adverse event occurred with respect to the Company
or the Subsidiaries, (ii) any obligation, direct or contingent, that is
material to the Company and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole, incurred by
the
Company or any Subsidiary, except obligations incurred in the ordinary course
of
business, (iii) any dividend or distribution of any kind declared, paid or
made on the capital stock of the Company, or (iv) any loss or damage
(whether or not insured) to the physical property of the Company or any
Subsidiary which has been sustained which has a material adverse effect on
the
condition (financial or otherwise), earnings, operations, business or business
prospects of the Company and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole. Since December
31, 2005, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has (a) sold, assigned,
transferred, abandoned, mortgaged, pledged or subjected to lien any of its
material properties, tangible or intangible, or rights under any material
contract, permit, license, franchise or other agreement or (b) waived or
cancelled any material indebtedness or other material obligations owed to the
Company or such Subsidiary. The occurrence of any of the events described in
clauses (i) through (iv) and clauses (a) and (b) of this paragraph is
referred to as a “Material Adverse Change.”
4.12 No
Manipulation of Securities.
The
Company has not taken and will not, in violation of applicable law take, any
action designed to or that might reasonably be expected
A-6
to
cause
or result in stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Common Stock
to
facilitate the sale or resale of the Preferred Shares.
4.13 OCTBB
Status.
The
Common Stock is traded on the OTCBB. The Company has no reason to believe that
the Common Stock will be ineligible for quotation on the OTCBB.
4.14 Insurance.
The
Company and the Subsidiaries maintain and will continue to maintain insurance
against loss or damage by fire or other casualty and such other insurance,
including, but not limited to, product liability insurance, in such amounts
and
covering such risks as is reasonably adequate consistent with industry practice
for the conduct of their respective businesses and the value of their respective
properties.
4.15 Tax
Matters.
The
Company and the Subsidiaries have filed all material federal, state, local
and
foreign income and franchise and other tax returns required to be filed by
them
in any jurisdiction to which they are subject, and have paid or accrued all
taxes due in accordance therewith; and no tax deficiency has been determined
adversely to the Company or any Subsidiary which has had (nor does the Company
or the Subsidiaries have any knowledge of any tax deficiency which, if
determined adversely to the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, would reasonably
be expected to have) a Material Adverse Effect.
4.16 Investment
Company.
The
Company is not an “investment company” within the meaning of such term under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 and the rules and regulations of the SEC
thereunder.
4.17 No
Registration.
No form
of general solicitation or general advertising was used by the Company or,
to
the best of its knowledge, any other Person acting on behalf of the Company,
in
respect of the Preferred Shares or in connection with the offer and sale of
the
Preferred Shares. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties
made by, and compliance with the covenants of, (i) the Investors in
Section 5 of the Terms and Conditions to each of the Agreements, no
registration of the Preferred Shares under the Securities Act is required in
connection with the offer and sale of the Preferred Shares by the Company to
the
Investors as contemplated by the Agreements.
4.18 Internal
Accounting Controls.
The
Company and the Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls
sufficient, in the judgment of the Company’s board of directors, to provide
reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with
management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain
asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in
accordance with management’s general or specific authorization and (iv) the
recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at
reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any
differences. The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures
(as
defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) for the Company and
designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material
information relating to the Company, is made known to the certifying officers
by
others within those entities, particularly during the period in which the
Company’s Form 10-KSB or
A-7
10-QSB,
as the case may be, is being prepared. The Company’s certifying officers have
evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s controls and procedures as of the
end of the period covered by the most recently filed Form 10-KSB (such
date, the “Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its most recently filed
Form 10-KSB the conclusions of the certifying officers about the
effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their
evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have
been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls (as such term is
defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) that has affected, or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial
reporting.
4.19 Form D.
Subject
to the continuing accuracy of the representations and warranties made by, and
compliance with the covenants of, the Investors in Section 5 of the Terms
and Conditions to each of the Agreements the Company agrees to file one or
more
Form D with respect to the Preferred Shares on a timely basis as required
under Regulation D under the Securities Act to claim the exemption provided
by Rule 506 of Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to the
Investors and their counsel promptly after such filing.
4.20 Integration
and Future Financings
(a) The
Company shall not, and shall use its best efforts to ensure that no affiliate
of
the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise
negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the
Securities Act) that would be integrated with the Offering in a manner that
would require the registration of the issuance of the Preferred Shares under
the
Securities Act, or cause the sale of the Preferred Shares to the Investors
to be
integrated with prior offerings by the Company.
4.21 Use
of
Proceeds.
The
Company will use the net proceeds from the sale of the Preferred Shares for
working capital and general corporate purposes.
4.22 No
Undisclosed Events, Liabilities, Developments or Circumstances.
No
event, liability, development, circumstance or transaction has occurred or
exists, with respect to the Company or any Subsidiary or their respective
business, properties, prospects, operations or financial condition, that would
be required to be disclosed by the Company under applicable securities laws
(including pursuant to the anti-fraud provisions thereof) on a registration
statement on Form SB-2 filed with the SEC relating to an issuance and sale
by the Company of its Common Stock and which has not been publicly
announced.
4.23 Employee
Relations.
Neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary is a party to any collective bargaining agreement
or employs any member of a union. The Company and its Subsidiaries believe
that
their relations with their employees are good. No executive officer of the
Company (as defined in Rule 501(f) under the Securities Act) has notified
the Company that such officer intends to leave the Company or otherwise
terminate such officer’s employment with the Company. No executive officer of
the Company, to the knowledge of the Company, is, or is now expected to be,
in
violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality,
disclosure or proprietary information agreement, non-competition agreement,
or
any other contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant, and, to the
knowledge of the Company, the continued employment of each such executive
officer does not subject the
A-8
Company
or any Subsidiary to any material liability with respect to any of the foregoing
matters. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all federal,
state, local and foreign laws and regulations respecting employment and
employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours,
except where failure to be in compliance could not, either individually or
in
the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.
4.24 Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx
Act.
The
Company is in compliance with any and all applicable requirements of the
Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 that are effective as of the date hereof, and any
and

indirectly, offer, sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of (or solicit

except that the Investor may pledge the Preferred Shares in connection with
a
bona fide margin account or other loan or financing; (iv) the Investor and
the Investor’s representatives, if any, have been solely responsible for the

terms of the investment; and (v) the Investor has, in connection with its
decision to purchase the Preferred Shares, relied only upon the SEC Documents
and the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein. The

and binding obligation of the Investor enforceable against the Investor in
accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting

enforceability may be subject to general principles of equity (regardless of
whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at
law).
5.4 The
Investor understands that nothing in the SEC Documents, this Agreement or any
other materials presented to the Investor in connection with the purchase and
sale of the Preferred Shares constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. The
Investor has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its
sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its
purchase of the Preferred Shares.

financing (but subject to the provisions of (c) below), and only upon such
a
request by such Purchaser, the Company shall promptly, but no later than two
business days after such request, deliver a notice that describes such details
(a “Subsequent
Financing Notice”)

Investor. The Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail
the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of proceeds intended
to be raised thereunder, the person(s) if any, with whom such Subsequent
Financing is proposed to be effected, and attached to which shall be a term
sheet or similar document relating thereto.

the
Investor desires to participate in such Subsequent Financing, the Investor
must
provide written notice to the Company by not later than 5:30 p.m. (Los Angeles

willing, and available for investment on the terms set forth in the Subsequent
Financing Notice. If the Company receives no notice from the Investor as of
10th
calendar day after the Investor receives the Pre-Notice, the Investor shall
be
deemed to have notified the Company that it does not elect to participate and
the Company may effect such Subsequent Financing on the terms set forth in
the
Subsequent Financing Notice.
(d) The
Company must provide the Investor with a second Subsequent Financing Notice,
and
the Investor will again have the right of participation set forth above

set forth in such Subsequent Financing Notice within 90 days after the date

right shall be conditioned upon the Investor entering into the same documents
agreed to by the third party investors in the Subsequent Financing.

the period that the Investor holds Preferred Shares, the Investor shall have

hereby acknowledges that no Investor shall be in possession of any material
nonpublic information received from the Company or any of its respective

as its special counsel in connection herewith. Each Investor acknowledges that
Xxxxxxxx is representing only Frontera Group, LLC though the other Investors
may
receive some benefit from its services, that there is no attorney-client
