Commencing six (6) months after the date of this Agreement, if (i) the VWAP of the Common Stock on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. exceeds the greater of (A) $1.00, or (B) 250% of the Conversion Price of the Note in effect for twenty (20) consecutive Trading Days (the "Measurement Period"); (ii) the trading volume of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg, L.P. for the principal Trading Market during the Measurement Period exceeds 1,000,000 shares, (iii) all of the Equity Conditions are in effect during each day of the Measurement Period through the Call Date (as defined below), and (iv) all of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Option Notes have been included in an effective Registration Statement allowing the public resale of such underlying Common Stock pursuant to a prospectus that has been current during the entire Measurement Period, then within ten (10) days of the occurrence of all of the above conditions, the Company may accelerate the Termination Date to thirty (30) calendar days after delivery of a Call Notice to Purchaser, during which period Purchaser may exercise the Option. The Company shall deliver to the Purchaser a written notice (a "Call Notice") of any acceleration of the Termination Date within ten (10) calendar days following the last day of the Measurement Period during which all of the above conditions have been satisfied.

The indemnification required by this Section shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or are incurred. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to any cause of action or similar right of any Purchaser Party against the Company or others and any liabilities the Company may be subject to pursuant to law.

No provision of this Agreement may be waived, modified, supplemented or amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Company and the Purchasers or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such waived provision is sought. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.
11. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Purchaser (other than by merger).

13. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of laws and principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. 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 in the federal courts located in the state of New York. Both parties and the individuals executing this Agreement and other agreements on behalf of the parties agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such courts and waive trial by jury. The prevailing party (which shall be the party which receives an award most closely resembling the remedy or action sought) 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.
14. Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof will in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision.
15. Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Purchasers and the Company will be entitled to specific performance under this Agreement. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations contained in this Agreement and hereby agree to waive and not to assert in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
16. Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other party, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a ".pdf" format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or ".pdf" signature page were an original thereof.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company and the undersigned Purchasers have caused this
Agreement to be executed as of the date first written above.
