ARTICLE VII

INDEMNIFICATION

7.1 Indemnification. Except as otherwise provided in this Article VII, the Company (the “Indemnifying Party”) agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the Purchasers and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, subsidiaries, partners, members and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnified Party”) to the fullest extent permitted by law from and against any and all losses, claims, or written threats thereof (including, without limitation, any Claim by a third party), damages, expenses (including reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel incurred by the Indemnified Party in any action between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party or between the Indemnified Party and any third party

or otherwise) or other liabilities (collectively, “Losses”) resulting from or arising out of any breach of any representation or warranty, covenant or agreement by the Company in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or the matters set forth on Schedule 7.1 hereto. The amount of any payment to any Indemnified Party herewith in respect of any Loss shall be of sufficient amount to make such Indemnified Party whole for any diminution in value of the Purchased Shares, the Warrants, the Additional Warrants (if applicable) or the Underlying Shares to the extent such diminution in value is attributable to such breach but not in excess of the applicable Purchase Price for the affected Purchased Shares, Warrants, Additional Warrants (if applicable) or Underlying Shares plus any expenses incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with such transaction, except in the case of fraud or willful misrepresentation in which case there shall be no cap on Losses. In connection with the obligation of the Indemnifying Party to indemnify for expenses as set forth above, the Indemnifying Party shall, upon presentation of appropriate invoices containing reasonable detail, reimburse each Indemnified Party for all such expenses (including reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel incurred by the Indemnified Party in any action between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party or between the Indemnified Party and any third party) as they are incurred by such Indemnified Party.

7.2 Notification. Each Indemnified Party under this Article VII shall, promptly after the receipt of notice of the commencement of any Claim against such Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought from the Indemnifying Party under this Article VII, notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the commencement thereof. The omission of any Indemnified Party to so notify the Indemnifying Party of any such action shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which it may have to such Indemnified Party (a) other than pursuant to this Article VII or (b) under this Article VII unless, and only to the extent that, such omission results in the Indemnifying Party’s forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses. In case any such Claim 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 assume the defense thereof at its own expense, with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in its reasonable judgment; provided, however, that any Indemnified Party may retain separate counsel to participate in such defense at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any Claim in which both the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and an Indemnified Party, on the other hand, are, or are reasonably likely to become, a party, such Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to control its own defense of such Claim if, in the reasonable opinion of counsel to such Indemnified Party, either (x) one or more defenses are available to the Indemnified Party that are not available to the Indemnifying Party or (y) a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Party, on the other hand, that would make such separate representation advisable; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party (i) shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel to all Indemnified Parties and (ii) shall reimburse the Indemnified Parties for all of such fees and expenses of such counsel incurred in any action between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Parties or between the Indemnified Parties and any third party, as such expenses are incurred. The Indemnifying Party agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of a Majority in Interest, settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened Claim relating to the matters contemplated hereby (if any Indemnified Party is a party thereto or has been actually threatened to

be made a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liability arising or that may arise out of such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Claim effected against an Indemnified Party without its written consent. The rights accorded to an Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in addition to any rights that any Indemnified Party may have at common law, by separate agreement or otherwise; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing in this Article VII shall restrict or limit any rights that any Indemnified Party may have to seek equitable relief.

7.3 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Article VII from the Indemnifying Party is unavailable to an Indemnified Party hereunder in respect of any Losses referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions which resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative faults of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the Losses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.

For so long as RockPort and/or NGP continue(s) to beneficially own not less than the Minimum Ownership Percentage, upon the written request of RockPort or NGP (or in the case of the Independent Designee, both RockPort and NGP), the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Board of Directors to remove the RockPort Designee, the NGP Designee or the Independent Designee, as the case may be, from the Board of Directors (with or without cause), and (ii) in the event that a designee shall cease to serve as a director for any reason, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any vacancy resulting thereby to be filled by another designee designated by RockPort, NGP or RockPort and NGP, as the case may be.

(f) For so long as RockPort and/or NGP continue(s) to beneficially own not less than the Minimum Ownership Percentage, the Board of Directors shall have appointed at least one designee of RockPort or NGP to the corporate governance and nominating committee and the compensation committee of the Board of Directors; provided however, that if the Board of Directors determines based upon applicable regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Market (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors after consultation with legal counsel), that a Rockport designee or an NGP designee cannot serve as a member of such committee the Company shall permit such Rockport designee or Rockport Observer (as defined below) and such NGP designee or NGP Observer (as defined below), as applicable, to attend all meetings of such committees in a nonvoting capacity. In addition, a Rockport designee or Rockport Observer and an NGP designee or NGP Observer, as applicable, shall have the right to attend all meetings of the audit committee of the

Board of Directors in a nonvoting capacity. In connection therewith, the Company shall provide the Observers (as defined below) with copies of all notices, minutes, consents and other materials, financial or otherwise, which are provided to the members of such committee; provided, however, that the Company reserves the right to exclude such Observers from access to any material or meeting or portion thereof if the Company in good faith believes that such exclusion is necessary to preserve the attorney-client privilege.

(g) The Board of Directors shall establish and maintain the existence of a special committee of the Board of Directors (the “Search Committee”) consisting of four directors, two of whom shall be the RockPort Designee and the NGP Designee, with (i) the power to initiate searches for, and to recruit, retain and replace the chief executive officer of the Company and (ii) the ability to retain an executive search firm to manage any search for a chief executive officer initiated by the Search Committee; provided, that such committee in its sole discretion may elect to refer a decision on such matters to the Board of Directors.

(h) Effective as of the First Tranche Closing Date, each of RockPort and NGP shall be allowed one representative (the “RockPort Observer” and the “NGP Observer,” respectively, and together, the “Observers”) of its choice, to attend all meetings of the Board of Directors in a nonvoting capacity. In connection therewith, the Company shall provide the Observers with copies of all notices, minutes, consents and other materials, financial or otherwise, which the Company provides to its Board of Directors; provided, however, that the Company reserves the right to exclude such Observers from access to any material or meeting or portion thereof if the Company in good faith believes that such exclusion is necessary to preserve the attorney-client privilege. This right shall expire as to RockPort or NGP at such time that such entity no longer holds fifty percent (50%) of its Minimum Ownership Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Rockport shall not be entitled to exercise the observer rights set forth herein at any time that a Rockport Designee is then serving on the Board of Directors; and (ii) NGP shall not be entitled to exercise the observer rights set forth herein at any time that an NGP Designee is then serving on the Board of Directors.

(i) None of the parties hereto and no officer, director, stockholder, partner, employee or agent of any party makes any representation or warranty as to the fitness or competence of the nominee of any party hereunder to serve on the Board of Directors by virtue of such party’s execution of this Agreement or by the act of such party in voting for such nominee pursuant to this Agreement.

8.4 Nasdaq Listing. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the listing of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market, including, without limitation, (i) taking all actions reasonably related to maintaining Nasdaq Stock Market listing standards, including, but not limited to, the actions required pursuant to Section 8.2 and (ii) refraining from taking actions reasonably expected to cause the Company to not meet Nasdaq Stock Market listing standards. The Company shall provide the Purchasers copies of all correspondence between the Company and the Nasdaq Stock Market promptly upon receipt thereof. If required by the Nasdaq Stock Market, the Company shall apply to list the Common Stock on The Nasdaq Global Market promptly (but in no event later than fifteen (15) Business Days) upon becoming eligible to do so.

8.5 Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issue or delivery upon conversion of the Purchased Shares and upon exercise of the Warrants and the Additional Warrants, as provided in the Certificate of Designation, the Warrants and the Additional Warrants, the maximum number of Underlying Shares that may be issuable or deliverable upon such conversion or exercise. Such Underlying Shares are duly authorized and, when issued or delivered in accordance with the Certificate of Designation, the Warrants and the Additional Warrants, shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. The Company shall issue such Underlying Shares in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Designation, the Warrants and the Additional Warrants, and otherwise comply with the terms hereof and thereof.

8.6 Restrictions on Public Sale. The Company agrees (i) not to effect any public offering or distribution of any Equity Securities of the Company, and (ii) not to register any shares of Equity Securities of the Company (except pursuant to registration on Form S-8 or any successor thereto), in each case, during the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1 or 90 days after the effective date of the shelf registration statement to be filed in accordance with Article III of the Registration Rights Agreement, except as part of such registration.

8.7 Notification of Certain Matters. The Company shall give prompt notice to the Purchasers of: (i) the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event, the occurrence or non-occurrence of which is likely to cause any representation or warranty of the Company contained in this Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate at or prior to the Second Tranche Closing Date, (ii) any failure of the Company to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it hereunder and (iii) any communication, whether written or oral, by or on behalf of the Company, with the holders of the Existing Notes; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 8.7 shall not (a) limit or otherwise affect any remedies available to the party receiving such notice or (b) constitute an acknowledgment or admission of a breach of this Agreement. No disclosure by the Company pursuant to this Section 8.7 shall be deemed to amend or supplement the Company Disclosure Schedule or prevent or cure any misrepresentations, breach of warranty or breach of covenant.

8.8 Additional Warrant Triggering Event. At any time and from time to time after the date of this Agreement, upon the exercise of any Outstanding Warrants (an “Additional Warrant Triggering Event”), the Company shall issue to the Purchasers Additional Warrants exercisable for that number of Additional Warrant Shares equal to one-half (and rounding up with respect to any fractional shares) of the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of such Outstanding Warrant(s). The number of Additional Warrant Shares shall be allocated pro rata among the Purchasers in accordance with the ratio of the number of Underlying Preferred Shares held by such Purchaser on the date of the Additional Warrant Triggering Event to the total number of Underlying Preferred Shares held by all Purchasers on the date of the Additional Warrant Triggering Event. The exercise price of each Additional Warrant Share shall be $1.25. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to issue Additional Warrants to the Purchasers until the Second Tranche Closing and thereafter.

8.9 Elimination of Series A Preferred Stock. Promptly following the First Tranche Closing, the Company shall take appropriate action to the reasonable satisfaction of the Purchasers, to retire or to file a certificate of elimination with respect to the Company’s Series A preferred stock.

ARTICLE IX

PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS

9.1 Subsequent Offerings. Following the First Tranche Closing, upon the consummation of the issuance and sale by the Company of any New Securities (a “Subsequent Offering”), the Company shall grant each Purchaser the right to purchase (the “Make-up Purchase”) all or some of that number of New Securities required for the Purchaser to, after giving effect to the Make-up Purchase, maintain its Percentage of Ownership (as defined below) interest in the Company, at the price and upon the same terms and conditions as such Subsequent Offering. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to apportion the right to purchase New Securities among itself and its general partners, limited partners, members and Affiliates in such proportions as it deems appropriate.

9.2 Procedure. Upon the consummation of a Subsequent Offering, the Company shall promptly give each Purchaser written notice of the consummation of such Subsequent Offering describing the New Securities, the price and the terms and conditions upon which the Company issued the same and the amount of New Securities that such Purchaser has the right to purchase. Each Purchaser shall have thirty (30) days from the giving of such notice to agree to purchase such New Securities by giving written notice to the Company (the “Purchase Notice”) and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased. The Company and such Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly consummate the sale of such New Securities upon the receipt by the Company of the Purchase Notice.

9.3 Nasdaq Letter. Prior to the consummation of the Make-up Purchase, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain an interpretive letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market (a “Nasdaq Letter”) on the issue of whether such sale to the Purchasers requires the approval of the stockholders of the Company, unless counsel for the Company determines such Nasdaq Letter to be unnecessary in order to consummate the Make-up Purchase. If, pursuant to the Nasdaq Letter, approval of the stockholders of the Company is recommended, the Company shall cause a meeting of its stockholders (the “Additional Stockholders Meeting”) to be duly called and held as soon as reasonably practicable for the purpose of voting on the approval of the Make-up Purchase. At the Additional Stockholders Meeting, the Board of Directors shall recommend approval by the Company’s stockholders of the Make-up Purchase (the “Additional Stockholder Approval”). In connection with the Additional Stockholders Meeting, the Company will (i) promptly, but in no event more than 30 days, following the date hereof, prepare and file with the SEC, use its commercially reasonable efforts to have cleared by the SEC and thereafter mail to its stockholders as promptly as practicable the proxy or information statement of the Company to be filed with the SEC in connection with the Make-up Purchase and all other proxy materials for such meeting, (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Additional Stockholder Approval and (iii) otherwise comply with all legal requirements applicable to the Additional Stockholders Meeting.

9.4 Termination; Transfer or Assignment of Rights. The preemptive rights provided in this Article IX shall terminate on the second anniversary of the date of the Stockholders Meeting. The preemptive rights provided in this Article IX may be transferred or assigned to any Affiliate of the Purchasers or to any transferee or assignee of Purchased Shares that are convertible into not less than 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock.

9.5 Defined Terms. For the purposes of this Article IX:

(a) “Percentage of Ownership” means the number, expressed as a percentage, equal to the number of shares of Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents held by the Purchaser immediately prior to the issuance of the New Securities in such Subsequent Offering divided by the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents immediately prior to such issuance.

(b) “New Securities” means, whether or not authorized on the date hereof, any Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalent, Preferred Stock or any other security of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; provided, however, that “New Securities” do not include the following:

(i) any securities that are issued or granted, to officers, directors and employees of, or consultants or advisors to, the Company pursuant to a stock grant, employee restricted stock purchase agreement, option plan or purchase plan or other stock incentive program or otherwise as part of their compensation arrangement, where such issuance and grants are approved by the Board of Directors, or any securities issued in respect of the exercise of any such securities;

(ii) any securities issued in connection with any stock split, stock dividend, reclassification, reorganization or similar event by the Company;

(iii) any securities issued or to be issued pursuant to an acquisition or merger of another company that is approved by the Board of Directors (not primarily for the purpose of obtaining cash);

(iv) any securities issued upon the conversion of convertible securities or upon the exercise of rights, options or warrants or as dividends on the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, in each case outstanding as of the First Tranche Closing Date, provided that such exercise, conversion or dividend occurs in accordance with the terms thereof without amendment or modification;

(v) securities issued in connection with a bona fide joint venture, strategic partnership or strategic alliance approved by the Board of Directors, the primary purpose of which is not to raise capital;

(vi) any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents issued upon exercise or conversion of the Preferred Stock, the Warrants or the Additional Warrants; and

(vii) any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents issued pursuant to a bona fide firm commitment underwritten public offering with a nationally recognized underwriter in an aggregate offering amount greater than $20,000,000.

ARTICLE X

TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT

10.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated on (or at such earlier time as provided below) or prior to (or such later time as provided below) the Outside Date:

(a) by mutual written consent of the Company and each of the Purchasers;

(b) at the election of the Company or both of the Purchasers by written notice to the other parties, if (i) any Governmental Authority shall have enacted, entered, promulgated, issued or enforced a final statute, rule, regulation, executive order, decree, ruling or injunction or taken any other final action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and such order, decree, ruling or other action is or shall have become final and nonappealable, or (ii) the Second Tranche Closing Date shall not have occurred on or before the Outside Date; provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this clause (ii) shall not be available to any party hereto whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Second Tranche Closing Date to occur on or before the Outside Date;

If this Agreement so terminates, it shall become null and void and have no further force or effect, except as provided in Section 10.2.

10.2 Survival. If this Agreement is terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby are not consummated as described above, this Agreement shall become void and of no further force and effect, except for the provisions of Article I, this Section 10.2, Section 10.3, Section 11.7, Section 11.11 and Section 11.12; provided, however, that, except for the payment of the Alternative Transaction Fee in accordance with Section 10.3 and the payment of fees and expenses pursuant to Section 11.12, none of the parties hereto shall have any liability in respect of a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(a) or Section 10.1(b); and provided, further, that none of the parties hereto shall have any liability for speculative, indirect, unforeseeable or consequential damages or lost profits resulting from any legal action relating to any termination of this Agreement.

10.3 Alternative Transaction Fee. The Company agrees that, from the date hereof through the Second Tranche Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement, whichever occurs first, it will not initiate, solicit, encourage, discuss, negotiate or accept any offers from any third party or indicate any interest to any third party with respect to (i) the sale of capital stock of the Company, (ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, (iii) any merger or consolidation of the Company with any other person or (iv) any material financing transaction (each, an “Alternative Transaction”); provided, however, that the Company may, if the Board of Directors of

the Company determines in good faith, based upon the advice of its outside legal counsel, that the failure to do so would be reasonably likely to result in a breach of its fiduciary duties under applicable law, participate in discussions regarding any such Alternative Transaction and furnish information with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement. The Company agrees to notify the Purchasers promptly if any third party contacts the Company regarding any Alternative Transaction and to provide to the Purchasers such information with respect thereto as the Purchasers request. In the event that (i) (x) the Company terminates this Agreement for any reason, including the failure to obtain Stockholder Approval, or (y) any of the conditions to the obligations of the Purchasers set forth in Article V shall not be fulfilled prior to the Outside Date, and (ii) the Company enters into any binding or non-binding term sheet, letter of intent or agreement relating to an Alternative Transaction on or prior to July 19, 2008, then, at the election of RockPort, either (A) the Company shall pay an alternative transaction fee equal to, at the Company’s option, either $2,000,000 if paid in shares of Common Stock (based on the lower of the closing price of the Common Stock on the trading date preceding the Payment Date or the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for the ten (10) Trading Days prior to the Payment Date) or $1,500,000 if paid in cash (in either case, the “Alternative Transaction Fee”) on the closing date of the Alternative Transaction (the “Payment Date”) or (B) the Company shall use its best efforts to provide the Purchasers with the opportunity to invest up to fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate amount being invested and on the same terms and conditions as the other investors or participants in such Alternative Transaction (any securities of the Company issued in connection therewith, the “Alternative Transaction Securities”); provided that if the Purchasers elect to invest in the Alternative Transaction in accordance with clause (B) of this sentence, but do not have the opportunity to so invest, the Purchasers shall be paid the Alternative Transaction Fee on the Payment Date. Such Alternative Transaction Fee shall be paid to the Purchasers pro rata based on their respective commitments set forth on Exhibit A hereto. The Company also shall be obligated to reimburse the Purchasers for their out-of-pocket fees and expenses as provided in Section 11.12. From and after the Payment Date, to the extent that the Alternative Transaction Fee has not been paid, the Company shall continue to be obligated to immediately pay the Alternative Transaction Fee and such payment will be made together with interest at 10% annual rate compounded daily beginning on the Payment Date and ending on the date of payment. Payments must be made by wire transfer of cash or other immediately available funds.
