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 the continued employment
of each such executive officer does not subject the Company to any liability
with respect to any of the foregoing matters.

generation, manufacture, transportation, handling or treatment of toxic wastes,
hazardous wastes or hazardous substances by the Company (or, to the knowledge of

the Agreement on materially equivalent terms. 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 this Agreement or the Warrant unless the same consideration
is also offered to all of the parties to the Agreements. For clarification
purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted to each Purchaser
by the Company and negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and is intended to
treat for the Company the Purchasers as a class and shall not in any way be
construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to the
purchase, disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise.

under Section 7.3); (iii) the Purchaser will not, directly or indirectly, offer,
sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of (or solicit any offers to buy,
purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge of) any of the Securities, nor
will the Purchaser engage in any short sale that results in a disposition of any
of the Securities by the Purchaser, except in compliance with the Securities Act
and the Rules and Regulations and any applicable state securities laws; (iv) the
Purchaser has completed or caused to be completed the Registration Statement
Questionnaire attached hereto as part of Appendix I, for use in preparation of
the Registration Statement, and the answers thereto are true and correct as of
the date hereof and will be true and correct as of the effective date of the
Registration Statement and the Purchaser will notify the Company immediately of
any material change in any such information provided in the Registration
Statement Questionnaire until such time as the Purchaser has sold all of its
Shares and Warrant Shares or until the Company is no longer required to keep the
Registration Statement effective; (v) the Purchaser has, in connection with its
decision to purchase the Securities set forth in Section 2 above, relied solely

the Purchaser is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of

agrees to notify the Company immediately of any change in any of the foregoing
information until such time as the Purchaser has sold all of its Shares and
Warrant Shares or the Company is no longer required to keep the Registration
Statement effective.
11
(b) The Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered
and sold to it in reliance upon specific exemptions from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, the Rules and Regulations and state
securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of,
and the Purchaser's compliance with, the representations, warranties,
agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Purchaser set forth herein
in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of
the Purchaser to acquire the Securities.
(c) For the benefit of the Company, the Purchaser previously agreed
orally or in writing with the Placement Agent to keep confidential all
information concerning this private placement. The Purchaser understands that
the information contained in the Private Placement Memorandum is strictly
confidential and proprietary to the Company and has been prepared from the
Company's publicly available documents and other information and is being
submitted to the Purchaser solely for such Purchaser's confidential use. The
Purchaser agrees to use the information contained in the Private Placement
Memorandum for the sole purpose of evaluating a possible investment in the
Securities and the Purchaser hereby acknowledges that it is prohibited from
reproducing or distributing the Private Placement Memorandum, this Agreement, or
any other offering materials or other information provided by the Company in
connection with the Purchaser's consideration of its investment in the Company,
in whole or in part, or divulging or discussing any of their contents, except to
its financial, investment or legal advisors in connection with its proposed
investment in the Securities. Further, the Purchaser understands that the
existence and nature of all conversations and presentations, if any, regarding
the Company and this offering must be kept strictly confidential. The Purchaser
understands that the federal securities laws impose restrictions on trading
based on information regarding this offering. In addition, the Purchaser hereby
acknowledges that unauthorized disclosure of information regarding this offering
may result in a violation of Regulation FD. This obligation will terminate upon

Report on Form 8-K describing this offering. In addition to the above, the
Purchaser shall maintain in confidence the receipt and content of any notice of
a Suspension (as defined in Section 5(h) below). The foregoing agreements shall
not apply to any information that is or becomes publicly available through no
fault of the Purchaser, or that the Purchaser is legally required to disclose;
provided, however, that if the Purchaser is requested or ordered to disclose any
such information pursuant to any court or other government order or any other
applicable legal procedure, it shall provide the Company with prompt notice of
any such request or order in time sufficient to enable the Company to seek an
appropriate protective order.
(d) The Purchaser understands that its investment in the Securities
involves a significant degree of risk, including a risk of total loss of the
Purchaser's investment, and the Purchaser has full cognizance of and understands
all of the risk factors related to the Purchaser's purchase of the Securities,
including, but not limited to, those set forth under the caption "Risk Factors"
in the Private Placement Memorandum. The Purchaser understands that the market
price of the Common Stock has been volatile and that no representation is being
made as to the future value of the Common Stock. The Purchaser has the knowledge
and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating
the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities and has the ability to
bear the economic risks of an investment in the Securities.
12
(e) The Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state
agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed upon or made
any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities.
(f) The Purchaser understands that, (i) at all times the Warrants
and (ii) until such time as the Registration Statement has been declared
effective and the Shares and the Warrant Shares may be sold pursuant to
subsection (h) below or pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act without
any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can
then be immediately sold, the Securities and the Warrant Shares will bear a
restrictive legend in substantially the following form:
"The securities evidenced by this certificate have
not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the securities
laws of any state or other jurisdiction. The Shares
may not be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise
transferred except (1) pursuant to an exemption from
registration under the Securities Act or (2) pursuant
to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act, in each case in accordance with all
applicable securities laws of the states and other
jurisdictions, and in the case of a transaction
exempt from registration, unless the Company has
received an opinion of counsel reasonably
satisfactory to it that such transaction does not
require registration under the Securities Act and
such other applicable laws."
(g) The Purchaser's principal executive offices are in the
jurisdiction set forth immediately below the Purchaser's name on the signature
pages hereto.
(h) The Purchaser hereby covenants with the Company not to make any
sale of the Shares or the Warrant Shares under the Registration Statement
without complying with the provisions of this Agreement and without effectively
causing the prospectus delivery requirement under the Securities Act to be
satisfied, and the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that such Shares and
Warrant Shares are not transferable on the books of the Company without
registration unless the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably
satisfactory to it that such transaction does not require registration under the
Securities Act and such other applicable laws or the certificate submitted to
the transfer agent evidencing the Shares or the Warrant Shares is accompanied by
a separate Purchaser's Certificate of Subsequent Sale: (i) in the form of
Appendix II hereto, (ii) executed by an officer of, or other authorized person
designated by, the Purchaser, and (iii) to the effect that (A) the Shares or the
Warrant Shares have been sold in accordance with the Registration Statement, the
Securities Act and any applicable state securities or blue sky laws and (B) the
requirement of delivering a current prospectus has been satisfied. The Purchaser
will notify the Company promptly after the sale of all of its Shares and Warrant
Shares. The Purchaser acknowledges that there may occasionally be times when the
Company must suspend the use of the Prospectus forming a part of the
Registration Statement (a "Suspension") until such time as an amendment to the
Registration Statement has been filed by the Company and declared effective by
the Commission, or until such time as the Company has filed an appropriate
13
report with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act. The Purchaser hereby
covenants that it will not sell any Shares or Warrant Shares pursuant to said
Prospectus during the period commencing at the time at which the Company gives
the Purchaser written notice of the Suspension of the use of said Prospectus and
ending at the time the Company gives the Purchaser written notice that the
Purchaser may thereafter effect sales pursuant to said Prospectus.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company agrees that no Suspension shall be
for a period of longer than 30 consecutive days, and no Suspension shall be for
a period of an aggregate in any 365-day period of longer than 45 days. In the
event that a Suspension is for a period of longer than 30 consecutive days or
for a period of an aggregate in any 365-day period of longer than 60 days, the
Company shall pay to each Purchaser an amount, as liquidated damages and not as
a penalty, equal to one half of one percent (0.5%) per month (pro rata on a 30
day basis) for the first thirty (30) days, and thereafter, one percent (1.5%)
per month (pro rata on a 30 day basis), of the aggregate purchase price paid by
such Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement for any Securities then held by such
Purchaser until the Suspension is cured. Such liquidated damages shall be
payable monthly in cash.
(i) The Purchaser further represents and warrants to, and covenants
with, the Company that (i) the Purchaser has full right, power, authority and
capacity to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby and has taken all necessary action to authorize the
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, (ii) the making and
performance of this Agreement by the Purchaser and the consummation of the
transactions herein contemplated will not violate any provision of the
organizational documents of the Purchaser or conflict with, result in the breach
or violation of, or constitute, either by itself or upon notice or the passage
of time or both, a default under any material agreement, mortgage, deed of
trust, lease, franchise, license, indenture, permit or other instrument to which
the Purchaser is a party, or any statute or any authorization, judgment, decree,
order, rule or regulation of any court or any regulatory body, administrative
agency or other governmental body applicable to the Purchaser, (iii) no consent,
approval, authorization or other order of any court, regulatory body,
administrative agency or other governmental body is required on the part of the
Purchaser for the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iv) upon the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, this Agreement shall constitute a legal, valid and
binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms,
except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, 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) and except to the extent enforcement of the
indemnification provisions, set forth in Section 7.3 of this Agreement, may be
limited by federal or state securities laws or the public policy underlying such
laws, and (v) there is not in effect any order enjoining or restraining the
Purchaser from entering into or engaging in any of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement.

SECTION 6. Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements.
Notwithstanding any investigation made by any party to this Agreement or by the
Placement Agent, all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made
by the Company and the Purchaser herein and in the certificates for the
Securities delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the execution of this
Agreement, the delivery to the Purchaser of the Securities being purchased and
the payment therefore.
SECTION 7. Registration of the Shares and the Warrant Shares;
Compliance with the Securities Act.
7.1 Registration Procedures and Expenses. The Company shall:
(a) as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than
ten (10) days following the Closing Date, prepare and file with the Commission
the Registration Statement on Form S-3 relating to the sale of the Shares and
the Warrant Shares by the Purchaser and the Other Purchasers from time to time
on the American Stock Exchange or the facilities of any national securities
exchange on which the Common Stock is then traded or in privately-negotiated
transactions;
(b) use its best efforts, subject to receipt of necessary
information from the Purchasers, to cause the Commission to declare the
Registration Statement effective within forty-five (45) days after the Closing
Date or, in the event of a review of the Registration Statement by the
Commission, within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date;
(c) use its best efforts to promptly prepare and file with the
Commission such amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and the
prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep the
Registration Statement effective until the earliest of (i) two years after the
effective date of the Registration Statement, or (ii) such time as the Shares
and the Warrant Shares become eligible for resale by non-affiliates pursuant to
Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended;
(d) furnish to the Purchaser with respect to the Shares and the
Warrant Shares registered under the Registration Statement (and to each
underwriter, if any, of such Shares or Warrant Shares) such number of copies of
prospectuses and such other documents as the Purchaser may reasonably request,
in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of all or any of the
Shares and the Warrant Shares by the Purchaser;
(e) file documents required of the Company for normal Blue Sky
clearance in states specified in writing by the Purchaser; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business or consent to
service of process in any jurisdiction in which it is not now so qualified or
has not so consented;
(f) bear all expenses in connection with the procedures in
paragraphs (a) through (e) of this Section 7.1 and the registration of the
Shares and the Warrant Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement, other than
fees and expenses, if any, of counsel or other advisers to the Purchaser or the
Other Purchasers or underwriting discounts, brokerage fees and commissions
incurred by the Purchaser or the Other Purchasers, if any;
15
(g) file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under
Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to the Purchaser promptly after
filing;
(h) issue a press release describing the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement on the Closing Date; and
(i) make available, while the Registration Statement is effective
and available for resale, its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer,
and Chief Operating Officer for questions regarding information which the
Purchaser may reasonably request in order to fulfill any due diligence
obligation on its part.
The Company understands that the Purchaser disclaims being an underwriter,
but the Purchaser being deemed an underwriter shall not relieve the Company of
any obligations it has hereunder. A questionnaire related thereto to be
completed by the Purchaser is attached hereto as Appendix I.
7.2 Transfer of Shares and Warrant Shares After Registration. The
Purchaser agrees that it will not effect any disposition of the Securities or
the Warrant Shares or its right to purchase the Securities or the Warrant Shares
that would constitute a sale within the meaning of the Securities Act or any
applicable state securities laws, except as contemplated in the Registration
Statement referred to in Section 7.1 or as otherwise permitted by law, and that
it will promptly notify the Company of any changes in the information set forth
in the Registration Statement regarding the Purchaser or its plan of
distribution.
7.3 Indemnification. For the purpose of this Section 7.3:
(i) the term "Purchaser/Affiliate" shall mean any affiliate of the
Purchaser, including a transferee who is an affiliate of the
Purchaser, and any person who controls the Purchaser or any
affiliate of the Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act; and
(ii) the term "Registration Statement" shall include any preliminary
prospectus, final prospectus, exhibit, supplement or amendment
included in or relating to, and any document incorporated by
reference in, the Registration Statement referred to in Section 7.1.
(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser
and each Purchaser/Affiliate against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses, joint or several, to which such Purchaser or Purchaser/Affiliate may
become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal
or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including
in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the prior
written consent of the Company), insofar as such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below)
arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, including the
Prospectus, financial statements and schedules, and all other documents filed as
a part thereof, as amended at the time of effectiveness of the Registration
Statement, including any information deemed to be a part thereof as of the time
of effectiveness pursuant to paragraph (b) of Rule 430A, or pursuant to Rule
434, of the Rules and Regulations, or the Prospectus, in the form first filed
with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Regulations, or filed as part
of the Registration Statement at the time of effectiveness if no Rule 424(b)
filing is required, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or
are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in any of them a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
in any of them, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, or arise out of or are based in whole or in part on any inaccuracy
in the representations or warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement,
16
or any failure of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder or under law,
and will promptly reimburse each such Purchaser and each such
Purchaser/Affiliate for any legal and other expenses as such expenses are
reasonably incurred by such Purchaser or such Purchaser/Affiliate in connection
with investigating, defending or preparing to defend, settling, compromising or
paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action not to exceed
the proceeds from the purchase and sale of the Securities paid by such
Purchaser; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such
case to the extent, but only to the extent, that any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or expense arises out of or is based upon (i) an untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the
Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the
Company by or on behalf of the Purchaser expressly for use therein, or (ii) the
failure of such Purchaser to comply with the covenants and agreements contained
in Sections 5 or 7.2, or (iii) the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty
made by such Purchaser herein or (iv) any statement or omission in any
Prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent Prospectus that was delivered to
the Purchaser prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Purchaser.
(b) Each Purchaser will severally indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, each of its directors, each of its executive officers, including such
officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who
controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or
Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities
or expenses to which the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers
who signed the Registration Statement or controlling person may become subject,
under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state
statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in
settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written
consent of such Purchaser) insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities
or expenses (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arise out of
or are based upon (i) any failure to comply with the covenants and agreements
contained in Sections 5 or 7.2 hereof, or (ii) the inaccuracy of any
representation or warranty made by such Purchaser herein, or (iii) any untrue or
alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration
Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out
of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that
such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission was made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any
amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written
information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Purchaser expressly
for use therein, and will reimburse the Company, each of its directors, each of
its officers who signed the Registration Statement or controlling person for any
17
legal and other expense reasonably incurred by the Company, each of its
directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement or
controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling,
compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or
action. Notwithstanding anything hereon contained to the contrary, in no event
shall the liability of any Purchaser be greater in amount than the dollar amount
of the net proceeds received by such Purchaser upon the sale of the Shares
giving rise to such indemnification obligation.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 7.3 of notice of the threat or commencement of any action, such
indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an
indemnifying party under this Section 7.3, promptly notify the indemnifying
party in writing thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party
will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified
party for contribution or otherwise under the indemnity agreement contained in
this Section 7.3 to the extent it is not prejudiced as a result of such failure.
In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such
indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party,
the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent
that it may wish, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly
notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to
such indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action
include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the
indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded, based on an opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnifying party, that there may be a
conflict of interest between the positions of the indemnifying party and the
indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may
be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are
different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the
indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to
assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such
action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice
from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to assume
the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the
indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this
Section 7.3 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the
indemnified party shall have employed such counsel in connection with the
assumption of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the preceding
sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be
liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel, reasonably
satisfactory to such indemnifying party, representing all of the indemnified
parties who are parties to such action) or (ii) the indemnifying party shall not
have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to
represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of
commencement of action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees and expenses
of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party. In no event shall
any indemnifying party be liable in respect of any amounts paid in settlement of
any action unless the indemnifying party shall have approved in writing the
terms of such settlement; provided that such consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the
indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding
in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and
indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party from
all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.
18
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.3 is
required by its terms but is for any reason held to be unavailable to or
otherwise insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under paragraphs
(a), (b) or (c) of this Section 7.3 in respect to any losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses referred to herein, then each applicable indemnifying
party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party
as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to
herein (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits
received by the Company and the Purchaser from the private placement of Common
Stock hereunder or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not
permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not
only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but the relative
fault of the Company and the Purchaser in connection with the statements or
omissions or inaccuracies in the representations and warranties in this
Agreement and/or the Registration Statement which resulted in such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The respective relative benefits received by the
Company on the one hand and each Purchaser on the other shall be deemed to be in
the same proportion as the amount paid by such Purchaser to the Company pursuant
to this Agreement for the Securities purchased by such Purchaser that were sold
pursuant to the Registration Statement bears to the difference (the
"Difference") between the amount such Purchaser paid for the Shares that were
sold pursuant to the Registration Statement and the amount received by such
Purchaser from such sale. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand,
and each Purchaser on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue or alleged statement of a material fact or the
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact or the inaccurate or the
alleged inaccurate representation and/or warranty relates to information
supplied by the Company or by such Purchaser and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be
deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in paragraph (c) of this
Section 7.3, any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such
party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim. The
provisions set forth in paragraph (c) of this Section 7.3 with respect to the
notice of the threat or commencement of any threat or action shall apply if a
claim for contribution is to be made under this paragraph (d); provided,
however, that no additional notice shall be required with respect to any threat
or action for which notice has been given under paragraph (c) for purposes of
indemnification. The Company and each Purchaser agree that it would not be just
and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7.3 were determined
solely by pro rata allocation (even if the Purchaser were treated as one entity
for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take
account of the equitable considerations referred to in this paragraph.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7.3, no Purchaser shall be
required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the
Difference exceeds the amount of any damages that such Purchaser has otherwise
been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. The Purchasers' obligations to contribute pursuant to this
Section 7.3 are several and not joint.
19
7.4 Termination of Conditions and Obligations. The restrictions
imposed by Section 5 or this Section 7 upon the transferability of the
Securities and the Warrant Shares shall cease and terminate as to any particular
number of the Shares or Warrant Shares upon the passage of two years from the
effective date of the Registration Statement covering such Shares and Warrant
Shares or at such time as an opinion of counsel satisfactory in form and
substance to the Company shall have been rendered to the effect that such
conditions are not necessary in order to comply with the Securities Act.
7.5 Information Available. So long as the Registration Statement is
effective covering the resale of Shares and Warrant Shares owned by the
Purchaser, the Company will furnish to the Purchaser:
(a) other than any such reports or communications filed with the
Commission pursuant to the Commission's XXXXX system, as soon as practicable
after available (but in the case of the Annual Report to the Stockholders,
within 150 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company), one copy of
(i) its Annual Report to Stockholders (which Annual Report shall contain
financial statements audited in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles by a national firm of certified public accountants), (ii) if not
included in substance in the Annual Report to Stockholders, upon the request of
Purchaser, its Annual Report on Form 10-K, (iii) upon request of Purchaser, its
quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and (iv) a full copy of the particular
Registration Statement covering the Shares and the Warrant Shares (the
foregoing, in each case, excluding exhibits);
(b) upon the reasonable request of the Purchaser, a reasonable
number of copies of the Prospectuses, and any supplements thereto, to supply to
any other party requiring such Prospectuses;
and the Company, upon the reasonable request of the Purchaser and with prior
notice, will be available to the Purchaser or a representative thereof at the
Company's headquarters to discuss information relevant for disclosure in the
Registration Statement covering the Shares and the Warrant Shares and will
otherwise cooperate with any Purchaser conducting an investigation for the
purpose of reducing or eliminating such Purchaser's exposure to liability under
the Securities Act, including the reasonable production of information at the
Company's headquarters, subject to appropriate confidentiality limitations.
7.6 Liquidated Damages. In the event the Registration Statement is
not declared effective within forty-five (45) days following the Closing Date,
or in the event of a review of the Registration Statement by the Commission,
within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Company shall pay to each
Purchaser an amount, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to one
half of one percent (0.5%) per month (pro rata on a 30 day basis) for the first
thirty (30) days, and thereafter, one percent (1.5%) per month (pro rata on a 30
day basis), of the aggregate purchase price paid by such Purchaser pursuant to
this Agreement for any Securities then held by such Purchaser until the
Registration Statement is declared effective. Such liquidated damages shall be
payable monthly in cash.
SECTION 8. Right of First Offer.
8.1 Subject to the terms and conditions specified in this Section 8,
the Company hereby grants to each Purchaser, for the 365 day period following
the Closing Date, a right of first offer with respect to future sales by the
Company of shares of any class of its capital stock, or any securities
convertible or exercisable therefor ("First Offer Shares").
20
8.2 Each time the Company proposes to offer any shares of, or
securities convertible into or exercisable for any First Offer Shares, the
Company shall first make an offer of such First Offer Shares to each Purchaser
in accordance with the following provisions:
(a) The Company shall deliver a notice (the "Notice") to each
Purchaser stating (A) its bona fide intention to offer such First Offer Shares,
(B) the number of such First Offer Shares to be offered and (C) the price and
terms, if any, upon which it proposes to offer such First Offer Shares.
(b) Within seven (7) days after receipt of the Notice, each
Purchaser may elect to purchase or obtain, at the price and on the terms
specified in the Notice, that portion of such First Offer Shares which equals
the proportion that the number of shares of Common Stock issued and held by such
Purchaser bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company
(assuming full conversion and exercise of all convertible or exercisable
securities) then held by all of the shareholders of the Company. The Company
shall promptly, in writing, inform each Purchaser which purchases all the shares
available to it (a "Fully-Exercising Purchaser") of any other Purchaser's
failure to do likewise. During the seven (7) day period commencing after receipt
of such information, each Fully-Exercising Purchaser shall be entitled to obtain
that portion of the Shares not subscribed for by the Purchaser equal to the
proportion that the number of shares of Common Stock issued and held by such
Fully-Exercising Purchaser bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock
issued and held by all Fully-Exercising Purchasers who wish to purchase some of
the unsubscribed First Offer Shares.

hereof, offer the remaining unsubscribed portion of such First Offer Shares to
any person or persons at a price not less than, and upon terms no more favorable
to the offeree than those specified in the Notice. If the Company does not enter
into an agreement for the sale of the First Offer Shares within such period, or
if such agreement is not consummated within fourteen (14) days of the execution

First Offer Shares shall not be offered unless first reoffered to the Purchasers
in accordance herewith.
(d) The right of first offer in this Section 8 shall not be
applicable (i) to the issuance of sale of shares of Common Stock (or options
therefor) to directors, officers, employees or consultants of the Company for
the primary purpose of soliciting or retaining their services (or for similar
compensatory purposes) or (ii) to or after consummation of a bona fide, firmly
underwritten public offering of the Company under the Securities Act, pursuant
to a registration statement on Form S-1, or (iii) the issuance of securities
pursuant to the conversion or exercise of then-outstanding convertible or
exercisable securities.

indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and each Purchaser/Affiliate against
any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, joint or several, to which
such Purchaser or Purchaser/Affiliate may become subject with respect to such
fee. Each of the parties hereto hereby represents that, on the basis of any

validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained
herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York and the federal
law of the United States of America.

when taken together, shall constitute but one instrument, and shall become
effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each party hereto
and delivered (including by facsimile) to the other parties.
SECTION 16. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the instruments
referenced herein contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect

or among funds that are under common control, provided that such assignee agrees
to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.
SECTION 18. Further Assurances. Each party agrees to cooperate fully
with the other parties and to execute such further instruments, documents and
agreements and to give such further written assurance as may be reasonably
requested by any other party to evidence and reflect the transactions described
herein and contemplated hereby and to carry into effect the intents and purposes
of this Agreement.
SECTION 19. Independent Nature of Purchasers' Obligations and
Rights. The obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement 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 the Agreements. The decision of each Purchaser to purchase
Securities pursuant to the Agreements has been made by such Purchaser
independently of any other Purchaser. Nothing contained in the Agreements, and
no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant 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 Agreements. 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 this Agreement. Each Purchaser shall be entitled to
independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the
rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any
other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such
purpose.

REGISTRATION STATEMENT QUESTIONNAIRE
Intelli-Check, Inc. ("Company")
SELLING STOCKHOLDER QUESTIONNAIRE
The following information is requested for use in connection with the
preparation of a registration statement registering shares of our common stock
(the "Shares") and shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants
(the "Warrant Shares") for resale by you as a selling stockholder. The Shares
and Warrant Shares, which you acquired in connection with the Company's private
placement (the "Private Placement"), will be included in a Registration
Statement on Form S-3 filed under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act").
Please complete and sign one copy of this questionnaire, and return it to
Xxxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx, Esq., Loeb & Loeb LLP, 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx
00000 at your earliest opportunity.
Kindly note that while some of the information requested herein may be
deemed not material and therefore not required to be disclosed in the
registration statement relating to the proposed public offering, you should
provide all the information requested.
ITEM 1. DEFINITIONS
Before you complete this Questionnaire, please give consideration to the
following definitions of various terms used in this Questionnaire.
"Associate", as used throughout this questionnaire, means (a) any
corporation or organization (other than the Company or any of its subsidiaries)
of which you are an officer, director or partner or of which you are, directly
or indirectly, the beneficial owner of 5% or more of any class of equity
securities, (b) any trust or other estate in which you have a substantial
beneficial interest or as to which you serve as trustee or in a similar
capacity, (c) your spouse, (d) any relative of your spouse or any relative of
yours who has the same home as you or who is a director or officer of key
executive of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (e) any partner, syndicate
member or person with whom you have agreed to act in concert with respect to the
acquisition, holding, voting or disposition of shares of the Company's
securities.
"Beneficially", when used in connection with the ownership of
securities, means (a) any interest in a security which entitled you to any of
the rights or benefits of ownership even though you may not be the owner of
record or (b) securities owned by you directly or indirectly, including those
held by you for your own benefit (regardless of how registered), and securities
held by others for your benefit (regardless of how registered), such as by
custodians, brokers, nominees, pledgees, etc., and including securities held by
an estate or trust in which you have an interest as legatee or beneficiary,
securities owned by a partnership of which you are a partner, securities held by
a personal holding company of which you are a stockholder, etc., and securities
held in the name of your spouse, minor children and any relative (sharing the
same home). A "beneficial owner" of a security includes any person who, directly
or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or
other wise has or shares:
(1) voting power which includes the power to vote, or to direct
the voting of, such security; and/or
(2) investment power which includes the power to dispose, or to
direct the disposition, of such security.
In addition to being beneficial owner of securities over which you have, or
share, voting or investment power, you are deemed to be the beneficial owner of
a security if you have a right, within sixty days, to acquire beneficial
ownership of (i.e., the right to obtain or share voting or investment power
over) such security. Examples of such rights would include the right to acquire:
(i) through the exercise of any option, warrant or similar right; (ii) through
conversion of any security; or (iii) pursuant to the power to revoke, or the
provision for automatic termination of, a trust, discretionary account or
options, convertible securities or power to revoke such a trust with the
"purpose or effect" or changing or influencing control underlying securities
upon such acquisition, without regard to the sixty day rule state above.
"Control" means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power
to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person,
whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.
A "Control Person" of a specified person is a person that directly,
or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls the person specified.
"Material", when used in this questionnaire to qualify a requirement
for the furnishing of information as to any subject, limits the information
required to those matters as to which an average prudent investor ought
reasonable to be informed before purchasing the securities of the Company.
"Material Relationship" has not been defined by the Securities and
Exchange Commission. However, the Commission has indicated that it will probably
construe as a "material relationship" any relationship which tends to prevent
armslength bargaining in dealings with a company, whether arising from a close
business connection or family relationship, a relationship of control or
otherwise. It seems prudent, therefore, to consider that you would have such a
relationship, for example, with any organization of which you are an officer,
director, trustee or partner or in which you own, directly or indirectly, 10% or
more of the outstanding voting stock, or in which you have some other
substantial interest, and with any person or organization with whom you have, or
with whom any relative or spouse (or any other person or organization as to
which you have any of the foregoing other relationships) has, a contractual
relationship.
The National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD")
defines a "Member" as being either any broker or dealer admitted to a membership
in the NASD or any officer or partner of such a member, or the executive
representative of such a member or the substitute for such a representative.
The NASD defines a "Person Associated with a Member" as being every
sole proprietor, partner, officer, director or branch manager of any member, or
any natural person occupying a similar status or performing similar functions,
or any natural person engaged in the investment banking or securities business
who is directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by such member (for
example, any employee), whether or not any such person is registered or exempt
from registration with the NASD.
The NASD defines an "Underwriter or a Related Person" with respect
to a proposed offering as being underwriters, underwriters' counsel, financial
consultants and advisors, finders, members of the selling or distribution group,
and any and all other persons associated with or related to any of such persons.
