SECTION 2.2 Capitalization. The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock (“Preferred Stock”).

(e) If a claim for indemnification under this Section 4.3 is unavailable (by reason of public policy or otherwise) or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses referred to herein, then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute (but not in an amount greater than it would pay under Section 4.3(d)) 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 as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault 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 of a material fact, was taken or 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, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth herein, any reasonable attorneys’ or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for herein was available to such party in accordance with its terms.

(f) The parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledge that they are sophisticated business persons who were represented by counsel during the negotiations regarding the provisions hereof including, without limitation, the provisions of this Section 4.3, and are fully informed regarding said provisions. They further acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 4.3 fairly allocate the risks in light of the ability of the Purchasers to investigate the Company and its business, and the ability of the Company to investigate certain matters regarding the Purchaser, in order to assure that adequate disclosure is made in the S-3 as required by the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

SECTION 4.4 Liquidated Damages. If the S-3 is not declared effective by the SEC on or prior to the Effective Date, without regard for the reason therefor, then on each day commencing on the Effective Date until the S-3 is declared effective by the SEC, the Company will pay an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1/30th of 1.0% of the aggregate purchase price paid to the Company by Purchaser for the Units purchased hereunder, up to a maximum aggregate amount equal to 10% of the aggregate purchase price paid to the Company for the Units purchased hereunder (for clarification, such aggregate purchase price will not include any amounts paid or to be paid to the Company upon the exercise of the Warrants). The Company will pay any partial liquidated damages in arrears on a weekly basis on the last business day of each week. If the Company fails to pay any partial liquidated damages in full within seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 10% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to the Purchaser, accruing daily from the date such partial liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full.

SECTION 4.5 Suspension. Upon receipt of a notice (a “Suspension Notice”) from the Company of the happening of any event that makes any statement made in the S-3 or related prospectus untrue or which requires the making of any changes in such S-3 or prospectus so that they will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any 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, Purchaser agrees that it shall forthwith discontinue disposition of shares pursuant to such S-3 until Purchaser’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus (which the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and distribute promptly) or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings which are incorporated by reference in the prospectus. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, upon the delivery of a Suspension Notice the Company may delay the filing of any required amendment or supplement to the S-3 if: (a) in the good faith and reasonable judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, disclosure of such amended information could be seriously detrimental to the Company, and the Board of Directors of the Company concludes, as a result, that it is in the best interest of the Company to defer the filing of such amendment or supplement at such time, and (b) the Company furnishes to Purchaser a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it could be seriously detrimental to the Company for such amendment or supplement to be filed at such time and that it is, therefore, in the best interest of the Company to defer the filing of such amendment or supplement to the S-3; provided, however, that (i) the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than 30 days, (ii) the Company shall not defer its obligation in this manner more than two times and (iii) the S-3 Effective Period shall be extended for the amount of time that the S-3 is unavailable due to such a deferral. The Company shall be permitted to enter stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent with respect to the Registrable Securities during any period under which a Suspension Notice shall be in effect

SECTION 4.6 Termination of Obligations. The provisions of this Article IV shall terminate with respect to any particular Registrable Securities when such Registrable Securities shall have been sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the intended method of disposition set forth in the S-3.

SECTION 4.7 Current Public Information. As long as the Purchaser owns any Registrable Securities that are not otherwise eligible for sale as contemplated by Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file all required reports with the SEC, or otherwise make available “adequate current public information” about itself, within the meaning of Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act, to potentially make available to the Purchaser the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities without registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that a holder of Registrable Securities may dispose of such Registrable Securities pursuant to the S-3, the Company shall not be liable to any such holder for any breach of the provisions of this Section 4.6.

SECTION 6.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including exhibits or other documents referred to herein or that specifically indicate that they were delivered to the Purchaser in connection with this Agreement, together with the instrument evidencing the Warrants, embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior oral or written agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof (other than the non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements, if any, between the Company and any Purchaser signed in anticipation of an equity financing by the Company). No statement, representation, warranty,

covenant or agreement of any kind not expressly set forth in this Agreement shall affect, or be used to interpret, change or restrict, the express terms and provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 6.3 Amendments. The terms and provisions of the Agreement may be modified, amended or waived, or consent for the departure from such terms and provisions may be granted, only by written consent of the Company and by Purchasers holding or otherwise entitled to acquire at least two-thirds of the Registrable Securities issued or issuable at the time of such action, except that no such modification, amendment, waiver or departure shall be effective if its purpose or dominant effect is to disadvantage a non-consenting Purchaser. Each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which it was given, and shall not constitute a continuing waiver or consent.

SECTION 6.4 Assignment. Prior to the Second Closing, upon written notice to the Company, Sprott may transfer all of its rights and obligations hereunder to any affiliate of Sprott. Without limiting the foregoing, any Purchaser may transfer its rights and obligations hereunder to any third party, provided that any such transferee agrees in writing to assume all of the obligations and liabilities of its transferor hereunder and agrees itself to be bound hereby all in accordance with and pursuant to a duly executed written instrument in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

SECTION 6.5 Benefit. All statements, representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement shall be binding on the parties hereto and shall inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of each party hereto. Except with respect to the indemnify obligations, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create any rights or obligations except among the parties hereto, and no person or entity shall be regarded as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

SECTION 6.6 Governing Law. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the partied hereunder shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof.

SECTION 6.7 Severability. In the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any provision, or any portion thereof, contained in this Agreement shall be unreasonable or unenforceable in any respect, then such provision shall be deemed limited to the extent that such court deems it reasonable and enforceable, and as so limited shall remain in full force and effect. In the event that such court shall deem any such provision, or portion thereof, wholly unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 6.8 Headings and Captions. The headings and captions of the various subdivisions of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall in no way modify or affect the meaning or constructions of any of the terms or provisions hereof.

SECTION 6.9 No Waiver of Rights, Powers and Remedies. No failure or delay by a party hereto in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Agreement, and no course of dealing between the parties hereto, shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or remedy of the party. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by a party hereto, nor any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce any such right, power or remedy,

shall preclude such party from other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder. The election of any remedy by a party hereto shall not constitute a waiver of the right of such party to pursue other available remedies. No notice to or demand on a party not expressly required under this Agreement shall entitle the party receiving such notice or demand to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the party giving such notice or demand to any other or further action in any circumstances without such notice or demand.

SECTION 6.10 Fees and Expenses. At the Second Closing, the Company will pay to Sprott a $1,500,000 fee in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Except as set forth in the foregoing sentence, each of the parties shall pay its own fees and expenses (including the fees of any attorneys, accountants, appraisers or others engaged by such party) in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated.

SECTION 6.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one agreement.

SECTION 6.12 Further Assurances. In case at any time after either Closing any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the Company and the Purchaser will take such further action as the other party may reasonably request, all at the sole cost and expense of the requesting party.

SECTION 6.13 Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each 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 hereunder. The decision of each Purchaser to purchase Securities pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Purchaser independently of any other Purchaser. Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto, 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 this Agreement. 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.

EXHIBIT A

SHAREHOLDER INFORMATION REQUEST

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The selling shareholders and their successors, which includes their donees, pledges, transferees and successors-in-interest, may sell the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus from time to time in one or more transactions. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling shareholders. The selling shareholders may sell the shares at fixed prices that may change, market prices at the time of sale, prices related to market prices at the time of sale, or negotiated prices. The selling shareholders may sell the shares in one or more transactions:

· in the over-the-counter market;

· on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which the securities may be listed or quoted at the time of the sale;

· in privately negotiated transactions;

· through the writing of options (including the issuance by the selling shareholders of derivative securities), whether the options or such other derivative securities are listed on an options exchange or otherwise;

· through the settlement of short sales; or

· through any combination of the foregoing.

The selling shareholders may sell the shares to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, who may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling shareholders or the purchasers of the securities. These discounts, concessions or commissions may be in excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved. Any broker-dealer may act as a broker-dealer on behalf of a selling shareholder in connection with the offering of the shares.

There can be no assurance that any selling shareholder will sell any or all of the securities pursuant to this prospectus. Further, we cannot assure you that any such selling shareholder will not transfer, devise or gift the securities by other means not described in this prospectus. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus that qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A of the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 or Rule 144A rather than under this prospectus. The securities may be sold in some states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the securities may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and complied with.

The selling shareholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act. As a result, any profits on the sale of the securities by selling shareholders and any discounts or commissions received by any such broker-dealers or agents may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling shareholders who are “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act will be subject to prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. If the selling shareholders were deemed to be underwriters, the selling shareholders may be subject to certain statutory liabilities of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. If the securities are sold through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, the selling shareholders will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s commissions.

B-5

In connection with the sales of the securities, the selling shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions that in turn may engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging their positions, sell the securities short and deliver the securities to close out short positions, loan or pledge securities to broker-dealers or other financial institutions that in turn may sell the securities, enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions that require the delivery to the broker-dealer or other financial institution of the securities, which the broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to the prospectus, or enter into transactions in which a broker-dealer makes purchases as a principal for resale for its own account or through other types of transactions.

The selling shareholders may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by the selling shareholders or borrowed from the selling shareholders or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of stock, and may use securities received from the selling shareholders in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of stock. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and, if not identified in this prospectus, will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement or a post-effective amendment.

The selling security shareholders and any other person participating in the sale of securities will be subject to the Exchange Act. The Exchange Act rules include, without limitation, Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the securities by the selling shareholders and any other such person. In addition, Regulation M may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the securities to engage in market-making activities with respect to the particular securities being distributed. This may affect the marketability of the securities and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the securities.

To our knowledge, there are currently no plans, arrangements or understandings between any selling shareholders and any underwriter, broker-dealer or agent regarding the sale of the securities by the selling shareholders.

Subject to limited exceptions, we have agreed to bear all expenses in connection with the registration and sale of the shares being offered by the selling shareholders. We and the selling shareholders have agreed to indemnify each other against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
