RESTRICTED COMMON STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
THIS RESTRICTED COMMON STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT dated as of February 24,
2006 (this "Agreement"), among x.Xxxxxxx Corporation, a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), and each of the individual purchasers listed on Exhibit A to
this Agreement who have executed the signature page hereof (the "Purchasers").
WHEREAS, the Company wishes to sell and issue to the Purchasers shares of
Common Stock (the "Common Stock") of the Company, and the Purchasers wish to
purchase such shares from the Company, pursuant to the terms and conditions set
forth herein;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual representations, warranties
and covenants set forth herein, and other valuable consideration, the
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as
follows:
Section 1. PURCHASE AND SALE.
1.1. Sale and Issuance of Shares to Purchasers. Subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, and upon the basis of the representations and
warranties contained in this Agreement, the Company agrees to sell and issue to
the Purchasers, free and clear of any liens, claims, charges and encumbrances
whatsoever, and the Purchasers agree to purchase, severally and not jointly,
from the Company, an aggregate of 18,750,000 shares of Common Stock, par value
$.001 per share, of the Company, for the aggregate purchase price of
$1,500,000.00 (the "Purchase Price") or $0.08 per share.
1.2. Issuance of Warrants to Purchasers. Subject to satisfaction of the
terms and conditions specified in Section 1.1, the Company agrees to issue to
each Purchaser, without payment of additional consideration, (i) a Common Stock
purchase warrant in an amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares
of Common Stock purchased, in the form of Exhibit B-1, registered in the name of
such Purchaser, (collectively, the "Series A Warrants") and (ii) a Common Stock
purchase warrant in an amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares
of Common Stock purchased, in the form of Exhibit B-2, registered in the name of
such Purchaser (collectively, the "Series B Warrants", and together with the
Series A Warrants, the "Warrants"). The Series A Warrants shall have an exercise
price ("Exercise Price") of $0.10 per share and shall be exercisable for a
period from issuance to February 28, 2009. The Series B Warrants shall have an
Exercise Price of $0.09 per share and shall be exercisable for a period ending
on the earlier of (a) of six months following the effectiveness of the
registration statement ("Registration Statement") to be filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for the benefit of the Purchasers or
(b) July 31, 2008. The Warrants shall provide the Purchasers with anti-dilution
protection such that whenever the Company issues or sells any shares of its
Common Stock for consideration per share that is less than the Exercise Price in
effect immediately prior to the time of such issue, then immediately upon such
issue or sale the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the consideration per share
received in exchange for such issuance of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, such anti-dilution provisions shall not apply to (i) securities
issued to employees, consultants, officers or directors of the Company pursuant
to any stock option, stock purchase or stock bonus plan, agreement or
arrangement approved by the Board of Directors; (ii) securities issued pursuant
to the acquisition of another business entity or business segment of any such
entity by the Company by merger, purchase of substantially all of the assets or
other reorganization whereby the Company will own more than fifty (50%) of the
voting power of such business segment of any such entity; (iii) securities
issued to vendors or customers or to other persons in similar commercial
situations with the Company if such issuance is approved by the Board of
Directors; (iv) securities issued in corporate partnering transactions on terms
approved by the Board of Directors; (v) securities issued in accordance with the
terms of any of the Company's preferred stock or warrants outstanding on the
date hereof, if any; and (vi) borrowings, direct or indirect, from financial
institutions regularly engaged in the business of lending money, whether or not
presently authorized with an equity component which is not a major component of
such borrowing; (vii) the first $100,000 in proceeds received by the Company
from the sale of any Common Stock or any securities convertible into or
exercisable for Common Stock or similar equity securities sold in any successive
180-day period beginning on the date of the Warrants and continuing through the
expiration date thereof.

Purchaser, the number of shares of Common Stock to be sold to each Purchaser,

the Warrants is set forth on Exhibit A. Payment for and delivery of the
