Section 2.1 Representations and Warranties of the Company. In order to induce the Purchasers to enter into this Agreement and to purchase the Shares, the Company hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Purchaser:

(a) Organization, Good Standing and Power. The Company is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the requisite corporate power to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to conduct its business as it is now being conducted. The Company does not have any subsidiaries or own securities of any kind in any other entity. The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except for any jurisdiction(s) (alone or in the aggregate) in which the failure to be so qualified will not have a Material Adverse Effect. For the purposes of this Agreement, "Material Adverse Effect" means any adverse effect on the business, operations, properties or financial condition of the Company which is material to the Company taken as a whole.

(b) Authorization; Enforcement. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, the "Registration Rights Agreement") and the other agreements and documents contemplated hereby and thereby and executed by the Company or to which the Company is party (collectively, the "Transaction Documents"), and to issue and sell the Shares in accordance with the terms hereof. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and no further consent or authorization of the Company, its Board of Directors or its stockholders is required. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company. The other Transaction Documents will have been duly executed and delivered by the Company at the Closing. Each of the Transaction Documents constitutes, or shall constitute when executed and delivered, a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except (i) to the extent that the indemnification provisions contained in the Registration Rights Agreement may be limited by applicable law and principles of public policy, (ii) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and (iii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies or by general principles of equity.

(c) Capitalization. The authorized capital stock of the Company as of the date of this Agreement consists of 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value, of which 3,801,991 shares are issued and outstanding and 3,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value, none of which are issued and outstanding. All of the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock and any other security of the Company have been duly and validly authorized. No shares of Common Stock or any other security of the Company are entitled to preemptive rights. Except (i) options to purchase 1,390,173 shares of the Company's Common Stock issued pursuant to the Company's stock option plans and outstanding as of the date of this Agreement, (ii) an additional 124,939 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to the Company's stock option plans, (iii) warrants to acquire 636,585 shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the Warrants, (iv) 760,398 shares of common stock reserved for the conversion of convertible notes, and (v) except as described in the Transaction Documents, there are no outstanding options, warrants, scrip, rights to subscribe to, call or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities or rights convertible into, any shares of capital stock of the Company, and there are no contracts, commitments, understandings, or arrangements by which the Company is or may become bound to issue additional shares of the capital stock of the Company or options, securities or rights convertible into shares of capital stock of the Company. Except as described in the Transaction Documents, the Company is not a party to or bound by any agreement or understanding granting registration or anti-dilution rights to any person with respect to any of its equity or debt securities. The Company has furnished or made available to the Purchasers true and correct copies of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation as in effect on the date hereof (the "Certificate") and the Company's Bylaws as in effect on the date hereof (the "Bylaws").

(d) Issuance of Securities. The Shares to be issued at the Closing have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and, when paid for or issued in accordance with the terms hereof, the Shares shall be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable and free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and rights of refusal of any kind (other than those arising from the actions or inactions of the Purchaser itself), and the holders shall be entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of Common Stock; provided, however, that the Shares may be subject to restriction or transfer under state and federal securities laws.

(e) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby do not and will not (i) violate any provision of the Certificate or Bylaws, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement, instrument or obligation to which the Company is a party or by which the Company's properties or assets are bound, (iii) create or impose a lien, mortgage, security interest, charge or encumbrance of any nature on any property or asset of the Company under any agreement or any commitment to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or by which any of its properties or assets are bound, or (iv) result in a violation of any federal, state, local or foreign statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable to the Company or by which any property or asset of the Company is bound or affected, except, in all cases other than violations pursuant to clause (i) above, for such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, acceleration, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(f) Commission Documents; Financial Statements. The Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and the Company has timely filed all material reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") pursuant to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, including material filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (all of the foregoing, including filings incorporated by reference therein, being referred to herein as the "Commission Documents"). The Company has not provided to the Purchasers any material non-public information or other information which, according to applicable federal securities law, rule or regulation, should have been disclosed publicly by the Company but which has not been so disclosed, other than with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. At the time of its filing, the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2010 (the "Form 10-Q") complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, and the Form 10-Q did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. At the time of its filing, the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 (the "Form 10-K") complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, and, at the time of its filing, the Form 10-K did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. As of their respective dates, the financial statements of the Company included in the Form 10-Q and Form 10-K complied as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the Commission or other applicable rules and regulations with respect thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may not include footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements), and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the Company as of the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments).

(g) No Undisclosed Events or Circumstances. Since September 30, 2010, except as set forth in the Commission Documents, no event or circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to the Company or its businesses, properties, operations or financial condition, which, under applicable federal securities law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure or announcement by the Company but which has not been publicly so announced or disclosed.

(h) Securities Act of 1933. The Company has complied and will comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws in connection with the offer, issuance and sale of the Shares hereunder. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf, directly or indirectly, has or will sell, offer to sell or solicit offers to buy any of the Securities, or similar securities to, or solicit offers with respect thereto from, or enter into any preliminary conversations or negotiations relating thereto with, any person, or has taken or will take any action such that the issuance and sale of any of the Securities are not exempt from the registration provisions of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act) in connection with the offer or sale of any of the Securities.

(i) Governmental Approvals. Except for the filing of any notice prior or subsequent to the Closing that may be required under applicable state and/or federal securities laws (which if required, shall be filed on a timely basis), no authorization, consent, approval, license, exemption of, filing or registration with any court or governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality located in the United States is or will be necessary for, or in connection with, the issuance or delivery of the Shares, or for the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Transaction Documents.

Section 2.2 Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser. The Purchaser hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Company with respect solely to itself:

(a) Organization and Standing of the Purchaser. The Purchaser is a corporation duly incorporated or organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization.

(b) Authorization and Power. Such Purchaser has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents, to purchase the Shares being sold to it hereunder, and to carry out and perform its obligations under the terms of the Transaction Documents. All action on the part of such Purchaser necessary for the authorization, execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents, and the performance of all such Purchaser's obligations under the Transaction Documents, has been taken or will be taken prior to the Closing. The Transaction Documents constitute, or shall constitute when executed and delivered, valid and legally binding obligations of such Purchaser enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with their terms, except: (i) to the extent that the indemnification provisions contained in the Registration Rights Agreement may be limited by applicable law and principles of public policy, (ii) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and (iii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies or by general principles of equity. No consent, approval, authorization, order, filing, registration or qualification of or with any court, governmental authority or third person is required to be obtained by the Purchaser in connection with the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Purchaser or the performance of the Purchaser's obligations hereunder or thereunder.

(c) Acquisition for Investment. Such Purchaser is purchasing the Shares solely for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and for the purpose of investment and not with a view to or for resale in connection with the distribution thereof. Such Purchaser does not have a present intention to sell any of the Securities, nor a present arrangement (whether or not legally binding) or intention to effect any distribution of any of the Securities to or through any person or entity. Such Purchaser acknowledges that it (i) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters such that such Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and (ii) is able to bear the financial risks associated with an investment in the Company.

(d) Rule 144. Such Purchaser understands that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless such Securities are registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration is available. Such Purchaser acknowledges that it is familiar with the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act ("Rule 144"), which permit resale of shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, which may include, among other things, the availability of certain current public information about the Company; the resale occurring not less than a specified period after a party has purchased and paid for the security to be sold; the number of shares being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations; the sale being effected through a "brokers' transaction," a transaction directly with a "market maker" or a "riskless principal transaction" (as those terms are defined in the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder); and the filing of a Form 144 notice, if applicable, and that such Purchaser has been advised that Rule 144 permits resales only under certain circumstances. Such Purchaser understands that to the extent that Rule 144 is not available, such Purchaser will be unable to sell any Securities without either registration under the Securities Act or the existence of another exemption from such registration requirement. Such Purchaser understands that, although Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell restricted securities received in a private offering, other than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and the brokers who participate in the transactions do so at their own risk.

(e) General. The Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered and sold in reliance on a transactional exemption from the registration requirements of federal and state securities laws, and the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of the Purchaser to acquire the Securities. The Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any government or governmental agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities.

(f) Opportunities for Additional Information. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Purchaser has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from, or obtain additional information from, the executive officers of the Company concerning the Transaction Documents, the exhibits and schedules attached hereto and thereto and the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, as well as the business, management, financial and other affairs of the Company, and to the extent deemed necessary in light of such Purchaser's personal knowledge of the Company's affairs, the Purchaser has asked such questions and received answers to the full satisfaction of the Purchaser. The Purchaser believes that it has received all the information the Purchaser considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to purchase the Securities. The Purchaser also acknowledges that it is relying solely on its own advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or its agents for legal or tax advice with respect to this investment or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

(g) No General Solicitation. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Securities were not offered to the Purchaser by means of any form of general or public solicitation or general advertising, or publicly disseminated advertisements or sales literature, including (i) any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media, or broadcast over television or radio, or (ii) any seminar or meeting to which such Purchaser was invited by any of the foregoing means of communications.

(h) Accredited Investor. The Purchaser is an accredited investor (as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D, promulgated by the Commission under the Securities Act), and the Purchaser has such experience in business and financial matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities. The Purchaser acknowledges that an investment in the Securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk.
