quarter occurring subsequent to the commencement of the Open Period, the Company

instructions, pursuant to Section 2(h), prior to the applicable Closing Date.
(e) Limitation on Investor's Obligation to Purchase Shares. In no event
shall the Investor purchase Shares (whether from the Company or in public or
private secondary transactions) other than pursuant to this Agreement until such
date as this Agreement is terminated.
(f) Conditions to Investor's Obligation to Purchase Shares.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall

been notified of any pending or threatened proceeding or other action to de-list
or suspend the Common Stock;

breach of a material provision of, or in default under, this Agreement, the
Registration Rights Agreement or any other agreement executed in connection
herewith which has not been corrected prior to delivery of the Put Notice Date;

commenced by a governmental authority which has not been stayed or abandoned,
prohibiting the purchase or the issuance of the Securities; and
(v) the issuance of the Securities will not violate any shareholder

Transaction" shall be deemed to have occurred upon the closing of any of the
following events: (i) the consolidation, merger or other business combination of

all of the Company's assets; or (iii) the consummation of a purchase, tender or
exchange offer made to, and accepted by, the holders of more than 50% of the

Date (each a "Closing Date"). Prior to each Closing Date, (i) the Company shall
deliver to the Investor pursuant to the this Agreement, certificates
representing the Shares to be issued to the Investor on such date and registered
in the name of the Investor; and (ii) the Investor shall deliver to the Company

Investor, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its
transfer agent to electronically transmit the Securities by crediting the
account of the Investor's prime broker (which shall be specified by the Investor
a reasonably sufficient time in advance) with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal
Agent Commission ("DWAC") system.

The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately
available funds upon demand. Nothing herein shall limit the Investor's right to

constitute payment for and offset any such actual damages alleged by the
Investor, and any Buy In Adjustment Amount.

and purchasable by the Investor, shall not exceed that number of the shares of
Common Stock that may be issuable without shareholder approval, subject to
appropriate adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations or other
similar recapitalization affecting the Common Stock (the "Maximum Common Stock
Issuance"), unless the issuance of Shares, in excess of the Maximum Common Stock
Issuance shall first be approved by the Company's shareholders in accordance
with applicable law and the By-laws and Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation of the Company, if such issuance of shares of Common Stock could
cause a delisting on the Principal Market. The parties understand and agree that
the Company's failure to seek or obtain such shareholder approval shall in no
way adversely affect the validity and due authorization of the issuance and sale
of Securities or the Investor's obligation in accordance with the terms and
conditions hereof to purchase a number of Shares in the aggregate up to the
Maximum Common Stock Issuance limitation, and that such approval pertains only
to the applicability of the Maximum Common Stock Issuance limitation provided in

(iv) the issuance of shares of Common Stock other than as provided in the
foregoing subsections (i) through (iii), at a price per share less, or for other

holders of Common Stock as a dividend in liquidation or by way of return of
capital or other than as a dividend payable out of earnings or surplus legally
available for dividends under applicable law or any distribution to such holders
made in respect of the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets
(other than under the circumstances provided for in the foregoing subsections
(i) through (iv)).

in a Valuation Event occurring during a Pricing Period.

operations or financial condition, that would be required to be disclosed by the
Company under applicable securities laws on a registration statement filed with
the SEC relating to an issuance and sale by the Company of its Common Stock and
which has not been publicly announced.
(k) Employee Relations. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is
involved in any union labor dispute nor, to the knowledge of the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries, is any such dispute threatened. Neither the Company nor any
of its Subsidiaries is a party to a collective bargaining agreement, and the
Company and its Subsidiaries believe that relations with their employees are
good. No executive officer (as defined in Rule 501(f) of the 0000 Xxx) has
notified the Company that such officer intends to leave the Company's employ or
otherwise terminate such officer's employment with the Company.
(l) Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and its Subsidiaries own or
possess adequate rights or licenses to use all trademarks, trade names, service
marks, service xxxx registrations, service names, patents, patent rights,

secrets and rights necessary to conduct their respective businesses as now
conducted. Except as set forth the SEC Documents, none of the Company's
trademarks, trade names, service marks, service xxxx registrations, service
names, patents, patent rights, copyrights, inventions, licenses, approvals,
government authorizations, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights
necessary to conduct its business as now or as proposed to be conducted have

Company or its Subsidiaries regarding trademark, trade name, patents, patent
rights, invention, copyright, license, service names, service marks, service
xxxx registrations, trade secret or other infringement; and the Company and its
Subsidiaries are unaware of any facts or circumstances which might give rise to
any of the foregoing. The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken commercially
reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value
of all of their intellectual properties.
(m) Environmental Laws. The Company and its Subsidiaries (i) are, to the

substances or wastes, pollutants or contaminants ("Environmental Laws"); (ii)
have, to the knowledge of management of the Company, received all permits,
licenses or other approvals required of them under applicable Environmental Laws
to conduct their respective businesses; and (iii) are in compliance, to the
knowledge of the Company, with all terms and conditions of any such permit,
license or approval where, in each of the three foregoing cases, the failure to
so comply would have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse
Effect.
(n) Title. The Company and its Subsidiaries have good and marketable
title in fee simple to all real property and good and marketable title to all
personal property owned by them which is material to the business of the Company
and its Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and
defects except such as are described in the SEC Documents or such as do not
materially affect the value of such property and do not interfere with the use
made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries. Any real property and facilities held under lease by the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and
enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere
with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by the
Company and its Subsidiaries.
(o) Insurance. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries are insured by
insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks
and in such amounts as management of the Company reasonably believes to be
prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company and its
Subsidiaries are engaged. Neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has been
refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for and neither the Company nor
any such Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew
its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain
similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its
business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
(p) Regulatory Permits. The Company and its Subsidiaries have in full
force and effect all certificates, approvals, authorizations and permits from
the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory authorities and
comparable foreign regulatory agencies, necessary to own, lease or operate their
respective properties and assets and conduct their respective businesses, and
neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has received any notice of
proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such certificate,
approval, authorization or permit, except for such certificates, approvals,
authorizations or permits which if not obtained, or such revocations or
modifications which, would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
(q) Internal Accounting Controls. The Company and each of its
Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to
provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance
with management's general or specific authorizations; (ii) transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset
accountability; (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with
management's general or specific authorization; and (iv) the recorded
accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable
intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences.
(r) No Materially Adverse Contracts, Etc. Neither the Company nor any of
its Subsidiaries is subject to any charter, corporate or other legal
restriction, or any judgment, decree, order, rule or regulation which in the
judgment of the Company's officers has or is expected in the future to have a
Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a
party to any contract or agreement which in the judgment of the Company's
officers has or is expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

filed all United States federal and state income and all other tax returns,
reports and declarations required byany jurisdiction to which it is subject
(unless and only to the extent that the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has
set aside on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all
unpaid and unreported taxes) and has paid all taxes and other governmental
assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be
due on such returns, reports and declarations, except those being contested in
good faith and has set aside on its books provision reasonably adequate for the
payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such
returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no unpaid taxes in any
material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction,
and the officers of the Company know of no basis for any such claim.
(t) Certain Transactions. Except as set forth in the SEC Documents filed
at least ten days prior to the date hereof and except for arm's length
transactions pursuant to which the Company makes payments in the ordinary course
of business upon terms no less favorable than the Company could obtain from
third parties and other than the grant of stock options disclosed in the SEC
Documents, none of the officers, directors, or employees of the Company is
presently a party to any transaction with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
(other than for services as employees, officers and directors), including any
contract, agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of
services to or by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from,
or otherwise requiring payments to or from any officer, director or such
employee or, to the knowledge of the Company, any corporation, partnership,
trust or other entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee has a
substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee or partner.
(u) Dilutive Effect. The Company understands and acknowledges that the
number of Shares issuable upon purchases pursuant to this Agreement will
increase in certain circumstances including, but not necessarily limited to, the
circumstance wherein the trading price of the Common Stock declines during the
period between the Effective Date and the end of the Open Period. The Company's
executive officers and directors have studied and fully understand the nature of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and recognize that they have a
potential dilutive effect. The Board of Directors of the Company has concluded,
in its good faith business judgment, that such issuance is in the best interests
of the Company. The Company specifically acknowledges that, subject to such
limitations as are expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents, its
obligation to issue Shares of Common Stock upon purchases pursuant to this
Agreement is absolute and unconditional regardless of the dilutive effect that
such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other shareholders of the
Company.
(v) Right of First Refusal. The Company shall not, directly or
indirectly, without the prior written consent of Investor offer, sell, grant any
option to purchase, or otherwise dispose of (or announce any offer, sale, grant
or any option to purchase or other disposition) any of its Common Stock or
securities convertible into Common Stock at a price that is less than the market
price of the Common Stock at the time of issuance of such security or investment
(a "Subsequent Financing") for a period of one year after the Effective Date,
except (i) the granting of options or warrants to employees, officers, directors
and consultants, and the issuance of Shares upon exercise of options granted,
under any stock option plan heretofore or hereafter duly adopted by the Company
or for services rendered or to be rendered; (ii) Shares issued upon exercise of
any currently outstanding warrants or options and upon conversion of any
currently outstanding convertible debenture or convertible preferred stock, in
each case disclosed pursuant to Section 4(c); (iii) securities issued in
connection with the capitalization or creation of a joint venture with a
strategic partner; (iv) Shares issued to pay part or all of the purchase price
for the acquisition by the Company of another entity (which, for purposes of
this clause (iv), shall not include an individual or group of individuals); and
(v) Shares issued in a bona fide public offering by the Company of its
securities, unless (A) the Company delivers to Investor a written notice (the
"Subsequent Financing Notice") of its intention to effect such Subsequent
Financing, which Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail
the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of proceeds intended
to be raised thereunder, the person with whom such Subsequent Financing shall be
effected, and attached to which shall be a term sheet
or similar document relating thereto; and (B) Investor shall not have notified
the Company by 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth Trading Day after its
receipt of the Subsequent Financing Notice of its willingness to provide,
subject to completion of mutually acceptable documentation, financing to the
Company on substantially the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice.
If Investor shall fail to notify the Company of its intention to enter into such
negotiations within such time period, then the Company may effect the Subsequent
Financing substantially upon the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing
Notice; provided that the Company shall provide Investor with a second
Subsequent Financing Notice, and Investor shall again have the right of first
refusal set forth above in this Section, if the Subsequent Financing subject to
the initial Subsequent Financing Notice shall not have been consummated for any
reason on the terms set forth in such Subsequent Financing Notice within thirty
Trading Days after the date of the initial Subsequent Financing Notice. The
rights granted to Investor in this Section are not subject to any prior right of
first refusal given to any other person disclosed on Schedule 4(c).

affiliates or other related parties to refrain from selling Common Stock during
each Pricing Period.

Agreement); or (ii) Investor becomes involved in any capacity in any action,
proceeding or investigation brought by the SEC against or involving the Company
or in connection with or as a result of the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents (other than as a result of a breach of

party, the Company will pay to Investor the charges, as reasonably determined by
Investor, for the time of any officers or employees of Investor devoted to
appearing and preparing to appear as witnesses, assisting in preparation for
hearings, trials or pretrial matters, or otherwise with respect to inquiries,

Agreement. The reimbursement obligations of the Company under this section shall

applicable Closing Date, the Investor purchases, in an open market transaction
or otherwise, the Company's Common Stock (the "Covering Shares") in order to
make delivery in satisfaction of a sale of Common Stock by the Investor (the
"Sold Shares"), which delivery such Investor anticipated to make using the
Shares represented by the Put Notice (a "Buy-In"), the Company shall pay to the
Investor the Buy-In Adjustment Amount (as defined below). The "Buy-In
Adjustment Amount" is the amount equal to the excess, if any, of (a) the

any) received by the Investor from the sale of the Sold Shares. The Company

total purchase price (including brokerage commissions) of $11,000 to cover a

improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and
consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by
mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under
this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient
service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed
to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.
If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity
or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the
validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other
jurisdiction.

the Transaction Documents, the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of its

defaulted, as the case may be. The Company shall pay all stamp and other taxes
and duties levied in connection with the issuance of any Securities.

identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same
agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each
party and delivered to the other party; provided that a facsimile signature
shall be considered due execution and shall be binding upon the signatory
thereto with the same force and effect as if the signature were an original, not
a facsimile signature.

convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the
interpretation of, this Agreement. Whenever required by the context of this
Agreement, the singular shall include the plural and masculine shall include the
feminine.
(e) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that

Agreement in any other jurisdiction.

prior oral or written agreements between the Investor, the Company, their
affiliates and persons acting on their behalf with respect to the matters
discussed herein, and this Agreement and the instruments referenced herein
(including the other Transaction Documents) contain the entire understanding of
the parties with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except

Investor makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with
respect to such matters. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other
than by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Investor, and no
provision hereof may be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by
the party against whom enforcement is sought.

(k) Publicity. The Company and Investor shall consult with each other in
issuing any press releases or otherwise making public statements with respect to
the transactions contemplated hereby and no party shall issue any such press
release or otherwise make any such public statement without the prior written
consent of the other parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed, except that no prior consent shall be required if such disclosure is
required by law, in which such case the disclosing party shall provide the other
parties with prior notice of such public statement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of Investor without
the prior written consent of such Investor, except to the extent required by
law. Investor acknowledges that this Agreement and all or part of the
Transaction Documents may be deemed to be "material contracts" as that term is
defined by Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-B, and that the Company may therefore
be required to file such documents as exhibits to reports or registration
statements filed under the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act. Investor further agrees
that the status of such documents and materials as material contracts shall be
determined solely by the Company, in consultation with its counsel.
(l) Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be
done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and

accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby.

Corporation, ("Charleston") a registered broker dealer, $10,000. The $10,000
shall be payable from 1% (one percent) of the Put Amount on each draw toward the
fee. Charleston Capital Corporation will also act as an unaffiliated broker
dealer. The Investor shall have no obligation with respect to any fees or with
respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other persons or entities for fees
of a type contemplated in this Section that may be due in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company shall
indemnify and hold harmless the Investor, their employees, officers, directors,
agents, and partners, and their respective affiliates, from and against all
claims, losses, damages, costs (including the costs of preparation and
attorney's fees) and expenses incurred in respect of any such claimed or
existing fees, as such fees and expenses are incurred.
(n) No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be
deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent,
and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.
(o) Remedies. The Investor and each holder of the Shares shall have all
rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement and the Registration Rights
Agreement and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at
any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such
holders have under any law. Any person having any rights under any provision of
this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without
posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any default
or breach of any provision of this Agreement, including the recovery of
reasonable attorneys fees and costs, and to exercise all other rights granted by
law.
(p) Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or
payments to the Investor hereunder or the Registration Rights Agreement or the
Investor enforces or exercises its rights hereunder or thereunder, and such
payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part
thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential,
set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid
or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other person
under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or
federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any
such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be
satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such
payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
(q) Pricing of Common Stock. For purposes of this Agreement, the bid
price of the Common Stock in this Agreement shall be as reported on
