the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf, directly or indirectly, has or will

or sale of any of the Shares and the Warrants.
(z) Governmental
Approvals. Except for the filing of any notice prior or
subsequent to the Closing Date that may be required under applicable state
and/or Federal securities laws (which if required, shall be filed on a timely

(cc) No
Integrated Offering. Neither the Company, nor any of its
affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has directly or
indirectly made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to
buy any security under circumstances that would cause the offering of the
securities pursuant to this Agreement to be integrated with prior
offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act which would prevent
the Company from selling the securities pursuant to Rule 506 under the
Securities Act, or any applicable exchange-related stockholder approval
provisions, nor will the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries take
any action or steps that would cause the offering of the Shares to be integrated
with other offerings. The Company does not have any registration
statement pending before the Commission or currently under the Commission’s
review.
(dd) Independent Nature of
Subscribers. The Company acknowledges that the obligations of
each Subscriber under this Agreement and the other transaction documents are
several and not joint with the obligations of any other Subscriber, and no
Subscriber shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the
obligations of any other Subscriber under the transaction
documents. The Company acknowledges that the decision of each
Subscriber to purchase securities pursuant to this Agreement has been made by
such Subscriber independently of any other purchase and independently of any
information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs,

(financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or of its Subsidiaries
which may have made or given by any other Subscriber or by any agent or employee
of any other Subscriber, and no Subscriber or any of its agents or employees
shall have any liability to any Subscriber (or any other person) relating to or
arising from any such information, materials, statements or
opinions. The Company acknowledges that nothing contained herein and
no action taken by any Subscriber pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to
constitute the Subscribers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or
any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Subscribers are in
any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.
(ee) Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements. There is no transaction, arrangement, or other
relationship between the Company and an unconsolidated or other off balance
sheet entity that is not disclosed in its Financial Statements that should be
disclosed in accordance with GAAP and that would be reasonably likely to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

Practices. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, nor to the
knowledge of the Company, any agent or other person acting on behalf of the
Company or any Subsidiary, has (i) directly or indirectly, used any corporate

expenses related to foreign or domestic political activity, (ii) made any
unlawful payment to foreign or domestic government officials or employees or to

reporting company, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to

required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise make any
delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document; provided that a Subscriber and its pledgee shall be required to comply

expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and
disbursements) incurred by the Subscribers as a result of any inaccuracy in or
breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by the Company
herein as such are incurred, except to the extent that such amounts result

This
sum is comprised of two items – the first is 248,687 warrants owed to
previous investors. The second is the Company entered into a six month
financial and strategic consulting agreement dated September 1, 2005 with
a financial consulting company. (“Consulting Company”) by which the
Consulting Company was to provide the Company with consulting services and
assist it in the procurement of equity and debt financing for business
expansion and development up to a maximum of $20,000,000. The
Consulting Company is not a license broker-dealer. In exchange for these
services, two of the shareholders of the Company assigned their
Convertible Notes Receivable, valued at $627,723, to the Consulting
Company. Per the terms of the Consulting Agreement and its
related documents, one half of the first note became vested in the
Consulting Company upon the execution of the Consulting Agreement which by
the terms of the Agreement resulted in $156,930 of said first note being
subject to conversion into the Company’s common stock at the rate of one
share per $.10 of note balance. In addition, the agreement
states that an additional $156,931 would be potentially eligible for
conversion upon the Company raising $1,000,000 in financing from any
source during the term of the Consulting Agreement. Conversion rights were
subject to pro rata vesting based on the funding secured. For
financial presentation purposes, the Company has accounted for this
transaction as a capital contribution by the stockholders of $627,723 for
the forgiveness of their notes and as consulting expense for equity given
to the Consulting Company. During the year ended December 31,
2005, the Company received funding of $599,972 in the form of bridge
loans. On December 23, 2005 the Company terminated the
Consulting Agreement subject to the provisions thereof. The
Company has no further obligations of any nature to the Consulting Company
for lack of performance by the Consulting Company. The shares to which
this note may be converted - 2,338,954 are included in the above table
even though the note balance has not been converted. In addition, the
shareholder of second note may contend, and has a possibility of being
successful, in having the amendment and assignment declared void requiring
his note be reinstated on the Company’s books. The shares
associated with this note are included in the Fully Diluted totals
presented above. The accounting entries made by the Company with regard to
the first note are not to be construed as a waiver of any rights the
Company may have in law or equity under the consulting agreement or any
agreements related thereto, nor as an admission, of an nature, by the
Company.
