RECITALS
A. The Company and Oxford Finance Corporation and Horizon Technology Finance Corporation (collectively the “Lenders”) have entered into that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of March 18, 2011 (the “Loan Agreement”) pursuant to which Lenders are providing a credit facility to the Company.

B. The parties desire to amend the Rights Agreement to grant to Lender “piggyback” registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.
C. Pursuant to Section 1.12 of the Rights Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Holders (as defined therein) of a majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company which would grant such holder certain registration rights.
D. Pursuant to Section 3.4 of the Rights Agreement, the Rights Agreement may be amended only with the written consent of the Company and the holders of at least 70% of the Registrable Securities then outstanding.
E. The parties hereto desire to enter into this Amendment in accordance with Sections 1.12 and 3.4 of the Rights Agreement.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants set forth herein, the Company and the Requisite Holders hereby agree that the Rights Agreement shall be amended, and further agree as follows:
1. Agreement to be Bound. The Lenders, the Company and the Requisite Holders hereby agree that by executing and delivering this Amendment, the Lenders are hereby added as
parties to the Rights Agreement, and each Lender agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Rights Agreement.
2. Definition of Registrable Securities. Section 1.1(l) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“(l) The term “Registrable Securities” means (i) (a) the shares of Common Stock issuable or issued upon conversion of the Preferred Stock held by the Investors and (b) solely for purposes of Sections 1.3, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 1.11, 1.13, and 1.14 of the Agreement, the shares of Common Stock issuable or issued upon exercise of warrants issued to Oxford Finance Corporation and Horizon Technology Finance Corporation; provided that shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of Series D Preferred Stock, upon conversion of Series E Preferred Stock issued upon exercise of warrants held by Lighthouse Capital Partners V, LP or its affiliates or Common Stock issued upon exercise of warrants held by Oxford Finance Corporation and Horizon Technology Finance Corporation or their respective affiliates shall not be Registrable Securities for the purposes of Section 2 hereunder, and (ii) any other shares of Common Stock of the Company issued as (or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of any warrant, right or other security which is issued as) a dividend or other distribution with respect to, or in exchange for or in replacement of, the shares listed in clause (i) and this clause (ii); provided, however, that the foregoing definition shall exclude in all cases any Registrable Securities sold by a Holder in a transaction in which its rights under this Agreement are not assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, securities shall only be treated as Registrable Securities if and so long as they have not been (A) sold to or through a broker or dealer or underwriter in a public distribution or a public securities transaction, or (B) sold in a transaction exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(1) thereof so that all transfer restrictions, and restrictive legends with respect thereto, if any, are removed upon the consummation of such sale.”
