(cc) ERISA. No liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation has been incurred with respect to any Plan by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which is or would be materially adverse to the Company and its Subsidiaries. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the issuance and sale of the Securities will not involve any transaction which is subject to the prohibitions of Section 406 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") or in connection with which a tax could be imposed 14 pursuant to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, provided that, if any of the Purchasers, or any person or entity that owns a beneficial interest in any of the Purchasers, is an "employee pension benefit plan" (within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA) with respect to which the Company is a "party in interest" (within the meaning of Section 3(14) of ERISA), the requirements of Sections 407(d)(5) and 408(e) of ERISA, if applicable, are met.

(dd) Independent Nature of Purchasers. The Company acknowledges that the obligations of each Purchaser under the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under the Transaction Documents and the Company shall not be excused from performance of its obligations to any Purchaser under the Transaction Documents as a result of nonperformance or breach by any other Purchaser. The Company acknowledges that the decision of each Purchaser to purchase Securities pursuant to this Agreement has been made by such Purchaser independently of any other purchaser and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or of its Subsidiaries which may have made or given by any other Purchaser or by any agent or employee of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser or any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any Purchaser (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. The Company acknowledges that nothing contained herein, or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges that each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that for reasons of administrative convenience only, the Transaction Documents have been prepared by counsel for one of the Purchasers and such counsel does not represent all of the Purchasers but only such Purchaser and the other Purchasers have retained their own individual counsel with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company acknowledges that it has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by the Purchasers. The Company acknowledges that such procedure with respect to the Transaction Documents in no way creates a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. (ee) Suppliers and Customers. 15 (i) Schedule 2.1(ee)(i) attached hereto accurately sets forth a list of the top five suppliers of goods or services in terms of the aggregate purchases by the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 and the nine (9) months ended September 30, 2004, showing the aggregate amount which the Company paid to each such supplier during such periods. The relationships of the Company with its suppliers are good commercial working relationships. The Company is not in default of nor has the Company breached any agreement with any such supplier. No such supplier has terminated or threatened to terminate, its relationship with the Company or has during the last twelve (12) months materially decreased, limited, or changed the terms and conditions for, the supply of its goods or services to the Company, or threatened to do so, nor does the Company know of any written or oral communication, fact, event or action which exists or has occurred which would indicate that any supplier of the Company would do so, whether as a result of the transaction contemplated hereby or otherwise. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(ee)(i), no supplier for the Company is a sole source of supply of any good or service to the Company. (ii) Schedule 2.1(ee)(ii) attached hereto accurately sets forth a list of the top five customers of the Company by revenue for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 and the nine (9) months ended September 30, 2004, showing the approximate aggregate revenues of the Company from each such customer during such periods.

No such customer has terminated or threatened to terminate, its relationship with the Company or has during the last twelve (12) months materially decreased, limited or otherwise changed the terms and conditions for, the purchase of goods or services from the Company, or threatened to do so, nor does the Company know of any written or oral communication, fact, event or action which exists or has occurred which would indicate that any customer of the Company would do so, whether as a result of the transaction contemplated hereby or otherwise. (ff) Anti-takeover Device. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has any outstanding shareholder rights plan or "poison pill" or any similar arrangement. There are no provisions of any anti-takeover or business combination statute applicable to the Company, the Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws which would preclude the issuance and sale of the Securities, the reservation for issuance of the Warrant Shares and the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents. (gg) 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 Regulation D and Rule 506 thereof 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 Securities to be integrated with other offerings if such other offering, if integrated, would cause the offer and sale of the Securities not to be exempt from registration pursuant to Regulation D and Rule 506 thereof under the Securities Act. The Company does not have any registration 16 statement pending before the Commission or currently under the Commission's review and except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(gg) hereto, since September 1, 2004, the Company has not offered or sold any of its equity securities or debt securities convertible into shares of Common Stock.

When executed and delivered by the Purchasers, the other Transaction Documents shall constitute valid and binding obligations of such Purchaser enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with their terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship, receivership or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditor's rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application.

The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by such Purchaser and the consummation by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated thereby and hereby do not and will not (i) violate any provision of such Purchaser's charter or organizational documents, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an 17 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 such Purchaser is a party or by which such Purchaser's respective properties or assets are bound, or (iii) 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 such Purchaser or by which any property or asset of such Purchaser are bound or affected, except, in all cases, other than violations pursuant to clauses (i) or (iii) (with respect to federal and state securities laws) above, for such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, accelerations, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely affect such Purchaser's ability to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents. (d) Acquisition for Investment. Such Purchaser is purchasing the Shares and Warrants and will purchase any Warrant Shares solely for its own account for the purpose of investment and not with a view to or for sale in connection with distribution. Such Purchaser does not have a present intention to sell any of the Shares, Warrants or Warrant Shares, nor a present arrangement (whether or not legally binding) or intention to effect any distribution of any of the Shares, the Warrants or the Warrant Shares to or through any person or entity; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, such Purchaser does not agree to hold the Shares, the Warrants or the Warrant Shares for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Shares, the Warrants or the Warrant Shares at any time in accordance with Federal and state securities laws applicable to such disposition.

Such Purchaser acknowledges that such person is familiar with Rule 144 of the rules and regulations of the Commission, as amended, promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act ("Rule 144"), 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. (f) General. Such 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 such Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of such Purchaser to acquire the Securities. Such Purchaser understands that no 18 United States federal or state agency or any government or governmental agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities. (g) No General Solicitation. Such Purchaser acknowledges that the Securities were not offered to such 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.

Such Purchaser is an "accredited investor" (as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D), and such 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. Such Purchaser is not required to be registered as a broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act and such Purchaser is not a broker-dealer. Such Purchaser acknowledges that an investment in the Securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Such Purchaser has completed or caused to be completed the Investor Questionnaire Certification attached hereto as Exhibit F certifying as to its status as an "accredited investor" and understands that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of such information set forth therein to determine the suitability of such Purchaser to acquire the Securities.

(k) No Shorting. No Purchaser has engaged in any short sales of the Common Stock or instructed any third parties to engage in any short sales of the Common Stock on its behalf prior to the Closing Date. Each Purchaser covenants and agrees that it will not be in a net short position with respect to the shares of Common Stock. For purposes of this Section 2.2(k), a "net short position" means a sale of Common Stock by a Purchaser that is marked as a short sale and that is made at a time when there is no equivalent offsetting long position in Common Stock held by such Purchaser. 19 ARTICLE III COVENANTS The Company covenants with each Purchaser as follows, which covenants are for the benefit of each Purchaser and their respective permitted assignees.

The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. Section 3.13 Form D. The Company agrees to file a Form D with respect to the Securities as required by Rule 506 under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to the Purchasers promptly after such filing. Section 3.14 No Integrated Offerings. The Company shall not make any offers or sales of any security (other than the Securities being offered or sold hereunder) under circumstances that would require registration of the Securities being offered or sold hereunder under the Securities Act. Section 3.15 Pledge of Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Securities may be pledged by a Purchaser in connection with a bona fide margin agreement or other loan or financing arrangement that is secured by the Common Stock. The pledge of Common Stock shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Common Stock hereunder, and no Purchaser effecting a pledge of Common Stock shall be 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 Purchaser and its pledgee shall be required to comply with the provisions of Article V hereof in order to effect a sale, transfer or assignment of Common Stock to such pledgee. At the Purchasers' expense, the Company hereby agrees to execute and deliver such documentation as a pledgee of the Common Stock may reasonably request in connection with a pledge of the Common Stock to such pledgee by a Purchaser. Section 3.16 Subsequent Financings; Right of First Refusal; Other Restrictive Covenants. (a) For a period of one (1) year following the Closing Date and so long as Sharad Tak or his designees collectively beneficially own at least fifty percent (50%) of the Shares purchased by such Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, the Company covenants and agrees to promptly notify (in no event later than five (5) trading days after making or receiving an applicable offer) in writing (a "Rights Notice") the Purchasers of the terms and conditions of any proposed offer or sale to, or exchange with (or other type of distribution to) any third party (a "Subsequent Financing"), of any Common Stock or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable into Common Stock, including convertible preferred and debt securities 22 (collectively, the "Financing Securities"). The Rights Notice shall describe, in reasonable detail, the proposed Subsequent Financing, the proposed closing date of the Subsequent Financing, which shall not be sooner than twenty (20) calendar days from the date the Rights Notice is given nor later than forty five (45) calendar days from the date the Rights Notice is given, including, without limitation, all of the material terms and conditions thereof and proposed definitive documentation to be entered into in connection therewith. The Rights Notice shall provide each Purchaser an option (the "Rights Option") during the five (5) trading days following delivery of the Rights Notice (the "Option Period") to purchase up to its "pro rata" portion, on a basis with all Other Purchasers (as defined below), of the securities being offered in such Subsequent Financing on the same terms and conditions as contemplated by such Subsequent Financing (the "First Refusal Rights"). If any Purchaser or Other Purchaser elects not to participate in such Subsequent Financing, the other Purchasers may participate on a pro-rata basis so long as such participation in the aggregate does not exceed the total Purchase Price hereunder plus the total purchase price pursuant to the Other Purchase Agreements (as defined below). For purposes of this Section, all references to "pro rata" means, for any Purchaser electing to participate in such Subsequent Financing, the percentage obtained by dividing (x) the total number of Shares purchased by such Purchaser at the Closing by (y) the total number of Shares purchased by all of the participating Purchasers at the Closing plus the total number of shares of Common Stock (or the number of shares of Common Stock into which any convertible securities are convertible into) purchased by the participating Other Purchasers pursuant to the Other Purchase Agreements. Delivery of any Rights Notice constitutes a representation and warranty by the Company that there are no other material terms and conditions, arrangements, agreements or otherwise except for those disclosed in the Rights Notice, to provide additional compensation to any party participating in any proposed Subsequent Financing, including, but not limited to, additional compensation based on changes in the Purchase Price or any type of reset or adjustment of a purchase or conversion price or to issue additional securities at any time after the closing date of a Subsequent Financing. If the Company does not receive notice of exercise of the Rights Option from any of the Purchasers or Other Purchasers within the Option Period, the Company shall have the right to close the Subsequent Financing on the scheduled closing date with a third party (and, if applicable, with such Purchasers and Other Purchasers as shall have exercised their Rights Option); provided that all of the material terms and conditions of the closing are the same as those provided to the Purchasers and Other Purchasers in the Rights Notice. If the closing of the proposed Subsequent Financing does not occur within forty-five (45) days from the date the Rights Notice is given, any closing of the contemplated Subsequent Financing or any other Subsequent Financing shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Section, including, without limitation, the delivery of a new Rights Notice. For purposes hereof, "Other Purchasers" shall mean the other purchasers of equity securities of the Company that have rights similar to the rights contained in this Section 3.16(a) pursuant to the purchase agreements ("Other Purchase Agreements") entered into among the Company and the Other Purchasers. (b) For purposes of this Agreement, a Permitted Financing (as defined hereinafter) shall not be considered a Subsequent Financing. A "Permitted Financing" shall mean (1) securities issued (other than for cash) in connection with a merger, acquisition, or consolidation, (2) securities issued pursuant to a bona fide firm underwritten public offering of the Company's securities, (3) securities issued pursuant to the conversion or exercise of convertible or exercisable securities issued or outstanding on or prior to the date hereof or 23 issued pursuant to this Agreement, (4) the Warrant Shares, (5) securities issued in connection with bona fide strategic alliances or other partnering arrangements so long as such issuances are not for the purpose of raising capital, (6) Common Stock issued or options to purchase Common Stock granted or issued pursuant to the Company's stock option plans and employee stock purchase plans as they now exist (7) any warrants issued to the placement agent for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or for other financial advisory services rendered to the Company and (8) the issuance of up to $2,000,000 of shares of Common Stock on terms substantially similar to the terms of this Agreement to be consummated within one hundred twenty (120) days of the Closing Date (the "Subsequent Common Stock Financing"); provided, however, if the price per share of Common Stock issued in the Subsequent Common Stock Financing is less than the Per Share Purchase Price, the Company shall promptly issue additional shares of Common Stock to Sharad Tak or his designees in an amount equal to (A) the number of shares of Common Stock such Purchaser would have purchased pursuant to this Agreement based upon such Purchaser's portion of the Purchase Price at the price per share of Common Stock issued in the Subsequent Common Stock Financing, minus (B) the number of shares of Common Stock purchased by such Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement. (c) For a period of one (1) year following the Closing Date and so long as Sharad Tak or his designees collectively beneficially own at least fifty percent (50%) of the Shares purchased by such Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote or consent of Sharad Tak and stockholders owning at least ten percent (10%) of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding at such time (including any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of outstanding preferred stock of the Company): (i) effect a sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company, a consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Company with or into another entity or any other type of change of control transaction; (ii) repurchase any of the Company's outstanding shares of capital stock; or (iii) enter into any contracts relating to the Company's initiatives requiring outsourcing activities.

The Company acknowledges its understanding that Sharad Tak is acting independently and solely on his own behalf and not in conjunction with any other Purchaser. The Company shall provide Sharad Tak or his designee with such notice as is given to the other directors of the Company, but in no case less than forty-eight (48) hours prior written notice of any meetings of the Company's Board of Directors. Sharad Tak and/or his designee may elect in such person's sole discretion to attend such meetings of the Company's Board of Directors. 24 Section 3.18 Reverse Stock Split. The Company shall seek stockholder approval at its next annual or special meeting of stockholders to approve a reverse stock split of the Common Stock in a ratio to be determined by the Company (the "Reverse Stock Split").

SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED. The Company agrees to reissue certificates representing any of the Shares and the Warrant Shares, without the legend set forth above if at such time, prior to making any transfer of any such Shares or Warrant Shares, such holder thereof shall give written notice to the Company describing the manner and terms of such transfer and removal as the Company may reasonably request. Such proposed transfer and removal will not be effected until: (a) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that the registration of the Shares or Warrant Shares under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such proposed transfer, (ii) a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Company with the Commission and has become and remains effective under the Securities Act, (iii) the Company has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such registration and qualification under the Securities Act and state securities laws are not required, or (iv) the holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; and (b) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that registration or qualification under the securities or "blue sky" laws of any state is not required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii) compliance with applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws has been effected or a valid exemption exists with respect thereto. The Company will respond to any such notice from a holder within five (5) business days. In the case of any proposed transfer under this Section 5.1, the Company will use reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws, but shall in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do business in any state where it is not then qualified, or (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to the general service of process in any state where it is not then subject. The restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 5.1 shall be in addition to, and not by way of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer contained in any other section of this Agreement. Whenever a certificate representing the Shares or Warrant Shares is required to be issued to a Purchaser without a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Shares or Warrant 29 Shares, provided the Company's transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Shares or Warrant Shares to a Purchaser by crediting the account of such Purchaser's Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission ("DWAC") system (to the extent not inconsistent with any provisions of this Agreement). ARTICLE VI INDEMNIFICATION Section 6.1 General Indemnity. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchasers (and their respective directors, officers, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Purchasers and their directors, officers, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns as a result of any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by the Company herein. Each Purchaser severally but not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors, officers, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Company and its directors, officers, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns as a direct result of any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by such Purchaser herein. The maximum aggregate liability of each Purchaser pursuant to its indemnification obligations under this Article VI shall not exceed the portion of the Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser hereunder. Section 6.2 Indemnification Procedure. Any party entitled to indemnification under this Article VI (an "indemnified party") will give written notice to the indemnifying party of any matters giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Article VI except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any such action, proceeding or claim is brought against an indemnified party in respect of which indemnification is sought hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, unless in the reasonable judgment of the indemnifying party a conflict of interest between it and the indemnified party exists with respect to such action, proceeding or claim (in which case the indemnifying party shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel for the indemnified parties), to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. In the event that the indemnifying party advises an indemnified party that it will not contest such a claim for indemnification hereunder, or fails, within thirty (30) days of receipt of any indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such person of its election to defend, settle or compromise, at its sole cost and expense, any action, proceeding or claim (or discontinues its defense at any time after it commences such defense), then the indemnified party may, at its option, defend, settle or otherwise compromise or pay such action or claim. In any event, unless and until the indemnifying party elects in writing to assume and does so assume the defense of 30 any such claim, proceeding or action, the indemnified party's costs and expenses arising out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, claim or proceeding shall be losses subject to indemnification hereunder. The indemnified party shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the indemnified party which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the indemnified party fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. If the indemnifying party elects to defend any such action or claim, then the indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in such defense with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI to the contrary, the indemnifying party shall not, without the indemnified party's prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof which imposes any future obligation on the indemnified party or which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim. The indemnification required by this Article VI shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred, so long as the indemnified party irrevocably agrees to refund such moneys if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such party was not entitled to indemnification. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or similar rights of the indemnified party against the indemnifying party or others, and (b) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

Any capitalized term used herein and not defined herein shall have the meaning given to such term in the Agreement. This opinion is being delivered pursuant to Section 4.2(f) of the Agreement. In connection with this opinion letter, we have examined the following documents: (a) The Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws of the Company; (b) Resolutions of the Company's Board of Directors dated April ___, 2005 relating to and approving the Transaction Documents (as hereinafter defined), certified by the Secretary of the Company pursuant to a certificate dated April __, 2005; (c) A certificate of the Secretary of State of Delaware regarding the good standing of the Company; (d) Certificates of one or more officers of the Company as to certain factual matters; (e) The Agreement; (f) The Lock-Up Agreement; (g) The Certificate of Designation; (h) The Registration Rights Agreement; and (i) The Warrants (the Agreement, the Lock-Up Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Warrants being referred to herein collectively as the "Transaction Documents"). 8 We also have examined such other certificates, agreements, instruments and documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate in order to render the opinions set forth herein, and we have relied on such certificates of government officials as we have deemed appropriate. We have relied completely on the foregoing documents and such other documents as referred to in this letter as to all matters of fact and conclusions covered therein, and we have not undertaken any independent verification or investigation of such factual matters. For the purpose of this opinion, we have assumed the following: (i) the genuineness of all signatures on the Agreement on behalf of the parties thereto (except for those of officers of the Company); (ii) the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to as certified, conformed, photostatic, electronic or facsimile copies; and (iii) that the facts set forth in all certificates referred to in this opinion are accurate and complete in all respects. We have further assumed: (a) that each of the parties (other than the Company) to the Agreement has the corporate or other power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Agreement, has all necessary governmental or other consents and authorizations to enter into and perform their respective obligations thereunder and to effect the transactions required of each of them thereby, and has taken all necessary corporate or other action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of their respective obligations under the Agreement; and (b) that the Agreement and the other Transaction Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the parties thereto (other than the Company) by themselves or their respective duly authorized representatives acting within the scope of their respective authorities in accordance with applicable law, and that the Agreement and the other Transaction Documents constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the respective parties enforceable against such parties in accordance with their terms. Based upon the foregoing, and further subject to the assumptions, qualifications and exceptions set forth below, we hereby advise you that in our opinion: 1. The Company is a corporation 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 carry on its business as presently conducted. The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in every state in which the failure to so qualify would have a Material Adverse Effect. 2. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents and to issue the Shares and the Warrants. The execution, delivery and performance of each 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. Each of the 9 Transaction Documents has been duly executed and delivered and each of the Transaction Documents constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its respective terms. The Shares are not subject to any preemptive rights under the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws. 3. The Shares and the Warrants have been duly authorized by all corporate action on the part of the Company and, the Shares when delivered against payment in full as provided in the Purchase Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants have been duly authorized by all corporate action on the part of the Company and reserved for issuance, and when delivered against payment in full as provided in the Warrants, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. 4. The execution, delivery and performance of and compliance with the terms of the Transaction Documents and the issuance of the Shares and the Warrants do not (a) subject to receipt of approval of the Series F stockholders, violate any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, (b) 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 material agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement, instrument or obligation to which the Company is a party and which is attached as an exhibit to the Company's Form 10K for the year ending December 31, 2004, (c) create or impose a lien, charge or encumbrance on any property of the Company under any agreement or any commitment known to us to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or by which any of its respective properties or assets are bound, or (d) result in a violation of any federal or state statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction or decree known to us (excluding 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 clauses (a) and (d) above, for such conflicts, default, terminations, amendments, acceleration, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. 5. Other than receipt of the approval of the Series F stockholders, no consent, approval or authorization of or designation, declaration or filing with any governmental authority on the part of the Company is required under federal or state law, rule or regulation in connection with the valid execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents, or the offer, sale or issuance of the Shares and the Warrants other than filings as may be required by applicable federal and state securities laws. 6. To our knowledge, there is no action, suit, claim, investigation or proceeding pending or threatened against the Company which questions the validity of the Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby or any action taken or to be taken pursuant thereto. To our knowledge, there is no action, suit, claim, investigation or proceeding pending, or threatened, against or involving the Company or any of its properties or assets and which, if adversely determined, would result in a Material Adverse Effect. 10 7. On the assumption that the representations, warranties and covenants of the Purchasers contained in the Agreement are true and complete, the issuance and sale of the Shares and the Warrants under the Transaction Documents are exempt from the registration requirements of section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. 8. The Company is not, and as a result of and immediately upon Closing will not be, an "investment company" or a company "controlled" by an "investment company," within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The words "our knowledge," as used above, signify the actual knowledge that any such opinion is not accurate or that any of the documents, certificates, reports, or information on which we have relied is not accurate and complete. We have undertaken no independent investigations or verifications and have performed no independent due diligence other than an examination of the Transaction Documents. The words "our knowledge" and "our attention" are intended to be limited to the knowledge of the lawyers within our firm who we reasonably believe have knowledge of certain of the affairs of the Company through their representation of the Company: Kathleen O'Brien, Joseph T. Stapleton and Christopher A Young. The foregoing opinions are rendered only to the Purchasers and are intended solely for the Purchasers' benefit in connection with the transaction described above. These opinions may not be quoted or furnished to or relied upon by such addressee or any other person or entity for any other purpose without our prior written consent. We are not assuming any professional responsibility to any other person by rendering these opinions. The foregoing opinions are given as of the date hereof and no opinion is expressed as to the effect of any amendment to any of the documents mentioned herein or any change in fact, circumstance or law. We disclaim any responsibility to inform the addressee hereof or any other entity of any such amendment or change that may come to our attention. The foregoing opinions are subject to (i) the exercise of judicial discretion in accordance with general principles of equity (whether applied by a court of law or by a court of equity); (ii) a finding by a court having jurisdiction that the enforcement of a particular provision or remedy would be contrary to public policy; (iii) the valid exercise of the constitutional powers of the United States of America and the sovereign police and taxing powers of any state or other governmental units having jurisdiction. The opinions given above are further subject to (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or transfer and other laws and decisions relating to or affecting debtor's obligations or creditors' rights, whether now or hereafter in effect, and (b) general principles of equity (whether enforcement is sought at law or in equity), including, without limitation, requirements that parties to agreements act reasonably, in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner and give reasonable notice prior to exercising rights and remedies, all to the extent required by applicable law, and limitations on the ability of a party to accelerate the due date of any payments due or to exercise other remedies available to it on the occurrence of a non-material breach of an agreement. We express no opinion with respect to federal or state securities laws, rules or regulations other than as expressly set forth herein. We express no opinion as to any waivers, indemnities or powers of attorney in the Transaction Documents. The enforceability of certain of the remedial, waiver and other provisions of the Transaction Documents may be 11 further subject to the exercise of judicial discretion. We express no opinion on the enforceability of any provisions in the Transaction Documents relating to conflicts of law, consent to jurisdiction, choice of forum, choice of law or waiver of trial by jury. We express no opinion on the effect on the Transaction Documents or any of the opinions set forth above of any documents which we have not reviewed. Our opinion is subject to judicial decisions which indicate that public policy may render unenforceable provisions respecting payment of costs and expenses of enforcement, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees. We express no opinion on compliance with fiduciary duty requirements. We express no opinion with respect to the statutes, ordinances, administrative decisions, rules and regulations, or other laws (collectively, "Local Laws") of counties, towns, municipalities and special political subdivisions (whether created or enabled through legislative action at the federal, state or regional level) and judicial decisions to the extent that they deal with any such Local Laws. Our opinions as to enforceability are subject to the effect of generally applicable rules of law that (i) may, where less than all of a contract may be unenforceable, limit the enforceability of the balance of the contract to circumstances in which the unenforceable portion is not an essential part of the agreed exchange, or that permit a court to reserve to itself a decision as to whether any provision of any agreement is severable and (ii) limit the availability of a remedy under certain circumstances when another remedy has been elected. We are members of the bar of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and do not purport to be experts respecting, and do not express any opinions herein concerning, any laws other than the existing substantive laws of Pennsylvania, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the federal law of the United States of America.
