(i)  Within fourteen (14) days following the latest of the date of Shareholder Approval and Listing Approval (as such terms are defined below), Eagle shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2(e), issue and deliver to Tail Wind a number of shares of Common Stock (“Shares”, and together with the Conversion Shares, the “Settlement Shares”) determined by dividing the Share Amount by the closing price (“FMV”) of the Common Stock on the Principal Market (as defined in the Convertible Notes) on the Trading Day (as defined in the Convertible Notes) immediately preceding the date of issuance of such Shares (“Issuance Date”). Such Shares shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and free and clear of all encumbrances and restrictions (except for restrictions on resale under applicable securities laws).
 
(ii)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of shares of Common Stock that shall be issued to Tail Wind under this Section 2(e) shall not exceed a number that, when added to the total number of shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned by Tail Wind (other than by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities (including under the Convertible Notes) that have limitations on Tail Wind’s right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein), together with all shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned at such time (other than by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities that have limitations on the right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein) by Tail Wind’s “affiliates” at such time (as defined in Rule 144 of the Securities Act) that would be aggregated for purposes of determining whether a group under Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended (“Exchange Act”), exists, would exceed 9.9% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock on the Issuance Date (the “Restricted Ownership Percentage”). To the extent any portion of the Share Amount cannot be paid in Shares as a result of application of the Restricted Ownership Percentage, such unpaid portion of the Share Amount shall be automatically added to the original principal amount of the Convertible A Note as of the Issuance Date.
 
(iii)  In the event that Tail Wind has not received all the Shares in its brokerage account (whether due to the failure to obtain Shareholder Approval, Listing Approval or otherwise) by June 20, 2006, Eagle shall on such date make a cash payment to Tail Wind of $250,000 by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by Tail Wind, and the Share Amount shall contemporaneously be reduced by such amount paid.
 
(iv)  In the event that Tail Wind has not received all the Shares in its brokerage account (whether due to the failure to obtain Shareholder Approval, Listing Approval or otherwise) by August 20, 2006, Eagle shall on such date make an additional cash payment to Tail Wind of $250,000 by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by Tail Wind, and the Share Amount shall contemporaneously be reduced by such additional amount paid.

(vi)  In the event that Tail Wind has not received all the Shares in its brokerage account (whether due to the failure to obtain Shareholder Approval, Listing Approval or otherwise) by December 20, 2006, then (A) Eagle shall on such date make an additional cash payment to Tail Wind of $250,000 by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by Tail Wind, and the Share Amount shall contemporaneously be reduced by such additional amount paid, and (B) the Share Amount shall be automatically added to the original principal amount under the Convertible A Note as of such date.
 
(vii)  If any Bankruptcy Event (as defined in the Convertible Note) occurs prior to the issuance of the Shares, the Share Amount shall automatically, immediately prior to such occurrence, be converted to a debt obligation payable in cash and added to the original principal amount of the Convertible A Note.
 
(viii)  If the closing price of the Common Stock on the Principal Market on the Registration Effectiveness Date (as defined below) is less than the FMV as of the Issuance Date, then the Price Reduction Amount (as defined below) shall be automatically added to the original principal amount under the Convertible B Note as of such Registration Effectiveness Date. The “Price Reduction Amount” shall mean the product of (A) the number of Shares issued multiplied by (B) the difference between the closing price of the Common Stock on the Principal Market on the Registration Effectiveness Date and the FMV as of the Issuance Date.
 
(ix)  Eagle shall deliver to Tail Wind one or more stock certificates evidencing the Shares within three (3) Trading Days following the Issuance Date, and Eagle shall deliver to Tail Wind each $250,000 payment required under clauses (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) above within three (3) Trading Days following June 20, 2006, August 20, 2006, October 20, 2006 and December 20, 2006, respectively. If Eagle fails to deliver such stock certificates or any such payment within five days following such third Trading Day, Tail Wind may declare upon written notice (as set forth in Section 14(f) below) the entire then outstanding Share Amount to be due and payable immediately. At any time following such notice of acceleration, Tail Wind shall be entitled (i) to complete (by filling in the appropriate accelerated amount) the relevant affidavit for judgment by confession delivered by Eagle pursuant to Section 6(c)(vii) of this Agreement and (ii) to file such completed affidavit, with any other appropriate material, in New York County, New York, in the manner necessary to effect the entry of judgment in such accelerated amount against Eagle and in favor of Tail Wind.

For purposes of determining whether there is an equivalent offsetting long position in Common Stock held by Tail Wind, Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes (ignoring any conversion restrictions or limitations included therein) shall be deemed to be held long by Tail Wind in addition to all Shares, Conversion Shares and other shares of Common Stock held in a long position by Tail Wind.

Eagle agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Tail Wind, its officers, directors, stockholders and employees and each person who controls Tail Wind (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees) and expenses imposed on such person caused by (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or any preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are based upon any information furnished in writing to Eagle by Tail Wind, expressly for use therein, or (ii) any violation by Tail Wind of any federal, state or common law, rule or regulation applicable to Tail Wind in connection with any Registration Statement, Prospectus or any preliminary prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, and shall reimburse in accordance with subparagraph (iii) below, each of the foregoing persons for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claims. The foregoing is subject to the condition that, insofar as the foregoing indemnities relate to any untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission made in any preliminary prospectus or Prospectus that is eliminated or remedied in any Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, the above indemnity obligations of Eagle shall not inure to the benefit of any indemnified party if a copy of such corrected Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto had been made available to such indemnified party and was not sent or given by such indemnified party at or prior to the time such action was required of such indemnified party by the Securities Act and if delivery of such Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto would have eliminated (or been a sufficient defense to) any liability of such indemnified party with respect to such statement or omission. Indemnity under this Section 10(d) shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party and shall survive the permitted transfer of the Registrable Securities.
 
(ii)  Indemnification by Tail Wind. In connection with any registration pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Tail Wind will furnish to Eagle in writing such information as Eagle reasonably requests concerning the Tail Wind or the proposed manner of resale or distribution for use in connection with any Registration Statement or Prospectus and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Eagle, its directors, officers, employees, stockholders and each person who controls Eagle (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees) resulting from any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission of a material fact required to be stated in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or preliminary prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information furnished in writing by Tail Wind to Eagle specifically for inclusion in such Registration Statement or Prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto and that such information was substantially relied upon by Eagle in preparation of the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto. In no event shall the liability of Tail Wind be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of all expenses paid by any holder of Registrable Securities and the amount of any damages such holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement or omission) received by such holder of Registrable Securities upon the sale of the Registrable Securities included in the Registration Statement giving rise to such indemnification obligation.
 
(iii)  Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party; provided that any person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such person unless (a) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses, or (b) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such person or (c) in the reasonable judgment of any such person, based upon written advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between such person and the indemnifying party with respect to such claims (in which case, if the person notifies the indemnifying party in writing that such person elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such person); and provided, further, that the failure of any indemnified party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall materially adversely affect the indemnifying party in the defense of any such claim or litigation. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties. No indemnifying party will, except with the consent of the indemnified party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation.
 
(iv)  Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in the preceding paragraphs (i) and (ii) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient to hold it harmless, other than as expressly specified therein, then the indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnified party and the indemnifying party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act shall be entitled to contribution from any person not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In no event shall the contribution obligation of a holder of Registrable Securities be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds (net of all expenses paid by such holder and the amount of any damages such holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission) received by it upon the sale of all the Registrable Securities sold by such indemnified party which were covered by the relevant Registration Statement or Prospectus contained therein.
 
(e)  Effectiveness Default. If (i) the Registration Statement covering Registrable Securities is not declared effective by the SEC within ninety (90) days following the Issuance Date (or sixty (60) days following the filing of any subsequent Registration Statement, or the fifth day following the date on which Eagle is notified by the SEC that any Registration Statement will not be reviewed or is no longer subject to further review and comments, or March 1, 2007 in the event the Issuance Date does not occur prior to January 1, 2007), (ii) after the Registration Effectiveness Date, sales cannot be made pursuant to such Registration Statement for any reason (including without limitation by reason of a stop order, or Eagle’s failure to update the Registration Statement), other than pursuant to a Permitted Blackout, or (iii) the Registrable Securities specifically are not listed or included for quotation on the American Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq National Market, the Nasdaq Capital Market or the OTC Bulletin Board, or trading of the Common Stock is suspended or halted thereon for more than three (3) hours (any such default under (i), (ii) or (iii) constituting an “Effectiveness Default”), then Eagle will pay Tail Wind as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount equal to 2% of the product of the number of Registrable Securities (whether issued or not) as of the date of such Effectiveness Default times the closing price of the Common Stock on the Principal Market on the date of such Effectiveness Default, for each month (or portion thereof) following the Effectiveness Default during which any of the events described in (i), (ii) or (iii) above occurs and is continuing, which amount shall be payable at the end of each such month and upon termination of the Effectiveness Default. Such payments shall be in partial compensation to Tail Wind, and shall not constitute Tail Wind’s exclusive remedy for such events.
 
(f)  Rule 144. Without limiting anything contained in this Agreement, in the event that any of the Settlement Shares constitute “restricted securities” under and as defined in Rule 144 of the Securities Act, Eagle agrees that (i) for purposes of determining the holding period under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, for Conversion Shares issued upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, based on all facts presently known to Eagle, Eagle shall take the position that the holding period of Tail Wind for such Conversion Shares shall be tacked to the holding period of Tail Wind for the Convertible Notes, and (ii) it shall make publicly available on a timely basis the information necessary to enable Rule 144 under the Securities Act to be available for resale of the Settlement Shares.
 
(g)  No Action Letter. Eagle understands that Tail Wind may request (“Request”) from the Division of Corporation Finance of the SEC a “no action letter” (“No Action Letter”) to the effect that (i) such Division will not recommend enforcement if Eagle issues the Settlement Shares to Tail Wind without registration under the Securities Act and (ii) Tail Wind may resell the Settlement Shares received by it without registration under the Securities Act and without regard to Securities Act Rules 144 or 145(c) and (d). Eagle agrees to cooperate with Tail Wind in connection with any such Request, including without limitation taking any and all actions and executing any and all documents reasonably requested by Tail Wind in connection with any such Request. Eagle shall take not any position inconsistent with the position contained in any such Request. Based on all facts presently known to Eagle, Eagle agrees (i) that Tail Wind has never been, is not currently, and immediately following execution hereof will not be, an affiliate of or affiliated with Eagle in any manner or way whatsoever, and (ii) Tail Wind shall not in the future constitute an affiliate of or be affiliated with Eagle in any manner or way whatsoever so long as its sole relationship with Eagle continues to be as a holder of the Settlement Shares, Promissory Note and Convertible Notes and a Party to this Agreement. Eagle shall not take or assert any position inconsistent with the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii). Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10(g), in the event that the staff of the SEC disagrees with Eagle’s interpretation that Tail Wind is not an affiliate of Eagle, Eagle will comply with the SEC’s interpretation and take any necessary steps to remain in compliance with any applicable securities laws.
 
(h)  Legends. Promptly following the earliest of (a) the Registration Effectiveness Date, (b) the date on which Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act becomes available with respect to the Registrable Securities, or (c) the date on which Eagle and/or Tail Wind receives a No Action Letter, Eagle shall promptly cause certificates evidencing the Settlement Shares previously issued to be replaced with certificates which do not bear such restrictive legends, and Conversion Shares subsequently issued shall not bear such restrictive legends. In the event that Eagle does not issue new, unlegended certificates in replacement of the legended certificates as required under this Section 10(h) within 10 business days of a written request to do so, or if any subsequently issued Conversion Shares are issued with restrictive legends when unlegended certificates are required under this Section 10(h), Eagle shall be liable to Tail Wind (or subsequent holder thereof) for damages in an amount of $1,000 cash for each such day beyond the replacement date (or issuance date, in the case of newly converted Convertible Notes) that such unlegended certificates are not issued and delivered to Tail Wind (or subsequent holder).
 
11.  Arbitration. Any and all disputes arising from or in connection with this Agreement (excluding matters pertaining to the Promissory Note or Conversion Notes subject to the confession of judgment described in Section 12 below), whether based on contract, tort, common law, equity, statute, regulation, order or otherwise (“Disputes”), including Disputes arising in connection with claims by third persons, shall be exclusively governed by and settled in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11; provided, that the foregoing shall not preclude equitable or other judicial relief to enforce the provisions of this Section 11 or to preserve the status quo pending resolution of Disputes hereunder.
 
(a)  Binding Arbitration. The Parties hereby agree to submit all Disputes to arbitration for final and binding resolution. Either Party may initiate such arbitration by delivery of a demand therefor (the “Arbitration Demand”) to the other Party. The arbitration shall be conducted in New York, New York by a sole arbitrator selected by agreement of the parties not later than 10 days after delivery of the Arbitration Demand, or, failing such agreement, appointed pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, as amended from time to time (the “AAA Rules”). If the arbitrator becomes unable to serve, his successor(s) shall be similarly selected or appointed.
 
(b)  Procedures. The arbitration shall be conducted pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act and such procedures as the parties may agree or, in the absence of or failing such agreement, pursuant to the AAA Rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing (i) each party shall provide to the other, reasonably in advance of any hearing, copies of all documents that a party intends to present in such hearing; (ii) all hearings shall be conducted on an expedited schedule; and (iii) all proceedings shall be confidential, except that either party may at its expense make a stenographic record thereof.
 
(c)  Timing. The arbitrator shall complete all hearings not later than 90 days after his or her selection or appointment, and shall make a final award not later than 30 days thereafter. The arbitrator shall apportion all costs and expenses of the arbitration, including the arbitrator's fees and expenses and fees and expenses of experts (“Arbitration Costs”), between the prevailing and non-prevailing party as the arbitrator shall deem fair and reasonable. In circumstances where a Dispute has been asserted or defended against on grounds that the arbitrator deems manifestly unreasonable, the arbitrator may assess all Arbitration Costs against the non-prevailing party and may include in the award the prevailing party's attorney's fees and expenses in connection with any and all proceedings under this Section 11.
 
12.  Payment Set Aside. To the extent that Eagle makes a payment or payments to Tail Wind pursuant to this Agreement, the Promissory Note or the Convertible Notes (whether is cash, Common Stock or otherwise) or Tail Wind 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 Eagle, a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy or insolvency 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.
 
13.  Confidentiality.

Eagle represents, warrants agrees that (i) it has not provided to Tail Wind any material non-public information concerning Eagle (other than the existence of this Agreement), and (ii) it will not furnish to Tail Wind any material non-public information concerning Eagle without Tail Wind’s prior written consent.
