AGREEMENT NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual promises, representations, warranties and covenants hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 1. AGREEMENT TO SELL AND PURCHASE. Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, on the Closing Date (as defined in Section 3), the Company agrees to sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase from the Company Notes in the amount set forth next to the Purchaser's name on Exhibit A under the column heading "Closing Date Notes," convertible in accordance with the terms thereof into shares of the Company's Common Stock, which amount shall be equal to $300,000. The Notes purchased on the Closing Date shall be known as the "OFFERING." The form of Notes is annexed hereto as Exhibit B. The Notes will have a Maturity Date (as defined in the Notes) two years from the date of issuance. Collectively, the Notes and Warrants (as defined in Section 2) and Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants are referred to as the "SECURITIES." 2. FEES AND WARRANTS. (a) The Company will issue and deliver to the persons listed on Exhibit A under the column heading "Warrant Holders", or to such other persons as the Purchaser shall otherwise designate (such named persons, as they may be so otherwise designated, being referred to as the "WARRANT RECIPIENTS"), Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock (the "WARRANT SHARES") in the amounts designated on Exhibit A hereto in connection with the Offering (the "WARRANTS") pursuant to Section 1 hereof. The Warrants must be delivered on the Closing Date. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants granted on the Closing Date is set forth on Exhibit A hereto. A form of Warrant is annexed hereto as Exhibit C. The per share "PURCHASE PRICE" of Common Stock as defined in the Warrants shall be equal to the lesser of (i) 120% of the average of the three lowest closing prices of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg Financial for the Pink Sheets, the NASD OTC Bulletin Board, NASDAQ SmallCap Market, NASDAQ National Market, American Stock Exchange, or New York Stock Exchange (each of the foregoing the "PRINCIPAL MARKET"), or such other principal market or exchange where the Common Stock is listed or traded, for the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding but not including the Closing Date or (ii) 120% of the average of the three lowest closing prices of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg Financial on the Principal Market for the ten trading days immediately prior to but not including the date the Warrant is exercised. .

The aforementioned Fund Manager's Fee and legal fees will be payable at the Closing out of funds held pursuant to a Funds Escrow Agreement to be entered into by the Company, Purchaser and an Escrow Agent.

The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants may increase substantially in certain circumstances, including, but not necessarily limited to, the circumstance wherein the trading price of the Common Stock declines prior to conversion or exercise of such securities. The Company's executive officers and directors have studied and fully understand the nature of the Securities being sold hereby 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 its obligation to issue the shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants is binding upon the Company and enforceable regardless of the dilution such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other stockholders of the Company. 5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASER. The Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company with respect to itself or himself as follows (such representations and warranties do not lessen or obviate the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement): 5.1 REQUISITE POWER AND AUTHORITY.

A deviation from the use of proceeds set forth on SCHEDULE 6.5 of more than 10% per item or more than 20% in the aggregate shall be deemed a material breach of the Company's obligations hereunder. 6.6 ACCESS TO FACILITIES. The Company will permit any representatives designated by the Purchaser (or any transferee of the Purchaser), so long as such person holds any Securities upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, at such person's expense and accompanied by a representative of the Company, to (a) visit and inspect any of the properties of the Company, (b) examine the corporate and financial records of the Company (unless such examination is not permitted by federal, state or local law or by contract) and make copies thereof or extracts therefrom and (c) discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of any such corporations with the directors, officers and independent accountants of the Company. 6.7 TAXES. The Company will promptly pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, when due and payable, all lawful taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon the income, profits, property or business of the Company; provided, however, that any such tax, assessment, charge or levy need not be paid if the validity thereof shall currently be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and if the Company shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto, and provided, further, that the Company will pay all such taxes, assessments, charges or levies forthwith upon the commencement of proceedings to foreclose any lien which may have attached as security therefor. 6.8 BOOKS AND RECORDS.

For so long as at least 20% of the principal amount of the Notes are outstanding, the Company, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, shall not: (a) authorize, create or issue any securities (or any rights or securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for securities) having rights, preferences or privileges superior to the Conversion Shares; (b) directly or indirectly declare or pay any dividends or make any distributions upon any of its capital stock or other equity securities (or any securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for equity securities); (c) directly or indirectly redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire any of the Corporation's capital stock or other equity securities (including, without limitation, any warrants, options and other rights to acquire such capital stock or other equity securities) or directly or indirectly redeem, purchase or make any payments with respect to any stock appreciation rights, phantom stock plans or similar rights or plans; (d) sell, lease or otherwise dispose of more than 10% of the assets of the Company (computed on the basis of book value, determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, or fair market value, determined by the Board of Directors in its reasonable good faith judgment) in any transaction or series of related transactions (other than sales of inventory in the ordinary course of business) or sell or permanently dispose of any of its Intellectual Property; (e) liquidate, dissolve or effect a recapitalization, reclassification or reorganization in any form of transaction (including, without limitation, any reorganization into a limited liability company, a partnership or any other non-corporate entity which is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes); (f) become subject to (including, without limitation, by way of amendment to or modification of) any agreement or instrument which by its terms would (under any circumstances) restrict the Company's right to perform the provisions of this Agreement or any of the agreements contemplated thereby; -15- (g) create, incur, assume or suffer to exist indebtedness exceeding an aggregate principal amount of $500,000 outstanding at any time per $2.5 million of the Company's market capitalization, excluding any indebtedness contemplated by this Agreement or any other indebtedness owed to the Purchaser incurred from time to time; (h) amend, alter or repeal the Company's Bylaws or Charter as to increase the number of authorized shares of the Common Stock or any series of preferred stock, or materially affect the rights or other powers of the Conversion Shares, or otherwise take any action which is designed to, or could have the effect of, adversely affecting the rights or other powers of the Conversion Shares; or (i) materially alter or change the business of the Company. 6.13 REISSUANCE OF SECURITIES.

The Company agrees to cooperate with the Purchaser in connection with all resales pursuant to Rule 144(d) and Rule 144(k) and provide legal opinions necessary to allow such resales provided the Company and its counsel receive reasonably requested representations from the selling Purchaser and broker, if any. 6.14 OPINION.

COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY AND PURCHASER REGARDING INDEMNIFICATION. 7.1 COMPANY INDEMNIFICATION. The Company agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend Purchaser, each of Purchaser's officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control persons, and principal shareholders, against any claim, cost, expense, liability, obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Purchaser which results, arises out of or is based upon (i) any misrepresentation by Company or breach of any warranty by Company in this Agreement or in any exhibits or schedules attached hereto or any Related Agreement, or (ii) any breach or default in performance by Company of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by Company hereunder, or any other agreement entered into by the Company and Purchaser relating hereto. 7.2 PURCHASER'S INDEMNIFICATION. Purchaser agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Company and each of the Company's officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control persons and principal stockholders, at all times against any claim, cost, expense, liability, obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Company which results, arises out of or is based upon (a) any misrepresentation by Purchaser or breach of warranty by Purchaser in this Agreement or in any exhibits or schedules attached hereto or any Related Agreement; or (b) any breach or default in performance by Purchaser of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by Purchaser hereunder, or any other agreement entered into by the Company and Purchaser relating hereto. -16- 7.3 PROCEDURES. The procedures and limitations set forth in Section 9.6 shall apply to the indemnifications set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2 above. 8. CONVERSION OF CONVERTIBLE NOTES. 8.1 MECHANICS OF CONVERSION. (a) Upon the conversion of the Notes or part thereof, the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all necessary action (including the issuance of an opinion of counsel) to assure that the Company's transfer agent shall issue stock certificates in the name of the Purchaser (or its nominee) or such other persons as designated by the Purchaser and in such denominations to be specified representing the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon such conversion. The Company warrants that no instructions other than these instructions have been or will be given to the transfer agent of the Company's Common Stock and that the Conversion Shares issued will be unlegended, free-trading, and freely transferable, and will not contain a legend restricting the resale or transferability of the Conversion Shares, provided the Purchaser has notified the Company of the Purchaser's intention to sell the Conversion Shares and the Conversion Shares are included in an effective registration statement or are otherwise exempt from registration when sold. (b) Purchaser will give notice of its decision to exercise its right to convert the Notes or part thereof by telecopying or otherwise delivering an executed and completed notice of the number of shares to be converted to the Company (the "NOTICE OF CONVERSION"). The Purchaser will not be required to surrender the Notes until the Purchaser receives a certificate or certificates, as the case may be, representing the Conversion Shares or until the Note has been fully satisfied. Each date on which a Notice of Conversion is telecopied or delivered to the Company in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a "CONVERSION DATE." Upon the Company's confirmation of the number of Conversion Shares to be issued, the Company will or will cause the transfer agent to transmit the Company's Common Stock certificates representing the shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes (and a certificate representing the balance of the Notes not so converted, if requested by Purchaser) to the Purchaser via express courier for receipt by such Purchaser within three business days after receipt by the Company of the Notice of Conversion (the "DELIVERY DATE"). (c) The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Conversion Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 8 hereof, or the Mandatory Redemption Payment described in Section 8.2 hereof, beyond the Delivery Date or Mandatory Redemption Payment Date (as defined in Section 8.2) could result in economic loss to the Purchaser. As compensation to the Purchaser for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payments to the Purchaser for late issuance of the Conversion Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 8 hereof upon conversion of the Notes or late payment of the Mandatory Redemption Payment, in the amount of $100 per business day after the Delivery Date or Mandatory Redemption Payment Date, as the case may be, for each $10,000 Note principal being converted or redeemed. The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand. Furthermore, in addition to any other remedies which may be available to the Purchaser, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Conversion Shares by the Delivery Date or make payment by the Mandatory Redemption Payment Date, the Purchaser will be entitled to revoke all or part of the relevant Notice of Conversion or rescind all or part of the notice of Mandatory Redemption by delivery of a notice to such effect to the Company whereupon the Company and the Purchaser shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the delivery of such notice, except that late payment charges described above shall be payable through the date notice of revocation or rescission is given to the Company. -17- (d) Nothing contained herein or in any document referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest or dividends required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum amount permitted by such law, any payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited against amounts owed by the Company to a Purchaser and thus refunded to the Company. 8.2 MANDATORY REDEMPTION. In the event the Company is unable to issue Conversion Shares on a Delivery Date or at any time when a Note is convertible, for any reason, then at the Purchaser's election, the Company must pay to the Purchaser five (5) business days after request by the Purchaser or on the Delivery Date (if requested by the Purchaser) a sum of money determined by multiplying the principal of the Note required to be converted and not so converted (or otherwise not convertible, as applicable) by 130%, together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon ("MANDATORY REDEMPTION PAYMENT"). The Mandatory Redemption Payment must be received by the Purchaser on the same date as the Conversion Shares are otherwise deliverable or within five (5) business days after request, whichever is sooner ("MANDATORY REDEMPTION PAYMENT DATE"). Upon receipt of the Mandatory Redemption Payment, the corresponding Note principal and interest will be deemed paid and no longer outstanding. 8.3 MAXIMUM CONVERSION. The Purchaser shall not be entitled to convert on a Conversion Date that amount of a Note or Notes in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Purchaser on a Conversion Date, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Notes with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made on a Conversion Date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Purchaser of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company on such Conversion Date. For the purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. Subject to the foregoing, a Purchaser shall not be limited to aggregate conversions of only 4.99%. A Purchaser may void the conversion limitation described in this Section 8.3 upon 75 days prior notice to the Company or upon an Event of Default under the Note. A Purchaser may allocate which of the equity of the Company deemed beneficially owned by such Purchaser shall be included in the 4.99% amount described above and which shall be allocated to the excess above 4.99%. -18- 8.4 INJUNCTION - POSTING OF BOND. In the event a Purchaser shall elect to convert a Note or part thereof, the Company may not refuse conversion for any reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice, restraining and or enjoining conversion of all or part of said Note shall have been sought and obtained and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of such Purchaser in the amount of 130% of the amount of the Note, which is subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute. 8.5 BUY-IN. In addition to any other rights available to the Purchaser, if the Company fails to deliver to the Purchaser Conversion Shares by the Delivery Date and if after the Delivery Date the Purchaser purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Purchaser of the Common Stock which the Purchaser anticipated receiving upon such conversion (a "BUY-IN"), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Purchaser (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by such Purchaser) the amount by which (A) the Purchaser's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate principal and/or interest amount of the Note, for which such conversion was not timely honored, together with interest thereon at a rate of 15% per annum, accruing until such amount and any accrued interest thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty). For example, if the Purchaser purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of $10,000 of Note principal and/or interest, the Company shall be required to pay the Purchaser $1,000, plus interest. The Purchaser shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Purchaser in respect of the Buy-In. 8.6 OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. The Company will have the option of redeeming any outstanding Notes ("OPTIONAL REDEMPTION") by paying to the Purchaser a sum of money as follows: from the Closing Date through 30 days after the Closing Date - 120% from 31 days through 90 days after the Closing Date - 135% from 91 days through 180 days after the Closing Date - 150% after 180 days following the Closing Date - 200% of the principal amount of the Note together with accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any and all other sums due, accrued or payable to the Purchaser arising under this Agreement, Note or any other document delivered herewith ("REDEMPTION AMOUNT") outstanding on the day notice of redemption ("NOTICE OF REDEMPTION) is given to a Purchaser ("REDEMPTION DATE"). A Notice of Redemption may not be given in connection with any portion of Note for which notice of conversion has been given by the Purchaser at any time before receipt of a Notice of Redemption. The Purchaser may elect within three (3) business days after receipt of a Notice of Redemption to give the Company Notice of Conversion in connection with some or all of the Note principal and interest which was the subject of the Notice of Redemption. A Notice of Redemption must be accompanied by a certificate signed by the chief executive officer or chief financial officer of the Company stating that the Company has on deposit and segregated ready funds equal to the Redemption Amount. The Redemption Amount must be paid in good funds to the Purchaser no later than the seventh (7th) business day after the Redemption Date ("OPTIONAL REDEMPTION PAYMENT DATE"). In the event the Company fails to pay the Redemption Amount by the Optional Redemption Payment Date, then the Redemption Notice will be null and void and the Company will thereafter have no further right to effect an Optional Redemption, and at the Purchaser's election, the Redemption Amount will be deemed a Mandatory Redemption Payment and the Optional Redemption Payment Date will be deemed a Mandatory Redemption Payment Date. Such failure will also be deemed an Event of Default under the Note. Any Notice of Redemption must be given to all holders of Notes issued in connection with the Offering, in proportion to their holdings of Note principal on a Redemption Date. A Notice of Redemption may be given by the Company, provided (i) no Event of Default, as described in the Note shall have occurred and be continuing; and (ii) the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the full outstanding Note principal are included for unrestricted resale in a registration statement effective as of the Redemption Date. Note proceeds may not be used to effect an Optional Redemption. -19- 9. REGISTRATION RIGHTS. 9.1 REGISTRATION RIGHTS GRANTED. The Company hereby grants the following registration rights to holders of the securities purchased hereby. (a) On two occasions, for a period commencing 90 days after the Closing Date, but not later than four (4) years after the Closing Date (the "REQUEST Date"), the Company, upon a written request therefor from holders of more than 50% of the aggregate of the Company's Securities then outstanding, on an as converted basis (the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares issued or issuable with respect to all Notes or Warrants issued or to be issued hereunder, being, the "REGISTRABLE SECURITIES"), shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the Registrable Securities which are the subject of such request, unless such Registrable Securities are the subject of an effective registration statement. In addition, upon the receipt of such request, the Company shall promptly give written notice to all other record holders of the Registrable Securities that such registration statement is to be filed and shall include in such registration statement Registrable Securities for which it has received written requests within 10 days after the Company gives such written notice. Such other requesting record holders shall be deemed to have exercised their demand registration right under this Section 9.1. As a condition precedent to the inclusion of Registrable Securities, the holder thereof shall provide the Company with such information as the Company reasonably requests. The obligation of the Company under this Section 9.1 shall be limited to two registration statements. (b) If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its securities under the Act for sale to the public, whether for its own account or for the account of other security holders or both, except with respect to registration statements on Forms S-4, S-8 or another form not available for registering the Registrable Securities for sale to the public, provided the Registrable Securities are not otherwise registered for resale by the Purchaser or subsequent holder pursuant to an effective registration statement, each such time it will give at least 30 days' prior written notice to the record holder of any Securities of its intention so to do. Upon the written request of the holder, received by the Company within 15 days after the giving of any such notice by the Company, to register any of the Registrable Securities, the Company will cause such Registrable Securities as to which registration shall have been so requested to be included with the securities to be covered by the registration statement proposed to be filed by the Company, all to the extent required to permit the sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities so registered by the holder of such Registrable Securities (the "SELLER"). In the event that any registration pursuant to this -20- Section 9.1(b) shall be, in whole or in part, an underwritten public offering of Common Stock of the Company, the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in such an underwriting may be reduced by the managing underwriter if and to the extent that the Company and the underwriter shall reasonably be of the opinion that such inclusion would adversely affect the marketing of the securities to be sold by the Company therein; provided, however, that the Company shall notify the Seller in writing of any such reduction. Notwithstanding the forgoing provisions, or Section 9.1(a) hereof, the Company may withdraw or delay or suffer a delay of any registration statement referred to in this Section 9.1(b) without thereby incurring any liability to the Seller. (c) If, at the time any written request for registration is received by the Company pursuant to Section 9.1(a), the Company has determined to proceed with the actual preparation and filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act in connection with the proposed offer and sale for cash of any of its securities for the Company's own account, such written request shall be deemed to have been given pursuant to Section 9.1(b) rather than Section 9.1(a), and the rights of the holders of Registrable Securities covered by such written request shall be governed by Section 9.1(b) except that the Company or underwriter, if any, may not withdraw such registration or limit the amount of Registrable Securities included in such registration. (d) The Company shall file with the SEC within 30 days of the Closing Date (the "FILING DATE"), and use its reasonable commercial efforts to cause to be declared effective a Form SB-2 registration statement (or such other form that it is eligible to use) within 90 days of the Closing Date in order to register the Registrable Securities for resale and distribution under the Securities Act. The registration statement described in this paragraph must be declared effective by the SEC within 120 days of the Closing Date (as defined herein) ("EFFECTIVE DATE"). The Company will register not less than a number of shares of Common Stock in the aforedescribed registration statement that is equal to 300% of the Warrant Shares and Conversion Shares issuable at the Conversion Prices set forth in the Warrants and Notes, respectively, that would be in effect on the Closing Date or the date of filing of such registration statement (employing the conversion price which would result in the greater number of Shares), assuming the conversion of 100% of the Notes which are then outstanding or issuable hereunder, and at least one share of common stock for each common share issuable upon exercise of the Warrants which are then outstanding or issuable hereunder (employing the Conversion Price that would result in the greater number of shares). The Registrable Securities shall be reserved and set aside exclusively for the benefit of the Purchaser and the holders of the Warrants, as the case may be, and not issued, employed or reserved for anyone other than the Purchaser and the holders of the Warrants. Such registration statement will be promptly amended or additional registration statements will be promptly filed by the Company as necessary to register additional Company Shares to allow the public resale of all Common Stock included in and issuable by virtue of the Registrable Securities. No securities of the Company other than the Registrable Securities will be included in the registration statement described in this Section 9.1(d). -21- 9.2 REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. If and whenever the Company is required by the provisions hereof to effect the registration of any shares of Registrable Securities under the Act, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible: (a) prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective for the period of the distribution contemplated thereby (determined as herein provided), and promptly provide to the holders of Registrable Securities copies of all filings and SEC letters of comment; (b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective until the later of: (i) six months after the latest exercise period of the Warrants; (ii) twelve months after the Maturity Date of the last maturing Notes or (iii) four years after the Closing Date, and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement in accordance with the Seller's intended method of disposition set forth in such registration statement for such period; (c) furnish to the Seller, and to each underwriter if any, such number of copies of the registration statement and the prospectus included therein (including each preliminary prospectus) as such persons reasonably may request to facilitate the public sale or their disposition of the securities covered by such registration statement; (d) use its best efforts to register or qualify the Seller's Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under the securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions as the Seller and in the case of an underwritten public offering, the managing underwriter shall reasonably request, provided, however, that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to transact business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction; (e) list the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement with any securities exchange on which the Common Stock of the Company is then listed; (f) immediately notify the Seller and each underwriter under such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event of which the Company has knowledge as a result of which the prospectus contained in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing; and (g) make available for inspection by the Seller, any underwriter participating in any distribution pursuant to such registration statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Seller or underwriter, all publicly available, non-confidential financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all publicly available, non-confidential information reasonably requested by the seller, underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement. -22- 9.3 PROVISION OF DOCUMENTS. (a) At the request of the Seller, provided a demand for registration has been made pursuant to Section 9.1(a) or a request for registration has been made pursuant to Section 9.1(b), the Registrable Securities will be included in a registration statement filed pursuant to this Section 9. (b) In connection with each registration hereunder, the Seller will furnish to the Company in writing such information and representation letters with respect to itself and the proposed distribution by it as reasonably shall be necessary in order to assure compliance with federal and applicable state securities laws. In connection with each registration pursuant to Section 9 covering an underwritten public offering, the Company and the Seller agree to enter into a written agreement with the managing underwriter in such form and containing such provisions as are customary in the securities business for such an arrangement between such underwriter and companies of the Company's size and investment stature. 9.4 NON-REGISTRATION EVENTS. The Company and the Purchaser agree that the Purchaser will suffer damages if any registration statement required under Section 9.1(a) above is not filed within 60 days after written request by the holder and not declared effective by the SEC within 120 days after such request, and maintained in the manner and within the time periods contemplated by Section 9 hereof, and it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision. Accordingly, if (i) the Registration Statement described in Section 9.1(a) is not filed within 60 days of such written request, or is not declared effective by the SEC on or prior to the date that is 120 days after such request, or (ii) the registration statement on Form SB-2 or such other form as described in Section 9.1(d) is not filed on or before the Filing Date or not declared effective on or before the sooner of the Effective Date, or within five days of receipt by the Company of a communication from the SEC that the registration statement described in Section 9.1(d) will not be reviewed, or (iii) any registration statement described in Section 9.1(a) or (d) is filed and declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be effective (without being succeeded immediately by an additional registration statement filed and declared effective) for a period of time which shall exceed 60 days in the aggregate per year but not more than 20 consecutive calendar days (defined as a period of 365 days commencing on the date the Registration Statement is declared effective) (each such event referred to in this Section 9.4 is referred to herein as a "NON-REGISTRATION EVENT"), then, for so long as such Non-Registration Event shall continue, (i) the Company shall pay in cash as Liquidated Damages to the Purchaser an amount equal to two percent (2%) per month or part thereof during the pendency of such Non-Registration Event of the principal of the Notes issued in connection with the Offering, whether or not converted, then owned of record by the Purchaser and (ii) the Conversion Price as defined in Section 2.1 of the Notes shall be reduced by 10% for each 30-day period following the Effective Date that the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the SEC. Payments to be made pursuant to this Section shall be due and payable immediately upon demand in immediately available funds. In the event a Mandatory Redemption Payment is demanded from the Company by the holder pursuant to Section 8.2 of this Agreement, then the Liquidated Damages described in this Section 9.4 shall no longer accrue on the portion of the purchase price underlying the Mandatory Redemption Payment, from and after the date the Purchaser receives the Mandatory Redemption Payment. It shall be deemed a Non-Registration Event to the extent that all the Common Stock included in the Registrable Securities and underlying the Securities is not included in an effective registration statement as of and after the Effective Date at the conversion prices in effect from and after the Effective Date. -23- 9.5 EXPENSES. All expenses incurred by the Company in complying with Section 9, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or "blue sky" laws, fees of the NASD, transfer taxes, fees of transfer agents and registrars, fees of, and disbursements incurred by, one counsel for the Seller, and costs of insurance are called "REGISTRATION EXPENSES". All underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities, including any fees and disbursements of any special counsel to the Seller beyond those included in Registration Expenses, are called "SELLING EXPENSES." The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with the registration statement under Section 9. All Selling Expenses in connection with each registration statement under Section 9 shall be borne by the Purchaser. 9.6 INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION. (a) In the event of a registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 9, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Seller, each officer of each Seller, each director of each Seller, each underwriter of such Registrable Securities thereunder and each other person, if any, who controls any such Seller or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Seller, or such underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 9, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Seller, each such underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will be liable in any such case if and only to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished by any such Seller, the underwriter or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use in such registration statement, prospectus or amendment or supplement thereof. (b) In the event of a registration of any of the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 9, the Seller will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, and each of the Company's officers, directors, affiliates, and principal stockholders, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, against all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such officer, director, affiliate, principal stockholder or control person may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 9, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and each such officer, director, affiliate, principal stockholder or control person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, provided, however, that the Seller will be liable hereunder in any such case if and only to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information pertaining to such Seller, as such, furnished in writing to the Company by such Seller specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus or amendment or supplement thereof. -24- (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party other than under this Section 9.6(c) and shall only relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party under this Section 9.6(c) if and to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 9.6(c) for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel so selected, provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or if the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, the indemnified parties shall have the right to select one separate counsel and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred. (d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in the event of joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which either (i) the Seller, or any controlling person of the Seller, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 9.6 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 9.6 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of the Seller or controlling person of the Seller in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 9.6; then, and in each such case, the Company and the Seller will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion so that the Seller is responsible only for the portion represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its securities offered by the registration statement bears to the public offering price of all securities offered by such registration statement, provided, however, that, in any such case, (A) the Seller will not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such securities offered by it pursuant to such registration statement; and (B) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. -25- 10.
