(e) Governmental Review.  Such Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities.
 
(f) Transfer or Resale.  Such Purchaser understands that (i) except as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, the sale or resale of the Securities have not been and are not being registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and the Securities may not be transferred unless (A) the transfer is made pursuant to and as set forth in an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the Securities; or (B) such Purchaser shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that the Securities to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration; or (C) sold under and in compliance with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (including any successor rule, “Rule 144”); or (D) sold or transferred to an affiliate of such Purchaser that agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the Securities only in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2(f) and that is an Accredited Investor; and (ii) neither the Company nor any other person is under any obligation to register such Securities under the Securities Act or any state securities laws (other than pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement).  Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else contained herein to the contrary, the Securities may be pledged as collateral in connection with a bona fide margin account or other lending arrangement, provided such pledge is consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations.
 
(g) Legends.  Such Purchaser understands that the Preferred Stock and Series B Warrant and, until such time as the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares have been registered under the Securities Act (including registration pursuant to Rule 416 thereunder) as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise may be sold by such Purchaser under Rule 144, the certificates for the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form:
 
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.  THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS UNLESS OFFERED, SOLD OR TRANSFERRED PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THOSE LAWS.
 
       The Company shall, within three business days after any registration statement covering the Securities (including, without limitation, the Registration Statement contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement) is declared effective, deliver to its transfer agent an opinion letter of counsel, opining that at any time such registration statement is effective, the transfer agent shall issue, in connection with the issuance of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares, certificates representing such Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares without the restrictive legend above, provided such Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares are to be sold pursuant to the prospectus contained in such registration statement.  Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company shall cause the transfer agent to confirm, for the benefit of the holders, that no further opinion of counsel is required at the time of transfer in order to issue such shares without such restrictive legend.

The legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of any Security upon which it is stamped, if, unless otherwise required by state securities laws, (i) the sale of such Security is registered under the Securities Act (including registration pursuant to Rule 416 thereunder); (ii) such holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Security may be made without registration under the Securities Act; or (iii) such holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such Security can be sold under Rule 144 (which shall not be required to include an opinion of counsel).  In the event the above legend is removed from any Security and thereafter the effectiveness of a registration statement covering such Security is suspended or the Company determines that a supplement or amendment thereto is required by applicable securities laws, then upon reasonable advance written notice to such Purchaser the Company may require that the above legend be placed on any such Security that cannot then be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or under Rule 144 and such Purchaser shall cooperate in the replacement of such legend.  The Company shall use its best efforts to, within three business days, cause such legend to be removed when such Security may again be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or under Rule 144.

8. GOVERNING LAW; MISCELLANEOUS.
 
(a) Governing Law; Jurisdiction.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California applicable to contracts made and to be performed in the State of California.  The Company and each Purchaser irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States federal courts and the state courts located in the County of Orange, State of California, in any suit or proceeding based on or arising under this Agreement and irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such suit or proceeding may be determined in such courts. The Company irrevocably waives the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit or proceeding. The Company further agrees that service of process upon the Company mailed by first class mail shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Company in any such suit or proceeding.  Nothing herein shall affect the right of any Purchaser to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.  The Company agrees that a final non-appealable judgment in any such suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on such judgment or in any other lawful manner.
 
(b) Termination.  In the event that the Closing with respect to any Purchaser shall not have occurred within ten (10) days after the date such Purchaser has executed this Agreement, then such Purchaser shall have the right to terminate its obligations under this Agreement with respect to itself at any time on or after the close of business on such date without liability of such Purchaser to any other party; provided, however, (i) the right to terminate its obligations under this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8(b) shall not be available to such Purchaser if the failure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to have been consummated by such date is the result of such Purchaser’s breach of this Agreement and (ii) the abandonment of the sale and purchase of the Securities shall be applicable only to such Purchaser providing such written notice, provided further that no such termination shall affect any obligation of the Company under this Agreement to reimburse such Purchaser for the expenses described in Section 4(h) above. Nothing contained in this Section 8(b) shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.
 
(c) Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party.  This Agreement, once executed by a party, may be delivered to the other parties hereto by facsimile transmission or electronic mail of a copy of this Agreement bearing the signature of the party so delivering this Agreement.
 
(d) Construction.  Whenever the context requires, the gender of any word used in this Agreement includes the masculine, feminine or neuter, and the number of any word includes the singular or plural.  Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to articles and sections refer to articles and sections of this Agreement, and all references to schedules are to schedules attached hereto, each of which is made a part hereof for all purposes.  The descriptive head­ings of the several articles and sections of this Agreement are inserted for purposes of reference only, and shall not affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof.
 
(e) Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.
 
(f) Entire Agreement; Amendments.  This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including any schedules and exhibits hereto and thereto) contain the entire understanding of the Purchasers, the Company, their affiliates and persons acting on their behalf with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company nor the Purchasers make any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters.  No provision of this Agreement may be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party to be charged with enforcement, and no provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and each Purchaser.  No consideration shall be paid to a Purchaser by the Company in connection with an amendment hereto unless each Purchaser similarly affected by such amendment receives a pro rata amount of consideration from the Company, and, unless a Purchaser agrees otherwise, each amendment hereto shall similarly affect each Purchaser.

(l) Indemnification.  In consideration of each Purchaser’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and purchase of the Securities hereunder, and in addition to all of the Company’s other obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, from and after the Closing, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser and each other holder of the Securities and all of their stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing persons’ agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith, and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), actually incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained in this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby or (iii) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company) and arising out of or resulting from (A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (B) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance and sale of the Securities, (C) any disclosure made by such Purchaser pursuant to Section 4(c) hereof, or (D) the status of such Purchaser or holder of the Securities as an investor in the Company. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.
 
(m) Joint Participation in Drafting.  Each party to this Agreement has participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.  As such, the language used herein and therein shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any party to this Agreement.
 
(n) Knowledge.  As used in this Agreement, the term “knowledge” of any person or entity shall mean and include (i) actual knowledge of any of the Company’s officers or directors and (ii) that knowledge which a reasonably prudent business person could have obtained in the management of his or her business affairs after making due inquiry and exercising due diligence which a prudent business person should have made or exercised, as applicable, with respect thereto.
 
(o) Exculpation Among Purchasers.  The Company acknowledges that the obligations of each Purchaser under this Agreement and each of the other 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. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it has independently evaluated the merits of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, that it has independently determined to enter into the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, that it is not relying on any advice from or evaluation by any other Purchaser, and that it is not acting in concert with any other Purchaser in making its purchase of securities hereunder or in monitoring its investment in the Company.  The Purchasers and, to its knowledge, the Company agree that the no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or to the other Transaction Documents, 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 would deem such Purchasers to be members of a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, and the Purchasers have not agreed to act together for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of equity securities of the Company. The Company 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” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in their review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents.
