g. Filings.

No event or circumstances has occurred or exists with respect to the Company or its properties, business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), or results of operations, which, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure or announcement prior to the date hereof by the Company but which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed. There are no proposals currently under consideration or currently anticipated to be under consideration by the Board of Directors or the executive officers of the Company which proposal would (x) change the articles or certificate of incorporation or other charter document or by-laws of the Company, each as currently in effect, with or without shareholder approval, which change would reduce or otherwise adversely affect the rights and powers of the shareholders of the Common Stock or (y) materially or substantially change the business, assets or capital of the Company, including its interests in subsidiaries.

n. No Integrated Offering. Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates nor any Person acting on its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, at any time since May 1, 2003, made any offer or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would eliminate the availability of the exemption from registration under Regulation D in connection with the offer and sale of the Securities as contemplated hereby.

o. Dilution. The number of shares issuable on the Closing Date and upon exercise of the Warrants may have a dilutive effect on the ownership interests of the other shareholders (and Persons having the right to become shareholders) of the Company. 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 such 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 Warrant Shares upon 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 shareholders of the Company, and the Company will honor such obligations, including honoring every Notice of Exercise (as contemplated by the Warrants), unless the Company is subject to an injunction (which injunction was not sought by the Company) prohibiting the Company from doing so.

p. Fees to Brokers, Finders and Others. Except for payment of the fees to the Finder's Compensation (as defined below) to the Finder, payment of which is the sole responsibility of the Company, the Company has taken no action which would give rise to any claim by any Person for brokerage commission, finder's fees or similar payments by Buyer relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Buyer shall have no obligation with respect to such fees or with respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type contemplated in this paragraph that may be due in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each of Buyer, its employees, officers, directors, agents, and partners, and their respective Affiliates, from and against all claims, losses, damages, costs (including the costs of preparation and attorney's fees) and expenses suffered in respect of any such claimed or existing fees, as and when incurred. The term "Finder's Compensation" means, in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the consideration contemplated by the Joint Escrow Instructions.

q. Confirmation. The Company confirms that all statements of the Company contained herein shall survive acceptance of this Agreement by the Buyer. The Company agrees that, if any events occur or circumstances exist prior to the Closing Date or the release of the Purchase Price to the Company which would make any of the Company's representations, warranties, agreements or other information set forth herein materially untrue or materially inaccurate as of such date, the Company shall immediately notify the Buyer (directly or through its counsel, if any) and the Escrow Agent in writing prior to such date of such fact, specifying which representation, warranty or covenant is affected and the reasons therefor.

(D) the Exercise Price on the Warrants shall be adjusted to equal the lower of (1) the then existing Exercise Price, or (2) the lowest applicable exercise price of the Allowed New Transaction; and

(E) if the provisions of the warrant, option or similar instrument (howsoever denominated), if any, of the Allowed New Transaction are more beneficial to the holder of such instrument than the corresponding terms of the Warrant, or if the terms which are beneficial to the Company in the Warrant are not included in the corresponding instrument in the Allowed New Transaction, then, unless waived by the Holder, the Warrant terms shall be modified to reflect similar terms (based on the original issue date of the Warrants).

(iv) The term "Allowed New Transaction" means a New Transaction for the sale of any Company security, subject to the following terms, conditions and adjustments: (A) such offer and sale shall be made only to one or more accredited investors; (B) the maximum amount raised in such offer and sale (before payment of fees and expenses) shall be $1,500,000, less the gross amount of any previously consummated Allowed New Transactions; and (C) each of the sale price per share, the conversion price per share and/or exercise price per share (in each case, howsoever denominated), as the case may be, of such New Transaction shall be at least equal to the Threshold Price (as defined below).

(v) The term "Alternative Warrant Percentage" means (x) the number of shares which are eligible to be purchased under the warrant, option or other right (howsoever denominated) issued in the New Transaction ("New Transaction Warrants"), including any Allowed New Transaction, divided by (y) the aggregate of the shares of New Common Stock issued or issuable in such transaction (excluding the shares issuable on exercise of the New Transaction Warrants).

(vi) The term "Threshold Price" means, with respect to the applicable sale price or conversion price (howsoever denominated), the Threshold Sale Price, and with respect to a warrant or other option exercise price (howsoever denominated), the Threshold Exercise Price (as those terms are defined below). The term "Threshold Sale Price" means $0.75 per share, subject to further adjustment in the same manner as adjustments to the Conversion Price are made in the Debenture (other than by reason of Section 4(g) of this Agreement). The term "Threshold Exercise Price" means the amount equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the Threshold Sale Price. The term "Threshold Percentage" means the percentage equal to the fraction, of which (x) the numerator is the applicable sale price, conversion price or exercise price (howsoever denominated), as the case may be, and (y) the denominator is the applicable corresponding Threshold Price.

(vi) The foregoing provisions of Section 4(g) do not apply to (x) the issuance of New Common Stock in connection with a Person's exercise of conversion or other rights it may have under documents executed and transactions consummated prior to the date of this Agreement or (y) to the issuance after the date hereof of an aggregate of not more than 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock (adjusted for stock splits, reverse stock splits or common stock dividends effected after the date hereof), provided (A) such shares are only issued in consideration for services rendered to the Company, and (B) by the terms of such issuance, the securities so issued may not be registered for re-sale until the Holder no longer holds any Registrable Securities.

(vii) The term "Early Lock-up Termination Day" means the day after the period of ten (10) consecutive Trading Days, where the 4:00 PM closing sale price for the Common Stock on the Principal Trading Market on each of such ten Trading Day(s), as reported by the Reporting Service, was more than the Early Lock-Up Trigger Amount (as defined below). The term "Early Lock-up Trigger Amount" means $0.80 per share, subject to further adjustment in the same manner as adjustments to the Conversion Price are made in the Debenture (other than by reason of Section 4(g) of this Agreement).

(vii) Nothing in the foregoing provisions reflects either an obligation on the part of any Buyer to participate in any New Transaction or a limitation on any Buyer from participating in any New Transaction.

(viii) Any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 4(g) or any other provision of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Agreements to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not engage in any offers, sales or other transactions of its securities which would adversely affect the exemption from registration available for the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements.

h. Available Shares. The Company shall have at all times authorized and reserved for issuance, free from preemptive rights, a number of shares (the "Minimum Available Shares") at least equal to one hundred ten percent (110%) of the number of shares issuable upon exercise of all outstanding Warrants held by all Holders (in each case, whether such Warrants were originally issued to the Holder, the Buyer or to any other party). For the purposes of such calculations, the Company should assume that all Warrants were then issued and exercisable, in each case without regard to any restrictions which might limit any Holder's right to exercise any of the Warrants held by any Holder.

i. Publicity, Filings, Releases, Etc. Each of the parties agrees that it will not disseminate any information relating to the Transaction Agreements or the transactions contemplated thereby, including issuing any press releases, holding any press conferences or other forums, or filing any reports (collectively, "Publicity"), without giving the other party reasonable advance notice and an opportunity to comment on the contents thereof. Neither party will include in any such Publicity any statement or statements or other material to which the other party reasonably objects. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company will provide to the Buyer drafts of the applicable text of any filing intended to be made with the SEC which refers to the Transaction Agreements or the transactions contemplated thereby as soon as practicable (but at least two (2) business days before such filing will be made) and will not include in such filing any statement or statements or other material to which the other party reasonably objects. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the parties hereby consents to the inclusion of the text of the Transaction Agreements in filings made with the SEC (but any descriptive text accompanying or part of such filing shall be subject to the other provisions of this paragraph).

5. TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.

a. The Company warrants that, with respect to the Securities, other than the stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 4(a) hereof, it will give the Transfer Agent no instructions inconsistent with instructions to issue Common Stock representing the Purchased Shares and from time to time upon exercise of the Warrants in such amounts as specified from time to time by the Company to the Transfer Agent, bearing the restrictive legend specified in Section 4(b) of this Agreement prior to registration of the Shares under the 1933 Act, registered in the name of the Buyer or its nominee and in such denominations to be specified by the Holder in connection with each conversion of the Debentures. Except as so provided, the Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements. Nothing in this Section shall affect in any way the Buyer's obligations and agreement to comply with all applicable securities laws upon resale of the Securities. If the Buyer provides the Company with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that registration of a resale by the Buyer of any of the Securities in accordance with clause (1)(B) of Section 4(a) of this Agreement is not required under the 1933 Act, the Company shall (except as provided in clause (2) of Section 4(a) of this Agreement) permit the transfer of the Securities and, in the case of the Purchased Shares or of the Warrant Shares, promptly instruct the Transfer Agent to issue one or more certificates for Common Stock without legend in such name and in such denominations as specified by the Buyer.

b. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Company will permit the Buyer to exercise its right to exercise the Warrants in the manner contemplated by the Warrants.

c. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Transfer Agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions contained in this paragraph, so long as the certificates therefor do not bear a legend and the Holder thereof is not obligated to return such certificate for the placement of a legend thereon, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Transfer Agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder's Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system.

d. The Company will authorize the Transfer Agent to give information relating to the Company directly to the Buyer or the Buyer's representatives upon the request of the Buyer or any such representative, to the extent such information relates to (i) the status of shares of Common Stock issued or claimed to be issued to the Buyer in connection with a Notice of Exercise, or (ii) the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock of all shareholders as of a current or other specified date. At the request of the Buyer, the Company will provide the Buyer with a copy of the authorization so given to the Transfer Agent.

6. CLOSING DATE.

a. The Closing Date shall occur on the date which is the first Trading Day after each of the conditions contemplated by Sections 7 and 8 hereof shall have either been satisfied or been waived by the party in whose favor such conditions run.

b. The closing of the purchase and issuance of Purchased Securities shall occur on the Closing Date at the offices of the Escrow Agent and shall take place no later than 3:00 P.M., New York time, on such day or such other time as is mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Buyer.

c. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Escrow Agent will be authorized to release the Escrow Funds to the Company and to others and to release the other Escrow Property on the relevant Closing Date upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 7 and 8 hereof and as provided in the Joint Escrow Instructions. .

7. CONDITIONS TO THE COMPANY'S OBLIGATION TO SELL.

The Buyer understands that the Company's obligation to sell the Purchased Securities to the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement on the Closing Date is conditioned upon:

a. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Buyer on or before the Closing Date;

b. Delivery by the Buyer to the Escrow Agent by the Closing Date of good funds as payment in full of an amount equal to the Purchase Price in accordance with this Agreement;

c. The accuracy on such Closing Date of the representations and warranties of the Buyer contained in this Agreement, each as if made on such date, and the performance by the Buyer on or before such date of all covenants and agreements of the Buyer required to be performed on or before such date; and

d. There shall not be in effect any law, rule or regulation prohibiting or restricting the transactions contemplated hereby, or requiring any consent or approval which shall not have been obtained.

8. CONDITIONS TO THE BUYER'S OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE.

The Company understands that the Buyer's obligation to purchase the Purchased Securities on the Closing Date is conditioned upon:

a. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements by the Company on or before the Closing Date;

b. Delivery by the Company to the Escrow Agent of the relevant Certificates in accordance with this Agreement;

c. On such Closing Date, each of the Transaction Agreements executed by the Company on or before such date shall be in full force and effect and the Company shall not be in default thereunder;

d. The accuracy in all material respects on such Closing Date of the representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement, each as if made on such date, and the performance by the Company on or before such date of all covenants and agreements of the Company required to be performed on or before such date;

e. On such Closing Date, the Buyer shall have received an opinion of counsel for the Company, dated such Closing Date, in form, scope and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer, substantially to the effect set forth in Annex III attached hereto;

f. There shall not be in effect any law, rule or regulation prohibiting or restricting the transactions contemplated hereby, or requiring any consent or approval which shall not have been obtained; and

g. From and after the date hereof to and including the Closing Date, each of the following conditions will remain in effect: (i) the trading of the Common Stock shall not have been suspended by the SEC or on the Principal Trading Market; (ii) trading in securities generally on the Principal Trading Market shall not have been suspended or limited; (iii), no minimum prices shall been established for securities traded on the Principal Trading Market; and (iv) there shall not have been any material adverse change in any financial market that, in the reasonable judgment of the Buyer, makes it impracticable or inadvisable to purchase the Securities.

9. INDEMNIFICATION.

a. (i) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer and its officers, directors, employees, and agents, and each Buyer Control Person from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses incurred (collectively, "Damages"), joint or several, and any action in respect thereof to which the Buyer, its partners, Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and duly authorized agents, and any such Buyer Control Person becomes subject to, resulting from, arising out of or relating to any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or nonfulfillment of or failure to perform any covenant or agreement on the part of Company contained in this Agreement, as such Damages are incurred, except to the extent such Damages result primarily from Buyer's failure to perform any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or the Buyer's or its officer's, director's, employee's, agent's or Buyer Control Person's gross negligence, recklessness or bad faith in performing its obligations under this Agreement.

(ii) The Company hereby agrees that, if the Buyer, other than by reason of its gross negligence or willful misconduct (in each case, as determined by a non-appealable judgment to such effect), (x) becomes involved in any capacity in any action, proceeding or investigation brought by any shareholder of the Company, in connection with or as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements, or if the Buyer is impleaded in any such action, proceeding or investigation by any Person, or (y) becomes involved in any capacity in any action, proceeding or investigation brought by the SEC, any self-regulatory organization or other body having jurisdiction, against or involving the Company or in connection with or as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements, or (z) is impleaded in any such action, proceeding or investigation by any Person, then in any such case, the Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Buyer from and against and in respect of all losses, claims, liabilities, damages or expenses resulting from, imposed upon or incurred by the Buyer, directly or indirectly, and reimburse such Buyer for its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the cost of any investigation and preparation) incurred in connection therewith, as such expenses are incurred.. The indemnification and reimbursement obligations of the Company under this paragraph shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to any Affiliates of the Buyer who are actually named in such action, proceeding or investigation, and partners, directors, agents, employees and Buyer Control Persons (if any), as the case may be, of the Buyer and any such Affiliate, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Company, the Buyer, any such Affiliate and any such Person. The Company also agrees that neither the Buyer nor any such Affiliate, partner, director, agent, employee or Buyer Control Person shall have any liability to the Company or any Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of the Company in connection with or as a result of the consummation of this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements, except as may be expressly and specifically provided in or contemplated by this Agreement.

b. All claims for indemnification by any Indemnified Party (as defined below) under this Section shall be asserted and resolved as follows:

(i) In the event any claim or demand in respect of which any Person claiming indemnification under any provision of this Section (an "Indemnified Party") might seek indemnity under paragraph (a) of this Section is asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a Person other than a party hereto or an Affiliate thereof (a "Third Party Claim"), the Indemnified Party shall deliver a written notification, enclosing a copy of all papers served, if any, and specifying the nature of and basis for such Third Party Claim and for the Indemnified Party's claim for indemnification that is being asserted under any provision of this Section against any Person (the "Indemnifying Party"), together with the amount or, if not then reasonably ascertainable, the estimated amount, determined in good faith, of such Third Party Claim (a "Claim Notice") with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to provide the Claim Notice with reasonable promptness after the Indemnified Party receives notice of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim to the extent that the Indemnifying Party's ability to defend has been prejudiced by such failure of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party as soon as practicable within the period ending thirty (30) calendar days following receipt by the Indemnifying Party of either a Claim Notice or an Indemnity Notice (as defined below) (the "Dispute Period") whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability or the amount of its liability to the Indemnified Party under this Section and whether the Indemnifying Party desires, at its sole cost and expense, to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim. The following provisions shall also apply.

(x) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim pursuant to this paragraph (b) of this Section, then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, such Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be vigorously and diligently prosecuted by the Indemnifying Party to a final conclusion or will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnifying Party (but only with the consent of the Indemnified Party in the case of any settlement that provides for any relief other than the payment of monetary damages or that provides for the payment of monetary damages as to which the Indemnified Party shall not be indemnified in full pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section). The Indemnifying Party shall have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnified Party, at any time prior to the Indemnifying Party's delivery of the notice referred to in the first sentence of this subparagraph (x), file any motion, answer or other pleadings or take any other action that the Indemnified Party reasonably believes to be necessary or appropriate protect its interests; and provided further, that if requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnifying Party in contesting any Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party elects to contest. The Indemnified Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this subparagraph (x), and except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Indemnified Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party may take over the control of the defense or settlement of a Third Party Claim at any time if it irrevocably waives its right to indemnity under paragraph (a) of this Section with respect to such Third Party Claim.

(y) If the Indemnifying Party fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party desires to defend the Third Party Claim pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section, or if the Indemnifying Party gives such notice but fails to prosecute vigorously and diligently or settle the Third Party Claim, or if the Indemnifying Party fails to give any notice whatsoever within the Dispute Period, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Third Party Claim by all appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be prosecuted by the Indemnified Party in a reasonable manner and in good faith or will be settled at the discretion of the Indemnified Party (with the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld). The Indemnified Party will have full control of such defense and proceedings, including any compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that if requested by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, provide reasonable cooperation to the Indemnified Party and its counsel in contesting any Third Party Claim which the Indemnified Party is contesting. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subparagraph (y), if the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability or the amount of its liability hereunder to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim and if such dispute is resolved in favor of the Indemnifying Party in the manner provided in subparagraph(z) below, the Indemnifying Party will not be required to bear the costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party's defense pursuant to this subparagraph (y) or of the Indemnifying Party's participation therein at the Indemnified Party's request, and the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party in full for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnifying Party in connection with such litigation. The Indemnifying Party may participate in, but not control, any defense or settlement controlled by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this subparagraph (y), and the Indemnifying Party shall bear its own costs and expenses with respect to such participation.

(z) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it does not dispute its liability or the amount of its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third Party Claim under paragraph (a) of this Section or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability or the amount of its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim, the amount of Damages specified in the Claim Notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under paragraph (a) of this Section and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Damages to the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability or the amount of its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute; provided, however, that it the dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days after the Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall be enlisted to institute such legal action as it deems appropriate.

(ii) In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim under paragraph (a) of this Section against the Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall deliver a written notification of a claim for indemnity under paragraph (a) of this Section specifying the nature of and basis for such claim, together with the amount or, if not then reasonably ascertainable, the estimated amount, determined in good faith, of such claim (an "Indemnity Notice") with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. The failure by any Indemnified Party to give the Indemnity Notice shall not impair such party's rights hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that it has been irreparably prejudiced thereby. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it does not dispute the claim or the amount of the claim described in such Indemnity Notice or fails to notify the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period whether the Indemnifying Party disputes the claim or the amount of the claim described in such Indemnity Notice, the amount of Damages specified in the Indemnity Notice will be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under paragraph (a) of this Section and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Damages to the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its liability or the amount of its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute; provided, however, that it the dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days after the Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall be enlisted to institute such legal action as it deems appropriate.

c. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar rights of the indemnified party against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to.

10. JURY TRIAL WAIVER. The Company and the Buyer hereby waive a trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the Parties hereto against the other in respect of any matter arising out or in connection with the Transaction Agreements.

11. GOVERNING LAW: MISCELLANEOUS.

a. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York for contracts to be wholly performed in such state and without giving effect to the principles thereof regarding the conflict of laws. Each of the parties consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts whose districts encompass any part of the County of New York or the state courts of the State of New York sitting in the County of New York in connection with any dispute arising under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Agreements and hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any objection, including any objection based on forum non conveniens, to the bringing of any such proceeding in such jurisdictions. To the extent determined by such court, the Company shall reimburse the Buyer for any reasonable legal fees and disbursements incurred by the Buyer in enforcement of or protection of any of its rights under any of the Transaction Agreements.

b. Failure of any party to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement or otherwise, or delay by a party in exercising such right or remedy, shall not operate as a waiver thereof.

c. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of each of the parties hereto.

d. All pronouns and any variations thereof refer to the masculine, feminine or neuter, singular or plural, as the context may require.

e. A facsimile transmission of this signed Agreement shall be legal and binding on all parties hereto.

f. This Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original.

g. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement.

h. 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.

i. This Agreement may be amended only by an instrument in writing signed by the party to be charged with enforcement thereof.

j. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

12. NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing (unless otherwise specified herein) and shall be deemed effectively given on the earliest of
