Item 1.01. Entry into Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 12, 2008 (the “Closing Date”), Emerald Dairy Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with an accredited investor (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Company may sell, in one or more closings to occur on or prior to June 30, 2008 (each, a “Closing”), up to a maximum of (a) $3,000,000 of 8% promissory notes (the “Notes”) and (b) three-year warrants to purchase 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, at an exercise price of $2.61 per share (the “Warrants”) (the “Offering”).

As of the Closing Date, the Investor purchased, for a purchase price of $1,500,000 (the “Offering Proceeds”), (a) a Note in the principal amount of $1,500,000, and (b) Warrants to purchase 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Purchased Warrants”) (collectively, the “Initial Placement”).

The Company plans to use the Offering Proceeds primarily for: (a) the construction of a new production facility, (b) expenses related to the Offering, and (c) general working capital purposes.

The Notes and Warrants have such characteristics as are further described in Item 3.02 below, which disclosure is incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the form of Note is annexed hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the form of Warrant is annexed hereto as Exhibit 4.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

In connection with the Initial Placement, the Company has paid a placement agent (the “Placement Agent”) a commission of 6.5% of the Offering Proceeds. In addition, the Company has agreed to deliver to the Placement Agent 3% in warrants, which have the same terms and conditions as the Purchased Warrants.

The Company has granted the Investor and Placement Agent “piggyback” registration rights with respect to the shares underlying the warrants they received in connection with the Offering.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Purchase Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

As of the Closing Date of the Initial Placement (defined in Item 1.01 above), the Company sold to one accredited investor, for a purchase price of $1,500,000, (a) a Note in the principal amount of $1,500,000, and (b) Warrants to purchase 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

The maturity date of the Note is December 31, 2008. The Note will bear interest at a rate of 8% until it becomes due and payable. Any amount of principal or interest which is not paid when due will bear interest at a rate of 12%. The Company may prepay the entire amount due under the Note at any time without penalty, upon 15 days prior written notice. The holder has the right to be prepaid any amounts due under the Note from the proceeds of any future offering by the Company resulting in gross proceeds of $4,500,000 or more. So long as the Company has any obligation under the Note, there are limitations on its ability to: (a) pay dividends or make other distributions on its capital stock; (b) redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire any of its securities; (c) create, incur or assume any liability for borrowed money; (d) sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any significant portion of its assets; (e) lend money, give credit or make advances; or (f) assume, guarantee, endorse, contingently agree to purchase or otherwise become liable upon the obligation of any other person or entity. It shall be deemed an “Event of Default” under the Note if: (a) the Company fails to pay principal or interest when due on the Note; (b) the Company breaches any material covenant or other material term or condition contained in the Note or Purchase Agreement, and such breach continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof; (c) any representation or warranty of the Company made under the Note or the Purchase Agreement shall be false or misleading in any material respect; (d) the Company, or any subsidiary of the Company, shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or such a receiver or trustee shall otherwise be appointed; (e) a money judgment shall be entered against the Company, or any subsidiary of the Company, for more than $250,000, that remains in effect for a period of twenty (20) days; (f) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or liquidation proceedings or other similar proceedings shall be instituted by or against the Company, or any subsidiary of the Company, which are not dismissed within sixty (60) days; or (g) the Company fails to maintain the listing of its common stock on at least one of the OTCBB, the Nasdaq National Market, the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, the New York Stock Exchange, or the American Stock Exchange. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, unless such Event of Default shall have been waived in writing by the holder, the holder may consider the Note immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, and the holder may immediately enforce any and all of its rights and remedies provided in the Note or any other right or remedy afforded by law.

The Warrants represent the right to purchase an aggregate of 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, at an exercise price of $2.61 per share. The Warrants will expire three years after the date of issuance. The Warrants may be exercised for cash only. The number of shares of the Company’s common stock deliverable upon exercise of the Warrants will be subject to adjustment for, among other things, subdivision or consolidation of shares, and certain other standard dilutive events. The holder will not be entitled to exercise a number of Warrants in excess of the number of Warrants upon exercise of which would result in beneficial ownership by the holder and its affiliates of more than 9.9% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, unless this provision is waived by written agreement between the holder and the Company not less than sixty-one (61) days from the date of such waiver.

The Company believes that this transaction is exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4(2), or Regulation D promulgated thereunder, as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering.

EMERALD DAIRY INC.

WARRANT TO PURCHASE __________ SHARES OF

COMMON STOCK, PAR VALUE $0.001 PER SHARE

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, ____________________ (“Warrantholder”), is entitled to purchase, subject to the provisions of this Warrant, from Emerald Dairy Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Company”), at any time not later than 5:00 P.M., Eastern time, on the Expiration Date (as defined above), at an exercise price per share equal to $2.61 (the exercise price in effect being herein called the “Warrant Price”), __________ shares (“Warrant Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”). The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as described herein. This Warrant is being issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of June __, 2008 (the “Purchase Agreement”), among the Company and the initial holders of the Company Warrants (as defined below). Capitalized terms used herein have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Purchase Agreement unless otherwise defined herein.

Section 1.Registration. The Company shall maintain books for the transfer and registration of the Warrant. Upon the initial issuance of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and register the Warrant in the name of the Warrantholder.

Section 2.Transfers. As provided herein, this Warrant may be transferred only pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or an exemption from such registration. Subject to such restrictions, the Company shall transfer this Warrant from time to time upon the books to be maintained by the Company for that purpose, upon surrender hereof for transfer, properly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instructions for transfer and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Company, including, if required by the Company, an opinion of its counsel to the effect that such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, to establish that such transfer is being made in accordance with the terms hereof, and a new Warrant shall be issued to the transferee and the surrendered Warrant shall be canceled by the Company.

Section 3.Exercise of Warrant. Subject to the provisions hereof, the Warrantholder may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, at any time prior to its expiration upon surrender of the Warrant, together with delivery of a duly executed Warrant exercise form, in the form attached hereto as “Appendix A” (the “Exercise Agreement”) and payment by cash, certified check or wire transfer of funds of the aggregate Warrant Price for that number of Warrant Shares then being purchased, to the Company during normal business hours on any business day at the Company’s principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the Warrantholder). The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued to the Warrantholder or the Warrantholder’s designee, as the record owner of such shares, as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered (or the date evidence of loss, theft or destruction thereof and security or indemnity satisfactory to the Company has been provided to the Company), the Warrant Price shall have been paid and the completed Exercise Agreement shall have been delivered. Certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the Warrantholder within a reasonable time, not exceeding three (3) business days, after this Warrant shall have been so exercised. The certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be requested by the Warrantholder and shall be registered in the name of the Warrantholder or such other name as shall be designated by the Warrantholder, as specified in the Exercise Agreement. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has expired, the Company shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of such certificates, deliver to the Warrantholder a new Warrant representing the right to purchase the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised. As used herein, “business day” means a day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which banks in New York City are open for the general transaction of business. Each exercise hereof shall constitute the re-affirmation by the Warrantholder that the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 of the Purchase Agreement are true and correct in all material respects with respect to the Warrantholder as of the time of such exercise.

Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary, in no event shall the Holder of this Warrant be entitled to exercise a number of Warrants (or portions thereof) in excess of the number of Warrants (or portions thereof) upon exercise of which the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unexercised Warrants and the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein) and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (or portions thereof) with respect to which the determination described herein is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13D-G thereunder, except as otherwise provided in clause (i) of the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the limitation on exercise of this Warrant may be waived by written agreement between the Holder and the Company; provided, however, such waiver may not be effective less than sixty-one (61) days from the date thereof.

- 2 -

Section 4.Compliance with the Securities Act of 1933. Except as provided in the Purchase Agreement, the Company may cause the legend set forth on the first page of this Warrant to be set forth on each Warrant, and a similar legend on any security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, unless counsel for the Company is of the opinion as to any such security that such legend is unnecessary.

Section 5.Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay any documentary stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the Warrantholder in respect of which such shares are issued, and in such case, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate for Warrant Shares or any Warrant until the person requesting the same has paid to the Company the amount of such tax or has established to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction that such tax has been paid. The Warrantholder shall be responsible for income taxes due under federal, state or other law, if any such tax is due.

Section 6.Mutilated or Missing Warrants. In case this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Company shall issue in exchange and substitution of and upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution for the Warrant lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant of like tenor and for the purchase of a like number of Warrant Shares, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction of the Warrant, and with respect to a lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant, reasonable indemnity or bond with respect thereto, if requested by the Company.

Section 7.Reservation of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of providing for the exercise of the Company Warrants, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time equal the number of shares sufficient to permit the exercise of the Company Warrants in accordance with their respective terms. The Company agrees that all Warrant Shares issued upon due exercise of the Warrant shall be, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such Warrant Shares, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of the Company.

Section 8.Adjustments. Subject and pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8, the Warrant Price and number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth hereinafter.

(a)If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time while this Warrant is outstanding, pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares or combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or issue by reclassification of its outstanding shares of Common Stock any shares of its capital stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation), then (i) the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective shall be adjusted by multiplying such Warrant Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such change and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such change and (ii) the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective by a fraction, the numerator of which is shall be the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the date on which such change shall become effective and the denominator of which shall be the Warrant Price in effect immediately after giving effect to such change, calculated in accordance with clause (i) above. Such adjustments shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur.

(b)If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation in which the Company is not the survivor, or sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another corporation shall be effected, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby each Warrantholder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions herein specified and in lieu of the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as would have been issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of each Warrantholder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provision for adjustment of the Warrant Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Warrantholder, at the last address of the Warrantholder appearing on the books of the Company, such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Warrantholder may be entitled to purchase, and the other obligations under this Warrant.

(c)In case the Company shall fix a payment date for the making of a distribution to all holders of Common Stock (including any such distribution made in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation) of evidences of indebtedness or assets (other than cash dividends or cash distributions payable out of consolidated earnings or earned surplus or dividends or distributions referred to in Section 8(a)), or subscription rights or warrants, the Warrant Price to be in effect after such payment date shall be determined by multiplying the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such payment date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by the Market Price (as defined below) per share of Common Stock immediately prior to such payment date, less the fair market value (as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors in good faith) of said assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed, or of such subscription rights or warrants, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding multiplied by such Market Price per share of Common Stock immediately prior to such payment date. “Market Price” as of a particular date (the “Valuation Date”) shall mean the following: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed on a national stock exchange, the closing sale price of one share of Common Stock on such exchange on the last trading day prior to the Valuation Date; (b) if the Common Stock is then quoted on The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (“Nasdaq”), the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. OTC Bulletin Board (the “Bulletin Board”) or such similar quotation system or association, the closing sale price of one share of Common Stock on Nasdaq, the Bulletin Board or such other quotation system or association on the last trading day prior to the Valuation Date or, if no such closing sale price is available, the average of the high bid and the low asked price quoted thereon on the last trading day prior to the Valuation Date; or (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed on a national stock exchange or quoted on Nasdaq, the Bulletin Board or such other quotation system or association, the fair market value of one share of Common Stock as of the Valuation Date, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company and the Warrantholder. If the Common Stock is not then listed on a national securities exchange, Nasdaq the Bulletin Board or such other quotation system or association, the Board of Directors of the Company shall respond promptly, in writing, to an inquiry by the Warrantholder prior to the exercise hereunder as to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company. In the event that the Board of Directors of the Company and the Warrantholder are unable to agree upon the fair market value in respect of subpart (c) of this paragraph, the Company and the Warrantholder shall jointly select an appraiser, who is experienced in such matters. The decision of such appraiser shall be final and conclusive, and the cost of such appraiser shall be borne equally by the Company and the Warrantholder. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a payment date is fixed.

(d)An adjustment to the Warrant Price shall become effective immediately after the payment date in the case of each dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date of each other event which requires an adjustment.

(e)In the event that, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 8, the Warrantholder shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, the number of such other shares so receivable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject thereafter to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Warrant Shares contained in this Warrant.

(f)To the extent permitted by applicable law and the listing requirements of any stock market or exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed, the Company from time to time may decrease the Warrant Price by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least twenty (20) days, the decrease is irrevocable during the period and the Board shall have made a determination that such decrease would be in the best interests of the Company, which determination shall be conclusive. Whenever the Warrant Price is decreased pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Company shall provide written notice thereof to the Warrantholder at least five (5) days prior to the date the decreased Warrant Price takes effect, and such notice shall state the decreased Warrant Price and the period during which it will be in effect.

- 5 -

Section 9.Fractional Interest. The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant. If any fractional share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of the first sentence of this Section 9, be deliverable upon such exercise, the Company, in lieu of delivering such fractional share, shall pay to the exercising Warrantholder an amount in cash equal to the Market Price of such fractional share of Common Stock on the date of exercise.

Section 10.Benefits. Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation (other than the Company and the Warrantholder) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim, it being agreed that this Warrant shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company and the Warrantholder.

Section 11.Notices to Warrantholder. Upon the happening of any event requiring an adjustment of the Warrant Price, the Company shall promptly give written notice thereof to the Warrantholder at the address appearing in the records of the Company, stating the adjusted Warrant Price and the adjusted number of Warrant Shares resulting from such event and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. Failure to give such notice to the Warrantholder or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of the subject adjustment.

Section 12.Identity of Transfer Agent. The Transfer Agent for the Common Stock is Computershare, Inc., located at 350 Indiana Street, Suite 800, Golden, CO 80401. Upon the appointment of any subsequent transfer agent for the Common Stock or other shares of the Company’s capital stock issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by the Warrant, the Company will mail to the Warrantholder a statement setting forth the name and address of such transfer agent.

Section 13.Notices. Unless otherwise provided, any notice required or permitted under this Warrant shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given as hereinafter described (i) if given by personal delivery, then such notice shall be deemed given upon such delivery, (ii) if given by telex or facsimile, then such notice shall be deemed given upon receipt of confirmation of complete transmittal, (iii) if given by mail, then such notice shall be deemed given upon the earlier of (A) receipt of such notice by the recipient or (B) three days after such notice is deposited in first class mail, postage prepaid, and (iv) if given by an internationally recognized overnight air courier, then such notice shall be deemed given one business day after delivery to such carrier.

(i)Each holder of Warrants or Warrant Shares is hereby granted the right to “piggyback” the Warrant Shares issuable and/or issued upon exercise of the Warrants (such shares being referred to herein as “Registrable Securities”) on each registration statement filed by the Company so long as the registration form to be used is suitable for the registration of the Registrable Securities (a “Piggyback Registration”) (it being understood that the Form S-8 and Form S-4 may not be used for such purposes), all at the Company’s cost and expense (except commissions or discounts and fees of any of the holders’ own professionals, if any; it being understood that the Company shall not be obligated to pay the fees of more than one counsel for the holders of the Registrable Securities); provided, however, that this paragraph (i) shall not apply to any Registrable Securities if such Registrable Securities may then be sold within a six (6) month period under Rule 144 (assuming the holder’s compliance with the provisions of the Rule) and the Company delivers an opinion to that effect to the transfer agent; and provided, further,that if the offering with respect to which a registration statement is filed is an underwritten primary or secondary offering of the Company’s securities and the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that in its opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting such underwriter’s ability to effect an orderly distribution of such securities or otherwise adversely effecting such offering (including, without limitation, causing a diminution in the offering price of the Company’s securities) the Company will include in such registration statement: (A) first, the securities being sold for the account of the Company; (B) second, the number of securities with respect to which the Company has granted rights to participate in such registration (including the Registrable Securities) that, in the opinion of such underwriter, can be sold pro rata among the respective holders of such securities on the basis of the amount of such securities then owned by each such holder. The Company shall give each holder of Registrable Securities at least fifteen (15) days written notice of the intended filing date of any registration statement, other than a registration statement filed on Form S-4 or Form S-8 and each holder of Registrable Securities shall have seven (7) days after receipt of such notice to notify the Company of its intent to include the Registrable Securities in the registration statement.

(ii)If, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register or to delay registration of such securities, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to all holders of the Registrable Securities and (A) in the case of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such abandoned registration and (B) in the case of a determination to delay such registration of its securities, shall be permitted to delay the registration of such Registrable Securities for the same period as the delay in registering such other Company securities.

(b)Expenses. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the Registrable Securities (except any underwriters’ discounts and commissions and fees of any of the holders’ own professionals, if any; it being understood that the Company shall not be obligated to pay the fees of more than one counsel for the holders of the Registrable Securities). The Company agrees to use its best efforts to cause the filing required herein to become effective promptly and to qualify to register the Registrable Securities in such States as are reasonably requested by the holder(s); provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be required to register the Registrable Securities in a State in which such registration would cause (i) the Company to be obligated to register or license to do business in such State, or (ii) the principal stockholders of the Company to be obligated to escrow any of their shares of capital stock of the Company.

- 20 -

(c)Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each holder of the Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to any Registration Statement hereunder and each of such holder’s officers, directors, employees, agents, partners, legal counsel and accountants, and each person, if any, who controls each of the foregoing within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the 1934 Act, as amended, against all loss, claim, damage, expense or liability (including all reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any claim whatsoever incurred by the indemnified party in any action or proceeding between the indemnitor and indemnified party or between the indemnified party and any third party or otherwise) to which any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other statute or at common law or otherwise under laws of foreign countries, arising from such registration statement or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in (i) any preliminary prospectus, registration statement or prospectus (as from time to time each may be amended and supplemented); (ii) in any post-effective amendment or amendments or any new registration statement and prospectus in which is included the Registrable Securities; or (iii) any application or other document or written communication (collectively called “application”) executed by the Company or based upon written information furnished by the Company in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Registrable Securities under the securities laws thereof or filed with the commission, any state securities commission or agency, Nasdaq or any securities exchange; or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; unless such statement or omission is made in reliance upon, and in strict conformity with, written information furnished to the Company with respect to the holders expressly for use in a preliminary prospectus, registration statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or in any application, as the case may be. The Company agrees promptly to notify the holders of the Registrable Securities of the commencement of any litigation proceedings against the Company or any of its officers, directors or controlling persons in connection with the issue and sale or resale of the Registrable Securities or in connection with any such registration statement or prospectus.

8.Survival and Indemnification.

8.1Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

8.2Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Investor and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorney fees and disbursements and other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim or proceeding, pending or threatened and the costs of enforcement thereof) (collectively, “Losses”) to which such Person may become subject as a result of any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by or to be performed on the part of the Company under the Transaction Documents, and will reimburse any such Person for all such amounts as they are incurred by such Person.

- 21 -

8.3Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any Person (the “Indemnified Person”) of notice of any demand, claim or circumstances which would or might give rise to a claim or the commencement of any action, proceeding or investigation in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 8.2, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Company in writing and the Company shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, and shall assume the payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however,that the failure of any Indemnified Person so to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Company is materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless: (i) the Company and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel; or (ii) in the reasonable judgment of counsel to such Indemnified Person representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, but if settled with such consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability (to the extent stated above) by reason of such settlement or judgment. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Company shall not effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such proceeding.

9.Miscellaneous.

9.1Successors and Assigns.

9.6Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Company and the Investors. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon each holder of any Securities purchased under this Agreement at the time outstanding, each future holder of all such Securities, and the Company.

9.7Publicity.

9.8Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof but shall be interpreted as if it were written so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to the choice of law principles thereof. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located in New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for the purpose of any suit, action, proceeding or judgment relating to or arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Service of process in connection with any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on each party hereto anywhere in the world by the same methods as are specified for the giving of notices under this Agreement. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding and to the laying of venue in such court. Each party hereto irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such courts and irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO REQUEST A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND REPRESENTS THAT COUNSEL HAS BEEN CONSULTED SPECIFICALLY AS TO THIS WAIVER.

9.12Independent Nature of Investors’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Investor under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Investor under any Transaction Document. The decision of each Investor to purchase Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Investor independently of any other Investor. Nothing contained herein or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Investor acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Investor will be acting as agent of such Investor in connection with monitoring its investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents. Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that each of the Investors has been provided with the same Transaction Documents for the purpose of closing a transaction with multiple Investors and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Investor.

9.13Acceptance of Investment. Except as otherwise set forth herein, at any time prior to the Closing Date, the Company, in its sole discretion, may (i) accept or reject any Investor’s purchase of Notes and Warrants in whole or in part, or (ii) allot to any Investor a lesser number of Notes and Warrants than the number of Notes and Warrants set forth on the Investor’s signature page attached hereto.
