Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the case may be, could not, individually or in the aggregate, (x) adversely affect the legality, validity or enforceability of the -2- 3 Securities (as defined below) or any of this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Certificate of Designation, the Transfer Agent Instructions or the Warrants (collectively, the "Transaction Documents"), (y) have or result in a material adverse effect on the results of operations, assets, prospects, or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (z) adversely impair the Company's ability to perform fully on a timely basis its obligations under any of the Transaction Documents (any of (x), (y) or (z), a "Material Adverse Effect").

In connection with any transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or to the Company, except as otherwise set forth herein, the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Securities under the Securities Act. Any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights of a Purchaser under this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement. (b) The Purchasers agree to the imprinting, so long as is required by this Section 3.1(b), of the following legend on the Securities: NEITHER THESE SECURITIES [NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE [CONVERTIBLE] [EXERCISABLE] HAVE BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

The Company shall cause its counsel to issue the legal opinion included in the Transfer Agent Instructions to the Company's transfer agent on the day that the Underlying Shares Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission.

The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company which enlarge the restrictions of transfer set forth in this Section. 3.2 Acknowledgment of Dilution. The Company acknowledges that the issuance of the Underlying Shares upon (i) conversion of the Shares in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Designation, and (ii) exercise of the Warrants in accordance with their terms, will result in dilution of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, which dilution may be substantial under certain market conditions. The Company further acknowledges that its obligation to issue Underlying Shares upon (x) conversion of the Shares in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Designation, and (y) exercise of the Warrants in accordance with their terms, is unconditional and absolute, subject to the limitations set forth herein, in the Certificate of Designation or pursuant to the Warrants, regardless of the effect of any such dilution. 3.3 Furnishing of Information.

Upon the request of any such Person, the Company shall deliver to such Person a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements. 3.4 Integration. The Company shall not, and shall use its best efforts to ensure that, no Affiliate of the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise -11- 12 negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Securities to the Purchasers. 3.5 Increase in Authorized Shares. If on any date the Company would be, if a notice of conversion or exercise (as the case may be) were to be delivered on such date, precluded from issuing (a) the number of Underlying Shares as would then be issuable upon a conversion in full of the Shares, and (b) of the number of Underlying Shares as would then be issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (the "Current Required Minimum"), in either case, due to the unavailability of a sufficient number of authorized but unissued or reserved shares of Common Stock, then the Board of Directors of the Company shall promptly prepare and mail to the stockholders of the Company proxy materials requesting authorization to amend the Company's certificate or articles of incorporation to increase the number of shares of Common Stock which the Company is authorized to issue to at least such number of shares as reasonably requested by the Purchasers in order to provide for such number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock to enable the Company to comply with its issuance, conversion, exercise and reservation of shares obligations as set forth in this Agreement, the Certificate of Designation and the Warrants (the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding plus all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of all outstanding options, warrants and convertible instruments, and (y) the Current Required Minimum, shall be a reasonable number). In connection therewith, the Board of Directors shall (a) adopt proper resolutions authorizing such increase, (b) recommend to and otherwise use its best efforts to promptly and duly obtain stockholder approval to carry out such resolutions (and hold a special meeting of the stockholders no later than the earlier to occur of the 60th day after delivery of the proxy materials relating to such meeting and the 90th day after request by a holder of Securities to issue the number of Underlying Shares in accordance with the terms hereof) and (c) within five Business Days of obtaining such stockholder authorization, file an appropriate amendment to the Company's certificate or articles of incorporation to evidence such increase. 3.6 Reservation and Listing of Underlying Shares. (a) If, after the date hereof, the Company shall list the Common Stock on any of the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange, Nasdaq National Market or Nasdaq SmallCap Market (each, a "Subsequent Market"), then the Company shall include in such listing for the benefit of the Purchasers for issuance upon exercise of the Warrants and conversion of the Shares a number of shares of Common Stock equal to not less than the then Current Required Minimum. If the number of Underlying Shares issuable upon conversion in full of the then outstanding Shares, as payment of dividends thereon, and upon exercise of the then unexercised portion of the Warrants exceed the number of Underlying Shares previously listed on account thereof with a Subsequent Market, then the Company shall take the necessary actions to immediately list a number of Underlying Shares as equals no less than the then Current Required Minimum. (b) The Company shall maintain a reserve of shares of Common Stock for issuance upon conversion of the Shares in full and upon exercise in full of the Warrants in accordance with this Agreement, the Certificate of Designation and the Warrants, respectively, in -12- 13 such amount as may be required to fulfill its obligations in full under the Transaction Documents, which reserve shall equal no less than the then Current Required Minimum. 3.7 Conversion and Exercise Obligations and Procedures. The Company shall honor conversion of the Shares and exercise of the Warrants and shall deliver Underlying Shares in accordance with the respective terms, conditions and time periods set forth in the Certificate of Designation and Warrants. The Transfer Agent Instructions, Conversion Notice (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) and Notice of Exercise under the Warrants set forth the totality of the procedures with respect to the conversion of the Shares and exercise of the Warrants, including the form of legal opinion, if necessary, that shall be rendered to the Company's transfer agent and such other information and instructions as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Purchasers to convert their Shares and exercise their Warrants as contemplated in the Certificate of Designation and the Warrants (as applicable). 3.8 Subsequent Financing; Limitation on Registrations. (a) From the date of this Agreement through the first to occur of (i) the date on which an Underlying Shares Registration Statement is first declared effective by the Commission (such date, the "Effective Date") and (ii) the 150th day following the Closing Date, other than to the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will not offer, sell, grant any option to purchase or any right to reprice securities, or otherwise dispose of (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any Common Stock or equity or equity equivalent securities (including the issuance of any debt or other instrument that is at any time over the life thereof convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock), and the Company will cause its Subsidiaries not to offer, sell or issue during such period any of such Subsidiary's securities which provide the holder thereof the right to receive any Common Stock (collectively, "Common Stock Equivalents"). (b) From the date of this Agreement through the 360th day following the Closing Date other than to the Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will not offer, sell, grant any option to purchase or any right to reprice securities, or otherwise dispose of (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (collectively, a "Subsequent Placement"), unless (A) the Company delivers to each of the Purchasers a written notice (the "Subsequent Placement Notice") of its intention to effect such Subsequent Placement, which Subsequent Placement Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Subsequent Placement, the amount of proceeds intended to be raised thereunder, the Person with whom such Subsequent Placement shall be effected, and attached to which shall be a term sheet or similar document relating thereto and (B) such Purchaser shall not have notified the Company by 6:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the tenth Trading Day after its receipt of the Subsequent Placement Notice of its willingness to provide (or to cause its sole designee to provide), subject to completion of mutually acceptable documentation, financing to the Company on the same terms set forth in the Subsequent Placement Notice. If the Purchasers shall fail to notify the Company of their intention to enter into such negotiations within such time period, the Company may effect the Subsequent Placement substantially upon the terms and to the Persons (or Affiliates of such Persons) set forth in the Subsequent Placement Notice; provided, that the Company shall provide -13- 14 the Purchasers with a second Subsequent Placement Notice, and the Purchasers shall again have the right of first refusal set forth above in this paragraph (a), if the Subsequent Placement subject to the initial Subsequent Placement Notice shall not have been consummated for any reason on the terms set forth in such Subsequent Placement Notice within 30 Trading Days after the date of the initial Subsequent Placement Notice with the Person (or an Affiliate of such Person) identified in the Subsequent Placement Notice. If the Purchasers shall indicate a willingness to provide financing in excess of the amount set forth in the Subsequent Placement Notice, then each Purchaser shall be entitled to provide financing pursuant to such Subsequent Placement Notice up to an amount equal to such Purchaser's pro-rata portion of the aggregate number of Shares purchased by such Purchaser under this Agreement, but the Company shall not be required to accept financing from the Purchasers in an amount in excess of the amount set forth in the Subsequent Placement Notice. (c) Except for (x) Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), (y) securities of the Company permitted pursuant to Section 6(c) of the Registration Rights Agreement to be registered in the Underlying Shares Registration Statement, and (z) Common Stock permitted to be issued pursuant to Section 3.8(e), the Company may not until the 180th day after the Effective Date (i) issue or sell any of its or any of its respective Affiliates' equity or equity-equivalent securities pursuant to Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act, or (ii) file a registration statement to register any of its securities. (d) With respect to Sections 3.8(a), (b) and (c), restrictive periods shall be extended for the number of Trading Days during such period (A) in which trading in the Common Stock is suspended by any securities exchange or market or quotation system on which the Common Stock is then listed, or (B) that the Underlying Shares Registration Statement is not effective following the Effective Date, or (C) that the prospectus included in the Underlying Shares Registration Statement may not be used by the holders thereof for the resale of Registrable Securities following the Effective Date. (e) The restrictions contained in Section 3.8(a), (b) and (c) shall not apply to the granting of options or warrants to employees, officers and directors of the Company, and the issuance of Common Stock upon exercise of such options or warrants granted under any stock option plan heretofore or hereinafter duly adopted by the Company. The restrictions contained in Sections 3.8(a) and (b) shall also not apply to (1) shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of any currently outstanding warrants and other outstanding convertible securities of the Company, in each case as and to the extent disclosed in Schedule 2.1(c) (but not as to any amendments or modifications of the terms of such securities after the date of this Agreement, including "back-dated" agreements) and (2) a transaction in which the Company issues shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents to a Person which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company in a business related to the business of the Company and in which the Company receives material benefits in addition to the investment of funds, but shall not include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or is issuing securities to an entity whose primary business is investing in securities. -14- 15 3.9 Certain Securities Laws Disclosures; Publicity.

The Company shall, no less than two Business Days prior to the filing of any disclosure required by clauses (ii) and (iii) above, provide a copy thereof to the Purchasers. The Company and the Purchasers shall consult with each other in issuing any other press releases or otherwise making public statements or filings and other communications with the Commission or any regulatory agency or stock market or trading facility with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and neither party shall issue any such press release or otherwise make any such public statement, filings or other communications without the prior written consent of the other, except if such disclosure is required by law or stock market or trading facility regulation, in which such case the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement, filing or other communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the names of the Purchasers, or include the names of the Purchasers in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency, trading facility or stock market without the prior written consent of the Purchasers, except to the extent such disclosure (but not any disclosure as to the controlling Persons thereof) is required by law or stock market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the Purchasers with prior notice of such disclosure. 3.10 Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder for working capital purposes and not for the satisfaction of any portion of the Company's debt (other than payment of trade payables in the ordinary course of the Company's business and prior practices), to redeem any Company equity or equity-equivalent securities or to settle any outstanding litigation. 3.11 Transfer of Intellectual Property Rights. Except in connection with the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or licensing arrangements in the ordinary course of the Company's business, the Company shall not transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of any Intellectual Property Rights, or allow any of the Intellectual Property Rights to become subject to any Liens, or fail to renew such Intellectual Property Rights (if renewable and it would otherwise lapse if not renewed), without the prior written consent of the Purchasers. 3.12 Reimbursement. If any Purchaser becomes involved in any capacity in any action, proceeding or investigation brought by or against any Person, including stockholders of the Company, solely as a result of acquiring the Securities under this Agreement, the Company will reimburse such Purchaser for its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the cost of any investigation, preparation and travel in connection therewith) not to exceed $200,000 incurred in connection therewith, as such expenses are incurred. The 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 Purchasers who are actually named in such action, proceeding or investigation, and partners, directors, agents, employees and controlling persons (if any), as the case may be, of the -15- 16 Purchasers 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 Purchasers and any such Affiliate and any such Person. The Company also agrees that neither the Purchasers nor any such Affiliates, partners, directors, agents, employees or controlling persons shall have any liability to the Company or any Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of the Company solely as a result of acquiring the Securities under this Agreement. 3.13 Exclusivity. The Company shall not issue and sell the Shares to any Person other than to the Purchasers. 3.14 Shareholder Rights Plan. No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or any other Person that any Purchaser is an "Acquiring Person" under any shareholders rights plan or similar plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company, or that any Purchaser could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or arrangement, by virtue of receiving Securities or shares of Common Stock under the Transaction Documents. 3.15 Trading Restrictions. Each Purchaser agrees that as long as such Purchaser holds Shares, such Purchaser will not enter into any Short Sales (as defined herein). For purposes hereof, a "Short Sale" by a Purchaser shall mean a marked "short sale" of Common Stock by such Purchaser that is made at a time when there is no equivalent offsetting long position in the Common Stock held by such Purchaser. For purposes of determining whether there is an equivalent offsetting long position in the Common Stock held by a Purchaser, Underlying Shares issuable upon exercises of Warrants and upon delivered Conversion Notices under the Shares shall be deemed to be held long by such Purchaser. However, the restrictions against Short Sales contained in this Section shall expire and become of no further force or effect from and after such date, if any, as the Company breaches any of its conversion, exercise, registration or other material obligations under the Transaction Documents (including, any failure of the Effective Date to occur by the 75th day following the Closing Date).

No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right accruing to it thereafter. -17- 18 4.5 Headings.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. 4.9 Survival. The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery and conversion or exercise (as the case may be) of the Shares and of the Warrants. 4.10 Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together 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, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart.
