8.1.    Registration Rights.    The Company hereby grants the following registration rights to holders of the Securities.
 
(i)    On one occasion, for a period commencing 91 days after the Closing Date, but not later than three years after the Closing Date (“Request Date”), the Company, upon a written request therefor from any record holder or holders of more than 50% of the Company Shares issued hereunder (the Company Shares issued hereunder on the Closing Date and an amount of Second Closing Shares (as defined in Section 9) which would be issued if the Closing Date were the Second Closing Date (as defined in Section 9), and each share of common stock issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, collectively the “Registrable Securities”), shall prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement under the 1933 Act covering the Registrable Securities which are the subject of such request, unless such Registrable Securities are the subject of an effective registration statement or included for registration in a pending registration statement. In addition, upon the receipt of such request, the Company shall promptly give written notice to all other record holders of the Registrable Securities that such registration statement is to be filed and shall include in such registration statement Registrable Securities for which it has received written requests within 10 days after the Company gives such written notice. Such other requesting record holders shall be deemed to have exercised their demand registration right under this Section 8.1(i). As a condition precedent to the inclusion of Registrable Securities, the holder thereof shall provide the Company with such information as the Company reasonably requests. The obligation of the Company under this Section 8.1(i) shall be limited to one registration statement.
 
(ii)    If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its securities under the 1933 Act for sale to the public, whether for its own account or for the account of other security holders or both, except with respect to registration statements on Forms S-4, S-8 or another form not available for registering the Registrable Securities for sale to the public, provided the Registrable Securities are not otherwise registered for resale by the Subscriber or Holder pursuant to an effective registration statement, each such time it will give at least 15 days’ prior written notice to the record holder of the Registrable Securities of its intention so to do. Upon the written request of the holder, received by the Company within 10 days after the giving of any such notice by the Company, to register any of the Registrable Securities, the Company will cause such Registrable Securities as to which registration shall have been so requested to be included with the securities to be covered by the registration statement proposed to be filed by the Company, all to the extent required to permit the sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities so registered by the holder of such Registrable Securities (the “Seller”). In the event that any registration pursuant to this Section 8.1(ii) shall be, in whole or in part, an underwritten public offering of common stock of the Company, the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in such an underwriting may be reduced by the managing underwriter if and to the extent that the Company and the underwriter shall reasonably be of the opinion that such inclusion would adversely affect the marketing of the securities to be sold by the Company therein; provided, however, that the Company shall notify the Seller in writing of any such reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, or Section 8.4 hereof, the Company may withdraw or delay or suffer a delay of any registration statement referred to in this Section 8.1(ii) without thereby incurring any liability to the Seller.

10


 
(iii)    If, at the time any written request for registration is received by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(i), the Company has determined to proceed with the actual preparation and filing of a registration statement under the 1933 Act in connection with the proposed offer and sale for cash of any of its securities for the Company’s own account and the Company actually does file such other registration statement, such written request shall be deemed to have been given pursuant to Section 8.1(ii) rather than Section 8.1(i), and the rights of the holders of Registrable Securities covered by such written request shall be governed by Section 8.1(ii).
 
(iv)    The Company shall file with the Commission not later than thirty (30) business days after the Closing Date (the “Filing Date”), and use its reasonable commercial efforts to cause to be declared effective within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date (the “Effective Date”), a registration statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) (or such other form that it is eligible to use) in order to register the Registrable Securities for resale and distribution under the 1933 Act. The Company will register not less than a number of shares of common stock in the aforedescribed registration statement that is equal to the number of Company Shares issued on the Closing Date and Second Closing Shares which would be issuable on the Closing Date as if the Closing Date were also the Second Closing Date and one share of common stock for each of the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The Registrable Securities shall be reserved and set aside exclusively for the benefit of the Subscribers, and not issued, employed or reserved for anyone other than the Subscribers. Such registration statement will immediately be amended or additional registration statements will be immediately filed by the Company as necessary to register additional Company Shares to allow the public resale of all Common Stock included in and issuable by virtue of the Registrable Securities. No securities of the Company other than the Registrable Securities will be included in the registration statement described in this Section 8.1(iv) or in any other registration prior to the actual effective date of the registration statement described in this Section 8.1(iv) except as disclosed on Schedule 8.1, without the written consent of the Subscribers.
 
8.2.    Registration Procedures.    If and whenever the Company is required by the provisions hereof to effect the registration of any shares of Registrable Securities under the 1933 Act, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:
 
(a)    prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement required by Section 8.1, with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective for the period of the distribution contemplated thereby (determined as herein provided), and promptly provide to the holders of Registrable Securities (“Sellers”) copies of all filings and Commission letters of comment;
 
(b)    prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective until the later of: (i) until twelve months after all the Company Shares are eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the 1933 Act; (ii) until such registration statement has been effective for a period of not less than 365 days; or (iii) all Registrable Securities are sold by the Subscribers and are not subject to further volume restrictions on transfer, and comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement in accordance with the Seller’s intended method of disposition set forth in such registration statement for such period;

11


 
(c)    furnish to the Seller, at the Company’s expense, such number of copies of the registration statement and the prospectus included therein (including each preliminary prospectus) as such persons reasonably may request in order to facilitate the public sale or their disposition of the securities covered by such registration statement;
 
(d)    use its best efforts to register or qualify the Seller’s Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under the securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions as the Seller, provided, however, that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to transact business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;
 
(e)    list the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement with any securities exchange on which the common stock of the Company is then listed;
 
(f)    immediately notify the Seller when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act, of the happening of any event of which the Company has knowledge as a result of which the prospectus contained in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing;
 
(g)    provided same would not be in violation of the provision of Regulation FD under the 1934 Act, make available for inspection by the Seller, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Seller or underwriter, all publicly available, non-confidential financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all publicly available, non-confidential information reasonably requested by the seller, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration statement.
 
8.3.    Provision of Documents.    In connection with each registration described in this Section 8, the Seller will furnish to the Company in writing such information and representation letters with respect to itself and the proposed distribution by it as reasonably shall be necessary in order to assure compliance with federal and applicable state securities laws. In connection with each registration pursuant to Section 8.1(i) or 8.1(ii) covering an underwritten public offering, the Company and the Seller agree to enter into a written agreement with the managing underwriter in such form and containing such provisions as are customary in the securities business for such an arrangement between such underwriter and companies of the Company’s size and investment stature.
 
8.4.    Non-Registration Events.    The Company and the Subscribers agree that the Sellers will suffer damages if any registration statement required under Section 8.1(i) or 8.1(ii) above is not filed within 60 days after written request by the Holder and not declared effective by the Commission within 120 days after such request, or the Filing Date and Effective Date, respectively, in reference to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 or such other form described in Section 8.1(iv), and maintained in the manner and within the time periods contemplated by Section 8 hereof, and it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision. Accordingly, if (i) the Registration Statement described in Sections 8.1(i) or 8.1(ii) is not filed within 60 days of such written request, or is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the date that is 120 days after such request, or (ii) the registration statement on Form S-3 or such other form described in Section 8.1(iv) is not filed on or before the Filing Date or not declared effective on or before the sooner of the Effective Date, or within ten (10) business days of receipt by the Company of a written or oral

12


communication from the Commission that the registration statement described in Section 8.1(iv) will not be reviewed, or (iii) any registration statement described in Sections 8.1(i), 8.1(ii) or 8.1(iv) is filed and declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be effective (without being succeeded immediately by an additional registration statement filed and declared effective) for a period of time which shall exceed 30 days in the aggregate per year or more than 30 consecutive calendar days (defined as a period of 365 days commencing on the date the Registration Statement is declared effective) (each such event referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 8.4 is referred to herein as a “Non-Registration Event”), then, for so long as such Non-Registration Event shall continue, the Company shall pay in cash as Liquidated Damages to each holder of any Registrable Securities an amount equal to two (2%) percent of the Purchase Price of the Company Shares and actually paid “Purchase Price” (as defined in the Warrant) of the Common Stock issued or issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, per 30 day period, or part thereof (pro rata), during the pendency of such Non-Registration Event for the Registrable Securities owned of record by such holder as of or subsequent to the occurrence of such Non-Registration Event. For purposes of this Section 8.4, the entire Purchase Price is deemed allocated to the Company Shares. Payments to be made pursuant to this Section 8.4 shall be due and payable within ten (10) business days after demand in immediately available funds.
 
8.5.    Expenses.    All expenses incurred by the Company in complying with Section 8, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or “blue sky” laws, fees of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., transfer taxes, fees of transfer agents and registrars, and costs of insurance are called “Registration Expenses”. All underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities, including any fees and disbursements of any special counsel to the Seller, are called “Selling Expenses”. The Seller shall pay the fees of its own additional counsel, if any. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with the registration statement under Section 8. Selling Expenses in connection with each registration statement under Section 8 shall be borne by the Seller and may be apportioned among the Sellers in proportion to the number of shares sold by the Sellers relative to the number of shares sold under such registration statement or as all Sellers thereunder may agree.
 
8.6.    Indemnification and Contribution.
 
(a)    In the event of a registration of any Registrable Securities under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 8, the Company will, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless each Seller, each officer of each Seller, each director of each Seller, each underwriter of such Registrable Securities thereunder and each other person, if any, who controls such Seller or underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Seller, or such underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which such Registrable Securities was registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 8, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances when made, and will subject to the provisions of Section 8.6(c) reimburse such Seller, each such underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to such Seller to the extent that any such damages arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus if (i) such Seller failed to send or deliver a copy of the final prospectus delivered

13


by the Company to such Seller with or prior to the delivery of written confirmation of the sale by such Seller to the person asserting the claim from which such damages arise, (ii) the final prospectus would have corrected such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or such omission or alleged omission, or (iii) to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished by any such Seller, or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus.
 
(b)    In the event of a registration of any of the Registrable Securities under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 8, the Seller will, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act, each officer of the Company who signs the registration statement, each director of the Company, each underwriter and each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such officer, director, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 8, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and each such officer, director, underwriter and controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, provided, however, that such Seller will be liable hereunder in any such case if and only to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information pertaining to such Seller, as such, furnished in writing to the Company by such Seller specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus, and provided, further, however, that the liability of such Seller hereunder shall be limited to the gross proceeds received by such Seller from the sale of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement.
 
(c)    Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party other than under this Section 8.6(c) and shall only relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party under this Section 8.6(c), except and only if and to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 8.6(c) for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel so selected, provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or if the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, the indemnified parties, as a group, shall have the right to select one separate counsel and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred.

14


 
(d)    In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in the event of joint liability under the 1933 Act in any case in which either (i) a Seller, or any controlling person of a Seller, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 8.6 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 8.6 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the 1933 Act may be required on the part of the Seller or controlling person of the Seller in circumstances for which indemnification is not provided under this Section 8.6; then, and in each such case, the Company and the Seller will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion so that the Seller is responsible only for the portion represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its securities offered by the registration statement bears to the public offering price of all securities offered by such registration statement, provided, however, that, in any such case, (y) the Seller will not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such securities offered by it pursuant to such registration statement; and (z) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the 1933 Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
 
8.7.    Delivery of Unlegended Shares.
 
(a)    Within five (5) business days (such fifth business day, the “Delivery Date”) after the business day on which the Company has received a notice that (i) Company Shares have been sold, (ii) a representation that the prospectus delivery requirements, if applicable, have been satisfied, and (iii) and the original Company Share certificate, the Company at its expense, (i) shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver, to its transfer agent (with copies to the selling Subscriber) an appropriate instruction and opinion of such counsel, for the delivery of unlegended Company Shares issuable pursuant to any effective and current registration statement described in Section 8 of this Agreement (the “Unlegended Shares”); and (ii) transmit the certificates representing the Unlegended Shares, with a legended certificate representing the balance of the unsold Company Shares to the selling Subscriber at the address specified in the notice of sale, via express courier, by electronic transfer or otherwise on or before the Delivery Date.
 
(b)    In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Unlegended Shares, if the Company’s transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, upon request of the selling Subscriber and its compliance with the provisions contained in this paragraph, so long as the certificates therefor do not bear a legend and the selling Subscriber is not obligated to return such certificate for the placement of a legend thereon, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Unlegended Shares by crediting the account of the selling Subscriber’s prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system.
 
(c)    The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 8 hereof beyond the Delivery Date could result in economic loss to the Subscriber. As compensation to the Subscriber for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payments to the Subscriber for late delivery of Unlegended Shares in the amount of $100 per business day after the Delivery Date for each $10,000 of Purchase Price of the Company Shares delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares. The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand.

15


 
(d)    In addition to any other rights available to the Subscriber, if the Company fails to deliver to the Subscriber Unlegended Shares within ten (10) calendar days after the Delivery Date and the Subscriber purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of common stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Subscriber of the Company Shares which the Subscriber anticipated receiving from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Subscriber (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the Subscriber) the amount by which (A) the Subscriber’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of common stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate Purchase Price of the Company Shares delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares, together with interest thereon at a rate of 15% per annum, accruing until such amount and any accrued interest thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty). For example, if the Subscriber purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to $10,000 of Purchase Price of Company Shares delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares, the Company shall be required to pay the Subscriber $1,000, plus interest. The Subscriber shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Subscriber in respect of the Buy-In.
 
9.    Second Closing.
 
9.1.    Second Closing Shares.    The Subscribers agree to purchase from the Company and the Company agrees to sell to the Subscriber additional Company Shares (“Second Closing Shares”). The closing date for the purchase of the Second Closing Shares shall be the tenth business day after the Effective Date as defined in Section 8.1(iv) (“Second Closing Date”). The Purchase Price of the Second Closing Shares shall be $378,000 in the aggregate apportioned among the Subscribers in the amounts indicated on the signature page hereto (“Second Closing Purchase Price”). The amount of Second Closing Shares to be sold by the Company and purchased by each Subscriber shall be equal to such Subscriber’s portion of the Second Closing Purchase Price divided by $.18.
 
9.2.    Conditions to Second Closing.    The requirement of each Subscriber to proceed with the Second Closing is expressly contingent on (i) the truth and accuracy, on the Closing Date and Second Closing Date, of the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Section 2 of this Agreement; (ii) the non-occurrence of any Registration Default or other default by the Company of its obligation and undertakings contained in this Agreement; (iii) the delivery of Second Closing Shares that have been included in the registration statement described in Section 8.1(iv), which must be effective as of the Second Closing Date; and (iv) the average closing bid price of the Company’s common stock for the five trading days preceding the aforedescribed effective date being not less than $.23.
 
9.3.    Second Closing Deliveries.    On the Second Closing Date, the Company will deliver the Second Closing Shares, and each Subscriber will deliver its portion of the Second Closing Purchase Price (the “Second Closing”). The Company will deliver a certificate (“Second Closing Certificate”) signed by its chief operating officer and chief financial officer (i) representing the truth and accuracy of all the representations and warranties made by the Company contained in this Agreement, as of the Closing Date, the actual effective date of the Registration Statement and the Second Closing Date as if such representations and warranties were made and given on each of such dates, (ii) adopting the covenants of the Company set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement in relation to the Second Closing Shares, and (iii) representing the timely compliance by the Company with the Company’s registration requirements set forth in Section 8 of this Agreement. A legal opinion nearly identical to the legal opinion referred to in Section 3 of this Agreement shall be delivered to the Subscribers at the Second Closing in relation to the Company and Second Closing Shares (“Second Closing Legal Opinion”). The legal opinion must state that all of the Registrable Securities have been included for registration in an effective registration statement.

16


 
9.4.    Second Closing Finder’s Fee.    The finders identified on Schedule C shall receive from the Company a finder’s fee in connection with the Second Closing in the same proportion as received in connection with the Closing, and on the same terms and conditions as set forth in Section 6(b) of this Agreement.
 
9.5.    Second Closing Limitation.    A Second Closing may not take place in connection with that amount of Second Closing Shares which would be in excess of the sum of (y) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by a Subscriber on the Effective Date, and (z) the number of shares of Second Closing Shares with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made on the Effective Date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Subscriber of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company on the Effective Date. For the purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder. The Subscriber may revoke the restriction described in this paragraph upon 75 days prior notice to the Company. The Subscriber shall have the right to determine which of the equity of the Company deemed beneficially owned by the Subscriber shall be included in the 9.99% described above and which shall be allocated to the excess above 9.99%.
 
10.    Favored Nations Provision.    Until 45 days after the Second Closing Date, but in no event later than 135 days after the Closing Date (the “Exclusion Period”), the Company shall not offer, issue or agree to issue any common stock of the Company or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock of the Company to any person, firm or corporation at a price per share or conversion or exercise price per share which shall be less than $.18 without the consent of each Subscriber still holding Securities during the Exclusion Period, except for (i) employee stock options, (ii) as full or partial consideration in connection with any merger, consolidation or purchase of substantially all of the securities or assets of any corporation or other entity, or (iii) any sale in connection with the exercise of warrants or options or the conversion of a convertible security or other right to acquire stock disclosed in the Reports or Other Written Information filed or delivered prior to the Closing Date (collectively “Excepted Issuances”), then the Company shall issue for each such occasion additional Company Shares to the Subscriber so that the average per share purchase price of the Company Shares issued to the Subscriber is equal to such other lower price per share. The Warrant “Purchase Price” shall be reduced to equal such other lower purchase price. The delivery to the Subscriber of the additional Company Shares and the effective date of the reduction of the Warrant “Purchase Price” shall be not later than the closing date of the transaction giving rise to the requirement to issue additional Company Shares or Warrant “Purchase Price” reduction. The Subscriber is granted the registration rights described in Section 8 hereof in relation to such additional Company Shares and Warrants except that the Filing Date and Effective Date vis-à-vis such additional common shares and common shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant shall be respectively the sixtieth (60th) and one hundred and twentieth (120th) date after the closing date giving rise to the requirement to issue the additional Company Shares and Warrant “Purchase Price” reduction. For purposes of the issuance and adjustment described in this paragraph, the issuance of any security of the Company carrying the right to convert such security into shares of common stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase common stock shall result in the issuance of the additional Company Shares and an adjustment to the Warrant “Purchase Price” upon the issuance of such convertible security, warrant, right or option and again upon any subsequent issuances of shares of common stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights if such issuance is at a price lower than the then purchase price per share of the Company Shares or Warrant “Purchase Price.”

1.2.    Full Exercise.    This Warrant may be exercised in full by the Holder by delivery of an original or facsimile copy of the form of subscription attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Subscription Form”) duly executed by such Holder and surrender of the original Warrant within seven (7) days of exercise, to the Company at its principal office or at the office of its Warrant Agent (as provided hereinafter), accompanied by payment, in cash, wire transfer or by certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company, in the amount obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is then exercisable by the Purchase Price then in effect.
 
1.3.    Partial Exercise.    This Warrant may be exercised in part (but not for a fractional share) by surrender of this Warrant in the manner and at the place provided in subsection 1.2 except that the amount payable by the Holder on such partial exercise shall be the amount obtained by multiplying (a) the number of shares of Common Stock designated by the Holder in the Subscription Form by (b) the Purchase Price then in effect. On any such partial exercise, the Company, at its expense, will forthwith issue and deliver to or upon the order of the Holder a new Warrant of like tenor, in the name of the Holder or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, the number of shares of Common Stock for which such Warrant may still be exercised.
 
1.4.    Fair Market Value.    Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of a particular date (the “Determination Date”) shall mean the Fair Market Value of a share of the Company’s Common Stock. Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of a Determination Date shall mean:
 
(a)    If the Company’s Common Stock is traded on an exchange or is quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Automated Quotation (“NASDAQ”) National Market System, the NASDAQ SmallCap Market or the American Stock Exchange, Inc., then the closing or last sale price, respectively, reported for the last business day immediately preceding the Determination Date.
 
(b)    If the Company’s Common Stock is not traded on an exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ SmallCap Market or the American Stock Exchange, Inc., but is traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange or in the over-the-counter market, then the mean of the closing bid and asked prices reported for the last business day immediately preceding the Determination Date.
 
(c)    Except as provided in clause (d) below, if the Company’s Common Stock is not publicly traded, then as the Holder and the Company agree or in the absence of agreement, then by arbitration in accordance with the rules then standing of the American Arbitration Association, before a single arbitrator to be chosen from a panel of persons qualified by education and training to pass on the matter to be decided.
 
(d)    If the Determination Date is the date of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or any event deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up pursuant to the Company’s charter, then all amounts to be payable per share to holders of the Common Stock pursuant to the charter in the event of such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, plus all other amounts to be payable per share in respect of the Common Stock in liquidation under the charter, assuming for the purposes of this clause (d) that all of the shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise of all of the Warrants are outstanding at the Determination Date.

2


 
1.5.    Company Acknowledgment.    The Company will, at the time of the exercise of the Warrant, upon the request of the Holder acknowledge in writing its continuing obligation to afford to such Holder any rights to which such Holder shall continue to be entitled after such exercise in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. If the holder shall fail to make any such request, such failure shall not affect the continuing obligation of the Company to afford to such holder any such rights.
 
1.6.    Trustee for Warrant Holders.    In the event that a bank or trust company shall have been appointed as trustee for the holders of the Warrants pursuant to Subsection 3.2, such bank or trust company shall have all the powers and duties of a warrant agent (as hereinafter described) and shall accept, in its own name for the account of the Company or such successor person as may be entitled thereto, all amounts otherwise payable to the Company or such successor, as the case may be, on exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 1.
 
2.    Delivery of Stock Certificates, etc. on Exercise.    The Company agrees that the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to be issued to the Holder as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for such shares as aforesaid. As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within seven (7) days thereafter, the Company at its expense (including the payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in the name of and delivered to the Holder, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct in compliance with applicable securities laws, a certificate or certificates for the number of duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) to which such holder shall be entitled on such exercise, plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which such Holder would otherwise be entitled, cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then Fair Market Value of one full share, together with any other stock or other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) to which such Holder is entitled upon such exercise pursuant to Section 1 or otherwise.
 
3.    Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.
 
3.1.    Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc.    In case at any time or from time to time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b) consolidate with or merge into any other person or (c) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person under any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in each such case, as a condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and adequate provision shall be made by the Company whereby the holder of this Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in lieu of the Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and property (including cash) to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such holder had so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 4.
 
3.2.    Dissolution.    In the event of any dissolution of the Company following the transfer of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, the Company, prior to such dissolution, shall at its expense deliver or cause to be delivered the stock and other securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the holders of the Warrants after the effective date of such dissolution pursuant to this Section 3 to a bank or trust company having its principal office in New York, NY, as trustee for the holder or holders of the Warrants.

3


 
3.3.    Continuation of Terms.    Upon any reorganization, consolidation, merger or transfer (and any dissolution following any transfer) referred to in this Section 3, this Warrant shall continue in full force and effect and the terms hereof shall be applicable to the shares of stock and other securities and property receivable on the exercise of this Warrant after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of dissolution following any such transfer, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon the issuer of any such stock or other securities, including, in the case of any such transfer, the person acquiring all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company, whether or not such person shall have expressly assumed the terms of this Warrant as provided in Section 4. In the event this Warrant does not continue in full force and effect after the consummation of the transaction described in this Section 3, then only in such event will the Company’s securities and property (including cash, where applicable) receivable by the holders of the Warrants be delivered to the Trustee as contemplated by Section 3.2.
 
3.4.    Share Issuance.    If the Company, during the Exclusion Period (as defined in the Subscription Agreement), shall issue any shares of Common Stock except for the Excepted Issuances (as defined in the Subscription Agreement) prior to the complete exercise of this Warrant for a consideration less than the Purchase Price that would be in effect at the time of such issue, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issue, the Purchase Price shall be reduced as follows: (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue shall be multiplied by the Purchase Price in effect at the time of such issue and the product shall be added to the aggregate consideration, if any, received by the Company upon such issue of additional shares of Common Stock; and (ii) the sum so obtained shall be divided by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such issue. The resulting quotient shall be the adjusted Purchase Price. For purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any security of the Company carrying the right to convert such security into shares of Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in an adjustment to the Purchase Price upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights.
 
4.    Extraordinary Events Regarding Common Stock.    In the event that the Company shall (a) issue additional shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution on outstanding Common Stock, (b) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock or (c) combine its outstanding shares of the Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of the Common Stock, then, in each such event, the Purchase Price shall, simultaneously with the happening of such event, be adjusted by multiplying the then Purchase Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the product so obtained shall thereafter be the Purchase Price then in effect. The Purchase Price, as so adjusted, shall be readjusted in the same manner upon the happening of any successive event or events described herein in this Section 4. The number of shares of Common Stock that the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, be entitled to receive shall be increased to a number determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be issuable on such exercise by a fraction of which (a) the numerator is the Purchase Price that would otherwise (but for the provisions of this Section 4) be in effect, and (b) the denominator is the Purchase Price in effect on the date of such exercise.

4


 
5.    Certificate as to Adjustments.    In each case of any adjustment or readjustment in the shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on the exercise of the Warrants, the Company at its expense will promptly cause its Chief Financial Officer or other appropriate designee to compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of the Warrant and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based, including a statement of (a) the consideration received or receivable by the Company for any additional shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold, (b) the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) outstanding or deemed to be outstanding and (c) the Purchase Price and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon exercise of this Warrant, in effect immediately prior to such adjustment or readjustment and as adjusted or readjusted as provided in this Warrant. The Company will forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the holder of the Warrant and any Warrant Agent of the Company (appointed pursuant to Section 11 hereof).
 
6.    Reservation of Stock, etc. Issuable on Exercise of Warrant; Financial Statements.    From and after the Issue Date of this Warrant, the Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the Warrants, all shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant. This Warrant entitles the holder hereof to receive copies of all financial and other information distributed or required to be distributed to the holders of the Company’s Common Stock.
 
7.    Assignment; Exchange of Warrant.    Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, this Warrant, and the rights evidenced hereby, may be transferred by any registered holder hereof (a “Transferor”) with respect to any or all of the Shares. On the surrender for exchange of this Warrant, with the Transferor’s endorsement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Transferor Endorsement Form”) and together with evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company demonstrating compliance with applicable securities laws, the Company at its expense, (but with payment by the Transferor of any applicable transfer taxes) will issue and deliver to or on the order of the Transferor thereof a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor, in the name of the Transferor and/or the transferee(s) specified in such Transferor Endorsement Form (each a “Transferee”), calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of shares of Common Stock called for on the face or faces of the Warrant so surrendered by the Transferor.
 
8.    Replacement of Warrant.    On receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction of this Warrant, on delivery of an indemnity agreement or security reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, on surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company at its expense will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.
 
9.    Registration Rights.    The Holder of this Warrant has been granted certain registration rights by the Company. These registration rights are set forth in a Subscription Agreement entered into by the Company and a Subscriber of the Company’s Common Stock at or prior to the issue date of this Warrant. The terms of the Subscription Agreement are incorporated herein by this reference. Upon the occurrence of a Non-Registration Event, as defined in the Subscription Agreement, in the event the Company is unable to issue Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant that has been registered in a Registration Statement described in Section 8.1 of the Subscription Agreement, within the time periods described in the Subscription Agreement, which Registration Statement must be effective for the periods set forth in the Subscription Agreement, then upon written demand made by the Holder, the Company will pay to the Holder of this Warrant, in lieu of delivering Common Stock, a sum equal to the weighted volume average trading price of the Company’s Common Stock on the Principal Market (as defined in the Subscription Agreement) or such other principal trading market for the Company’s Common Stock on the trading date on which notice is given by the Holder, less the Purchase Price, for each share of Common Stock designated in such notice from the Holder. This payment shall be in lieu of any other sums payable by the Company under the Subscription Agreement with respect to non-registration of the Common Stock underlying the Warrant.

5


 
10.    Maximum Exercise.    The Holder shall not be entitled to exercise this Warrant on an exercise date, in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates on an exercise date, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant with respect to which the determination of this limitation is being made on an exercise date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company on such date. For the 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-3 thereunder. Subject to the foregoing, the Holder shall not be limited to aggregate exercises which would result in the issuance of more than 9.99%. The restriction described in this paragraph may be revoked upon seventy-five (75) days prior notice from the Holder to the Company. The Holder may allocate which of the equity of the Company deemed beneficially owned by the Subscriber shall be included in the 9.99% amount described above and which shall be allocated to the excess above 9.99%.
 
11.    Warrant Agent.    The Company may, by written notice to the each holder of the Warrant, appoint an agent for the purpose of issuing Common Stock (or Other Securities) on the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 1, exchanging this Warrant pursuant to Section 7, and replacing this Warrant pursuant to Section 8, or any of the foregoing, and thereafter any such issuance, exchange or replacement, as the case may be, shall be made at such office by such agent.
 
12.    Transfer on the Company’s Books.    Until this Warrant is transferred on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
 
13.    Notices.    All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, shall be (i) personally served, (ii) deposited in the mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (iii) delivered by reputable air courier service with charges prepaid, or (iv) transmitted by hand delivery, telegram, or facsimile, addressed as set forth below or to such other address as such party shall have specified most recently by written notice.

To the Subscribers for Common Stock Shares
and Warrants Listed on Exhibit A Hereto:
 
Re:    Legal Opinion in Connection with Subscription Agreement
 
Ladies and Gentlemen:
 
We have acted as special counsel for P-Com, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the sale by the Company to you of shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and common stock purchase warrants to purchase Company’s shares of common stock, par value $.0001 (the “Warrants”) pursuant to a Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) dated as of December 23, 2002 among the Company and the persons listed on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Subscribers”), and the execution and delivery by the Company of the Warrants and a Funds Escrow Agreement (the “Funds Escrow Agreement”), each dated December 30, 2002. This opinion is given to you pursuant to Section 3 of the Subscription Agreement in connection solely with the first Closing of the sale of the Common Stock and the Warrants. The Subscription Agreement, the Warrants and the Funds Escrow Agreement are referred to herein collectively as the “Transaction Documents.” Unless defined herein, capitalized terms have the meanings given them in the Transaction Documents.
 
As to matters of fact, we are relying upon the representations and warranties of all parties contained in the Subscription Agreement and the Certificate of the Company attached hereto (“Opinion Certificate”) and upon certificates and statements of government officials, all without independent verification. In addition, we examined originals or copies of documents, corporate records and other writings that we consider relevant for the purposes of this opinion. In such examination, we assumed that the signatures on documents and instruments examined by us are authentic, that each is complete and what it purports to be, that all documents and instruments submitted to us as copies or facsimiles conform with the originals, and that the documents and instruments submitted to us have not been amended or modified since the date submitted.
 
In our examination of documents, we further assumed (i) that each person or entity entering into such documents (other than the Company in connection with the Transaction Documents) had the power, legal competence and capacity to enter into and perform all of such party’s obligations thereunder, (ii) the due authorization, execution and delivery by each party (other than the due authorization, execution and delivery of the


To the Subscribers listed on Exhibit A
December 23, 2002
Page 2

 
Transaction Documents by the Company), (iii) the enforceability and binding nature of the obligations of the parties to such documents (other than as to the enforceability against, and the binding nature upon, the Company of the Transaction Documents), (iv) that there is no fact or circumstance relating to any party that might prevent the Subscribers from enforcing any of the rights provided for in the Transaction Documents, (v) performance on or before the Closing by all parties of their obligations under the Transaction Documents to be performed on or before the Closing and (vi) no action has been taken or event occurred which amends, revokes, terminates or renders invalid any of the documents, records, consents or resolutions which we have reviewed since the date of the certificates we relied upon in rendering this opinion. We also assumed that there are no extrinsic agreements or understandings among the parties to the Transaction Documents that would modify or interpret the terms of the Transaction Documents or the respective rights or obligations of the parties thereunder.
 
As used in this opinion, the expression “to our knowledge” or “known to us” with reference to matters of fact refers to the current actual knowledge of Theodore R. Maloney, Gretchen Corbell and Cristina Rodriguez-Rios, the attorneys within the firm with primary responsibility for the transactions covered by this opinion. Except to the extent expressly set forth herein we have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the accuracy or completeness of such statement (including without limitation any examination of any documents in our files or otherwise made available to us by the Company), and no inference as to the accuracy or completeness of such statement should be drawn from our representation of the Company or our rendering the opinions set forth below.
 
Based upon and subject to the foregoing and the qualifications and limitations set forth below, and except as set forth in the Subscription Agreement or the Company’s Disclosure Schedule thereto, it is our opinion that:
 
1.    The Company is duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing in the State of Delaware; has qualified to do business in each state where it owns or leases any material property or conducts any material business, except where failure to do so would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations; and has the requisite corporate power and authority to conduct its business as, to our knowledge, it is presently conducted, and to own, lease and operate its properties.
 
2.    The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents. The Transaction Documents, and the issuance of the Common Stock and Warrants and the reservation and issuance of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (“Warrant Shares”) have been (a) duly approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, and (b) all such Common Stock, Warrants and Warrant Shares, when issued pursuant to the Subscription Agreement and the Warrants and upon delivery, shall be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and non assessable.


To the Subscribers listed on Exhibit A

3.    The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, will not, with or without the giving of notice or the passage of time or both:
 
(a)    Violate the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws of the Company; or
 
(b)    To our knowledge, violate any judgment, decree, order or award of any court binding upon the Company and specifically identified on Exhibit B attached hereto.
 
4.    The Transaction Documents constitute the valid and legally binding obligations of the Company and are enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms.
 
5.    The Common Stock, Warrants and Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) or under the laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and are and will be issued pursuant to a valid exemption from registration.
 
In rendering the opinion set forth in paragraph 1 above as to the good standing of the Company, we relied exclusively on certificates of public officials.
 
In rendering the opinion set forth in paragraph 2 above relating to the fully paid status of the Common Stock and Warrant Shares of the Company, we relied without independent verification on the Opinion Certificate.
 
With regard to the opinion set forth in paragraph 4 above regarding enforceability, we note that whenever an opinion herein states that an agreement is a “valid and legally binding obligation” of a party “enforceable in accordance with its terms,” such statement shall mean that, subject to the qualifications and limitations set forth herein, (i) an effective contract has been formed under California law, (ii) the entire agreement is not invalid by reason of a specific statutory prohibition or the public policy of the State of California, (iii) contractual defenses to the entire agreement are not available and (iv) some remedy is available if a party to the agreement does not materially comply with its terms. This does not imply that any particular type of remedy is available.


To the Subscribers listed on Exhibit A
December 23, 2002

Our opinion set forth in paragraph 4 is further qualified by, and subject to, and we render no opinion with respect to, the following:
 
1.    The effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting the relief of debtors or the rights and remedies of creditors generally, including without limitation the effect of statutory or other law regarding fraudulent transfers, preferential transfers and distributions and equitable subordination;
 
2.    Limitations imposed by general principles of equity upon the availability of equitable remedies for the enforcement of provisions of the Transaction Documents, whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity, and by the effect of judicial decisions holding that certain provisions are unenforceable when their enforcement would violate the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, or would be commercially unreasonable, or where their breach is not material;
 
3.    The effect of Section 1670.5 of the California Civil Code or any other California law, United States federal or Delaware law or equitable principle which provides that a court may refuse to enforce, or may limit the application of, a contract or any clause thereof which the court finds to have been unconscionable at the time it was made or contrary to public policy;
 
4.    The enforceability of provisions of the Transaction Documents expressly, or by implication, waiving or relinquishing broadly or vaguely stated rights or unknown future rights or defenses, or waiving defenses to obligations or rights granted by law (whether substantive or procedural) or waiving rights to damages, or the benefits of statutory, regulatory or constitutional rights, unless and to the extent the statute, regulation or constitution explicitly permits the waiver of such rights;

7.    The enforceability of any provisions of the Transaction Documents providing that (a) rights or remedies are or are not exclusive, (b) rights or remedies may be exercised without notice, (c) every right or remedy is cumulative and may be exercised in addition to or with any other right or remedy, (d) the election of a particular remedy or remedies does not preclude recourse to one or more other remedies, (e) liquidated damages are to be paid upon the breach of any Transaction Document or (f) the failure to exercise, or any delay in exercising, rights or remedies available under the Transaction Documents will not operate as a waiver of any such right or remedy;
 
8.    The enforceability of any attorneys’ fees, severability, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution provisions;
 
9.    Any provision of the Transaction Documents requiring written amendments or waivers insofar as it suggests that oral or other modifications, amendments or waivers could not be effectively agreed upon by the parties or that the doctrine of promissory estoppel might not apply. We note that a requirement that provisions of the Transaction Documents may only be amended or waived in writing may not be binding or enforceable if an oral agreement has been created modifying such provision or an implied agreement by trade practice or course of conduct has given rise to an amendment or waiver; and
 
10.    The validity, binding effect or enforceability of the Transaction Documents to the extent that an arbitrator’s decision may be contrary to the law or the facts and not subject to reversal.
 
In rendering the opinion set forth in paragraph 5 regarding securities exemptions, we have assumed the accuracy of, and have relied upon, the Company’s representations to us that the Company has made no offer to sell the Common Stock, Warrants or Warrant Shares by means of any general solicitation or publication of any advertisement therefor.
 
In addition to the foregoing, the opinions expressed above are subject to the following limitations, exceptions, qualifications and assumptions:
 
1.    We express no opinion as to compliance with any federal or state antitrust statutes, rules or regulations, including without limitation the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976.
 
2.    We assumed (a) the accuracy and completeness of the representations and warranties of the Subscribers set forth in the Transaction Documents and (b) the validity of any wire transfers, drafts or checks tendered by the Subscribers.

3.    We express no opinion as to compliance with applicable antifraud statutes, rules or regulations of applicable state and federal laws concerning the issuance or sale of securities, including without limitation the accuracy and completeness of the information provided by the Company to the Subscribers in connection with the offer and sale of the Common Stock, Warrants and Warrant Shares.
 
4.    We express no opinion as to whether the members of the Company’s Board of Directors have complied with their fiduciary duties in connection with the authorization and performance of the Transaction Documents.
 
5.    We assumed that the actions of the Company and its officers, directors and stockholders comply with the provisions of Section 144 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
 
6.    We express no opinion as to matters governed by any laws other than the laws of the State of California, the corporate law of the State of Delaware or the federal law of the United States of America. We express no opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction nor as to the statutes, administrative decisions, rules, regulations or requirements of any county, municipality, subdivision or local authority of any jurisdiction. We express no opinion as to whether the laws of any jurisdiction are applicable to the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.
 
7.    We express no opinion as to matters governed by federal and state laws and regulations governing: usury; securities (except with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents); broker-dealers, investment companies, and investment advisers; insurance; labor, employment (including, but not limited to, the Americans with Disabilities Act) and pension and employee benefits; antitrust and unfair competition; escheat; health and safety, environmental protection and hazardous substances; taxation; or patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade names and other intellectual property rights.
 
8.    We note that the parties to the Transaction Documents have designated the laws of the State of New York as the laws governing the Transaction Documents. Our opinion is premised upon the result that would be obtained if a California court were to apply the internal laws of the State of California to the interpretation and enforcement of the Transaction Documents (notwithstanding the designation therein of the laws of the State of New York).
 
This opinion is qualified to the extent, and is rendered and delivered on the express condition and assumption, that no counsel for the addressee has expressed or reached opinions which are contrary to the opinions set forth in this letter.
