Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else contained herein to the contrary, the Securities may be pledged as collateral in connection with a bona fide margin account or other lending 3 arrangement, provided such pledge is consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations. (g) Legends. Such Purchaser understands that the Preferred Stock and Warrants and, until such time as the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares have been registered under the Securities Act (including registration pursuant to Rule 416 thereunder) as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise may be sold by such Purchaser under Rule 144, the certificates for the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form: The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws of any state of the United States or in any other jurisdiction. The securities represented hereby may not be offered, sold or transferred in the absence of an effective registration statement for the securities under applicable securities laws unless offered, sold or transferred pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of those laws. The Company shall, within three business days after any registration statement covering the Securities (including, without limitation, the Registration Statement contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement) is declared effective, deliver to its transfer agent an opinion letter of counsel, opining that at any time such registration statement is effective, the transfer agent shall issue, in connection with the issuance of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares, certificates representing such Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares without the restrictive legend above, provided such Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares are to be sold pursuant to the prospectus contained in such registration statement. Upon receipt of such opinion, the Company shall cause the transfer agent to confirm, for the benefit of the holders, that no further opinion of counsel is required at the time of transfer in order to issue such shares without such restrictive legend. The legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of any Security upon which it is stamped, if, unless otherwise required by state securities laws, (i) the sale of such Security is registered under the Securities Act (including registration pursuant to Rule 416 thereunder); (ii) such holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Security may be made without registration under the Securities Act; or (iii) such holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such Security can be sold under Rule 144. In the event the above legend is removed from any Security and thereafter the effectiveness of a registration statement covering such Security is suspended or the Company determines that a supplement or amendment thereto is required by applicable securities laws, then upon reasonable advance written notice to such Purchaser the Company may require that the above legend be placed on any such Security that cannot then be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or under Rule 144 and such Purchaser shall cooperate in the replacement of such legend. Such legend shall thereafter be removed when such Security may again be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or under Rule 144. 4 (h) Authorization; Enforcement. This Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement have been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of such Purchaser and are valid and binding agreements of such Purchaser enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with their terms.

Each Purchaser's representations and warranties made in this Article 2 are made solely for the purpose of permitting the Company to make a determination that the offer and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement comply with applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and not for any other purpose.

(r) Listing. The Company is not in violation of the listing requirements of the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board (the "BULLETIN BOARD") on which it trades, does not reasonably anticipate that the Common Stock will be delisted by the Bulletin Board for the foreseeable future, and has not received any notice regarding the possible delisting of the Common Stock from the 11 Bulletin Board. The Company has secured the listing of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares upon each national securities exchange, automated quotation system or over-the-counter market upon which shares of Common Stock are currently listed (subject to official notice of issuance). (s) [Intentionally Omitted.] (t) Anti-Takeover Provisions. The Company and its board of directors have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under its Certificate of Incorporation or the laws of the state of its incorporation which is or could become applicable to any Purchaser as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including without limitation, the Company's issuance of the Securities and any and all Purchaser's ownership of the Securities. Except as specifically contemplated by this Agreement, the Company is not required to obtain any consent, approval, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency or any regulatory or self-regulatory agency or other third party in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, in each case in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof. (u) Acknowledgment Regarding Each Purchaser's Purchase of the Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that each Purchaser is acting solely in the capacity of arm's length purchaser with respect to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and that no Purchaser is (i) an officer or director of the Company, (ii) an "affiliate" of the Company (as defined in Rule 144) or (iii) a "beneficial owner" of more than 5% of the Common Stock (as defined for purposes of Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act). The Company further acknowledges that no Purchaser is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar capacity) with respect to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and any advice given by a Purchaser or any of its representatives or agents in connection with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby is merely incidental to such Purchaser's purchase of the Securities. The Company further represents to each Purchaser that the Company's decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents has been based solely on the independent evaluation by the Company and its representatives. (v) No General Solicitation or Integrated Offering. Neither the Company nor any distributor participating on the Company's behalf in the transactions contemplated hereby (if any) nor any person acting for the Company, or any such distributor, has conducted any "general solicitation" (as such term is defined in Regulation D) with respect to any of the Securities being offered hereby. Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has directly or indirectly made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would require registration of the Securities being offered hereby under the Securities Act or cause this offering of Securities to be integrated with any prior offering of securities of the Company for purposes of the Securities Act, which result of such integration would require registration under the Securities Act, or any applicable stockholder approval provisions. 12 (w) No Brokers. The Company has taken no action that would give rise to any claim by any person for brokerage commissions, finder's fees or similar payments by any Purchaser relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. (x) Acknowledgment Regarding Securities. The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants may increase in certain circumstances. The Company's directors and executive officers have studied and fully understand the nature of the Securities being sold hereunder. The Company acknowledges that its obligation to issue Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms thereof and the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the Warrants in accordance with the terms thereof is absolute and unconditional, regardless of the dilution that such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other stockholders and the availability of remedies provided for in any of the Transaction Documents relating to a failure or refusal to issue Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares. Taking the foregoing into account, the Company's Board of Directors has determined in its good faith business judgment that the issuance of the Units hereunder and the consummation of the other transactions contemplated hereby are in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. (y) Disclosure. All information relating to or concerning the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries set forth in this Agreement or provided to the Purchasers pursuant to Section 2(d) hereof or otherwise by the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby is true and correct in all material respects and the Company has not omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. No event or circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries or their respective businesses, properties, prospects, operations or financial conditions, which has not been publicly disclosed but, under applicable law, rule or regulation, would be required to be disclosed by the Company in a registration statement filed on the date hereof by the Company under the Securities Act with respect to a primary issuance of the Company's securities. 4. COVENANTS. (a) Best Efforts. The parties shall use their respective best efforts timely to satisfy each of the conditions described in Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement. (b) Form D: Blue Sky Laws. The Company shall file with the SEC a Form D with respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D and provide a copy thereof to each Purchaser promptly after such filing. The Company shall, on or before the Closing Date, take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary to qualify the Securities for sale to each Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities or "blue sky" laws of the states of the United States or obtain exemption therefrom, and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to each Purchaser on or prior to the Closing Date. The Company shall issue a press release describing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby (the "PRESS RELEASE") as soon as practicable after the Closing, but in no event later than the commencement of the first trading day following the Closing Date. The Press Release shall be subject to prior review and comment by the Purchasers. Within two days after the Closing Date, the Company shall file a Form 8-K with the SEC concerning this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, which Form 8-K shall attach 13 this Agreement and its Exhibits as exhibits to such Form 8-K (the "8-K FILING"). From and after the 8-K Filing, the Company hereby acknowledges that no Purchaser shall be in possession of any material nonpublic information received from the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its respective officers, directors, employees or agents, that is not disclosed in the 8-K Filing. The Company shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and its and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents not to, provide any Purchaser with any material nonpublic information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from and after the 8-K Filing without the express written consent of such Purchaser; provided, however, that a Purchaser that exercises its rights under Section 4(o) hereof shall be deemed to have given such express written consent. In the event of a breach of the foregoing covenant by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, in addition to any other remedy provided herein or in the other Transaction Documents, a Purchaser shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of such material nonpublic information without the prior approval by the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees or agents. No Purchaser shall have any liability to the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, shareholders or agents for any such disclosure. Subject to the foregoing, neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue any other press releases or any other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that the Company shall be entitled, without the prior approval of any Purchaser, to make any press release or other public disclosure with respect to such transactions as is required by applicable law and regulations (provided that any such press release or other public disclosure shall be subject to prior review and comment by the Purchasers). (c) Reporting Status. So long as any Purchasers (or any of their respective affiliates) beneficially own any of the Securities, the Company shall timely file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act, and the Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the Exchange Act even if the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would permit such termination. In addition, the Company shall take all actions necessary to meet the "registrant eligibility" requirements set forth in the general instructions to Form S-1 or any successor form thereto, to continue to be eligible to register the resale of its Common Stock on a registration statement on Form S-1 under the Securities Act. (d) Use of Proceeds. The Company shall use the proceeds from the sale and issuance of the Units for general corporate purposes and working capital. Such remaining proceeds shall not be used to (i) pay dividends; (ii) pay for any increase in executive compensation or make any loan or other advance to any officer, employee, shareholder, director or other affiliate of the Company, without the express approval of the Board of Directors acting in accordance with past practice; (iii) purchase debt or equity securities of any entity (including redeeming the Company's own securities), except for (A) loans in an aggregate amount not exceeding $1,000,000 to SPEEDCOM Wireless Corporation, (B) evidences of indebtedness issued or fully guaranteed by the United States of America and having a maturity of not more than one year from the date of acquisition, (C) 14 certificates of deposit, notes, acceptances and repurchase agreements having a maturity of not more than one year from the date of acquisition issued by a bank organized in the United States having capital, surplus and undivided profits of at least $500,000,000, (D) the highest-rated commercial paper having a maturity of not more than one year from the date of acquisition, and (E) "Money Market" fund shares, or money market accounts fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and sponsored by banks and other financial institutions, provided that the investments consist principally of the types of investments described in clauses (B), (C), or (D) above; or (iv) make any investment not directly related to the current business of the Company. (e) Participation Right; Exchange Right. Subject to the terms and conditions specified in this Section 4(e), the Purchasers shall have a right to participate with respect to the issuance or possible issuance of (i) equity or equity-linked securities, or (ii) debt which is convertible into equity or in which there is an equity component ("ADDITIONAL SECURITIES") on the same terms and conditions as offered by the Company to the other purchasers of such Additional Securities. Each time the Company proposes to offer any Additional Securities, the Company shall make an offering of such Additional Securities to each Purchaser in accordance with the following provisions: (i) the Company shall deliver a notice (the "NOTICE") to the Purchasers stating (A) its bona fide intention to offer such Additional Securities, (B) the number of such Additional Securities to be offered, (C) the price and terms, if any, upon which it proposes to offer such Additional Securities, and (D) the anticipated closing date of the sale of such Additional Securities; (ii) until the first anniversary of the Closing Date, by written notification received by the Company within five (5) trading days after giving of the Notice, any Purchaser may elect to purchase or obtain, at the price and on the terms specified in the Notice, up to that portion of such Additional Securities that have a total purchase price equal to one half of the Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser for Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms hereof. The Company shall promptly, in writing, inform each Purchaser that elects to purchase all of the Additional Shares available to it ("FULLY-EXERCISING PURCHASER") of any other Purchaser's failure to do likewise. During the five (5) trading day period commencing after such information is given, each Fully-Exercising Purchaser shall be entitled to obtain that portion of the Additional Securities for which the Purchasers were entitled to subscribe but that were not subscribed for by the Purchasers that is equal to the proportion that the Purchase Price paid for Preferred Stock by such Fully-Exercising Purchaser in accordance with the terms hereof bears to the total Purchase Price paid for Preferred Stock by all Purchasers in accordance with the terms hereof; (iii) notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 4(e)(ii) hereof, at any time after the Closing Date, by written notification received by the Company within five (5) trading days after giving of the Notice, any Purchaser may elect to purchase or obtain, at the price and on the terms specified in the Notice, up to that portion of such Additional Securities that have a total purchase price equal to the Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser for Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, however, that any Purchaser who elects to purchase Additional Securities pursuant to this Section 4(e)(iii) shall be required to surrender to the Company Preferred Stock (or Conversion Shares issued on the conversion of such Preferred Stock) for which the Purchase Price paid by such Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof 15 (plus any accrued but unpaid dividends on such Preferred Stock) equals the total purchase price of the Additional Securities to be acquired by such Purchaser, and the Company shall accept such Preferred Stock (or Conversion Shares) as payment in full for such Additional Securities. The provisions of this subsection 4(e)(iii) shall be of no further force or effect upon the consummation of any transaction (other than those transactions contemplated by this Agreement) resulting in the issuance of the Company's Common Stock in connection with a bona fide offering at an offering price per share (prior to any underwriter's commissions and discounts) of not less than $0.12 (as adjusted to reflect any stock dividends, distributions, combinations, reclassifications and other similar transactions effected by the Company in respect to its Common Stock) that results in total net proceeds to the Company of at least $5,000,000; (iv) if all Additional Securities which the Purchasers are entitled to obtain pursuant to subsection 4(e)(ii) or 4(e)(iii) are not elected to be obtained as provided in subsection 4(e)(ii) or 4(e)(iii) hereof, the Company may, during the 75-day period following the expiration of the period provided in subsection 4(e)(ii) or 4(e)(iii) hereof, offer the remaining unsubscribed portion of such Additional Securities to any person or persons at a price not less than, and upon terms no more favorable to the offeree than, those specified in the Notice. If the Company does not consummate the sale of such Additional Securities within such period, the right provided hereunder shall be deemed to be revived and such Additional Securities shall not be offered or sold unless first reoffered to the Purchasers in accordance herewith; (v) the participation right in this Section 4(e) shall not be applicable to (A) the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock (or options therefor) to employees, officers, directors, or consultants of the Company for the primary purpose of soliciting or retaining their employment or service pursuant to a stock option plan (or similar equity incentive plan) approved in good faith by the Board of Directors, (B) the issuance of Common Stock in connection with a bona fide underwritten public offering at an offering price per share (prior to underwriter's commissions and discounts) of not less than $0.20 (as adjusted to reflect any stock dividends, distributions, combinations, reclassifications and other similar transactions effected by the Company in respect to its Common Stock) that results in total proceeds to the Company of at least $25,000,000, (C) the issuance or sale of the Preferred Stock, (D) the issuance of securities in connection with mergers, acquisitions, strategic business partnerships or joint ventures approved by the Board of Directors and the primary purpose of which, in the reasonable judgment of the Board of Directors, is not to raise additional capital or (E) any issuance of securities as to which the holders of a majority of the then outstanding Preferred Stock shall have executed a written waiver of the rights contained in this Section 4(e); and (vi) the participation right set forth in this Section 4(e) may not be assigned or transferred, except that such right is assignable by each Purchaser to any wholly-owned subsidiary or parent of, or to any corporation or entity that is, within the meaning of the Securities Act, controlling, controlled by or under common control with, any such Purchaser. (f) Financial Information. The Company shall send (via electronic transmission or otherwise) the following reports (or notification of their availability to the public) to the Purchasers until the Purchasers transfer, assign or sell all of their Securities: (i) within ten days after the filing with the SEC, a copy of its Annual Report on Form 10-K, its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, its proxy statements and any Current Reports on Form 8-K; and (ii) within one day after release, copies of all press releases issued by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. 16 (g) Reservation of Shares. The Company shall, at and after such time as the Company's stockholders have approved an amendment to its Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 69,000,000 to at least 600,000,000 shares (the "AMENDMENT"), but in no event later than ninety (90) days following the Closing; provided, however, that in the event the SEC conducts a full review of the preliminary proxy statement filed in connection with the Company soliciting proxies to approve the Amendment, such period may be extended, if reasonably necessary, by an additional thirty (30) days (the "AMENDMENT DATE"), reserve such number of shares of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to provide for full conversion of the Preferred Stock and the issuance of the Conversion Shares in connection therewith, the full exercise of the Warrants and the issuance of the Warrant Shares in connection therewith and as otherwise required by the Preferred Stock, the Warrants and the Registration Rights Agreement (collectively, the "ISSUANCE OBLIGATIONS") that is equal to (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable in satisfaction of the Issuance Obligations immediately following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as adjusted to provide for Issuance Obligations relating to any subsequent issuances of Additional Units after the Closing Date but prior to the filing of the Registration Statement pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, multiplied by (ii) 125%. In the event such number of shares becomes insufficient to satisfy the Issuance Obligations, the Company shall take all necessary action to authorize and reserve such additional shares of Common Stock necessary to satisfy the Issuance Obligations; provided, however, that in the event the Company's stockholders shall not have approved the Amendment by the Amendment Date, then the Company shall pay to each Purchaser an amount equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Preferred Stock then held by such Purchaser multiplied by the per share purchase price, multiplied by (ii) two percent (2.0%) for each 30 day period (or portion thereof) after the Amendment Date and prior to the approval of the Amendment by the Company's stockholders. Each Purchaser hereby agrees that it shall not request any Optional Conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to Article IV of the Certificate of Designation prior to the approval of the Amendment by the Company's stockholders, and any failure of the Company to satisfy an Optional Conversion request prior to the approval of the Amendment by the Company's stockholders shall not be deemed a Conversion Default under Article VI of the Certificate of Designation. (h) Price Adjustment Approval. The Company shall seek the approval of its stockholders of the anti-dilution and other conversion/exercise price adjustments contained in the Series C Preferred Stock and the Warrants, as required by Article VII, Section 8 of the Company's Bylaws (such approval, the "PRICE ADJUSTMENT APPROVAL"). In the event the Company's stockholders shall not have given the Price Adjustment Approval within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date; provided, however, that in the event the SEC conducts a full review of the preliminary proxy statement filed in connection with the Company soliciting proxies to approve the Price Adjustment Approval, the such period may be extended, if reasonably necessary, by an additional thirty (30) days (the "ADJUSTMENT APPROVAL DATE"), then the Company shall pay to each Purchaser an amount equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Preferred Stock then held by such Purchaser multiplied by the per share purchase price, multiplied by (ii) two percent (2.0%) for each 30 day period (or portion thereof) after the Adjustment Approval Date and prior to the Company's stockholders granting the Price Adjustment Approval. For the avoidance of doubt, any amounts payable under this Section 4(h) shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any amounts payable under any other Section of this Agreement. 17 (i) Listing. The Company shall maintain, so long as any Purchasers (or any of their respective affiliates) beneficially own any Securities, the listing of all Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares from time to time issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and exercise of the Warrants on each national securities exchange, automated quotation system or electronic bulletin board on which shares of Common Stock are currently listed. The Company will use its best efforts to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on the Bulletin Board or the Nasdaq National Market (the "NATIONAL MARKET"), the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") or the American Stock Exchange (the "AMEX") and will comply in all respects with the reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD"), such exchanges, or such electronic system, as applicable. The Company shall promptly provide to each Purchaser copies of any notices it receives regarding the continued eligibility of the Common Stock for trading on the Bulletin Board or on any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then listed or quoted, if any. (j) Corporate Existence. So long as any Purchasers (or any of their respective affiliates) beneficially own any Securities, the Company shall maintain its corporate existence, and in the event of a merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, the Company shall ensure that the surviving or successor entity in such transaction and, if an entity different from the successor or acquiring entity, the entity whose securities into which the Common Stock shall become convertible or exchangeable in such transaction (i) assumes the Company's obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the agreements and instruments entered into in connection herewith and therewith regardless of whether or not the Company would have had a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and available for issuance in order to effect the conversion of all the Preferred Stock and exercise in full of all Warrants outstanding as of the date of such transaction and (ii) except in the event of a merger, consolidation of the Company into any other corporation, or the sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company where the consideration consists solely of cash, the surviving or successor entity and, if an entity different from the successor or acquiring entity, the entity whose securities into which the Common Stock shall become convertible or exchangeable in such transaction, is a publicly traded corporation whose common stock is listed for trading on the National Market, the NYSE or the AMEX. (k) No Integrated Offerings. The Company shall not make any offers or sales of any security (other than the Securities) under circumstances that would require registration of the Securities being offered or sold hereunder under the Securities Act or cause this offering of the Securities to be integrated with any other offering of securities by the Company for purposes of any stockholder approval provision applicable to the Company or its securities. (l) Legal Compliance. The Company shall conduct its business and the business of its Subsidiaries in compliance with all laws, ordinances or regulations of governmental entities applicable to such businesses, except where the failure to do so would not have a Material Adverse Effect. 18 (m) Redemptions and Dividends. So long as any Purchasers (or any of their respective affiliates) beneficially own any Securities, the Company shall not, without first obtaining the written approval of the Purchasers holding a majority of the shares of Preferred Stock then outstanding, repurchase or redeem, declare or pay any cash dividend or distribution on, or otherwise repay or prepay on account of, any shares of capital stock or other outstanding indebtedness of the Company, other than the Preferred Stock (collectively, "RESTRICTED PAYMENTS"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the Company has not defaulted on its obligations to any Purchaser under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, and no default would result from the payment of such Restricted Payments, the Company may make Restricted Payments without the written approval of the Purchasers holding a majority of the shares of Preferred Stock then outstanding; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of Restricted Payments made without such approval shall not exceed, in the aggregate, $2,500,000 (n) Information. So long as a Purchaser whose total Purchase Price paid for Units under this Agreement equals or exceeds $100,000 beneficially owns any Securities, the Company shall furnish to such Purchaser: (i) concurrently with the filing with the SEC of its annual reports on Form 10-K, a certificate of the President, a Vice President or a senior financial officer of the Company stating that, based upon such examination or investigation and review of this Agreement as in the opinion of the signer is necessary to enable the signer to express an informed opinion with respect thereto, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is or has during such period been in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions hereof, or, if the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be or shall have been in default, specifying all such defaults, and the nature and period of existence thereof, and what action the Company or such Subsidiary has taken, is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto; and (ii) the information the Company must deliver to any holder or to any prospective transferee of Securities in order to permit the sale or other transfer of such Securities pursuant to Rule 144A of the SEC or any similar rule then in effect. The Company shall keep at its principal executive office a true copy of this Agreement (as at the time in effect), and cause the same to be available for inspection at such office during normal business hours by any holder of Securities or any prospective transferee of Securities designated by a holder thereof. (o) Inspection of Properties and Books. So long as any Purchaser beneficially owns any Securities, such Purchaser and its representatives and agents (collectively, the "INSPECTORS") shall have the right, at such Purchaser's expense, to visit and inspect any of the properties of the Company and of its Subsidiaries, to examine the books of account and records of the Company and of its Subsidiaries, to make or be provided with copies and extracts therefrom, to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Company and of its Subsidiaries with, and to be advised as to the same by, its and their officers, employees and independent public accountants (and by this provision the Company authorizes such accountants to discuss such affairs, finances and accounts, whether or not a representative of the Company is present) all at such reasonable times and intervals and to such reasonable extent as the Purchasers may desire; provided, however, that each Inspector shall hold in confidence and shall not make any disclosure (except to such Purchaser) of any such information 19 which the Company determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which determination the Inspectors are so notified, unless (i) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, (ii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court or government body of competent jurisdiction, or (iii) such information has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this or any other agreement. Each Purchaser agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the information deemed confidential. (p) Pledge of Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Securities may be pledged by any Purchaser in connection with a bona fide margin agreement or other loan or financing arrangement that is secured by the Securities. The pledge of Securities shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Securities hereunder, and no Purchaser effecting a pledge of Securities shall be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. The Company shall execute and deliver such documentation as a pledgee of the Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge of the Securities to such pledgee by a Purchaser. (q) Variable Securities. The Company shall not, in any manner, issue or sell any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock, or any other securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock, at an effective conversion, exchange or exercise price that varies or may vary with the market price of the Common Stock, including by way of one or more reset(s) to any fixed price. (r) Expenses. At the Closing, the Company shall pay to SDS Capital Partners ("SDS CAPITAL"), as representative of the lead investors in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, reimbursement for the out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by SDS Capital, its affiliates and its or their advisors in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, SDS Capital's and its affiliates' and advisors' reasonable due diligence and attorneys' fees and expenses (the "EXPENSES"), up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $90,000; provided, however, that the Purchasers affiliated with SDS Capital shall be permitted, in their discretion, to deduct an aggregate amount equal to such Expenses from the Purchase Price payable by such Purchasers hereunder and use such amounts so deducted to reimburse SDS Capital for such Expenses. In addition, from time to time thereafter, upon SDS Capital's written request and to the extent that the Company has not already reimbursed SDS Capital for Expenses aggregating $90,000 pursuant to this Section 4(r), the Company shall pay to SDS Capital such additional Expenses, if any, not covered by such payment, in each case to the extent reasonably incurred by SDS Capital, its affiliates or its or their advisors in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. 20 5.

Nothing in this Section shall affect in any way the Purchasers' obligations and agreement set forth in Section 2(g) hereof to resell the Securities pursuant to an effective registration statement or under an exemption from the registration requirements of applicable securities law. (c) If any Purchaser provides the Company and the transfer agent with an opinion of counsel, which opinion of counsel shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that the Securities to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from registration, or any Purchaser provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such Securities may be sold under Rule 144, the Company shall permit the transfer and, in the case of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares, promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates in such name and in such denominations as specified by the Purchasers. 6. CONDITIONS TO THE COMPANY'S OBLIGATION TO SELL. The obligation of the Company hereunder to issue and sell the Units to each Purchaser hereunder is subject to the satisfaction, at or before the Closing Date, of each of the following conditions as to such Purchaser, provided that these conditions are for the Company's sole benefit and may be waived by the Company at any time in its sole discretion: 21 (a) Each Purchaser shall have executed such Purchaser's Execution Page to this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which such Purchaser is a party and delivered the same to the Company.

ESCROW PROVISIONS. (a) Appointment of Escrow Agent. The Company and each Purchaser hereby jointly appoint Escrow Agent as escrow agent to hold the Purchase Price deposited into escrow with it pursuant to this Agreement (the "ESCROW DEPOSIT"), and Escrow Agent hereby agrees to hold the Escrow Deposit in escrow in accordance with the terms hereof and to perform its other duties hereunder. The Company and each Purchaser acknowledge that Escrow Agent is legal counsel to SDS Capital and intends to continue to serve in that capacity in connection with any matter related to this Agreement, to the arrangements and dealings between the Company, SDS Capital and each other Purchaser and otherwise. The Company and each Purchaser hereby consents to such continued representation, including in matters adverse to them, and waive any claims they may have that such representation will result in a conflict of interest or otherwise. Nothing contained herein shall in any way require termination of or otherwise affect Escrow Agent's relationship with SDS Capital or adversely affect, in any manner, the attorney-client privilege between Escrow Agent and SDS Capital with respect to Escrow Agent's representation of SDS Capital. 23 (b) Deposit of Escrow Deposit. On or before the date hereof, each Purchaser shall transmit the Escrow Deposit to Escrow Agent by federal wire transfer of immediately available U.S. funds. Subject to Section 8(d) hereof, and until all of the Escrow Deposit shall have been disbursed as provided in this Agreement, Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Deposit in an interest bearing account entitled "Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP as escrow agent." All income earned on and other proceeds of the Escrow Deposit shall be added to the amount thereof and distributed in accordance with the terms hereof. Upon distribution to the Company, such income shall be treated as income of the Company for income tax purposes. Whenever required by this Agreement to disburse any of the Escrow Deposit, Escrow Agent shall liquidate sufficient investments to permit such disbursement to be made. (c) Disposition of Escrow Deposit. As soon as reasonably practicable following receipt of written instructions from the Company and Burnham Hill Partners LLC, placement agent for the Securities, along with duly executed and delivered copies of each Purchaser's Execution Page to this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which such Purchaser is a party, Escrow Agent shall (a) deliver the Escrow Deposit to the Company by federal wire transfer of immediately available U.S. funds in accordance with wire instructions provided by the Company and (b) subject to payment of Escrow Agent's expenses and fees pursuant to Section 8(f) hereof, deliver all interest accrued on the Escrow Deposit to the Company by federal wire transfer of immediately available U.S. funds in accordance with wire instructions provided by the Company, and, upon such deliveries, Escrow Agent shall be fully discharged from any and all obligations hereunder. If written instructions regarding the disposition of the Escrow Deposit and duly executed and delivered copies of each Purchaser's Execution Page to this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which such Purchaser is a party are not received by Escrow Agent within five (5) business days of the date hereof, the Escrow Agent shall return the applicable portion of the Escrow Deposit to each Purchaser, along with such Purchaser's pro rata share of any accrued interest thereon and, upon such delivery, Escrow Agent shall be fully discharged from any and all obligations hereunder. (d) Resignation or Removal of Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent may resign at any time upon 10 days' prior notice to the Company and may be removed by the mutual consent of the Company and each Purchaser upon 10 days' prior notice to Escrow Agent. Prior to the effective date of the resignation or removal of Escrow Agent or any successor escrow agent, the Company and the Purchasers shall jointly appoint a successor escrow agent to hold the Escrow Deposit and any such successor escrow agent shall execute and deliver to the predecessor escrow agent an instrument accepting such appointment and the terms of this Agreement. Thereafter, upon receipt of the Escrow Deposit from the predecessor agent, such successor agent shall, without further act, become vested with all of the rights, powers and duties of the predecessor escrow agent as if originally named herein, and such predecessor escrow agent shall be released from all obligations and liability hereunder. If no successor escrow agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the termination or resignation of the Escrow Agent, Escrow Agent may: (i) file an interpleader action in any court of competent jurisdiction and deposit the Escrow Deposit with the clerk of such court, or (ii) deliver the Escrow Deposit to a bank with capital in excess of $100 million which executes and delivers to the predecessor escrow agent an instrument 24 accepting such appointment and the terms of this Agreement. Thereafter, upon receipt of the Escrow Deposit from the predecessor agent, such successor agent shall, without further act, become vested with all of the rights, powers and duties of the predecessor escrow agent as if originally named herein, and such predecessor escrow agent shall be released from all obligations and liability hereunder. (e) Liability of Escrow Agent. (i) The duties of Escrow Agent hereunder are entirely administrative and not discretionary. Escrow Agent is obligated to act only in accordance with this Agreement, is authorized hereby to comply with any orders, judgments or decrees of any court or arbitration panel (whether or not any appeal thereof is pending) and shall not incur any liability as a result of its compliance with such instructions, orders, judgments or decrees. Escrow Agent may assume the due execution, validity and effectiveness of, and the truth and accuracy of any information contained in, any instrument or other document presented to it and shall not have any obligation to inquire into the authenticity or authorization thereof. (ii) Escrow Agent shall have no liability under, or duty to inquire into, the terms and provisions of any other agreement between any of the parties hereto. If any of the terms and provisions of any other agreement conflict or are inconsistent with any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the terms and provisions of this Agreement in respect of Escrow Agent's rights and duties shall govern and control in all respects. (iii) If Escrow Agent shall be uncertain as to its rights or duties hereunder, it shall be entitled to refrain from taking any action other than to keep all property held in escrow pursuant hereto until it shall be directed otherwise in a writing signed by the Company and each Purchaser or by an order of a court of competent jurisdiction. Alternatively, in such situation, Escrow Agent may in its sole discretion, deliver and interplead the Escrow Deposit, together with any interest thereon, into a court of competent jurisdiction, and, upon such delivery and interpleading, Escrow Agent shall be fully discharged from any and all obligations and liability hereunder. Escrow Agent may consult with counsel of its choice, and shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, or omitted by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel. Escrow Agent shall not be required to institute legal proceedings of any kind and shall not be required to defend any legal proceedings which may be instituted against it in respect of the subject matter of this Agreement unless requested to do so by another party hereto and indemnified to its satisfaction against the costs and expenses of such defense. (iv) The Company and each Purchaser hereby irrevocably waive and covenant not to bring any suit, claim, demand or cause of action of any kind which any or all may have to assert against Escrow Agent (or any partner or employee of Escrow Agent) arising out of or relating to the execution or performance by Escrow Agent of this Agreement now or in the future, unless such suit, claim, demand or cause of action is based upon the willful misconduct of Escrow Agent or Escrow Agent's gross negligence in its failure to perform an express obligation hereunder. Escrow Agent shall be indemnified and held harmless against any and all liabilities, including judgments, costs and reasonable counsel fees, for anything done or omitted by Escrow Agent in the performance of this Escrow Agreement except as a result of its willful misconduct or gross negligence in its failure to perform an express obligation hereunder. All such reimbursements and indemnifications shall be the joint and several obligation of the Company and each Purchaser. 25 (f) Expenses of Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent's expenses and fees shall be deducted from any interest accrued on the Escrow Deposit prior to the distribution of such accrued interest to the Company in accordance with this Section 8. Any expenses and fees of Escrow Agent in excess of the accrued interest on the Escrow Deposit shall be the responsibility of the Company and shall be paid promptly upon receipt of an invoice from Escrow Agent. 9. GOVERNING LAW; MISCELLANEOUS. (a) Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and to be performed in the State of Delaware. The Company and each Purchaser irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States federal courts and the state courts located in the County of New Castle, State of Delaware, in any suit or proceeding based on or arising under this Agreement and irrevocably agree that all claims in respect of such suit or proceeding may be determined in such courts. The Company irrevocably waives the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit or proceeding. The Company further agrees that service of process upon the Company mailed by first class mail shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Company in any such suit or proceeding. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any Purchaser to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. The Company agrees that a final non-appealable judgment in any such suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on such judgment or in any other lawful manner. (b) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. This Agreement, once executed by a party, may be delivered to the other parties hereto by facsimile transmission of a copy of this Agreement bearing the signature of the party so delivering this Agreement. In the event any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, the party using such means of delivery shall cause the manually executed execution page(s) hereof to be physically delivered to the other party within five days of the execution hereof, provided that the failure to so deliver any manually executed execution page shall not affect the validity or enforceability of this Agreement. (c) Construction. Whenever the context requires, the gender of any word used in this Agreement includes the masculine, feminine or neuter, and the number of any word includes the singular or plural. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to articles and sections refer to articles and sections of this Agreement, and all references to schedules are to schedules attached hereto, each of which is made a part hereof for all purposes. The descriptive headings of the several articles and sections of this Agreement are inserted for purposes of reference only, and shall not affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof. (d) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. 26 (e) Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including any schedules and exhibits hereto and thereto) contain the entire understanding of the Purchasers, the Company, their affiliates and persons acting on their behalf with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company nor the Purchasers make any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. No provision of this Agreement may be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party to be charged with enforcement, and no provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and each Purchaser. No consideration shall be paid to a Purchaser by the Company in connection with an amendment hereto unless each Purchaser similarly affected by such amendment receives a pro rata amount of consideration from the Company, and, unless a Purchaser agrees otherwise, each amendment hereto shall similarly affect each Purchaser. (f) Notices. Any notices required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement shall be sent by certified or registered mail (return receipt requested) or delivered personally, by responsible overnight carrier or by confirmed facsimile, and shall be effective five days after being placed in the mail, if mailed, or upon receipt or refusal of receipt, if delivered personally or by responsible overnight carrier or confirmed facsimile, in each case addressed to a party.

(k) Further Assurances.

In consideration of each Purchaser's execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and purchase of the Securities hereunder, and in addition to all of the Company's other obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, from and after the Closing, the Company shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Purchaser and each other holder of the Securities and all of their stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing persons' agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, collectively, the "INDEMNITEES") from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements (the "INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES"), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained in this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby or (iii) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company) and arising out of or resulting from (A) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (B) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance and sale of the Securities, (C) any disclosure made by such Purchaser pursuant to Section 4(b) or 4(o) hereof, or (D) the status of such Purchaser or holder of the Securities as an investor in the Company. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the mechanics and procedures with respect to the rights and obligations under this Section 9(l) shall be the same as those set forth in Section 6(c) of the Registration Rights Agreement. (m) Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Purchaser hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or any Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred. 29 (n) Joint Participation in Drafting. Each party to this Agreement has participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. As such, the language used herein and therein shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any party to this Agreement. (o) Equitable Relief. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the Purchasers by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transactions contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations hereunder (including, but not limited to, its obligations pursuant to Section 5 hereof) will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Agreement (including, but not limited to, its obligations pursuant to Section 5 hereof), that each Purchaser shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer of the Securities, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required. (p) Knowledge. As used in this Agreement, the term "knowledge" of any person or entity shall mean and include (i) actual knowledge of any of the Company's officers or directors and (ii) that knowledge which a reasonably prudent business person could have obtained in the management of his or her business affairs after making due inquiry and exercising due diligence which a prudent business person should have made or exercised, as applicable, with respect thereto. (q) Exculpation Among Purchasers. The Company acknowledges that the obligations of each Purchaser under this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under the Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it has independently evaluated the merits of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, that it has independently determined to enter into the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, that it is not relying on any advice from or evaluation by any other Purchaser, and that it is not acting in concert with any other Purchaser in making its purchase of securities hereunder or in monitoring its investment in the Company. The Purchasers and, to its knowledge, the Company agree that the no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or to the other Transaction Documents, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or would deem such Purchasers to be members of a "group" for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, and the Purchasers have not agreed to act together for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of equity securities of the Company. The Company has elected to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by the Purchasers. The Company acknowledges that such procedure with respect to the Transaction Documents in no way creates a presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a "group" for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange 30 Act with respect to the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in their review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser further acknowledges that SDS Capital has retained Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP to act as its counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and that Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP has not acted as counsel for any of the other Purchasers in connection therewith and none of the other Purchasers have the status of a client of Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP for conflict of interest or other purposes as a result thereof. (r) Business Days and Trading Days. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "business day" means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or a day on which banking institutions in the State of New York are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close, and the term "trading day" means any day on which the Bulletin Board or, if the Common Stock is not then traded on the Bulletin Board, the principal national securities exchange, automated quotation system or other trading market where the Common Stock is then listed, quoted or traded, is open for trading.
