Schedules delivered herewith: 


          (a) Subsidiaries.  Except for WBT Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation, the Company has no direct or indirect Subsidiaries except that upon

assets and to carry on its business as currently conducted. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1(b), neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation of any of the
provisions of its respective certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational or charter documents. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries is duly qualified to conduct business and is in good standing as a foreign
corporation or other entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as the case may be, would not

-10-  












instituted, is pending, or, to the Company’s Knowledge, is threatened in any such jurisdiction revoking, limiting or curtailing or seeking to revoke, limit or curtail such power and authority or
qualification.

shareholders in connection therewith other than in connection with the Required Approvals.  Each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party has been (or upon delivery will have been) duly executed by the Company and is, or when delivered in

including all applicable Trading Markets), or by which any property or asset of the Company or a Subsidiary is bound or affected, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) such as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material
Adverse Effect.

provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply, except, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, where the failure to so pay or file any such

made that has not been publicly disclosed at least one Trading Day prior to the date that this representation is made. 


          (l) Environmental Matters. To the Company’s Knowledge, neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries (i) is in violation of any statute, rule, regulation, decision or order of any governmental agency or body or any court, domestic or foreign, relating to the use, disposal or release of hazardous or toxic substances or relating to the

such a claim. 


          (m) Litigation.  There is no Action which (i) adversely affects or challenges the legality, validity or enforceability of any of
the Transaction Documents or the Shares or (ii) except as specifically disclosed in the Company SEC Reports, could, if there were an unfavorable decision, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.  Neither the Company nor any
of its Subsidiaries, nor, to the Company’s Knowledge, any current director or officer thereof (in his or her capacity thereof), is or has been during the five-year period prior to the Closing Date the subject of any Action involving a claim of
violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary duty. There has not been, there is not pending or, to the Company’s Knowledge, there is not contemplated, any investigation by the Commission
involving the Company or, to the Company’s Knowledge, any current or former director or officer of the Company (in his or her capacity as such). The Commission has not issued any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of any
registration statement filed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act. 


          (n) Employment Matters.  No material labor dispute exists or, to the Company’s Knowledge,
is imminent with respect to any of the employees of the Company which would have a Material Adverse Effect. None of the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s employees is a member of a union that relates to such employee’s relationship with
the Company, and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to a collective bargaining agreement, and the Company and each Subsidiary believes that its relationship with its employees is good. No executive officer of the Company (as
defined in Rule 501(f) of the Securities Act) has notified the Company or any such Subsidiary that such officer intends to leave the Company or any such Subsidiary or otherwise terminate such officer’s employment with the Company or any such
Subsidiary. Other than in connection with the Acquisition, no executive officer, to the Company’s 


-14-  












Knowledge, is in violation of any term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or proprietary information agreement or non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or any restrictive
covenant which would have a Material Adverse Effect, and the continued employment of each such executive officer does not subject the Company or any Subsidiary to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. The Company and its
Subsidiaries are in compliance with all U.S. federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where the failure to be in compliance
would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.


          (o) Compliance. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) is in default under or in
violation of (and no event has occurred that has not been waived that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would result in a default by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under), nor has the Company or any of its Subsidiaries received notice

or violation has been waived), (ii) is in violation of any order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body having jurisdiction over the Company or its properties or assets, or (iii) is or has been in violation of, or in receipt of notice that it
is in violation of, any statute, rule or regulation of any governmental authority applicable to the Company, except in each case as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.


          (p) Regulatory Permits. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries possess all certificates,
authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct its respective business as described in the Company SEC Reports, except where the failure to possess such permits,
individually or in the aggregate, has not and would not have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect (“Material Permits”), and (i) neither the
Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such Material Permits and (ii) the Company is unaware of any facts or circumstances that the Company would reasonably expect
to give rise to the revocation or modification of any. 


          (q) Title to Assets. The Company and its Subsidiaries do not own any real property other than as
set forth in the Company SEC Reports. The Company and its Subsidiaries have good and marketable title to all personal property owned by them which is material to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as whole, in each case free and
clear of all liens, encumbrances and defects except such as do not materially affect the value of such property and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company and any of its Subsidiaries. Any real
property and facilities held under lease by the Company and any of its Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be
made of such property and buildings by the Company and its Subsidiaries.

other rights to use all foreign and domestic patents, patent applications, trade and service marks, trade and service mark registrations, trade names, copyrights, licenses, inventions, trade secrets, technology, Internet domain names, know-how and
other intellectual property (collectively, the “Intellectual Property”) used in the conduct of their respective businesses as now conducted or as proposed to be
conducted. Except as set forth in the Company SEC Reports and except where such violations or infringements would not have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, (a) to the Company’s Knowledge, there are no rights
of third parties to any such Intellectual Property; (b) to the Company’s Knowledge, there is no infringement by third parties of any such Intellectual Property; (c) there is no pending or, to the Company’s Knowledge, threatened action,

is no pending or, to the Company’s Knowledge,


-15-  












threatened action, suit, proceeding or claim by others challenging the validity or scope of any such Intellectual Property; and (e) there is no pending or, to the Company’s Knowledge, threatened action, suit,
proceeding or claim by others that the Company and/or any Subsidiary infringes or otherwise violates any patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret or other proprietary rights of others, and the Company is unaware of any other fact which would form
a reasonable basis for any such claim.

financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as the Company believes to be prudent and customary in the businesses and locations in which the Company and the Subsidiaries are engaged.  Neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries has received any notice of cancellation of any such insurance, nor does the Company or any Subsidiary have any knowledge that it will be unable to renew its existing insurance coverage for the Company and the Subsidiaries as and when
such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its business without a significant increase in cost. 


          (t)  Transactions With Affiliates and Employees. Except as set

necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, and (iv) the

compliance in all material respects with all of the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 which are applicable to it, except where such noncompliance would not have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.  The Company
maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or
submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission, including, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and its principal
financial officer or officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


          (w) Certain Fees. Except as set forth on Schedule
3.1(w), no person or entity will have, as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any valid right, interest or claim against or upon the Company or a Purchaser for any commission, fee or
other compensation pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into by or on behalf of the Company, other than the Placement Agent with respect to the offer and sale of the Shares and the Warrants(which placement agent fees are
being paid by the Company) or the issuance of the Warrant Shares. The Company shall indemnify,


-16-

          (x) Private Placement. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations and
warranties set forth in Section 3.3 of this Agreement, no registration under the Securities Act is required for the offer and sale of the Shares and the Warrants by the Company to the Purchasers under the Transaction Documents.

          (z) No Directed Selling Efforts or General Solicitation. Neither the Company, nor any of its
Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf has conducted any “general solicitation” or “general advertising” (as those terms are used in Regulation D) in connection with the offer or sale of any of the Shares and
the Warrants. 


          (aa) No Integrated Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations and
warranties set forth in Section 3.3, none of the Company, its Subsidiaries nor any of their Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, at any time within the past six months, made any offers or sales of any

Company of the Shares and the Warrants as contemplated hereby or (ii) cause the offering of the Shares and the Warrants pursuant to the Transaction Documents to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of any applicable law,
regulation or shareholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of any Trading Market on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated.



          (bb) Listing and Maintenance Requirements.  The Company’s Common Stock is registered
pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, and the Company has taken no action designed to terminate the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act nor has the Company received any notification that the Commission is contemplating
terminating such registration. Except as specified in the Company SEC Reports, the Company has not, in the 12 months preceding the date hereof, received written notice from any Trading Market on which the Common Stock is or has been listed or quoted
to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading Market. The Company is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue to be, in compliance in all

Company acknowledges and agrees that each of the Purchasers is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. 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 the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby and any advice given by any Purchaser or any
of their respective representatives or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby is merely incidental to the Purchasers’ purchase of the Shares and the Warrants.  The Company further
represents to each Purchaser that the Company’s decision to enter into this Agreement and the other

restrictive covenant which would have a Material Adverse Effect, and the continued employment of each such executive officer does not subject Whitehall or any Subsidiary to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing matters. Whitehall and
its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all U.S. federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of


-21-

no other Purchaser, represents and warrants as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date to the Company and Whitehall as follows: 


          (a) Organization; Authority.  Such Purchaser is an entity duly organized, validly existing and
in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization with the requisite corporate or partnership power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the applicable Transaction Documents and
otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution, delivery and performance by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or, if such Purchaser

and the Registration Rights Agreement and the consummation by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents of such Purchaser, (ii) conflict with, or constitute

is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws) applicable to such Purchaser, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such conflicts,
defaults, rights or violations which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of such Purchaser to perform its obligations hereunder. 


          (c) Investment Intent.  Such Purchaser understands that the Securities are “restricted
securities” and have not been registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law and is acquiring the Shares and the Warrants, and upon exercise of the Warrants, will acquire the Warrant Shares, as principal for its own
account and not with a view to, or for distributing or reselling such Securities or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws, provided, however, that by making the representations herein, such Purchaser does not agree to hold any of the Shares or Warrant Shares for any minimum period of time and reserves the right, subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the
Registration Rights Agreement, at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of such Securities pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or under an exemption from such registration and in compliance

          (g) Access to Information. Such Purchaser acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to review
the Disclosure Materials and has been afforded (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company and Whitehall

concerning the terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities and the merits and risks of investing in the Shares and the Warrants; (ii) access to information about the Company and Whitehall and their respective
financial condition, results of operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable it to evaluate its investment; and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such additional information that the Company and Whitehall possesses
or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the investment. Neither such inquiries nor any other investigation conducted by or on behalf of such Purchaser or its
representatives or counsel shall modify, amend or affect such Purchaser’s right to rely on the truth, accuracy and completeness of the Disclosure Materials and the Company’s and Whitehall’s representations and warranties contained in
the Transaction Documents. Such Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed decision with respect to its acquisition of the Securities. 


          (h)  Certain Trading Activities. Other than with respect to the
transactions contemplated herein, since the earlier to occur of (1) the time that such Purchaser was first contacted by the Company, Whitehall, the Placement Agent or any other Person regarding the transactions contemplated hereby and (2) the tenth
(10th) day prior to the date of this Agreement, neither the Purchaser nor any Affiliate of such Purchaser which (x) had knowledge of the transactions contemplated hereby,
(y) has or shares discretion relating to such Purchaser’s investments or trading or information concerning such Purchaser’s investments, including in respect of the Securities, and (z) is subject to such Purchaser’s review or input
concerning such Affiliate’s investments or trading (collectively, “Trading Affiliates”) has directly or indirectly, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or
pursuant to any understanding with such Purchaser or Trading Affiliate, effected or agreed to effect any purchases or sales of the securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any Short Sales involving the Company’s securities).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser and/or Trading Affiliate that is, individually or collectively, a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s or
Trading Affiliate’s assets and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s or Trading Affiliate’s assets, the representation
set forth above shall apply only with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager that have knowledge about the financing transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Other than to other Persons party to this Agreement, such
Purchaser has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction, the Acquisition and the Jumbo Form 8-K). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Purchaser makes any representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage in Short Sales in the securities of the Company after the Effectiveness Deadline (as defined in the
Registration Rights Agreement). 


          (i) Brokers and Finders. No Person will have, as a result of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, any valid right, interest or claim against or upon the Company, Whitehall or any Purchaser for any commission, fee or other compensation pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into by or on behalf of the
Purchaser. 


          (j) Independent Investment Decision.  Such Purchaser has independently evaluated the merits of
its decision to purchase Shares and the Warrants pursuant to the Transaction Documents, and such Purchaser confirms that it has not relied on the advice of any other Purchaser’s business and/or legal counsel in making such decision. Such
Purchaser understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials presented by or on behalf of the Company or Whitehall to the Purchaser in connection with the purchase of the Shares and the Warrants constitutes legal, tax or investment
advice. Such Purchaser has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of the Shares and the Warrants. Such Purchaser understands that the
Placement Agent has acted solely as the agent of the Company and Whitehall in this placement of the Shares and the Warrants and such Purchaser has not relied on the business or legal advice of the Placement Agent or any of its agents, counsel or
Affiliates in making its investment decision hereunder, and confirms that none of such


-26-  












Persons has made any representations or warranties to such Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. 


          (k) Reliance on Exemptions.  Such Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered
and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the truth and accuracy of, and such Purchaser’s compliance
with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgements and understandings of such Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Purchaser to acquire the Securities.



          (l) No Governmental Review. Such Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state
agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Securities nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the
merits of the offering of the Securities. 


          (m) Regulation M. Such Purchaser is aware that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to
sales of Common Stock and other activities with respect to the Common Stock by the Purchasers. 


          (n) Ownership. Such Purchaser, individually or with a group of related persons, does not own, or
immediately following the Closing, will not own, twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the Common Stock of the Company. 


The Company, Whitehall and each of the Purchasers acknowledge and agree that no party to this Agreement has made or makes any representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than
those specifically set forth in this Article III and the Transaction Documents. 


ARTICLE IV. 

OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES


     4.1 Transfer Restrictions. 


          (a) Compliance with Laws. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IV, each Purchaser
covenants that the Securities may be disposed of only pursuant to an effective registration statement under, and in compliance with the requirements of, the Securities Act, or pursuant to an available exemption from, or in a transaction not subject
to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in compliance with any applicable state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of any of the Securities other than (i) pursuant to an effective registration
statement, (ii) to the Company, (iii) to an Affiliate of a Purchaser or (iv) in connection with a bona fide pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel
selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred
Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, and shall have the rights of a Purchaser under this
Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.


            (b) Legends. Certificates evidencing the Securities shall bear any legend as required by the “blue sky” laws of any state and a
restrictive legend in substantially the following form, until such time as they are not required under Section 4.1(c): 


-27-  












  
    
      [NEITHER THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THESE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISABLE HAVE BEEN][THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN] REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
        AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE
        SECURITIES ACT OR (B) AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR BLUE SKY LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF
        COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY.  NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.

  




            The Company acknowledges and agrees that a Purchaser may from time to time pledge, and/or grant a security interest in, some or all of the legended Securities in connection with applicable securities laws, pursuant to a
bona fide margin agreement in compliance with a bona fide margin loan. Such a pledge would not be subject to approval or consent of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel to the pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in
connection with the pledge, but such legal opinion shall be required in connection with a subsequent transfer or foreclosure following default by the Purchaser’s transferee of the pledge.  No notice shall be required of such pledge, but
Purchaser’s transferee shall promptly notify the Company of any such subsequent transfer or foreclosure. Each Purchaser acknowledges that the Company shall not be responsible for any pledges relating to, or the grant of any security interest
in, any of the Securities or for any agreement, understanding or arrangement between any Purchaser and its pledgee or secured party. At the applicable Purchaser’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a
pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Securities, including the preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) of the Securities Act or other
applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of selling stockholders thereunder. Each Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, except as otherwise provided in Section 4.1(c), any Securities subject to a pledge or
security interest as contemplated by this Section 4.1(b) shall continue to bear the legend set forth in this Section 4.1(b) and be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 4.1(a) . 


            (c) Removal of Legends. The legend set forth in Section 4.1(b) above shall be removed and the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend
or any other legend to the holder of the applicable Shares upon which it is stamped or issue to such holder by electronic delivery at the applicable balance account at the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), if (i) such Shares are registered for resale under the Securities Act and are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement, (ii) such Shares are sold or transferred pursuant to
Rule 144 (assuming the transferor is not an Affiliate of the Company) and the Purchaser provides the Company with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that the securities may be sold pursuant to such rule, or
(iii) such Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k) and the Purchaser provides the Company with assurance reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that the securities may be sold pursuant to such rule. Any fees (with respect to the
Transfer Agent, Company Counsel or otherwise) associated with the removal of such legend shall be borne by the Company.  If any portion of the Warrant is exercised at a time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of
the Warrant Shares, or if such Warrant Shares may be sold under Rule 144(k)


-28-  












and the Purchaser provides the Company with assurance reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that the Warrant Shares may be sold pursuant to such rule, then such Warrant Shares shall be issued free of all
legends. Following the occurrence of any of (i) through (iii) above, or at such earlier time as a legend is no longer required for given Shares, the Company will, no later than three (3) Trading Days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the
Company or the Transfer Agent (with notice to the Company) of (i) a legended certificate representing such Shares (endorsed or with stock powers attached, signatures guaranteed, and otherwise in form necessary to affect the reissuance and/or
transfer) or (ii) an Exercise Notice in the manner stated in the Warrants to effect the exercise of such Warrant in accordance with its terms, and an opinion of counsel to the extent required by Section 4.1(a) or this Section 4.1(c), (such third
Trading Day, the “Legend Removal Date”) deliver or cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such Shares or Warrant Shares that is free from
all restrictive and other legends or by crediting the account of Purchaser’s prime broker with DTC. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set
forth in this Section, other than stop transfer instructions, if necessary.


            (d) Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent, and any subsequent transfer
agent, to issue certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC, registered in the name of each Purchaser or its respective nominee(s), for the Shares or Warrant Shares pursuant to the irrevocable transfer agent instructions
in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”). The
Company represents and warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 4.1(d) will be given by the Company to its transfer agent in connection with this Agreement, other than stop
transfer instructions, if necessary, and that Shares or Warrant Shares that have been cleared of the legend set forth in Section 4.1(b) in accordance with Section 4.1(c) shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company
as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations under this Section 4.1(d) will cause irreparable harm to a Purchaser. Accordingly, the Company
acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Section 4.1(d) will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 4.1(d), that a Purchaser
shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer. 


            (e) Acknowledgement.  Each Purchaser hereunder acknowledges its primary responsibilities under the Securities Act and accordingly will not sell any
Securities, or any interest therein without complying with the requirements of the Securities Act.  While the above-referenced registration statement remains effective, each Purchaser hereunder may sell the Shares and the Warrant Shares in
accordance with the plan of distribution contained in the registration statement and if it does so it will comply therewith and with the related prospectus delivery requirements unless an exemption therefrom is available. Each Purchaser, severally
and not jointly with the other Purchasers, agrees that if it is notified by the Company in writing at any time after the date any legend is removed pursuant to Section 4.1(c)
hereof that the registration statement registering the resale of the Shares or Warrant Shares is not effective or that the prospectus included in such registration statement no longer complies with the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities
Act, the Purchaser will refrain from selling such Shares or Warrant Shares until such time as the Purchaser is notified by the Company that such registration statement is effective or such prospectus is compliant with Section 10 of the Exchange Act,
unless such Purchaser is able to, and does, sell such Shares or Warrant Shares pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act. Both the Company and its Transfer Agent, and their respective
directors, officers, employees and agents, may rely on this Section 4.1(e) and each Purchaser hereunder will indemnify and hold harmless each of such persons from any breaches or violations of this Section 4.1(e) . 


-29-  












            (f) Buy-In. If the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason to issue to a Purchaser unlegended certificates within three (3) Business Days of receipt of
documents necessary for the removal of the legend set forth above (the “Deadline Date”), then, in addition to all other remedies available to such Purchaser, if on or after the
Business Day immediately following such three (3) Business Day period, such Purchaser purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the holder of shares of Common Stock that
such Purchaser anticipated receiving from the Company without any restrictive legend (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within three (3) Business Days after such
Purchaser’s request and in such Purchaser’s sole discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Purchaser in an amount equal to such Purchaser’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so
purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such shares of Common Stock) shall terminate, or (ii)
promptly honor its obligation to deliver to such Purchaser a certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock and pay cash to the Purchaser in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (a)
such number of shares of Common Stock, times (b) the Closing Bid Price on the Deadline Date. 


     4.2  Reporting Status.  During the two year period from and
after the Effective Date, 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 otherwise permit such termination. 


     4.3  Form D and Blue Sky. The Company agrees to timely file a
Form D with respect to the Shares and the Warrants as required under Regulation D. The Company, on or before the Closing Date, shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for or to
qualify the Shares and the Warrants for sale to the Purchasers at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification)
as any Holder reasonably requests in writing. 


     4.4 No Integration. Each of the Company and Whitehall shall not, and shall use its best efforts
to ensure that none of its Affiliates shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities Act) that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares
and the Warrants in a manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the sale of the Shares and the Warrants to the Purchasers, or that will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Shares and the Warrants for purposes of
the rules and regulations of any Trading Market such that it would require shareholder approval prior to the closing of such other transaction unless shareholder approval is obtained before the closing of such subsequent transaction. 


     4.5 Subsequent Registrations. Other than pursuant to the Registration Statement, prior to the
date that is 60 days after the Effective Date, the Company shall not file any registration statement (other than on Form S-8 or, in connection with an acquisition, on Form S-4) with the Commission with respect to any securities of the Company.



     4.6 Securities Laws Disclosure; Publicity. By 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Trading Day
immediately following the Closing, the Company shall issue a press release (the “Press Release”) reasonably acceptable to the Placement Agent, and that meets the
requirements of the safe harbor provided for in Rule 135c under the Securities Act, disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any
Purchaser or an Affiliate of any Purchaser, or include the name of any Purchaser or an Affiliate of any Purchaser in any press release or filing with the Commission (other than the Registration Statement) or any regulatory agency or Trading Market,
without the prior written consent of such Purchaser, except (i) as required by federal


-30-  












securities law in connection with (A) any registration statement contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement and (B) the filing of final Transaction Documents (including signature pages thereto) with the Commission
and (ii) to the extent such disclosure is required by law, request of the Staff of the Commission or Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the Purchasers with prior written notice of such disclosure permitted under this
subclause (ii). From and after the filing of the Jumbo Form 8-K, which will be filed within four (4) Business Days following the Closing Date (the “8-K Filing Date”),
no Purchaser shall be in possession of any material, non-public information received from the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents, that is not disclosed in the Press Release or in such Jumbo
Form 8-K. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that until such time as the transactions contemplated in this Agreement, including the Acquisition, are publicly disclosed by the Company as described in this
Section 4.6, such Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of this transaction, the Acquisition and the Jumbo Form 8-K).


     4.7 Non-Public Information.  Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, each of the Company and Whitehall shall not, and shall cause each Subsidiary and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, not to, provide any Purchaser with any
material, non-public information regarding the Company and Whitehall or any of their respective Subsidiaries from and after the filing of the Press Release without the express written consent of such Purchaser, unless prior thereto such Purchaser
shall have executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information.


     4.8 Indemnification. 


          (a) Indemnification of Purchasers. In addition to the indemnity provided in the Registration
Rights Agreement, each of the Company and Whitehall, severally and jointly, will indemnify and hold each Purchaser and its directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees and agents (and any other Persons with a functionally
equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), each Person who controls such Purchaser (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the
directors, officers, shareholders, agents, members, partners or employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling person
(each, a “Purchaser Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments,
amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation that any such Purchaser Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to third party claims against such Purchaser relating to any breach
of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company or Whitehall, as the case may be, in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents. The Company and Whitehall will not be liable to any Purchaser Party
under this Agreement to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to any Purchaser Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Purchaser Party
in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents. 


          (b) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings.  Promptly
after receipt by any Person (the “Indemnified Person”) of notice of any demand, claim or circumstances which would or might give rise to a claim or the commencement
of any action, proceeding or investigation in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 4.8(a), such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Company or
Whitehall, as the case may be, in writing and the Company or Whitehall, as the case may be, shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, and shall assume the payment of all
fees and expenses; provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified Person so to notify the
Company or Whitehall, as the case may be, shall not relieve the Company or Whitehall of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Company or Whitehall, as the case may be, is actually and 


-31-  












materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such
Indemnified Person unless: (i) the Company, Whitehall and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel; (ii) the Company or Whitehall, as the case may be, shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such
proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person in such proceeding; or (iii) in the reasonable judgment of counsel to such Indemnified Person, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be
inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. The Company and Whitehall shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
delayed or conditioned.  Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, the Company and Whitehall shall not effect any settlement of any pending or threatened
proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from
all liability arising out of such proceeding. 


     4.9 Listing of Shares and Warrant Shares. No later than two (2) Business Days after the Closing
Date, the Company shall have taken or shall take all necessary action to cause the Shares to be listed upon the Principal Trading Market, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed (subject to official notice of issuance) and shall
maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing. No later than two (2) Business Days after the Trigger Date, the Company shall have taken or shall take all necessary action to cause the Warrant Shares to be
listed on the Principal Trading Market, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are then listed (subject to official notice of issuance) and shall maintain, so long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing.  Further, if
the Company applies to have its Common Stock or other securities listed on any other Trading Market, it shall include in such application the Shares and, after the Trigger Date, the Warrant Shares and will take such other action as is necessary to
cause the Shares and Warrant Shares to be listed on such other Trading Market as promptly as practicable.


     4.10 Use of Proceeds. The Company and Whitehall intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of
the Shares and Warrants hereunder for working capital and general corporate purposes and the repayment of indebtedness (including, but not limited to, the indebtedness reflected on Schedule 2.1(d)) and not to redeem any Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents or to settle any outstanding Action. 


     4.11 Short Sales and Confidentiality After The Date Hereof. Each Purchaser shall not, and shall
cause its Trading Affiliates not to, engage, directly or indirectly, in any Short Sales involving the Company’s securities during the period from the date hereof until the earlier of such time as (i) the Effectiveness Deadline or (ii) this
Agreement is terminated in full pursuant to Section 6.18.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Purchaser that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Purchaser’s
assets and the portfolio managers have no knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the representation set forth above shall apply only with respect to the portion
of assets managed by the portfolio manager that have knowledge about the financing transaction contemplated by this Agreement.  Each Purchaser understands and acknowledges, severally and not jointly with any other Purchaser, that the Commission
currently takes the position that covering a short position established prior to effectiveness of a resale registration statement with shares included in such registration statement would be a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act, as set
forth in Item 65, Section 5 under Section A, of the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations, dated July 1997, compiled by the Office of Chief Counsel, Division of Corporation Finance.


-32-  












     4.12 Increase in Authorized Shares. No later than ten (10) Business Days, after the Closing
Date, the Company shall file a preliminary information statement on Schedule 14C (the “Preliminary Information Statement”) with the Commission to notify the
shareholders of the Majority Written Consent (as defined below) and the Proposed Amendments (as defined below) contained therein.  In the event that the Preliminary Information Statement is not reviewed by the Commission with ten (10) days of its
being filed with the Commission, then the Company shall promptly file a definitive information statement on Schedule 14C (the “Definitive Information Statement”) with
the Commission and mail a copy of such information statement to all of its holders of Common Stock.  However, in the event the Commission reviews the Preliminary Information Statement, then after the Commission has completed its review of the
Preliminary Information Statement, the Company shall file the Definitive Information Statement with the Commission and mail a copy of such information statement to all of its holders of Common Stock. The Proposed Amendments will become effective upon the
Company’s filing of a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware, which the Company shall file no later than the 25th
calendar day following the Company’s filing of the Definitive Information Statement.

          (a) Representations and Warranties.  The representations and warranties made by the Purchasers
in Section 3.3 hereof shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date when made, and as of the Closing Date as though made on and as of such date, except for representations and warranties that speak as of a specific date, which
specifically dated representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date. 


          (b) Performance.  The Purchasers shall have performed, satisfied and complied in all material
respects with all covenants, agreements and conditions required by the Transaction Documents to be performed, satisfied or complied with by the Purchasers at or prior to the Closing Date. 


          (c) Acquisition. Immediately prior to the Closing, the Acquisition shall have been consummated

          (d) No Injunction. No statute, rule, regulation, executive order, decree, ruling or injunction
shall have been enacted, entered, promulgated or endorsed by any court or governmental authority of competent jurisdiction that prohibits the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. 


-34-  












          (e) Purchasers Deliverables. Each Purchaser shall have delivered its Purchaser Deliverables in
accordance with Section 2.2(b) . 


          (f) Termination. This Agreement shall not have been terminated as to such Purchaser in

ARTICLE VI. 

MISCELLANEOUS 


     6.1 Fees and Expenses.  At Closing, the Company, on behalf of Whitehall, shall reimburse the
Placement Agent for the fees and expenses in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement pursuant to its obligations under its engagement letter with the Placement Agent (the “Engagement
Letter”), which the Company agrees shall include the fees and expenses of counsel to the Placement Agent (which fees shall include, without limitation, the fees and expenses associated with the negotiation,
preparation and execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers thereto). The Company and the Purchasers shall each pay the fees and expenses of their respective advisers,
counsel, accountants and other experts, if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees,
stamp taxes and other taxes and duties levied in connection with the sale and issuance of the Shares and Warrants to the Purchasers. Each party acknowledges that Lowenstein Sandler PC has rendered legal advice to the Placement Agent and not to such
party in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and that such party has relied for such matters on the advice of its own respective counsel. 


     6.2 Entire Agreement.  The Transaction Documents, together with the Exhibits and Schedules
thereto, contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, discussions and representations, oral or written, with respect to such matters, which the parties
acknowledge have been merged into such documents, exhibits and schedules. At or after the Closing, and without further consideration, the Company, Whitehall and the Purchasers will execute and deliver to the other such further documents as may be
reasonably requested in order to give practical effect to the intention of the parties under the Transaction Documents. 


     6.3 Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to
be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (a) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via facsimile (provided the sender receives a machine-generated
confirmation of successful transmission) at the facsimile number specified in this Section prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on a Trading Day, (b) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is
delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number specified in this Section on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Trading Day, (c) the Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S.
nationally recognized overnight courier service with next day delivery specified, or (d) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given. The address for such notices and communications shall be as follows:

     6.4 Amendments; Waivers; No Additional Consideration. No provision of this Agreement may be
waived or amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Company, Whitehall and each of the Purchasers holding or having the right to acquire a majority of the Shares at the time of such amendment or, in the case
of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver
of any subsequent default or a


-36-  












waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right. No consideration shall be
offered or paid to any Purchaser to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any Transaction Document unless the same consideration is also offered to all Purchasers who then hold Securities. 


     6.5 Construction.  The headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of
this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction
will be applied against any party. This Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this
Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents. 


     6.6 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and
be binding upon the parties and their successors and permitted assigns.  This Agreement, or any rights or obligations hereunder, may not be assigned by the Company or Whitehall without the prior written consent of the Purchasers, other than by
operation of law. Any Purchaser may assign its rights hereunder in whole or in part to any Person to whom such Purchaser assigns or transfers any Securities in compliance with the Transaction Documents and applicable law, provided such transferee
shall agree in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred Securities, by the terms and conditions of this Agreement that apply to the “Purchasers”. 


     6.7 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except (i) each Purchaser Party is an intended third party beneficiary of Section 4.8, (ii)
the Placement Agent is an intended third party beneficiary of Article III hereof, and (iii) the Escrow Agent is an intended third party beneficiary of Section 2.1(d) and Article VI hereof, and each Purchaser Party, the Placement Agent or the Escrow
Agent, as the case may be, may enforce the provisions of such Sections directly against the parties with obligations thereunder . 


     6.8 Governing Law.  All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and
interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all Proceedings
concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, employees or agents) shall be
commenced exclusively in the New York Courts. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction
contemplated hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the
jurisdiction of any such New York Court, or that such Proceeding has been commenced in an improper or inconvenient forum. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such
Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good
and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law.  EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.


-37-  












     6.9 Survival. Subject to applicable statute of limitations, the representations, warranties,
agreements and covenants contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the Shares and Warrants. 


     6.10 Execution. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when
taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In
the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission, or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature
is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile signature page were an original thereof. 


     6.11 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable in
any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision that is a
reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement. 


     6.12 Rescission and Withdrawal Right.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
(and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever any Purchaser exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document and the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the
periods therein provided, then such Purchaser may rescind or withdraw, in its sole discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future actions
and rights 


     6.13 Replacement of Shares. If any certificate or instrument evidencing any Shares is mutilated,
lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Transfer Agent of such loss, theft or destruction and the execution by the holder thereof of a customary lost certificate affidavit of that fact and an agreement to indemnify and hold harmless the
Company and the Transfer Agent for any losses in connection therewith or, if required by the Transfer Agent, a bond in such form and amount as is reasonably required by the Transfer Agent. The applicants for a new certificate or instrument under
such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable third-party costs associated with the issuance of such replacement Shares.  If a replacement certificate or instrument evidencing any Shares is requested due to a mutilation thereof, the Company may
require delivery of such mutilated certificate or instrument as a condition precedent to any issuance of a replacement. 


     6.14 Remedies. In addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted
by law, including recovery of damages, each of the Purchasers and the Company and Whitehall will be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any
loss incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing sentence and hereby agree to waive in any action for specific performance of any such obligation (other than in connection with any action for a temporary restraining
order) the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. 


     6.15 Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any
Purchaser pursuant to any Transaction Document or a Purchaser enforces or exercises its rights 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


-38-  












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.


     6.16 Adjustments in Share Numbers and Prices. In the event of any stock split, subdivision,
dividend or distribution payable in shares of Common Stock (or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly shares of Common Stock), combination or other similar recapitalization or
event occurring after the date hereof, each reference in any Transaction Document to a number of shares or a price per share shall be deemed to be amended to appropriately account for such event.


     6.17 Independent Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights.  The obligations of each
Purchaser under any Transaction Document 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 any Transaction
Document. The decision of each Purchaser to purchase Shares and Warrants pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Purchaser independently of any other Purchaser and independently of any information, materials, statements or
opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company, Whitehall or any Subsidiary which may have been made or given by any other
Purchaser or by any agent or employee of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser and any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any other Purchaser (or any other Person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials,
statement or opinions.  Nothing contained herein or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant thereto, 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 as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser acknowledges that no other Purchaser
has acted as agent for such Purchaser in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Purchaser will be acting as agent of such Purchaser in connection with monitoring its investment in the Shares and Warrants or enforcing its rights
under the Transaction Documents.  Each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be
necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.  The Company acknowledges that each of the Purchasers has been provided with the same Transaction Documents for the purpose of closing a
transaction with multiple Purchasers and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Purchaser. The Company’s obligations to each Purchaser under this Agreement are identical to its obligations to each other Purchaser other than
such differences resulting solely from the number of Shares and Warrants purchased by such Purchaser, but regardless of whether such obligations are memorialized herein or in another agreement between the Company, Whitehall and a Purchaser.



     6.18 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated and the sale and purchase of the Shares and
Warrants abandoned at any time prior to the Closing by either the Company and Whitehall or any Purchaser (with respect to itself only) upon written notice to the other, if the Closing has not been consummated on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City
time, on the Outside Date; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 6.18 shall not be available to any Person whose failure to comply
with its obligations under this Agreement has been the cause of or resulted in the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such time. Nothing in this Section 6.18 shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any breach by such
party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.
In the event of a termination pursuant to this Section, the Company and Whitehall shall promptly notify all non-terminating Purchasers and the Escrow Agent. Upon a termination in accordance with this Section, the Company and Whitehall and


-39-  












the terminating Purchaser(s) shall not have any further obligation or liability (including arising from such termination) to the other, and no Purchaser will have any liability to any other Purchaser under the Transaction
Documents as a result therefrom.
