property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except where the

obligations under any Transaction Document (any of (i), (ii) or (iii), a “Material Adverse
Effect”) and no Proceeding has been instituted in any such jurisdiction
revoking, limiting or curtailing or seeking to revoke, limit or curtail such

further action is required by the Company, the Board of Directors or the
Company’s stockholders in connection herewith or therewith other than in
connection with the Required Approvals.  This Agreement and each other
Transaction Document to which it is a party has been (or upon delivery will have
been) duly executed by the Company and, when delivered in accordance with the
terms hereof and thereof, will constitute the valid and binding obligation of
the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except

insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application
affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws

    (g)           Capitalization.  The
capitalization of the Company is as set forth in the SEC Reports, as
supplemented by Schedule 3.1(g).
Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports and Schedule 3.1(g), the Company has not
issued any capital stock since its most recently filed periodic report under the
Exchange Act, other than pursuant to the exercise of employee stock options
under the Company’s equity incentive plans, the issuance of shares of Common
Stock to employees pursuant to the Company’s employee stock purchase plans and
pursuant to the conversion and/or exercise of Common Stock Equivalents
outstanding as of the date of the most recently filed periodic report under the
Exchange Act.  No Person has any right of first refusal, preemptive
right, right of participation, or any similar right to participate in the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.  Except as a
result of the purchase and sale of the Securities, and for the various
outstanding series of preferred stock, warrants and options described in the SEC
Reports and Schedule
3.1(g), there are no outstanding options, warrants, scrip rights to
subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or
securities, rights or obligations convertible into or exercisable or
exchangeable for, or giving any Person any right to subscribe for or acquire,
any shares of Common Stock, or contracts, commitments, understandings or
arrangements by which the Company or any Subsidiary is or may become bound to
issue additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents.  The issuance and sale of the Securities will not
obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other securities to any
Person (other than the Purchasers and the Placement Agent) and will not result
in a right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise,
conversion, exchange or reset price under any of such securities. All of the
outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company are duly authorized, validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable, have been issued in compliance with all
federal and state securities laws, and none of such outstanding shares was
issued in violation of any preemptive rights or similar rights to subscribe for
or purchase securities.  No further approval or authorization of any
stockholder, the Board of Directors or others is required for the issuance and
sale of the Securities.  There are no stockholders agreements, voting
agreements or other similar agreements with respect to the Company’s capital
stock to which the Company is a party or, to the knowledge of the Company,
between or among any of the Company’s stockholders.

    (h)           SEC Reports; Financial
Statements.  The Company has filed all reports, schedules,
forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by the Company under
the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, including pursuant to Section 13(a) or
15(d) thereof, for the two years preceding the date hereof (or such shorter
period as the Company was required by law or regulation to file such material)
(the foregoing materials, including the exhibits thereto and documents
incorporated by reference therein, together with the Prospectus and the
Prospectus Supplement, being collectively referred to herein as the “SEC Reports”) on a
timely basis or has received a valid extension of such time of filing and has
filed any such SEC Reports prior to the expiration of any such
extension.  As of their respective dates, the SEC Reports complied in
all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act, as applicable, and none of the SEC Reports, when filed, contained
any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. The financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Reports
comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the
rules and regulations of the Commission with respect thereto as in effect at the
time of filing.  Such financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applied on a
consistent basis during the periods involved, except as may be otherwise
specified in such financial statements or the notes thereto and except that
unaudited financial statements may not contain all footnotes required by GAAP,
and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of the
Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of and for the dates thereof and
the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, subject, in
the case of unaudited statements, to normal, immaterial, year-end audit
adjustments.

     

    (i)
           Material Changes;
Undisclosed Events, Liabilities or Developments.  Since the
date of the latest audited financial statements included within the SEC Reports,
except as specifically disclosed in the SEC Reports the Registration Statement
or the Prospectus Supplement (i) there has been no event, occurrence or
development that has had or that could reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect, (ii) the Company has not incurred any liabilities
(contingent or otherwise) other than (A) trade payables and accrued expenses
incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and
(B) liabilities not required to be reflected in the Company’s financial
statements pursuant to GAAP or disclosed in filings made with the Commission,
(iii) the Company has not altered its method of accounting, (iv) the Company has
not declared or made any dividend or distribution of cash or other property to
its stockholders or purchased, redeemed or made any agreements to purchase or
redeem any shares of its capital stock and (v) the Company has not issued any
equity securities to any officer, director or Affiliate, except pursuant to
existing Company equity incentive plans. Except for the issuance of the
Securities contemplated by this Agreement or as set forth in the SEC Reports,
Registration Statement or Prospectus Supplement, no event, liability, fact,
circumstance, occurrence or development has occurred or exists or is reasonably
expected to occur or exist with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries or
their respective businesses, prospects, properties, operations, assets or
financial condition that would be required to be disclosed by the Company under
applicable securities laws at the time this representation is made or deemed
made that has not been publicly disclosed at least 1 Trading Day prior to the
date that this representation is made.


    
      
         


      

      
        11

        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    


    (j)           Litigation. Except as
disclosed in the SEC Reports, the Registration Statement or the Prospectus
Supplement, there is no action, suit, inquiry, notice of violation, proceeding
or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against
or affecting the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties
before or by any court, arbitrator, governmental or administrative agency or
regulatory authority (federal, state, county, local or foreign) (collectively,
an “Action”)
which (i) adversely affects or challenges the legality, validity or
enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents or the Securities or (ii)
could, if there were an unfavorable decision, have or reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect.  Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary, nor any director or officer thereof, is or has been 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, and to the knowledge of the Company, there is not pending or contemplated,
any investigation by the Commission involving the Company or any current or
former director or officer of the Company.  The Commission has not
issued any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of any
registration statement filed by the Company or any Subsidiary under the Exchange
Act or the Securities Act.

     

    (k)           Labor
Relations.  No labor dispute exists or, to the knowledge of the
Company, is imminent with respect to any of the employees of the Company, which
could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.  None of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ employees is a
member of a union that relates to such employee’s relationship with the Company
or such Subsidiary, and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a
party to a collective bargaining agreement, and the Company and its Subsidiaries
believe that their relationships with their employees are good.  To
the knowledge of the Company, no executive officer of the Company or any
Subsidiary, is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any material 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 in favor of any third party, and the continued
employment of each such executive officer does not subject the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries to any liability with respect to any of the foregoing
matters.

     

    (l)
           Compliance.  Neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary: (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 Subsidiary under),
nor has the Company or any Subsidiary received notice of a claim that it is in
default under or that it is in violation of, any indenture, loan or credit
agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by
which it or any of its properties is bound (whether or not such default or
violation has been waived), (ii) is in violation of any judgment, decree or
order of any court, arbitrator or other governmental authority or (iii) is or
has been in violation of any statute, rule, ordinance or regulation of any
governmental authority, including without limitation all foreign, federal, state
and local laws relating to taxes, environmental protection, occupational health
and safety, product quality and safety and employment and labor matters, except
in each case as could not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.

     

    (m)          Regulatory
Permits.  The Company and the Subsidiaries possess all
certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal,
state, local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their
respective businesses as described in the SEC Reports, except where the failure
to possess such permits could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect (“Material Permits”),
and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of
proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any Material
Permit.

     

    
      
         


      

      
        12

        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    

     

    (n)           Title to
Assets.  The Company and the Subsidiaries own no real property
and own good and marketable title in all personal property owned by them that is
material to the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries, in each case free
and clear of all Liens, except for (i) Liens as do not materially affect the
value of such property and do not materially interfere with the use made and
proposed to be made of such property by the Company and the Subsidiaries and
(ii) Liens for the payment of federal, state or other taxes, for which
appropriate reserves have been made in accordance with GAAP and, the payment of
which is neither delinquent nor subject to penalties. Any real property and
facilities held under lease by the Company and the Subsidiaries are held by them
under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases with which the Company and the
Subsidiaries are in compliance.

     

    (o)           Intellectual
Property.  The Company and the Subsidiaries have, or have
rights to use, all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark
applications, service marks, trade names, trade secrets, inventions, copyrights,
licenses and other intellectual property rights and similar rights necessary or
required for use in connection with their respective businesses as described in
the SEC Reports and which the failure to so have could have a Material Adverse
Effect (collectively, the “Intellectual Property
Rights”).  .  Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary
has received, since the date of the latest audited financial statements included
within the SEC Reports, a written notice of a claim or otherwise has any
knowledge that the Intellectual Property Rights violate or infringe upon the
rights of any Person, except as could not have or reasonably be expected to not
have a Material Adverse Effect.  To the knowledge of the Company, all
such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable and there is no existing
infringement by another Person of any of the Intellectual Property
Rights.  The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable
security measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of
their intellectual properties, except where failure to do so could not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.

     

    (p)           Insurance.  The
Company and the Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized financial
responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent
and customary in the businesses in which the Company and the Subsidiaries are
engaged, including, but not limited to, directors and officers insurance
coverage.  Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has any reason to
believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage 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.

    (q)           Transactions With Affiliates
and Employees.  Except as set forth in the SEC Reports, none of
the officers or directors of the Company or any Subsidiary and, to the knowledge
of the Company, none of the employees of the Company or any Subsidiary is
presently a party to any transaction with the Company or any Subsidiary (other
than for services as employees, officers and directors), including any contract,
agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or
by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from, providing for
the borrowing of money from or lending of money to or otherwise requiring
payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the knowledge
of the Company, any entity in which any officer, director, or any such employee
has a substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee, stockholder,
member or partner, in each case in excess of $120,000 other than for (i) payment
of salary or consulting fees for services rendered, (ii) reimbursement for
expenses incurred on behalf of the Company and (iii) other employee benefits,
including stock option agreements under any stock option plan of the
Company.

     

    (r)           Sarbanes-Oxley.  The
Company and the Subsidiaries are in compliance with any and all applicable
requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 that are effective as of the date
hereof, and any and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the
Commission thereunder that are effective as of the date hereof and as of the
Closing Date.

     

    (s)           Certain
Fees.  Except as set forth in the Prospectus Supplement and
other than to Rodman & Renshaw, LLC, no brokerage or finder’s fees or
commissions are or will be payable by the Company or any Subsidiary to any
broker, financial advisor or consultant, finder, placement agent, investment
banker, bank or other Person with respect to the transactions contemplated by
the Transaction Documents.

     

    (t)           Investment Company.
The Company is not, and is not an Affiliate of, and immediately after receipt of
payment for the Securities, will not be or be an Affiliate of, an “investment
company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended.  The Company shall conduct its business in a manner so that
it will not become an “investment company” subject to registration under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

     

    (u)           Registration
Rights.  Except as set forth in the SEC Reports, no Person has
any right to cause the Company or any Subsidiary to effect the registration
under the Securities Act of any securities of the Company or any
Subsidiary.

     

    (v)           Listing and Maintenance
Requirements.  The Common Stock is registered pursuant to
Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, and the Company has taken no action
designed to, or which to its knowledge is likely to have the effect of,
terminating 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.  The Company has not, in the 12 months
preceding the date hereof, received 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 with all such listing and
maintenance requirements.

    (w)           Application of Takeover
Protections.  The Company and the 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 the Company’s
certificate of incorporation (or similar charter documents) or the laws of its
state of incorporation that is or could become applicable to the Purchasers as a
result of the Purchasers and the Company fulfilling their obligations or
exercising their rights under the Transaction Documents, including without
limitation as a result of the Company’s issuance of the Securities and the
Purchasers’ ownership of the Securities.

     

    (x)           Disclosure.  Except
with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the Company confirms that neither it
nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided any of the Purchasers or
their agents or counsel with any information that it believes constitutes or
might constitute material, non-public information which is not otherwise
disclosed in the Prospectus Supplement.   The Company understands
and confirms that the Purchasers will rely on the foregoing representation in
effecting transactions in securities of the Company.  All of the
disclosure furnished by or on behalf of the Company to the Purchasers regarding
the Company and its Subsidiaries, their respective businesses and the
transactions contemplated hereby, including the Disclosure Schedules to this
Agreement, is true and correct and does not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the
statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading. The Company acknowledges and agrees that no Purchaser
makes or has made any representations or warranties with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically set forth in
Section 3.2 hereof.

     

    (y)           No Integrated
Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations and
warranties set forth in Section 3.2, 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 cause this offering of the
Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of
any applicable shareholder approval provisions of any Trading Market on which
any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated.

     

    (z)           Solvency.  Based
on the consolidated financial condition of the Company as of the Closing Date,
after giving effect to the receipt by the Company of the proceeds from the sale
of the Securities hereunder and to the Company’s knowledge, (i) the Company’s
assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business as
now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking
into account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted by
the Company, consolidated and projected capital requirements and capital
availability thereof, and (ii) the current cash flow of the Company, together
with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to liquidate all of its
assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be
sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its liabilities when such
amounts are required to be paid.  The Company does not intend to incur
debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account
the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its
debt).  The Company has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances
which lead it to believe that it will file for reorganization or liquidation
under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any jurisdiction within one year
from the Closing Date.

    (aa)         Tax
Status.  Except for matters that would not, individually or in
the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect, the Company and its Subsidiaries each (i) has made or filed all United
States federal, state and local income and all foreign income and franchise tax
returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is
subject, (ii) has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges
that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns,
reports and declarations and (iii) has set aside on its books provision
reasonably adequate for the payment of all material taxes for periods subsequent
to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations
apply.  There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be
due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company
or of any Subsidiary know of no basis for any such claim.

     

    (bb)         Foreign Corrupt
Practices.  Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, nor to the
knowledge of the Company or any Subsidiary, any agent or other person acting on
behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary, has (i) directly or indirectly, used
any funds for unlawful contributions, gifts, entertainment or other unlawful
expenses related to foreign or domestic political activity, (ii) made any
unlawful payment to foreign or domestic government officials or employees or to
any foreign or domestic political parties or campaigns from corporate funds,
(iii) failed to disclose fully any contribution made by the Company or any
Subsidiary (or made by any person acting on its behalf of which the Company is
aware) which is in violation of law, or (iv) violated in any material respect
any provision of FCPA.

     

    (cc)         Accountants.  The
Company’s accounting firm is set forth on the Prospectus
Supplement.  To the knowledge and belief of the Company, such
accounting firm (i) is a registered public accounting firm as required by the
Exchange Act and (ii) shall express its opinion with respect to the financial
statements to be included in the Company’s Annual Report for the fiscal year
ending December 31, 2010.

     

    (dd)       
Acknowledgment
Regarding Purchasers’ Purchase of Securities.  The 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 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 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 of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Company
and its representatives.

    (ee)         Acknowledgement Regarding
Purchaser’s Trading Activity.  Anything in this Agreement or elsewhere
herein to the contrary notwithstanding (except for Sections 3.2(e) and 4.14
hereof), it is understood and acknowledged by the Company that: (i) none of the
Purchasers has been asked by the Company to agree, nor has any Purchaser agreed,
to desist from purchasing or selling, long and/or short, securities of the
Company, or “derivative” securities based on securities issued by the Company or
to hold the Securities for any specified term; (ii) past or future open market
or other transactions by any Purchaser, specifically including, without
limitation, Short Sales or “derivative” transactions, before or after the
closing of this or future private placement transactions, may negatively impact
the market price of the Company’s publicly-traded securities; (iii) any
Purchaser, and counter-parties in “derivative” transactions to which any such
Purchaser is a party, directly or indirectly, presently may have a “short”
position in the Common Stock, and (iv) each Purchaser shall not be deemed to
have any affiliation with or control over any arm’s length counter-party in any
“derivative” transaction.  The Company further understands and
acknowledges that (y) one or more Purchasers may engage in hedging activities at
various times during the period that the Securities are outstanding, including,
without limitation, during the periods that the value of the Warrant Shares
deliverable with respect to Securities are being determined, and (z) such
hedging activities (if any) could reduce the value of the existing stockholders'
equity interests in the Company at and after the time that the hedging
activities are being conducted.  The Company acknowledges that such
aforementioned hedging activities do not constitute a breach of any of the
Transaction Documents.

     

    (ff)          Regulation M
Compliance.  The Company has not, and to its knowledge no one acting
on its behalf has, (i) taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to

security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of any of the
Securities, (ii) sold, bid for, purchased, or, paid any compensation for
soliciting purchases of, any of the Securities, or (iii) paid or agreed to pay

compensation paid to the Company’s placement agent in connection with the
placement of the Securities.

Company's knowledge, any director, officer, agent, employee or affiliate of the
Company  or any Subsidiary is currently subject to any U.S. sanctions
administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Treasury
Department (“OFAC”).

Corporation.  The Company is not and has never been a U.S. real
property holding corporation within the meaning of Section 897 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Company shall so certify upon
Purchaser’s request.

record-keeping and reporting requirements of the Currency and Foreign

governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving the Company
or any Subsidiary with respect to the Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to
the knowledge of the Company or any Subsidiary, threatened.

Warranties of the Purchasers.  Each Purchaser, for itself and
for no other Purchaser, hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof and
as of the Closing Date to the Company as follows (unless as of a specific date
therein):

     

    (a)          
Organization;
Authority.  Such Purchaser is either an individual or an entity
duly incorporated or formed, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation with full right,
corporate, partnership, limited liability company or similar power and authority
to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The
execution and delivery of this Agreement and performance by such Purchaser of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate, partnership, limited liability company or similar action,
as applicable, on the part of such Purchaser.  Each Transaction
Document to which it is a party has been duly executed by such Purchaser, and
when delivered by such Purchaser in accordance with the terms hereof, will
constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of such Purchaser,
enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except: (i) as limited by
general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting
enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to
the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable
remedies and (iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions may be
limited by applicable law.

     

    (b)         
Understandings or
Arrangements.  Such Purchaser is acquiring the Securities as
principal for its own account and has no direct or indirect arrangement or
understandings with any other persons to distribute or regarding the
distribution of such Securities (this representation and warranty not limiting
such Purchaser’s right to sell the Securities pursuant to the Registration
Statement or otherwise in compliance with applicable federal and state
securities laws).  Such Purchaser is acquiring the Securities
hereunder in the ordinary course of its business.

     

    
      
         


      

      
        18

        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    

     

    (c)           Purchaser
Status.  At the time such Purchaser was offered the Securities,
it was, and as of the date hereof it is, and on each date on which it exercises
any Warrants, it will be either: (i) an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule
501(a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3), (a)(7) or (a)(8) under the Securities Act or (ii) a
“qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A(a) under the Securities
Act.  Such Purchaser is not required to be registered as a
broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act.

     

    (d)           Experience of Such
Purchaser.  Such Purchaser, either alone or together with its
representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business
and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
the prospective investment in the Securities, and has so evaluated the merits
and risks of such investment.  Purchaser has had access to such
information as it deemed necessary in order to conduct any due diligence it has
determined it wants to do in connection with the purchase and sale of the
Securities and its decision to participate in such purchase and
sale.  Such Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an
investment in the Securities and, at the present time, is able to afford a
complete loss of such investment.  Such Purchaser understands that
nothing in the Agreement or any other materials presented to the Purchaser in
connection with the purchase and sale of the Securities constitutes legal, tax
or investment advice. Such Purchaser acknowledges that it must rely on legal,
tax and investment advisors of its own choosing in connection with its purchase
of the Securities.

     

    (e)           Certain Transactions and
Confidentiality.  Other than consummating the transactions
contemplated hereunder, such Purchaser has not, nor has any Person acting on
behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Purchaser, directly or
indirectly executed any purchases or sales, including Short Sales, of the
securities of the Company during the period commencing as of the time that such
Purchaser first received a term sheet (written or oral) from the Company or any
other Person representing the Company setting forth the material terms of the
transactions contemplated hereunder and ending immediately prior to the
execution hereof.  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 direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the
portfolio managers managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the
representation set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion of
assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to
purchase the Securities covered 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). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for avoidance of doubt,
nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty, or
preclude any actions, with respect to the identification of the availability of,
or securing of, available shares to borrow in order to effect Short Sales or
similar transactions in the future.

     

    (f)           No Intent to Take
Over.  Such Purchaser has not present actual intent to seek to
effect, or to assist others in effecting, a hostile acquisition of the
Company.

     

    
      
         


      

      
        19

        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    

     

    (g)           No Governmental
Review.  Such Purchaser understands that no U.S. federal or
state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed upon or
made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities purchase
hereunder.

     

    (h)           Beneficial
Ownership.  Immediately following such Purchaser’s purchase of
Securities hereunder, such Purchaser, together with its Affiliates, will not
beneficially own more than 4.99% of the Common Stock.  For purposes
hereof, beneficial ownership and all determinations and calculations shall be
determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.

     

    The
Company acknowledges and agrees that the representations contained in Section
3.2 shall not modify, amend or affect such Purchaser’s right to rely on the
Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any
representations and warranties contained in any other Transaction Document or
any other document or instrument executed and/or delivered in connection with
this Agreement or the consummation of the transaction contemplated
hereby.

     

    ARTICLE
IV.

    OTHER
AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

     

    4.1           Warrant
Shares.  If all or any portion of a Warrant is exercised at a
time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the issuance or
resale of the Warrant Shares or if the Warrant is exercised via cashless
exercise, the Warrant Shares issued pursuant to any such exercise shall be
issued free of all legends.  If at any time following the date hereof
the Registration Statement (or any subsequent registration statement registering
the sale or resale of the Warrant Shares) is not effective or is not otherwise
available for the sale or resale of the Warrant Shares, the Company shall
immediately notify the holders of the Warrants in writing that such registration
statement is not then effective and thereafter shall promptly notify such
holders when the registration statement is effective again and available for the
sale or resale of the Warrant Shares (it being understood and agreed that the
foregoing shall not limit the ability of the Company to issue, or any Purchaser
to sell, any of the Warrant Shares in compliance with applicable federal and
state securities laws).  The Company shall use best efforts to keep a
registration statement (including the Registration Statement) registering the
issuance or resale of the Warrant Shares effective during the term of the
Warrants.

     

    4.2           Furnishing of
Information.  Until the earliest of the time that (i) no
Purchaser owns Securities or (ii) the Warrants have expired, the Company
covenants to use its reasonable best efforts to timely file (or obtain
extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all
reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to
the Exchange Act even if the Company is not then subject to the reporting
requirements of the Exchange Act.

     

    4.3           Integration.  The
Company shall not 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 would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities 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.

    4.4           Securities Laws Disclosure;
Publicity.  The Company shall (a) by 9:00 a.m. (New York City
time) on the Trading Day immediately following the date hereof, issue a press
release disclosing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby,
and (b) file a Current Report on Form 8-K, including the Transaction Documents
as exhibits thereto, with the Commission within the time required by the
Exchange Act.  From and after the issuance of such press release, the
Company represents to the Purchasers that it shall have publicly disclosed all
material, non-public information delivered to any of the Purchasers by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective officers,
directors, employees or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated
by the Transaction Documents.  The Company and each Purchaser shall
consult with each other in issuing any other press releases with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby, and neither the Company nor any Purchaser
shall issue any such press release nor otherwise make any such public statement
without the prior consent of the Company, with respect to any press release of
any Purchaser, or without the prior consent of each Purchaser, with respect to
any press release of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be
withheld or delayed, except if such disclosure is required by law, in which case
the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of
such public statement or communication.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Purchaser, or
include the name of any Purchaser in any filing with the Commission or any
regulatory agency or Trading Market, without the prior written consent of such
Purchaser, except (a) as required by federal securities law in connection with
the filing of final Transaction Documents (including signature pages thereto)
with the Commission and (b) to the extent such disclosure is required by law or
Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the
Purchasers with prior notice of such disclosure permitted under this clause
(b).

     

    4.5           Shareholder Rights
Plan.  No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or,
with the consent of the Company, any other Person, that any Purchaser is an
“Acquiring Person” under any control share acquisition, business combination,
poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or similar
anti-takeover plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company,
or that any Purchaser could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan
or arrangement, by virtue of receiving Securities under the Transaction
Documents or under any other agreement between the Company and the
Purchasers.

     

    4.6           Non-Public
Information.  Except with respect to the material terms and
conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the
Company covenants and agrees that neither it, nor any other Person acting on its
behalf will provide any Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any information
that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless
prior thereto such Purchaser shall have entered into a written agreement with
the Company regarding the confidentiality and use of such
information.  The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser
shall be relying on the foregoing covenant in effecting transactions in
securities of the Company.

     

    4.7           Use of Proceeds. The
Company will use the proceeds as set forth in the Prospectus
Supplement.

    4.8           Indemnification of
Purchasers.   Subject to the provisions of this Section
4.8, the Company 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 persons (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 (a) any breach of any of the representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this Agreement or in
the other Transaction Documents or (b) any action instituted against the
Purchaser Parties in any capacity, or any of them or their respective
Affiliates, by any stockholder of the Company who is not an Affiliate of such
Purchaser Party, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by the
Transaction Documents (unless such action is based upon a breach of such
Purchaser Party’s representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction
Documents or any agreements or understandings such Purchaser Party may have with
any such stockholder or any violations by such Purchaser Party of state or
federal securities laws or any conduct by such Purchaser Party which constitutes
fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance).  If any
action shall be brought against any Purchaser Party in respect of which
indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Purchaser Party shall
promptly notify the Company in writing, and the Company shall have the right to
assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing reasonably
acceptable to the Purchaser Party.  Any Purchaser Party shall have the
right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the
defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the
expense of such Purchaser Party except to the extent that (i) the employment
thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the
Company has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and
to employ counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of
counsel, a material conflict on any material issue between the position of the
Company and the position of such Purchaser Party, in which case the Company
shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one
such separate counsel.  The Company will not be liable to any
Purchaser Party under this Agreement (y) for any settlement by a Purchaser Party
effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (z) 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.

     

    4.9           Reservation of Common
Stock. As of the date hereof, the Company has reserved and the Company
shall continue to reserve and keep available at all times, free of preemptive
rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of
enabling the Company to issue Shares pursuant to this Agreement and Warrant
Shares pursuant to any exercise of the Warrants.

    4.10         Listing of Common
Stock. The Company hereby agrees to use reasonable best efforts to
maintain the listing or quotation of the Common Stock on the Trading Market on
which it is currently listed.  The Company further agrees, if the
Company applies to have the Common Stock traded on any other Trading Market, it
will then include in such application all of the Shares and Warrant Shares, and
will take such other action as is necessary to cause all of the Shares and
Warrant Shares to be listed or quoted on such other Trading Market as promptly
as possible.  The Company will then take all action reasonably
necessary to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on a Trading
Market and will comply in all respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and
other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Trading Market.

     

    4.11
        [RESERVED]

     

    4.12         Subsequent Equity
Sales.

     

    (a)           From
the date hereof until 30 days after the Closing Date, neither the Company nor
any Subsidiary shall issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the
issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock
Equivalents.

     

    (b)           From
the date hereof until such time as no Purchaser holds any of the Warrants, the
Company shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to
effect any issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of Common Stock or
Common Stock Equivalents for cash consideration (or a combination of units
hereof) involving a Variable Rate Transaction.  “Variable Rate
Transaction” means a transaction in which the Company (i) issues or sells
any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or
exercisable for, or include the right to receive additional shares of Common
Stock either (A) at a conversion price, exercise price or exchange rate or other
price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of or quotations
for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such
debt or equity securities, or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price
that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of
such debt or equity security (but not including customary anti-dilution
provisions) or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or
indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the Common
Stock or (ii) enters into any agreement, including, but not limited to, an
equity line of credit, whereby the Company may sell securities at a future
determined price.  Any Purchaser shall be entitled to obtain
injunctive relief against the Company to preclude any such issuance, which
remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages.

     

    (c)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing, this Section 4.12 shall not apply in respect of an Exempt
Issuance, except that no Variable Rate Transaction shall be an Exempt
Issuance.

     

    4.13         Equal Treatment of
Purchasers.  No consideration (including any modification of
any Transaction Document) shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or
consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction
Documents unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to
the Transaction Documents.  For clarification purposes, this provision
constitutes a separate right granted to each Purchaser by the Company and
negotiated separately by each Purchaser, and is intended for the Company to
treat the Purchasers as a class and shall not in any way be construed as the
Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase,
disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise.

    4.14         Certain Transactions and
Confidentiality. Each Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other
Purchasers, covenants that neither it nor any Affiliate acting on its behalf or
pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any purchases or sales,
including Short Sales of any of the Company’s securities during the period
commencing with the execution of this Agreement and ending at such time that the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced
pursuant to the initial press release as described in Section 4.4.  Each
Purchaser, severally and not jointly with the other Purchasers, covenants that
until such time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly
disclosed by the Company pursuant to the initial press release as described in
Section 4.4, such Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of the existence
and terms of this transaction and the information included in the Disclosure
Schedules.  Notwithstanding the foregoing and notwithstanding anything
contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company expressly acknowledges
and agrees that (i) no Purchaser makes any representation, warranty or covenant
hereby that it will not engage in effecting transactions in any securities of
the Company after the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
are first publicly announced pursuant to the initial press release as described
in Section 4.4, (ii) no Purchaser shall be restricted or prohibited from
effecting any transactions in any securities of the Company in accordance with
applicable securities laws from and after the time that the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly announced pursuant to the
initial press release as described in Section 4.4 and (iii) no Purchaser shall
have any duty of confidentiality to the Company or its Subsidiaries after the
issuance of the initial press release as described in Section 4.4. 
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
direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers
managing other portions of such Purchaser’s assets, the covenant set forth above
shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio
manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Securities covered by
this Agreement.

     

    4.15         Capital
Changes.  Until the six month anniversary of the Closing Date,
the Company shall not undertake a reverse or forward stock split or
reclassification of the Common Stock without the prior written consent of the
Purchasers holding a majority in interest of the Shares.

    MISCELLANEOUS

     

    5.1           Termination. 
This Agreement may be terminated by any Purchaser, as to such Purchaser’s
obligations hereunder only and without any effect whatsoever on the obligations
between the Company and the other Purchasers, by written notice to the other
parties, if the Closing has not been consummated on or before November 15, 2010
through no fault of such Purchaser; provided, however, that no such
termination will affect the right of any party to sue for any breach by any
other party (or parties).

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 delivery of any Securities to the Purchasers.

     

    5.3           Entire
Agreement.  The Transaction Documents, together with the
exhibits and schedules thereto, the Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement,
contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings,
oral or written, with respect to such matters, which the parties acknowledge
have been merged into such documents, exhibits and schedules.

     

    5.4           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

modified, supplemented or amended except in a written instrument signed, in the
case of an amendment, by the Company and the Purchasers holding at least 67% in
interest of the Shares based on the initial Subscription Amounts hereunder or,
in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such
waived provision 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
waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any
delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner
impair the exercise of any such right.

     

    5.6           Headings.  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.

     

    5.7           Successors and
Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted
assigns.  The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Purchaser (other
than by merger).  Any Purchaser may assign any or all of its rights
under this Agreement to any Person to whom such Purchaser assigns or transfers
any Securities, provided the Purchaser provides prior written notice to the
Company and that such transferee agrees in writing to be bound, with respect to
the transferred Securities, by the provisions of the Transaction Documents that
apply to the “Purchasers.”

not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other
Person, except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.8.

Law.  All questions concerning the construction, validity,
enforcement and interpretation of the Transaction Documents 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 legal proceedings concerning the

this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a
party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders,
partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the

the enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably
waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim
that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that

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 other manner permitted by law.  If
either party shall commence an action, suit or proceeding to enforce any
provisions of the Transaction Documents, then the prevailing party in such
action, suit or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its
reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the
investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or
proceeding.

     

    5.10         Survival.  The
representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and
the delivery of the Securities for a period of one year thereafter.

     

    5.11         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 each
other party, it being understood that the 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 or “.pdf” signature page were an original thereof.

    5.12         Severability.  If
any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable,
the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth
herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected,
impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially
reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same
or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision,
covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the
intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms,
provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be
hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.

     

    5.13         Rescission and Withdrawal
Right.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
(and without limiting any similar provisions of) any of the other 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; provided, however, that in the
case of a rescission of an exercise of a Warrant, the applicable Purchaser shall
be required to return any shares of Common Stock subject to any such rescinded
exercise notice concurrently with the return to such Purchaser of the aggregate
exercise price paid to the Company for such shares and the restoration of such
Purchaser’s right to acquire such shares pursuant to such Purchaser’s Warrant
(including, issuance of a replacement warrant certificate evidencing such
restored right).

     

    5.14         Replacement of
Securities.  If any certificate or instrument evidencing any
Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue or
cause to be issued in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation
thereof (in the case of mutilation), or in lieu of and substitution therefor, a
new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction.  The
applicant for a new certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall
also pay any reasonable third-party costs (including customary indemnity)
associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.

     

    5.15         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 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 contained in the Transaction Documents and hereby agree to waive and
not to assert in any action for specific performance of any such obligation the
defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

     

    5.16         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 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.

    5.17         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 or non-performance of the obligations of any other
Purchaser under any Transaction Document.  Nothing contained herein or
in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant
hereto or 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 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.  Each Purchaser
has been represented by its own separate legal counsel in its review and
negotiation of the Transaction Documents.  For reasons of
administrative convenience only, each Purchaser and its respective counsel have
chosen to communicate with the Company through WS.  WS does not
represent any of the Purchasers and only represents Rodman & Renshaw,
LLC.  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 any of the
Purchasers.  It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision
contained in this Agreement and in each other Transaction Document is between
the Company and a Purchaser, solely, and not between the Company and the
Purchasers collectively and not between and among the Purchasers.

     

    5.18         Liquidated
Damages.  The Company’s obligations to pay any partial
liquidated damages or other amounts owing under the Transaction Documents is a
continuing obligation of the Company and shall not terminate until all unpaid
partial liquidated damages and other amounts have been paid notwithstanding the
fact that the instrument or security pursuant to which such partial liquidated
damages or other amounts are due and payable shall have been
canceled.

     

    5.19         Saturdays, Sundays,
Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any
action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a
Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on
the next succeeding Business Day.

     

    5.20         Construction. The
parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel have reviewed
and had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore, the
normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be
resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation
of the Transaction Documents or any amendments thereto. In addition, each and
every reference to share prices and shares of Common Stock in any Transaction
Document shall be subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits,
stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common
Stock that occur after the date of this Agreement.

     

    5.21         WAIVER OF
JURY TRIAL.  IN ANY
ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING IN ANY JURISDICTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST ANY
OTHER PARTY, THE PARTIES EACH KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY, TO THE GREATEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY ABSOLUTELY, UNCONDITIONALLY,
IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES FOREVER TRIAL BY JURY.
