certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s controls and procedures in accordance with the 1934 Act for the Company’s most recently ended fiscal quarter or fiscal year-end (such date, the “ Evaluation Date ”).

circumstances where neither such registration nor such an exemption is required by law.  The Purchaser has been advised and understands that the Company, in issuing the Shares and the Warrant, is relying upon, among other things, the representations and warranties of the Purchaser contained in this Section 2.2 in concluding that such issuance is a “private offering” and is exempt from the registration provisions of the 1933 Act.

            (h) Rule
144.  The Purchaser understands that there is no public trading market for the Shares or Warrant, that none is expected to develop, and that the Shares and Warrant must be held indefinitely unless and until such Shares and the Warrant, or if applicable, the Warrant Shares received upon exercise thereof are registered under the 1933 Act or an exemption from registration is available.  The Purchaser has been advised or is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933
Act.

 

(i) Brokers.  Except with respect to any fees owed to vFinance, the Purchaser has taken no action which would give rise to any claim by any person
for brokerage commissions, finder's fees or similar payments by the Company or the Purchaser relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

(j) Reliance by the Company.  The Purchaser understands that the Shares and the Warrant are being offered and sold in reliance on a transactional
exemption from the registration requirements of Federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of the Purchaser to acquire the Shares and the Warrant, and the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise thereof.

Until
such time as the Warrants are no longer outstanding, the Company shall use its best efforts to continue the listing or trading of the Shares and the Warrant Shares, if applicable, on the Principal Market or one of the other Approved Markets and shall comply in all material respects with the Company's reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Approved Market on which the Common Stock is listed.  The Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Warrant Shares to be listed
on the Principal Market or one of the other Approved Markets no later than the date of issuance of the Warrant, and shall use its best efforts to continue such listing(s) on one of the Approved Markets, for so long as the Warrants are outstanding.

 

Section 3.2 Constitution of Board of Directors.  Upon the Final Closing, the Company shall immediately seek the resignation of two of its current

2010 Annual General Meeting.

Section 3.4 Replacement of Shares.  The Shares held by the Purchaser (or then holder) may be exchanged by the Purchaser (or such holder) at
any time and from time to time for Shares with different denominations representing an equal aggregate principal amount of Shares, as requested by the Purchaser (or such holder) upon surrendering the same.  No service charge will be made for such registration or transfer or exchange.

 

Section 3.5 Securities Compliance. The Company shall notify the SEC and the Principal Market, in accordance with their requirements, of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, the Shares, the Warrants, and the Registration Rights Agreement, and shall take all other necessary action and proceedings as may be required and permitted by applicable law, rule and regulation, for the legal and valid issuance of the Shares and Warrant hereunder and the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise thereof.

 

Section 3.6 Reservation of Shares; Stock Issuable Upon Exercise.  Subject to Section 2.1(c) of this Agreement, the Company shall at all times
reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the exercise of the Warrant, such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the exercise of the Warrants issued to the Purchaser and the payment for any damages that may become due to the Purchaser due to the Company’s failure to register the Securities.

 

Section 3.7 Form D; Blue Sky Laws.  The Company agrees to file a Form D with respect to Shares and the Warrants in accordance with Regulation
D and to provide a copy thereof to the Purchaser promptly after such filing.  The Company shall, on or before the Closing Date, take such action as the Company shall have reasonably determined is necessary to qualify the Shares, the Warrants and Warrant Shares for sale to the Purchaser under applicable securities or “blue sky” laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification), and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Purchaser
on or prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith to register or qualify as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits or taxation, in each case, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject.

 

Section 3.8 Prohibition on Short Sales.  From and including the date of this Agreement and for so long as the Purchaser holds any outstanding
Shares, the Purchaser agrees that it will neither sell the Company’s stock short nor direct, instruct or otherwise influence any of its affiliates, principals or advisors to sell the Company’s stock short.  Further, the Purchaser agrees not to pledge, hypothecate, loan or enter into other hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Company’s Common Stock; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall have the
right to pledge the Company’s Shares pursuant to a bona fide margin account or lending arrangement entered into in compliance with law, including applicable securities laws, in such a manner that will not result, or be equivalent to, a short sale of the Company’s Common Stock.

 

Section 3.9 Material Changes.  On or before the Closing Date, the Company shall forthwith notify the Purchaser of any material change affecting
any of its representations, warranties, undertakings and indemnity at any time prior to payment being made to the Company on the Closing Date.

hitherto offered to the Company.  This funding commitment shall apply only in the event that the Qualified Financing is negotiated at arm’s-length with one or more unaffiliated third parties (except to the extent otherwise agreed upon by the Purchaser in writing).

Upon payment therefor as provided in this Agreement, the Company will issue the Shares in the name the Purchaser or its designees and in such denominations to be specified by such Purchaser prior to (or from time to time subsequent to) Closing.  The Securities and any certificate representing the Warrant Shares issued upon exercise
thereof, prior to such Warrant Shares being registered under the 1933 Act for resale or available for resale under Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

 





  



13







  





These Securities Have Not Been Registered For Offer or Sale Under The Securities Act Of 1933, As Amended, Or Any State securities laws.  They May Not Be Sold Or Offered For Sale Except Pursuant To An Effective Registration Statement Under Said Act And Any Applicable State Securities Law Or An Applicable
Exemption From Such Registration Requirements.

 

The Company agrees to reissue the Shares and Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the foregoing, without the legend set forth above, at such time as (i) the holder thereof is permitted to dispose of such Shares and Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the foregoing pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, or (ii) such securities
are sold to a purchaser or Purchaser who (in the opinion of counsel to the seller or such purchaser(s), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and its counsel) are able to dispose of such shares publicly without registration under the 1933 Act, or (iii) such securities have been registered under the 1933 Act.  If a Purchaser shall make a sale or transfer of Shares or Warrant Shares either (x) pursuant to Rule 144 or (y) pursuant to a registration statement under the 1933 Act and
in each case shall have delivered to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent the certificate representing Shares or Warrant Shares containing a restrictive legend which are the subject of such sale or transfer (the date of such sale or transfer and Share or Warrant Share, as the case may be, delivery being the “ Share Delivery Date ”) and (1) the Company shall fail to deliver or cause to be delivered (any such delivery shall
include crediting the Purchaser’s balance account with DTC) to such Purchaser a certificate representing such Shares or Warrant Shares that is free from all restrictive or other legends by the third Trading Day following the Share Delivery Date and (2) following such third Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date and prior to the time such Shares or Warrant Shares are received free from restrictive legends, the Purchaser, or any third party on behalf of such Purchaser, purchases (in an open market transaction
or otherwise) shares of Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Purchaser of such Shares or Warrant Shares (a " Buy-In "), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Purchaser (for costs incurred either directly by such Purchaser or on behalf of a third party) the amount by which the total purchase price paid for Shares as a result of the Buy-In (including brokerage commissions, if any) exceed the proceeds received by such Purchaser as
a result of the sale to which such Buy-In relates. The Purchaser shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Purchaser in respect of the Buy-In. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section.

 

Prior to the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) being declared effective, any Warrant Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the Warrant shall bear a legend in the same form as the legend indicated above; provided that such legend shall be removed from such shares and the Company shall issue new
certificates without such legend if (i) the holder has sold or disposed of such shares pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, or the holder is permitted to dispose of such shares pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, (ii) such shares are registered for resale under the 1933 Act, or (iii) such shares are sold to a purchaser or Purchaser who (in the opinion of counsel to the seller or such purchaser(s), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and its counsel) are able to dispose of such
shares publicly without registration under the 1933 Act.  Upon such Registration Statement becoming effective, the Company agrees to promptly issue new certificates representing such shares without such legend.  Any Warrant Shares issued after the Registration Statement has become effective shall be free and clear of any legends, transfer restrictions and stop orders.  Notwithstanding the removal of such legend, the Purchaser agree to sell the Warrant Shares represented by the new
certificates in accordance with the applicable prospectus delivery requirements (if copies of a current prospectus are provided to such Purchaser by the Company) or in accordance with an exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act.

 

Nothing herein shall limit the right of any holder to pledge these securities pursuant to a bona fide margin account or lending arrangement entered into in compliance with law, including applicable securities laws.

liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Purchaser Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Purchaser Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Purchaser Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation

willful misconduct.
