after the closing of the Minimum Offering (the “Measuring Date”), of 500,000 new
Qualified Subscribers (as hereinafter defined) and (ii) the Company being Cash

Company being “Cash Flow Positive” no later than the Measuring Date shall mean
that during any three month period prior to the Measuring Date, the Company’s
business, operated in the ordinary course consistent with past practice, has
generated cash receipts during such period in excess of the Company’s cash
disbursements during such period.

    (b) No later
than 30 days following the Measuring Date, the Company shall deliver to JTF, as
representative of the Investors, a certificate (the “Certificate”) signed by the
Pledgor, in his capacity as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and by the
Company’s Chief Financial Officer, certifying that the Company has timely
attained the Target.  The Certificate shall be accompanied by (i) a
copy of a report from the Company’s independent auditors wherein the auditors,
based upon a review of the Company’s records, confirm that the Target has been
timely attained by the Company and (ii) such additional supporting documentation
as JTF shall reasonably request.  If within 15 days following receipt
of the Certificate and the other supporting documentation, JTF does not deliver
to the Company a notice (the “Notice”) disputing the Company’s timely attainment
of the Target, the Company shall be deemed to have timely attained the
Target.  If TJF shall deliver a Notice to the Company, the matter
shall be referred to an independent firm of public accountants mutually agreed
by the Company and TJF, whose decision shall be final and binding on the
parties.  The fees charged by independent firm of public accountants
shall be paid by the non-prevailing party.  If the Company fails to
deliver to TJF a Certificate within 30 days following the Measuring Date, it
shall be deemed that the Company has failed to timely attain the
Target.

    


    Section
1.04 FORMALITIES.  (a)
All certificates and instruments representing the Pledged Securities have been,
or, in the case of all Pledged Securities hereafter acquired, immediately upon
acquisition shall be, delivered to and shall be held by or on behalf of JTF
pursuant hereto in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or accompanied by
undated stock powers or other instruments of transfer or assignment, duly
executed in blank, all in form and substance satisfactory to JTF (“Transfer
Documents”).

    


    (b) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in clause (a) above, if any Pledged
Securities (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) are uncertificated
securities, Pledgor shall promptly notify JTF thereof, and shall promptly take
all actions required to perfect the security interest of JTF under applicable
law (including, in any event, under the provisions of Article 8 or 9 of the
Code, if applicable).  Pledgor further agrees to take such actions as
JTF deems necessary or desirable to effect the foregoing and to permit JTF to
exercise any of its rights and remedies hereunder, and agrees, promptly upon the
request of JTF, to provide an opinion of counsel, in form and substance
satisfactory to JTF, as to the validity and enforceability of the security
interest created by this Agreement with respect to such uncertificated
securities, the perfection of JTF's security interest therein and such other
matters as may be reasonably requested by JTF.

    


    (c) JTF shall
have the right, at any time in its reasonable discretion and without notice to
Pledgor, to (i) transfer to any of its nominees any or all of the Collateral,
subject only to the revocable rights set forth in Section 4.01 hereof and
applicable law, and (ii) so long as an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, to register any or all of the Collateral in its own
name.  In addition, JTF shall have the right at any time to exchange
certificates or instruments representing or evidencing Collateral for
certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations.

    


    (d) The
Pledgor hereby authorizes JTF, at the expense of Pledgor (including the fees and
expenses of counsel to JTF), to file one or more financing or continuation
statements, and amendments thereto, relating to all or any part of the
Collateral without the signature of Pledgor where permitted by law.  A
photocopy or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement
covering the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a financing
statement where permitted by law.  Pledgor understands and agrees that
even though JTF has no obligation to do so, with respect to any financing
statement, JTF intends to file (at the expense of Pledgor, including the fees
and expenses of counsel to JTF) any continuation statement or amendment where
failure to so file could reasonably be expected to result in the lapse of such
financing statement at any time within three months of any such proposed
filing.

rights, priorities and benefits afforded by the Code or other relevant law as
enacted  in any relevant jurisdiction to perfected security

and there will not ever be on file in any public office, any enforceable
financing statement or statements covering any or all of the Collateral, except
financing statements filed or to be filed in favor of JTF.

the timely and proper filing of financing statements and continuation statements
related thereto); or (iii) for the exercise by JTF of the voting or other rights
provided for in this Agreement or the remedies in respect of the Collateral
pursuant to this Agreement (except as may be required in connection with such
disposition by laws affecting the offering and sale of securities
generally).

    


    (h) This
Agreement, the Guarantee and the Escrow Agreement have been duly authorized,
executed and delivered by Pledgor and constitute legal, valid and binding
obligations of Pledgor, enforceable against Pledgor in accordance with their
respective terms, except to the extent that the enforceability hereof may be
limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and by equitable
principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at
law).

permitted by JTF, Pledgor will not sell, assign, or otherwise dispose of, grant
any option with respect to, or pledge, grant a security interest in or otherwise
encumber any of the Collateral or any interest therein, or suffer any of the
same to exist, and any sale, assignment, option, pledge, security interest or
other encumbrance or disposition of any nature whatsoever made in violation of
this covenant shall be a nullity and of no force and effect, and upon demand of
JTF, shall forthwith be canceled or satisfied by an appropriate instrument in
writing.

    


    (m) Pledgor
shall give JTF prompt notice of any claim relating to the
Collateral.  Pledgor shall deliver to JTF a copy of each written
demand, notice or document received by it which may adversely affect JTF's
interest in the Collateral promptly upon, but in any event within five days

duty to exercise any of the aforesaid rights, privileges or options, and JTF
shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so
doing.

    


    (ii) All
rights of Pledgor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it
would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof and to

it hereunder, JTF shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of
any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights
pertaining to any Collateral.  JTF shall hold in its possession all
Collateral pledged, assigned or transferred hereunder, except as from time to
time any documents or instruments may be required for recordation or for the
purpose of enforcing or realizing upon any right or value thereby
represented.  JTF may, from time to time, in its sole discretion,
appoint one or more agents to hold physical custody, for the account of JTF, of
any or all of the Collateral.  JTF shall be deemed to have exercised
reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its
possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that
which JTF accords its own property, it being understood that JTF shall not have
any responsibility for (a) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls,
conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any
Collateral, whether or not JTF has or is deemed to have knowledge of such
matters, or (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any
parties with respect to any Collateral.

    Section
4.07 RELEASE
OF COLLATERAL.  Upon the timely attainment of the Target or if the
Minimum Offering is not attained by March 31, 2009, the parties hereto shall
notify the Escrow Agent, as such term is defined in the Escrow Agreement, to

Escrow Agent shall return to the party designated in the notice the Transfer
Documents and the certificates representing the Pledged
Securities.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, upon the timely attainment of the Target or if the Minimum Offering is
not attained by March 31, 2009, this Agreement and JTF’s security interest and
rights in and to the Pledged Securities shall terminate..

    


    ARTICLE
V.

    DEFAULT

    


    Section
5.01 EVENT OF
DEFAULT.  Each of the following shall be deemed an "Event of
Default":

    


    (a) A failure
by the Company to timely attain the Target;

    


    (b) Any
representation or warranty made by Pledgor in this Agreement is false,
misleading, or erroneous in any material respect on the date when made;
or

    


    (c) Pledgor
shall fail to perform, observe, or comply with any covenant, agreement or term
contained in this Agreement and such failure continues, without cure, for twenty
(20) days after written notice to Pledgor.

    


    Section
5.02 RIGHTS
AND REMEDIES.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and subject
to the notice and opportunity to cure (if any), JTF, on behalf of the Investors,
shall have the following rights and remedies:

    


    (i) JTF may
declare that the Obligations have not been attained, without demand,
presentment, notice of dishonor, notice of acceleration, notice of intent to
accelerate, notice of intent to demand, protest, or any other notice whatsoever,
all of which are hereby expressly waived by Pledgor;

    


    (ii) In
addition to all other rights and remedies granted to JTF in this Agreement and
in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing, or relating to the
Obligations, JTF shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party
under the Uniform Commercial Code in force in the State of New York as of the
date of this Agreement.  Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, JTF may (A) without demand or notice to Pledgor, collect, receive, or
take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, (B) sell or otherwise
dispose of the Collateral, or any part thereof, in one or more parcels at public
or private sale or sales, at JTF's offices or elsewhere, for cash or on credit,
and/or (C) bid and become a purchaser at any sale free of any right or equity of
redemption in Pledgor, which right or equity is hereby expressly waived and
released by Pledgor.  Upon the request of JTF, Pledgor shall assemble
the Collateral and make it available to JTF at any place designated by
JTF.  Pledgor agrees that JTF shall not be obligated to give more than
five (5) days written notice of the time and place of any public sale or of the
time after which any private sale may take place and that such notice shall
constitute reasonable notice of such matters.  JTF shall not be
obligated to make any sale of the Collateral regardless of notice of sale having
been given.  JTF may adjourn any public or private sale from time to
time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may,
without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so
adjourned;

    


    (iii) JTF may
cause any or all of the Collateral held by it to be transferred into the name of
JTF or the name or names of JTF's nominee or nominees;

    


    (iv) JTF may
cause any or all of the Collateral held by it to be transferred, pro rata, into
the names of the Investors;

    


    (v) JTF shall
be entitled to receive all cash and non-cash dividends payable in respect of the
Collateral;

    


    (vi) JTF shall
have the right, but shall not be obligated to, exercise or cause to be exercised
all voting rights and corporate powers in respect of the Collateral, and Pledgor
shall deliver to JTF, if requested by JTF, irrevocable proxies with respect to
the Collateral in form satisfactory to JTF;

    (vii) Pledgor
hereby acknowledges and confirms that JTF may be unable to effect a public sale
of any or all of the Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws and
may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted
group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to
acquire any shares of the Collateral for their own respective accounts for
investment and not with a view to distribution or resale
thereof.  Pledgor further acknowledges and confirms that any such
private sale may result in prices or other terms less favorable to Pledgor or
other seller than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such
circumstances, agree that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been
made in a commercially reasonable manner, and JTF shall be under no obligation
to take any steps in order to permit the Collateral to be sold at a public
sale.  JTF shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the
Collateral for any period of time necessary to permit any issuer thereof to
register such Collateral for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or under applicable state securities laws.  Pledgor hereby
waives any claims against JTF arising by reason of the fact that the price at
which the Collateral may have been sold at such private sale was less than the
price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the
Obligations even if JTF accepts the first offer received and does not offer the
Collateral to more than one offeree (and JTF or an affiliate of JTF may be the
only offeree and the purchaser of the Collateral); and

    


    (viii) On any
sale of the Collateral, JTF is hereby authorized to comply with any limitation
or restriction compliance with which is necessary, in the view of JTF's counsel,
in order to avoid any violation of applicable law or in order to obtain any
required approval of the purchaser or purchasers by any applicable governmental
authority.

    


    Section
5.03 SECURITY
INTEREST ABSOLUTE.  All rights of JTF hereunder and in and to the
Collateral, and all obligations of Pledgor hereunder, shall be absolute and
unconditional irrespective of:

    


    (a) any lack
of validity or enforceability of the Convertible Note, any agreement with
respect to any of the Obligations or any other agreement or instrument relating
to any of the foregoing;

    


    (b) any
change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all
or any of the Obligations or any other amendment or waiver  of or any
consent to any departure from this Agreement or any other agreement
or  instrument; or

    


    (c) any sale,
exchange, release or nonperfection of any other collateral, or any release of
any guarantor or any person liable in any manner for the collection of any of
the Obligations or any amendment or waiver of or consent to or departure from
the Convertible Note or any guaranty for all or any of the
Obligations.

    


    Section
5.04 WAIVER
AND CONSENT.

    


    (a) Pledgor
consents and agrees that JTF may in its absolute and sole discretion, at any
time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the
enforceability or security hereof: (i) accept new or additional instruments,
documents or agreements in exchange for or relative to any of the Collateral or
any part thereof; (ii) receive and hold additional security or guaranties for
the Obligations or any part thereof; (iii) release, reconvey, terminate, waive,
abandon, fail to perfect, subordinate, exchange, substitute, transfer or enforce
any security or guarantees and apply any security and direct the order or manner
of sale thereof; (iv) release any person from any personal liability with
respect to the Obligations or any part thereof; and (v) settle, release on terms
satisfactory to JTF or by operation of applicable laws or otherwise liquidate or
enforce any Obligations and any security or guaranty in any manner, and consent
to the transfer of any security.

    (b) Upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and subject to the
notice and opportunity to cure, if any, hereunder, JTF may enforce this
Agreement independently from any other document and independently of any other
remedy, security or guaranty JTF at any time may have or hold in connection with
the Obligations, and it shall not be necessary for JTF to marshal assets in
favor of Pledgor or any other person or to proceed upon or against and/or
exhaust my other security or remedy before proceeding to enforce this
Agreement.  Pledgor expressly agrees that JTF may proceed against any
or all of the Collateral or guaranties for the Obligations in such order and in
such manner as it shall determine in its sole and absolute
discretion.  JTF may file a separate action or actions against
Pledgor, whether action is brought or prosecuted with respect to any other
security or against any other person, or whether any other person is joined in
any such action or actions.  Pledgor expressly waives the benefit of
any statute(s) of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the
enforcement of the Obligations or the lien or security interest created or
granted herein.

    


    (c) Pledgor
expressly waives any and all defenses now or hereafter arising or asserted by
reason of (i) the failure of priority of any security for the Obligations (ii)
any failure of JTF to give notice of sale or other disposition of any property
securing the Obligations to Pledgor or any other person or any defect in any
notice that may be given in connection with any sale or disposition of any
property securing the Obligations, (iii) any failure of JTF to comply with
applicable laws in connection with the sale or other disposition of any property
securing the Obligations, including, without limitation, any failure of JTF to
conduct a commercially reasonable sale or other disposition of any property
securing the Obligations, (iv) any act or omission of JTF or others that
directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge or release of the
Obligations or any other security or guaranty therefor by operation of law or
otherwise, (v) any law that provides that the obligation of a surety or
guarantor must neither be larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome
than that of the principal or that reduces a surety's or guarantor's obligation
in proportion to the principal's obligation, (vi) any failure of JTF to file or
enforce a claim in any bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to any
person, (vii) the election by JTF, in any bankruptcy proceeding of any person,
of the application or nonapplication of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States
Bankruptcy Code, (viii) any extension of credit or the grant of any lien under
Section 364 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, (ix) any use of cash
collateral under Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, (x) any
agreement or stipulation with respect to the provision of adequate protection in
any bankruptcy proceeding of any person, (xi) the avoidance of any bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, liquidation or
dissolution proceeding of any Person, including any discharge of, or bar or stay
against collecting, all or any of the Obligations in or as a result of any such
proceeding, or (xii) any action taken by JTF that is authorized by this Section
or any other provision of the Guarantee.
