Stock, (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to
the Preferred Stock or alter or amend this Certificate of Designation, (b)
authorize or create any class of stock ranking as to dividends, redemption or

documents in any manner that adversely affects any rights of the Holders, (d)
increase the number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock, or (e) enter into
any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.

    


    Section
5.                 Liquidation. Upon any
liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or
involuntary (a “Liquidation”), the
Holders shall be entitled to receive out of the assets, whether capital or
surplus, of the Corporation an amount equal to $232 for each share of Preferred
Stock (the “Liquidation
Preference”) before any distribution or payment shall be made to the
holders of any Junior Securities, and if the assets of the Corporation shall be
insufficient to pay in full such amounts, then the entire assets to be
distributed to the Holders shall be ratably distributed among the Holders in
accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such shares if
all amounts payable thereon were paid in full.  The Liquidation
Preference per share of Preferred Stock shall be reduced by $0.86 for each share
of Common Stock issued pursuant to Section 6(a).  A Change of Control
Transaction shall not be deemed a Liquidation.  The Corporation shall
mail written notice of any such Liquidation, not less than 45 days prior to the
payment date stated therein, to each Holder.

    


    Section
6.                 Conversion.

    


    a)           Automatic Conversion.
On the Original Issue Date and on each Trading Day thereafter until the 76th Trading
Day following the Original Issue Date (an “Automatic Conversion
Date”), a fraction of each share of the Preferred Stock will
automatically convert proportionally and pro-rata among the Holders into shares
of Common Stock if the VWAP on any Trading Day commencing with and including
March 2, 2009 (an “Automatic Conversion
Price”) is less than the lesser of (i) $1.12, subject to adjustment
for reverse and forward stock splits and the like, and (ii) the lowest VWAP
pursuant to which shares were previously issued under this Section 6(a); provided, however, that in no
event shall the Automatic Conversion Price be less than $0.86, subject to
adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits and the like.  The
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the
Preferred Stock on an Automatic Conversion Date shall be equal to (a) the number
of shares of Preferred Stock outstanding multiplied by the Stated Value divided
by the applicable Automatic Conversion Price (as defined above) less
(b) the aggregate number of Shares issued at the Closing pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement less (c) the shares of Common Stock previously issued
pursuant to this Section 6(a).  On the 76th Trading
Day following the Original Issue Date, the Preferred Stock not previously
converted shall be deemed cancelled (provided that the Holders will retain the
rights and remedies to receive any shares of Common Stock issuable under this
Section 6(a) and not previously received).  For purposes of
clarification, in the event that, prior to the 76th Trading
Day following the Original Issue Date, the VWAP on any Trading Day during such
period is $0.86 or less (subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock
splits and the like), all 2,000 issued shares of Preferred Stock shall have been
converted into 539,867 shares of Common Stock, in the aggregate (subject to
adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits and the like) and upon issuance
thereof, the Preferred Stock shall be deemed cancelled.  For every
share of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Section 6(a), 1/269.9335 of each
share of Preferred Stock shall be fully converted and deemed
cancelled.

    b)           [RESERVED]

    


    c)           [RESERVED]

    


    d)           Mechanics of
Conversion

    


    i.           Delivery of Certificate Upon
Conversion. Within two Trading Days of an Automatic Conversion Date (the
“Share Delivery
Date”), the Corporation shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the
Holder a certificate or certificates representing the Conversion Shares issuable
hereunder, free and clear of all legends. The Corporation shall deliver any
certificate or certificates required to be delivered by the Corporation under
this Section 6 electronically through the Depository Trust Company or another
established clearing corporation performing similar functions.

    


    ii.          [RESERVED]

    


    iii.         Obligation Absolute; Partial
Liquidated Damages.  The Corporation’s obligation to issue and
deliver the Conversion Shares upon conversion of Preferred Stock in accordance
with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action
or inaction by a Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect
to any provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any
action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation
or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by such Holder or any other
Person of any obligation to the Corporation or any violation or alleged
violation of law by such Holder or any other person, and irrespective of any
other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the
Corporation to such Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion
Shares; provided, however, that such
delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Corporation of any such action
that the Corporation may have against such Holder.  The Corporation
may not refuse to issue shares of Common Stock to a Holder hereunder based on
any claim that such Holder or any one associated or affiliated with such Holder
has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason,
unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Holder, restraining and/or
enjoining conversion of all or part of the Preferred Stock of such Holder shall
have been sought and obtained, and the Corporation posts a surety bond for the
benefit of such Holder in the amount of 150% of the then current aggregate
Liquidation Preference of the shares of Preferred Stock which are subject to the
injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of
arbitration/litigation of the underlying dispute and the proceeds of which shall
be payable to such Holder to the extent it obtains judgment.  In the
absence of such injunction, the Corporation shall issue Conversion
Shares.  If the Corporation fails to deliver to a Holder such
certificate or certificates on the second Trading Day after the Share Delivery
Date, the Corporation shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages
and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Liquidation Preference value of
Preferred Stock being converted, $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per
Trading Day on the third after such damages begin to accrue) for each Trading
Day after such third Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date until such
certificates are delivered.  Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s
right to pursue actual damages for the Corporation’s failure to deliver
Conversion Shares within the period specified herein and such Holder shall have
the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity
including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or
injunctive relief.  The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit
a Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or
under applicable law.

    iv.         Compensation for Buy-In on
Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Conversion. In addition to
any other rights available to the Holder, if the Corporation fails for any
reason to deliver to a Holder the applicable certificate or certificates by the
Share Delivery Date, and if after such Share Delivery Date such Holder is
required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or
otherwise), or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common
Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Holder of the Conversion
Shares which such Holder was entitled to receive hereunder (a “Buy-In”), then the
Corporation shall (A) pay in cash to such Holder (in addition to any other
remedies available to or elected by such Holder) the amount, if any, by which
(x) such Holder’s total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for
the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate
number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder was entitled to receive
hereunder multiplied by (2) the actual sale price at which the sell order giving
rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage
commissions) and (B) at the option of such Holder, either reissue (if
surrendered) the shares of Preferred Stock equal to the number of shares of
Preferred Stock submitted for conversion (in which case, such conversion shall
be deemed rescinded) or deliver to such Holder the number of shares of Common
Stock that would have been issued if the Corporation had timely complied with
its delivery requirements hereunder. For example, if a Holder purchases shares
of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with
respect to the shares of Common Stock required to be delivered to Holder on an
Automatic Conversion Date with respect to which the actual sale price of the
Conversion Shares (including any brokerage commissions) giving rise to such
purchase obligation was a total of $10,000 under clause (A) of the immediately
preceding sentence, the Corporation shall be required to pay such Holder $1,000.
The Holder shall provide the Corporation written notice indicating the amounts
payable to such Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the
Corporation, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a
Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or
in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or
injunctive relief with respect to the Corporation’s failure to timely deliver
certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the shares
of Preferred Stock as required pursuant to the terms
hereof.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if
the Company is required to make payment in respect of a Buy-In for the failure
to timely deliver certificates hereunder and, if the Company has previously paid
such Holder liquidated damages under Section 6(d)(iii) in respect of the
certificates resulting in such Buy-In prior to such Buy-In, such amounts paid
under Section 6(d)(iii) shall be deducted from the amount to be paid in respect
of such certificates pursuant to this Section 6(d)(iv)).


    
      
         


      

      
        8

        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    

     

    v.          Reservation of Shares
Issuable Upon Conversion. The Corporation covenants that it will at all
times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of
Common Stock for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of the Preferred
Stock, free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent purchase
rights of Persons other than the Holder (and the other holders of the Preferred
Stock), not less than such aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock as
shall (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement)
be issuable (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 7)
upon the conversion of the then outstanding shares of Preferred
Stock.  The Corporation covenants that all shares of Common Stock that
shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable and, shall be registered for public
resale.

    


    vi.         Fractional Shares. No
fractional shares of Common Stock or scrip representing fractional shares shall
be issued upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock.   As to any
fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase
upon such conversion, the Corporation shall round up to the next whole
share.

    


    vii.        Transfer
Taxes.  The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common
Stock on conversion of this Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to any
Holder for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect
of the issue or delivery of such certificates, provided that the Corporation
shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any
transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon
conversion in a name other than that of the Holders of such shares of Preferred
Stock and the Corporation shall not be required to issue or deliver such
certificates unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance
thereof shall have paid to the Corporation the amount of such tax or shall have
established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been
paid.

Section
7.                 Notice to the
Holders.  If (A) the Corporation shall declare a dividend (or
any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the
Corporation shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a
redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Corporation shall authorize the granting
to all holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or
purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the
approval of any stockholders of the Corporation shall be required in connection
with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to
which the Corporation is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially
all of the assets of the Corporation, or any compulsory share exchange whereby

    d)           Governing
Law.  All questions concerning the construction, validity,
enforcement and interpretation of this Certificate of Designation shall be
governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of
the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws
thereof.  Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the
interpretation, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by any
of the Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its
respective Affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, employees or agents)
shall be commenced in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New
York, Borough of Manhattan (the “New York
Courts”).  Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts for the adjudication of any
dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated
hereby or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of
the Transaction Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to
assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally
subject to the jurisdiction of such New York Courts, or such New York Courts are
improper or inconvenient venue for such proceeding.  Each party hereby
irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being
served in any such suit, action or 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 Certificate

Certificate of Designation, then the prevailing party in such action or
proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its attorneys’ fees and
other costs and expenses incurred in the investigation, preparation and

    e)           Waiver.  Any
waiver by the Corporation or a Holder of a breach of any provision of this
Certificate of Designation shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver
of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of
this Certificate of Designation or a waiver by any other Holders.  The
failure of the Corporation or a Holder to insist upon strict adherence to any
term of this Certificate of Designation on one or more occasions shall not be
considered a waiver or deprive that party (or any other Holder) of the right
thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of
this Certificate of Designation on any other occasion.  Any waiver by
the Corporation or a Holder must be in writing.

    


    f)      Severability.  If
any provision of this Certificate of Designation is invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, the balance of this Certificate of Designation shall remain in
effect, and if any provision is inapplicable to any Person or circumstance, it
shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other Persons and
circumstances.  If it shall be found that any interest or other amount
deemed interest due hereunder violates the applicable law governing usury, the
applicable rate of interest due hereunder shall automatically be lowered to
equal the maximum rate of interest permitted under applicable law.

    


    g)           Next Business
Day.  Whenever any payment or other obligation hereunder shall
be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the
next succeeding Business Day.

    


    h)           Headings.  The
headings contained herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of
this Certificate of Designation and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any
of the provisions hereof.

Redeemed Preferred Stock.  Shares of Preferred Stock may only
be issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.  If any shares of
