and the Subsidiaries and Liens for the payment of federal, state or other taxes, 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. 
  

 12 








 (o) Patents and Trademarks. 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 similar intellectual property rights currently employed by them in
connection with the business currently operated by them that are necessary for use in the conduct of their respective businesses as described in the SEC Reports, except where the failure to so have could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect (collectively, the “Intellectual Property Rights”). Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any written notice that any of the Intellectual Property Rights used by the Company or any Subsidiary violates or
infringes upon the rights of any Person, except for such as could not reasonably be expected to 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 of others. 
 (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. To the best knowledge of the Company, such insurance contracts are accurate and complete. 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. None of the officers or directors of the Company and, to the
knowledge of the Company, none of the employees of the Company 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, 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 or partner, 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 restricted stock programs and stock option agreements under any stock option plan of the Company. 

(r) Sarbanes-Oxley. The Company is in material compliance with all provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as
amended, which are applicable to it as of the date hereof. 
 (s) Certain Fees. No brokerage or
finder’s fees or commissions are or will be payable by the Company 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, other than as specifically set forth in the Prospectus Supplement. The Purchasers shall have no obligation with respect to any fees or with respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type contemplated in
this Section 3.1(s) that may be due in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. 
  

 13 








 (t) Investment Company. The Company is not, and immediately after
receipt of payment for the Securities will not be, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act. 

(u) Registration Rights. No Person has any right to cause the Company to effect the registration pursuant to the
Securities Act of any securities of the Company, which rights will interfere with the transactions contemplated hereunder. 

(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 pursuant to the Exchange Act nor has the Company received any notification
that the Commission is currently contemplating terminating such registration. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, 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. Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, 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 its Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if
any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (other than with respect to that certain Shareholder Rights Agreement dated as of December 28, 2009, between the Company and Computershare
Trust Company, N.A., a federally chartered trust company as Rights Agent) (including any distribution under a rights agreement), or other similar anti-takeover provision pursuant to the Articles 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 pursuant to 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
disclosure furnished by or on behalf of the Company to the Purchasers regarding the Company, its business 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 of this Agreement. 

 

 14 








 (y) No Integrated Offering. Assuming the accuracy of the
Purchasers’ representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 of this Agreement, 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 in a manner that would require shareholder approval pursuant
to the rules of any Trading Market on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated. The issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder does not contravene the rules and regulations of any Trading Market. 

(z) Indebtedness. The SEC Reports set forth as of the dates thereof all outstanding secured and unsecured
Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary, or for which the Company or any Subsidiary has commitments. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default with respect to any Indebtedness disclosed to the Purchasers except for any such default
that could not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (aa) Tax Status.
Except for matters that could not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, the Company and each Subsidiary has filed all necessary federal,
state and foreign income and franchise tax returns and has paid or accrued all taxes shown as due thereon, and the Company has no knowledge of a tax deficiency which has been asserted or threatened against the Company or any Subsidiary. 

(bb) Foreign Corrupt Practices. Neither the Company, nor to the knowledge of the Company, any agent or other person
acting on behalf of the Company, 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 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 the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended. 

(cc) Accountants. Stonefield Josephson, Inc. (i) to the knowledge of the Company, is an independent public
accountant as required by the Exchange Act and is an independent registered public accounting firm within the meaning of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, as required by the rules of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and
(ii) expressed its opinion with respect to the audited financial statements and related schedules included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. 

 

 15 








 (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 Purchasers’ Trading Activity. Anything in this
Agreement or elsewhere herein to the contrary notwithstanding (except for Section 3.2(g) of this Agreement which shall control), it is understood and acknowledged by the Company (i) that none of the Purchasers have been asked 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) that past or future open market or other transactions by any Purchaser, including Short Sales, and specifically including, without limitation, Short Sales or “derivative” transactions, before or after the closing of this or
future transactions, may negatively impact the market price of the Company’s publicly-traded securities; (iii) that 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) that 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 (A) one or more Purchasers may engage in hedging activities at various times during the period that the Securities are outstanding, and (B) such hedging activities (if any)
could reduce the value of the existing shareholders’ 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 cause or to result in the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any 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 to any Person any compensation for soliciting another to purchase
any other securities of the Company, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), compensation paid to the Company’s placement agent in connection with the placement of the Securities. 

 

 16 








 (gg) Shell Company Status. The Company is not, and has never been, an
issuer identified in Rule 144(i)(1) of the Securities Act. 
 (hh) Regulation D Compliance. Neither the
Company, nor any person acting on its behalf and at its direction, (i) has engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act) in connection with the offer and sale of
the Warrants and the Warrant Shares, (ii) has made, directly or indirectly, any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause the offer and sale of the Warrants and the Warrant
Shares to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act in a manner that would require registration of such offer and sale under the Securities Act, or (iii) will take any action or steps referred to in
clause (ii) above that would cause the offer and sale of the Warrants and the Warrants Shares to be integrated with future offerings by the Company in a manner that requires registration of the Warrants and the Warrant Shares under the
Securities Act 
 (ii) Rule 144 Holding Period. In the absence of an order or directive from a
governmental authority to the contrary, the Company will not take a position that the holding period for the Warrants or the Warrant Shares did not commence on the Closing Date. 

3.2 Representations and Warranties of the Purchasers. Each Purchaser, for itself and for no other Purchaser, hereby represents and
warrants as of the execution and delivery of this Agreement on the date first above written in this Agreement to the Company as follows: 

(a) Organization; Authority. Such Purchaser is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization with full right, corporate or partnership power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its
obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution, delivery and performance by such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or similar action 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) No Intent to Take Over. Such Purchaser has no present actual intent to seek to
effect, or to assist others in effecting, a hostile acquisition of the Company. 
  

 17 








 (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 for cash it will be a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A(a) of 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. 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) Purchase for Own Account; No General Solicitation or General Advertising. Such Purchase is acquiring the
Warrants and the Warrant Shares for its own account, in the ordinary course of its business and not with a view toward, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof in a manner that would violate the Securities Act. Such
Purchaser is not acquiring the Warrants or the Warrant Shares as a result of any “general solicitation” or “general advertising,” as such terms are used in Regulation D under the Securities Act, including advertisements,
articles, notices or other communications published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over radio or television, or any seminar or meeting whose attendees have been invited by general solicitation or general advertising.

 (f) Rule 144; Restricted Nature of Warrants and Warrant Shares. Such Purchaser has read and understands
Rule 144 and further understands that until such time as the same are no longer required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares shall be restricted securities
within the meaning of the federal securities laws and the Warrants and any certificates representing the Warrant Shares, and all certificates or other instruments issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof, shall bear a customary
restrictive legend, and that the Company will make a notation on its records and give instructions to its transfer agent in order to implement the restrictions on transfer set forth and described therein. 

(g) Short Sales and Confidentiality Prior to the Date Hereof. Other than consummating the transactions contemplated
hereunder, such Purchaser has not directly or indirectly, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with such Purchaser, 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 learned of the specific purchase and sale transaction being effected pursuant to this Agreement and ending immediately prior to the execution and delivery 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 and to its counsel, such Purchaser has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with the transaction
expressly contemplated by this Agreement (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. 
  


 18 








 (h) No Government 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 purchased hereunder. 

ARTICLE IV. 

OTHER AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES 

4.1 Warrant Shares. Subject to the Shareholder Approval, 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 on which the Shareholder Approval has been obtained, a registration statement registering 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 no such registration statement is then effective and thereafter shall promptly notify such holders when a registration statement is effective and available for the sale or resale of the
Warrant Shares. 
 4.2 Furnishing of Information. Until the earlier of the time that (i) no Purchaser owns Preferred
Stock or Underlying Shares or (ii) the Warrants have expired, the Company covenants 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, and the Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports pursuant to the Exchange Act
even if the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would no longer require or otherwise permit such termination other than in connection with a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Warrants) in which the Company is not the
surviving entity or in which all of the capital stock of the Company is acquired by an unaffiliated and unrelated Person. As long as any Purchaser owns Securities, if the Company is not required to file reports pursuant to the Exchange Act other
than in connection with a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the surviving entity or in which all of the capital stock of the Company is acquired by an unaffiliated and unrelated Person, it will prepare and furnish to the Purchasers
and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c)(1) of the Securities Act such information as is required for the Purchasers to sell the Securities under Rule 144 of the Securities Act. The Company further covenants that it will take such
further action as any holder of Securities may reasonably request, to the extent required from time to time to enable such Person to sell such Securities without registration pursuant to the Securities Act within the requirements of the exemption
provided by Rule 144 of the Securities Act. The Company represents and warrants that it is in material compliance with all of the requirements (including, without limitation, the reporting, submission and posting requirements) of Rule 144(c)(1) of
the Securities Act and Rule 405 of Regulation S-T, each as in effect and amended as of the date hereof. 
  

 19 








 4.3 Integration. After this transaction, 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 such that the rules of the Trading Market would require
shareholder approval of this transaction 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) issue a press release disclosing the material terms of the
transactions contemplated hereby simultaneously with the execution and delivery hereof, and (b) by 8:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the fourth (4th) Trading Day following the date hereof, file a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing the
material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and including the Transaction Documents as exhibits thereto. The Company and each Purchaser shall consult with each other in issuing any other press releases with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby, and, except as may be required by law, neither the Company nor any Purchaser shall issue any such press release or 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 any Trading Market, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser, except (i) as required by federal securities law in connection with the filing of final Transaction
Documents (including signature pages thereto) with the Commission and (ii) to the extent such disclosure is required by law or any Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the Purchasers with prior notice of such
disclosure permitted under this subclause (ii). 
 4.5 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 executed a written agreement 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. 
  

 20 








 4.6 Use of Proceeds. The use of proceeds shall be as described in the Prospectus
Supplement. 
 4.7 Indemnification of Purchasers. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.7, 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 a Purchaser, or any of them or their respective Affiliates, by any shareholder of the Company who is not an Affiliate of such Purchaser, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (unless such action is
based upon a material breach of such Purchaser’s representations, warranties or covenants of the Transaction Documents or any agreements or understandings such Purchaser may have with any such shareholder or any material violations by the
Purchaser of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by such Purchaser 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 such separate 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 (i) for any settlement by a Purchaser Party effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed or (ii) 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. 
  

 21 








 4.8 Reservation and Registration 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 all of the Underlying Shares. In
addition, to the extent that shares of Common Stock representing the Warrant Shares are not available or authorized for issuance upon the exercise of the Warrants on the date when the Warrants are first exercisable, the Company shall reserve for
issuance upon the exercise in full of the Warrants any and all shares of Common Stock currently reserved for issuance upon conversion, exchange or exercise of currently outstanding securities to the extent such securities are no longer convertible,
exchangeable or exercisable for such shares of Common Stock; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation shall not require the Company to eliminate any reserve for its equity incentive plans regardless of whether the shares of
Common Stock issuable pursuant to such equity incentive plans have been granted or otherwise allocated. Such shares of Common Stock shall be reserved pro rata among the holders of the Warrants; provided, however, that the obligations
in this Section 4.8 shall terminate upon receipt of the Shareholder Approval; provided, further, that the Company shall not be required to eliminate any reserve that it currently maintains except to the extent set forth
above. The Company shall provide the holders of the Warrants with written notice of any Warrant Shares that become reserved for issuance upon exercise of the Warrants after the date hereof pursuant to the preceding sentence. The Company shall use
its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Shareholder Approval at a special meeting of shareholders on June 4, 2010 (the “Special Meeting”); provided, however, that no adjournment of the Special Meeting shall
constitute a failure on the part of the Company to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Shareholder Approval; provided, further, however, that the foregoing requirement shall terminate upon a Change of Control
Transaction (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) if the Company or the successor in such Change of Control Transaction has a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for the exercise in full of the Warrants. In
the event the Company does not obtain the Shareholder Approval at the Special Meeting or any adjournment thereof, the Company further agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Shareholder Approval at subsequent special meetings of
shareholders to be called every four months until the Shareholder Approval is obtained. For the avoidance of doubt, upon receipt of the Shareholder Approval, a portion of the additional authorized shares of Common Stock shall first be reserved for
issuance upon exercise of the Warrants to the extent necessary so that 100% of the Warrant Shares are reserved for issuance. Also for the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not be required to reserve for issuance upon exercise of the Warrants
more shares of Common Stock than the number of Warrant Shares then required. 
 4.9 Listing of Common Stock. The Company
hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of the Common Stock on a Trading Market, and the Company shall list all of the Underlying Shares on each of The NASDAQ Capital Market and the Borsa Italiana S.p.A. (MTA
International) no later than the Closing Date. The Company further agrees that if the Company applies to have the Common Stock traded on any other Trading Market, it will include in such application all of the Underlying Shares and will take such
other action as is necessary to cause all of the Underlying Shares to be listed on such other Trading Market as promptly as possible. The Company will take all action reasonably necessary to continue the listing and trading of its Common Stock on a
Trading Market, other than in connection with a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Warrants) in which the Company is not the surviving entity or in which all of the capital stock of the Company is acquired by an unaffiliated and unrelated
Person, and will comply in all respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of such Trading Market. 
  

 22 








 4.10 Equal Treatment of Purchasers. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any
Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement unless the same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to this Agreement. 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 the Securities or otherwise. 
 4.11 Certain Transactions and
Confidentiality After The Date Hereof. 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 to be issued simultaneously with the
execution and delivery hereof as described in Section 4.4 of this Agreement, (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 such initial press release as described in Section 4.4 of this Agreement and (iii) no Purchaser
shall have any duty of confidentiality to the Company or its Subsidiaries after the issuance of such press initial release as described in Section 4.4 of this Agreement. 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. 
 4.12 Restriction on Exchanges. Until June 5, 2010, the Company shall not exchange any outstanding debt
of the Company for shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents other than pursuant the Exchange Agreements. 
 4.13
Additional Issuance of Securities. The Company agrees that for the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the thirtieth (30th) day after the date hereof, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, without the
prior consent of the Purchasers, (i) directly or indirectly, issue, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or
otherwise transfer or dispose of any share of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock or file any registration statement under the Act (other than a Registration Statement on Form S-8) with
respect to any of the foregoing, or (ii) enter into any swap or any other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of ownership of the Common Stock, whether any such swap

securities after the date hereof and prior to the expiration of the Restricted Period. In addition, the provisions of this Section 4.13 shall not apply to issuances of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exchange of currently
outstanding convertible notes.

 4.14 Registration Statement. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
keep the Registration Statement effective at all times until no Purchaser owns any Preferred Stock or Underlying Shares. The Company shall ensure that the Registration Statement (including any amendments or supplements thereto and prospectuses
contained therein) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances
in which they were made) not misleading. After the date hereof and during any period in which a Prospectus or Prospectus Supplement relating to any of the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares is required to be delivered by any Purchaser
pursuant to the Securities Act (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 of the Securities Act), (i) the Company will notify the Purchasers promptly of the time when any subsequent amendment to the
Registration Statement, other than documents incorporated by reference, has been filed with the Commission and/or has become effective or any subsequent supplement to the Prospectus that relates to the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares or
any of the Purchasers or any subsequent amendment to the Prospectus or any supplement or amendment to the Prospectus Supplement has been filed with the Commission and of any comment letter from the Commission or any request by the Commission for any
amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, any amendment to the Prospectus, any supplement to the Prospectus that relates the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares or any of the Purchasers or any amendment or supplement to the
Prospectus Supplement or for additional information, (ii) the Company will prepare and file with the Commission, promptly upon a Purchaser’s request, any amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement, Prospectus or Prospectus
Supplement that, in such Purchaser’s reasonable opinion, may be necessary or advisable in connection with any distribution (if any) of the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares by such Purchaser (provided, however, that the failure of such
Purchaser to make such request shall not relieve the Company of any obligation or liability hereunder, or affect such Purchaser’s right to rely on the representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement), (iii) the Company
will not file any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, Prospectus or Prospectus Supplement, other than documents incorporated by reference, relating to the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares unless a copy thereof has been
submitted to each Purchaser within a reasonable period of time before the filing and no Purchaser has reasonably objected in writing thereto (provided, however, that (A) the failure of any Purchaser to make such objection shall not relieve the
Company of any obligation or liability hereunder, or affect any Purchaser’s right to rely on the representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement, and (B) the Company has no obligation to provide a Purchaser any advance
copy of such filing or to provide such Purchaser an opportunity to object to such filing if such filing does not name such Purchaser or specifically discuss the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares as contemplated hereby) and the Company will
furnish to each Purchaser at the time of filing thereof a copy of any document that upon filing is deemed to be incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement, Prospectus or Prospectus Supplement, except for those documents available via
EDGAR, and (iv) the Company will cause each amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement, other than documents incorporated by reference, to be filed with the Commission as required pursuant to the applicable paragraph
of Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act (without reliance on Rule 424(b)(8) of the Securities Act). 
  

 24 








 4.15 Notice of Commission Stop Orders. Promptly after it receives notice or obtains
knowledge thereof, the Company will advise each Purchaser of the issuance or threatened issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any other order preventing or suspending the use of
the Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement, of the suspension of the qualification of the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for any such purpose
or any examination pursuant to Section 8(e) of the Securities Act, or if the Company becomes the subject of a proceeding under Section 8A of the Securities Act in connection with the offering of the Preferred Stock and the Underlying
Shares; and it will promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop or other order or to obtain its withdrawal if such a stop or other order should be issued. 

4.16 Delivery of Prospectus: Subsequent Changes. During any period in which a Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement relating to
the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares is required to be delivered by any Purchaser pursuant to the Securities Act with respect to a pending sale of the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares (including in circumstances where such
requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 of the Securities Act), the Company will comply in all material respects with the requirements imposed upon it by the Securities Act, as from time to time in force, and shall use commercially
reasonable best efforts to file on or before their respective due dates all reports and any definitive proxy or information statements required to be filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14, 15(d) or any other
provision of the Exchange Act. If during such period any event occurs as a result of which the Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement as then amended or supplemented would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then existing, not misleading, or if during such period it is necessary to amend or supplement the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement
to comply with the Securities Act, the Company will promptly notify the Purchasers to suspend the offering of the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares during such period and the Company will promptly amend or supplement, or file a free writing
prospectus applicable to, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement (at the expense of the Company) so as to correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance. 

 

 25 








 4.17 Delivery of Registration Statement and Prospectus. The Company will furnish to
each Purchaser and its counsel (at the expense of the Company) copies of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement (including all documents incorporated by reference therein) and all amendments and supplements to the
Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the Prospectus Supplement that are filed with the Commission during any period in which a Prospectus or Prospectus Supplement relating to the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares is required to be
delivered pursuant to the Securities Act (including all documents filed with the Commission during such period that are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein), in each case as soon as reasonably practicable and in such quantities as such
Purchaser may from time to time reasonably request and, at such Purchaser’s request, will also furnish copies of the Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement to each exchange or market on which sales of the Preferred Stock and the Underlying
Shares may be made; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to furnish any document to a Purchaser to the extent such document is available to such Purchaser or the public on EDGAR. 

4.18 Federal and State Securities Law Compliance. The Company represents and warrants that it has taken prior to the execution and
delivery of this Agreement all such action as is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to, qualify the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares for sale to, and by, the Purchasers under all applicable securities laws (including, without
limitation, all federal securities laws and “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification)), and the Company shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Purchasers
simultaneously with the Closing. The Company shall make all filings and reports relating to the offer and sale of the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares required under all applicable securities laws (including, without limitation, all federal
securities laws and “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States) following the Closing, and the Company shall comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws, statutes, rules, regulations and the like relating to the
offering and sale of the Preferred Stock and the Underlying Shares to, and by, the Purchasers. 
 ARTICLE V. 

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 by the Closing Date 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 the other party (or parties). 

5.2 Fees and Expenses. Except as expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents to the contrary, each party shall pay the fees
and expenses of its advisers, counsel, accountants and other experts, if any, and all other expenses incurred by such party incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement. The Company shall pay all
transfer agent fees, stamp taxes and other taxes and duties levied in connection with the delivery of any Securities to the Purchasers. 
  

 26 








 5.3 Entire Agreement. The Transaction Documents, together with the exhibits and
schedules thereto, contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such subject matter, which the parties acknowledge
have been merged into such documents, exhibits and schedules; provided that the foregoing shall not have any effect on any agreements that a Purchaser has entered into with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof with
respect to any prior investment made by such Purchaser in the Company. 
 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 effective on the earliest of (a) the date of transmission, if such notice or communication is
delivered via facsimile at the facsimile number set forth on the signature pages attached hereto prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on a Trading Day, (b) the next Trading Day after the date of transmission, if such notice or

 5.5 Amendments; Waivers. No provision of this Agreement may be waived or amended except in a written
instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Company and the holders of at least 67% of the Preferred Stock 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 such Purchaser provides prior written notice to the Company and 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.” 
 5.8 No Third-Party Beneficiaries.
This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except as otherwise set forth in
Section 4.7 of this Agreement. 
  

 27 








 5.9 Governing 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 interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, directors,
officers, shareholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting
in the City of New York, borough of Manhattan 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 any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is improper or
is an 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 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 or proceeding to enforce any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then the prevailing party in
such action 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, warranties and covenants contained herein shall survive the Closing and the delivery of the
Preferred Stock and Warrants and 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 the other party, it being understood that both
parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a “.pdf” format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party
executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile 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. 

 

 28 








 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. 
 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 pursuant to 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 agrees 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 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 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 their review and negotiation of the Transaction Documents. 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. 

 

 29 








 5.17 Liquidated Damages. The Company’s obligations to pay any partial liquidated
damages or other amounts owing pursuant to 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. 

5.18 Construction. The parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel has 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 hereto. 
 5.19 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.
