1. Section 4.12 of the Purchase Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:


 


"The Shares.  Notwithstanding, anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the Company may not make a Draw Down to the extent that such Draw Down exceeds 4.99% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock, and (ii) at no time will the Company request a Draw Down which would result in the issuance of an aggregate number of shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement which exceeds 19.9% of the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date hereof without first obtaining stockholder approval of such excess issuance, or such other amount as would require stockholder approval under rules of the principal Trading Market or otherwise without first obtaining stockholder approval, if any, of such excess issuance."


 


2. Subsection 6.1(c) of the Purchase Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:


 


"The quantity of Draw Down Shares as to each Draw Down shall be limited to the lesser of: (i) 4.99% of the then-current shares outstanding or (ii) the previous 10-day average trading volume of the Draw Down Shares multiplied by 3.  There shall be a minimum Draw Down Investment Amount (the "Investment Amount") of $25,000 and a maximum Draw Down Investment Amount of $1,000,000. For avoidance of doubt, the calculation provided for herein shall be done at the beginning of the Draw Down Pricing Period."
