    ARTICLE

    PURCHASE

    Section

Preferred Stock.

     

    (a) Upon the
following terms and conditions, the Company shall issue and sell to the
Purchasers, and the Purchasers shall purchase from the Company, shares of Series

collectively the “Preferred Shares”) at
a price per share of $10,000.00 (the “Per Share Purchase
Price”) for an aggregate purchase price of up to Ten Million Dollars
($10,000,000) (the “Purchase
Price”).  Each Purchaser shall pay the portion of the Purchase

be amended or supplemented from time to time.  The designation,
rights, preferences and other terms and provisions of the Series
A  Preferred Stock are set forth in the Certificate of Designation of
the Relative Rights and Preferences of the Series A Preferred Stock attached
hereto as Exhibit

reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Section
4(2) of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”),
including Regulation D (“Regulation D”),
and/or upon such other exemption from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act as may be available with respect to any or all of the investments
to be made hereunder.

     

    (b) Upon the

Series E-1 Shares, 28,500  shares of the Company’s common stock shall
be issued to the Purchasers in the Initial Closing (as defined in Section 1.2)
(the “Common
Shares”) for each Preferred Share purchased.  The Preferred
Shares and the Series E-1 Shares and/or Common Shares are sometimes collectively

the conditions set forth in Article IV hereof and applicable to such Closing
shall have been fulfilled or waived in accordance herewith.  At each
Closing and upon receipt by the Company of the appropriate
purchase price from each Purchaser (i.e., a purchase price equal to the number
of Preferred Shares to be purchased by such Purchaser multiplied by the Per
Share Purchase Price), the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered
to each such Purchaser (x) a certificate
for the number of Preferred Shares set forth opposite the name of such Purchaser
on Exhibit A ,
(y) a certificate for the number of Series E-1 Shares set forth opposite the
name of such Purchaser on Exhibit A and/or a

any jurisdiction(s) (alone or in the aggregate) in which the failure to be so
qualified will not have a Material Adverse Effect.  For the purposes
of this Agreement, “Material Adverse
Effect” means any effect on the business, results of operations, assets
or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company that is material and
adverse to the Company and its Subsidiaries (as hereafter defined) taken as a
whole, and/or any condition, circumstance, or situation that would prohibit or
otherwise materially interfere with the ability of the Company from entering
into and performing any of its obligations under the Transaction Documents (as
defined below) in any material respect; provided, however, that Material Adverse Effect shall not be deemed to
include: (i) changes in applicable law or (ii) any effect resulting from the
public announcement of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.

    


    (b) Authorization;
Enforcement.  The Company has the requisite corporate power and
authority to enter into and perform this Agreement, by and among the Company,
and the Purchasers (together with any additional documents required to be
executed in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, the
“Transaction
Documents”), and to issue and sell the Securities in accordance with the
terms hereof and to complete the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents.  The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction
Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions
contemplated thereby have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary
corporate action, and, except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(b), no
further consent or authorization of the Company, its Board of Directors or
stockholders is required.  When executed and delivered by the Company,
each of the Transaction Documents shall constitute a valid and binding
obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its
terms, except as rights to indemnity and contribution may be limited by federal
or state securities laws and except as such enforceability may be limited by
applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship,
receivership or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement
of, creditors’ rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general
application.

Preferred Stock, there are no options, warrants or other outstanding securities
of the Company (including, without limitation, any equity securities issued

provision of the Company's Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”) or Bylaws
(the “Bylaws”),
each as amended to date, or any Subsidiary's comparable charter documents, (ii)
conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse
of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of
termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement,
mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement,
instrument or obligation to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a
party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries' respective properties
or assets are bound, or (iii) result in a violation of any federal, state or
local statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal
and state securities laws and regulations) applicable to the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries is bound or affected, except, in all cases, other than violations
pursuant to clauses (i) or (iii) (with respect to federal and state securities
laws) above, for such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments,
acceleration, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the
aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.  Neither the Company nor
any of its Subsidiaries is required under federal, state, foreign or local law,
rule or regulation to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any
filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency in order for it to
execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under the Transaction
Documents or issue and sell the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof

Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 (the “Form 10-K”) complied
in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules
and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, and, to the Knowledge
of the Company, the Form 10-Q and Form 10-K at the time of their respective
filings did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading.  As of their respective dates, the financial
statements of the Company included in the Commission Documents complied as to
form and substance in all material respects with applicable accounting
requirements and the published rules and regulations of the Commission or other
applicable rules and regulations with respect thereto.  Such financial
statements, together with the related notes and schedules thereto, have been

periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise indicated in such financial
statements or the Notes thereto or (ii) in the case of unaudited interim

summary statements), and fairly present in all material respects the financial
position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the
results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the
case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit
adjustments).

    (g) Subsidiaries.  The
Commission Documents or Schedule
2.1(g)  sets forth each Subsidiary of the Company, showing the
jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization and showing the percentage of
each person's ownership of the outstanding stock or other interests of such
Subsidiary.  For the purposes of this Agreement, “Subsidiary” shall

securities or other ownership interest having ordinary voting power (absolutely
or contingently) for the election of directors or other persons performing
similar functions are at the time owned directly or indirectly by the Company
and/or any of its other Subsidiaries.  All of the outstanding shares of
capital stock of each Subsidiary have been duly authorized and validly issued,
and are fully paid and nonassessable.  Except as set forth in the Commission Documents,
there is no
outstanding preemptive, conversion or other rights, options, warrants or
agreements granted or issued by or binding upon any Subsidiary for the purchase
or acquisition of any shares of capital stock of any Subsidiary or any other
securities convertible into, exchangeable for or evidencing the rights to
subscribe for any shares of such capital stock.  Neither the Company
nor any Subsidiary is subject to any obligation (contingent or otherwise) to
repurchase or otherwise acquire or retire any shares of the capital stock of any
Subsidiary or any convertible securities, rights, warrants or options of the
type described in the preceding sentence except as set forth on Schedule
2.1(g)  or in the Commission Documents.  Except as
set forth in the Commission Documents, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is

restricting the voting or transfer of any shares of the capital stock of any
Subsidiary.

(whether liquidated or unliquidated, secured or unsecured, absolute, accrued,
contingent or otherwise) that would be required to
be disclosed on a balance sheet of the Company or any Subsidiary (including the
notes thereto) in conformity with GAAP and are not disclosed in the Commission
Documents, other than those incurred in the ordinary course of the
Company's or its Subsidiaries respective businesses or which, individually or in
the aggregate, are not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse
Effect.  Since September 30, 2008, except as disclosed in Commission
Documents or on Schedule
2.1(i) , none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has
participated in any transaction material to the condition of the Company which

event or circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to the Company or its
Subsidiaries or their respective businesses, properties, operations or financial
condition, which, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public
disclosure or announcement by the Company but which has not been so publicly
announced or disclosed and which, individually or in the aggregate, would have a
Material Adverse Effect.

     

    (k) Indebtedness.  The
Commission Documents or Schedule
2.1(k)  sets forth as of the date hereof all outstanding
secured and unsecured Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary, or for
which the Company or any Subsidiary has commitments.  For the purposes

instruments for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary
course of business; and (c) the present value of any lease payments in excess of
$25,000 due under leases required to be capitalized in accordance with

its Subsidiaries are valid and subsisting and in full force and effect in all material respects.  “Permitted Liens” means (i) statutory liens for taxes, assessments and

pursuant hereto or thereto.  Except as set forth in the Commission
Documents or on Schedule 2.1(m),
there is no action, suit, claim, investigation, arbitration, alternate dispute
resolution proceeding or other proceeding pending or, to the Knowledge of the Company, threatened against or
involving the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties or
assets, which individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.  Except

orders, judgments, injunctions, awards or decrees of any court, arbitrator or
governmental or regulatory body against the Company or any Subsidiary or any
officers or directors of the Company or any Subsidiary in their capacities as
such, which individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.

     

    (n) Compliance with
Law.  The business of the Company and the Subsidiaries has been
and is presently being conducted in accordance with all applicable federal,
state and local governmental laws, rules, regulations and ordinances, except as
set forth in the Commission Documents or on Schedule
2.1(n)  or such that, individually or in the aggregate, the
noncompliance therewith would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.  The Company and each of its Subsidiaries have all
franchises, permits, licenses, consents and other governmental or regulatory
authorizations and approvals necessary for the conduct of its business as now
being conducted by it unless the failure to possess such franchises, permits,
licenses, consents and other governmental or regulatory authorizations and
approvals, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.

of the federal income tax returns of the Company or any Subsidiary has been
audited by the Internal Revenue Service.  The Company has no Knowledge
of any additional assessments, adjustments or contingent tax liability (whether

against the Company or any Subsidiary for any period, nor of any basis for any
such assessment, adjustment or contingency.

     

    (p) Certain
Fees.  Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(p), the
Company has not employed any broker or finder or incurred any liability for any

works thereof, websites and intellectual property rights relating thereto,
service marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and authorizations which are
necessary for the conduct of its business as now conducted, which the failure to

Company nor any Subsidiary has received written notice that the intellectual
property rights used by the Company or any Subsidiary and necessary for their
respective business, violates or infringes upon the rights of any third

    (s) Environmental
Compliance.  Except as disclosed in the Commission Documents or
on Schedule
2.1(s) , the Company and each of its Subsidiaries have obtained all
material approvals, authorization, certificates, consents, licenses, orders and
permits or other similar authorizations of all governmental authorities, or from
any other person, that are required under any Environmental Laws, except where failure to obtain such material
approvals, authorization, certificates, consents, licenses, orders and permits
or other similar authorizations would not individually or in the aggregate have
a Material Adverse Effect.  “Environmental Laws”
shall mean all applicable laws relating to the protection of the environment
including, without limitation, all requirements pertaining to reporting,
licensing, permitting, controlling, investigating or remediating emissions,
discharges, releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances, chemical
substances, pollutants, contaminants or toxic substances, materials or wastes,
whether solid, liquid or gaseous in nature, into the air, surface water,
groundwater or land, or relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution,
use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of hazardous
substances, chemical substances, pollutants, contaminants or toxic substances,
material or wastes, whether solid, liquid or gaseous in
nature.  Except as set forth in the
Commission Documents or on Schedule 2.1(s), the
Company has all necessary governmental approvals required under all
Environmental Laws and used in its business or in the business of any of its
Subsidiaries, except for such instances as would not individually or in the
aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect.  Except as disclosed in the
Commission Documents, the Company and each of its
Subsidiaries are also in compliance with all other limitations, restrictions,
conditions, standards, requirements, schedules and timetables required or
imposed under all Environmental Laws, except where
failure to be in compliance would not individually
or in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect.   Except as
disclosed in the Commission Documents or for such instances as would not
individually or in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect, there are no
past or present events, conditions, circumstances, incidents, actions or
omissions relating to or in any way affecting the Company or its Subsidiaries
that violate or would be reasonably likely to violate any Environmental Law
after the Closing or that would be reasonably likely to give rise to any
environmental liability, or otherwise form the basis of any claim, action,
demand, suit, proceeding, hearing, study or investigation (i) under any
Environmental Law or (ii) based on or related to the manufacture, processing,
distribution, use, treatment, storage (including, without limitation,
underground storage tanks), disposal, transport or handling, or the emission,
discharge, release or threatened release of any hazardous
substance.

     

    (t) Books and Records; Internal
Accounting Controls.  The records and documents of the Company
and its Subsidiaries accurately reflect in all material respects the information
relating to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, the location and
collection of their assets, and the nature of all transactions giving rise to
the obligations or accounts receivable of the Company or any
Subsidiary.  The Company and each of its Subsidiaries maintain a
system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable
assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management's
general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary
to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to
maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in
accordance with management's general or specific authorization, (iv) the
recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at
reasonable intervals and appropriate actions are taken with respect to any
differences and (v) accounts, notes and other receivables and inventory are
recorded accurately, and proper and adequate procedures are implemented to
effect the collection thereof on a current and timely basis.  Except
as set forth on Schedule
2.1(t)  or in the Commission Documents, there are no
significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the design or operation of
internal controls over financial reporting that would reasonably be expected to
materially and adversely affect the Company’s ability to record, process,
summarize and report financial information, and there is no fraud, whether or
not material, that involves management or, to the Knowledge of the Company,
other employees who have a significant role in the Company’s internal controls
and the Company has provided to the Purchaser copies of any written materials
relating to the foregoing.

or in such proxy statement.

representations and warranties of the Purchasers contained in the Transaction
Documents, the Company has complied and will comply with all applicable federal

governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality,

execution or delivery of the Securities, or for the performance by the Company
of its obligations under the Transaction Documents except for such
authorizations, consents, approvals, licenses, exemptions, filings or
registrations the Company’s failure of which to obtain would not, individually
or in the aggregate, constitute a Material Adverse Effect.

the Company nor any Subsidiary has any collective bargaining arrangements or

    (bb) Public Utility Holding
Company Act and Investment Company Act Status.  The Company is
not a “holding company” or a “public utility company” as such terms are defined
in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.  The
Company is not, and as a result of and immediately upon the Closing will not be,
an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,”
within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended.

     

    (cc) ERISA.  Except
as set forth in the Commission Documents, no liability to the Pension Benefit
Guaranty Corporation has been incurred with respect to any Plan by the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries which is or would be materially adverse to the
Company and its Subsidiaries.  The execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the issuance and sale of the Securities will not involve any
transaction which is subject to the prohibitions of Section 406 of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) or in
connection with which a tax could be imposed pursuant to Section 4975 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, provided that, if any of the
Purchasers, or any person or entity that owns a beneficial interest in any of
the Purchasers, is an “employee pension benefit plan” (within the meaning of
Section 3(2) of ERISA) with respect to which the Company is a “party in
interest” (within the meaning of Section 3(14) of ERISA), the requirements of
Sections 407(d)(5) and 408(e) of ERISA, if applicable, are met.  As
used in this Section 2.1(cc), the term “Plan” shall mean an “employee pension
benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3 of ERISA) which is or has been
established or maintained, or to which contributions are or have been made, by
the Company or any Subsidiary or by any trade or business, whether or not
incorporated, which, together with the Company or any Subsidiary, is under
common control, as described in Section 414(b) or (c) of the Code.

     

    (dd) Independent Nature of
Purchasers.  The Company acknowledges that the obligations of
each Purchaser under the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with
the obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in
any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under the
Transaction Documents and the Company shall not be excused from performance of
its obligations to any Purchaser under the Transaction Documents as a result of
nonperformance or breach by any other Purchaser.  The Company
acknowledges that the decision of each Purchaser to purchase Securities pursuant
to this Agreement has been made by such Purchaser independently of any other
purchaser and independently of any information, materials, statements or
opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties,
liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or
prospects of the Company or of its Subsidiaries which may have made or given by
any other Purchaser or by any agent or employee of any other
Purchaser.  The Company acknowledges that nothing contained herein, or
in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant
hereto or 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.  The Company acknowledges that 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.

    (ee) Anti-takeover
Device.  Neither the Company nor
any of its Subsidiaries has any outstanding shareholder rights plan or “poison
pill” or any similar arrangement.  There are no provisions of any anti-takeover
or business combination statute applicable
to the Company, the Articles and the Bylaws which would preclude the issuance and sale of the Securities,
and the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
any of the other Transaction Documents.

     

    (ff) No Integrated
Offering.  Assuming the accuracy of the Purchasers’
representations and warranties herein, 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 the offering of the
Securities pursuant to this Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by
the Company for purposes of the Securities Act which would prevent the Company
from selling the Securities pursuant to Regulation D and Rule 506 thereof under
the Securities Act, or any applicable exchange-related stockholder approval
provisions, nor will the Company or any of its affiliates or Subsidiaries take
any action or steps that would cause the offering of the Securities to be
integrated with other offerings if such other offering, if integrated, would
cause the offer and sale of the Securities not to be exempt from registration
pursuant to Regulation D and Rule 506 thereof under the Securities
Act.  Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(ff) ,
the Company does not have any registration statement pending before the
Commission or currently under the Commission’s review and since December 1,
2007, the Company has not offered or sold any of its equity securities or debt
securities convertible into shares of Common Stock.

     

    (gg) Sarbanes-Oxley
Act.  The Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”),
and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, that are effective and for
which compliance by the Company is required as of the date hereof.

     

    (hh) DTC
Status.  The Company’s current transfer agent is a participant
in and the Common Stock is eligible for transfer pursuant to the Depository
Trust Company Automated Securities Transfer Program.  The name,
address, telephone number, fax number, contact person and email address of the
Company’s transfer agent is set forth on Schedule
2.1(hh).

     

    (ii) Insurance.  The
Company and its 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 (not including directors and officers insurance
coverage).  Such insurance contracts and policies are accurate and
complete in all material respects.  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.

     

    Section
2.2 Representations and
Warranties of the Purchasers.  Each of the Purchasers hereby
represents and warrants to the Company with respect solely to itself and not
with respect to any other Purchaser as follows as of the date hereof, except as
set forth on the Schedule of Exceptions attached hereto with each numbered
schedule corresponding to the section number herein:

     

    (a) Organization and Standing of
the Purchasers.  If the Purchaser is an entity, such Purchaser
is a corporation, limited liability company or partnership duly incorporated or
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization.

    
      
         


      

      
        -12-

        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    

    


    (b) Authorization and
Power.  Such Purchaser has the requisite power and authority to
enter into and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents and to
purchase the Securities being sold to it hereunder.  The execution,
delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by such Purchaser and the
consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership or other action, and no
further consent or authorization of such Purchaser or its Board of Directors,
stockholders, partners or members, as the case may be, is
required.  When executed and delivered by the Purchasers, the
Transaction Documents shall constitute valid and binding obligations of such
Purchaser enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with their terms,
except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship,
receivership or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement
of, creditor's rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general
application.

     

    (c) No
Conflict.  The execution, delivery and performance of the
Transaction Documents by such Purchaser and the consummation by such Purchaser
of the transactions contemplated thereby and hereby do not and will not (i)
violate any provision of such Purchaser’s charter or organizational documents,
(ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or
lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any
rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any
agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease
agreement, instrument or obligation to which such Purchaser is a party or by
which such Purchaser’s respective properties or assets are bound, or (iii)
result in a violation of any federal, state, local or foreign statute, rule,
regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities
laws and regulations) applicable to such Purchaser or by which any property or
asset of such Purchaser are bound or affected, except, in all cases, other than
violations pursuant to clauses (i) or (iii) (with respect to federal and state
securities laws) above, for such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments,
accelerations, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the
aggregate, materially and adversely affect such Purchaser’s ability to perform
its obligations under the Transaction Documents.

     

    (d) Acquisition for
Investment.  Such Purchaser is purchasing
the Securities solely for its own
account for the purpose of investment and not with a view to or for sale in
connection with distribution.  Such Purchaser does not have
a present intention to sell any of the Securities, nor a present arrangement (whether or
not legally binding) or intention to effect any distribution of any of the Securities to or through any person
or entity; provided, however, that by
making the representations herein, such Purchaser does not agree to hold any of the Securities for any minimum or other
specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Securities at any time in
accordance with the terms and provisions of the
Transaction Documents and Federal and state securities laws applicable to
such disposition.  Such Purchaser acknowledges that (i) it has such knowledge and experience in financial
and business matters such that Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of Purchaser's investment in the Company, (ii) it is able to bear the financial risks associated
with an investment in the Securities, (iii) it
has been given full access to such records of the Company and the
Subsidiaries and to the officers of the Company and the Subsidiaries as it has
deemed necessary or appropriate to conduct its due diligence investigation, (iv) it has reviewed or received copies of the
Commission Documents, (v) it and has sought such accounting, legal and tax
advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision
with respect to its acquisition of the Securities, (vi) except for this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, neither the Company nor its
employees have disclosed to such Purchaser any material non-public information
that, according to applicable law, rule or regulation, should have been
disclosed publicly by the Company prior to the date hereof but which has not
been so disclosed, and (vii) it (and not the Company) shall be responsible for
its own tax liabilities that may arise as a result of this investment or the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  Purchaser has the
financial capability to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement,
including the financial capability to purchase the Securities.

    
      
         


      

      
        -13-

        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    

    


    (e) Rule
144.  Such Purchaser understands that the Securities must be
held indefinitely unless such Securities are registered under the Securities Act
or an exemption from registration is available.  Such Purchaser
acknowledges that such person is familiar with Rule 144 of the rules and
regulations of the Commission, as amended, promulgated pursuant to the
Securities Act (“Rule
144”), and that such Purchaser has been advised that Rule 144 permits
resales only under certain circumstances.  Such Purchaser understands
that to the extent that Rule 144 is not available, such Purchaser will be unable
to sell any Securities without either registration under the Securities Act or
the existence of another exemption from such registration
requirement.

     

    (f) General.  Such
Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered and sold in reliance
on a transactional exemption from the registration requirements of federal and
state securities laws and the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of
the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings
of such Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of
such exemptions and the suitability of such Purchaser to acquire the
Securities.  Such Purchaser understands that no United States federal
or state agency or any government or governmental agency has passed upon or made
any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities.

     

    (g) No General
Solicitation.  Such Purchaser acknowledges that the Securities
were not offered to such Purchaser by means of any form of general or public
solicitation or general advertising, or publicly disseminated advertisements or
sales literature, including (i) any advertisement, article, notice or other
communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media, or
broadcast over television or radio, or (ii) any seminar or meeting to which such
Purchaser was invited by any of the foregoing means of
communications.  Such Purchaser, in making the decision to purchase
the Securities, has relied upon independent investigation made by it and the
representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings set
forth in the Transaction Documents and has not relied on any information or
representations made by third parties.

     

    (h) Accredited
Investor.  Such Purchaser is an “accredited investor” (as
defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D), and such Purchaser has such experience in
business and financial matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of an investment in the Securities.  Such Purchaser is not
required to be registered as a broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange
Act and such Purchaser is not a broker-dealer.  Such Purchaser
acknowledges that an investment in the Securities is speculative and involves a
high degree of risk.

Fees.  The Purchasers have not employed any broker or finder or
incurred any liability for any brokerage or investment banking fees,
commissions, finders' structuring fees, financial advisory fees or other similar
fees in connection with the Transaction Documents.

     

    (j) Independent
Investment.  Except as may be disclosed in any filings with the
Commission by the Purchasers under Section 13 and/or Section 16 of the Exchange
Act, no Purchaser has agreed to act with any other Purchaser for the purpose of
acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of the Preferred Shares purchased
hereunder for purposes of Section 13(d) under the Exchange Act, and each
Purchaser is acting independently with respect to its investment in the
Securities.

     

    (k) No
Shorting.  No Purchaser has not engaged in any short sales of
any securities of the Company or instructed any third parties to engage in any
short sales of securities of the Company on its behalf prior to the Closing
Date.  Each Purchaser covenants and agrees that it will not be in a
net short position with respect to the shares of Common Stock issued or issuable
to it.

     

    (l) Not an
Affiliate.  Such Purchaser is not an officer, director or
“affiliate” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act) of the
Company.

transfer, sale or assignment of the Common Stock hereunder, and no Purchaser
effecting a pledge of Common Stock shall be required to provide the Company with
any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to
this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; provided that a Purchaser and

    CERTIFICATE
LEGEND

     

    Section
5.1 Legend.  Each
certificate representing the Securities shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted
with a legend substantially in the following form (in addition to any legend
required by applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws):

     

    THE
SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE (THE “SECURITIES”) HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”)
OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE
DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE
STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR WORLD RACING GROUP, INC. SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION
OF COUNSEL THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND
UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT
REQUIRED.

     

    The
Company agrees to reissue certificates representing any of the Preferred Shares
and the Series E-1 Shares and/or Common Shares, without the legend set forth
above if at such time, prior to making any transfer of any such Preferred Shares
or Series E-1 Shares and/or Common Shares, such holder thereof shall give
written notice to the Company describing the manner and terms of such transfer
and removal as the Company may reasonably request.  Such proposed
transfer and removal will not be effected until: (a) either (i) the Company has
received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the
effect that the registration of the Preferred Shares or Series E-1 Shares and/or
Common Shares under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such
proposed transfer, (ii) a registration statement under the Securities Act
covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Company with the
Commission and has become and remains effective under the Securities Act, (iii)
the Company has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company
that such registration and qualification under the Securities Act and state
securities laws are not required, or (iv) the holder provides the Company with
reasonable assurances that such security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under
the Securities Act; and (b) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that registration
or qualification under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state is not
required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii) compliance with
applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws has been effected or a valid
exemption exists with respect thereto.  The Company will respond to
any such notice from a holder within five (5) business days.  In the
case of any proposed transfer under this Section 5.1, the Company will use
reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable state securities or “blue
sky” laws, but shall in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do business in
any state where it is not then qualified, or (y) to take any action that would
subject it to tax or to the general service of process in any state where it is
not then subject.  The restrictions on transfer contained in this
Section 5.1 shall be in addition to, and not by way of limitation of, any other
restrictions on transfer contained in any other section of this
Agreement.  Whenever a certificate representing the Preferred Shares
or Series E-1 Shares and/or Common Shares is required to be issued to a
Purchaser without a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates
representing the Preferred Shares or Series E-1 Shares and/or Common Shares,
provided the Company's transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust
Company (“DTC”)
Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, the Company shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically
transmit the Preferred Shares or Series E-1 Shares and/or Common Shares to a
Purchaser by crediting the account of such Purchaser's Prime Broker with DTC
through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system (to the
extent not inconsistent with any provisions of this Agreement).

    INDEMNIFICATION

     

    Section
6.1 Company
Indemnity.  The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
the Purchasers (and their respective directors, officers, affiliates, agents,
successors and assigns) (each, a “Purchaser Indemnified
Party” and collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified
Parties”) from and against any and
all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) (“Damages”) incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties as a result of any
inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by
the Company herein; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable under this
Section 6.1 to a Purchaser Indemnified Party to the extent that such Damages
resulted or arose from the breach by a Purchaser Indemnified Party of any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of a Purchaser Indemnified Party
contained in the Transaction Documents or the gross negligence, recklessness,
willful misconduct or bad faith of a Purchaser Indemnified
Party.

     

    Section
6.2 Indemnification
Procedure.  Any party entitled to indemnification under this
Article VI (an “indemnified party”)
will give written notice to the indemnifying party of any matters giving rise to
a claim for indemnification; provided, that the failure of any indemnified party
to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of
its obligations under this Article VI except to the extent that the indemnifying
party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice.  In case
any such action, proceeding or claim is brought against an indemnified party in
respect of which indemnification is sought hereunder, the indemnifying party
shall be entitled to participate in and, unless in the reasonable judgment of
the indemnifying party a conflict of interest between it and the indemnified
party exists with respect to such action, proceeding or claim (in which case the
indemnifying party shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of
one separate counsel for the indemnified parties), to assume the defense thereof
with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party.  In the
event that the indemnifying party advises an indemnified party that it will not
contest such a claim for indemnification hereunder, or fails, within thirty (30)
days of receipt of any indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such person
of its election to defend, settle or compromise, at its sole cost and expense,
any action, proceeding or claim (or discontinues its defense at any time after
it commences such defense), then the indemnified party may, at its option,
defend, settle or otherwise compromise or pay such action or
claim.  In any event, unless and until the indemnifying party elects
in writing to assume and does so assume the defense of any such claim,
proceeding or action, the indemnified party's costs and expenses arising out of
the defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, claim or proceeding
shall be losses subject to indemnification hereunder.  The indemnified
party shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any
negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and
shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to
the indemnified party which relates to such action or claim.  The
indemnifying party shall keep the indemnified party fully apprised at all times
as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect
thereto.  If the indemnifying party elects to defend any such action
or claim, then the indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in such
defense with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense.  The
indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim
or proceeding effected without its prior written consent which shall not be
unreasonably withheld.  Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI to
the contrary, the indemnifying party shall not, without the indemnified party's
prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any
judgment in respect thereof which imposes any future obligation on the
indemnified party or which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof,
the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the indemnified party of a
release from all liability in respect of such claim.  The
indemnification required by this Article VI shall be made by periodic payments
of the amount thereof during the course of investigation or defense, as and when
bills are received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred, so long as
the indemnified party irrevocably agrees to refund such moneys if it is
ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such party was
not entitled to indemnification.  The indemnity agreements contained
herein shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or similar rights of the
indemnified party against the indemnifying party or others, and (b) any
liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the
law.

    MISCELLANEOUS

     

    Section
7.1 Fees and
Expenses.  Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its
advisors, 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, provided that the
Company shall pay all actual attorneys' fees and expenses (including
disbursements and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred by the Purchasers in
connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this
Agreement, and the transactions contemplated thereunder, which payment shall be
made at the Initial Closing and shall not exceed [$__,000], and (ii) any
amendments, modifications or waivers of this Agreement or any of the other
Transaction Documents.  The Company and the Purchasers hereby agree
that the prevailing party in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to the Securities, or this Agreement shall be entitled to reimbursement
for reasonable legal fees from the non-prevailing
party.  

     

    Section
7.2 Specific Performance;
Consent to Jurisdiction; Venue.

     

    (a) The
Company and the Purchasers acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would
occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement or the other
Transaction Documents are not performed in accordance with their specific terms
or are otherwise breached.  It is accordingly agreed that the parties
shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of
the provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and to
enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof or thereof, this being in
addition to any other remedy to which any of them may be entitled by law or
equity.

     

    (b) The
parties agree that venue for any dispute arising under this Agreement will lie
exclusively in the state or federal courts located in New York County, New York,
and the parties irrevocably waive any right to raise forum non conveniens or any
other argument that New York is not the proper venue.  The parties
irrevocably consent to personal jurisdiction in the state and federal courts of
the state of New York.  The Company and each Purchaser consent to
process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy
thereof 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 in this Section 7.2
shall affect or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted
by law.  The Company and the Purchasers hereby agree that the
prevailing party in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to
the Securities, or this Agreement shall be entitled to reimbursement for
reasonable legal fees from the non-prevailing party.

     

    Section
7.3 Entire Agreement;
Amendment.  This Agreement and the Transaction Documents
contain the entire understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to
the matters covered hereby and, except as specifically set forth herein or in
the other Transaction Documents, neither the Company nor any Purchaser make any
representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters,
and they supersede all prior understandings and agreements with respect to said
subject matter, all of which are merged herein.  Following the
Closing, no provision of this Agreement may be waived or amended other than by a
written instrument signed by the Company and the Purchasers holding at least a
majority of all Preferred Shares then held by the Purchasers.  Any
amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 7.3 shall be
binding upon each Purchaser (and their permitted assigns) and the
Company.

     

    Section
7.4 Notices.  Any
notice, demand, request, waiver or other communication required or permitted to
be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be effective (a) upon hand
delivery, by telecopy or facsimile (or other electronic transmission) at the

    Section
7.5 Waivers.  No
waiver by any party 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 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 accruing to it
thereafter.

     

    Section

only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose and

7.7 Successors and
Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties and their successors and assigns.  After the
Closing, the assignment by a party to this Agreement of any rights hereunder
shall not affect the obligations of such party under this
Agreement.  Subject to Section 5.1 hereof, the Purchasers may assign
the Securities and its rights under this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents and any other rights hereto and thereto without the consent of the
Company; provided, however, that such
Purchaser shall not assign such Securities and such rights under this Agreement
and the other Transaction Documents to any known competitor of the
Company.  Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, a Purchaser
may assign its rights as provided herein so long as (i) such Purchaser agrees in
writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of
such agreement is furnished to the Company within a reasonable time after such
assignment, (ii) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer or
assignment, furnished with written notice of (a) the name and address of such
transferee or assignee, and (b) the rights and/or securities with respect to
which such rights are being transferred or assigned, (iii) following such
transfer or assignment the further disposition of such securities by the
transferee or assignees is restricted under the Securities Act and applicable
state securities laws, (iv) at or before the time the Company receives the
written notice contemplated by clause (ii) of this Section 7.7, the transferee
or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the
provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and (v) such
transfer shall have been made in accordance with the applicable requirements of
this Agreement.

     

    Section
7.8 No Third Party
Beneficiaries.  Subject to the provisions of Article VI hereof,
this Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective permitted successors and assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor
may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person.

    Section
7.9 Governing
Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving
effect to any of the conflicts of law principles which would result in the
application of the substantive law of another jurisdiction.  This
Agreement shall not be interpreted or construed with any presumption against the
party causing this Agreement to be drafted.

     

    Section
7.10 Survival.  The
representations and warranties of the Company and the Purchasers shall survive
the execution and delivery hereof and the Closing until the third anniversary of
the Closing Date.

     

    Section
7.11 Counterparts.  This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same instrument and shall become effective
when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other
parties hereto, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same
counterpart.

     

    Section
7.12 Publicity.  The
Company agrees that it will not disclose, and will not include in any public
announcement, the names of the Purchasers without the consent of the Purchasers,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, or unless and until
such disclosure is required by law, rule or applicable regulation, and then only
to the extent of such requirement.

     

    Section
7.13 Severability.  The
provisions of this Agreement are severable and, in the event that any court of
competent jurisdiction shall determine that any one or more of the provisions or
part of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be
held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity,
illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or part of a
provision of this Agreement and this Agreement shall be reformed and construed
as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision, or part of such
provision, had never been contained herein, so that such provisions would be
valid, legal and enforceable to the maximum extent possible.

     

    Section
7.14 Further
Assurances.  From and after the date of this Agreement, upon
the request of the Purchasers or the Company, the Company and each Purchaser
shall execute and deliver such instruments, documents and other writings as may
be reasonably necessary or desirable to confirm and carry out and to effectuate
fully the intent and purposes of this Agreement.
