good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company has full power and authority to own, operate and occupy its properties and to conduct its business as presently conducted and is registered or qualified to do business and in good
standing in each jurisdiction in which it owns property or transacts business and where the failure to be so qualified would have a material adverse effect upon the Company and its subsidiaries as a whole or the business, financial condition,
properties, operations or assets of the Company and its subsidiaries as a whole or the Companys ability to perform its obligations under the Agreements in all material respects (Material Adverse Effect), and no proceeding
has been instituted in any such jurisdiction revoking, limiting or curtailing, or seeking to revoke, limit or curtail, such power and authority or qualification.



3.2    Due Authorization. The Company has all requisite power and authority to

the Company in accordance with their terms, except to the extent (i) rights to indemnity and contribution may be limited by state or federal securities
laws or the public policy underlying such laws, (ii) such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors and contracting parties rights generally
and (iii) such enforceability may be subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).



3.3    No Conflict or Default. The execution and delivery of the Agreements, the
issuance and sale of the Shares to be sold by the Company under the Agreements, the fulfillment of the terms of the Agreements and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby will not: (A) result in a conflict with or constitute a
material violation of, or material default (with the passage of time or otherwise) under, (i) any bond, debenture, note, loan agreement or other evidence of indebtedness, or any material lease, or contract to which the Company is a party or by
which the Company or their respective properties are bound, (ii) the Certificate of Incorporation, by-laws or other organizational documents of the Company, as amended, or (iii) any law, administrative regulation, or existing order of any
court or governmental agency, or other authority binding upon the Company or the Companys respective properties; or, (B) result in the creation or imposition of any lien, encumbrance, claim, or security interest upon any of the material
assets of the Company or an acceleration of indebtedness pursuant to any obligation, agreement or condition contained in any material bond, debenture, note or any other evidence of indebtedness or any material indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or
any other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company is subject, that would have a Material Adverse Effect. No consent, approval, authorization or other
order of, or registration, qualification or filing with, any regulatory body, administrative agency, or other governmental body is required for the execution and delivery of the Agreements by the Company and the valid issuance or sale of the Shares
by the Company pursuant to the Agreements, other than such as have been made or obtained, and except for any filings required to be made under federal or state securities laws.



3.4    Capitalization. The outstanding capital stock of the Company is as
described in the Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the three month period ending January 31, 2006 and the private placement memorandum dated June 21, 2006 (the Memorandum) provided to Investor. Except as
described in the SEC Reports or the Memorandum, the Company has not issued any capital stock, other than pursuant to the purchase of shares under the Companys employee stock option plan and the exercise of outstanding warrants or stock
options, in each case as disclosed in the Memorandum or the SEC Reports. The Shares and Warrant Shares to be sold pursuant to the Agreements and the Common Stock Purchase Warrants have been duly authorized, and when issued and paid for in accordance
with the terms of the Agreements and the Common Stock Purchase Warrants, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, subject to no lien, claim or encumbrance (except for any such lien, claim or encumbrance created, directly or
indirectly, by the Investor). The outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company have been duly and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable, have been issued in compliance with the registration requirements of federal and state
securities laws, and were not issued in violation of any preemptive rights or similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities. The Company owns one hundred percent of all of the outstanding capital stock of each of its subsidiaries, free and

Investor will give the Company at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice (or such shorter period as required by law) specifying the circumstances giving rise thereto and will furnish only that portion of the non-public information which
is legally required and will exercise its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that confidential treatment will be accorded any non-public information so furnished. The parties acknowledge and agree that as of the date hereof and as of the
