	TOTAL 	  	  	$ 	 4,000,000 	  	$ 	 233,561.64 	  







All capitalized terms not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Debentures or the Securities
Purchase Agreement as applicable. 











        The
Company is seeking to raise additional financing by selling units consisting of common
stock and warrants (the “Offering”) pursuant to the terms of the private
placement memorandum dated July 16, 2008 and attached hereto as Exhibit A (the
“Private Placement Memorandum”). The Buyer hereby consents to the Company
conducting and closing on the Offering in accordance with the terms set forth in the
Private Placement Memorandum, provided that (i) the gross proceeds of the Offering are at
least $3,000,000 (“Minimum Offering Amount”), and (ii) the Company closes
on the Minimum Offering Amount on or before September 30, 2008, unless extended in writing
by the Buyer (the “Closing Deadline”). 





	I. 	Agreements
Effective On Execution. The Buyer and the Company agree to the           following,
which shall be effective as of the date of execution of this letter           agreement: 






	 	1.	The
Buyer hereby defers the payment of Interest that was or will be due on the
          January 31, 2008, April 30, 2008, and July 31, 2008 Interest Payment Dates
until           the earlier of (i) September 30, 2008, or (ii) the closings of the
Offering for           the Minimum Offering Amount. For purposes of clarity, the total
Interest amount           that will be accrued on the Debentures as of July 31, 2008 will
be $267,534.25. 






	 	2.	The
Buyer hereby defers the payment of Installment Amounts that will be due on           the
July 31, 2008 and August 31, 2008 Installment Dates until September 30,           2008,
provided however, in the event that the Minimum Offering Amount is           successfully
raised on or before September 30, 2008, then such Installment           Amounts shall be
further deferred in accordance with Section II.2. below. 






	 	3.	In
consideration of the Buyer’s accommodations herein, the Company shall
          issue the Buyer 200,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock. 






	II. 	Agreements
Effective upon Effective Date. The Buyer and the Company           hereby agree to
the following, provided however, that the agreements contained           in this section
shall only become effective if and when the Company successfully           raises the
Minimum Offering Amount by the Closing Deadline (if accomplished,           such date of
accomplishment being referred to as the “Effective           Date”): 






	 	1.	The
Company shall pay the Buyer the deferred accrued and unpaid Interest of
          $267,534.25, in cash, on the business day after the Effective Date. Thereafter,
          the Company shall make monthly payments of accrued and unpaid interest
beginning           on November 1, 2008, and continuing on the first Business Day of each
successive           calendar month thereafter. 






	 	2.	The
Buyer shall defer the start of the Installment payments until February 2,           2009.
The first Installment Date therefore shall be February 2, 2009, and           subsequent
Installment Dates shall continue on the first Business Day of each           subsequent
calendar month thereafter. Furthermore, the Buyer shall reduce the           Installment
Amount due on the first eleven Installment Dates (i.e, the February           2, 2009
Installment Date through and including the December 1, 2009 Installment           Date)
to a Principal amount of $100,000. After the December 1, 2009 Installment           Date,
the remaining Installment Dates shall be the first Business day on or           after
January 31, 2010, April 30, 2010, July 31, 2010, and October 31, 2010
          (collectively, the “Remaining Installment Dates”). The
          Installment Amount with respect to the Remaining Installment Dates shall be
          equal to the Principal amount of $725,000. For the purposes of this section,
all           payment amounts are amounts to be paid in total among all of the Debentures
and           not per Debenture. The Buyer shall apply payments received to particular
          Debentures in its sole discretion and notify the Company promptly of such
          application. The Company shall have the option to make all payments described
in           this section in cash without any premiums as set forth in the Debentures 














	 	3.	The
Installment Amount on any Installment Date shall be reduced by the Principal
          amount of any conversions made by the Buyer prior to such Installment Date. For
          example, if the Buyer converted $200,000 of outstanding Principal of the
          Debentures prior to the February 2, 2009 Installment Date, the Company’s
          payment of the $100,000 Installment Amount pursuant to the February 2, 2009 and
          the March 1, 2009 Installment Dates would automatically be deferred. 






	 	4.	Pursuant
to Section 5 of the Debentures, the Conversion Price shall be reduced           as a
result of the issuance of shares in connection with the Offering. For           example,
if the shares are issued at a price of $0.35 per share, then the           Conversion
Price shall be reduced to $0.35. 






	 	5.	Pursuant
to Section 8 of the Warrants issued to the Buyer pursuant to the           Securities
Purchase Agreement, the exercise price of the Warrants and the number           of shares
underlying the Warrants shall be adjusted based on the exercise price           of the
warrants issued in connection with the Offering. For example, if the           exercise
price of the warrants is set at $0.50 per share, then, the exercise           price of
the Buyer’s warrants shall be reduced to $0.50 and the total           number of
shares underlying the Buyer’s warrants shall be increased from           600,000 to
1,500,000 shares. 






	 	6.	In
the event that the Company raises net proceeds from the Offering of at least
          $7,000,000, then on the date that such amount is raised, the following
          additional amendments shall be made: 






	 	a.	The
anti-dilution provisions of Section 5(a) of the Debentures and Section 8(a)           of
the Buyer’s warrants or other provisions which provide for reductions of
          conversion/exercise price based on the issuance of securities at a price less
          then current conversion/exercise price shall be deleted and no longer in effect
          (provided that no subsequent anti-dilution provisions are added, or adjustments
          for dilution made, to the shares or warrants issued in the Offering) and
          thereafter if the Company issues shares of its common stock at prices below the
          Conversion Price of below the exercise price, no further adjustment to such
          price shall be made.  






	 	b.	The
Interest Rate shall be increased from 10% to 12% from that point forward.  














	 	7.	In
connection with the Registration Rights Agreement (“Registration           Rights
Agreement”) on July 6, 2007 between the Buyer and the Company,           the
Company has filed and obtained effectiveness of the registration statement           (the
“Registration Statement”) originally filed with the           Securities
and Exchange Commission (File number 333-150559) on May 1, 2008 to           register the
resale by the Buyer of up to 6,600,000 shares of common stock           underlying the
Debentures and Warrants. In connection with the Registration           Statement and the
Registration Rights Agreement, the Company and Buyer agree as           follows: 






	 	a.	The
Company shall take all necessary step to maintain the effectiveness of the
          Registration Statement at all times until all shares registered have been
          resold, including, without limitation, filing, as soon as practicable within 20
          Business Days of the Effective Date, any and all supplements and amendments to
          the Registration Statement to update the Registration Statement to reflect the
          changes to the Debentures and Warrants set forth herein, and to file, in a
          timely matter, all supplements and amendments to keep current the financial
          information contained in the Registration Statement in accordance with the
rules           and regulations of the SEC.  






	 	b.	The
Buyer agrees that Company shall not be required to file any additional
          registration statements on behalf of the Buyer, or register the resale of any
          additional shares on behalf of the Buyer.  






	 	c.	The
Company represents, warrants, and agrees that after the Effective Date, for           the
purposes of Rule 144, the holding period for each of the Debentures shall
          commence on the respective date that the Buyer fully paid for such Debenture,
          which are the dates referenced next to each of the Debentures in the table
          above.  






	III. 	Representations,
Warranties, and Covenants or General Effect. 






	 	1.	The
Company hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees that as of the date hereof,
          Company is indebted to the Buyer under the Debentures in the outstanding
          principal amount set forth in the table above, plus accrued and unpaid interest
          thereon, and any other fees, costs, expenses and other charges now or hereafter
          payable (collectively, the “Obligations”) and such Obligations
          are unconditionally owed by Company to the Buyer, without offset, defense or
          counterclaim of any kind, nature or description whatsoever.






	 	2.	The
Company hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees that the Buyer has and           shall
continue to have valid, enforceable and perfected first-priority liens           upon and
security interests in the pledged property heretofore granted to the           Buyer
pursuant to the Security Agreement dated July 6, 2007 between the Company           and
the Buyer (the “Security Agreement”) or otherwise granted           to
or held by the Buyer. 






	 	3.	The
Buyer acknowledges that the Company has approved a 12 for 1 reverse stock           split
of its common stock, and should it proceed, the conversion price of the
          Debentures, the exercise price of the Warrants and the number of Warrants will
          be adjusted on the same ratio as the reverse stock split. 






	 	4.	Effect
of this Agreement. Except as modified pursuant hereto, no other           changes or
modifications to the Debentures, Securities Purchase Agreement, or           other

such documents are hereby specifically ratified, restated and confirmed           by all
parties hereto as of the effective date hereof.
