and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto.

The Company specifically acknowledges that its obligation to issue the Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Note is binding upon the Company and enforceable regardless of the dilution such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other stockholders of the Company, and the Company will honor such obligations, including honoring every Notice of Conversion (as contemplated by the Note), unless the Company is subject to an injunction (which injunction was not sought by the Company) prohibiting the Company from doing so.

Except for such fees arising as a result of any agreement or arrangement entered into by the Buyer without the knowledge of the Company (a “Buyer’s Fee”), Buyer shall have no obligation with respect to such fees or with respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type contemplated in this paragraph that may be due in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

The Company is not aware that any of its employees is obligated under any contract or other agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative agency, that would materially interfere with the use of his or her efforts to promote the interests of the Company or that would conflict with the Company’s business as presently conducted.  Neither the execution nor delivery of this Agreement, nor the carrying on of the Company’s business by the employees of the Company, nor the conduct of the Company’s business as presently conducted, will, to the Company’s knowledge, conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or instrument under which any of such employee is now obligated.  The Company does not believe it is or will be necessary to use any inventions of any of its employees made prior to their employment by the Company of which it is aware.

(ii)           Restrictive Legend.  The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that, until such time as the relevant Shares have been registered under the 1933 Act, and may be sold in accordance with another effective registration statement, or until such Shares can otherwise be sold without restriction, whichever is earlier, the certificates and other instruments representing any of the Securities shall bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of any such Securities):







THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR SALE IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.







(iii)           Confession of Judgment.  The Buyer shall not file the Confession of Judgment unless and until an Event of Default (as defined in the Note) shall have occurred.







b.           Covenants, Acknowledgements and Agreements of the Company.  As a condition to the Buyer’s obligation to purchase the Securities contemplated by this Agreement, and as a material inducement for the Buyer to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the Company covenants and agrees as follows:


 


(i)           Filings.  From the date hereof until all the Conversion Shares either have been sold by the Buyer, or may permanently be sold by the Buyer without any restrictions pursuant to Rule 144, (the “Registration Period”), the Company shall  timely make all filings required to be made by it under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, Rule 144 or any United States state securities laws and regulations thereof applicable to the Company or by the rules and regulations of the Principal Trading Market and such reports shall conform to the requirement of the applicable laws, regulations and government agencies, and, unless such filing is publicly available on the SEC’s EDGAR system (via the SEC’s web site at no additional charge), to provide a copy thereof to the Buyer promptly after such filing.  Additionally, within four business days following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall file a current report on Form 8-K describing the terms of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents in the form required by the Exchange Act and approved by Buyer and attaching the material transaction documents as exhibits to such filing.  Reference is made to the Section titled “Publicity, Filings, Releases, Etc.” below.  Additionally, the Company shall furnish to the Buyer, so long as the Buyer owns any Purchased Securities or Common Stock, promptly upon request, (1) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, (2) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Buyer to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.


 


(ii)           Reporting Status.  So long as the Buyer beneficially owns any of the Purchased Securities and for at least twenty (20) Trading Days thereafter, the Company shall file all reports required to be filed with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act, shall take all reasonable action under its control to ensure that adequate current public information with respect to the Company, as required in accordance with Rule 144(c)(2) of the 1933 Act, is publicly available, and shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would permit such termination.


 


 


 




  





11











  








 


(iii)           Listing.  The Company’s Common Stock shall be listed or quoted for trading on any of (a) theNYSE Amex, (b) New York Stock Exchange, (c) the Nasdaq Global Market, (d) the Nasdaq Capital Market, or (e) the Nasdaq OTC Bulletin Board. The Company shall promptly secure the listing of all of the Conversion Shares upon each national securities exchange and automated quotation system, if any, upon which the Common Stock is then listed (subject to official notice of issuance) and shall maintain such listing of all securities from time to time issuable under the terms of the Transaction Documents.  The Company will comply in all material respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the by-laws or rules of the Principal Trading Market and/or the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) or any successor thereto, as the case may be, applicable to it at least through the date which is sixty (60) days after the later of the date on which all of the Note have been converted or have been paid in full.


 


(iv)           Use of Proceeds.  The Company will use the net proceeds received hereunder for working capital and general corporate purposes; provided, however, that the Company will not use such proceeds to pay fees payable (x) to any broker or finder relating to the offer and sale of the Purchased Securities except Galileo, or (y) to any other party who purchased securities or loaned funds to the Company in any financing transaction effected prior to the Closing Date.


 


(v)           Publicity, Filings, Releases, Etc.  Each of the parties agrees that it will not disseminate any information relating to the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, including issuing any press releases, holding any press conferences or other forums, or filing any reports (collectively, “Publicity”), without giving the other party reasonable advance notice and an opportunity to comment on the contents thereof.  Neither party will include in any such Publicity any statement or statements or other material to which the other party reasonably objects, unless in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the party proposing such statement, such statement is legally required to be included.  In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company will provide to the Buyer’s Counsel drafts of the applicable text the first filing of a current report on Form 8-K or a Quarterly or Annual Report on Form 10-Q or 10-K (or equivalent SB forms), as the case may be, intended to be made with the SEC which refers to the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby as soon as practicable (but at least two (2) Trading Days before such filing will be made) and will not include in such filing (or any other filing filed before then) any statement or statements or other material to which the other party reasonably objects, unless in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the party proposing such statement, such statement is legally required to be included.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the parties hereby consents to the inclusion of the text of the Transaction Documents in filings made with the SEC (but any descriptive text accompanying or part of such filing shall be subject to the other provisions of this paragraph).  Notwithstanding, but subject to, the foregoing provisions of this  provision, the Company will, after the Closing Date, promptly issue a press release and file a current report on Form 8-K or, if appropriate, a quarterly or annual report on the appropriate form, referring to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.


 


                (vi)           FINRA Rule 5110. The Company is aware that the Corporate Financing Rule 5110 (“FINRA Rule 5110”) of FINRA is or may become applicable to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or to the sale by a Holder of any of the Securities. If FINRA Rule 5110 is so applicable, the Company shall, to the extent required by such rule, timely make any filings and cooperate with any broker or selling stockholder in respect of any consents, authorizations or approvals that may be necessary for FINRA to timely and expeditiously permit the stockholder to sell the securities.


 


(vii)           Keeping of Records and Books of Account. The Company shall keep and cause each Subsidiary, if any, to keep adequate records and books of account, in which complete entries will be made in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, reflecting all financial transactions of the Company and such subsidiaries, and in which, for each fiscal year, all proper reserves for depreciation, depletion, obsolescence, amortization, taxes, bad debts and other purposes in connection with its business shall be made.


 


 


 




  





12











  








 


(viii)           Corporate Existence.  The Company shall (a) do all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence, including, without limitation, all licenses or similar qualifications required by it to engage in its business in all jurisdictions in which it is at the time so engaged, (b) continue to engage in business of the same general type as conducted as of the date hereof, and (c) continue to conduct its business substantially as now conducted or as otherwise permitted hereunder.


 


(ix)           Taxes.  The Company shall pay and discharge promptly when due all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its income or profits or in respect of its property before the same shall become delinquent or in default, which, if unpaid, might reasonably be expected to give rise to liens or charges upon such properties or any part thereof, unless, in each case, the validity or amount thereof is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and the Company has maintained adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP.


 


(x)           Stockholder Approval.  The Company shall use its best efforts to obtain approval by the Company’s stockholders of the Transaction Documents at the first meeting of its stockholders following the Closing Date including, without limitation, a waiver of  NYSE Amex Rule 713 (“Rule 713”) in order that the 19.99% Cap shall not apply to any conversions of the Note or any exercise of the Warrant and approval for the issuance of not less than 4,800,001 shares of Common Stock, including the shares of Common Stock contemplated hereby pursuant to the Note and the Warrant, at a discount from book or market value at the time of issuance. Such approval shall be obtained no later than July 15, 2010.  For the avoidance of doubt, in the event the Company fails to obtain such approval, an Event of Default (as defined in the Note) shall occur but the Transaction Documents will remain in full force and effect.


 


(xi)           Compliance. The Company shall comply in all material respects with all federal, state and local laws and regulations, orders, judgments, decrees, injunctions, rules, regulations, permits, licenses, authorizations and requirements applicable to it (collectively, “Requirements”) of all governmental bodies, departments, commissions, boards, companies or associations insuring the premises, courts, authorities, officials or officers which are applicable to the Company, its business, operations, or any of its properties, except where the failure to so comply would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or any of its properties; provided, however, that nothing provided herein shall prevent the Company from contesting the validity or the application of any Requirements.







(xii)           3(a)(10) Shares.  In the event the Company, in violation of the covenants contained herein, ever ceases to be a reporting company for purposes of the 1934 Act for any period of time, then the Company, for so long as Rule 144 is not available to the Buyer as an exemption from registration, shall cause any of its shareholders who at such time are in possession of Common Stock tradable under Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act (“3(a)(10) Shares”) to cease to sell such 3(a)(10) Shares.


 


(xiii)           Litigation.  From and after the date hereof and until all of the Company’s obligations hereunder and the Note are paid and performed in full, the Company shall notify the Buyer in writing, promptly upon learning thereof, of any litigation or administrative proceeding commenced or threatened against the Company involving a claim in excess of $100,000.







(xiv)           Performance of Obligations.  The Company shall promptly and in a timely fashion perform and honor all demands, notices, requests and obligations that exist or may arise under the Transaction Documents.


 


 


 




  





13











  








 


(xv)           Listing Approval.  The Company shall have received listing approval from NYSE Amex for the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note and exercise of the Warrant as soon as practicable after Closing, but in no event later than May 1, 2010.


 


(xvi)           Authorized Shares. The Company shall at all times prior to repayment of the Note maintain sufficient authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock as may be necessary to effect the issuance of the Shares upon complete conversion of the Note and exercise of the Warrant. In any event, the Company shall reserve (i) for issuance upon conversion and/or payment of the Note not less than 4,000,000 Shares and (ii) for issuance upon exercise of the Warrant not less than 1,100,000 Shares.







6.           TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.







a.           The Company warrants that, with respect to the Securities, other than the stop transfer instructions to give effect to Section 4(a)(i) hereof, it will give the Transfer Agent no instructions inconsistent with instructions to issue Common Stock from time to time upon conversion of the Note, as may be applicable from time to time, in such amounts as specified from time to time by the Company to the Transfer Agent, bearing the restrictive legend specified in Section 4(a)(ii) of this Agreement prior to registration of the Shares under the 1933 Act, registered in the name of the Buyer or its nominee and in such denominations to be specified by the Holder in connection therewith.  Except as so provided, the Shares shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.  Nothing in this Section shall affect in any way the Buyer’s obligations and agreement to comply with all applicable securities laws upon resale of the Securities.  If the Buyer provides the Company with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that registration of a resale by the Buyer of any of the Securities in accordance with clause (1)(B) of Section 4(a)(i) of this Agreement is not required under the 1933 Act or upon request from a Holder while the Registration Statement is effective, the Company shall (except as provided in clause (2) of Section 4(a)(i) of this Agreement) permit the transfer of the Securities and, in the case of the Conversion Shares, as may be applicable, use its best efforts to cause the Transfer Agent to promptly electronically transmit to the Holder via the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer program such Conversion Shares.  The Company specifically represents that, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, (i) the Company’s Transfer Agent is (a) participating in the DTC program, (b) is DWAC eligible, and (ii)  the Company is not aware of any plans of the Transfer Agent to terminate such DTC participation or DWAC eligibility.  While any Holder holds Securities, the Company shall at all times maintain a transfer agent which participates in the DTC program and is DWAC eligible, and the Company will not appoint any transfer agent which does not both participate in the DTC program and maintain DWAC eligibility.  Nevertheless, in the event the Transfer Agent is not participating in the DTC/DWAC program or the Conversion Shares are not otherwise transferable via the DTC/DWAC program, then the Company shall instruct the Transfer Agent to issue one or more certificates for Common Stock without legend in such name and in such denominations as specified by the Buyer.  In the event the Company’s transfer agent is not DWAC eligible on any Conversion Date, and consequently the Company issues Conversion Shares pursuant to the Conversion Notice in certificated rather than electronic form, then in such event if the closing bid price of the Common Stock on the Principal Trading Market is lower on the date of delivery of the certificates to the Buyer than on the Conversion Date, such difference in the closing bid prices, multiplied by the number of Conversion Shares shall be added to the principal balance of the Note.


 


b.            The Company shall assume any fees or charges of the Transfer Agent or Company Counsel regarding (i) the removal of a legend or stop transfer instructions with respect to Securities, and (ii) the issuance of certificates or DTC registration to or in the name of the Holder or the Holder’s designee or to a transferee as contemplated by an effective Registration Statement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it shall be the Holder’s responsibility to obtain all needed formal requirements (specifically: medallion guarantee and prospectus delivery compliance) in connection with any electronic issuance of shares of Common Stock.

c.           The Holder of the Note  shall be entitled to exercise its conversion privilege with respect to the Note, as the case may be, notwithstanding the commencement of any case under 11 U.S.C. §101 et seq. (the “Bankruptcy Code”).  In the event the Company is a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code, the Company hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted, any rights to relief it may have under 11 U.S.C. §362 in respect of such holder’s exercise privilege.  The Company hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted, any rights to relief it may have under 11 U.S.C. §362 in respect of the conversion of the Note. The Company agrees, without cost or expense to such Holder, to take or to consent to any and all action necessary to effectuate relief under 11 U.S.C. §362.







7.           CLOSING DATE.


 


a.           The Closing Date shall occur on the date which is the first Trading Day after each of the conditions contemplated by Sections 7 and 8 hereof shall have either been satisfied or been waived by the party in whose favor such conditions run, but in any event shall not be later than March 26, 2010.


 


b.           Closing of the purchase and sale of Purchased Securities shall occur on the Closing Date at the offices of the Buyer and shall take place no later than 3:00 P.M., Eastern Time, on such day or such other time as is mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Buyer.

d.           There shall not be in effect any law, rule or regulation prohibiting or restricting the transactions contemplated hereby, or requiring any consent or approval which shall not have been obtained.

h.           All corporate and other proceedings in connection with the transactions contemplated at the Closing and all documents and instruments incident to such transactions shall be reasonably satisfactory in substance and form to the Buyer.







10.           INDEMNIFICATION AND REIMBURSEMENT.


 


a.           The Company agrees to defend, indemnify and forever hold harmless the Buyer and its officers, directors, employees, and agents, and each Buyer Control Person (the “Buyer Parties”) from and against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses incurred (collectively, “Damages”), joint or several, and any action in respect thereof to which the Buyer, its partners, Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and duly authorized agents, and any such Buyer Control Person becomes subject, resulting from, arising out of or relating to any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or nonfulfillment of or failure to perform any covenant or agreement on the part of Company contained in this Agreement, as such Damages are incurred.  The Buyer Parties with the right to be indemnified under this Section (the “Indemnified Parties”) shall have the right to defend any such action or proceeding with attorneys of their own selection, and the Company shall be solely responsible for all costs and expenses related thereto.  If the Indemnified Parties opt not to retain their own counsel, the Company shall defend any such action or proceeding with attorneys of its choosing at its sole cost and expense, provided that such attorneys have been pre-approved by the Indemnified Parties, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, and provided further that the Company may not settle any such action or proceeding without first obtaining the written consent of the Indemnified Parties.


 


 


 




  





16











  








 


b.           The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar rights of the Buyer Parties against the Company or others, and (ii) any liabilities the Company may be subject to.







11.           JURY TRIAL WAIVER.   The Company and the Buyer hereby waive a trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by either of the Parties hereto against the other in respect of any matter arising out or in connection with the Transaction Documents.


 


12.           SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE.  The Company and  the Buyer acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached.  It is accordingly agreed that the parties (including any Holder) shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, without (except as specified below) the necessity to post a bond, to prevent or cure breaches of the provisions of this Agreement or such other Transaction Document 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; provided, however that the Company, upon receipt of a Notice of Conversion or a Notice of Exercise, may not fail or refuse to deliver the stock certificates and the related legal opinions, if any, or if there is a claim for a breach by the Company of any other provision of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, the Company shall not raise as a legal defense, based on any claim that the Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with the Holder has violated any provision hereof or any other Transaction Document, has engaged in any violation of law or for any other reason, unless the Company has first posted a bond for one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the principal amount and, if relevant, then obtained a court order specifically directing it not to deliver said stock certificates to the Holder. The proceeds of such bond shall be payable to the Holder to the extent that the Holder obtains judgment or its defense is recognized.  Such bond shall remain in effect until the completion of the relevant proceeding and, if the Holder appeals therefrom, until all such appeals are exhausted.  This provision is deemed incorporated by reference into each of the Transaction Documents as if set forth therein in full.


 


13.           OWNERSHIP LIMITATION. If at any time after the Closing, the Buyer shall receive (or shall attempt to convert the Note into or exercise the Warrant for)  shares of the Common Stock in payment of interest or principal or on conversion of the Note or exercise of the Warrant, so that the Buyer would hold by virtue of such action or receipt of shares of Common Stock under or pursuant to conversion of the Note or exercise of the Warrant a number of shares exceeding 9.99% of the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock outstanding on such date (the “9.99% Cap”), the Company shall not be obligated and shall not issue to the Buyer shares of its Common Stock which would exceed the 9.99% Cap.


 


14.           NYSE AMEX  19.99% CAP.  The parties understand that the issuance of the Common Stock upon conversion of the Note or exercise of the Warrant may be or may become subject to Rule 713, which requires stockholder approval prior to the issuance of additional shares under certain circumstances.  Accordingly, in the event (i) the Buyer attempts to convert the Note or exercise the Warrant prior the Company’s receipt of such shareholder approval, and (ii) such conversion or exercise would require the Company to issue in excess of 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock on the Closing Date, then the Company shall not be obligated to issue to the Buyer any shares that would be in excess of the 19.99% Cap until required approvals are obtained from the stockholders and NYSE Amex; provided, however, that in the event that Rule 713 or other applicable NYSE Amex Rules do not apply, then the Company shall issue all requested shares in accordance with the terms and conditions Transaction Documents.







15.           MISCELLANEOUS.  The Company and the Buyer hereby agree that the provisions of this Section shall apply to all of the Transaction Documents.
