The Commission has not issued any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement filed by the Company or any subsidiary under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or the Securities Act.


 


h.   No Default or Violation.

i.      SEC Documents; Financial Statements.  Since January 1, 2007, the Company has filed all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it, with the Commission, pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (collectively referred to herein as the “SEC Documents”).  As of their respective dates, the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder applicable to such SEC Document.

The Company has not, in the two years preceding the date of this Agreement, received notice from the OTCBB or any other exchange or market on which the Common Stock is or has been listed or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such exchange or market. The Company is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue to be, in compliance with all such listing and maintenance requirements of the OTCBB. The issuance and sale of the Shares hereunder does not contravene the rules and regulations of the OTCBB and approval of the shareholders of the Company is not required for the Company to issue and deliver to the Purchasers the number of Shares contemplated by this Agreement.

Purchasers understands that its acquisition of the Shares has not been registered under the Securities Act or registered or qualified under any state securities law in reliance on specific exemptions therefrom, which exemptions may depend upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Purchasers’ investment intent as expressed herein, and the Company is not required and never intends to so register the Shares.

b.   Resale Restrictions.  Each Purchaser hereby covenants with the Company not to make any sale of the Shares without complying with the provisions of this Agreement and without satisfying all requirement of an applicable exemption under the Securities Act for such sale.  Each Purchaser acknowledges that the Shares will be imprinted with the following legend that prohibits their transfer except in accordance therewith:


 


THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY.


 


c.   Short Position.  Each Purchaser hereby covenants with the Company not to use any of the Shares acquired pursuant to this Agreement to cover any short position in the Common Stock of the Company if doing so would be in violation of applicable securities laws.


 


d.            No Advice.  Each Purchaser understands that nothing in the SEC Documents, this Agreement or any other materials presented to the Purchasers in connection with the purchase and sale of the Shares constitutes legal, tax or investment advice.  Each Purchaser has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of the Shares.


 


e.   Organization; Authority.  Each Purchaser is either an individual residing in the state as set forth on the signature page of this Agreement, or a corporation, limited liability company or limited partnership duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation with the requisite power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to carry out the obligations hereunder.  The purchase by Purchasers of the Shares hereunder has been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Purchasers.

f.     Risk.  Each Purchaser has carefully reviewed and understands the risks of, and other considerations relating to, the purchase of the Shares, and an investment in the Company.  Each Purchaser has adequate means of providing for its current needs and possible future contingencies, and each Purchaser has no need, and anticipates no need in the foreseeable future, to sell or otherwise transfer the Shares.  Each Purchaser is able to bear the economic risks of this investment and, consequently, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Purchaser is able to hold the Shares for an indefinite period of time and has sufficient net worth to sustain a loss of its entire investment in the Company if such loss should occur.  Each Purchaser understands that the purchase of the Shares is a highly speculative investment, which involves a high degree of risk of loss of each Purchaser’s entire investment therein.


 


g.   Reliance.  Each Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (i) the Shares are being offered and sold to the Purchasers without registration under the Securities Act in a private placement that is exempt from the registration provisions of the Securities Act under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D promulgated thereunder, and (ii) the availability of such exemption depends in part on, and the Company will rely upon the accuracy and truthfulness of, the representations set forth in this Section 2.2, including, without limitation, the accredited investor status and the investment intent of the Purchasers, and each Purchaser hereby consents to such reliance.


 


h.   Information.  Each Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Shares which have been requested by Purchasers or its advisors.  Each Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company and receive answers concerning the terms and conditions of the offering and obtain any additional information, which the Company possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense, that is necessary to verify the accuracy of any representations or information set forth in any such material. Representatives of the Company have adequately answered all inquiries that the Purchasers have made of them concerning the Company or any other matters relating to the operation of the Company and sale of the Shares.


 


i.      Taxes.  Each Purchaser is aware that the Company and its representatives assume no responsibility for the tax consequences to the Purchasers of any investment in the Company.


 


j.      No Representation or Promise.  No one has ever represented or promised expressly or by implication, any of the following: (i) the approximate or exact length of time that Purchasers will be required to remain as owner of the Shares, (ii) the amount or type of profit, or loss (including tax write-offs and/or tax benefits) to be realized, if any, as a result of the Purchasers’ investment, or (iii) that the past performance or experience of the officers or directors of the Company or any affiliate, their associates, agents, or employees or of any other person gives any assurance that the Company will be a success.


 


k.   Offering Literature; No Advertisement.  No Purchaser has been furnished any offering literature other than, and has relied only on the information contained in, (i) the SEC Documents, and (ii) this Agreement, including the exhibits and schedules thereto.  No Purchaser is purchasing the Shares as a result of, or subsequent to, any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio or presented at any seminar or meeting in which representatives of the Company were in attendance.


 


l.   Governmental Review.  Each Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Shares.

In accordance with the Amendment, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of shares designated as “Series B Preferred Stock” to 20,675,000.







On November 4, 2009, as a result of the trading value of our common stock exceeding $0.12 per share for a period of 30 consecutive calendar days, the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock converted by its terms into 7,437,184 shares of common stock.







As of November 13, 2009, warrants to purchase 8,491,928 shares of our common stock at $0.14 per share have been exercised, which increases the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding to 181,491,025 and reduces the number of options and warrants to acquire shares of Common Stock to 112,485,716.  Pursuant to the terms of a significant number of these outstanding warrants, the Company may force the exercise or forfeiture of such warrants; accordingly, the Company expects additional exercises in the near term.

Disclosure Schedule


Section 2.1(g)







On September 8, 2008, January 6, 2009, January 8, 2009 and January 15, 2009, the Company received letters from an investor in the Company’s 2007 private placement (“2007 Private Placement”), claiming (a) that its anti-dilution rights received on the 2007 Private Placement had been triggered by various amendments to the vesting provisions of outstanding warrants and that, as a result, it is entitled to receive additional shares of Company common stock, (b) breaches of its contractual rights to approve certain issuances of derivative securities, (c) breaches of other covenants made by the Company in the 2007 Private Placement, (d) the Company had violated its SEC disclosure obligations, and (e) various breaches by the members of the Board of Directors of their fiduciary duties.  If the investor’s position is correct, the Company may be required, among other things, to issue approximately 98,500,000 shares to such investor, and, if all of the other investors in the 2007 Private Placement sought the same remedy, the Company may be required to issue approximately 739,000,000 shares in the aggregate.  Issuing such shares of common stock would cause substantial dilution to existing shareholders and would exceed the number of the Company’s authorized shares of common stock.
