      and warranties
      to each
      Investor with the intention and understanding that, as to matters pertaining
      to
      Nice Enterprise and its subsidiaries and the Exchange, such representations
      and
      warranties are made as of the Closing Date and assuming that the Exchange shall
      have been consummated immediately prior to the Closing:

     

    (a)  Subsidiaries.
      All of
      the direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Company are set forth on Schedule
      3.1(a).
      Except
      as disclosed in Schedule
      3.1(a),
      the
      Company owns, directly or indirectly, all of the capital stock of each
      Subsidiary free and clear of any and all Liens, and all the issued and
      outstanding shares of capital stock of each Subsidiary are validly issued and
      are fully paid, non-assessable and free of preemptive and similar rights. The
      Company owns all of the outstanding capital stock of Nice Enterprise in

    (b)  Organization
      and Qualification.
      The
      Company and each Subsidiary are duly incorporated or otherwise organized,
      validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of
      its
      incorporation or organization (as applicable), with the requisite power and
      authority to own and use its properties and assets and to carry on its business
      as currently conducted. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation
      of any of the provisions of its respective certificate or articles of
      incorporation, bylaws or other organizational or charter documents. The Company
      and each Subsidiary are duly qualified to conduct its respective businesses
      and
      are in good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each
      jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned
      by
      it makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so
      qualified or in good standing, as the case may be, could not, individually
      or in
      the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
      Effect.

     

    (c)  Authorization;
      Enforcement.
      The
      Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to
      consummate the transactions contemplated by each of the Transaction Documents
      and otherwise to carry out its obligations thereunder. The execution and
      delivery of each of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the
      consummation by it of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly
      authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Company and no further
      action is required by the Company, its board of directors or its stockholders
      in
      connection therewith. Each Transaction Document has been (or upon delivery
      will
      have been) duly executed by the Company and, when delivered in accordance with
      the terms hereof, will constitute the valid and binding obligation of the
      Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except
      as
      such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
      reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or
      affecting generally the enforcement of, creditors’ rights and remedies or by
      other equitable principles of general application.

     

    (d)  No
      Conflicts.
      The
      execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company
      and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated thereby
      do
      not and will not (i) conflict with or violate any provision of the Company’s or
      any Subsidiary’s certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other
      organizational or charter documents, or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a
      default (or an event that 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 (with or without notice, lapse of time or both)
      of,
      any agreement, credit facility, debt or other instrument (evidencing a Company
      or Subsidiary debt or otherwise) or other understanding to which the Company
      or
      any Subsidiary is a party or by which any property or asset of the Company
      or
      any Subsidiary is bound or affected, or (iii) result in a violation of any
      law,
      rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction
      of
      any court or governmental authority to which the Company or a Subsidiary is
      subject (including federal and state securities laws and regulations), or by
      which any property or asset of the Company or a Subsidiary is bound or affected;
      except in the case of each of clauses (ii) and (iii), such as could not,
      individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result
      in a
      Material Adverse Effect.

      any Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional securities of the
      Company or any Subsidiary. The issue and sale of the Securities will not,
      immediately or with the passage of time, obligate the Company to issue shares
      of
      Common Stock or other securities to any Person (other than the Investors) and
      will not result in a right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the
      exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under such securities. All of

      paid and nonassessable, have been issued in compliance with all federal and

      to
      employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and

      individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
      Adverse Effect.

      time or both, would result in a default by the Company or any Subsidiary under),
      nor has the Company or any Subsidiary received notice of a claim that it is
      in
      default under or that it is in violation of, any indenture, loan or credit
      agreement or any other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by
      which it or any of its properties is bound (whether or not such default or
      violation has been waived), (ii) is in violation of any order of any U.S. or
      foreign court, arbitrator or governmental body, or (iii) is or has been in
      violation of any U.S. or foreign statute, rule or regulation of any governmental
      authority, including without limitation all foreign, federal, state and local
      laws relating to taxes, environmental protection, occupational health and
      safety, product quality and safety and employment and labor matters, except
      in
      each case as could not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably
      be
      expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Exchange Agreement and
      the
      transaction contemplated thereby comply with all applicable laws, rules and
      regulations of the United States and the People’s Republic of China.


     

    (o)  Regulatory
      Permits.
      The
      Company and the Subsidiaries possess all certificates, authorizations and
      permits issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory
      authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses as described in
      the
      Disclosure Documents, except where the failure to possess such permits could
      not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result
      in a Material Adverse Effect, and neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has
      received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification
      of
      any such permits.

    (p)  Title
      to Assets.
      The
      Company and the Subsidiaries have good and marketable title to all real property
      owned by them that is material to their respective businesses and good and
      marketable title in all personal property owned by them that is material to
      their respective businesses, in each case free and clear of all Liens, except
      for Liens as do not materially affect the value of such property and do not
      materially interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property
      by the Company and the Subsidiaries. Any real property and facilities held
      under
      lease by the Company and the Subsidiaries are held by them under valid,
      subsisting and enforceable leases of which the Company and the Subsidiaries
      are
      in compliance, except as could not, individually or in the aggregate, have
      or
      reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

     

    (q)  Patents
      and Trademarks.
      The
      Company and the Subsidiaries have, or have rights to use, all patents, patent
      applications, trademarks, trademark applications, service marks, trade names,
      copyrights, licenses and other similar rights that are necessary or material
      for
      use in connection with their respective businesses as described in the
      Disclosure Documents and which the failure to so have could, individually or
      in
      the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
      Effect (collectively, the “Intellectual
      Property Rights”).
      Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received a written notice that the
      Intellectual Property Rights used by the Company or any Subsidiary violates
      or
      infringes upon the rights of any Person. All such Intellectual Property Rights
      are enforceable and there is no existing infringement by another Person of
      any
      of the Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and its Subsidiaries have
      taken
      reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value
      of all of their intellectual properties, except where failure to do so could
      not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
      Adverse Effect.

     

    (r)  Insurance.
      The
      Company and the 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. 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 on terms consistent with market for the
      Company’s and such Subsidiaries’ respective lines of business without a
      significant increase in cost. 

     

    (s)  Transactions
      With Affiliates and Employees.
      Except
      as set forth in the Company’s SEC Reports, Nice Financial Statements or
Schedule
      3.1(s),
      none of
      the officers, directors or employees of the Company or any Subsidiary is
      presently a party to any transaction with the Company or any Subsidiary (other
      than for services as employees, officers and directors), including any contract,
      agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to
      or
      by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise
      requiring payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to
      the
      knowledge of the Company, any entity in which any officer, director, or any
      such
      employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee or
      partner, in each case in excess of $60,000 other than (i) for payment of salary
      or consulting fees for services rendered, or (ii) reimbursement for bona fide
      expenses incurred on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary.

    (t)  Internal
      Accounting Controls.
      Except
      as set forth on Schedule
      3.1(t),
      the
      Company is in compliance with all requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of
      2002, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, that are applicable
      to it. The Company and the 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, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is
      compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action
      is taken with respect to any differences. The Company has established disclosure
      controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and
      15d-15(e)) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures
      to ensure that information required
      to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the
      Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time
      periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms.
      The
      Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s
      disclosure controls and procedures as
      of the
      end of the period covered by the Company’s most recently filed periodic report
      under the Exchange Act (such
      date, the “Evaluation
      Date”).
      The
      Company presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange
      Act the conclusions of the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the
      disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the
      Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no significant
      changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (as such
      term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that has materially
      affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal
      control over financial reporting.

     

    (u)  Solvency.
      Based
      on the financial condition of the Company as of the Closing Date (and assuming
      that the Closing shall have occurred), (i) the Company’s fair saleable value of
      its assets exceeds the amount that will be required to be paid on or in respect
      of the Company’s existing debts and other liabilities (including known
      contingent liabilities) as they mature, (ii) the Company’s assets do not
      constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business for the current
      fiscal year as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its
      capital needs taking into account the particular capital requirements of the
      business conducted by the Company, and projected capital requirements and
      capital availability thereof, and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company,
      together with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to liquidate
      all
      of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash,
      would
      be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its debt when such amounts
      are required to be paid. The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond
      its
      ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and
      amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt).

     

    (v)  Certain
      Fees.
      Except
      for fees payable to the Placement Agent, no brokerage or finder’s fees or
      commissions are or will be payable by the Company or any Subsidiary to any
      broker, financial advisor or consultant, finder, placement agent, investment
      banker, bank or other Person with respect to the transactions contemplated
      by
      the Transaction Documents. The Investors shall have no obligation with respect
      to any fees or with respect to any claims (other than such fees or commissions
      owed by an Investor pursuant to written agreements executed by such Investor
      which fees or commissions shall be the sole responsibility of such Investor)
      made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type contemplated in this
      Section that may be due in connection with the transactions contemplated by
      this
      Agreement.

    (w)  Certain
      Registration Matters.
      Assuming the accuracy of the Investors’ representations and warranties set forth
      in Section 3.2(b)-(e), no registration under the Securities Act is required
      for
      the offer and sale of the Securities by the Company to the Investors under the
      Transaction Documents. The Company is eligible to register its Common Stock
      for
      resale by the Investors under Form S-1 promulgated under the Securities Act.
      Except as set forth on Schedule
      3.1(w),
      the
      Company has not granted or agreed to grant to any Person any rights (including
      “piggy-back” registration rights) to have any securities of the Company
      registered with the Commission or any other governmental authority that have
      not
      been satisfied.

     

    (x)  Listing
      and Maintenance Requirements.
      The
      Company’s Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the
      Exchange Act, and the Company has taken no action designed to, or which to
      its
      knowledge is likely to have the effect of, terminating the registration of
      the
      Common Stock under the Exchange Act nor has the Company received any
      notification that the Commission is contemplating terminating such registration.
      The Company has not during the two years preceding the date hereof, received
      notice from any Trading Market to the effect that the Company is not in
      compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements thereof. The Company
      is,
      and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable future continue
      to be, in compliance with the listing and maintenance requirements for continued
      listing of the Common Stock on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock
      is
      currently listed or quoted. The issuance and sale of the Securities under the
      Transaction Documents does not contravene the rules and regulations of the
      Trading Market on which the Common Stock is currently listed or quoted, and
      no
      approval of the stockholders of the Company thereunder is required for the
      Company to issue and deliver to the Investors the Securities contemplated by
      the
      Transaction Documents.

     

    (y)  Investment
      Company.
      The
      Company is not, and is not an Affiliate of, and immediately following the
      Closing will not have become, an “investment company” within the meaning of the
      Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

     

    (z)  Application
      of Takeover Protections.
      The
      Company and its Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if any,
      in
      order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business
      combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement)
      or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Company’s certificate of
      incorporation (or similar charter documents) or the laws of its state of
      incorporation that is or could become applicable to the Investors as a result
      of
      the Investors and the Company fulfilling their obligations or exercising their
      rights under the Transaction Documents, including without limitation the
      Company’s issuance of the Securities and the Investors’ ownership of the
      Securities.

     

    (aa)  No
      Additional Agreements.
      The
      Company does not have any agreement or understanding with any Investor with
      respect to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents other
      than
      as specified in the Transaction Documents.

    (bb)  Consultation
      with Auditors.
      The
      Company has consulted its independent auditors concerning the accounting
      treatment of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and
      in
      connection therewith has furnished such auditors complete copies of the
      Transaction Documents.

     

    (cc)  Make
      Good Shares.
      The
      Make Good Pledgor is the sole record and beneficial owner of the 2008 Make
      Good
      Shares and 2009 Make Good Shares, and to the knowledge of the Company holds
      such
      shares free and clear of all Liens.

     

    (dd)  Disclosure.
      The
      Company confirms that neither it nor any Person acting on its behalf has
      provided any Investor or its respective agents or counsel with any information
      that the Company believes constitutes material, non-public information
      concerning the Company, the Subsidiaries or their respective businesses, except
      insofar as the existence and terms of the proposed transactions contemplated
      hereunder may constitute such information. The Company understands and confirms
      that the Investors will rely on the foregoing representations and covenants
      in
      effecting transactions in securities of the Company. All disclosure provided
      to
      the Investors regarding the Company, the Subsidiaries or their respective
      businesses and the transactions contemplated hereby, furnished by or on behalf
      of the Company (including the Company’s representations and warranties set forth
      in this Agreement) are true and correct and do not contain any untrue statement
      of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to
      make
      the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
      were
      made, not misleading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any draft of the
      Registration Statement to be filed on Form S-1 in connection with the
      transactions contemplated hereby that was provided to the Investors prior to
      the
      date hereof was incomplete in the form distributed, and such Investor is not
      relying on such draft on Form S-1 in making its decision to enter into the
      transactions contemplated hereby.

     

    (ee)  No
      Integrated Offering.
      Assuming
      the accuracy of the Investors’ representations and warranties set forth in
      Section 3.2, 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 this offering of the Securities to be integrated
      with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act or any
      applicable shareholder approval provisions of any Trading Market on which any
      of
      the securities of the Company are listed or designated. 

     

    (ff)  Tax
      Status.
      Except
      as set forth on Schedule
      3.1(ff),
      and for
      matters that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably
      be
      expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the Company and each Subsidiary
      has filed all necessary federal, state and foreign income and franchise tax
      returns and has paid or accrued all taxes shown as due thereon, and the Company
      has no knowledge of a tax deficiency which has been asserted or threatened
      against the Company or any Subsidiary.

     

    (gg)  No
      General Solicitation.
      Neither
      the Company nor any person acting on behalf of the Company has offered or sold
      any of the Securities by any form of general solicitation or general
      advertising. The Company has offered the Securities for sale only to the
      Investors and certain other “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule
      501 under the Securities Act.

    (hh)  Foreign
      Corrupt Practices.
      Neither
      the Company, any FCPA Subsidiary, nor to the knowledge of the Company or any
      FCPA Subsidiary, any agent or other person acting on behalf of the Company

      Statement, are each a registered public accounting firms as required by the
      Securities Act and are independent of the Company and Nice Enterprise , as
      the
      case may be, in accordance with Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X under the Exchange
      Act. 

     

    (jj)  Acknowledgment
      Regarding Investors’ Purchase of Securities.
      The
      Company acknowledges and agrees that each of the Investors is acting solely
      in
      the capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to the Transaction
      Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby. The Company further
      acknowledges that no Investor is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary
      of
      the Company (or in any similar capacity) with respect to the Transaction
      Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby and any advice given by
      any
      Investor or any of their respective representatives or agents in connection
      with
      the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby is merely
      incidental to the Investors’ purchase of the Securities. The Company further
      represents to each Investor that the Company’s decision to enter into this
      Agreement and the other Transaction Documents has been based solely on the
      independent evaluation of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Company
      and its representatives.

     

    (kk)  Acknowledgement
      Regarding Investors’ Trading Activity.
      Anything
      in this Agreement or elsewhere herein to the contrary notwithstanding (except
      for Sections 3.2(f) and 4.5 hereof), it is understood and acknowledged by the
      Company (i) that none of the Investors have been asked to agree, nor has any
      Investor agreed, to desist from purchasing or selling, long and/or short,
      securities of the Company, or “derivative” securities based on securities issued
      by the Company or to hold the Securities for any specified term; (ii) that
      past
      or future open market or other transactions by any Investor, including Short
      Sales, and specifically including, without limitation, Short Sales or
“derivative” transactions, before or after the closing of this or future private
      placement transactions, may negatively impact the market price of the Company’s
      publicly-traded securities; (iii) that any Investor, and counter-parties in
      “derivative” transactions to which any such Investor is a party, directly or
      indirectly, presently may have a “short” position in the Common Stock, and (iv)
      that each Investor shall not be deemed to have any affiliation with or control
      over any arm’s length counter-party in any “derivative” transaction. The Company
      further understands and acknowledges that (a) one or more Investors may engage
      in hedging activities at various times during the period that the Securities
      are
      outstanding, including, without limitation, during the periods that the value
      of
      the Warrant Shares deliverable with respect to Securities are being determined
      and (b) such hedging activities (if any) could reduce the value of the existing
      stockholders' equity interests in the Company at and after the time that the
      hedging activities are being conducted.  The Company acknowledges that such
      aforementioned hedging activities do not constitute a breach of any of the
      Transaction Documents.

      purchased, or, paid any compensation for soliciting purchases of, any of the

      and Warranties of the Investors.
      Each
      Investor hereby, for itself and for no other Investor, represents and warrants
      to the Company as follows:

     

    (a)  Organization;
      Authority.
      If an
      entity, such Investor is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
      under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization with the requisite
      corporate or partnership power and authority to enter into and to consummate
      the
      transactions contemplated by the applicable Transaction Documents and otherwise
      to carry out its obligations thereunder. The execution, delivery and performance
      by such Investor of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement has been
      duly authorized by all necessary corporate or, if such Investor is not a
      corporation, such partnership, limited liability company or other applicable
      like action, on the part of such Investor. Each of this Agreement and the
      Registration Rights Agreement has been duly executed by such Investor, and
      when
      delivered by such Investor in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute
      the valid and legally binding obligation of such Investor, enforceable against
      it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited
      by
      applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation
      or
      similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditors’
rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general
      application.

     

    (b)  Investment
      Intent.
      Such
      Investor is acquiring the Securities as principal for its own account for
      investment purposes only and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling
      such Securities or any part thereof, without prejudice, however, to such
      Investor’s right at all times to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of
      such Securities in compliance with applicable federal and state securities
      laws.
      Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, nothing contained herein shall
      be
      deemed a representation or warranty by such Investor to hold the Securities
      for
      any period of time. Such Investor is acquiring the Securities hereunder in
      the
      ordinary course of its business. Such Investor does not have any agreement
      or
      understanding, directly or indirectly, with any Person to distribute any of
      the
      Securities.

    (c)  Investor
      Status.
      At the
      time such Investor was offered the Securities, it was, and at the date hereof
      it
      is, an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act.
      Such Investor is not a registered broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange
      Act.

     

    (d)  General
      Solicitation.
      Such
      Investor is not purchasing the Securities as a result of any advertisement,
      article, notice or other communication regarding the Securities published in
      any
      newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio
      or
      presented at any seminar or any other general solicitation or general
      advertisement.

     

    (e)  Access
      to Information.
      Such
      Investor acknowledges that it has reviewed the Disclosure Materials and has
      been
      afforded (i) the opportunity to ask such questions as it has deemed necessary
      of, and to receive answers from, representatives of the Company concerning
      the
      terms and conditions of the offering of the Securities and the merits and risks
      of investing in the Securities; (ii) access to information about the Company
      and
      the Subsidiaries and their respective financial condition, results of
      operations, business, properties, management and prospects sufficient to enable
      it to evaluate its investment; and (iii) the opportunity to obtain such
      additional information that the Company possesses or can acquire without
      unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to make an informed investment
      decision with respect to the investment. Neither such inquiries nor any other
      investigation conducted by or on behalf of such Investor or its representatives
      or counsel shall modify, amend or affect such Investor’s right to rely on the
      truth, accuracy and completeness of the Disclosure Materials and the Company’s
      representations and warranties contained in the Transaction Documents.


     

    (f)  Certain
      Trading Activities.
      Such
      Investor has not directly or indirectly, nor has any Person acting on behalf
      of
      or pursuant to any understanding with such Investor, engaged in any transactions
      in the securities of the Company (including, without limitations, any Short
      Sales involving the Company’s securities) since the earlier to occur of (1) the
      time that such Investor was first contacted by the Company or the Placement
      Agent regarding an investment in the Company and (2) the 30th
      day
      prior to the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
      case
      of an Investor that is a multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate
      portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Investor's assets and the
      portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made
      by
      the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Investor's assets, the
      representation set forth above shall only apply with respect to the portion
      of
      assets managed by the portfolio manager that made the investment decision to
      purchase the Securities covered by this Agreement. Such Investor covenants
      that
      neither it nor any Person acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding
      with it will engage in any direct or indirect purchase or sale of the securities
      of the Company (including Short Sales) prior to the time that the transactions
      contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed.

     

    (g)  No
      Governmental Review.
      Such
      Investor understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other
      government or governmental agency has passed on or made any recommendation
      or
      endorsement of the Securities or the fairness or suitability of the investment
      in the Securities nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits
      of the offering of the Securities.

    (h)  No
      Conflicts.
      The
      execution, delivery and performance by such Investor of this Agreement and
      the
      consummation by such Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby will
      not
      (i) result in a violation of the organizational documents, if any, of such
      Investor, (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, indenture or instrument to which such Investor is a party, or (iii)
      result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree
      (including federal and state securities laws) applicable to such Investor,
      except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, that do not otherwise affect
      the ability of such Investor to consummate the transactions contemplated
      hereby.

     

    (i)  Restricted
      Securities.
      The
      Investors understand that the Securities are characterized as “restricted
      securities” under the U.S. federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being
      acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a public offering
      and
      that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold
      without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited
      circumstances. 

     

    (j)  Legends.
      It is
      understood that, except as provided in Section 4.1(b)
      of this
      Agreement, certificates evidencing such Securities may and shall bear the legend
      set forth in Section 4.1(b).
      

     

    (k)  No
      Legal, Tax or Investment Advice.
      Such
      Investor understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials
      presented by or on behalf of the Company to the Investor in connection with
      the
      purchase of the Securities constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. Such
      Investor 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 Securities. Such Investor understands that the Placement Agent
      has acted solely as the agent of the Company in this placement of the
      Securities, and that the Placement Agent makes no representation or warranty
      with regard to the merits of this transaction or as to the accuracy of any
      information such Investor may have received in connection therewith. Such
      Investor acknowledges that he has not relied on any information or advice
      furnished by or on behalf of the Placement Agent.

     

    (l)  Independent
      Investment Decision.
      Such
      Investor has independently evaluated the merits of its decision to purchase
      the
      Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents, and such Investor confirms
      that it has not relied on the advice of any other Investor’s business and/or
      legal counsel in making such decision. Such Investor has not relied on the
      business or legal advice of Placement Agent or any of its agents, counsel or
      Affiliates in making its investment decision hereunder, and confirms that none
      of such Persons has made any representations or warranties to such Investor
      in
      connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
      Documents.

     

    The
      Company acknowledges and agrees that no Investor has made or makes any
      representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated
      hereby other than those specifically set forth in this Section
      3.2.
      or as
      set forth in the subscription documents for the Securities (including an
      Investor suitability questionnaire, FINRA questionnaire and Investor
      acknowledgement and agreement included therein).

    ARTICLE

    OTHER
      AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

     

    4.1. 
        (a)    Securities
      may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws.
      In
      connection with any transfer of the Securities other than pursuant to an
      effective registration statement, to the Company, to an Affiliate of an Investor
      or in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company
      may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company an opinion of
      counsel selected by the transferor, the form and substance of which opinion
      shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such
      transfer does not require registration of such transferred Securities under
      the
      Securities Act.

     

    (b)  Certificates
      evidencing the Securities will contain the following legend, until such time
      as
      they are not required under Section 4.1(c):

     

    NEITHER
      THESE SECURITIES NOR THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THESE SECURITIES
      HAVE BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE
      SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE 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 PURSUANT TO 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. THESE SECURITIES AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THESE
      SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT SECURED
      BY SUCH SECURITIES.

     

    The
      Company acknowledges and agrees that an Investor may from time to time pledge,
      and/or grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities pursuant
      to a
      bona fide margin agreement in connection with a bona fide margin account and,
      if
      required under the terms of such agreement or account, such Investor may
      transfer pledged or secured Securities
      to the
      pledgees or secured parties. Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject
      to
      approval or consent of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel to
      the
      pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection with the
      pledge, but such legal opinion may be required in connection with a subsequent
      transfer following default by the Investor transferee of the pledge. No notice
      shall be required of such pledge. At the appropriate Investor’s expense, the
      Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee
      or
      secured party of Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge
      or transfer of the Securities including the preparation and filing of any
      required prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) of the Securities Act or
      other applicable provision of the Securities Act to appropriately amend the
      list
      of Selling Stockholders thereunder. Except as otherwise provided in Section
      4.1(c), any Securities subject to a pledge or security interest as contemplated
      by this Section 4.1(b) shall continue to bear the legend set forth in this
      Section 4.1(b) and be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in
      Section 4.1(a).

    (c)  Certificates
      evidencing the Securities shall not contain any legend (including the legend
      set
      forth in Section 4.1(b)): (i) following a sale or transfer of such Securities
      pursuant to an effective registration statement (including a Registration
      Statement), or (ii) following a sale or transfer of such Securities pursuant
      to
      Rule 144 (assuming the transferee is not an Affiliate of the Company), or (iii)
      while such Securities are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k). If an Investor
      shall make a sale or transfer of such Securities either (x) pursuant to Rule
      144
      or (y) pursuant to a registration statement and in each case shall have
      delivered to the Company or the Company’s transfer agent the certificate
      representing such Securities containing a restrictive legend which are the
      subject of such sale or transfer
      and, in the case of sale pursuant to Rule 144, a representation letter in
      customary form (the
      date of
      such sale or transfer and Underlying Share delivery being the “Share
      Delivery Date”)
      and (1)
      the Company shall fail to deliver or cause to be delivered to such Investor
      a
      certificate representing such Securities that is free from all restrictive
      or
      other legends by the third Trading Day following the Share Delivery Date and
      (2)
      following such third Trading Day after the Share Delivery Date and prior to
      the
      time such Securities are received free from restrictive legends, the Investor,
      or any third party on behalf of such Investor, purchases (in an open market
      transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction
      of a
      sale by the Investor of such Securities (a "Buy-In"),
      then
      the Company shall pay in cash to the Investor (for costs incurred either
      directly by such Investor or on behalf of a third party) the amount by which
      the
      total purchase price paid for Common Stock as a result of the Buy-In (including
      brokerage commissions, if any) exceed the proceeds received by such Investor
      as
      a result of the sale to which such Buy-In relates. The Investor shall provide
      the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Investor in
      respect of the Buy-In.

     

    4.2.  Furnishing
      of Information.
      As long
      as any Investor owns the Securities, the Company covenants to timely file (or
      obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace
      period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof
      pursuant to the Exchange Act. As long as any Investor owns Securities, if the
      Company is not required to file reports pursuant to such laws, it will prepare
      and furnish to the Investors and make publicly available in accordance with
      Rule
      144(c) such information as is required for the Investors to sell the under
      Rule
      144. The Company further covenants that it will take such further action as
      any
      holder of Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from
      time to time to enable such Person to sell the Shares and Warrant Shares without
      registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions
      provided by Rule 144.

     

    4.3.  Integration.
      The
      Company shall not, and shall use its best efforts to ensure that no Affiliate
      of
      the Company shall, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise
      negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in Section 2 of the Securities
      Act) that would be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities in a
      manner that would require the registration under the Securities Act of the
      sale
      of the Securities to the Investors, or that would be integrated with the offer
      or sale of the Securities for purposes of the rules and regulations of any
      Trading Market in a manner that would require stockholder approval of the sale
      of the Securities to the Investors.

      Registrations.

      Company may not file any registration statement (other than on Form S-8) with
      the Commission with respect to any securities of the Company.

      exhibits to filings made in respect of this transaction in accordance with
      periodic filing requirements under the Exchange Act) or any regulatory agency
      or
      Trading Market, without the prior written consent of such Investor, except
      to
      the extent such disclosure is required by law or Trading Market
      regulations.

    4.7.  Indemnification
      of Investors.
      Subject
      to the provisions of this Section 4.7, the Company will indemnify and hold
      each
      Investor and its directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees
      and agents (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a
      Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other
      title), each Person who controls such Investor (within the meaning of Section
      15
      of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors,
      officers, shareholders, agents, members, partners or employees (and any other
      Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles
      notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling
      persons (each, a “Investor
      Party”)
      harmless from any and all actual losses, liabilities, obligations, claims,
      contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts
      paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of
      investigation that any such Investor Party may suffer or incur as a result
      of or
      relating to (a) any breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants
      or agreements made by the Company or the Investors in this Agreement or in
      the
      other Transaction Documents or (b) any action instituted against an Investor,
      or
      any of them or their respective Affiliates, by any stockholder of the Company
      or
      any other person with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by the
      Transaction Documents (unless such action is based upon a breach of such
      Investor’s representations, warranties or covenants under the Transaction). If
      any action shall be brought against any Investor Party in respect of which
      indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Agreement, such Investor Party shall
      promptly notify the Company in writing, and the Company shall have the right
      to
      assume the defense thereof with counsel of its own choosing reasonably
      acceptable to the Investor Party. Any Investor Party shall have the right to
      employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense
      thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense
      of
      such Investor Party except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has
      been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company has
      failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ
      counsel or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of such
      separate counsel, a likelihood of additional defenses available to an Investor
      Party that are not available to the Company or a material conflict on any
      material issue between the position of the Company and the position of such
      Investor Party, in which case the Company shall be responsible for the
      reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one such separate counsel. The
      Company will not be liable to any Investor Party under this Agreement (i) for
      any settlement by a Investor Party effected without the Company’s prior written
      consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (ii) to the
      extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is
      attributable to any Investor Party’s breach of any of the representations,
      warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Investor Party in this
      Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents as determined by a final
      non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

    4.8.  Reimbursement.
      If any
      Investor becomes involved in any capacity in any Proceeding by or against any
      Person (except as a result of (i) Proceedings brought by another Investor
      against such Investor, (ii) sales, pledges, margin sales and similar
      transactions by such Investor to or with any other stockholder or (iii) as
      a
      result of a breach of such Investor’s representations, warranties or covenants
      under the Transaction Documents or any violations by such Investor of state
      or
      federal securities laws or any conduct by such Investor which constitutes fraud,
      gross negligence, willful misconduct or malfeasance), solely as a result of
      such
      Investor’s acquisition of the Securities under this Agreement, the Company will
      reimburse such Investor for its reasonable legal and other expenses (including
      the cost of any investigation, preparation and travel in connection therewith)

    5.2.  Make
      Good Shares. 

     

    (a)  2008
      Make Good.
      The
      Make Good Pledgor agrees that if the Company’s consolidated after tax net income
      for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 calculated under GAAP (before
      adjustments for non-cash and cash charges related to the transactions
      contemplated in the Transaction Documents (including any expenses of the
      exchange transactions between Nice Enterprise and the Company or of offer,
      sale
      and registration for resale of the Securities), and before accounting for the
      impact on net income of any equity incentive options or shares granted (the
      “2008
      Adjusted Income”))
      reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or 10-KSB, as applicable,

      “2008
      Annual Report”)
      is less
      than $10.549 million (the “2008
      Guaranteed ATNI”),
      the
      Make
      Good Pledgor will transfer to each Investor for no additional consideration
      a
      number of shares of Common Stock equal to (($10.549 million - 2008 Adjusted
      Income)/$10.549 million) multiplied by 50% of the Escrow Shares (the
“2008
      Make Good Shares”).
      Should
      the preceding formula yield a number equal to or less than zero, no transfer
      of
      2008 Make Good Shares shall be made to Investors. If the 2008 Annual Report
      indicates that the Company shall have satisfied the 2008 Guaranteed ATNI test
      specified above for such period, then no transfer to Investors of 2008 Make
      Good
      Shares shall be required by this Section
      5.2(a)
      and all
      2008 Make Good Shares deposited with the Make Good Escrow Agent shall be

      contemplated in the Transaction Documents (including any expenses of the
      exchange transactions between Nice Enterprises and the Company or the offer,
      sale and registration for resale of the Securities), and before accounting
      for
      the impact on net income of any equity incentive options or shares granted
      (the
“2009
      Adjusted Income”))
      reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or 10-KSB, as applicable,
      for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, as filed with the Commission (the

      a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the lesser of (1) (($14.268 million

      (the “2009
      Make Good Shares”).
      Should
      the preceding formula yield a number equal to or less than zero, no transfer
      of
      2009 Make Good Shares shall be made to Investors. If the 2009 Annual Report
      indicates that the Company shall have satisfied the 2009 Guaranteed ATNI test
      specified above for such period, then no transfer to Investors of 2009 Make
      Good
      Shares shall be required by this Section
      5.2(b)
      and all
      2009 Make Good Shares deposited with the Make Good Escrow Agent shall be
      returned to the Make Good Pledgor in accordance with the Make Good Escrow
      Agreement. Transfers of 2009 Make Good Shares required under this Section
      5.2(b)
      shall be

      2009 Annual Report is filed with the Commission and otherwise delivered in

    7.4.  Amendments;
      Waivers; No Additional Consideration.
      No
      provision of this Agreement may be waived or amended at or prior to the Closing
      except in a written instrument signed by the Company and each Investor. No
      provision of this Agreement may be waived or amended after the Closing except
      in
      a written instrument signed by the Company and the Investors holding a majority
      of the Shares. No waiver 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 subsequent default or a waiver of any other
      provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission
      of
      either party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise
      of any such right. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Investor
      to
      amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any Transaction
      Document unless the same consideration is also offered to all Investors who
      then
      hold Securities. In the event of any discrepancy between this Agreement and
      the
      Make Good Escrow Agreement, the terms of the Make Good Escrow Agreement shall
      apply to the extent of such discrepancy.

     

    7.5.  Termination.
      This
      Agreement may be terminated prior to Closing:

     

    (a)  by
      written agreement of the Investors and the Company; and

     

    (b)  by
      the
      Company or an Investor (as to itself but no other Investor) upon written notice
      to the other, if the Closing shall not have taken place by 6:30 p.m. Eastern
      time on the Outside Date; provided,
      that
      the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 7.5(b) shall not
      be available to any Person whose failure to comply with its obligations under
      this Agreement has been the cause of or resulted in the failure of the Closing
      to occur on or before such time.

     

    In
      the
      event of a termination pursuant to this Section, the Company shall promptly
      notify all non-terminating Investors. Upon a termination in accordance with
      this
      Section 7.5, the Company and the terminating Investor(s) shall not have any
      further obligation or liability (including as arising from such termination)
      to
      the other and no Investor will have any liability to any other Investor under
      the Transaction Documents as a result therefrom.

     

    7.6.  Construction.
      The
      headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this
      Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions
      hereof. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language
      chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict
      construction will be applied against any party. This Agreement shall be
      construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden
      of
      proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship
      of any provisions of this Agreement or any of the Transaction
      Documents.

    7.7.  Successors
      and Assigns.
      This
      Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and
      their successors and permitted assigns. The Company may not assign this
      Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
      consent of the Investors. Except with respect to Sections 4.15 and 5.2, any
      Investor may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Person
      to whom such Investor assigns or transfers any Shares, provided such transferee
      agrees in writing to be bound, with respect to the transferred Shares, by the
      provisions hereof that apply to the “Investors.”

     

    7.8.  No
      Third-Party Beneficiaries.
      This
      Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
      successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any
      provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, except as otherwise set
      forth
      in Section 4.7 (as to each Investor Party).

     

    7.9.  Governing
      Law.
      All
      questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
      of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance
      with the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to the
      principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all Proceedings
      concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions
      contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents (whether
      brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, employees or
      agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the California Courts. Each party
      hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the
      California Courts for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection
      herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein
      (including with respect to the enforcement of the any of the Transaction
      Documents), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any
      Proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction
      of
      any such California Court, or that such Proceeding has been commenced in an
      improper or inconvenient forum. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives
      personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such
      Proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or
      overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) 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
      contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process
      in any manner permitted by law. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives,
      to
      the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial
      by
      jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or
      the
      transactions contemplated hereby. If either party shall commence a Proceeding
      to
      enforce any provisions of a Transaction Document, then the prevailing party
      in
      such Proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable
      attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation,
      preparation and prosecution of such Proceeding.

     

    7.10.  Survival.
      The
      representations, warranties, agreements and covenants contained herein shall
      survive the Closing and the delivery of the Shares and Warrants.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        34

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    7.11.  Execution.
      This
      Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken
      together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become
      effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to
      the
      other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same
      counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile
      transmission, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of
      the
      party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same
      force and effect as if such facsimile signature page were an original
      thereof.

     

    7.12.  Severability.
      If any
      provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable in any
      respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions
      of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and
      the
      parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision that is
      a
      reasonable substitute therefor, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such
      substitute provision in this Agreement.

     

    7.13.  Rescission
      and Withdrawal Right.
      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in (and without limiting
      any
      similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever any Investor
      exercises a right, election, demand or option under a Transaction Document
      and
      the Company does not timely perform its related obligations within the periods
      therein provided, then such Investor may rescind or withdraw, in its sole
      discretion from time to time upon written notice to the Company, any relevant
      notice, demand or election in whole or in part without prejudice to its future
      actions and rights.

     

    7.14.  Replacement
      of Securities.
      If any
      certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is mutilated, lost, stolen
      or destroyed, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued in exchange and
      substitution for and upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and substitution
      therefor, a new certificate or instrument, but only upon receipt of evidence
      reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction and
      customary and reasonable indemnity, if requested. The applicants for a new
      certificate or instrument under such circumstances shall also pay any reasonable
      third-party costs associated with the issuance of such replacement Securities.
      If a replacement certificate or instrument evidencing any Securities is
      requested due to a mutilation thereof, the Company may require delivery of
      such
      mutilated certificate or instrument as a condition precedent to any issuance
      of
      a replacement.

     

    7.15.  Remedies.
      In
      addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided herein or granted
      by
      law, including recovery of damages, each of the Investors and the Company will
      be entitled to specific performance under the Transaction Documents. The parties
      agree that monetary damages may not be adequate compensation for any loss
      incurred by reason of any breach of obligations described in the foregoing
      sentence and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance
      of
      any such obligation the defense that a remedy at law would be
      adequate.

     

    7.16.  Payment
      Set Aside.
      To the
      extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to any Investor pursuant
      to
      any Transaction Document or an Investor enforces or exercises its rights
      thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement
      or
      exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be
      fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are
      required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee,
      receiver or any other person under any law (including, without limitation,
      any
      bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action),
      then to the extent of any such restoration the obligation or part thereof
      originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full
      force
      and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff
      had not occurred.

     

    
      
         

      

      
        35

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    7.17.  Independent
      Nature of Investors’ Obligations and Rights.
      The
      obligations of each Investor under any Transaction Document are several and
      not
      joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be
      responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other
      Investor under any Transaction Document. The decision of each Investor to
      purchase Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by
      such
      Investor independently of any other Investor. Nothing contained herein or in
      any
      Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto,
      shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association,
      a
      joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the
      Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such
      obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.
      Each
      Investor acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such
      Investor in connection with making its investment hereunder and that no Investor
      will be acting as agent of such Investor in connection with monitoring its
      investment in the Securities or enforcing its rights under the Transaction
      Documents. Each Investor 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 Investor to be joined as an additional party in any
      proceeding for such purpose. The Company acknowledges that each of the Investors
      has been provided with the same Transaction Documents for the purpose of closing
      a transaction with multiple Investors and not because it was required or
      requested to do so by any Investor. Each Investor represents that it has been
      represented by its own separate legal counsel in its review and negotiations
      of
      this Agreement and the Transaction Documents and that it is not relying on
      the
      placement agent or on placement agent’s counsel with respect to the terms,
      negotiation or documentations of this Agreement or the Transaction
      Documents.

     

    7.18.  Limitation
      of Liability.
      Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company acknowledges and
      agrees that the liability of an Investor arising directly or indirectly, under
      any Transaction Document of any and every nature whatsoever shall be satisfied
      solely out of the assets of such Investor, and that no trustee, officer, other
      investment vehicle or any other Affiliate of such Investor or any investor,
      shareholder or holder of shares of beneficial interest of such a Investor shall
      be personally liable for any liabilities of such Investor.
