Based on the consolidated financial condition of the Company as of the Closing Date, after giving effect to the receipt by the Company of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder and the consummation of the Merger, (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).

(m)         No Integrated Offering.   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 of the Company nor solicited any offers to buy any security of the Company under circumstances that would cause the offer of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the 1933 Act or any applicable stockholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and regulations of the Bulletin Board.  No prior offering will impair the exemptions relied upon in this Offering or the Company’s ability to timely comply with its obligations hereunder.  Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates will take any action or suffer any inaction or conduct any offering other than the transactions contemplated hereby that may be integrated with the offer or issuance of the Securities or that would impair the exemptions relied upon in this Offering or the Company’s ability to timely comply with its obligations hereunder.







(n)          No General Solicitation.  Neither the Company, nor any of its Affiliates, nor to its knowledge, any person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D under the 1933 Act) in connection with the offer or sale of the Securities.

Since December 31, 2010, except as disclosed in the Reports, no event or circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to the Company or its businesses, properties, operations or financial condition, that, under applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure or announcement prior to the date hereof by the Company but which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed in the Reports.







(q)          Dilution.   The Company’s executive officers and directors understand the nature of the Securities being sold hereby and recognize that the issuance of the Securities will have a potential dilutive effect on the equity holdings of other holders of the Company’s equity or rights to receive equity of the Company.  The board of directors of the Company has concluded, in its good faith business judgment, that the issuance of the Securities is in the best interests of the Company.  The Company specifically acknowledges that its obligation to issue the Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants 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 or parties entitled to receive equity of the Company.







(r)          No Disagreements with Accountants and Lawyers.

7.           Broker’s Commission/Finder’s Fee. The Company on the one hand, and each Subscriber (for such Subscriber only) on the other hand, agrees to indemnify the other against and hold the other harmless from any and all liabilities to any persons claiming brokerage commissions or similar fees on account of services purported to have been rendered on behalf of the indemnifying party in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and arising out of such party’s actions.  The Company represents that to the best of its knowledge, except as set forth on Schedule 7, there are no parties entitled to receive fees, commissions, finder’s fees, due diligence fees or similar payments in connection with the Offering. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, each Subscriber is providing indemnification only for such Subscriber’s own actions and not for any action of any other Subscriber.  The liability of the Company and each Subscriber’s liability hereunder is several and not joint.







8.           Fees and Expenses.   Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its advisors, counsel, accountants and other experts, if any, and all other expenses, incurred by such party incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents.







9.           Covenants of the Company.  The Company covenants and agrees with the Subscribers as follows:







(a)           Stop Orders.  Subject to the prior notice requirement described in Section 9(n) hereof, the Company will advise the Subscribers, within twenty-four (24) hours after it receives notice of issuance by the Commission, any state securities commission or any other regulatory authority of any stop order or of any order preventing or suspending any offering of any securities of the Company, or of the suspension of the qualification of the Common Stock of the Company for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation of any proceeding for any such purpose.  The Company will not issue any stop transfer order or other order impeding the sale, resale or delivery of any of the Securities, except as may be required by any applicable federal or state securities laws, provided at least five (5) business days prior notice of such instruction, to the extent practicable, is given to the Subscribers so long as the Subscribers hold at least 100,000 shares of Preferred Stock.







(b)           Listing/Quotation.  The Company shall promptly secure the quotation or listing of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares upon each national securities exchange, or automated quotation system upon which the Company’s Common Stock is quoted or listed and upon which such Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares are or become eligible for quotation or listing (subject to official notice of issuance) and shall maintain same so long as any Preferred Stock and Warrants are outstanding.  The Company will maintain the quotation or listing of its Common Stock on the NYSE Amex Equities, Nasdaq Capital Market, Nasdaq Global Market, Nasdaq Global Select Market, Bulletin Board, or New York Stock Exchange (whichever of the foregoing is at the time the principal trading exchange or market for the Common Stock) (the “Principal Market”), and will comply in all respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Principal Market, as applicable. Subject to the limitation set forth in Section 9(n) hereof, the Company will provide the Subscribers with copies of all notices it receives notifying the Company of the threatened and actual delisting of the Common Stock from any Principal Market.  As of the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, the Bulletin Board is the Principal Market.







(c)           Market Regulations.  If required, the Company shall notify the Commission, the Principal Market and applicable state authorities, in accordance with their requirements, of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall take all other necessary action and proceedings as may be required and permitted by applicable law, rule and regulation, for the legal and valid issuance of the Securities to the Subscribers and promptly provide copies thereof to the Subscribers.






  





 











  








(d)           Filing Requirements.  From the date of this Agreement and until the earlier to occur of (i) all the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares have been resold or transferred by the Subscribers,  (ii) none of the Preferred Stock and Warrants are  outstanding and (iii) the five year anniversary of the date hereof (the date of such first occurrence being the “End Date”), the Company will (A) comply in all respects with its reporting and filing obligations under the 1934 Act, (B) voluntarily comply with all reporting requirements that are applicable to an issuer with a class of shares registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the 1934 Act even if the Company is not subject to such reporting requirements sufficient to permit the Subscribers to be able to resell the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144(b)(i) and (C) comply with all requirements related to any registration statement filed pursuant to this Agreement.  The Company will use its commercially reasonable best efforts not to take any action or file any document (whether or not permitted by the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act or the rules thereunder) to terminate or suspend such registration or to terminate or suspend its reporting and filing obligations under said acts until the End Date.  Until the End Date, the Company will continue the listing or quotation of the Common Stock on a Principal Market and will comply in all respects with the Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of the Principal Market.  The Company agrees to timely file a Form D with respect to the Securities if required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to each Subscriber promptly after such filing.







(e)           Use of Proceeds.   The proceeds of the Offering will be substantially employed by the Company for the purposes set forth on Schedule 9(e) hereto.  Except as described on Schedule 9(e), the Purchase Price may not and will not be used for accrued and unpaid officer and director salaries, nor payment of financing related debt nor redemption of outstanding notes or equity instruments of the Company nor non-trade payables outstanding on the Closing Date.







(f)           Reservation.   Prior to the Closing, the Company undertakes to reserve on behalf of the Subscribers from its authorized but unissued Common Stock, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 125% of the amount of Common Stock necessary to allow the Subscribers to be able to convert all of the Preferred Stock and dividends and 100% of the amount of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (“Required Reservation”).  Failure to have sufficient shares reserved pursuant to this Section 9(f) at any time prior to the End Date shall be a material default of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement and an Event of Default as employed in the Certificate of Designation.  Without waiving the foregoing requirement, if at any time the Preferred Stock and Warrants are outstanding the Company has reserved on behalf of the Subscribers less than the Required Reservation, the Company will promptly take all action necessary to increase its authorized capital to be able to fully satisfy its reservation requirements hereunder, including the filing of a preliminary proxy with the Commission not later than fifteen (15) days after the first day the Company has reserved less than the Required Reservation.  The Company agrees to provide notice to the Subscribers not later than five days after the date the Company has less than the Required Reservation reserved on behalf of the Subscribers.







(g)           DTC Program.  At all times that Preferred Stock or Warrants are outstanding, the Company will employ as the transfer agent for the Common Stock, Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares a participant in the Depository Trust Company Automated Securities Transfer Program and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Common Stock, Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares to be eligible for transfer pursuant to the Depository Trust Company Automated Securities Transfer Program.







(h)           Taxes.  From the date of this Agreement and until the End Date, the Company will promptly pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, when due and payable, all lawful taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon the income, profits, property or business of the Company; provided, however, that any such tax, assessment, charge or levy need not be paid if the validity thereof shall currently be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and if the Company shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto, and provided, further, that the Company will pay all such taxes, assessments, charges or levies forthwith upon the commencement of proceedings to foreclose any lien which may have attached as security therefore.






  





 











  








(i)            Insurance.  As reasonably necessary as determined by the Company, from the date of this Agreement and until the End Date, the Company will keep its assets which are of an insurable character insured by financially sound and reputable insurers against loss or damage by fire, explosion and other risks customarily insured against by companies in the Company’s line of business and location, in amounts and to the extent and in the manner customary for companies in similar businesses similarly situated and located and to the extent available on commercially reasonable terms.







(j)            Books and Records.  From the date of this Agreement and until the End Date, the Company will keep true records and books of account in which full, true and correct entries in all material respects will be made of all dealings or transactions in relation to its business and affairs in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis.







(k)           Governmental Authorities.   From the date of this Agreement and until the End Date, the Company shall duly observe and conform in all material respects to all valid requirements of governmental authorities relating to the conduct of its business or to its properties or assets.







(l)            Intellectual Property.  From the date of this Agreement and until the End Date, the Company shall maintain in full force and effect its corporate existence, rights and franchises and all licenses and other rights to use intellectual property owned or possessed by it and reasonably deemed to be necessary to the conduct of its business, unless it is sold for value.  Schedule 9(l) hereto identifies all of the intellectual property owned by the Company and the Subsidiaries, which schedule includes, but is not limited to, patents, patents pending, patent applications, trademarks, tradenames, service marks and copyrights.







(m)           Properties.  From the date of this Agreement and until the End Date, the Company will keep its properties in good repair, working order and condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and from time to time make all necessary and proper repairs, renewals, replacements, additions and improvements thereto as the Company shall reasonably determine; and the Company will at all times comply with each provision of all leases and claims to which it is a party or under which it occupies or has rights to property if the breach of such provision could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The Company will not abandon any of its assets, except for those assets which have negligible or marginal value are obsolete or for which it is prudent to do so under the circumstances as reasonably determined by the Company.







(n)           Confidentiality/Public Announcement.   From the date of this Agreement  until the End Date, the Company agrees that except in connection with a Form 8-K, Form 10-Q, Form 10-K and the registration statement or statements regarding the Subscribers’ Securities or in correspondence with the Commission regarding same, it will not disclose publicly or privately the identity of a Subscriber unless expressly agreed to in writing by such Subscriber or only to the extent required by law and then only upon not less than two (2) business days prior notice to such Subscriber.  The Company will specifically disclose in the Super 8-K the amount of Common Stock to be outstanding immediately after the Closing.  Upon  delivery by the Company to the Subscribers after the Closing Date of any notice or information, in writing, electronically or otherwise, and while any Securities are held by the Subscribers, unless the  Company has in good faith determined that the matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or the Subsidiaries, the Company  shall, within four (4) days after any such delivery, publicly disclose such  material,  nonpublic  information on a Report on Form 8-K.  In the event that the Company believes that a notice or communication to the Subscribers contains material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or the Subsidiaries, except as required to be delivered in connection with this Agreement, the Company shall so indicate to the Subscribers prior to delivery of such notice or information.  A Subscriber will be granted one (1) business day to notify the Company that such Subscriber elects not to receive such information.   In the case that a Subscriber elects not to receive such information, the Company will not deliver such information to such Subscriber.  In the absence of any such Company indication, the Subscribers shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating to such notice and information do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or the Subsidiaries.






  





 











  








(o)           Non-Public Information.  The Company covenants and agrees that except for the Reports, Other Written Information and schedules and exhibits to this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, which information the Company undertakes to publicly disclose on the Form 8-K described in Section 9(n) above, neither it nor any other person acting on its behalf will at any time provide any Subscriber or its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Subscriber, its agent or counsel shall have agreed in writing to accept such information as described in Section 9(n) above.  The Company understands and confirms that the Subscribers shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.  The Company agrees that any information known to Subscriber required to be make public by the Company but not made public by the Company, not already made public by the Company may be made public and disclosed by the Subscriber.







(p)           Negative Covenants.   Until 90 days following such date that all of the Registrable Securities (as defined below) are either included for resale in an effective registration statement or are eligible for resale without restriction pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1)(i) of the Securities Act, or a combination thereof (the “Covenant Period”), without the consent of the Subscribers, the Company will not and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to directly or indirectly:







(i)           amend its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or its charter documents so as to materially and adversely affect any rights of the Subscribers; or







(ii)           engage in any transactions with any officer, director, employee or any Affiliate of the Company, 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 $120,000, other than (i) for payment of salary or fees for services rendered, pursuant to and on the terms of a written contract in effect at least one (1) business day prior to the Closing Date, a copy of which has been provided to the Subscriber at least one (1) business day prior to the Closing Date, (ii) reimbursement for authorized expenses incurred on behalf of the Company or its Affiliates, (iii) for other employee benefits, including stock option agreements under any stock option plan of the Company disclosed in the Reports or (iv) other transactions disclosed in the Reports.


 


(q)           Offering Restrictions.   Subject to the consent of the Subscribers during the Covenant Period, the Company will not enter into or exercise any Equity Line of Credit (as defined herein) or similar agreement, nor issue nor agree to issue any floating or Variable Priced Equity Linked Instruments (as defined herein) nor any of the foregoing or equity with price reset rights (collectively, the “Variable Rate Restrictions”).   For purposes hereof, “Equity Line of Credit” shall include any transaction involving a written agreement between the Company and an investor or underwriter whereby the Company has the right to “put” its securities to the investor or underwriter over an agreed period of time and at a price formula, and “Variable Priced Equity Linked Instruments” shall include: (A) any debt or equity securities which are convertible into, exercisable or exchangeable for, or carry the right to receive additional shares of Common Stock either (1) at any conversion, exercise or exchange rate or other price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of or quotations for Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or (2) with a fixed conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security due to a change in the market price of the Company’s Common Stock since date of initial issuance, and (B) any amortizing convertible security which amortizes prior to its maturity date, where the Company is required or has the option to (or any investor in such transaction has the option to require the Company to) make such amortization payments in shares of Common Stock which are valued at a price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of or quotations for Common Stock at any time after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security (whether or not such payments in stock are subject to certain equity conditions).






  





 











  








(r)           Notices.   For so long as the Subscribers hold any Preferred Stock or Warrants, the Company will maintain a United States address and United States fax number for notice purposes under the Transaction Documents.







(s)           Notice of Event of Default.  The Company agrees to notify Subscriber of the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined and employed in the Transaction Documents) not later than five (5) business days after any of the Company’s officers or directors becomes aware of such Event of Default.







(t)           Further Registration Statements.   Except for a registration statement filed on behalf of the Subscribers, the Company will not, without the consent of the Subscribers, file with the Commission or with state regulatory authorities any registration statement, including a registration statement on Form S-8, or amend any already filed registration statement to increase the amount of Common Stock registered therein, or reduce the price of which securities of the Company are registered therein, until the expiration of the Covenant Period.  The Covenant Period under the Section 9(t) will be tolled during the pendency of an Event of Default, as defined in the Certificate of Designation.







10.          Covenants of the Company Regarding Indemnification.







(a)           The Company agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Subscribers, the Subscribers’ officers, directors, agents, counsel, Affiliates, members, managers, control persons, and principal shareholders, against any claim, cost, expense, liability, obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed upon the Subscribers or any such person which results, arises out of or is based upon (i) any material misrepresentation by the Company or breach of any representation or warranty by the Company in this Agreement or in any Exhibits or Schedules attached hereto in any Transaction Document, or other agreement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, now or after the date hereof; or (ii) after any applicable notice and/or cure periods, any breach or default in performance by the Company of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by the Company hereunder, or any other agreement entered into by the Company and Subscribers relating hereto.







(b)           In no event shall the liability of the Subscribers or permitted successor hereunder or under any Transaction Document or other agreement delivered in connection herewith be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds actually received by such Subscriber or successor upon the sale of Registrable Securities (as defined herein).







11.1.       Registration Rights.  The Company hereby grants the following registration rights to holders of the Securities.






  





 











  








(i)           On one occasion, commencing ninety one (91) days after the Closing Date, but not later than two years after the Closing Date, upon a written request therefor from any Subscriber or Subscribers of more than 50% of the Conversion Shares issued and issuable upon conversion of the outstanding Preferred Stock and outstanding Warrant Shares, the Company shall prepare and not later than sixty (60) days after such request (“Filing Date”) file, subject to Section 11.1(iv) hereof, with the Commission a registration statement under the 1933 Act registering the Registrable Securities (as defined below) which are the subject of such request, subject to applicable Commission rules and regulations, for unrestricted public resale by the holder thereof.  For purposes of Sections 11.1(i) and 11.1(ii) hereof, the definition of Registrable Securities shall not include Securities (A) which are registered for resale in an effective registration statement, (B) which are included for registration in a pending registration statement, (C) which have been issued without further transfer restrictions after a sale or transfer pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act or (D) which may be resold under Rule 144 without volume limitations but not giving effect to the cashless exercise feature of the Warrants.  Upon the receipt of such written request, the Company shall promptly give written notice to all other Subscribers (as of the date of delivery of such written notice) of the Registrable Securities that such registration statement is to be filed and shall include in such registration statement Registrable Securities for which it has received written requests within ten (10) days after the Company gives such written notice.  Such other requesting Subscribers shall be deemed to have exercised their demand registration right under this Section 11.1(i).  “Registrable Securities” shall mean 120% of the Conversion Shares and 100% of the Warrant Shares issuable upon complete conversion of the Preferred Stock and Warrants issued in the Offering.







(ii)           If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its securities under the 1933 Act for sale to the public, whether for its own account or for the account of other security holders or both, except with respect to registration statements on Forms S-4, S-8 or another form not available for registering the Registrable Securities for sale to the public, provided the Registrable Securities are not otherwise registered for resale by the Subscribers pursuant to an effective registration statement, each such time it will give at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Subscribers (as of the date of delivery of such written notice) of its intention so to do. Upon the written request of any Subscriber that is received by the Company within ten (10) days after the giving of any such notice by the Company to register any of the Registrable Securities held by such Subscriber not previously registered, the Company will cause such Registrable Securities as to which registration shall have been so requested to be included with the securities to be covered by the registration statement proposed to be filed by the Company, all to the extent required to permit the sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities so registered by such Subscriber (each, a “Seller” and together, the “Sellers”). In the event that any registration pursuant to this Section 11.1(ii) shall be, in whole or in part, an underwritten public offering of common stock of the Company, the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be included in such an underwriting may be reduced on a pro rata basis among the Subscribers so requesting registration by the managing underwriter if and to the extent that the Company and the underwriter shall reasonably be of the opinion that such inclusion would adversely affect the marketing of the securities to be sold by the Company therein; provided, however, that the Company shall notify the Seller in writing of any such reduction. Unless the Subscriber notifies the Company in writing that it elects to deem the registration statement filed or to be filed pursuant to this Section 11.1(ii) as a registration statement filed or to be filed pursuant to Section 11.1(ii), the Company may withdraw or delay or suffer a delay of any registration statement referred to in this Section 11.1(ii) without thereby incurring any liability to the Sellers.







(iii)           If, at the time any written request for registration is received by the Company pursuant to Section 11.1(i) hereof, the Company has determined to proceed with the actual preparation and filing of a registration statement under the 1933 Act in connection with the proposed offer and sale for cash of any of its securities for the Company’s own account and the Company actually does file such other registration statement, such written request shall be deemed to have been given pursuant to Section 11.1(ii) rather than Section 11.1(i), and the rights of the holders of Registrable Securities covered by such written request shall be governed by Section 11.1(ii).







11.2.       Registration Procedures. If and whenever the Company is required by the provisions of Section 11.1 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the 1933 Act, the Company will, as expeditiously as possible:






  





 











  








(a)           subject to the timelines provided in this Agreement, (i) prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement required by Section 11.1 with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become and remain effective for the period of the distribution contemplated thereby (determined as herein provided), (ii) promptly provide to the holders of the Registrable Securities copies of all filings and Commission letters of comment and notify the Sellers (by telecopier and by e-mail addresses provided by the Subscribers) on or before the second (2nd) business days thereafter that the Company receives notice that (A) the Commission has no comments or no further comments on the registration statement, and (B) the registration statement has been declared effective (failure to timely provide notice as required by this Section 11.2(a) shall be a material breach of the Company’s obligation and an Event of Default as defined in the Preferred Stock and a Non-Registration Event as defined in Section 11.4 of this Agreement);







(b)           prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement effective until such registration statement has been effective for a period of one (1) year, and comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement in accordance with the Sellers’ intended method of disposition set forth in such registration statement for such period;







(c)           furnish to the Sellers, at the Company’s expense, such number of copies of the registration statement and the prospectus included therein (including each preliminary prospectus) as such persons reasonably may request in order to facilitate the public sale or their disposition of the securities covered by such registration statement, or make them electronically available;







(d)           use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement under the securities or “blue sky” laws of New York and such jurisdictions as the Sellers shall reasonably request in writing, provided, however, that the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to transact business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified or to consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction;







(e)           as applicable, list or make available for quotation the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement with any securities exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock of the Company is then listed or quoted;







(f)           notify the Sellers within two (2) business days of the happening of any event of which the Company has knowledge as a result of which the prospectus contained in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing, or which becomes subject to a Commission, state or other governmental order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement covering any of the Registrable Securities; and







(g)           provide to the Sellers copies of the registration statement and amendments thereto at least two (2) days prior to the filing thereof with the Commission.  A Seller’s failure to comment on any registration statement or other document provided to a Subscriber or its counsel shall be construed to constitute approval thereof nor the accuracy thereof.







11.3.       Provision of Documents.  In connection with each registration described in this Section 11, each Seller will furnish to the Company in writing such information and representation letters with respect to itself and the proposed distribution by it as reasonably shall be necessary in order to assure compliance with federal and applicable state securities laws.






  





 











  








11.4.        Non-Registration Events.  The Company agrees that the Sellers will suffer damages if any registration statement required under Section 11.1(i) or 11.1(ii) is not filed within sixty (60) days after written request and declared effective by the Commission within one hundred eighty (180) days after such request, and maintained in the manner and within the time periods contemplated by Section 11 hereof, and it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision.  Accordingly, if (A) if the registration statement described in Section 11.1(i) or 11.1(ii) is not filed within sixty (60) days after such written request, or is not declared effective within one hundred eighty (180) days after such written request, or (B) any registration statement described in Sections 11.1(i) or 11.1(ii) is filed and declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be effective without being succeeded within thirty (30) business days by an effective replacement or amended registration statement or for a period of time which shall exceed sixty (60) days in the aggregate per year (defined as every rolling period of 365 consecutive days commencing on the actual effective date of such registration statement) (each such event referred to in clauses A and B of this Section 11.4 is referred to herein as a “Non-Registration Event”), then the Company shall pay to the holder of Registrable Securities, as “Liquidated Damages”, an amount equal to one percent (1%) for each thirty (30) days (or such lesser pro-rata amount for any period of less than thirty (30) days) of the (i) purchase price of the outstanding Preferred Stock and (ii) purchase price of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares issued upon conversion of Preferred Stock and exercise of Warrants held by Subscribers which are subject to such Non-Registration Event; provided, however that the Company shall not be required to pay any Liquidated Damages to any Subscriber pursuant to this Section 11.4 in excess of  four percent (4%) of a Subscriber’s aggregate Purchase Price hereunder.  The Company must pay the Liquidated Damages in cash.  The Liquidated Damages must be paid within ten (10) business days after the end of each thirty (30) day period or shorter part thereof for which Liquidated Damages are payable.  In the event a registration statement but is withdrawn prior to being declared effective by the Commission, then such Registration Statement will be deemed to have not been filed and Liquidated Damages will be calculated accordingly. Liquidated Damages shall not be payable pursuant to this Section 11.4 in connection with Registrable Securities for such times as such Registrable Securities may be sold by the holder thereof without volume limitations or other restrictions pursuant to Section 144(b)(1)(i) of the 1933 Act.  The Company may require, from time to time, information from a holder of the Securities that is necessary to complete the registration statement in accordance with the requirements of the 1933.  In the event of the failure by such holder to comply with the Company’s request within fifteen (15) business days from the date of such request, the Company shall be permitted to exclude such holder from a registration statement without being subject to the payment of any amount of Liquidated Damages to such holder.  At such time that such holder complies with the Company’s request, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to include such holder in the registration statement.







11.5.       Expenses.  All expenses incurred by the Company in complying with Section 11, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, printing expenses (if required), fees and disbursements of Company counsel and independent public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or “blue sky” laws, fees of FINRA, and fees of transfer agents and registrars are herein called “Registration Expenses.” All underwriting discounts, selling commissions and transfer applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities are herein called “Selling Expenses.”  The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any registration statement described in Section 11.  Selling Expenses in connection with each such registration statement shall be borne by the Seller and may be apportioned among the Sellers in proportion to the number of shares included on behalf of the Seller relative to the aggregate number of shares included under such registration statement for all Sellers, or as all Sellers thereunder may agree.






  





 











  








11.6.       Indemnification and Contribution.







(a)           In the event of a registration of any Registrable Securities under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 11, the Company will, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Seller and each of the officers, directors, agents, Affiliates, members, managers, control persons, and principal shareholders of the Seller, each underwriter of such Registrable Securities thereunder and each other person, if any, who controls such Seller or underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Seller or  person may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement under which such Registrable Securities was registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 11, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances when made, and will, subject to the provisions of Section 11.6(c), reimburse such Seller for any reasonable legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to the Seller to the extent that any such damages arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus if (i) the Seller failed to send or deliver a copy of the final prospectus delivered by the Company to the Seller with or prior to the delivery of written confirmation of the sale by the Seller to the person asserting the claim from which such damages arise, (ii) the final prospectus would have corrected such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or such omission or alleged omission, or (iii) to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity with information furnished by any such Seller in writing specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus.







(b)           In the event of a registration of any of the Registrable Securities under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 11, each Seller, severally but not jointly, will, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act, each officer of the Company who signs the registration statement, each director of the Company, each underwriter and each person who controls any underwriter within the meaning of the 1933 Act, against all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such officer, director, underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement under which such Registrable Securities were registered under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 11, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and each such officer, director, underwriter and controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Seller will be liable hereunder in any such case if and only to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information pertaining to such Seller, as such, furnished in writing to the Company by such Seller specifically for use in such registration statement or prospectus, and provided, further, however, that the liability of the Seller hereunder shall be limited to the net proceeds actually received by the Seller from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement.






  





 











  








           (c)           Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party in writing thereof, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party other than under this Section 11.6(c), and shall only relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party under this Section 11.6(c), except and only if and to the extent the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such omission. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and undertake the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to so assume and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 11.6(c) for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of liaison with counsel so selected, provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be reasonable defenses available to indemnified party which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or if the interests of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests of the indemnifying party, the indemnified parties, as a group, shall have the right to select one separate counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified and indemnifying party, and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to participate in the defense of such action, with the reasonable expenses and fees of such separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred.







(d)           In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in the event of joint liability under the 1933 Act in any case in which either (i) a Seller, or any controlling person of a Seller, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 11.6 but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 11.6 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the 1933 Act may be required on the part of the Seller or controlling person of the Seller in circumstances for which indemnification is not provided under this Section 11.6, then, and in each such case, the Company and the Seller will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion so that the Seller is responsible only for the portion represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its securities offered by the registration statement bears to the public offering price of all securities offered by such registration statement, provided, however, that, in any such case, (y) the Seller will not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such securities sold by it pursuant to such registration statement; and (z) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation; and provided, further, however, that the liability of the Seller hereunder shall be limited to the net proceeds actually received by the Seller from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such registration statement.







11.7.      Unlegended Shares and 144 Sales.







(a)           Delivery of Unlegended Shares.  Within five (5) days (such fifth (5th) day being the “Unlegended Shares Delivery Date”) after the day on which the Company has received (i) a notice that Conversion Shares, Warrant Shares or any other Common Stock held by Subscriber has been sold pursuant to a registration statement or Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, (ii) a representation that the prospectus delivery requirements, or the requirements of Rule 144, as applicable and if required, have been satisfied, (iii) the original share certificates representing the shares of Common Stock that have been sold, and (iv) in the case of sales under Rule 144, customary representation letters of Subscriber and, if required, Subscriber’s broker regarding compliance with the requirements of Rule 144, the Company, at its expense, (y) shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver to its transfer agent (with copies to Subscriber) an appropriate instruction directing the delivery of shares of Common Stock without any legends including the legend set forth in Section 4(h) above (the “Unlegended Shares”); and (z) cause the transmission of the certificates representing the Unlegended Shares, together with a legended certificate representing the balance of the submitted Common Stock certificate, if any, to Subscriber at the address specified in the notice of sale, via express courier, by electronic transfer or otherwise on or before the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date.






  





 











  








(b)           DWAC.   In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Unlegended Shares, upon request of the Subscribers, so long as the certificates therefor do not bear a legend, the Common Stock is eligible for electronic transfer through the Depository Trust Company, and the Subscriber is not obligated to return such certificate for the placement of a legend thereon, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Unlegended Shares by crediting the account of Subscriber’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system.  Such delivery must be made on or before the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date.







(c)           Late Delivery of Unlegended Shares.   The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 11.7 hereof later than the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date could result in economic loss to a Subscriber.  As compensation to a Subscriber for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payment fees (as liquidated damages and not as a penalty) to Subscriber for late delivery of Unlegended Shares in the amount of $100 per business day after the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date for each $10,000 of purchase price of the Unlegended Shares, subject to the delivery default; provided that such delay is not the direct or indirect result of Subscriber’s actions or omissions.  If during any three hundred sixty (360) day period, the Company fails to deliver Unlegended Shares as required by this Section 11.7 for an aggregate of thirty (30) days, then each Subscriber or assignee holding Securities subject to such default may, at its option, require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Unlegended Shares subject to such default at a price per share equal to the greater of (i) 120% of the Purchase Price paid by Subscriber for the Unlegended Shares that were not timely delivered, or (ii) a fraction in which the numerator is the highest closing price of the Common Stock during the aforedescribed thirty day period and the denominator of which is the lowest conversion price or exercise price, as the case may be, during such thirty (30) day period, multiplied by the price paid by Subscriber for such Common Stock (“Unlegended Redemption Amount”).  The Company shall promptly pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand.







(d)           Injunction.  In the event a Subscriber shall request delivery of Unlegended Shares as described in Section 11 and the Company is required to deliver such Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 11.7, the Company may not refuse to deliver Unlegended Shares based on any claim that such Subscriber or any one associated or affiliated with such Subscriber has not complied with Subscriber’s obligations under the Transaction Documents, or for any other reason, unless, an injunction or temporary restraining order from a court, on notice, restraining and or enjoining delivery of such Unlegended Shares shall have been sought and obtained by the Company and the Company has posted a surety bond for the benefit of such Subscriber in the amount of the greater of (i) 120% of the amount of the aggregate purchase price of the Common Stock which is subject to the injunction or temporary restraining order, (ii) the closing price of the Common Stock on the trading day before the issue date of the injunction multiplied by the number of Unlegended Shares to be subject to the injunction, which bond shall remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Subscriber to the extent Subscriber obtains judgment in Subscriber’s favor.






  





 











  








(e)           Buy-In.   In addition to any other rights available to Subscriber, if the Company fails to deliver to Subscriber Unlegended Shares as required pursuant to this Agreement and after the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date Subscriber, or a broker on Subscriber’s behalf, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of common stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Subscriber of the shares of Common Stock which Subscriber was entitled to receive from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall promptly pay in cash to Subscriber (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by Subscriber) the amount by which (A) Subscriber’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of common stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate purchase price of the shares of Common Stock delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares together with interest thereon at a rate of 15% per annum accruing until such amount and any accrued interest thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty).  For purposes of illustration only, if Subscriber purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to $10,000 of purchase price of shares of Common Stock delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares, the Company shall be required to pay the Subscriber $1,000, plus interest. Subscriber shall promptly provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to Subscriber in respect of the Buy-In, including, evidence regarding the purchase of common stock for which the Buy-In is implemented.







                                (f)           144 Default.   At any time commencing twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, in the event Subscriber is not permitted to sell any of the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares without any restrictive legend, or if such sales are permitted but subject to volume limitations or further restrictions on resale as a result of the unavailability to Subscriber of Rule 144(b)(1)(i) under the 1933 Act or any successor rule (a “144 Default”), for any reason, including, but not limited to, failure by the Company to file quarterly, annual or any other filings required to be made by the Company by the required filing dates (provided that any filing made within the time for a valid extension shall be deemed to have been timely filed), or the Company’s failure to make information publicly available which would allow Subscriber’s reliance on Rule 144 in connection with sales of Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares, except due to a change in current applicable securities laws or because Subscriber is an Affiliate (as defined under Rule 144) of the Company, then the Company shall pay such Subscriber as liquidated damages and not as a penalty for each thirty (30) days (or such lesser pro-rata amount for any period less than thirty (30) days) an amount equal to one percent (1.0%) of the purchase price of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares (which could be issued on a cashless basis pursuant to Section 2 of the Warrant) which is subject to such 144 Default; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any liquidated damages to any Subscriber pursuant to this Section 11.7(f) in excess of 4% of such Subscriber’s aggregate Purchase Price hereunder. Liquidated damages shall not be payable pursuant to this Section 11.7(f) in connection with Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares for such times as such shares may be sold by the holder thereof without any legend or volume or other restrictions pursuant to Section 144(b)(1)(i) of the 1933 Act or pursuant to an effective registration statement.






  





 











  








12.           (a)           Favored Nations Provision.  Other than in connection with (i) full or partial consideration in connection with a strategic merger, acquisition, consolidation or purchase of substantially all of the securities or assets of a corporation or other entity, so long as such issuances are not for the purpose of raising capital and which holders of such securities or debt are not at any time granted registration rights, (ii) the Company’s issuance of securities in connection with strategic license agreements and other partnering arrangements, so long as such issuances are not for the purpose of raising capital and which holders of such securities or debt are not at any time granted registration rights, (iii) the Company’s issuance of Common Stock or the issuances or grants of options to purchase Common Stock to employees, directors, and consultants, pursuant to plans described on Schedule 5(d) in effect on the Closing Date, (iv) securities upon the exercise or exchange of or conversion of any securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date of this Agreement on the terms disclosed in the Reports and which securities are also described on Schedule 12(a), and (v) as a result of the exercise of Warrants or conversion of Preferred Stock which are granted or issued pursuant to this Agreement on the unamended terms in effect on the Closing Date, (collectively, the foregoing (i) through (v) are “Excepted Issuances”), if at any time the Preferred Stock or Warrants are outstanding, the Company shall agree to or issue (the “Lower Price Issuance”) any Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock (or modify any of the foregoing which may be outstanding) to any Person at a price per share or conversion or exercise price per share which shall be less than the Conversion Price in effect at such time or the Warrant exercise price in effect at such time, as applicable, without the consent of the Subscribers, then the Conversion Price and Warrant exercise price, as applicable, shall automatically be reduced to such other lower price.  The average Conversion Price of the Conversion Shares and average exercise price in relation to the Warrant Shares shall be calculated separately for the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares.  Common Stock issued or issuable by the Company for no consideration or for consideration that cannot be determined at the time of issue will be deemed issuable or to have been issued for $0.001 per share of Common Stock.  For purposes of the issuance and adjustments described in this paragraph, the issuance of any security of the Company carrying the right to convert such security into shares of Common Stock or any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in the issuance of the additional shares of Common Stock upon the sooner of (A) the agreement to or (B) actual issuance of such convertible security, warrant, right or options and again at any time upon any subsequent issuances of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights if such issuance is at a price lower than the Conversion Price or Warrant exercise price, as applicable, in effect upon such issuance.  A convertible instrument (including a right to purchase equity of the Company) issued, subject to an original issue or similar discount or which principal amount is directly or indirectly increased after issuance will be deemed to have been issued for the actual cash amount received by the Company in consideration of such convertible instrument.  The rights of the Subscribers set forth in this Section 12 are in addition to any other rights the Subscribers have pursuant to this Agreement, the Preferred Stock, Warrants or any other Transaction Document.  The provisions of this Section 12(a) shall no longer apply following the Covenant Period.







(b)           Right of Participation.  Until one (1) year following the Closing Date, the Subscribers shall be given not less than fifteen (15) days prior written notice of any proposed sale by the Company of its Common Stock or other securities or equity linked debt obligations (“Other Offering”), except in connection with the Excepted Issuances.  If the Subscribers elect to exercise their rights pursuant to this Section 12(b), the Subscribers shall have the right during the fifteen (15) days following receipt of the notice, to purchase in the aggregate up to one-half (1/2) of such offered Common Stock, debt or other securities in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the notice of sale, relative to each other in proportion to the amount of Preferred Stock issued to them on the Closing Date.  Subscribers who participate in such Other Offering shall be entitled at their option to purchase, in proportion to each other, the amount of such Other Offering that could have been purchased by Subscribers who do not exercise their rights hereunder until up to one-half (1/2) of the Other Offering is purchased by the Subscribers.  In the event such terms and conditions are modified during the notice period, Subscribers shall be given prompt notice of such modification and shall have the right during the fifteen (15) days following the notice of modification to exercise such right.







(c)           Maximum Exercise of Rights.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the exercise of the rights described in Section 12(a) and Section 12(b) would or could result in the issuance of an amount of Common Stock of the Company that would exceed the maximum amount that may be issued to a Subscriber as described in Section 2D of the Certificate of Designation and Section 9 of the Warrant, then the issuance of such additional shares of Common Stock of the Company to such Subscriber will be deferred in whole or in part until such time as such Subscriber informs the Company that such Subscriber is able to beneficially own such Common Stock without exceeding the applicable maximum amount set forth and such Subscriber notifies the Company accordingly.

In the event that any term or provision of this Agreement shall be finally determined to be superseded, invalid, illegal or otherwise unenforceable pursuant to applicable law by an authority having jurisdiction and venue, that determination shall not impair or otherwise affect the validity, legality or enforceability: (i) by or before that authority of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement, which shall be enforced as if the unenforceable term or provision were deleted, or (ii) by or before any other authority of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement.






  





 











  








(l)           Successor Laws.  References in the Transaction Documents to laws, rules, regulations and forms shall also include successors to and functionally equivalent replacements of such laws, rules, regulations and forms.  A successor rule to Rule 144(b)(1)(i) shall include any rule that would be available to a non-Affiliate of the Company for the sale of Common Stock not subject to volume restrictions and after a six month holding period.







(m)           Maximum Liability.   In no event shall the liability of the Subscribers or permitted assign hereunder or under any Transaction Document or other agreement delivered in connection herewith be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds actually received by such Subscriber or successor upon the sale of Conversion Shares.







(n)           Independent Nature of Subscribers.     The Company acknowledges that the obligations of each Subscriber under the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Subscriber, and no Subscriber shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Subscriber under the Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges that each Subscriber has represented that the decision of each Subscriber to purchase Securities has been made by such Subscriber independently of any other Subscriber and independently of any information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs, operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company which may have been made or given by any other Subscriber or by any agent or employee of any other Subscriber, and no Subscriber or any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any other Subscriber (or any other person) relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions.  The Company acknowledges that nothing contained in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Subscriber pursuant hereto or thereto shall be deemed to constitute the Subscribers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Subscribers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.  The Company acknowledges that it has elected to provide all Subscribers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company and not because Company was required or requested to do so by the Subscribers.  The Company acknowledges that such procedure with respect to the Transaction Documents in no way creates a presumption that the Subscribers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.







(o)           Equal Treatment.   No consideration shall be offered or paid to any person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration is also offered and paid to all the Subscribers and their permitted successors and assigns.







(p)           Adjustments.   The conversion price, Warrant exercise price, amount of Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares, trading volume amounts, price/volume amounts and similar figures in the Transaction Documents shall be equitably adjusted and as otherwise described in this Agreement, the Certificate of Designation and Warrants.
