     WHEREAS, as security for the Company’s obligations relating to the Loan, the Guarantor (i)
will pledge and assign to the Bank (the “Pledge”) and grant to the Bank a first-priority
security interest in, a investment management account with the Bank having assets of at least
$2,200,000 in value deposited in such account (the “Collateral Account”) and/or (ii)
execute and deliver a guaranty agreement (the “Personal Guaranty”) in favor of the Bank
with a maximum liability to the bank of $2,200,000;



     WHEREAS, the Pledge and Personal Guaranty are in addition to, and not in replacement of, the
pledge and personal guaranty in the amount of $1,100,000 previously made by the Guarantor to secure
the Loan on June 1, 2007;



     WHEREAS, the Pledge and/or the Personal Guaranty is being provided as replacement of $2.2
million of collateral pledged by Magellan Group Investments, LLC to secure the Loan;



     WHEREAS, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Guarantor has agreed to make

     WHEREAS, as consideration for the Guarantor’s agreement to make the payments described above

warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.001 per share (the
“Common Stock”), and (ii) pay certain fees to the Guarantor;



     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto,
the Company and the Guarantor agree as follows:

1. CONSIDERATION.




     1.1 GUARANTEE DOCUMENTS AND PAYMENTS FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE
COMPANY.



     In consideration of the Company’s issuance of the Warrant (as defined in Section 1.2 below)
and payment of the Guarantee Fee (as defined in Section 1.2 below), the Guarantor hereby agrees
that it shall:



          (a) At Closing (as defined in Section 2.1 below), execute and deliver, in favor of the Bank,
whatever documentation (such documentation, the “Guarantee Documents”) the Bank reasonably
requires in connection with the Personal Guaranty and/or the Pledge.



          (b) During the period commencing on the Effective Date and terminating on the date that the
Company’s payment obligations under the Loan are satisfied and/or discharged in full, at least ten
(10) business days prior to the due date for any payment of interest (“Interest Payment”)
or payment of principal (“Principal Payment”) or other payment required to be made by the
Company to the Bank under the Loan, pay the Company or the Bank an amount equal to the product
obtained by multiplying (x) the total amount of the payment then due and (y) the Guaranteed
Percentage (each such payment, a “Guarantor Payment”) provided, that the aggregate
amount of Guarantor Payments shall not exceed $2,200,000. The Guarantor may, at its option, elect
to make Guarantor Payments by drawing, or authorizing the Bank to draw, on the Collateral Account,
if approved by the Bank. The Company shall apply the Guarantor Payment towards an Interest
Payment, Principal Payment or other payment due in connection with the Loan, and shall either
notify the Guarantor in writing of the due date for any such payment, or shall promptly forward to
the Guarantor any correspondence received by the Company from the Bank regarding the amount and due
date of such Interest Payment, Principal Payment or other payment (as applicable). All payments
hereunder shall be made to a specified account of the Company maintained at the Bank.



          (c) The Guarantor hereby authorizes the Company to notify the Bank in the event that the
Guarantor fails to make a Guarantor Payment when due.



     1.2 ISSUANCE OF WARRANTS AND PAYMENT OF MONTHLY FEES



     In consideration of the Guarantor’s issuing the Personal Guaranty and/or the Pledge in favor
of the Bank the Company hereby agrees that it shall:



          (a) At Closing (as defined in Section 2.1 below), issue to the Guarantor a warrant to purchase
an aggregate of 81,547 shares (the “Subject Shares”) of the Common Stock, with an exercise price of
$7.69 per share, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Warrant”). The
Warrant will provide that the number of Subject Shares will increase to 101,934, 135,912 and
203,868, respectively, in the event the Company has not satisfied and/or discharged all of its
payment obligations under this Agreement and the Loan by the June 1, 2008, 2009 and 2010,
respectively.



          (b) Pay the Guarantor a cash fee (the “Guarantee Fee”) in the amount determined by
multiplying $2,200,000 by 5.0% and multiplying the resulting amount by a fraction, the numerator of
which is the number of days elapsed between the date hereof and the earlier of (i) the date the
Company has satisfied and/or discharged all of its payment obligations under the Loan (a “Loan
Satisfaction”) and (ii) February 1, 2008 (or such later date to which the maturity date of the
Note may be extended), and the denominator of which is 365 in accordance with the terms of this
Section 1.2(b). The Company shall pay the Guarantee Fee within five (5) business days of the
Trigger Date (as defined below). For purposes of this Agreement, the “Trigger Date” shall
mean the earliest to occur of: (i) the closing date of an initial public offering of the Company’s
Common Stock generating at least $30 million of net proceeds to the Company occurring on or before
January 31, 2008 (a “Qualified Offering”), and (ii) the date the Company satisfies and/or
discharges all of its payment obligations (a “BlueCrest Loan Satisfaction”)

the date of the BlueCrest Loan (the “Outside Payment Date”), the Company has not
effectuated a BlueCrest Loan Satisfaction or a Qualified Offering:



               (A) the Company shall use its best efforts to effectuate a BlueCrest Loan Satisfaction as soon
as possible following the Outside Payment Date; and



               (B) the Company shall pay the Guarantee Fee no later than five (5) business days following a
