      The Buyer
represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees with, the Company as
follows:

      

      (a) Circumstances of
Purchase.

      The Buyer
is purchasing the Note and acquiring the Warrants for its own account and not
with a view towards the public sale or distribution thereof within the meaning
of the 1933 Act; and the Buyer will acquire any Shares issued to the Buyer prior
to the SEC Effective Date of a Registration Statement covering the resale of
such Shares by the Buyer for its own account and not with a view towards the
public sale or distribution thereof within the meaning of the 1933 Act prior to
such SEC Effective Date; and the Buyer has no intention of making any
distribution, within the meaning of the 1933 Act, of the Shares except in
compliance with the registration requirements of the 1933 Act or pursuant to an
exemption therefrom. The Buyer is acquiring the Securities hereunder in the
ordinary course of its business. 

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -17-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (b) Accredited Investor;
Residence.

      At the
time the Buyer was offered the Securities, it was, and at the date hereof it is,
and on each date on which it exercises any Warrants for cash it will be, an
“accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under
the 1933 Act by reason of Rule 501(a)(3) thereof. The office or offices of the
Buyer in which its investment decision was made is located at the address or
addresses of such Investor set forth on the signature page hereto.

      

      (c) Reoffers and
Resales.

      The Buyer
will not offer, sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of (or solicit any
offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge of) any of the
Securities unless registered under the 1933 Act, pursuant to an exemption from
registration under the 1933 Act or in a transaction not requiring registration
under the 1933 Act; provided,
however, that
the Securities may be pledged in connection with a bona fide margin account or
other loan or financing arrangement secured by the Securities and such pledge of
Securities shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the
Securities prohibited hereby, and in effecting any pledge of Securities the
Buyer shall not be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or
otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document, including, without limitation, this Section 3(c);
provided,
further,
however, the
Buyer acknowledges that in connection with any sale, transfer or assignment by
the pledgee of such Securities, such pledgee may be required by applicable law
to make such sale, transfer or assignment in accordance with, or pursuant to a
registration statement or an exemption under, the 1933 Act.

      

      (d) Company
Reliance.

      The Buyer
understands that (1) the Note is being offered and sold and the Warrants are
being issued to the Buyer, (2) upon conversion of the Note prior to two years
after the Closing Date, the Conversion Shares will be issued to the Buyer upon
such conversion and (3) upon exercise of the Warrants for cash, or upon cashless
exercise of the Warrants prior to two years after the Closing Date, the Warrant
Shares issued upon such exercise will be issued to the Buyer, in each such case
in reliance on one or more exemptions from the registration requirements of the
1933 Act, including, without limitation, Regulation D, and exemptions from state
securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of,
and the Buyer’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements,
acknowledgments and understandings of the Buyer set forth herein in order to
determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Buyer
to acquire or receive an offer to acquire the Securities.

      

      (e) Information
Provided.

      The Buyer
and its advisors, if any, have requested, received and considered all
information relating to the business, properties, operations, condition
(financial or other), results of operations or prospects of the Company and
information relating to the offer and sale of the Note and the offer of the
Warrants deemed relevant by them (assuming the accuracy and completeness of the
SEC Reports and of the Company’s responses to the Buyer’s requests); the Buyer
and its advisors, if any, have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of
the Company concerning the terms of the offering of the Securities and the
business, properties, operations, condition (financial or other), results of
operations and prospects of the Company and the Subsidiaries; without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Buyer has had the opportunity to obtain and
to review the SEC Reports; in connection with its decision to purchase the Note
and to acquire the Warrants, the Buyer has relied solely upon the SEC Reports,
the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company set
forth in this Agreement and to be contained in the other Transaction Documents,
as well as any investigation of the Company completed by the Buyer or its
advisors; the Buyer understands that its investment in the Securities involves a
high degree of risk; and the Buyer understands that the offering of the Note is
being made to the Buyer as part of an offering without any minimum amount of the
offering but subject to a maximum amount of $7 million aggregate principal
amount of the Note and the Other Notes (subject, however, to the right of the
Company at any time prior to execution and delivery of this Agreement by the
Company, in its sole discretion, to accept or reject an offer by the Buyer to
purchase the Note and to acquire the Warrants).

       

       

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -18-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      

      (f) Absence of
Approvals.

      The Buyer
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. 

      

      (g) Note Purchase
Agreement.

      The Buyer
has all requisite power and authority, corporate or otherwise, to execute,
deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other
agreements executed by the Buyer in connection herewith and to consummate the
transactions on the Buyer’s part contemplated hereby and thereby; Buyer is an
entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of
the jurisdiction of its organization; and this Agreement and the Transaction
Documents to which the Buyer is a party have been duly and validly authorized,
duly executed and delivered by the Buyer and, assuming due execution and
delivery by the Company, constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the
Buyer enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as the enforceability
hereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium,
fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating
to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity,
regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at
law.

      

      (h) Buyer
Status.

      The Buyer
is not a “broker” or “dealer” as those terms are defined in the 1934 Act, which
is required to be registered with the SEC pursuant to Section 15 of the 1934
Act.

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -19-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (i) Experience of the
Buyer.

      The
Buyer, either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge,
sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as to be
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the
Securities, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. The
Buyer is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities and,
at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment. The
Buyer has had the opportunity to ask questions of management of the
Company.

      

      (j)) General
Solicitation.

      The
Buyer did not
learn of the offering of the Securities through any public advertising or
general solicitation (as these terms are used in Regulation D).

      

      (k) Short Sales and Confidentiality Prior
To The Date Hereof.

      Other
than the transaction contemplated hereunder, the Buyer has not directly or
indirectly, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any
understanding with the Buyer, executed any disposition, including Short Sales
(but not including the location and/or reservation of borrowable shares of
Common Stock), in the securities of the Company during the period
commencing from the time
that the Buyer
first
received a term sheet from the Company or any other Person setting forth the
material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder until the date hereof
(the
“Discussion Time”).
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the case of a Buyer
that is a
multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage
separate portions of such Buyer's assets
and the portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions
made by the portfolio managers managing other portions of such Buyer'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. Other than to
other Persons party to this Agreement and its professional advisors,
the Buyer
has
maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures made to it in connection with
this transaction (including the existence and terms of this
transaction).

      

      4. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES,
COVENANTS, ETC. OF THE COMPANY.

      

      The
Company represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees with, the Buyer as
follows:

      

      (a) Organization and
Authority.

      The
Company and each of the Subsidiaries is a corporation duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
incorporation, and (i) each of the Company and the Subsidiaries has all
requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties
and to carry on its business as described in the SEC Reports and as currently
conducted, and (ii) the Company has all requisite corporate power and authority
to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and the
other Transaction Documents to be executed and delivered by the Company in
connection herewith, and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby; and the Company does not have any equity investment in any other Person
other than (x) the Subsidiaries listed in the SEC Reports and (y) Subsidiaries
which do not, individually or in the aggregate, have any material revenue,
assets or liabilities.

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -20-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (b) Qualifications.

       The
Company and each of the Subsidiaries are duly qualified to do business as
foreign corporations and are in good standing in all jurisdictions where such
qualification is necessary and where failure so to qualify could have a Material
Adverse Effect.

      

      (c) Concerning the Shares and the Common
Stock.

      The
Shares have been duly authorized and the Conversion Shares, when issued upon
conversion of the Note, and the Warrant Shares, when issued upon exercise of the
Warrants, in each such case will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable and will not subject the holder thereof to personal liability by
reason of being such holder. There are no unwaived preemptive or similar rights
of any stockholder of the Company or any other Person to acquire any of the
Securities issued or to be issued to the Buyer. The Company has duly reserved
[40,000,000] shares of Common Stock exclusively for issuance upon conversion of
the Note and the Other Notes and exercise of the Warrants and the Other
Warrants, and such shares shall remain so reserved, and the Company shall from
time to time reserve such additional shares of Common Stock as shall be required
to be reserved pursuant to the Note, the Other Notes and the Warrants, so long
as the Note, the Other Notes or the Warrants are outstanding. The Common Stock
is listed for trading on the AMEX and, except as described on Schedule 4(c), (1)
the Company and the Common Stock meet the criteria for continued listing and
trading on the AMEX; (2) the Company has not been notified since December 31,
2004 by the AMEX of any failure or potential failure to meet the criteria for
continued listing and trading on the AMEX and (3) no suspension of trading in
the Common Stock is in effect. Except as described on Schedule 4(c), the
Company knows of no reason that the Shares will not be eligible for listing on
the AMEX. The Company acknowledges that the Securities may be pledged in
connection with a bona fide margin account or other loan or financing
arrangement secured by the Securities and such pledge of Securities shall not be
deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Securities hereunder, and the
Buyer shall not be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or
otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document; provided, however, that in
order to make any sale, transfer or assignment of Securities in connection with
a foreclosure or realization on such pledge, the Buyer or its pledgee shall make
such disposition in accordance with, or pursuant to a registration statement or
an exemption under, the 1933 Act.

      

      (d) Corporate
Authorization.

      This
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Company is or will be
a party have been duly and validly authorized by the Company; this Agreement has
been duly executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming due execution and
delivery by the Buyer, this Agreement is, and the Note, and the Warrants will
be, when executed and delivered by the Company, valid and binding obligations of
the Company enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as the
enforceability hereof or thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect
relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of
equity, regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in
equity or at law.

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -21-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (e) Non-contravention.

      The
execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the
consummation by the Company of the issuance of the Securities as contemplated by
this Agreement and consummation by the Company of the other transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents do not and will not, with or without
the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, (i) result in any violation
of any term or provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the
Company or any Subsidiary, (ii) conflict with or result in a breach by the
Company or any Subsidiary of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a
default under, or result in the modification of, or result in the creation or
imposition of any lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance (other than
pursuant to the Security Agreement) upon any of the properties or assets of the
Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or
other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party
or by which the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties
or assets are bound or affected, in any such case which would be reasonably
likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, (iii) violate or contravene any
applicable law, rule or regulation or any applicable decree, judgment or order
of any court, United States federal or state regulatory body, administrative
agency or other governmental body having jurisdiction over the Company or any
Subsidiary or any of their respective properties or assets, in any such case
which could have a Material Adverse Effect, or (iv) have any material adverse
effect on any permit, certification, registration, approval, consent, license or
franchise necessary for the Company or any Subsidiary to own or lease and
operate any of its properties and to conduct any of its business or the ability
of the Company or any Subsidiary to make use thereof.

      

      (f) Approvals, Filings,
Etc.

      No
authorization, approval or consent of, or filing with, any United States or
foreign court, governmental body, regulatory agency, self-regulatory
organization, or stock exchange or market or the stockholders of the Company is
required to be obtained or made by the Company or any Subsidiary for (x) the
execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Transaction Documents,
(y) the issuance and sale of the Securities as contemplated by this Agreement
and the terms of the Note and the Warrants and (z) the performance by the
Company of its obligations under the Transaction Documents, other than (1)
registration of the resale of the Shares under the 1933 Act as contemplated by
Section 8, (2) as may be required under applicable state securities or “blue
sky” laws, (3) filing of one or more Forms D with respect to the Securities as
required under Regulation D, (4) filing of financing statements as required

          -22-

      The SEC
Reports (together with the press release issued by the Company), the Transaction
Documents and the instruments delivered by the Company to the Buyer in
connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and in connection
with the closing on the Closing Date do not and will not on the date of
execution and delivery of this Agreement, the date of delivery thereof to the
Buyer and on the Closing Date contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they are made, not
misleading, it being understood that for purposes of this Section 4(g), any
statement contained in such information shall be deemed to be modified or
superseded for purposes of this Section 4(g) to the extent that a statement in
any document included in such information which was prepared and furnished to
the Buyer on a later date (but on or before the date of this Agreement) or filed
with the SEC on a later date (but on or before the date of this Agreement)
modifies or replaces such statement, whether or not such later prepared or filed
statement so states.

      

      (h) Investment
Company.

       Neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary is an “investment company” within the meaning of
such term under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules
and regulations of the SEC thereunder.

      

      (i) Absence of Brokers, Finders,
Etc.

      No
broker, finder or similar Person is entitled to any commission, fee or other
compensation by reason of action taken by or on behalf of the Company in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement other than the
Placement Agent (whose commissions, fees and compensation shall be payable
solely by the Company in accordance with a written agreement between the Company
and the Placement Agent), and the Company shall pay, and indemnify and hold
harmless the Buyer from, any claim made against the Buyer by any Person for any
such commission, fee or other compensation.

      

      (j) No
Solicitation.

      Neither
the Company nor, to the best of its knowledge, any other Person acting on behalf
of the Company, used any form of general solicitation or general advertising in

Company nor any Person authorized to act on its behalf will sell or offer for
sale any promissory notes, warrants, shares of Common Stock or other securities
to, or solicit any offers to buy any such security from, any Person so as
thereby to cause the issuance or sale of any of the Securities to be in
violation of any of the provisions of Section 5 of the 1933 Act.

      None of
the Company, any Subsidiary, any of their respective Affiliates, or any Person
acting on behalf of any of them has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or
sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under
circumstances that would require registration of any of the Securities under the
1933 Act or cause the offering of the Securities, the Other Notes and the Other
Warrants 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 any exchange or automated
quotation system on which any of the securities of the Company are listed,
quoted or designated. None of the Company, any Subsidiary, their respective
Affiliates or any Person acting on behalf of any of them will take any action or
steps referred to in the preceding sentence that would require registration of

conversion of the Note and the Other Notes and upon exercise of the Warrants and
the Other Warrants will be substantial and may increase in certain
circumstances. The Company further acknowledges that, subject to the terms and
conditions of the Transaction Documents, its obligation to issue Shares upon
conversion of the Note and upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with this
Agreement, the Note and the Warrants are, in each case, absolute and
unconditional regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on
the ownership interests of other stockholders of the Company.

      

      (m) Absence of Certain
Changes.

      Except as
disclosed in the SEC Reports, since December 31, 2005, there has been no
material adverse change and no material adverse development in the business,
properties, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), results of
operations or prospects of the Company and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole.
Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, since December 31, 2005, neither the

knowledge or reason to believe that its creditors intend to initiate involuntary
bankruptcy proceedings or any actual knowledge of any fact that would reasonably
lead a creditor to do so. The Company is not as of the date hereof, after giving
effect to the transactions contemplated hereby to occur on the Closing Date and
the transactions contemplated by the Other Note Purchase Agreements,
Insolvent.

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -24-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (n) No Undisclosed Events, Liabilities,
Developments or Circumstances.

      No event,
liability, development, circumstance or transaction has occurred or exists, with
respect to the Company or any Subsidiary or their respective business,
properties, operations, condition (financial or other), results of operations or
prospects, that would be required to be disclosed by the Company under
applicable securities laws (including pursuant to the anti-fraud provisions
thereof) on a registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC relating to
an issuance and sale by the Company of its Common Stock and which has not been
publicly disclosed.

      

      (o) Conduct of Business; Regulatory
Permits.

      Neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation of any term of or in default
under its Certificate of Incorporation, or its Bylaws. Neither the Company nor
any Subsidiary is in violation of any judgment, decree or order or any statute,
ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to the Company or any Subsidiary which
violation could have a Material Adverse Effect, and neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary will conduct its business in violation of any of the foregoing,
except for possible violations which could not, individually or in the
aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company is not in violation of any
of the rules, regulations or requirements of the AMEX and has no knowledge of
any facts or circumstances that would be likely to lead to delisting or
suspension of the Common Stock by the AMEX in the future. Since December 31,
2005, (i) the Common Stock has been listed on the AMEX, (ii) trading in the
Common Stock has not been suspended by the SEC or the AMEX and (iii) the Company
has received no communication, written or oral, from the SEC or the AMEX
regarding the suspension or delisting of the Common Stock from the AMEX. The
Company and the Subsidiaries possess all certificates, authorizations and
permits issued by the appropriate federal, state or foreign regulatory
authorities necessary to conduct their respective businesses, except where the
failure to possess such certificates, authorizations or permits could not
reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, 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
certificate, authorization or permit.

      

      (p) Indebtedness and Other
Contracts.

      Except as
set forth on the SEC Reports, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary (i) has any
outstanding Indebtedness, (ii) is a party to any contract, agreement or
instrument, the violation of which, or default under which, by any other party
to such contract, agreement or instrument could reasonably be expected to result
in a Material Adverse Effect, (iii) is in violation of any term of or in default
under any contract, agreement or instrument, except where such violations and
defaults could not reasonably be expected to result, individually or in the
aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect, or (iv) is a party to any contract,
agreement or instrument, the performance of which, in the judgment of the
Company's officers, has or is expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The
Company has filed all material contracts required to be filed in accordance with
the applicable requirements of the SEC Reports as exhibits to such reports.

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -25-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (q) Absence of
Litigation.

      Except as
set forth in the SEC Reports, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or
investigation, whether criminal, civil or otherwise, before or by the AMEX, any
court, arbitrational body, public board, government agency, self-regulatory
organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened
against or affecting the Company, the Common Stock or any of the Subsidiaries or
any of the Company's or any Subsidiary's officers or directors in their
capacities as such. To the knowledge of the Company, none of the directors or
officers of the Company has been a party to any securities related litigation
during the past ten years, other than as disclosed in the SEC
Reports.

      

      (r) Insurance.

      The
Company and each Subsidiary is insured by insurers of recognized financial
responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as management
of the Company believes to be prudent and customary in the businesses in which
the Company and the Subsidiaries are engaged. Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary has been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied for and
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 at a cost that could not have a Material Adverse
Effect.

      

      (s) Employee
Relations.

      Neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary is a party to any collective bargaining agreement
or employs any member of a union. No executive officer of the Company (as
defined in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act) has notified the Company that such
officer intends to leave the Company or otherwise terminate such officer's
employment with the Company. No executive officer of the Company, to the
knowledge of the Company, is, or is now expected to be, in violation of any
material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or
proprietary information agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other
contract or agreement or any restrictive covenant, and, to the knowledge of the
Company, the continued employment of each such executive officer does not
subject the Company or any Subsidiary to any material liability with respect to
any of the foregoing matters. The Company and the Subsidiaries are in compliance
with all federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations respecting
employment and employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and
wages and hours, except where failure to be in compliance could not, either
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.

      

      (t) Title.

      The
Company and the Subsidiaries have good and marketable title to all personal
property owned by them which is material to the business of the Company and the
Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all Liens except (i) immaterial
Liens for taxes not yet delinquent, (ii) immaterial carriers’, warehousemen’s,
mechanics', materialmen's, repairmen’s, landlord’s Liens (and other similar
Liens), and immaterial Liens under operating and similar agreements, to the
extent the same relate to expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business
consistent with past practice and that are not yet due, (iii) that are routine
governmental approvals, or (iv) such as do not materially affect the value of
such property and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of
such property by the Company and any of its Subsidiaries. Neither the Company
nor any Subsidiary owns any real property. Any real property and facilities held
under lease by the Company or any Subsidiary are held by it under valid,
subsisting and enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and
do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and
buildings by the Company and the Subsidiaries.

      

      (u) Intellectual
Property.

      Except as
provided in the Security Agreement, (1) the Company and each Subsidiary holds
all Intellectual Property that it owns free and clear of all Encumbrances and
restrictions on use or transfer, whether or not recorded, and has sole title to
and ownership of or has the full, exclusive (subject to the rights of its
licensees) right to use in its field of business such Intellectual Property; and
the Company and each Subsidiary holds all Intellectual Property that it uses but
does not own under valid licenses or sub-licenses from others; (2) the use of
the Intellectual Property by the Company or any Subsidiary does not, to the
knowledge of the Company, violate or infringe on the rights of any other Person;
(3) neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice of any
conflict between the asserted rights of others and the Company or any Subsidiary
with respect to any Intellectual Property; (4) the Company and each Subsidiary
has used its commercially reasonable best efforts to protect its rights in and
to all Intellectual Property; (5) the Company and each Subsidiary are in
compliance with all material terms and conditions of its agreements relating to
the Intellectual Property; (6) neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is, or
since December 31, 2005 has been, a defendant in any action, suit, investigation
or proceeding relating to infringement or misappropriation by the Company or any
Subsidiary of any Intellectual Property nor has the Company or any Subsidiary
been notified of any alleged claim of infringement or misappropriation by the
Company or any Subsidiary of any Intellectual Property; (7) to the knowledge of
the Company, none of the products or services the Company and the Subsidiaries
are researching, developing, propose to research and develop, make, have made,
use, or sell, infringes or misappropriates any Intellectual Property right of
any third party; (8) none of the trademarks and service marks used by the
Company or any Subsidiary, to the knowledge of the Company, infringes the
trademark or service mark rights of any third party; and (9) to the Company’s
knowledge none of the material processes and formulae, research and development
results and other know-how relating to the Company's or the Subsidiaries'
respective businesses, the value of which to the Company or any Subsidiary is
contingent upon maintenance of the confidentiality thereof, has been disclosed
to any Person other than Persons bound by written confidentiality
agreements.

      

      (v) Environmental Laws.

      To the
Company’s knowledge, the Company and the Subsidiaries (i) are in compliance with
all Environmental Laws, (ii) have received all permits, licenses or other
approvals required of them under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct their
respective businesses and (iii) are in compliance with all terms and conditions
of any such permit, license or approval where, in any such case in the foregoing
clauses (i), (ii) or (iii), the failure to so comply could be reasonably
expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse
Effect.

      

      (w) Subsidiary
Rights.

      The
Company or one of the Subsidiaries has the unrestricted right to vote, and
(subject to limitations imposed by the applicable corporation or company law
under which each Subsidiary is formed) to receive dividends and distributions
on, all stock of the Subsidiaries that is owned by the Company or such other
Subsidiary as owns such stock.

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -26-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (x) Tax Status.

      The
Company and each Subsidiary (i) has made or filed all federal and state income
and all other tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction
to which it is subject, (ii) has paid all taxes and other governmental
assessments and charges that are shown or determined to be due on such returns,

which it has set aside on its books a provision in the amount of such taxes

reasonably adequate for the payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the
periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no
unpaid taxes claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and
the officers of the Company know of no basis for any such claim.

      

      (y) Internal Accounting Controls;
Financial Statements.

      The
Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in
Rule 13a-15 under the 1934 Act) that are effective in ensuring that information
required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits
under the 1934 Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the
time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, including, without
limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required
to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the
1934 Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including
its principal executive officer or officers and its principal financial officer
or officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure. The consolidated financial statements, if any, included in each SEC
Report present fairly and accurately in all material respects the consolidated
financial position of the Company and the Subsidiaries as of the dates reported
and the consolidated results of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and
cash flows for the periods reported, all in conformity with Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles applied on a consistent basis and in conformity with the
rules and regulations of the SEC under the 1934 Act applicable to the Company,
subject, in the case of unaudited financial statements, to (1) normal recurring
year-end adjustments, all of which that are necessary for a fair presentation of
such financial statements have been included, and (2) the absence of all
required notes thereto. Except as set forth in the consolidated financial
statements of the Company included in the SEC Reports, neither the Company nor
any Subsidiary has any liabilities, contingent or otherwise, except those which
individually or in the aggregate are not material to the financial condition or
operating results of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole.

      

      (z) Sarbanes-Oxley
Act.

      The
Company is in compliance with any and all applicable requirements of the

       Upon
execution and delivery of the Security Agreement by the Company and the
Collateral Agent and completion of the filings referred to in Schedule I to the
Pledge and Security Agreement and Exhibit C to the

          -27-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (cc) Disclosures.

      For
purposes of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, none of the
representations or warranties made by the Company under any of the Transaction
Documents and no written information furnished by the Company pursuant hereto,
or in any other document, certificate or written statement furnished by the
Company to the Buyer or any authorized representative of the Buyer, pursuant to
the Transaction Documents or in connection therewith, contains any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in
order to make the statements contained herein and therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

      

      (dd) Absence of Rights
Agreement.

      The
Company has not adopted a shareholder rights plan or similar arrangement
relating to accumulations of beneficial ownership of Common Stock or a change of
control in the Company.

      

      5. CERTAIN
COVENANTS.

      

      (a) Transfer
Restrictions.

      The Buyer
acknowledges and agrees that (1) the Note and the Warrants have not been and are
not being registered under the provisions of the 1933 Act or any state
securities laws and, except as provided in Section 8, the Shares have not been
and are not being registered under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws,
and that the Note and the Warrants may not be transferred unless the Buyer shall
have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory in
form, scope and substance to the Company, to the effect that the Note or the
Warrants to be transferred may be transferred without such registration; (2) no
sale, conveyance assignment or other transfer of the Note or the Warrants or any
interest therein may be made except in accordance with the terms hereof and
thereof; (3) the Shares may not be resold by the Buyer unless the resale has
been registered under the 1933 Act or is made pursuant to an applicable
exemption from such registration and the Company shall have received the opinion
of counsel provided for in the second to last sentence of this Section 5(a); (4)
any sale of Shares under a Registration Statement shall be made only in
compliance with the terms of this Section 5(a) and Section 8 (including, without
limitation, Section 8(c)(4)); (5) any sale of the Securities made in reliance on
Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144 and further,
if the exemption provided by Rule 144 is not available, any resale of the
Securities under circumstances in which the seller, or the Person through whom
the sale is made, may be deemed to be an underwriter, as that term is used in
the 1933 Act, may require compliance with some other exemption under the 1933
Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and (6) the Company is
under no obligation to register the Securities (other than registration of the
resale of the Registrable Securities in accordance with Section 8) under the
1933 Act or, except as provided in Section 5(d) and Section 8, to comply with
the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder. Prior to the time
particular Shares are eligible for resale under Rule 144(k), the Buyer may not
sell the Shares in a transaction which does not constitute a sale thereof
pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement in accordance with the plan of
distribution set forth therein or in any supplement to the related Prospectus
unless the Buyer shall have delivered to the Company an opinion of counsel,
reasonably satisfactory in form, scope and substance to the Company, that such
Shares may be so sold without registration under the 1933 Act. Nothing in any of
the Transaction Documents shall limit the right of a holder of the Securities to
make a bona fide pledge thereof to an institutional lender and the Company
agrees to cooperate with any Investor who seeks to effect any such pledge by
providing such information and making such confirmations as reasonably
requested. The Buyer agrees that any sale by the Buyer of Shares pursuant to a
particular Registration Statement shall be sold in a manner described in the
plan of distribution set forth in the related Prospectus and, if the prospectus
delivery requirement cannot be satisfied by compliance with Rule 153 or 172
under the 1933 Act, (A) if such sale is made through a broker, the Buyer shall
instruct its broker to deliver the Prospectus to the purchaser or purchasers (or
the broker or brokers therefor) in connection with such sale, shall supply
copies of the Prospectus to its broker or brokers and shall instruct its broker
or brokers to deliver such Prospectus to the purchaser in such sale or such
purchaser’s broker, (B) if such sale is made in a transaction directly with a
purchaser and not through the facilities of any securities exchange or market,
the Buyer shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, the Prospectus to such
purchaser; and (C) if such sale is made by any means other than those described
in the immediately preceding clauses (A) and (B), the Buyer shall otherwise use
its best efforts to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the 1933
Act applicable to such sale.

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -28-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (b) Restrictive
Legends.

      (1) The
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Note shall bear a restrictive legend in
substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed
against transfer of the Note):

      

      NEITHER
THE ISSUANCE OF THIS NOTE NOR THE ISSUANCE OF THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS
NOTE IS CONVERTIBLE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED (THE “1933 ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE, NOR MAY ANY INTEREST
THEREIN BE, OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION
STATEMENT UNDER THE 1933 ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A
TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE 1933 ACT AND IN
ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY, SUBJECT TO
CERTAIN EXCEPTIONS, A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT,
THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY. THESE
SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT SECURED
BY SUCH SECURITIES.

      

      (2) The Buyer
further acknowledges and agrees that the Warrants shall bear a restrictive
legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be
placed against transfer of the Warrants):

      

      NEITHER
THIS WARRANT NOR THE SECURITIES INTO WHICH THIS WARRANT IS EXERCISABLE HAVE BEEN
REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES
REGULATORS OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “1933 ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY
NOT BE, NOR MAY ANY INTEREST THEREIN BE, OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE 1933 ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE
EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION
REQUIREMENTS OF THE 1933 ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY, SUBJECT TO CERTAIN EXCEPTIONS, A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL
TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY
ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY. THESE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A
BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.

      

      (3) The Buyer
further acknowledges and agrees that until such time as the Shares have been
registered for resale under the 1933 Act as contemplated by Section 8 or are
eligible for resale under Rule 144(k) under the 1933 Act, the certificates for
the Shares may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form
(and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of the certificates
for the Shares):

      

      The
securities represented by this certificate have not been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”). The securities have been
acquired for investment and may not be resold, transferred or assigned in the
absence of an effective registration statement for the securities under the 1933
Act or an opinion of counsel that registration is not required under the 1933
Act.

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -29-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (4) Certificates
evidencing the Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set
forth in Section 5(b)(3) hereof): (i) while a registration statement (including
the Registration Statement) covering the resale of such Security is effective
under the 1933 Act, or (ii) following any sale of such Shares pursuant to Rule
144, or (iii) if such Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(k), or (iv) if
such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the 1933Act
(including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the SEC). The
Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Company’s
transfer agent promptly after the SEC Effective Date if required by the
Company’s transfer agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder. If all
or any portion of a Securities are converted or exercised (as applicable) at a
time when there is an effective registration statement to cover the resale of
the Shares, or if such Shares may be sold under Rule 144(k) or if such legend is
not otherwise required under applicable requirements of the 1933 Act (including
judicial interpretations thereof) then such Shares shall be issued free of all
legends. The Company agrees that following the SEC Effective Date or at such
time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 5(b)(4), it will,
no later than five Trading Days following the delivery by a Buyer to the Company
or the Company’s transfer agent of a certificate representing Shares, as
applicable, deliver or cause to be delivered to such Buyer a certificate
representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends.
The Company may not make any notation on its records or give instructions to any
transfer agent of the Company that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set
forth in this Section. Certificates for Securities subject to legend removal
hereunder shall be transmitted by the transfer agent of the Company to the
Buyers by crediting the account of the Buyer’s prime broker with the Depository
Trust Company System.

      

      (c) Reporting
Status.

        During
the Registration Period, the Company shall timely file all reports required to
be filed with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act, and the
Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports
under the 1934 Act even if the 1934 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder
would permit such termination.

      

      (d) Form D.

      The
Company agrees to file with the SEC on a timely basis one or more Forms D with
respect to the Securities as required under Regulation D to claim the exemption
provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to the Buyer
within five Business Days after Buyer requests in writing a copy of such
filing.

      

      (e) State Securities
Laws.

      On or
before the Closing Date, the Company shall take such action as shall be
necessary to qualify, or to obtain an exemption for, the offer and sale of the
Securities to the Buyer as contemplated by the Transaction Documents under such
of the securities laws of jurisdictions in the United States as shall be
applicable thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing obligations of the Company in
this Section 5(e), the Company shall not be required (1) to qualify to do
business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify
but for this Section 5(e), (2) to subject itself to general taxation in any such
jurisdiction, (3) to file a general consent to service of process in any such
jurisdiction, (4) to provide any undertakings that cause more than nominal
expense or burden to the Company or (5) to make any change in its certificate or
articles of incorporation or by-laws which the Company determines to be contrary
to the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The Company shall
furnish the Buyer with copies of all filings, applications, orders and grants or
confirmations of exemptions relating to such securities laws on or before the
Closing Date.

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -30-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (f) Limitation on Certain
Actions.

      From the
date of execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto to the
date of issuance of the Note, the Company (1) shall comply with Article III of
the Note as if the Note were outstanding, (2) shall not take any action which,
if the Note were outstanding, (A) would constitute an Event of Default or, with
the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute an Event
of Default or (B) would constitute a Repurchase Event or, with the giving of
notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute a Repurchase
Event.

      

      (g) Use of
Proceeds.

      The
Company represents and warrants to the Buyer, and covenants and agrees with the
Buyer, that: (1) it does not own or have any present intention of acquiring any
Margin Stock; (2) the proceeds of sale of the Note and the Warrant Shares will
be used for general working capital purposes and in the operation of the
Company’s business; provided,
however, that up
to $100,000 of the proceeds of this Note and the Other Notes may be used in
connection with the search for an additional member of senior management
described in Section 3.17(b) of the Note; (3) none of such proceeds will be
used, directly or indirectly (A) to pay any existing debt obligations (other
than normal payables), (B) to make any loan to or investment in any other Person
or (C) for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of purchasing
or carrying any margin stock or for the purpose of maintaining, reducing or
retiring any indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or carry any
stock that is currently a Margin Stock or for any other purpose which might
constitute the transactions contemplated by this Agreement a “purpose credit”
within the meaning of such Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System; and (4) neither the Company nor any agent acting on its behalf
has taken or will take any action which might cause this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby to violate Regulation T, Regulation U or any
other regulation of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or to
violate the 1934 Act, in each case as in effect now or as the same may hereafter
be in effect.

      

      (h) Best
Efforts.

      Each of
the Company, on the one hand, and the Buyer, on the other hand, agree to use
their best efforts timely to satisfy each of the conditions to the other’s
obligations to sell and purchase the Note set forth in Section 6 or 7, as the
case may be, of this Agreement on or before the Closing Date.

      

      (i) Debt
Obligation.

       So long
as any portion of the Note is outstanding, the Company shall cause its books and
records to reflect the Note as a debt of the Company in its unpaid principal
amount, shall cause its financial statements to reflect the Note as a debt of
the Company in such amount as shall be the greatest amount permitted in
accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and, whenever
appropriate, as a valid senior debt obligation of the Company for money
borrowed.

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -31-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (j) Right of the Buyer to Participate in
Future Transactions.

      

      (1) Right to
Participate. The
Buyer will have a right to participate, on the terms and conditions set forth in
this Section 5(j), in all sales by the Company of any of the Company’s equity
securities or other securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for any
of the Company’s equity securities in each capital raising transaction, if any,
that occurs at any time when the Note, or any instrument issued upon transfer or
split up thereof, remains outstanding (in whole or in part), other than any such
sale that is a public offering underwritten on a firm commitment basis and
registered with the SEC under the 1933 Act and other than a Strategic Issuance;
provided,
however, that if
under legal requirements applicable to a particular transaction the only Persons
eligible to purchase securities in such transaction are “accredited investors,”
as defined in Regulation D, then the Buyer must be an accredited investor in
order to purchase securities in such transaction. For any such transaction
during such period, the Company shall give at least four Business Days advance
written notice to the Buyer prior to any offer or sale of any of the Company's
securities in such transaction by providing to the Buyer a term sheet which (A)
contains all significant business terms of such proposed transaction, (B) is
sufficiently detailed so as to reasonably permit the Buyer the opportunity to
determine whether or not to exercise its rights under this Section 5(j) and (C)
is at least as detailed as the term sheet or summary of such transaction as the
Company shall furnish to any offeree or broker in such transaction. The Buyer
shall have the right to participate in such proposed transaction and to purchase
its Pro Rata Share of such
securities which are the subject of such proposed transaction for the same
consideration and on the same terms and conditions as contemplated for sales to
third parties in such transaction (or such lesser portion thereof as specified
by the Buyer). If the Buyer elects to exercise its rights hereunder for a
particular transaction, it shall deliver written notice to the Company within
four Business Days following receipt from the Company of the notice and term
sheet meeting the requirements of this Section 5(j), which notice from the Buyer
shall be conditional upon (A) the Buyer’s receipt of satisfactory definitive
documents for such transaction from the Company if the Company has not furnished
final, definitive documents for such transaction to the Buyer at or before the
time the Company gives such notice of such transaction to the Buyer, and (B) the
satisfaction of the other conditions precedent to the obligations of buyers
generally in such transaction to complete such transaction. If, subsequent to
the Company giving notice to the Buyer hereunder but prior to any of (i) the
Buyer exercising its right to participate, (ii) the expiration of the four
Business Day period without response from the Buyer or (iii) the rejection of
such offer for such financing by the Buyer, the terms and conditions of the
proposed sale to third parties in such transaction are changed from those
disclosed in the term sheet provided to the Buyer, the Company shall be required
to provide a new notice and term sheet meeting the requirements of this Section
5(j), reflecting such revised terms, to the Buyer hereunder and the Buyer shall
have the right, which must be exercised within four Business Days of the date
the Buyer receives such new notice and such revised term sheet, to exercise its
rights to purchase the securities on such changed terms and conditions and
otherwise as provided hereunder. If the Buyer does not exercise its rights
hereunder with respect to a proposed transaction within the period or periods
provided, or affirmatively declines to engage in such proposed transaction with
the Company, then the Company may proceed with such proposed transaction on the
same terms and conditions as noticed to the Buyer (assuming the Buyer has
consented to the transaction, if required, pursuant to Section 5(n) and such
transaction does not violate any other term or provision of the Transaction
Documents), provided that if
such proposed transaction is not consummated within 75 days following the
Company’s notice hereunder, then the rights hereunder shall again be afforded to
the Buyer for such proposed transaction. The rights and obligations of this
Section 5(j) shall in no way limit or restrict the other rights of the Buyer
pursuant to this Section 5. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
failure of the Buyer to affirmatively elect in writing to participate in any
proposed transaction within the required time frames shall be deemed to be the
equivalent of Buyer’s decision not to participate in such proposed transaction.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5(j)(1) shall not apply in respect
of an Exempt Issuance.

       

       

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -32-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      

      (2) Limitation on Right of
Participation.
Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of shares of Common Stock
that may be acquired directly or through acquisition of Common Stock Equivalents
by the Buyer pursuant to any transaction to which this Section 5(j) applies
shall not at any one time exceed a number that, when added to the total number
of shares of Common Stock deemed beneficially owned by the Buyer (other than by
virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities (including
the Note and the Warrants) that have limitations on the Buyer’s right to
convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein (the
“Excluded Shares”)), together with all shares of Common Stock deemed
beneficially owned at such time (other than by virtue of ownership of Excluded
Shares) by Persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be
aggregated with the beneficial ownership of the Buyer for purposes of
determining whether a group exists or for purposes of determining the Buyer’s
beneficial ownership, in either such case for purposes of Section 13(d) of the
1934 Act and Regulation 13D-G thereunder, would result in beneficial ownership
by the Buyer or such group of more than 9.9% of the shares of the Company's
Common Stock (the “Restricted Ownership Percentage”), computed in accordance
with Regulation 13D-G. The Buyer shall have the right (x) at any time and from
time to time to reduce its Restricted Ownership Percentage immediately upon
notice to the Company in the event and only to the extent that Section 16 of the
1934 Act or the rules promulgated thereunder (or any successor statute or rules)
is changed to reduce the beneficial ownership percentage threshold thereunder to
a percentage less than 10% and (y) at any time and from time to time, to
increase its Restricted Ownership Percentage unless the Buyer shall have, by
written instrument delivered to the Company, irrevocably waived its rights to so
increase its Restricted Ownership Percentage. If the Buyer would otherwise be
unable by reason of the Restricted Ownership Percentage to acquire the full
amount of securities which the Buyer would otherwise be entitled to acquire in a
particular transaction pursuant to this Section 5(j) then (A) the Company shall
include in the terms of the securities which the Buyer is entitled to purchase
in such transaction under this Section 5(j) a provision comparable to Section
6.7 of the
Note and (B) if, notwithstanding the inclusion of the provision required by the
immediately preceding clause (1), the Buyer remains unable to acquire the full
amount of securities which the Buyer would otherwise be entitled to acquire
under this Section 5(j), the Buyer’s right to acquire such securities shall be
deferred and if thereafter, at any time or from time to time the Buyer could
acquire all or any part of such securities without exceeding its Restricted
Ownership Percentage, then the Buyer shall be entitled to acquire such
securities at such time or form time to time. The Buyer will provide notice to
the Company when it becomes able to purchase all or any part of such securities
and the closing of each such purchase shall occur on the date that is five
Business Days after the Buyer gives such notice.

      

      (3) Right Applicable to Successive
Transactions. The
rights of the Buyer under this Section 5(j) shall apply to all capital raising
transactions described in Section 5(j)(1) that occur during the period specified
in Section 5(j)(1).

      

      (k) Press
Releases.

      Any press
release or other publicity concerning this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement shall be submitted to the Buyer for comment at
least one Business Day prior to issuance, unless the release is required to be
issued within a shorter period of time pursuant to this Agreement or by law or
pursuant to the rules of the securities exchange or market which at the time
constitutes the principal market for the Common Stock.  The
Company shall, contemporaneously with the Closing on the Closing Date or as
promptly as possible thereafter on the Closing Date, issue a press release, in
the form of Annex VI hereto,
concerning the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company's other press
releases and other public information, to the extent concerning the Transaction
Documents, shall contain such information as reasonably requested by the Buyer
and be reasonably approved by the Buyer prior to issuance. 

      

      (l) Form 8-K; Limitation on Information
and Buyer Obligations.

      (1)
Within two Business Days after the Closing Date, the Company will publicly
report the issue and sale of the Note and Warrants and the securities issued
pursuant to the Other Purchase Agreements entered into on or before the Closing
Date by filing with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K under the 1934 Act,
which report shall describe the material terms of the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby and include copies of the forms of the Transaction Documents
as exhibits to such report (the “Transaction Form 8-K”). The Company
acknowledges and agrees that, upon the filing of the Transaction Form 8-K with
the SEC, the Buyer shall not be in possession of any material nonpublic
information received from the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective
officers, directors, employees or agents.

      

      (2) The
Company shall not provide, and shall cause each Subsidiary and the respective
officers, directors, employees and agents of the Company and the Subsidiaries
not to provide, the Buyer any material nonpublic information regarding the
Company or any Subsidiary from and after the date the Company files, or is
required by this Agreement to file, the Transaction Form 8-K with the SEC
without the prior express written consent of the Buyer. 

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -33-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (m) Limitation on Certain
Transactions.

      From the
date of this Agreement until after the SEC Effective Date of the Registration
Statement contemplated by Section 8(a)(1), without the prior written consent of
the Buyer (which consent may be withheld in the Buyer’s sole discretion), the
Company shall not issue or sell or agree to issue or sell any securities (aside
from the Other Notes and the Other Warrants and the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof) in a capital raising transaction,
unless such securities will not be, and are not, registered for sale or resale
under the 1933 Act until on or after such SEC Effective Date; provided, however,
that the limitation of this Section 5(m) shall not apply to (a) shares of Common
Stock or options to employees, officers, directors or consultants of the Company
pursuant to any stock or option plan duly adopted by a majority of the
non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company or a majority of
the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such
purpose, (b) securities upon the exercise or exchange of or conversion of any
Securities issued hereunder and/or securities exercisable or exchangeable for or
convertible into shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date of
this Agreement, provided that such securities have not been amended since the
date of this Agreement to increase the number of such securities or to decrease
the exercise, exchange or conversion price of any such securities, and (c)
securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions, provided
any such issuance shall only be to a Person which is, itself or through its
subsidiaries, an operating company in a business synergistic with the business
of the Company and in which the Company receives benefits in addition to the
investment of funds, but shall not include a transaction in which the Company is
issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or to an entity
whose primary business is investing in securities (collectively, an “Exempt
Issuance”). The Company agrees that, except for the amounts of securities to be
purchased and the name of the buyer and the Restricted Ownership Percentage, the
terms and provisions of the Other Notes and the Other Warrants shall be
identical to the Note and the Warrants.

      

      (n) Debt Obligation.

       So long
as any portion of the Note is outstanding, the Company shall cause its books and
records to reflect the Note as a debt of the Company in its unpaid principal
amount, shall cause its financial statements to reflect the Note as a debt of
the Company in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and as a
valid senior debt obligation of the Company for money borrowed that is secured
by the Collateral (unless all Collateral shall have been released pursuant to
the Security Agreement and the security interest thereunder shall have
terminated).

      

      (o) Security Agreement; Financing
Statements, Etc.

      The
Company agrees to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent at or before the
Closing the Patent and Trademark Security Agreement in the form attached hereto
as Annex III and the
Pledge and Security Agreement in the form attached hereto as Annex IV. The
Company shall prepare and at or before the Closing Date file with the
appropriate officials, Uniform Commercial Code financing statements on Form
UCC-1 relating to the Collateral in which the Company is granting a security
interest to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the holders of the Note and
the Other Notes pursuant to the Pledge and Security Agreement; and prepare and
file with the PTO appropriate documents relating to the Collateral in which the
Company is granting a security interest to the Collateral Agent for the benefit
of the holders of the Note and the Other Notes pursuant to the Patent and
Trademark Security Agreement. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall provide to
the Buyer evidence of such filings and customary, current search reports of the
relevant Uniform Commercial Code filing offices and the PTO.

      

      (p) Short Sales and Confidentiality
After The Date Hereof.

      The Buyer
covenants that neither it nor any affiliates acting on its behalf or pursuant to
any understanding with it will execute any Short Sales during the period
commencing
from the time
that the Buyer first received a term sheet from the Company or any other Person
setting forth the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder and
ending on the earlier of (i) the date that the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement are first publicly announced subsequent to the Closing Date as
described in Section 5(k) and (ii) the date, if applicable, that this Agreement
is terminated pursuant to Section 10(l). The Buyer covenants that until such
time as the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed
by the Company as described in Section 5(k) or the earlier termination of this
Agreement, the Buyer will maintain the confidentiality of all disclosures made
to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and terms of
this transaction). The Buyer understands and acknowledges that the SEC currently
takes the position that coverage of short sales of shares of the Common Stock
“against the box” prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement with
the Securities is a violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act, as set forth in Item
65, Section 5 under Section A, of the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone
Interpretations, dated July 1997, compiled by the Office of Chief Counsel,
Division of Corporation Finance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer does
not make any representation, warranty or covenant hereby that it will not engage
in Short Sales in the securities of the Company after the earlier of (i) the
date that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are first publicly
announced subsequent to the Closing Date as described in Section 5(k) and (ii)
the date, if applicable, that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section
10(l). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Buyer that is a
multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage
separate portions of such Buyer's assets and the portfolio managers have no
direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers
managing other portions of such Buyer's assets, the covenant 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.

       

       

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -34-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      

      6. CONDITIONS TO THE COMPANY’S
OBLIGATION TO SELL.

      

      The Buyer
understands that the Company’s obligation to sell the Note and issue the
December Closing Date Warrant to the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement is
conditioned upon satisfaction of the following conditions precedent on or before
the Closing Date (any or all of which may be waived by the Company in its sole
discretion):

would constitute a Repurchase Event or which, with the giving of notice or the
passage of time, or both, would constitute a Repurchase Event shall have
occurred and be continuing;

      

      (d) The
Company shall have delivered to the Buyer a certificate, dated the Closing Date,
duly executed by its Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, to the
effect set forth in subparagraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section
7;

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -35-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (e) The

Closing Date, of the Secretary of the Company certifying (1) the Certificate of
Incorporation and By-Laws of the Company as in effect on the Closing Date, and
(2) all resolutions of the Board of Directors (and committees thereof) of the
Company relating to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the

      8. REGISTRATION
RIGHTS.

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -36-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (a) Mandatory
Registration.

      (1) The
Company shall prepare and, as expeditiously as possible, but in no event later
than the date which is 90 days after the Closing Date, file with the SEC a
Registration Statement which covers the resale by the Buyer of a number of
shares of Common Stock equal to the sum of (A) the number of Conversion Shares
issuable upon conversion of the Note plus (B) the
number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, as Registrable
Securities, and which Registration Statement shall state that, in accordance
with Rule 416 under the 1933 Act, such Registration Statement also covers such
indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock as may become issuable
upon conversion of the Note or exercise of the Warrants to prevent dilution
resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions. Such
Registration Statement may also cover the resale by other holders of shares of
Common Stock issued or issuable by the Company pursuant to any equity or
convertible debt financing completed by the Company prior to the SEC Filing
Date.

      

      (2) Prior to
the earlier of the (i) SEC Effective Date, or (ii) two (2) years from the date
hereof, the Company shall not file any other registration statement or any
amendment thereto with the SEC under the 1933 Act or request the acceleration of
the effectiveness of any other registration statement previously filed with the
SEC, other than (A) any registration statement on Form S-8 and (B) any
registration statement or amendment which the Company is required to file, or as
to which the Company is required to request acceleration, pursuant to any
obligation in effect on the date of execution and delivery of this
Agreement.

      

      (3) If at any
time or from time to time after the Closing Date any Investor shall hold or be
the beneficial owner of any Registrable Securities, other than those Registrable
Securities included in the Registration Statement that the Company is required
to file under Section 8(a)(1), which Registrable Securities are not covered by a
Registration Statement, then promptly following the written demand of any
Investor following the issuance of such additional Registrable Securities or the
issuance of any securities convertible into, exchangeable for, or otherwise
entitling an Investor to acquire, such additional Registrable Securities, and in
any event within 30 days following such demand, the Company shall prepare and
file with the SEC a new Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or, if Form S-3 is
not then available to the Company, on such form of registration statement as is
then available to effect a registration for resale of such additional
Registrable Securities) covering the resale by such Investor of such additional
Registrable Securities. Such Registration Statement also shall cover, to the
extent permitted by the 1933 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder (including
Rule 416), such indeterminate number of additional securities resulting from
stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions with respect to such
additional Registrable Securities. Nothing herein shall limit the Company’s
obligations or any Investor’s rights under Section 6.4 of the Note or Section 9
of the Warrants.

      

      (4) If a
Payment Event occurs, then the Company will make payments to the Buyer, in
immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States, as partial
liquidated damages for the minimum amount of damages to the Buyer by reason
thereof, and not as a penalty, which payments shall accrue at the rate of 1.0%
per month of the principal amount of the Note at the time outstanding during
each Payment Period. Each such payment shall be due and payable within five
Business Days after the end of each calendar month during which any Payment
Period occurs until the termination of such Payment Period and within five
Business Days after such termination. Such payments shall be in partial
compensation to the Buyer, and shall not constitute the Buyer’s exclusive remedy
for any Payment Event. A particular Payment Period shall terminate upon (u) the
filing of the applicable Registration Statement, in the case of clause (i) of
the definition of “Payment Event”; (v) the applicable SEC Effective Date for the
particular Registration Statement, in the case of clause (ii) or (iii) of the
definition of “Payment Event”; (w) the ability of the Buyer to effect sales
pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement, in the case of clause (iv) of
the definition of “Payment Event”; (x) the listing or inclusion and/or trading
of the Common Stock on a Trading Market, as the case may be, in the case of
clause (v) of the definition of “Payment Event”; (y) the issuance and delivery
of the shares, in the case of clause (vi) of the definition of “Payment Event”;
and (z) in the case of the events described in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) of
the definition of “Payment Event”, the earlier termination of the Registration
Period, and in each such case in the preceding clauses (u) thorough (z), any
Payment Period that commenced by reason of the occurrence of any Payment Event
shall terminate if at the time (1) no other Payment Event is continuing or (2)
subject to the rights of any transferee under Section 10(j), the Buyer no longer
holds any portion of the Note or any Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Section 8(a)(4) to the contrary, the Company shall not
be obligated to make any payments hereunder for Payment Periods in excess of an
aggregate of 548 days. If the Company fails to pay any liquidated damages
pursuant to this Section in full within three days after the date payable, the
Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 16% per annum (or such lesser
rate as is the highest rate permitted by applicable law) to the Buyer, accruing
daily from the date such liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all
such interest thereon, are paid in full.

       

                  (5) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the registration rights set forth in this Section 8 apply to the
Note and December Closing Date Warrant. The July 2006 Warrant shall have the
same registration rights mutatis mutandis as, and
be registered with, the Other Warrants pursuant to the registration rights set
forth in the Other Note Purchase Agreement. 

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -37-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (b) Obligations of the
Company.

      In
connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Company
shall:

      

      (1) use its
best efforts to cause each Registration Statement to become effective as
promptly as possible after the filing thereof and to
keep such Registration Statement effective at all times during the Registration
Period. The Company shall submit to the SEC, within three Business Days after
the Company learns that no review of such Registration Statement will be made by
the staff of the SEC or that the staff of the SEC has no further comments on
such Registration Statement, as the case may be, a request for acceleration of
effectiveness of such Registration Statement to a time and date not later than
48 hours after the submission of such request. The Company represents and
warrants to the Investors that (a) each Registration Statement (including any
amendment or supplement thereto and prospectus contained therein), at the time
it is first filed with the SEC, at the time it is ordered effective by the SEC
and at all times during which it is required to be effective hereunder (and each
such amendment and supplement at the time it is filed with the SEC and at all
times during which it is available for use in connection with the offer and sale
of the Registrable Securities) shall not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (b) each Prospectus,
at the time the related Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC
and at all times that such Prospectus is required by this Agreement to be
available for use by any Investor and, in accordance with Section 8(c)(4), any
Investor is entitled to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to such Prospectus,
shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not
misleading;

      

      (2) subject
to Section 8(b)(5), prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including
post-effective amendments) and supplements to each Registration Statement and
Prospectus as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective,
and such Prospectus current, at all times during the Registration Period, and,
during the Registration Period (other than during any Blackout Period during
which the provisions of Section 8(b)(5)(B) are applicable), comply with the
provisions of the 1933 Act applicable to the Company in order to permit the
disposition by the Investors of all Registrable Securities covered by such
Registration Statement;

      

      (3) furnish
to Investors whose Registrable Securities are included in a particular
Registration Statement and such Investors’ respective legal counsel, promptly
after the same is prepared and publicly distributed, filed with the SEC or
received by the Company, (1) one conformed copy of such Registration Statement
and any amendment thereto and the related Prospectus and each amendment or
supplement thereto and (2) such number of copies of such Prospectus and all
amendments and supplements thereto and such other documents, as such Investor
may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable
Securities owned by such Investor; and notify the Investor and its legal counsel
within one Business Day after the same is filed with the SEC, or received by the
Company, of the filing or receipt of each letter written by or on behalf on the
Company to the SEC or the staff of the SEC, and each item of correspondence from
the SEC or the staff of the SEC, in each case relating to such Registration
Statement (other than any portion of any thereof which contains information for
which the Company has sought confidential treatment), and permit counsel
designed by the Investor to review letters and items of correspondence upon the
request of such counsel;

      

      (4) subject
to Section 8(b)(5), use its best efforts (i) to register and qualify the
Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement under the
securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any Investor who owns or
holds any Registrable Securities reasonably requests, (ii) to prepare and to
file in those jurisdictions such amendments (including post-effective
amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be
necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof at all times during the
Registration Period and (iii) to take all other actions reasonably necessary or
advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale by the Investors in
such jurisdictions; provided,
however, that the
Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto
(I) to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise
be required to qualify but for this Section 8(b)(4), (II) to subject itself to
general taxation in any such jurisdiction, (III) to file a general consent to
service of process in any such jurisdiction, (IV) to provide any undertakings
that cause more than nominal expense or burden to the Company or (V) to make any
change in its certificate or article of incorporation or by-laws which the Board
of Directors of the Company determines to be contrary to the best interests of
the Company and its stockholders;

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -38-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (5) (A) as
promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event or circumstance,
notify each Investor of the occurrence of any event or circumstance of which the
Company has knowledge (x) as a result of which any Prospectus, 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, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, (y) which requires the Company to amend or supplement any
Registration Statement due to the receipt from an Investor or any other selling
stockholder named in the Prospectus of new or additional information about such
Investor or selling stockholder or its intended plan of distribution of its
Registrable Securities or other securities covered by such Registration
Statement, or (z) which requires the Company to amend or supplement any
Registration Statement pursuant to the Company’s undertakings as set forth in
the Registration Statement and in Item 512 of Regulation S-K under the 1933 Act,
and use its best efforts promptly to prepare a supplement or amendment to such
Registration Statement and Prospectus to correct such untrue statement or
omission or to add any new or additional information, and deliver a number of
copies of such supplement or amendment to each Investor as such Investor may
reasonably request;

      

      (B) notwithstanding
Section 8(b)(5)(A) above, if at any time the Company notifies the Investors as
contemplated by Section 8(b)(5)(A) with respect to a particular Registration
Statement or Prospectus the Company also notifies the Investors that the event
giving rise to such notice relates to a development involving the Company which
occurred subsequent to the later of (x) the SEC Effective Date of the applicable
Registration Statement and (y) the latest date prior to such notice on which the
Company has amended or supplemented such Registration Statement, then the
Company shall not be required to use best efforts to make such amendment during
a Blackout Period; provided,
however, that in
any period of 365 consecutive days the Company shall not be entitled to avail
itself of its rights under this Section 8(b)(5)(B) with respect to more than two
Blackout Periods; and provided further, however,
that no
Blackout Period may commence sooner than 90 days after the end of an earlier
Blackout Period;

      

      (6) as
promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, notify each Investor
who holds Registrable Securities being offered or sold pursuant to a particular
Registration Statement of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order or other
suspension of effectiveness of such Registration Statement at the earliest
possible time;

      

      (7) permit
the Investors who hold Registrable Securities being included in a particular
Registration Statement (or their designee) and their counsel to review and have
a reasonable opportunity to comment on such Registration Statement and any
related Prospectus and all amendments and supplements thereto at least two
Business Days prior to their filing with the SEC;

      

      (8) make
generally available to its security holders as soon as practical, but not later
than 90 days after the close of the period covered thereby, an earning statement
(in form complying with the provisions of Rule 158 under the 1933 Act) covering
a 12-month period beginning not later than the first day of the Company’s fiscal
quarter next following the SEC Effective Date of each Registration
Statement;

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -39-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (9) make
available for inspection by any Investor and any Inspector retained by such
Investor, at such Investor’s sole expense, all Records as shall be reasonably
necessary or appropriate to enable such Investor to exercise due diligence for
purposes of the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act as it relates to the Registration
Statement and cause the Company’s and the Subsidiaries officers, directors and
employees to supply all information which such Investor or Inspector may
reasonably request for purposes of such due diligence; provided, however,
that such
Investor shall hold in confidence and shall not make any disclosure of any
Record or other information which the Company determines in good faith to be
confidential, and of which determination such Investor is so notified, unless
(i) the disclosure of such Record is necessary to avoid or correct a
misstatement or omission in a Registration Statement or Prospectus and a
reasonable time prior to such disclosure the Investor shall have notified the
Company of the need to so correct such misstatement or omission and the Company
shall have failed to correct such misstatement or omission, (ii) the release of
such Record is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court or
governmental body of competent jurisdiction or (iii) the information in such
Record has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure
in violation of this or any other agreement. The Company shall not be required
to disclose any confidential information in such Records to any Inspector until
and unless such Inspector shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement
with the Company with respect thereto, substantially in the form of this Section
8(b)(9), which agreement shall permit such Inspector to disclose Records to the
Investor who has retained such Inspector. Each Investor agrees that it shall,
upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in or by a court or
governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt
notice to the Company and allow the Company, at the Company’s expense, to
undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective
order for, the Records deemed confidential. The Company shall hold in confidence
and shall not make any disclosure of information concerning an Investor provided
to the Company pursuant to this Agreement unless (i) the disclosure of such
information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws, (ii)
the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a
misstatement or omission in a Registration Statement or the related Prospectus,
(iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other
order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction, or (iv) such
information has been made generally available to the public other than by
disclosure in violation of this or any other agreement. The Company agrees that
it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning an
Investor is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent
jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to such Investor and
allow such Investor, at such Investor’s expense, to undertake appropriate action
to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such
information;

      

      (10) use its
best efforts to cause all the Registrable Securities covered by a particular
Registration Statement as of the SEC Effective Date of such Registration
Statement to be listed, quoted or traded on the principal securities market on
which securities of the same class or series issued by the Company are then
listed, quoted or traded;

      

      (11) provide a
transfer agent and registrar, which may be a single entity, for the Registrable
Securities at all times;

      

      (12) cooperate
with the Investors who hold Registrable Securities being offered pursuant to a
particular Registration Statement to facilitate the timely preparation and
delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legends) representing
Registrable Securities to be offered pursuant to such Registration Statement and
enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts as the Investors
may reasonably request and registered in such names as the Investors may
request; and, not later than the SEC Effective Date of such Registration
Statement, the Company shall cause legal counsel selected by the Company to
deliver to the Investors whose Registrable Securities are included in the
Registration Statement opinions of counsel in form and substance as is
customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering;

      

      (13) advise
the Investors in writing on the date that the Registration Statement is declared
effective by the SEC that the form of Prospectus contained in the Registration
Statement at the time of effectiveness meets the requirements of Section 10(a)
of the 1933 Act or that it intends to file a Prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b)
that meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the 1933 Act;

      

      (14) during
the Registration Period, the Company shall not bid for or purchase any Common
Stock or any right to purchase Common Stock or attempt to induce any Person to
purchase any such security or right if such bid, purchase or attempt would in
any way limit the right of the Investors to sell Registrable Securities by
reason of the limitations set forth in Regulation M under the 1934 Act;
and

      

      (15) take all
other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by the
Investors of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement
relating thereto.

      

      (c) Obligations of the Buyer and other
Investors.

      In
connection with the registration of the Registrable Securities, the Investors
shall have the following obligations:

      

      (1) It shall
be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the
registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable
Securities of a particular Investor that such Investor shall furnish to the
Company completed Selling Securityholder Questionnaire in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit A and
shall execute such other documents in connection with such registration as the
Company may reasonably request.

      

      (2) Each
Investor by such Investor’s acceptance of the Registrable Securities agrees to
cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection
with the preparation and filing of each Registration Statement hereunder that
covers such Registrable Securities, unless such Investor has notified the
Company of such Investor’s election to exclude all of such Investor’s
Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement;

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -40-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (3) Each
Investor agrees that it will not effect any disposition of the Registrable
Securities except as contemplated in the applicable Registration Statement or
Prospectus or as otherwise is in compliance with applicable securities laws and
that it will promptly notify the Company of any material changes in the
information set forth in the Registration Statement regarding such Investor or
its plan of distribution before selling any Registrable Securities pursuant to
such Registration Statement or Prospectus subsequent to such material change;
each Investor agrees (a) to notify the Company in writing in the event that such
Investor enters into any material agreement with a broker or a dealer for the
sale pursuant to a Registration Statement of Registrable Securities through a
block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or a purchase by a broker
or dealer and (b) in connection with such agreement, to provide to the Company
in writing the information necessary to prepare any supplemental Prospectus
pursuant to Rule 424(c) under the 1933 Act which is required with respect to
such transaction; and

      

      (4) Each
Investor acknowledges that there may occasionally be times as specified in
Section 8(b)(5) or 8(b)(6) when the Company must suspend the use of a Prospectus
until such time as an amendment to the related Registration Statement has been
filed by the Company and declared effective by the SEC, the Company has prepared
a supplement to such Prospectus or the Company has filed an appropriate report
with the SEC pursuant to the 1934 Act. Each Investor hereby covenants that it
will not sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to such Prospectus during the
period commencing at the time at which the Company gives such Investor notice of
the suspension of the use of such Prospectus in accordance with Section 8(b)(5)
or 8(b)(6) and ending at the time the Company gives such Investor notice that
such Investor may thereafter effect sales pursuant to the Prospectus, or until
the Company delivers to such Investor or files with the SEC an amended or
supplemented Prospectus.

      

      (d) Rule 144.

       With a
view to making available to each Investor the benefits of Rule 144, the Company
agrees:

      

      (1) so long
as any Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request of such
Investor, to furnish to such Investor such information as may be necessary to
permit such Investor to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 without
registration and otherwise reasonably to cooperate with such Investor
and

      

      (2) if at any
time the Company is not required by applicable law or this Agreement to file
reports with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act, to use its
best efforts, upon the request of an Investor, to make publicly available other
information so long as is necessary to permit publication by brokers and dealers
of quotations for the Common Stock and sales of the Registrable Securities in
accordance with Rule 15c2-11 under the 1934 Act.

      

      9. INDEMNIFICATION AND
CONTRIBUTION.

      

      (a) Indemnification.

      (1) To
the extent not prohibited by applicable law, the Company will indemnify and hold
harmless each Indemnified Person against any Claims to which any of them may
become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such
Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon any Violation. Subject to the
restrictions set forth in Section 9(a)(3) with respect to the number of legal
counsel, the Company shall reimburse the Investors and each such controlling
Person, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any
documented reasonable legal fees or other documented and reasonable expenses
incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification
agreement contained in this Section 9(a)(1) shall not apply to: (I) a Claim
arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in
conformity with information relating to an Indemnified Person furnished in
writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person or an underwriter for such
Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of any
Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto; (II)
any Claim arising out of or based on any statement or omission in any
Prospectus, which statement or omission was corrected in any subsequent
Prospectus that was delivered to the Indemnified Person prior to the pertinent
sale or sales of Registrable Securities by such Indemnified Person; and (III)
amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without
the prior written consent of the Company. Such indemnity shall remain in full
force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the
Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of the Registrable Securities
by the Investors.

      

      (2) In
connection with each Registration Statement, each Investor who is named as a
selling stockholder in such Registration Statement agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless, to the same extent and in the same manner set forth in Section
9(a)(1), each Indemnified Party against any Claim to which any of them may
become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such
Claim arises out of or is based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent
(and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Investor
expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement or any
amendment thereof or supplement thereto; and such Investor will reimburse any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with
investigating or defending any such Claim; provided,
however, that
the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 9(a)(2) shall not apply to
amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without
the prior written consent of such Investor; provided,
further,
however, that an
Investor shall be liable under this Section 9(a)(2) for only that amount of all
Claims in the aggregate as does not exceed the amount by which the proceeds to
such Investor as a result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such
Registration Statement exceeds the amount paid by such Investor for such
Registrable Securities or for the Common Stock Equivalents pursuant to which
such Registrable Securities were issued, as the case may be. Such indemnity
shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or
on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of the
Registrable Securities by the Investors. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this
Section 9(a)(2) with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to
the benefit of any Indemnified Party if the untrue statement or omission of
material fact contained in such preliminary prospectus was corrected on a timely
basis in the related Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented.

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -41-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      (3) Promptly
after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this Section
9(a) of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental
action), such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall, if a Claim in
respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section
9(a), deliver to the indemnifying party a notice of the commencement thereof and
the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the
extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying
party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party, as
the case may be; provided,
however, that an
Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own
counsel with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if, in
the reasonable opinion of counsel retained by the indemnifying party, the
representation by such counsel of the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party
and the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential
differing interests between such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party and any
other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding, in which case the
indemnifying party shall not be responsible for more than one such separate
counsel, and one local counsel in each jurisdiction in which an action is
pending, for all Indemnified Persons or Indemnified Parties, as the case may be.
The failure to deliver notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time
of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party
of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party under this
Section 9(a), except to the extent that the indemnifying party is prejudiced in
its ability to defend such action. The indemnification required by this Section
9(a) shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course
of the investigation or defense, as such expense, loss, damage or liability is
incurred and is due and payable.

      

      (b) Contribution.

      To the
extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party as set forth in Section 9(a)
above is applicable by its terms but is prohibited or limited by law, the
indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any
amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 9(a) to the fullest
extent permitted by law. In determining the amount of contribution to which the
respective parties are entitled, there shall be considered the relative fault of
each party, the parties’ relative knowledge of and access to information
concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted, the
opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission and any other
equitable considerations appropriate under the circumstances; provided,
however, that
(a) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would not
have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in
Section 9(a), (b) no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from
any other Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation and (c)
the aggregate contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be
limited to the amount by which the proceeds received by such seller from the
sale of such Registrable Securities exceeds the amount paid by such Investor for
such Registrable Securities or for the Common Stock Equivalents pursuant to
which such Registrable Securities were issued, as the case may be.

      

      (c) Other
Rights.

      The
indemnification and contribution provided in this Section shall be in addition
to any other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.

      

      
        
          
          

        

        
          -42-

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

      10. MISCELLANEOUS.

      

      (a)  Governing
Law.

      THIS
AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF
THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

      

      (b) Headings.

       The

shall be automatically assigned by such Investor to any transferee of all or any
portion of such Investor’s Registrable Securities (or all or any portion of the
Note or the Warrants) if: (1) such Investor agrees in writing with such
transferee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to
the Company within a reasonable time after such assignment, (2) the Company is,
within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with notice of (A) the
name and address of such transferee and (B) the securities with respect to which
such rights and obligations are being transferred, (3) in the case of assignment
of rights under Section 8, immediately following such transfer or assignment the
further disposition of Registrable Securities by the transferee or assignee is
restricted under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws, (4) at or
before the time the Company received the notice contemplated by clause (2) of
this sentence the transferee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound with
respect to such assigned securities by such of the provisions contained in
Sections 5(a), 5(b), 8, 9, and 10 hereof as shall have been so assigned to such
transferee and (5) if Section 5(a) shall be applicable to such transfer, such
Investor shall have complied with Section 5(a). Upon any such transfer, the

under Sections 5(a), 5(b), 8, 9, and 10 of this Agreement, to the extent the
same have been so assigned to such transferee, as if such transferee were the
Buyer. In connection with any such transfer the Company shall, at its sole cost
and expense, promptly after such transfer take such actions as shall be
reasonably acceptable to the transferring Investor and such transferee to assure
that each Registration Statement and related Prospectus for which the
transferring Investor is a selling stockholder are or become available for use
by such transferee for sales of the Registrable Securities in respect of which
such rights and obligations have been so transferred.

disposing of or voting any of the Shares. The Company hereby confirms that it
understands and agrees that the Buyer is not acting as part of any such group.

enter into this Agreement, purchase the Note, acquire the Warrants or otherwise
in connection with the Transaction Documents, and such legal counsel are not
acting as the Buyer’s legal counsel in connection therewith.

      Re:

      Ladies
and Gentlemen:

       

      We have
acted as counsel to eMagin Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),

(the "Buyers"). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein
shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in the Agreements.
This opinion is being delivered to you pursuant to Section 7(n) of the
Agreements.

       

      In so
acting, we have examined originals or copies (certified or otherwise identified

between the Company and the Lockbox Agent named therein (the "Lockbox
Agreement"), and such corporate records, agreements, documents and other

and of officers and representatives of the Company, and have made such inquiries
of such officers and representatives, as we have deemed relevant and necessary
as a basis for the opinions hereinafter set forth. The Agreements, the Notes,

          2

      As to
certain questions of fact material to this opinion, we have relied upon
statements or certificates of public officials and officers of the
Company.

       

      Whenever
a statement herein is qualified by "to our knowledge" or similar phrase, it
means that, during the course of our representation of the Company for the
purposes of this opinion letter, (1) no information that would give those
lawyers who participated in the preparation of the letter (collectively, the
"Opinion Letter Participants") current actual knowledge of the inaccuracy of
such statement has come to their attention; (2) we have not undertaken any
independent investigation or inquiry to determine the accuracy of such
statement; (3) any limited investigation or inquiry otherwise undertaken by the
Opinion Letter Participants during the preparation of this opinion letter
should–not be regarded as such an investigation or inquiry; and (4) no inference
as to our knowledge of any matters bearing on the accuracy of any such statement
should be drawn from the fact of our representation of the Company. We also call
to your attention to the fact that we are not general counsel to the Company and
we are not familiar with all aspects of the Company's business affairs. We have
not conducted an independent audit of the Company or its files.

       

       

      
        
          
          

        

        
          3

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

       

       

      The
validity, binding effect and enforceability of Transaction Documents may be
limited or otherwise affected by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar statutes, rules, regulations
or other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights and remedies
generally and (b) the unavailability of, or limitation on the availability of, a
particular right or remedy (whether in a proceeding in equity or at law) because
of an equitable principle or a requirement as to commercial reasonableness,
conscionability or good faith. In addition, certain remedies, waivers and other
provisions contained in the Transaction Documents might not be enforceable;
nevertheless, such unenforceability will not render such agreements invalid as a
whole or preclude the practical realization of the benefits to the Secured Party
thereunder. We express no opinions as to the application of the laws of usury to
the Transaction Documents.

       

      Based on
the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications stated herein, we are of the
opinion that:

       

      1. The
Company and each Subsidiary is a corporation duly organized, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and has
all requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its
properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted.

       

      2. The
Company has all necessary corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and
perform its obligations under each of the the Transaction Documents and to
consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.

       

      3. The
Transaction Documents have been duly and validly authorized, executed and
delivered by the Company and (assuming the due authorization, execution and
delivery thereof by the other parties thereto) constitute the legal, valid and
binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance with
there respective terms, subject, as to enforceability, to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws
affecting creditors' rights and remedies generally and subject to general
principles of equity, whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in
equity.

       

      4. The
Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued upon conversion of the Notes
in accordance with the terms of the Notes or upon exercise of the Warrants in
accordance with the tern-is of the Warrants, as the case may be, will be validly
issued, fully-paid and non-assessable.

       

       

      
        
          
          

        

        
          4

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

       

       

      5.
Assuming the representations and warranties of the Buyers in Section 3 of the
Agreements are true and correct, the Notes and the Warrants may be offered and
issued to the Buyers pursuant to the Agreements, the Conversion Shares may be
offered and issued to the Buyers upon conversion of the Notes, and the Warrant
Shares may be offered and issued to the Buyers upon exercise of the Warrants, in
each such case, without registration under the 1933 Act.

       

      6. The
execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Company, and the
consummation by the Company of the issuance of the Securities and the other
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents do not and will not, with
or without the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, (i) result in any
violation of any term of the Certificate of Incorporation or by-laws of the
Company or any Subsidiary, (ii) violate or contravene any applicable law, rule
or regulation or any applicable decree, judgment or order of any court, United
States federal or state regulatory body, administrative agency or other
governmental body having jurisdiction over the Company or any Subsidiary or any
of their respective properties or assets or (iii) have any material adverse
effect on any permit, certification, registration, approval, consent, license or
franchise necessary for the Company or any Subsidiary to own or lease and
operate any of its properties and to conduct any of its businesses or the
ability of the Company or any Subsidiary to make use thereof.

       

      7.
Assuming the representations and warranties of the Buyers in Section 3 of the
Agreements are true and correct, no authorization, approval or consent of, or
filing with, any court, governmental body, regulatory agency, self-regulatory
organization, or stock exchange or market or the stockholders of the Company is
required to be obtained or made by the Company for the offer, issuance and sale
of the Notes and the offer and issuance of the Warrants as contemplated by the
Agreements or the offer and issuance of the Conversion Shares upon conversion of
the Notes in accordance with the terms thereof or the offer and issuance of the
Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with the terms
thereof except such as have been obtained or made and other than (a) the filing
pursuant to the Agreements of a Registration Statement with the SEC covering the
resale of the Shares (b) such as may be required under the securities or "blue
sky" laws of certain jurisdictions (as to which we express no opinion) and (c)
the Form D to be filed by the Company with the SEC.

       

      8. The
Security Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for
the benefit of the holders from time to time of the Notes, as secured party,
valid security interests in the Collateral (as defined in the Security
Agreement) including, without limitation, the funds and proceeds from time to
time deposited or held in the Collateral Account (as defined in the Lockbox
Agreement), as security for the Obligations (as defined in the Security
Agreement), financing statements in proper form covering such security interests
will be duly filed in the offices listed on Schedule I hereto, and when filed,
such security interests in the Collateral will be perfected to the extent that
security interests in such Collateral may be perfected by the filing of
financing statements under the Uniform Commercial Code. Our opinions expressed
above are specifically subject to the following limitations, exceptions,
qualifications and assumptions:

       

      
        
          
          

        

        
          5

          
            

          

        

        
          
          

        

      

       

       

      A. The
effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar
laws relating to or affecting the relief of debtors or the rights and remedies
of creditors generally, including without limitation the effect of statutory or
other law regarding fraudulent conveyances and preferential
transfers.

       

      B.
Limitations imposed by state law, federal law or general equitable principles
upon the specific enforceability of any of the remedies, covenants or other
provisions of any applicable agreement and upon the availability of injunctive
relief or other equitable remedies, regardless of whether enforcement of any
such agreement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

       

      We are
counsel admitted to practice in the State of New York and we do not express any
opinion with respect to the effect or applicability of the laws of any
jurisdiction, other than the laws of the State of New York, Delaware General
Corporation Law and the federal laws of the United States of America. In
furnishing the opinion regarding the valid existence and good standing of the
Company, we have relied solely upon a good standing certificate issued by the
Secretary of State of Delaware on June 27, 2006.

       

      This
opinion is rendered as of the date first written above, is solely for your
benefit in connection with the Agreements and may not be relief upon or used by,
circulated, quoted, or referred to nor may any copies hereof by delivered to any
other person without our prior written consent. We disclaim any obligation to
update this opinion letter or to advise you of facts, circumstances, events or
developments which hereafter may be brought to our attention and which may
alter, affect or modify the opinions expressed herein.
