              Maturity
      Date

            

    

     

    The entire principal balance of this
Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees, shall be due and
payable on or before February 15, 2010 (“Maturity Date”), unless otherwise

              5.

            	
              Additional

              6.

            	
              Prepayment; Subsequent
      Financing.

            

    

     

    Borrower may prepay the whole or any
portion of this Note on any date, upon notice to Lender.  Lender shall
be entitled to receive repayment in full of Borrower’s obligations hereunder out
of any funds of Borrower within five (5) days of the closing of any subsequent
financing of Borrower (whether completed as a debt or equity
financing).

     

    
      	
              7.

            	
              Late
      Charge

            

    

     

    If any required payment, including the
final payment due on the maturity date, is not paid within 15 days from and
including the date upon which it was due (whether by acceleration or otherwise),
then, in each such event, all past due amounts shall be subject to a late
penalty of five (.05) cents on every dollar owed (the “late
penalty”).  This late penalty shall be in addition to any other
interest due as provided for in Paragraph 2 and in addition to all other rights
and remedies provided herein or by law for the benefit of the holder on a
default.  The acceptance of any payment by the holder of the Note
shall not act to restrict the holder at all in exercising any other rights under
the Note or the law, to waive or release Borrower from any obligations contained
herein, or to extend the time for payments due under this Note.

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    
      	
              8.

            	
              Default and
      Remedies

            

    

     

    If Borrower fails to pay principal on
the date on which it falls due or to perform any of the agreements, conditions,
covenants, provisions, or stipulations contained in this Note, then Lender, at
its option and without notice to Borrower, may declare immediately due and
payable the entire unpaid balance of principal with interest from the date of
default at the rate of 12% per year and all other sums due by Borrower hereunder
anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.  Payment of this sum
may be enforced and recovered in whole or in part at any time by one or more of
the remedies provided to Lender in this Note.  In that case, Lender
also may recover all costs in connection with suit, a reasonable attorney’s fee
for collection, and interest on any judgment obtained by Lender at the rate of
12% per year.

     

    The remedies of Lender and the warrants
provided in this Note shall be cumulative and concurrent, and they may be
pursued singly, successively, or together at the sole discretion of
Lender.  They may be exercised as often as occasion shall occur, and
failing to exercise one shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release of
it.

     

    
      	
              9.

            	
              Attorneys’ Fees and
      Costs

            

    

     

    Borrower shall pay all attorneys fees
in connection with the preparation of this Note.

     

    If Lender engages any attorney to
enforce or construe any provision of this Note, or as a consequence of any
default whether or not any legal action is filed, Borrower immediately shall pay
on demand all reasonable attorneys’ fees and other Lender’s costs, together with
interest from the date of demand until paid at the highest rate of interest then
applicable to the unpaid principal, as if the unpaid attorneys’ fees and costs
had been added to the principal.

     

    
      	
              10.

            	
              Waivers

            

    

     

    (a)           Borrower
hereby waives and releases all benefit that might accrue to Borrower by virtue
of any present or future laws of exemption with regard to real or personal
property or any part of the proceeds arising from any sale of that property,
from attachment, levy, or sale under execution, or providing for any stay of
execution, exemption from civil process, or extension of time for
payment.  Borrower agrees that any real estate that may be levied on
under a judgment obtained by virtue hereof, on any writ of execution issued
thereon, may be sold on any writ in whole or in part in any order desired by
Lender.

     

    (b)           Borrower
and all endorsers, sureties, and guarantors jointly and severally waive
presentment for payment, demand, notice of demand, notice of nonpayment or
dishonor, protest, notice of protest of this Note, and all other notices in
connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default, or enforcement
of the payment of this Note.  They agree that each shall have
unconditional liability without regard to the liability of any other party and
that they shall not be affected in any manner by any indulgence, extension of
time, renewal, waiver, or modification granted or consented to by
Lender.  Borrower and all endorsers, sureties, and guarantors consent
to any and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers, or modifications that may
be granted by Lender with respect to the payment or other provisions of this
Note, and to the release of any collateral or any part thereof, with or without
substitution, and they agree that additional borrowers, endorsers, guarantors,
or sureties may become parties hereto without notice to them or affecting their
liability hereunder.

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    (c)           Lender
shall not be considered by any act of omission or commission to have waived any
of its rights or remedies hereunder, unless such waiver is in writing and signed
by Lender, and then only to the extent specifically set forth in
writing.  A waiver on one event shall not be construed as continuing
or as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy to a subsequent
event.

     

    
      	
              11.

            	
              Release.

            

    

     

    Lender hereby remises, releases, and
forever discharges the Borrower, its affiliates, subsidiaries, officers,
directors, employees and agents of and from all, and all manner of, actions,
causes of action, suits, proceedings, debts, dues, contracts, judgments,
damages, claims, and demands whatsoever in law or equity, which the Lender ever
had, now has, or which its successors or assigns, hereafter can, shall, or may
have for or by reason of any matter, cause, or thing whatsoever, arising from
the Lender’s participation as either a lender or shareholder of
Borrower  prior to the date hereof.

     

    
      	
              12.

            	
              Notices

            

    

     

    All notices required under or in
connection with this Note shall be delivered or sent by certified or registered
mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to the addresses set forth in
Paragraph 1 hereof, or to another address that any party may designate from time
to time by notice to the others in the manner set forth herein.  All
notices shall be considered to have been given or made either at the time of
delivery thereof to an officer or employee or on the third business day
following the time of mailing in the aforesaid manner.

     

    
      	
              13.

            	
              Costs and
      Expenses

            

    

     

    Borrower shall pay the cost of any
revenue tax or other stamps now or hereafter required by law at any time to be
affixed to this Note.

     

    
      	
              14.

            	
              No Partnership or
      Joint Venture

            

    

     

    Nothing contained in this Note or
elsewhere shall be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture between
Lender and Borrower or between Lender and any other person or as causing the
holder of the Note to be responsible in any way for the debts or obligations of
Borrower or any other person.

     

    
      	
              15.

            	
              Interest Rate
      Limitation

            

    

     

    Notwithstanding anything contained
herein to the contrary, the holder hereof shall never be entitled to collect or
apply as interest on this obligation any amount in excess of the maximum rate of
interest permitted to be charged by applicable law.  If the holder of
this Note ever collects or applies as interest any such excess, the excess
amount shall be applied to reduce the principal debt; and if the principal debt
is paid in full, any remaining excess shall be paid forthwith to Borrower. In
determining whether the interest paid or payable in any specific case exceeds
the highest lawful rate, the holder and Borrower shall to the maximum extent
permitted under applicable law (a) characterize any non-principal payment as an
expense, fee, or premium rather than as interest; (b) exclude voluntary
prepayments and the effects of these; and (c) spread the total amount of
interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the obligation so that the
interest rate is uniform throughout the term.  Nothing in this
paragraph shall be considered to increase the total dollar amount of interest
payable under this Note.

    
      
         

      

      
         

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

     

    
      	
              16.

            	
              Obligations of the
      Persons Under this Note

            

    

     

    If more than one person signs this
Note, each person is fully and personally obligated to keep all of the promises
made in this Note, including the promise to pay the full amount
owed.  Any person who is a guarantor, surety or endorser of this Note
is also obligated to do these things. Any person who takes over these
obligations, including the obligations of a guarantor, surety or endorser of
this Note is also obligated to keep all of the promises made in this
Note.  The Note Holder may enforce its rights under this Note against
each person individually or against all of us together.  This means
that any one of us may be required to pay all of the amounts owed under this
Note.

     

    
      	
              17.

            	
              Modification

            

    

     

    In the
event this Note is pledged or collaterally assigned by Lender at any time or
from time to time before the maturity date, neither Borrower nor Lender shall
permit any modification of this Note without the consent of the
pledgee/assignee.

     

    
      	
              18.

            	
              Number and
      Gender

            

    

     

    In this
Note the singular shall include the plural and the masculine shall include the
feminine and neuter gender, and vice versa, if the context so
requires.

     

    
      	
              19.

            	
              Headings

            

    

     

    Headings
at the beginning of each numbered paragraph of this Note are intended solely for
convenience of reference and are not to be construed as being a part of the
Note.

     

    
      	
              20.

            	
              Time of
      Essence

            

    

     

    Time is
of the essence with respect to every provision of this Note.

     

    
      	
              21.

            	
              Governing
      Law

shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of

    REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES

     

    3.1         Representations and
Warranties of the Company.  Except as set forth under the
corresponding section of the Disclosure Schedules, which Disclosure Schedules
may be updated in connection with any Subsequent Closing and which shall be
deemed a part hereof, the Company hereby makes the representations and
warranties set forth below to Seaside as of the date hereof and as of each
Closing Date:

     

    (a)         Subsidiaries.  All
of the direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company are listed in the
Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K as modified by any subsequent
SEC Reports filed with the SEC (each a “Subsidiary”).  The
Company owns, directly or indirectly, all of the capital stock or other equity
interests of each Subsidiary free and clear of any Liens, and all the issued and
outstanding shares of capital stock of each Subsidiary are validly issued and
are fully paid, non-assessable and free of preemptive and similar rights to
subscribe for or purchase securities.  If the Company has no
subsidiaries, then references in the Transaction Documents to the Subsidiaries
will be disregarded.

    
      
         

      

      
        6

        
          

        

      

      
         

      

    

    (b)         Organization and
Qualification.  The Company and each of the Subsidiaries is an
entity duly incorporated or otherwise organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization
(as applicable) (to the extent the “good standing” concept is applicable in the
case of any jurisdiction outside the United States), except where the failure to
be in good standing could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect, with the requisite power and authority to own, lease and use its
properties and assets and to carry on its business as currently
conducted.  Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation or
default of any of the provisions of its respective certificate or articles of
incorporation, bylaws or other organizational or charter
documents.  Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries is duly qualified
to conduct business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other
entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or
property owned by it makes such qualification necessary (to the extent the “good
standing” concept is applicable in the case of any jurisdiction outside the
United States), except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing,
as the case may be, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect and, to the knowledge of the Company, no Proceeding has been
instituted in any such jurisdiction revoking, limiting or curtailing or seeking
to revoke, limit or curtail such power and authority or
qualification.

     

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

     

    (d)         No
Conflicts.  The execution, delivery and performance of the
Transaction Documents by the Company, the issuance and sale of the Shares at
each Closing and the consummation by the Company of the other transactions
contemplated thereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or violate any
provision of the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s certificate or articles of
incorporation, bylaws or other organizational or charter documents, or (ii)
conflict with, violate or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or
lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or result in the creation
of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of the Company or any
Subsidiary pursuant to, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment,
acceleration or cancellation (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) of,
any agreement (written or oral), credit facility, debt or other instrument
(evidencing a Company or Subsidiary debt or otherwise) to which the Company or
any Subsidiary is a party or by which any property or asset of the Company or
any Subsidiary is bound or affected, or (iii) subject to the Required Approvals,
conflict with or result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order,
judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction of any court or governmental
authority to which the Company or a Subsidiary is subject (including federal and
state securities laws and regulations), or by which any property or asset of the
Company or a Subsidiary is bound or affected, except in the case of each of
clauses (ii) and (iii), such as could not reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect.

    (e)         Filings, Consents and
Approvals.  The Company is not required to obtain any consent,
waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or
registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other
governmental authority, the Trading Market or other Person in connection with
the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Transaction
Documents, other than (i) the filing of the Prospectus Supplement and (ii) any
notice filings or SEC Reports as are required to be made following each Closing
Date under applicable federal and state securities laws or under applicable
rules and regulations of the Trading Market (collectively, the “Required
Approvals”).

     

    (f)         Issuance of the
Shares.  The Shares are duly authorized and, when issued and
paid for in accordance with the Transaction Documents, will be duly and validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free and clear of all
Liens.  The Company has reserved from its duly authorized capital
stock the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to this
Agreement.  The issuance by the Company to Seaside, or the resale by
Seaside, of the Shares has been registered under the Securities Act and all of
the Shares when delivered will be freely transferable and tradable on the
Trading Market by Seaside without restriction (other than any restrictions
arising solely from an act or omission of Seaside).  The Registration
Statement is effective and available for the issuance or resale of the Shares
thereunder and the Company has not received any notice that the Commission has
issued or intends to issue a stop-order with respect to the Registration
Statement or that the Commission otherwise has suspended or withdrawn the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement, either temporarily or permanently,
or intends or has threatened in writing to do so.  The “Plan of
Distribution” section under the Registration Statement as supplemented by the
Prospectus Supplement permits the issuance and sale or resale of the Shares
hereunder.

     

    (g)         Capitalization.  The
capitalization of the Company is as set forth in the Registration
Statement.  The Company has not issued any capital stock since its
most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act, other than pursuant
to the exercise of employee stock options under the Company’s stock option
plans, the issuance of shares of Common Stock to employees pursuant to the
Company’s employee stock purchase plan and pursuant to the conversion or
exercise of outstanding Common Stock Equivalents, and as otherwise set forth in
the Disclosure Schedules.  No Person has any right of first refusal,
preemptive right, right of participation, or any similar right to participate in
the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.  Except as
disclosed in the SEC Reports or Section 3.1(g) of the Disclosure Schedules,
there are no outstanding options, warrants, rights to subscribe to, calls or
commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities, rights or
obligations convertible into or exchangeable for, or giving any Person any right
to subscribe for or acquire, any shares of Common Stock, or contracts,
commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any
Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional shares of Common Stock or
Common Stock Equivalents.  Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports or
Section 3.1(g) of the Disclosure Schedules, the issue and sale of the Shares
will not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other
securities to any Person (other than Seaside) and will not result in a right of
any holder of Company securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or
reset price under such securities.  All of the outstanding shares of
capital stock of the Company are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable,
have been issued in compliance with all federal and state securities laws and
requirements of the Trading Market, and none of such outstanding shares was
issued in violation of any preemptive rights or similar rights to subscribe for
or purchase securities.  No further approval or authorization of any
stockholder or the Board of Directors of the Company is required for the
issuance and sale of the Shares, other than the Required
Approvals.  There are no stockholders agreements, voting agreements or
other similar agreements with respect to the Company’s capital stock to which
the Company is a party or, to the knowledge of the Company, between or among any
of the Company’s stockholders.

    (h)         SEC Reports; Financial
Statements. The Company has filed or furnished all reports, schedules,
forms, statements and other documents required to be filed or furnished by it
under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (including all required exhibits
thereto), including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) thereof, for the 12
months preceding the date hereof (or such shorter period as the Company was
required by law to file such material) (the foregoing materials, as the same may
be amended, and including the exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by
reference therein, being collectively referred to herein as the “SEC Reports”) and any
notices, reports or other filings pursuant to applicable requirements of the
Trading Market on a timely basis or has received a valid extension of such time
of filing, and has filed any such SEC Reports and notices, reports or other
filings pursuant to applicable requirements of the Trading Market prior to the
expiration of any such extension.  As of their respective dates, the
SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the applicable requirements
of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the
Commission promulgated thereunder, and none of the SEC Reports, when filed,
contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading.  The financial statements of the Company included in the
SEC Reports comply in all material respects with applicable accounting
requirements and the rules and regulations of the Commission with respect
thereto as in effect at the time of filing.  Such financial statements
(i) have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted
accounting principles applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved
(“GAAP”),
except as may be otherwise specified in such financial statements or the notes
thereto and except that unaudited financial statements may not contain all
footnotes required by GAAP, and (ii) fairly present in all material respects the
financial position of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of and
for the dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the
periods then ended, subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal,
year-end audit adjustments.

     

    (i) 
        Material
Changes.  Since the date of the latest audited financial
statements included within the SEC Reports, except as specifically disclosed in
the SEC Reports, (i) there has been no event, occurrence or development that has
had or that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect,
except as has been reasonably cured by the Company, (ii) the Company has not
incurred any liabilities (contingent or otherwise) other than (A) trade payables
and accrued expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with
past practice and (B) liabilities not required to be reflected in the Company’s
financial statements pursuant to GAAP or required to be disclosed in filings
made with the Commission, (iii) the Company has not altered its method of
accounting except as otherwise pursuant to GAAP, (iv) the Company has not
declared or made any dividend or distribution of cash or other property to its
stockholders or purchased, redeemed or made any agreements to purchase or redeem
any shares of its capital stock and (v) the Company has not issued any equity
securities to any officer, director or Affiliate, except pursuant to existing
Company stock option and incentive plans.

     

    
      
        
           

        

        
          9

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

    

    (j)         Litigation.  Except
as disclosed in the SEC Reports, there is no Proceeding pending or, to the
knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company, any
Subsidiary or any of their respective properties before or by any court,
arbitrator, governmental or administrative agency or regulatory authority
(federal, state, county, local or foreign) which (i) adversely affects or
challenges the legality, validity or enforceability of any of the Transaction
Documents or the Shares or (ii) could, if there were an unfavorable decision,
have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.  Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, nor, to the knowledge
of the Company, any director or officer thereof (in his or her capacity as
such), is or has been the subject of any Proceeding involving a claim or
violation of or liability under federal or state securities laws or a claim of
breach of fiduciary duty. There has not been and, to the knowledge of the
Company, there is not currently pending or contemplated, any investigation by
the Commission involving the Company or any current or former director or
officer of the Company (in his or her capacity as such).  The
Commission has not issued any stop order or other order suspending the
effectiveness of any registration statement filed by the Company or any
Subsidiary under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act and, to the Company’s
knowledge, no proceeding for such purpose is pending before or threatened by the
Commission.

     

    (k)         Compliance.  Neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary (i) is in default under or in violation of (and
no event has occurred that has not been waived that, with notice or lapse of
time or both, could reasonably be expected to result in a default by the Company
or any Subsidiary under), nor has the Company or any Subsidiary received notice
of a claim that it is in default under or that it is in violation of, any
indenture, loan or credit agreement or any other agreement or instrument to
which it is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound (whether or
not such default or violation has been waived), (ii) is in violation of any
order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body, or (iii) is in violation of
any statute, rule or regulation of any governmental authority or the Trading
Market, including without limitation all foreign, federal, state and local laws
applicable to its business, except in each case as would not have a Material
Adverse Effect.

     

    (l)         Listing and Maintenance
Requirements.  The Company’s Common Stock is registered
pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, and the Company has taken no
action designed to, or which to its knowledge is likely to have the effect of,
terminating the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act, nor has
the Company received any notification that the Commission is contemplating
terminating such registration.  The Company has not, in the 12 months
preceding the date hereof or any Closing Date, received notice from any Trading
Market on which the Common Stock is or has been listed or quoted (as applicable)
to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or
quotation (as applicable) and maintenance requirements of such Trading
Market.  The Company is, and immediately after the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby will be, in compliance with all such listing or
quotation (as applicable) and maintenance requirements.

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

    (n)        Effective Registration
Statement.  The Registration Statement has been declared
effective by the Commission and remains effective as of the date hereof and the
Company knows of no reason why the Registration Statement will not continue to
remain effective for the foreseeable future.  The Company is eligible
to use Form S-3 registration statements for the issuance of
securities.

     

    (o)        Acknowledgment Regarding
Seaside’s Purchase of Shares.  The Company acknowledges and
agrees that Seaside is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length
purchaser with respect to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.  The Company further
acknowledges that Seaside is not acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of
the Company (or in any similar capacity) with respect to this Agreement or the
other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby
and any advice given by Seaside or any of its representatives or agents in
connection with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby is merely incidental to Seaside’s
purchase of the Shares.  The Company further represents to Seaside
that the Company’s decision to enter into this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents has been based solely on the independent evaluation of the
transactions contemplated thereby by the Company and its
representatives.

     

    (p)        Approvals.  The
issuance and listing or quotation (as applicable) on the Trading Market of the
Shares requires no further approvals, including but not limited to, the approval
of stockholders.

     

    (q)        Intellectual
Property.  The Company possesses such right, title and interest
in and to, or possesses adequate rights to use, all patents, patent rights,
trade secrets, inventions, know-how, trademarks, trade names, copyrights,
service marks and other proprietary rights (“Intellectual
Property”) material to the conduct of the Company’s business except
Intellectual Property the failure of which to possess would not have a Material
Adverse Effect.  Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, the Company
has not received any notice of infringement, misappropriation or conflict from
any third party as to Intellectual Property owned by or exclusively licensed to
the Company that has not been resolved or disposed of, which infringement,
misappropriation or conflict would if adversely decided have a Material Adverse
Effect.  To the Company’s knowledge, it has not infringed,
misappropriated, or otherwise conflicted with the Intellectual Property of any
third parties, which infringement, misappropriation or conflict would if
adversely decided have a Material Adverse Effect.

    (r)         Permits.  The
Company has made all filings, applications and submissions required by, and possesses all
approvals, licenses, certificates, certifications, clearances, consents,
exemptions, marks, notifications, orders, permits and other authorizations
issued by, the appropriate federal, state or foreign regulatory authorities
necessary to own or lease its properties and to conduct its businesses
(collectively, “Permits”), except for
such Permits the failure of which to possess or obtain would not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The Company has not
received any written notice of proceedings relating to the limitation,
revocation, cancellation, suspension, modification or non-renewal of any such
Permit which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable
decision, ruling or finding, would have a Material Adverse Effect, and has no
reason to believe that any such Permit will not be renewed in the ordinary
course.

     

    (s)         Disclosure.  The
Company confirms that neither the Company nor any officer, director or employee
of the Company acting on its behalf (as such term is used in Regulation FD) has
provided Seaside or its agents or counsel with any information that constitutes
or might reasonably be expected to constitute material, non-public information
except insofar as the existence and terms of the proposed transactions hereunder
may constitute such information.  The Company understands and confirms
that Seaside will rely on the foregoing representations and covenants in
effecting transactions in securities of the Company.  None of the
representations and warranties of the Company contained herein, nor any
statement made by the Company in any disclosure, schedule, exhibit, certificate
or other document furnished or to be furnished to Seaside in connection
herewith, contains or will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading.

     

    3.2         Representations and
Warranties of Seaside.  Seaside hereby makes the
representations and warranties set forth below to the Company:

     

    (a)         Organization;
Authority.  Seaside is a limited partnership duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of Florida,
with full right, power and authority to own and use its properties and assets
and to carry on its business as currently conducted and to enter into and to
consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and
thereunder.  The execution, delivery and performance by Seaside of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and each other Transaction Document
have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of Seaside and no
such further action is required.  Each Transaction Document to which
Seaside is a party has been (or upon delivery will have been) duly executed by
Seaside, and, when delivered by Seaside in accordance with the terms thereof,
will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of Seaside, enforceable
against it in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by general
equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of
creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the
availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable
remedies and (iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions may be
limited by applicable law.

     

    (b)         Experience of
Seaside.  Seaside, 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 Shares, and has so evaluated the merits and
risks of such investment.  Seaside is able to bear the economic risk
of an investment in the Shares and, at the present time, is able to afford a
complete loss of such investment.

    (c)         Short
Sales.  Seaside has not directly or indirectly executed any
Short Sales or other hedging transactions in the securities of the Company
through the date hereof.

    OTHER
AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES

     

    4.1           No Transfer
Restrictions.  Certificates evidencing the Shares shall not
contain any legend restricting their transferability by Seaside.  The
Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Company’s
transfer agent if required by the Company’s transfer agent to effect a transfer
of any of the Shares; such opinion shall be provided by the Company’s counsel at
no expense to Seaside.

     

    4.2           Furnishing of
Information.  As long as Seaside owns Shares, the Company
covenants to use its best efforts to timely file (or obtain extensions in
respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports
required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to the
Exchange Act.  As long as Seaside owns Shares that are “restricted
securities” as that term is defined in Rule 144 that it has owned for less than
one year in accordance with Rule 144(d), if the Company is not required to file
reports pursuant to the Exchange Act, it will prepare and furnish to Seaside and
make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such information as is
required for Seaside to sell the Shares under Rule 144.

     

    4.3           Securities Laws Disclosure;
Publicity.  The Company shall timely file a Current Report on
Form 8-K which attaches as exhibits all agreements relating to this transaction,
in each case reasonably acceptable to Seaside and its counsel, disclosing the
material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby.

     

    4.4           Shareholders Rights
Plan.  No claim will be made or enforced by the Company or,
with the consent of the Company, any other Person that Seaside is an “Acquiring
Person” or similar designation under any shareholders rights plan or similar
plan or arrangement in effect or hereafter adopted by the Company, or that
Seaside could be deemed to trigger the provisions of any such plan or
arrangement, by virtue of receiving Shares under the Transaction Documents or
under any other agreement between the Company and Seaside.  The
Company shall conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become
subject to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

     

    4.5           Non-Public
Information.  The Company covenants and agrees that neither it
nor any other Person acting on its behalf will provide Seaside or its agents or
counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes material
non-public information.  The Company understands and confirms that
Seaside shall be relying on the foregoing representations in effecting
transactions in securities of the Company.

    4.6           Indemnification of
Seaside.  Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.6, the
Company will indemnify and hold Seaside, Seaside’s Affiliates and their
respective directors, officers, stockholders, partners, members, employees and
agents (each, a “Seaside Party”)
harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, demands,
contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts
paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of
investigation reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating
any suit or action in respect thereof to which any Seaside Party is or may
become a party under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other federal
or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as
such losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, demands, contingencies, damages,
costs and expenses arise out of or are based on (a) any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration
Statement or any Prospectus Supplement, or (b) the omission or alleged omission
to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, provided that the
Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such
liability, obligation, claim, demand, contingency, damage, cost or expense
arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity
with written information furnished to the Company by and regarding Seaside
expressly for inclusion therein.  If any action shall be brought
against any Seaside Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant
to this Agreement, such Seaside Party shall promptly notify the Company in
writing, and the Company shall have the right to assume the defense thereof with
counsel of its own choosing.  Any Seaside Party shall have the right
to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense
thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of
such Seaside Party except to the extent that (i) the employment thereof has been
specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company has failed
after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel
or (iii) in such action there is, in the reasonable opinion of such separate
counsel, a material conflict on any material issue between the position of the
Company and the position of such Seaside Party.  The Company will not
be liable to any Seaside Party under this Agreement (x) for any settlement by a
Seaside Party effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (y) to the extent, but
only to the extent, that a loss, liability, obligation, claim, demand, damage,
cost or expense is attributable to any Seaside Party’s breach of any of the
representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by Seaside in this
Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents.

     

    4.7           Listing or Quotation of
Common Stock.  The Company hereby agrees to use its best
efforts to maintain the listing or quotation (as applicable) of the Common Stock
on its current Trading Market.  The Company further agrees that, if
the Company applies to have the Common Stock traded on any other Trading Market,
it will include in such application all of the Shares and will take such other
action as is necessary to cause all of the Shares to be listed on such other
Trading Market as promptly as possible.  The Company will take all
action reasonably necessary to continue the listing or quotation (as applicable)
and trading of its Common Stock on each Trading Market on which the Common Stock
is listed or quoted (as applicable) and will comply in all respects with the
Company’s reporting, filing and other obligations under the bylaws or rules of
such Trading Market(s).

     

    4.8           Stockholder
Approval.  The Company shall not issue shares of Common Stock
or Common Stock Equivalents, if such issuance would require stockholder approval
pursuant to applicable rules of the Trading Market, unless and until such
stockholder approval is obtained.

     

    4.9           Short
Sales.  Seaside covenants that neither it nor any Affiliates
acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will execute any
Short Sales in the securities of the Company from the date hereof until the
final Subsequent Closing contemplated hereby.

     

    4.10         Prospectus
Supplement.  The Company will use its best efforts to file the
Prospectus Supplement in accordance with the requirements of Rule 424
promulgated under the Securities Act on or before the Initial Closing Date and,
if required, before each Subsequent Closing Date.

    MISCELLANEOUS

     

    5.1         Termination.  This
Agreement may be terminated:

     

    (a)        by
Seaside, by written notice to the Company, if the Initial Closing has not been
consummated on or before January 15, 2010,

     

    (b)        by
Seaside, immediately upon written notice to the Company, if at any time prior to
the final Subsequent Closing Date the Company consummates a financing to which
Seaside is not a party, and

     

    (c)        by
the Company, upon at least 10 days’ prior written notice to Seaside, after the
fifth Subsequent Closing Date but prior to the sixth Subsequent Closing
Date

     

    provided, however, that no such
termination pursuant to this Section 5.1 will affect the right of any party to
sue for any breach by the other party (or parties).

     

    5.2         Fees and
Expenses.  Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement and
as set forth in this Section 5.2 below, each party shall pay the fees and
expenses of its own advisers, counsel, accountants and other experts, if any,
and all other expenses incurred by such party incident to the negotiation,
preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement.  The Company shall pay all stamp and other taxes and duties
levied in connection with the delivery of the Shares.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, at the Initial Closing the Company shall reimburse Seaside for
the fees and expenses of its counsel, White White & Van Etten PC, in an
amount equal to $25,000 and at each Subsequent Closing the Company shall
reimburse Seaside for the fees and expenses of its counsel, White White &
Van Etten PC, in an amount equal to $2,500.  Such legal fees may be
withheld by Seaside from the amount to be paid for the Shares purchased at the
Initial Closing and any Subsequent Closing.

     

    5.3         Entire
Agreement.  The Transaction Documents, together with the
exhibits and schedules thereto (including the Disclosure Schedules), contain the
entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof
and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with
respect to such matters, which the parties acknowledge have been merged into
such documents, exhibits and schedules.

     

    5.4         Notices.  Any
and all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to
be provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and
effective on the earliest of (a) the date of transmission, if such notice or
communication is delivered via electronic mail or facsimile at the facsimile
number set forth on the signature pages attached hereto prior to 5:30 p.m.
(Eastern time) on a Trading Day, (b) the next Trading Day after the date of

receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given.  The
address for such notices and communications shall be as set forth on the
signature pages attached hereto.

    5.5           Amendments;
Waivers.  No provision of this Agreement may be waived or
amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by
the Company and Seaside or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom
enforcement of any such waiver is sought.  No waiver of any default
with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall
be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent
default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor
shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise any right hereunder in
any manner impair the exercise of any such right.

     

    5.6           Headings.  The
headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this
Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions
hereof.  The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the
language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of
strict construction will be applied against any party.

     

    5.7           Successors and
Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted
assigns.  The Company may not assign this Agreement or any rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of
Seaside.  Seaside may assign this Agreement or any rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the
Company.

     

    5.8           No Third-Party
Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is intended for the benefit of
the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is
not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other
Person, except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.6.

     

    5.9           Governing
Law.  All questions concerning the construction, validity,
enforcement and interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall be governed by
and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of
New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law
thereof.  The parties hereby waive all rights to a trial by
jury.  If either party shall commence an action or proceeding to
enforce any provisions of the Transaction Documents, then the prevailing party
in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its
attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation,
preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.

     

    5.10         Survival.  The
representations and warranties herein shall survive the Closings and delivery of
the Shares.

     

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

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

     

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

     

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

     

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

     

    5.16         Construction.  The
parties agree that each of them and/or their respective counsel has reviewed and
had an opportunity to revise the Transaction Documents and, therefore, the
normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be
resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation
of the Transaction Documents or any amendments hereto.
