generally the enforcement of, creditor’s rights and remedies or by other
equitable principles of general application.

Company or any of its subsidiaries are bound or affected, except, in all cases
other than violations pursuant to clauses (i) and (iv) above, for such
conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, accelerations, cancellations and
violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material
Adverse Effect.  The business of the Company and its subsidiaries is
not being conducted in violation of any laws, ordinances or regulations of any
governmental entity, except for possible violations which singularly or in the
aggregate do not and will not have a Material Adverse Effect.  The
Company is not required under Federal, state or local law, rule or regulation to

registration with, any court or governmental agency in order for it to execute,
deliver or perform any of its obligations under the Transaction Documents, or
issue and sell the  shares of Common  Stock, the Warrants
and the Warrant Shares in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof (other
than (x) any consent, authorization or order that has been obtained as of the
date hereof, (y) any filing or registration that has been made as of the date
hereof or (z) any filings which may be required to be made by the Company with
the Commission or state securities administrators subsequent to the Closing;
provided, that,
for purposes of the representation made in this sentence, the Company is
assuming and relying upon the accuracy of the relevant representations and
agreements of the Purchaser herein.

other information which, according to applicable law, rule or regulation, was
required to have been disclosed publicly by the Company but which has not been
so disclosed, other than with respect to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.  None of the Commission Documents contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit 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 Commission Documents comply as to form
in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the
published rules and regulations of the Commission or other applicable rules and
regulations with respect thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles
(“GAAP”)
applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except (i) as may be

the case of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may not include
footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements), and fairly present in all
material respects the financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as

    (g)           Subsidiaries. Schedule 2.1(g)
hereto sets forth each subsidiary of the Company, showing the jurisdiction of
its incorporation or organization and showing the percentage of each person’s

mean any corporation or other entity of which at least a majority of the
securities or other ownership interest having ordinary voting power (absolutely
or contingently) for the election of directors or other persons performing
similar functions are at the time owned directly or indirectly by the Company
and/or any of its other subsidiaries. All of the outstanding shares of capital
stock of each subsidiary have been duly authorized and validly issued, and are
fully paid and nonassessable. Other than as contemplated by the Transaction
Documents, there are no outstanding preemptive, conversion or other rights,
options, warrants or agreements granted or issued by or binding upon any
subsidiary for the purchase or acquisition of any shares of capital stock of any
subsidiary or any other securities convertible into, exchangeable for or
evidencing the rights to subscribe for any shares of such capital stock. Other
than as contemplated by the Transaction Documents, neither the Company nor any
subsidiary is subject to any obligation (contingent or otherwise) to repurchase
or otherwise acquire or retire any shares of the capital stock of any subsidiary
or any convertible securities, rights, warrants or options of the type described
in the preceding sentence.

     

    (h)           No Material Adverse

or unliquidated, secured or unsecured, absolute, accrued, contingent or
otherwise) other than those incurred in the ordinary course of the Company’s or
its subsidiaries respective businesses and which, individually or in the
aggregate, do not or would not have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company or
its subsidiaries.

    (j)           No Undisclosed Events or
Circumstances.  To the Company’s knowledge, no event or
circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to the Company or its
subsidiaries or their respective businesses, properties, prospects, operations
or financial condition, which, under applicable law, rule or regulation,
requires public disclosure or announcement by the Company but which has not been
so publicly announced or disclosed.

     

    (k)           Indebtedness. The
Commission Documents disclose  all outstanding secured and unsecured
Indebtedness of the Company or any subsidiary, or for which the Company or any
subsidiary has commitments outstanding as of the most recent balance sheet date.
For the purposes of this Agreement, “Indebtedness” shall
mean (a) any liabilities for borrowed money or amounts owed in excess of $50,000
(other than trade accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of business),
(b) all guaranties, endorsements and other contingent obligations in respect of
Indebtedness of others, whether or not the same are or should be reflected in
the Company’s balance sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties by
endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar
transactions in the ordinary course of business; and (c) the present value of
any lease payments in excess of $25,000 due under leases required to be
capitalized in accordance with GAAP.   Except as set forth in
Schedule
2.1(k), neither the Company nor any subsidiary is in default with respect
to any Indebtedness.

     

    (l)           Title to Assets.
Except as disclosed in the Commission Documents, each of the Company and the
subsidiaries has good and marketable title to all of its real and personal
property reflected in its most recent balance sheet included in its Commission

    (m)           Actions Pending.
There is no action, suit, claim, investigation, arbitration, alternate dispute
resolution proceeding or any other proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of
the Company, threatened against the Company or any subsidiary which questions
the validity of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or to be taken
pursuant hereto or thereto. There is no action, suit, claim, investigation,
arbitration, alternate dispute resolution proceeding or any other proceeding

    (n)           Compliance with Law.
The business of the Company and the subsidiaries has been and is presently being

governmental laws, rules, regulations and ordinances. The Company and each of
its subsidiaries have all franchises, permits, licenses, consents and other
governmental or regulatory authorizations and approvals necessary for the
conduct of its business in all material respects as now being conducted by it
unless the failure to possess such franchises, permits, licenses, consents and
other governmental or regulatory authorizations and approvals, individually or
in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

    (o)           Taxes. The Company
and each of the subsidiaries has accurately prepared and filed all federal,
state and other tax returns required by law to be filed by it, has paid or made
provisions for the payment of all taxes shown to be due and all additional
assessments, and adequate provisions have been and are reflected in the
financial statements of the Company and the subsidiaries for all current taxes
and other charges to which the Company or any subsidiary is subject and which
are not currently due and payable. None of the federal income tax returns of the
Company or any subsidiary have been audited by the Internal Revenue Service. The
Company has no knowledge of any additional assessments, adjustments or
contingent tax liability (whether federal or state) of any nature whatsoever,
whether pending or threatened against the Company or any subsidiary for any
period, nor of any basis for any such assessment, adjustment or
contingency.

     

    (p)           Certain
Fees.  No brokers, finders or financial advisory fees or
commissions will be payable by the Company or any subsidiary or any Purchaser
with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents.

     

    (q)           Disclosure. Except as
set forth in Schedule
2.1(q), neither this Agreement nor the Schedules hereto nor any other
documents, certificates or instruments furnished to the Purchaser by or on
behalf of the Company or any subsidiary in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement contain any untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made
herein or therein, taken as a whole and in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made herein or therein, not false or misleading.

     

    (r)           Operation of
Business. The Company and each of the subsidiaries owns or possesses all
patents, trademarks, domain names (whether or not registered) and any patentable
improvements or copyrightable derivative works thereof, websites and
intellectual property rights relating thereto, service marks, trade names,
copyrights, licenses and authorizations, and all rights with respect to the
foregoing, which are necessary for the conduct of its business as now conducted
without any conflict with the rights of others, except where the failure to so
own or possess would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

     

    (s)           Environmental
Compliance.  Since
their  inception,  neither the Company, nor any of
its  subsidiaries  have
been,  in  violation of any applicable law relating to
the  environment or occupational  health and safety, where
such violation would have a material  adverse effect on the business
or financial condition of any of the Company and its
Subsidiaries.  Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has operated
all facilities and properties owned, leased or operated by it in material
compliance with the Environmental Laws. “Environmental Laws”
shall mean all applicable laws relating to the protection of the environment
including, without limitation, all requirements pertaining to reporting,
licensing, permitting, controlling, investigating or remediating emissions,
discharges, releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances, chemical
substances, pollutants, contaminants or toxic substances, materials or wastes,
whether solid, liquid or gaseous in nature, into the air, surface water,
groundwater or land, or relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution,
use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of hazardous
substances, chemical substances, pollutants, contaminants or toxic substances,
material or wastes, whether solid, liquid or gaseous in nature. The Company has
all necessary governmental approvals required under all Environmental Laws and
used in its business or in the business of any of its subsidiaries. The Company
and each of its subsidiaries are also in compliance with all other limitations,
restrictions, conditions, standards, requirements, schedules and timetables
required or imposed under all Environmental Laws. There are no past or present
events, conditions, circumstances, incidents, actions or omissions relating to
or in any way affecting the Company or its subsidiaries that violate or may
violate any Environmental Law after the Closing Date or that may give rise to
any environmental liability, or otherwise form the basis of any claim, action,
demand, suit, proceeding, hearing, study or investigation (i) under any
Environmental Law, or (ii) based on or related to the manufacture, processing,
distribution, use, treatment, storage (including without limitation underground
storage tanks), disposal, transport or handling, or the emission, discharge,
release or threatened release of any hazardous substance.

    (t)           Books and Record Internal
Accounting Controls.  The books and records of the Company and
its subsidiaries accurately reflect in all material respects the information
relating to the business of the Company and the subsidiaries, the location and
collection of their assets, and the nature of all transactions giving rise to
the obligations or accounts receivable of the Company or any
subsidiary.  Except as otherwise disclosed in the Commission Documents
and except as would require a qualification with respect to the Company’s
auditor’s opinion to be issued in connection with the Company’s 2008 audit, the
Company and each of its subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting
controls sufficient, in the judgment of the Company, to provide reasonable
assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s
general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary
to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to
maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in
accordance with management’s general or specific authorization and (iv) the
recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at
reasonable intervals and appropriate actions are taken with respect to any
differences.

     

    (u)           Material
Agreements.  The Company and each of its subsidiaries has in
all material respects performed all the obligations required to be performed by
them to date under all material agreements filed or required to be filed with
the Commission (“Material Agreement”)
and has received no notice of default and is not in default under any material
Agreement now in effect the result of which would cause a Material Adverse
Effect.

     

    (v)           Transactions with
Affiliates. Except as set forth in the Commission Documents or the
Transaction Documents there are no loans, leases, agreements, contracts, royalty
agreements, management contracts or arrangements or other continuing
transactions between (a) the Company or any subsidiary on the one hand, and (b)
on the other hand, any officer, employee, consultant or director of the Company,
or any of its subsidiaries, or any person owning any capital stock of the
Company or any subsidiary or any member of the immediate family of such officer,
employee, consultant, director or stockholder or any corporation or other entity
controlled by such officer, employee, consultant, director or stockholder, or a
member of the immediate family of such officer, employee, consultant, director
or stockholder.

    (w)           Securities Act of
1933. Assuming the accuracy of the representations of the Purchaser set

with all applicable federal and state securities laws in connection with the

hereunder.  Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf,
directly or indirectly, has or will sell, offer to sell or solicit offers to buy
any of the Securities, the shares of Common Stock or the Warrants or similar
securities to, or solicit offers with respect thereto from, or enter into any
preliminary conversations or negotiations relating thereto with, any person, or
has taken or will take any action so as to bring the issuance and sale of any of
the Securities, the shares of Common Stock and the Warrants in violation of the
registration provisions of the Securities Act and applicable state securities
laws, and neither the Company nor any of its affiliates, nor any person acting
on its or their behalf, has engaged in any form of general solicitation or
general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities
Act) in connection with the offer or sale of any of the Securities, the shares
of Common Stock or the Warrants.

     

    (x)           Governmental
Approvals. Except for the filing of any notice prior or subsequent to the
Closing Date that may be required under applicable state and/or Federal
securities laws (which if required, shall be filed on a timely basis), including
the filing of a Form D and a registration statement or statements pursuant to
the Registration Rights Agreement, no authorization, consent, approval, license,
exemption of, filing or registration with any court or governmental department,
commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, domestic or foreign, is or
will be necessary for, or in connection with, the execution or delivery of the
Securities, the Shares and the Warrants, or for the performance by the Company
of its obligations under the Transaction Documents.

     

    (y)           Employees.  Except

has any collective bargaining arrangements or agreements covering any of its
employees.  Except as disclosed in the Commission Documents, neither
the Company nor any subsidiary has any employment contract, agreement regarding

in the Commission Documents that is not so

Documents no officer, consultant or key employee of the Company or any
subsidiary whose termination, either individually or in the aggregate, would
have a Material Adverse Effect, has terminated or, to the knowledge of the
Company, has any present intention of terminating his or her employment or
engagement with the Company or any subsidiary.

     

    (z)           Absence of Certain
Developments. Since September 30, 2008, except as set forth in the

Company Act and Investment Company Act Status. The Company is not a
“holding company” or a “public utility company” as such terms are defined in the
Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended. The Company is not, and
as a result of and immediately upon the Closing will not be, an “investment

    (bb)           ERISA. No liability
to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation has been incurred with respect to
any Plan (as defined below) by the Company or any of its subsidiaries which is
or would be materially adverse to the Company and its subsidiaries. The
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and
the issuance and sale of the Securities, the shares of Common Stock and the
Warrants will not involve any transaction which is subject to the prohibitions
of Section 406 of ERISA or in connection with which a tax could be imposed
pursuant to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended,
provided, that, if any of the Purchaser, or any person or entity that owns a
beneficial interest in any of the Purchaser, is an “employee pension benefit
plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA) with respect to which the
Company is a “party in interest” (within the meaning of Section 3(14) of ERISA),
the requirements of Sections 407(d)(5) and 408(e) of ERISA, if applicable, are
met. As used in this Section 2.1(bb), the term “Plan” shall mean an
“employee pension benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3 of ERISA) which is or
has been established or maintained, or to which contributions are or have been
made, by the Company or any subsidiary or by any trade or business, whether or
not incorporated, which, together with the Company or any subsidiary, is under
common control, as described in Section 414(b) or (c) of the Code.

     

    (cc)           Dilutive Effect. The
Company understands and acknowledges that it has an obligation to issue Warrant
Shares upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with this Agreement and the
Warrants regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the
ownership interest of other stockholders of the Company.

     

    (dd)           No Integrated
Offering.  Neither the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor
any person acting on its or their behalf, has directly or indirectly made any
offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security
under circumstances that would cause the offering of the
Securities  pursuant to this Agreement to be integrated with prior
offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act which would prevent
the Company from selling the Shares pursuant to Rule 506 under the Securities
Act, or any applicable exchange-related stockholder approval provisions, nor
will the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries take any action or
steps that would cause the offering of the Securities to be integrated with
other offerings. The Company does not have any registration statement pending
before the Commission or currently under the Commission’s review.

     

    (ee)           Independent Nature of
Purchaser. The Company acknowledges that the obligations of each
Purchaser under the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the
obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any
way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under the
Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges that the decision of each
Purchaser to purchase securities pursuant to this Agreement has been made by
such Purchaser independently of any other purchase and independently of any
information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs,
operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition
(financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or of its Subsidiaries
which may have made or given by any other Purchaser or by any agent or employee
of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser or any of its agents or employees shall
have any liability to any Purchaser (or any other person) relating to or arising
from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. The Company
acknowledges that nothing contained herein, or in any Transaction Document, and
no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to
constitute the Purchaser as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or
any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchaser is in any
way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges
that each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its
rights, including without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement
or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any
other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such
purpose. The Company acknowledges that it has elected to provide all Purchaser
with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the convenience of the Company
and not because it was required or requested to do so by the
Purchaser.

    Section
2.2        Representations and
Warranties of the Purchaser.  Each Purchaser hereby makes the

and each of the other Transaction Documents to which such Purchaser is a party
by such Purchaser and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or
partnership action, and no further consent or authorization of such Purchaser or

Conflicts.  The execution, delivery and performance of this

instrument or obligation to which such Purchaser is a party or by which its
properties or assets are bound, or result in a violation of any law, rule, or
regulation, or any order, judgment or decree of any court or governmental agency
applicable to such Purchaser or its properties (except for such conflicts,
defaults and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a
material adverse effect on such Purchaser). Such Purchaser is not required to
obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or
registration with, any court or governmental agency in order for it to execute,
deliver or perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other

Common Stock or acquire the Warrants in accordance with the terms hereof,
provided, that for purposes of the representation made in this sentence, such
Purchaser is assuming and relying upon the accuracy of the relevant
representations and agreements of the Company herein.

    (d)           Acquisition for
Investment. Each Purchaser is acquiring the Securities, and the
underlying Common Stock  and the Warrants solely for its own account
for the purpose of investment and not with a view to or for sale in connection
with distribution. Each Purchaser does not have a present intention to sell the
Shares or the Warrants, nor a present arrangement (whether or not legally
binding) or intention to effect any distribution of the Shares or the Warrants
to or through any person or entity; provided, however, that by
making the representations herein and subject to Section 2.2(h) below, such
Purchaser does not agree to hold the Shares or the Warrants for any minimum or
other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Shares or the
Warrants at any time in accordance with Federal and state securities laws
applicable to such disposition. Each Purchaser acknowledges that it is able to
bear the financial risks associated with an investment in the Shares and the
Warrants and that it has been given full access to such records of the Company
and the subsidiaries and to the officers of the Company and the subsidiaries and
received such information as it has deemed necessary or appropriate to conduct
its due diligence investigation and has sufficient knowledge and experience in
investing in companies similar to the Company in terms of the Company’s stage of
development so as to be able to evaluate the risks and merits of its investment
in the Company.  Each Purchaser further acknowledges that such
Purchaser understands the risks of investing in companies domiciled and/or which
operate primarily in the People’s Republic of China and that the purchase of the
Shares and Warrants involves substantial risks.

     

    (e)           Status of Purchaser.
Each Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D
promulgated under the Securities Act. Such Purchaser is not required to be
registered as a broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act and such
Purchaser is not a broker-dealer, nor an affiliate of a
broker-dealer.

     

    (f)           Opportunities for Additional
Information.  Each Purchaser acknowledges that such Purchaser
has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from, or obtain
additional information from, the executive officers of the Company concerning
the financial and other affairs of the Company.

     

    (g)           No General
Solicitation. Each Purchaser acknowledges that the Securities were not
offered to such Purchaser by means of any form of general or public solicitation
or general advertising, or publicly disseminated advertisements or sales
literature, including (i) any advertisement, article, notice or other
communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media, or
broadcast over television or radio, or (ii) any seminar or meeting to which such
Purchaser was invited by any of the foregoing means of
communications.

    (h)           Rule 144. Such
Purchaser understands that the Shares must be held indefinitely unless such
Shares are registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from registration
is available. Such Purchaser acknowledges that such Purchaser is familiar with
Rule 144 of the rules and regulations of the Commission, as amended, promulgated
pursuant to the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), and that
such person has been advised that Rule 144 permits resales only under certain
circumstances. Such Purchaser understands that to the extent that Rule 144 is
not available, such Purchaser will be unable to sell any Shares without either
registration under the Securities Act or the existence of another exemption from
such registration requirement.

     

    (i)           General. Such
Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered and sold in reliance
on a transactional exemption from the registration requirement of Federal and
state securities laws and the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of
the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings
of such Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of
such exemptions and the suitability of such Purchaser to acquire the
Securities.

     

    (j)           Independent
Investment. Except as may be disclosed in any filings with the Commission
by the Purchaser under Section 13 and/or Section 16 of the Exchange Act, no
Purchaser has agreed to act with any other Purchaser for the purpose of
acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of the Shares purchased hereunder for
purposes of Section 13(d) under the Exchange Act, and each Purchaser is acting
independently with respect to its investment in the Shares.

     

    (k)           Brokers.  Each
Purchaser has no knowledge of any brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions that
are or will be payable by the Company or any Subsidiary to any broker, financial
advisor or consultant, finder, placement agent, investment banker, bank or other
person or entity with respect to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement

certificate representing the Common Shares and the Warrants, and, if
appropriate, securities issued upon conversion thereof, shall be stamped or

laws):

     

    THESE
SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE (THE “SECURITIES”) HAVE NOT BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”)
OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE
DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE
STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR THE COMPANY SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL
THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE
PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED.

    THESE
SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO A LOCKUP AGREEMENT AND  MAY NOT BE SOLD,
TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
TERMS THEREOF.

     

    The
Company agrees to reissue certificates representing any of the Shares and the
Warrant Shares, without the legends set forth above if at such time, prior to
making any transfer of any such securities, (i) the Lock-Up Agreement shall have
terminated and shall be of no further force or effect and (ii) the holder
thereof shall have given written notice to the Company describing the manner and
terms of such transfer and removal as the Company may reasonably
request.  Such proposed transfer and removal will not be effected
until: (a) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that the registration of the Common
Shares or the Warrant Shares under the Securities Act is not required in
connection with such proposed transfer, (ii) a registration statement under the
Securities Act covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Company
with the Commission and has become effective under the Securities Act, (iii) the
Company has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company that
such registration and qualification under the Securities Act and state
securities laws are not required, or (iv) the holder provides the Company with
reasonable assurances that such security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under
the Securities Act; and (b) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that registration
or qualification under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state is not
required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii) compliance with
applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws has been effected or a valid
exemption exists with respect thereto. The Company will respond to any such
notice from a holder within five (5) business days. In the case of any proposed
transfer under this Section 5.1, the Company will use reasonable efforts to
comply with any such applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws, but shall
in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do business in any state where it is
not then qualified, (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to
the general service of process in any state where it is not then subject, or (z)
to comply with state securities or “blue sky” laws of any state for which
registration by coordination is unavailable to the Company. The restrictions on
transfer contained in this Section 5.1 shall be in addition to, and not by way
of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer contained in any other
section of this Agreement. Whenever a certificate representing the Warrant
Shares is required to be issued to a Purchaser without a legend, in lieu of
delivering physical certificates representing the Warrant Shares (provided that
a registration statement under the Securities Act providing for the resale of
the Warrant Shares and Conversion Shares is then in effect), the Company may
cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Warrant Shares to a
Purchaser by crediting the account of such Purchaser or such Purchaser’s Prime
Broker with the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) through its
Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system (to the
extent not inconsistent with any provisions of this Agreement).

    Indemnification

     

    Section
6.1          General
Indemnity.  The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
the Purchaser (and their respective directors, officers, managers, partners,
members, shareholders, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns) from and
against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and
expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and
disbursements) incurred by the Purchaser as a result of any inaccuracy in or
breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by the Company
herein.  Each Purchaser severally but not jointly agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless the Company and its directors, officers, affiliates, agents,
successors and assigns from and against any and all losses, liabilities,
deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Company
as a result of any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties or
covenants made by such Purchaser herein.  The maximum aggregate
liability of each Purchaser pursuant to its indemnification obligations under
this Article VI shall not exceed the portion of the Purchase Price paid by such
Purchaser hereunder.

     

    Section
6.2          Indemnification
Procedure.  Any party entitled to indemnification under this
Article VI (an “indemnified party”) will give written notice to the indemnifying
party of any matters giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided, that the
failure of any party entitled to indemnification hereunder to give notice as
provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations
under this Article VI except to the extent that the indemnifying party is
actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any action,
proceeding or claim is brought against an indemnified party in respect of which
indemnification is sought hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to
participate in and, unless in the reasonable judgment of the indemnified party a
conflict of interest between it and the indemnifying party may exist with
respect of such action, proceeding or claim, to assume the defense thereof with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. In the event that the
indemnifying party advises an indemnified party that it will contest such a
claim for indemnification hereunder, or fails, within thirty (30) days of
receipt of any indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such person of its
election to defend, settle or compromise, at its sole cost and expense, any
action, proceeding or claim (or discontinues its defense at any time after it
commences such defense), then the indemnified party may, at its option, defend,
settle or otherwise compromise or pay such action or claim. In any event, unless
and until the indemnifying party elects in writing to assume and does so assume
the defense of any such claim, proceeding or action, the indemnified party’s
costs and expenses arising out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any
such action, claim or proceeding shall be losses subject to indemnification
hereunder. The indemnified party shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying
party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim
by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all
information reasonably available to the indemnified party which relates to such
action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the indemnified party fully
apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement
negotiations with respect thereto. If the indemnifying party elects to defend
any such action or claim, then the indemnified party shall be entitled to
participate in such defense with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and
expense. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any
action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent.
Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI to the contrary, the indemnifying
party shall not, without the indemnified party’s prior written consent, settle
or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof
which imposes any future obligation on the indemnified party or which does not
include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the
plaintiff to the indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of
such claim. The indemnification required by this Article VI shall be made by
periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of investigation or
defense, as and when bills are received or expense, loss, damage or liability is
incurred, so long as the indemnified party irrevocably agrees to refund such
moneys if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that
such party was not entitled to indemnification. The indemnity agreements
contained herein shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or similar

    Section
7.1          Fees and
Expenses.  Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents, each party shall pay the fees and expenses of
its advisors, counsel, accountants and other experts, if any, and all other
expenses, incurred by such party incident to the negotiation, preparation,
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement. The Company shall pay all
reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Purchaser in connection with the
enforcement of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents,
including, without limitation, all reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses but
only if the Purchaser is  successful in any litigation or arbitration
relating to such enforcement.

     

    Section
7.2          Specific Enforcement,
Consent to Jurisdiction.

     

    (a)           The
Company and the Purchaser acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would
occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement or the other
Transaction Documents were not performed in accordance with their specific terms
or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be
entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the
provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and to enforce
specifically the terms and provisions hereof or thereof, this being in addition
to any other remedy to which any of them may be entitled by law or
equity.

     

    (b)           Each
of the Company and the Purchaser (i) hereby irrevocably submits to the
jurisdiction of the United States District Court sitting in the Southern
District of New York and the courts of the State of New York located in New York
county for the purposes of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby and (ii) hereby waives, and agrees
not to assert in any such suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not
personally subject to the jurisdiction of such court, that the suit, action or
proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of the suit,
action or proceeding is improper. Each of the Company and the Purchaser consents
to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy
thereof to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this
Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient
service of process and notice thereof. Nothing in this Section 7.2 shall affect
or limit any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by
law.

    Section
7.3          Entire Agreement;
Amendment.  This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents
contains the entire understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to
the matters covered hereby and, except as specifically set forth herein or in
the Transaction Documents, neither the Company nor any of the Purchaser makes
any representations, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such
matters and they supersede all prior understandings and agreements with respect
to said subject matter, all of which are merged herein. No provision of this
Agreement nor any of the Transaction Documents may be waived or amended other
than by a written instrument signed by the Company and the Purchaser, and no
provision hereof may be waived other than by a written instrument signed by the
party against whom enforcement of any such amendment or waiver is
sought.  No such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it
applies to less than all of the holders of the Purchaser. No consideration shall
be offered or paid to any person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification
of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same
consideration is also offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents
or holders of Common Shares, as the case may be.

    Section
7.5          Waivers.  No
waiver by either party 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 other provisions, condition or requirement hereof,
nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in
any manner impair the exercise of any such right accruing to it
thereafter.

     

    Section
7.6          Headings.  The
article, section and subsection headings in this Agreement are for convenience
only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose and

    Section
7.9          Governing
Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving

not be interpreted or construed with any presumption against the party causing
this Agreement to be drafted.

     

    Section
7.10        Survival.  The

the execution and delivery hereof and the Closings hereunder for a period of two
years following the Closing Date.

     

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

     

    Section
7.12        Publicity.  The
Company agrees that it will not disclose, and will not include in any public
announcement, the name of the Purchaser without the consent of the Purchaser
unless and until such disclosure is required by law or applicable regulation,
and then only to the extent of such requirement.

     

    Section
7.13        Severability.  The
provisions of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents are severable and, in
the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any one
or more of the provisions or part of the provisions contained in this Agreement
or the Transaction Documents shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or part of a provision of
this Agreement or the Transaction Documents and such provision shall be reformed
and construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision, or part
of such provision, had never been contained herein, so that such provisions
would be valid, legal and enforceable to the maximum extent
possible.
