If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Person or insufficient to hold it harmless from Losses that are subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.1, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such Loss in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Person, on the other hand, as well as any relevant equitable considerations.  The Indemnifying Parties also agree that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability based on their comparative or contributory negligence or otherwise to the Indemnifying Party, any Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of any of the Indemnifying Party, or any other Person in connection with an Indemnified Claim.
Section 8.2    Treatment of Indemnification Payments.  All amounts paid by the Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Person under this Article VIII shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for all tax purposes.

(h)    by the Supermajority Commitment Parties, if any Event occurs or has occurred on or after the Commencement Date that, either alone or in combination with any other Event, constitutes a Material Adverse Effect.

23

or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

Section 10.12    Publicity; Public Disclosure of Agreement.  
(a)    At all times prior to the Closing Date or the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Company and the Commitment Parties shall consult with each other prior to issuing any press releases (and provide each other a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon such release) or otherwise making public announcements with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
(b)    Subject to Section 10.12(a), the Company may, in its discretion, disclose this Agreement (including the signature pages hereto) in a press release or public filing; provided, however, that the Company shall not disclose the Commitment Percentage of any Commitment Party to any Person, other than legal, accounting, financial and other advisors to the Company, or any of its respective subsidiaries or affiliates, unless such information is or becomes publicly available other than by the Company’s breach of this Section 10.12 or such information is required to be disclosed by law, rule, regulation, legal, judicial or administrative process, subpoena, or court order, or by a governmental, regulatory, or self-regulatory authority, or similar body, including the SEC and the Company’s filing obligations the Exchange Act.

24

Such Transaction Expenses shall constitute an allowed administrative expense of the Company under Section 503(b)(1) and 507(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code.  The payment of Transaction Expenses hereunder shall not limit the payment of fees and expenses as contemplated in the Restructuring Support Agreement or in any other agreement by and among the Parties hereto; provided, however, that the payment of any amounts pursuant to this Section shall not be duplicative with the payment of any amounts pursuant to the Restructuring Support Agreement or any other agreement by and among the parties hereto.

A.

amount of at least $500,000 and up to $2,000,000 (the “Shares”), for a purchase price of $0.10 per Share, and Common
Stock Purchase Warrants, each to purchase up to a certain number of shares of the common stock of the Issuer (the “Common
Stock”) equal to 100% of the number of Shares purchased hereunder, in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (individually,
the “Warrants” and collectively with the Shares, the “Securities”). The number of Shares each Purchaser

B.

the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) thereunder, and other applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and/or upon
such other exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act as may be available with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby.

 

C.
Subject to the terms and provisions of the Warrants and this Agreement, the Warrants shall be issued at the same time the Shares
are issued to the Purchasers hereunder and shall be exercisable at $0.15 per share (the “Exercise Price”), for such
number of shares equal to 100% of the number of Shares purchased hereunder (the “Exercisable Amount”)

 

    	 	 1	 

     

    

 

AGREEMENT

 

NOW
THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, which shall be considered an integral part of this Agreement, the covenants
and agreements set forth hereafter, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby
acknowledged, the Purchasers and the Issuer hereby agree as follows

 

1.
Purchase of the Shares and Warrants. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the
Warrants, the Purchasers shall purchase from the Issuer and the Issuer shall sell to the Purchasers the Securities.

 

2.
Purchaser’s Representations, Warranties and Covenants. In order to induce the Issuer to sell and issue the Securities
to the Purchaser under one or more exemptions from registration under the Securities Act, each Purchaser, severally and not jointly,
represents and warrants to the Issuer, and covenants with the Issuer, that, as of the date hereof and as of each Closing Date
(except as otherwise set forth herein):

 

(a)
(i) Such Purchaser has the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement, and each of the other agreements
entered into by the parties hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction
Documents”), and to purchase the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof.

 

(ii)
The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Purchaser and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated
thereby have been duly and validly authorized by the Purchaser’s organizational documents (if any) and no further consent
or authorization is required by the Purchaser.

 

(iii)
The Transaction Documents have been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Purchaser.

 

(iv)
The Transaction Documents, and each of them, constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser enforceable against
the Purchaser in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of
equity or applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting
generally, the enforcement of creditors’ rights and remedies.

 

(b)
The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Purchaser and the consummation by the Purchaser of
the transactions contemplated thereby will not conflict with or constitute a default under any agreement or instrument to which
the Purchaser is a party or by which the Purchaser is bound. 

 

(c)
The Purchaser understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” and have not been registered under the Securities
Act or any applicable state securities law and is acquiring the Securities as principal for its own account and not with a view
to or for distributing or reselling such Securities or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state
securities law, has no present intention of distributing any of such Securities in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable
state securities law and has no direct or indirect arrangement or understandings with any other persons to distribute or regarding
the distribution of such Securities in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law (this representation
and warranty not limiting the Purchaser’s right to sell the Securities in compliance with applicable federal and state securities
laws). The Purchaser is acquiring the Securities hereunder in the ordinary course of its business.

 

    	 	 2	 

     

    

 

(e)
The Purchaser acknowledges that the Securities have been offered to it in direct communication between itself and the Issuer and
not through any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding the Securities published in any newspaper, magazine
or similar media or broadcast over the television or radio or presented in any seminar or any other general solicitation or general
advertisement.

 

(f)
The Purchaser acknowledges that the Issuer has given it access to all information relating to the Issuer’s business that
it has requested. The Purchaser has reviewed all materials relating to the Issuer’s business, finance and operations which
it has requested and the Purchaser has reviewed all of such materials as the Purchaser, in the Purchaser’s sole and absolute
discretion shall have deemed necessary or desirable. The Purchaser has had an opportunity to discuss the business, management
and financial affairs of the Issuer with the Issuer’s management. Specifically but not by way of limitation, the Purchaser
acknowledges the Issuer’s publicly available filings made periodically with the SEC, which filings are available at www.sec.gov
and which filings the Purchaser acknowledges reviewing or having had the opportunity of reviewing.

 

(g)
The Purchaser acknowledges that it has, by reason of its business and financial experience, such knowledge, sophistication and
experience in financial and business matters and in making investment decisions of this type that it is capable of (i) evaluating
the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities and making an informed investment decision in connection therewith; (ii)
protecting its own interest; and (iii) bearing the economic risk of such investment for an indefinite period of time. The Purchaser
hereby agrees to indemnify the Issuer and to hold the Issuer and the officers, directors and employees thereof harmless against
all liability, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising by reason of or in connection with any misrepresentation
or any breach of warranties of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement, or arising as a result of the sale or distribution of
the Securities or the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, by the undersigned in violation of the Securities Act,
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or any other applicable law, either federal
or state. This subscription and the representations and warranties contained herein shall be binding upon the heirs, legal representatives,
successors and assigns of the Purchaser

 

(h)
The Purchaser is familiar with the definition of an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of
Regulation D of the Securities Act and represents and warrants to the Issuer that it is (and was at such time it was offered the
Securities) an accredited investor, on each Closing Date, and will be an accredited investor on each date which it exercises any
of the Warrants. Such Purchaser is not required to be registered as a broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange act. If the
Purchaser is not a resident of the United States, the Purchaser is not a “U.S. person[s]” as that term is defined
in Rule 902 of Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

(i)
Commencing on the date on which the Purchaser received a term sheet from the Issuer or any representative or agent of the Issuer
(written or oral) setting forth the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder, until the date on which the Purchaser
no longer owns any Shares and the Purchaser’s Warrants are no longer outstanding, the Purchaser has complied and will comply
with the provisions of Section 9 of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, with respect to transactions
involving the Common Stock. Commencing on the date on which the Purchaser received a term sheet from the Issuer or any representative
or agent of the Issuer (written or oral) setting forth the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder, until the
date on which the Purchaser no longer owns any Shares and the Purchaser’s Warrants are no longer outstanding, the Purchaser
has not and will not sell the Issuer’s Common Stock short or engage or engaged in any hedging transactions in the Issuer’s
Common Stock, either directly or indirectly, through its affiliates, principals, agents or advisors.

 

(j)
The Purchaser is aware that the Shares and the Warrants, and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants
may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of the Shares and
the Warrants, and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, the Issuer may require the transferor thereof
to provide to the Issuer an opinion of counsel, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
Issuer, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Securities under the Securities Act.
Further, the Purchaser understands and acknowledges that any certificates evidencing the Shares, the Warrants or the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants will bear a legend in substantially the following form:

 

THE
SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR QUALIFIED FOR
SALE UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS (COLLECTIVELY, “SECURITIES LAWS”) AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED
UNLESS REGISTERED OR QUALIFIED FOR SALE UNDER ALL APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OR UNLESS, IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY
TO THE ISSUER, IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER, ANY SUCH OFFER, SALE OR OTHER TRANSFER IS EXEMPT FROM THE REGISTRATION
OR QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH SECURITIES LAWS.

 

(k)
The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that the Shares, and any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants,
may only be disposed of pursuant to either (i) an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (ii) an exemption
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

 

    	 	 4	 

     

    

 

(l)
The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that the Issuer has neither filed a registration statement with the SEC or any state
authorities nor agreed to do so, nor contemplates doing so in the future for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
the other Transaction Documents, and in the absence of such a registration statement or exemption, the Purchaser may have to hold
the Shares, the Warrants and any shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, indefinitely and may be unable
to liquidate any of them in case of an emergency.

 

(m)
The Purchaser is not and will not be required to be registered as a “dealer” under the Exchange Act, either as a result
of its execution and performance of its obligations under this Agreement or otherwise.

 

(n)
The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that proceeds raised in connection with this Agreement will be used by Issuer in its
sole discretion.

 

(o)
The Purchaser understands that it is liable for its own tax liabilities and has obtained no tax advice from the Issuer in connection
with the purchase of the Securities.

 

(p)
The Purchaser will not pay or receive any finder’s fee or commission in respect of the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

 

(q)
Purchaser hereby agrees and acknowledges that it has been informed of the following: (i) there are factors relating to the subsequent
transfer of any of the Securities or shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants that could make the resale of such Securities
or shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants difficult; (ii) there is no guarantee that the Purchaser will realize any gain
from the purchase of the Securities; and (iii) the purchase of the Securities involves a high degree of risk and is subject to
many uncertainties (including, without limitation, the risks disclosed in the Issuer’s filings with the SEC, including without
limitation, under “Risk Factor” in the Issuer’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014). The Purchaser
acknowledges that it understands that these risks and uncertainties may adversely affect the Issuer’s business, operating
results and financial condition, and that the trading price for the Common Stock could decline substantially and Purchaser could
lose all or part of its investment.
