is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D.

          (c) Reliance on Exemptions. Such Buyer understands that the Securities are being
offered and sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the registration requirements of
United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying in part upon the
truth and accuracy of, and such Buyer’s compliance with, the representations, warranties,
agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Buyer set forth herein in order to determine
the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Buyer to acquire the Securities.

          (d) Information. Such Buyer and its advisors, if any, have been furnished with all
materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials relating

the Securities nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the
Securities.

          (f) Transfer or Resale. Such Buyer understands that except as provided in Section

Securities made in reliance on Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of Rule 144
and further, if Rule 144 is not applicable, any resale of the Securities under circumstances in
which the seller (or the Person (as defined in Section 3(s)) through whom the sale is made) may be
deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the 1933 Act) may require compliance with
some other exemption under the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder; and
(iii) neither the Company nor any other Person is under any obligation to register the Securities
under the 1933 Act or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any
exemption thereunder. The Securities may be pledged in connection with a bona fide margin account
or other loan or financing arrangement secured by the Securities and such pledge of Securities
shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale

or assignment of the Securities hereunder, and no Buyer effecting a pledge of Securities shall
be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to the
Company pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (as defined in Section 3(b)),

Section 4(u) hereof, the stock certificates representing the Conversion Shares and the Warrant
Shares, except as set forth below, shall bear any legend as required by the “blue sky” laws of any
state and a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may

          (h) Validity; Enforcement. This Agreement and the Security Agreement to which such

Buyer and shall constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Buyer enforceable
against such Buyer in accordance with their respective terms, except as such

- 6 -

insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and other similar laws relating to, or
affecting generally, the enforcement of applicable creditors’ rights and remedies.

          (i) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by such Buyer of this
Agreement and the Security Agreement to which such Buyer is a party and the consummation by such
Buyer of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not (i) result in a violation of the
organizational documents of such Buyer or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event
which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any
rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or
instrument to which such Buyer is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule,
regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws) applicable to
such Buyer, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such conflicts, defaults,

     3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY.

          The Company represents and warrants to each of the Buyers that:

          (a) Organization and Qualification. Each of the Company and its “Subsidiaries” (which
for purposes of this Agreement means any entity in which the Company, directly or indirectly, owns
any of the capital stock or holds an equity or similar interest) are entities duly organized and
validly existing in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which they are formed, and
have the requisite power and authorization to own their properties and to carry on their business
as now being conducted. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is duly qualified as a foreign
entity to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which its ownership of
property or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except
to the extent that the failure to be so qualified or be in good standing would not have a Material
Adverse Effect. As used in this Agreement, “Material Adverse Effect” means any material adverse
effect on the business, properties, assets, operations, results of operations, condition (financial
or otherwise) or prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or on the
transactions contemplated hereby and the other Transaction Documents or by the agreements and
instruments to be entered into in connection herewith or therewith, or on the authority or ability
of the Company to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents (as defined below). The
Company has no Subsidiaries except as set forth on Schedule 3(a).

          (b) Authorization; Enforcement; Validity. The Company has the requisite power and
authority to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Notes, the Security
Agreement, the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions (as defined in Section 5(b)), the Warrants,
and each of the other agreements entered into by the parties hereto in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction

- 7 -

 

Documents”) and to issue the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. The
execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the
Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the
issuance of the Notes, the Common Shares and the Warrants, the reservation for issuance and the
issuance of the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes, the reservation for
issuance and issuance of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, the reservation for
issuance and issuance of Interest Shares, if any, and the granting of a security interest in the
Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) have been duly authorized by the Company’s Board
of Directors and (other than (i) the filing of appropriate UCC financing statements with the
appropriate states and other authorities pursuant to the Security Agreement, and (ii) the filing
with the SEC of one or more registration statements in accordance with the requirements of Section
4(u) hereof) no further filing, consent, or authorization is required by the Company, its Board of
Directors or its stockholders. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents of even date
herewith have been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and constitute the legal, valid and
binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company 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 applicable creditors’ rights and remedies.

          (c) Issuance of Securities. The issuance of the Notes, the Common Shares and the
Warrants are duly authorized and are free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the
issue thereof. As of the applicable Closing, a number of shares of Common Stock shall have been
duly authorized and reserved for issuance which equals at least (i) 100% of the number of Common
Shares issued hereunder and (ii) 130% of the sum of the maximum number of shares Common Stock
issuable (A) as Interest Shares pursuant to the terms of the Notes, (B) upon conversion of the
Notes issued at such Closing and issued at all prior Closings and (C) upon exercise of the
Warrants. Upon conversion or payment in accordance with the Notes or exercise in accordance with
the Warrants, as the case may be, the Conversion Shares, the Interest Shares and the Warrant
Shares, respectively, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all
preemptive or similar rights, taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof, with the
holders being entitled to all rights accorded to a holder of Common Stock. The offer and issuance
by the Company of the Securities is exempt from registration under the 1933 Act.

          (d) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction
Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Notes, the Common Shares and
the Warrants, the granting of a security interest in the Collateral and reservation for issuance
and issuance of the Conversion Shares, the Interest Shares and the Warrant Shares) will not (i)
result in a violation of the Articles of Incorporation (as defined in Section 3(r)) of the Company
or any of its Subsidiaries, any capital stock of the Company or Bylaws (as defined in Section 3(r))
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an
event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others
any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or
instrument to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, or (iii) result in a
violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or

- 8 -

 

decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations and the rules and
regulations of the OTC Bulletin Board (the “Principal Market”)) applicable to the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is
bound or affected.

          (e) Consents. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is required to obtain
any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court,
governmental agency or any regulatory or self-regulatory agency or any other Person in order for it
to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under or contemplated by the Transaction
Documents, in each case in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof. All consents,
authorizations, orders, filings and registrations which the Company is required to obtain pursuant
to the preceding sentence have been obtained or effected on or prior to the Closing Date, and the
Company and its Subsidiaries are unaware of any facts or circumstances which might prevent the
Company from obtaining or effecting any of the registration, application or filings pursuant to the
preceding sentence. The Company is not in violation of the listing requirements of the Principal
Market and has no knowledge of any facts which would reasonably lead to delisting or suspension of
the Common Stock in the foreseeable future.

          (f) Acknowledgment Regarding Buyer’s Purchase of Securities. The Company acknowledges
and agrees that each Buyer is acting solely in the capacity of arm’s length purchaser with respect
to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and that no Buyer
is (i) an officer or director of the Company, (ii) an “affiliate” of the Company (as defined in
Rule 144) or (iii) to the knowledge of the Company, a “beneficial owner” of more than 10% of the
shares of Common Stock (as defined for purposes of Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”)). The Company further acknowledges that no Buyer is acting as a
financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar capacity) with respect to the
Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and any advice given by
a Buyer or any of its representatives or agents in connection with the Transaction Documents and
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby is merely incidental to such Buyer’s purchase of
the Securities. The Company further represents to each Buyer that the Company’s decision to enter
into the Transaction Documents has been based solely on the independent evaluation by the Company
and its representatives.

          (g) No General Solicitation; Placement Agent’s Fees. 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) in connection with the
offer or sale of the Securities. The Company shall be responsible for the payment of any placement
agent’s fees, financial advisory fees, or brokers’ commissions (other than for persons engaged by
any Buyer or its investment advisor) relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated
hereby. The Company shall pay, and hold each Buyer harmless against, any liability, loss or
expense (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees and out-of-pocket expenses) arising in
connection with any such claim. The Company acknowledges that it has engaged Midtown Partners &
Co. LLC as placement agent (the “Placement Agent”) in connection with the sale of the Securities.
Other than the Placement Agent, the Company has not engaged any placement agent or other agent in
connection with the sale of the Securities.

- 9 -

 

          (h) No Integrated Offering. None of the Company, its Subsidiaries, any of their
affiliates, and any Person acting on 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
require registration of any of the Securities under the 1933 Act or cause this offering of the
Securities to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the 1933 Act or any
applicable stockholder approval provisions, including, without limitation, under the rules and
regulations of any exchange or automated quotation system on which any of the securities of the
Company are listed or designated. None of the Company, its Subsidiaries, their affiliates and any
Person acting on their behalf will take any action or steps referred to in the preceding sentence
that would require registration of any of the Securities under the 1933 Act or cause the offering
of the Securities to be integrated with other offerings.

          (i) Dilutive Effect. The Company understands and acknowledges that the number of
Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes and the Warrant Shares issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants will increase in certain circumstances. The Company further acknowledges
that its obligation to issue Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with this
Agreement and the Notes and its obligation to issue the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the
Warrants in accordance with this Agreement and the Warrants, in each case, is absolute and
unconditional regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership
interests of other stockholders of the Company.

          (j) Application of Takeover Protections; Rights Agreement. 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 Articles of Incorporation or the laws
of the jurisdiction of its formation which is or could become applicable to any Buyer as a result
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Company’s
issuance of the Securities and any Buyer’s ownership of the Securities. The Company has not
adopted a stockholder rights plan or similar arrangement relating to accumulations of beneficial
ownership of Common Stock or a change in control of the Company.

          (k) SEC Documents; Financial Statements. Except as disclosed in Schedule
3(k), during the two (2) years prior to the date hereof, the Company has filed all reports,
schedules, forms, statements and other documents required to be filed by it with the SEC pursuant
to the reporting requirements of the 1934 Act (all of the foregoing filed prior to the date hereof
and all exhibits included therein and financial statements, notes and schedules thereto and
documents incorporated by reference therein being hereinafter referred to as the “SEC Documents”).
The Company has delivered to the Buyers or their respective representatives true, correct and
complete copies of the SEC Documents not available on the EDGAR system. As of their respective
dates, the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the 1934 Act
and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to the SEC Documents,
and none of the SEC Documents, at the time they were filed with the SEC, 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 the light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading. As of their respective dates, the financial statements of the
Company included in the SEC Documents complied as to form in all material respects with applicable
accounting requirements and the published rules and

footnotes or may be condensed or summary statements) and fairly present in all material respects
the financial position of the Company as of the dates thereof and the results of its operations and
cash flows for the periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal
year-end audit adjustments). No other information provided by or on behalf of the Company to the
Buyers which is not included in the SEC Documents, including, without limitation, information
referred to in Section 2(d) of this Agreement, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or
omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of

          (m) No Undisclosed Events, Liabilities, Developments or Circumstances. No event,
liability, development or circumstance has occurred or exists, or is contemplated to occur with
respect to the Company, its Subsidiaries or their respective business, properties, prospects,
operations or financial condition, that would be required to be disclosed by the Company under
applicable securities laws on a registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC relating to
an issuance and sale by the Company of its Common Stock and which has not been publicly announced.

revocation or modification of any such certificate, authorization or permit.

          (o) Foreign Corrupt Practices. Neither the Company, nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor

neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) has any outstanding Indebtedness (as defined

of which,

- 13 -

 

in the judgment of the Company’s officers, has or is expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. Schedule 3(s) provides a detailed description of the material terms of any such
outstanding Indebtedness. For purposes of this Agreement: (x) “Indebtedness” of any Person means,
without duplication (A) all indebtedness for borrowed money, (B) all obligations issued, undertaken
or assumed as the deferred purchase price of property or services (other than trade payables
entered into in the ordinary course of business), (C) all reimbursement or payment obligations with
respect to letters of credit, surety bonds and other similar instruments, (D) all obligations
evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures or similar instruments, including obligations so evidenced
incurred in connection with the acquisition of property, assets or businesses, (E) all indebtedness
created or arising under any conditional sale or other title retention agreement, or incurred as
financing, in either case with respect to any property or assets acquired with the proceeds of such
indebtedness (even though the rights and remedies of the seller or bank under such agreement in the
event of default are limited to repossession or sale of such property), (F) all monetary
obligations under any leasing or similar arrangement which, in connection with generally accepted
accounting principles, consistently applied for the periods covered thereby, is classified as a
capital lease, (G) all indebtedness referred to in clauses (A) through (F) above secured by (or for
which the holder of such Indebtedness has an existing right, contingent or otherwise, to be secured
by) any mortgage, lien, pledge, charge, security interest or other encumbrance upon or in any
property or assets (including accounts and contract rights) owned by any Person, even though the
Person which owns such assets or property has not assumed or become liable for the payment of such
indebtedness, and (H) all Contingent Obligations in respect of indebtedness or obligations of
others of the kinds referred to in clauses (A) through (G) above; (y) “Contingent Obligation”
means, as to any Person, any direct or indirect liability, contingent or otherwise, of that Person
with respect to any indebtedness, lease, dividend or other obligation of another Person if the
primary purpose or intent of the Person incurring such liability, or the primary effect thereof, is
to provide assurance to the obligee of such liability that such liability will be paid or
discharged, or that any agreements relating thereto will be complied with, or that the holders of
such liability will be protected (in whole or in part) against loss with respect thereto; and (z)
"Person” means an individual, a limited liability company, a partnership, a joint venture, a
corporation, a trust, an unincorporated organization and a government or any department or agency
thereof.

          (t) Absence of Litigation. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or
investigation before or by the Principal Market, any court, public board, government agency,
self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened
against or affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the Common Stock or any of the
Company’s Subsidiaries or any of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their
capacities as such, except as set forth in Schedule 3(t).

          (u) Insurance. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of
recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as management
of the Company believes to be prudent and customary in the businesses in which the Company and its
Subsidiaries are engaged. Neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has been refused any
insurance coverage sought or applied for and neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has any
reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when
such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers

- 14 -

 

as may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse
Effect.

          (v) Employee Relations. (i) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a
party to any collective bargaining agreement or employs any member of a union. The Company and its
Subsidiaries believe that their relations with their employees are good. No executive officer of
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as defined in Rule 501(f) of the 1933 Act) has notified the
Company or any such Subsidiary that such officer intends to leave the Company or otherwise
terminate such officer’s employment with the Company or any such Subsidiary. No executive officer
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, to the knowledge of the Company, is, or is now expected
to be, in violation of any material term of any employment contract, confidentiality, disclosure or
proprietary information agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other contract or agreement or
any restrictive covenant, and the continued employment of each such executive officer does not
subject the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to any liability with respect to any of the
foregoing matters.

               (ii) The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all federal, state, local and
foreign laws and regulations respecting labor, employment and employment practices and benefits,
terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours, except where failure to be in compliance
would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.

          (w) Title. The Company and its Subsidiaries have good and marketable title in fee
simple to all real property and good and marketable title to all personal property owned by them
which is material to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear
of all liens, encumbrances and defects except such as do not materially affect the value of such
property and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be made of such property by the
Company and any of its Subsidiaries. Any real property and facilities held under lease by the
Company and any of its Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and enforceable leases
with such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere with the use made and proposed to be
made of such property and buildings by the Company and its Subsidiaries.

          (x) Intellectual Property Rights. The Company and its Subsidiaries own or possess
adequate rights or licenses to use all trademarks, trade names, service marks, service mark
registrations, service names, patents, patent rights, copyrights, inventions, licenses, approvals,
governmental authorizations, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights (“Intellectual
Property Rights”) necessary to conduct their respective businesses as now conducted. Except as set
forth in Schedule 3(x), none of the Company’s Intellectual Property Rights have expired or
terminated, or are expected to expire or terminate, within three years from the date of this
Agreement. The Company does not have any knowledge of any infringement by the Company or its
Subsidiaries of Intellectual Property Rights of others. There is no claim, action or proceeding
being made or brought, or to the knowledge of the Company, being threatened, against the Company or
its Subsidiaries regarding its Intellectual Property Rights. The Company is unaware of any facts
or circumstances which might give rise to any of the foregoing infringements or claims, actions or
proceedings. The Company and its Subsidiaries have taken reasonable security measures to protect
the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of their intellectual properties.

- 15 -

 

          (y) Environmental Laws. The Company and its Subsidiaries (i) are in compliance with
any and all Environmental Laws (as hereinafter defined), (ii) have received all permits, licenses
or other approvals required of them under applicable Environmental Laws to conduct their respective
businesses and (iii) are in compliance with all terms and conditions of any such permit, license or
approval where, in each of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the failure to so comply
could be reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
The term “Environmental Laws” means all federal, state, local or foreign laws relating to pollution
or protection of human health or the environment (including, without limitation, ambient air,
surface water, groundwater, land surface or subsurface strata), including, without limitation, laws
relating to emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases of chemicals, pollutants,
contaminants, or toxic or hazardous substances or wastes (collectively, “Hazardous Materials”) into
the environment, or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use,
treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of Hazardous Materials, as well as all
authorizations, codes, decrees, demands or demand letters, injunctions, judgments, licenses,
notices or notice letters, orders, permits, plans or regulations issued, entered, promulgated or
approved thereunder.

          (z) Subsidiary Rights. Except as set forth in Schedule 3(z), the Company or
one of its Subsidiaries has the unrestricted right to vote, and (subject to limitations imposed by
applicable law) to receive dividends and distributions on, all capital securities of its
Subsidiaries as owned by the Company or such Subsidiary.

          (aa) Investment Company Status. The Company is not, and upon consummation of the sale
of the Securities will not be, an “investment company,” a company controlled by an “investment
company” or an “affiliated person” of, or “promoter” or “principal underwriter” for, an “investment
company” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

          (bb) Tax Status. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries (i) has made or filed all
foreign, federal and state income and all other tax returns, reports and declarations required by
any jurisdiction to which it is subject, (ii) has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments
and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns, reports and
declarations, except those being contested in good faith and (iii) has set aside on its books
provision reasonably adequate for the payment of all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to
which such returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no unpaid taxes in any material
amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the
Company know of no basis for any such claim.

          (cc) Internal Accounting and Disclosure Controls. The Company and each of its
Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient 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 generally accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset and
liability accountability, (iii) access to assets or incurrence of liabilities is permitted only in
accordance with management’s general or specific authorization and (iv) the recorded accountability
for assets and liabilities is compared with the existing assets and liabilities at reasonable
intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any difference. The

- 16 -

 

Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-14
under the 1934 Act) that are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the
Company in the reports that it files or submits under the 1934 Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC,
including, without limitation, controls and procedures designed in to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the 1934 Act
is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive
officer or officers and its principal financial officer or officers, as appropriate, to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

          (dd) Off Balance Sheet Arrangements. There is no transaction, arrangement, or other
relationship between the Company and an unconsolidated or other off balance sheet entity that is
required to be disclosed by the Company in its Exchange Act filings and is not so disclosed or that
otherwise would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (ee) Ranking of Notes. Except as set forth on Schedule (ee), no Indebtedness
of the Company is senior to or ranks pari passu with the Notes in right of payment, whether with
respect of payment of redemptions, interest, damages or upon liquidation or dissolution or
otherwise. The New Notes and the Amended and Restated Notes shall rank pari passu with each other.

          (ff) Form S-1 Eligibility. The Company is eligible to register the Conversion Shares
and the Warrant Shares for resale by the Buyers using Form S-1 promulgated under the 1933 Act.

          (gg) Transfer Taxes. On the Closing Date, all stock transfer or other taxes (other
than income or similar taxes) which are required to be paid in connection with the sale and
transfer of the Securities to be sold to each Buyer hereunder will be, or will have been, fully
paid or provided for by the Company, and all laws imposing such taxes will be or will have been
complied with.

          (hh) Manipulation of Price. The Company has not, and to its knowledge no one acting
on its behalf has, (i) taken, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or to result in
the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the
sale or resale of any of the Securities, (ii) other than the Placement Agent, sold, bid for,
purchased, or paid any compensation for soliciting purchases of, any of the Securities, or (iii)
other than the Placement Agent, paid or agreed to pay to any person any compensation for soliciting
another to purchase any other securities of the Company.

          (ii) Acknowledgement Regarding Buyers’ Trading Activity. It is understood and
acknowledged by the Company that, except as provided in Section 4(s), (i) none of the Buyers have
been asked to agree, nor has any Buyer agreed, to desist from purchasing or selling, long and/or
short, securities of the Company, or “derivative” securities based on securities issued by the
Company or to hold the Securities for any specified term; (ii) any Buyer, and counter parties in
“derivative” transactions to which any such Buyer is a party, directly or indirectly, presently may
have a “short” position in the Common Stock, and (iii) each Buyer shall not be deemed to have any
affiliation with or control over any arm’s length counter-party in any

- 17 -

 

“derivative” transaction. The Company further understands and acknowledges that (a) one or
more Buyers may engage in hedging and/or trading activities at various times during the period that
the Securities are outstanding, including, without limitation, during the periods that the value of
the Conversion Shares, the Warrant Shares and any Interest Shares deliverable with respect to
Securities are being determined and (b) such hedging and/or trading activities, if any, can reduce
the value of the existing stockholders’ equity interest in the Company both at and after the time
the hedging and/or trading activities are being conducted. The Company acknowledges that such
aforementioned hedging and/or trading activities do not constitute a breach of this Agreement, the
Notes, the Warrants or any of the documents executed in connection herewith.

          (jj) U.S. Real Property Holding Corporation. The Company is not, nor has ever been, a
U.S. real property holding corporation within the meaning of Section 897 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, and the Company shall so certify upon Buyer’s request.

          (kk) Bank Holding Company Act Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or
affiliates is subject to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHCA”) and to
regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”).
Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates owns or controls, directly or
indirectly, five percent or more of the outstanding shares of any class of voting securities or
twenty-five percent or more of the total equity of a bank or any entity that is subject to the BHCA
and to regulation by the Federal Reserve. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or
affiliates exercises a controlling influence over the management or policies of a bank or any
entity that is subject to the BHCA and to regulation by the Federal Reserve.

          (ll) Disclosure. The Company confirms that neither it nor any other Person acting on
its behalf has provided any of the Buyers or their agents or counsel with any information that
constitutes or could reasonably be expected to constitute material, nonpublic information other
than as set forth in the following sentence. The Company understands and confirms that each of the
Buyers will rely on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the
Company. All disclosure provided to the Buyers regarding the Company, its business and the
transactions contemplated hereby, including the Schedules to this Agreement, furnished by or on
behalf of the Company is true and correct and does not 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
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each press release
issued by the Company during the twelve (12) months preceding the date of this Agreement did not at
the time of release 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 the
light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading. No event or circumstance has
occurred or information exists with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or its or
their business, properties, prospects, operations or financial conditions, 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.

Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for or to qualify
the Securities for sale to the Buyers at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable

liability, loss or expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and
out-of-pocket expenses) arising in connection with any claim relating to any such payment. Except
as otherwise set forth in the Transaction Documents, each party to this Agreement shall bear its
own expenses in connection with the sale of the Securities to the Buyers.

          (h) Pledge of Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Securities may
be pledged by an Investor in connection with a bona fide margin agreement or other loan or
financing arrangement that is secured by the Securities. The pledge of Securities shall not be

otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document, including, without limitation, Section 2(f) hereof; provided that an Investor and its

its and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, not to, provide any
Buyer with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
from and after the filing of the 8-K Filing with the SEC without the express written consent of

regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, it shall provide the Company with written notice
thereof. The Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days of receipt of such notice, make public
disclosure of such material, nonpublic information. In the event of a breach of the foregoing
covenant by the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers,
directors, employees and agents, in addition to any other remedy provided herein or in the
Transaction Documents, a Buyer shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the form of a
press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of such material, nonpublic information without
the prior approval by the Company, its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers,
directors, employees or agents. No Buyer shall have any liability to the Company, its

therewith and (ii) as is required by applicable law and regulations (provided that in the case of
clause (i) each Buyer shall be consulted by the Company in connection with any such press release
or other public disclosure prior to its release). Without the prior written consent of any
applicable Buyer, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates shall disclose the

- 21 -

 

any Notes or Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall not, in any manner, enter into or

          (l) Corporate Existence. So long as any Buyer beneficially owns any Securities, the
Company shall not be party to any Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Notes) unless the
Company is in compliance with the applicable provisions governing Fundamental Transactions set
forth in the Notes and the Warrants.

          (m) Reservation of Shares. So long as any Buyer owns any Securities, the Company

upon exercise of the Warrants then outstanding (without taking into account any limitations on the
conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants set forth in the Notes and Warrants,
respectively).

          (n) Conduct of Business. The business of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not
be conducted in violation of any law, ordinance or regulation of any governmental entity, except
where such violations would not result, either individually or in the aggregate, in a Material
Adverse Effect.

          (o) Additional Issuances of Securities.

               (i) For purposes of this Section 4(o), the following definitions shall apply.

               (1) “Convertible Securities” means any stock or securities (other than Options)
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock.

               (2) “Options” means any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for or purchase shares
of Common Stock or Convertible Securities.

               (3) “Common Stock Equivalents” means, collectively, Options and Convertible Securities.

               (ii) From the date hereof until the date that is 30 Business Days following the date upon
which all Registrable Securities have been registered or eligible for resale under Rule 144 without
the requirement to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) and otherwise without restriction or
limitation pursuant to Rule 144 (the “Trigger Date”), the Company will not, (i) directly or
indirectly, offer, sell, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise

- 22 -

 

dispose of (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition
of) any of its or its Subsidiaries’ debt, equity or equity equivalent securities, including without
limitation any debt, preferred stock or other instrument or security that is, at any time during
its life and under any circumstances, convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (any such offer, sale, grant, disposition or announcement
being referred to as a “Subsequent Placement”) or (ii) be party to any solicitations, negotiations
or discussions with regard to the foregoing.

               (iii) From the Trigger Date until the third anniversary of the Trigger Date, the Company will
not, directly or indirectly, effect any Subsequent Placement unless the Company shall have first
complied with this Section 4(o)(iii).

               (1) The Company shall deliver to each Buyer written notice (the “Offer Notice”) of any
proposed or intended issuance or sale or exchange (the “Offer”) of the securities being
offered (the “Offered Securities”) in a Subsequent Placement, which Offer Notice shall (w)
identify and describe the Offered Securities, (x) describe the price and other terms upon
which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Offered
Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (y) identify the persons or entities (if known)
to which or with which the Offered Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged
and (z) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with such Buyers all of the Offered
Securities, allocated among such Buyers (a) based on such Buyer’s pro rata portion of the
aggregate principal amount of New Notes purchased hereunder (the “Basic Amount”), and (b)
with respect to each Buyer that elects to purchase its Basic Amount, any additional portion
of the Offered Securities attributable to the Basic Amounts of other Buyers as such Buyer
shall indicate it will purchase or acquire should the other Buyers subscribe for less than
their Basic Amounts (the “Undersubscription Amount”).

               (2) To accept an Offer, in whole or in part, such Buyer must deliver a written notice
to the Company prior to the end of the tenth (10th) Business Day after such
Buyer’s receipt of the Offer Notice (the “Offer Period”), setting forth the portion of such
Buyer’s Basic Amount that such Buyer elects to purchase and, if such Buyer shall elect to
purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription Amount, if any, that such Buyer
elects to purchase (in either case, the “Notice of Acceptance”). If the Basic Amounts
subscribed for by all Buyers are less than the total of all of the Basic Amounts, then each
Buyer who has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance shall be
entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Undersubscription
Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, that if the
Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceed the difference between the total of all the
Basic Amounts and the Basic Amounts subscribed for (the “Available Undersubscription
Amount”), each Buyer who has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall be entitled
to purchase only that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Basic Amount
of such Buyer bears to the total Basic Amounts of all Buyers that have subscribed for
Undersubscription Amounts, subject to rounding by the Company to the extent its deems
reasonably necessary.

- 23 -

 

               (3) The Company shall have five (5) Business Days from the expiration of the Offer
Period above to offer, issue, sell or exchange all or any part of such Offered Securities as
to which a Notice of Acceptance has not been given by the Buyers (the “Refused Securities”),
but only to the offerees described in the Offer Notice (if so described therein) and only
upon terms and conditions (including, without limitation, unit prices and interest rates)
that are not more favorable to the acquiring person or persons or less favorable to the
Company than those set forth in the Offer Notice.

               (4) In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Refused Securities
(any such sale to be in the manner and on the terms specified in Section 4(o)(iii)(3)
above), then each Buyer may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, reduce the
number or amount of the Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an
amount that shall be not less than the number or amount of the Offered Securities that such
Buyer elected to purchase pursuant to Section 4(o)(iii)(2) above multiplied by a fraction,
(i) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Offered Securities the Company
actually proposes to issue, sell or exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or
sold to Buyers pursuant to Section 4(o)(iii)(3) above prior to such reduction) and (ii) the
denominator of which shall be the original amount of the Offered Securities. In the event
that any Buyer so elects to reduce the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in
its Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced
number or amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been
offered to the Buyers in accordance with Section 4(o)(iii)(1) above.

               (5) Upon the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the
Refused Securities, the Buyers shall acquire from the Company, and the Company shall issue
to the Buyers, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in the Notices of
Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section 4(o)(iii)(3) above if the Buyers have so elected,
upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer. The purchase by the Buyers of any
Offered Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the
Company and the Buyers of a purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities
reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Buyers and their respective counsel.

               (6) Any Offered Securities not acquired by the Buyers or other persons in accordance
with Section 4(o)(iii)(3) above may not be issued, sold or exchanged until they are again
offered to the Buyers under the procedures specified in this Agreement.

               (iv) The restrictions contained in subsections (ii) and (iii) of this Section 4(o) shall not
apply in connection with the issuance of any Excluded Securities (as defined in the Notes).

          (p) Additional Registration Statements. Until the Trigger Date, the Company will not
file a registration statement under the 1933 Act relating to securities that are not the
Securities, without the prior written consent of the Buyer.

- 24 -

 

          (q) Collateral Agent.

               (i) Each Buyer hereby (a) appoints Castlerigg, as the collateral agent hereunder and under the
other Security Agreement (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”), and (b) authorizes the
Collateral Agent (and its officers, directors, employees and agents) to take such action on such
Buyer’s behalf in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. The Collateral Agent shall not
have, by reason hereof or the Security Agreement, a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Buyer.
Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees and agents shall have
any liability to any Buyer for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection hereof or the
Security Agreement except to the extent caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct,
and each Buyer agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Agent and all
of its officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against
any losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, fees, costs
and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses)
incurred by such Indemnitee, whether direct, indirect or consequential, arising from or in
connection with the performance by such Indemnitee of the duties and obligations of Collateral
Agent pursuant hereto or the Security Agreement.

               (ii) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notices, statements,
certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message believed by it in good faith to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to
all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents and its duties
hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.

               (iii) The Collateral Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties
hereunder and under the Notes and the Agreement at any time by giving at least ten (10) Business
Days prior written notice to the Company and each holder of the Notes. Such resignation shall take
effect upon the acceptance by a successor Collateral Agent of appointment as provided below. Upon
any such notice of resignation, the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal under the
Notes shall appoint a successor Collateral Agent. Upon the acceptance of the appointment as
Collateral Agent, such successor Collateral Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the
Security Agreement. After any Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this
Section 4(q) shall inure to its benefit. If a successor Collateral Agent shall not have been so
appointed within said ten (10) Business Day period, the retiring Collateral Agent shall then
appoint a successor Collateral Agent who shall serve until such time, if any, as the holders of a
majority of the outstanding principal under the Notes appoint a successor Collateral Agent as
provided above.

          (r) Stockholder Approval. If the Common Stock is listed on an Eligible Market other
than the Principal Market (the “New Principal Market”) and the issuance of the Common Shares,
Conversion Shares, the Interest Shares and Warrant Shares as contemplated under the Transaction
Documents would exceed that number of shares of Common Stock which the Company may issue without
breaching the Company’s obligations under the rules or

- 25 -

 

regulations of the New Principal Market, then the Company shall obtain the approval of its
stockholders as required by the applicable rules of the New Principal Market for issuances of the
Conversion Shares, Warrant Shares and Interest Shares in excess of such amount. At such time, the
Company shall provide each stockholder entitled to vote at a special or annual meeting of
stockholders of the Company (the “Stockholder Meeting”), which shall be promptly called and held
not later than 75 days after the earlier of (i) the New Principal Market indication of and (ii) the
Company becoming aware of, any limitation imposed by the New Principal Market on the issuance of
Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (the “Stockholder Meeting Deadline”), a proxy statement,
substantially in the form which has been previously reviewed by the Buyers and Schulte Roth & Zabel
LLP at the expense of the Company, soliciting each such stockholder’s affirmative vote at the
Stockholder Meeting for approval of resolutions providing for the Company’s issuance of all of the
Securities as described in the Transaction Documents in accordance with applicable law and the
rules and regulations of the New Principal Market and such affirmative approval being referred to
herein as the “Stockholder Approval”), and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
solicit its stockholders’ approval of such resolutions and to cause the Board of Directors of the
Company to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such resolutions. The Company shall be
obligated to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Stockholder Approval by the Stockholder
Meeting Deadline. If, despite the Company’s reasonable best efforts the Stockholder Approval is
not obtained on or prior to the Stockholder Meeting Deadline, the Company shall cause an additional
Stockholder Meeting to be held every six (6) months thereafter until such Stockholder Approval is
obtained or the Notes are no longer outstanding.

          (s) Trading in Common Stock. For the period commencing on the date hereof and ending
on the Initial Effective Date, each Buyer, severally and not jointly with the other Buyers,
covenants that neither it nor any affiliate acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding
with it will execute any “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO under the Exchange
Act), whether or not against the box, establish any “put equivalent position” (as defined in Rule
16a-l(h) under the 1934 Act) with respect to the Common Stock, or grant any other right (including
any put or call option) with respect to the Common Stock or with respect to any security that
includes, relates to or derived any significant part of its value from the Common Stock. For so
long as each Buyer owns any Notes, such Buyer shall not maintain a Net Short Position. For
purposes of this Section, a “Net Short Position” by a person means a position whereby such person
has executed one or more sales of Common Stock that is marked as a short sale and that is executed
at a time when such Buyer has no equivalent offsetting long position in the Common Stock or
contract for the foregoing. For purposes of determining whether a Buyer has an equivalent
offsetting long position in the Common Stock, all Common Stock (i) that is owned by such Buyer,
(ii) that may be issued as Interest Shares pursuant to the terms of the Notes to the Buyer, or
(iii) that would be issuable upon conversion or exercise in full of all Securities then held by
such Buyer (assuming that such Securities were then fully convertible or exercisable,
notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary, and giving effect to any conversion or exercise
price adjustments that would take effect given only the passage of time) shall be deemed to be held
long by such Buyer.

- 26 -

 

          (t) Closing Documents. On or prior to fourteen (14) calendar days after the Closing
Date, the Company agrees to deliver, or cause to be delivered, to each Buyer and Schulte
Roth & Zabel LLP executed copies of the Transaction Documents, Securities and any other
document required to be delivered to any party pursuant to Section 7 hereof.

          (u) Piggy-Back Registrations.

               (i) If at any time the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the Commission a
registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others under
the Securities Act of any of its equity securities (other than on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as
promulgated under the Securities Act) or their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be
issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities
issuable in connection with stock option or other employee or director benefit plans), then the
Company shall send to each Buyer written notice of such determination and, if within twenty days
after receipt of such notice, any such Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall
include in such registration statement all or any part of such Registrable Securities such holder
requests to be registered, subject to customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of
registration rights on a pro rata basis (along with other holders of piggyback registration rights
with respect to the Company); provided, that (A) the Company shall not be required to register any
Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 4(u) that are (I) eligible for resale under Rule
144 without the requirement to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) and otherwise without
restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144, or (II) that are the subject of a then effective
registration statement and (B) if at any time after giving written notice of its intention to
register any securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in
connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register or to
delay registration of such securities, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of
such determination to such Holder and, thereupon, (i) in the case of a determination not to
register, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities pursuant to
this Section 4(u) in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay expenses
in accordance with Section 4(u) hereof), and (ii) in the case of a determination to delay
registering, shall be permitted to delay registering any Registrable Securities being registered
pursuant to this Section 4(u) for the same period as the delay in registering such other
securities.

               (ii) Registration Expenses. All fees and expenses incident to the Company’s
performance of or compliance with its obligations under this Agreement (excluding any underwriting
discounts and selling commissions and all legal fees and expenses of legal counsel for any Buyer)
shall be borne by the Company whether or not any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to a
Registration Statement. The fees and expenses referred to in the foregoing sentence shall include,
without limitation, (i) all registration and filing fees (including, without limitation, fees and
expenses (A) with respect to filings required to be made with any Trading Market on which the
Common Stock is then listed for trading, (B) in compliance with applicable state securities or Blue
Sky laws (including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company in
connection with Blue Sky qualifications or exemptions of the Registrable Securities and
determination of the eligibility of the Registrable Securities for investment under the laws of
such jurisdictions as requested by the Holders) and (C) with respect to any filing that may be
required to be made by any broker through which a Holder intends to make sales of Registrable
Securities with the Corporate Financing Department of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc.
(“FINRA”) pursuant NASD Rule 2710(b)(10)(A)(i), so long

- 27 -

 

as the broker is receiving no more than a customary brokerage commission in connection with
such sale, (ii) printing expenses (including, without limitation, expenses of printing certificates
for Registrable Securities and of printing prospectuses if the printing of prospectuses is
reasonably requested by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in the
Registration Statement), (iii) messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, (iv) fees and
disbursements of counsel for the Company, (v) Securities Act liability insurance, if the Company so
desires such insurance, and (vi) fees and expenses of all other Persons retained by the Company in
connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section. In addition,
the Company shall be responsible for all of its internal expenses incurred in connection with the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section (including, without limitation, all
salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the
expense of any annual audit and the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of
the Registrable Securities on any securities exchange as required hereunder. In no event shall the
Company be responsible for any broker or similar commissions of any Holder.

          (v) Public Information. At any time during the period commencing on the six (6) month
anniversary of the Closing Date and ending at such time that all of the Securities can be sold
without the requirement to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) and otherwise without restriction
or limitation pursuant to Rule 144, if a registration statement is not available for the resale of
all of the Securities and the Company shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public
information requirement under Rule 144 (a “Public Information Failure”) then, as partial relief for
the damages to any holder of Securities by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability
to sell the Securities (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available at law
or in equity), the Company shall pay to each such holder an amount in cash equal to two percent
(2.0%) of the aggregate Purchase Price of such holder’s Securities on the day of a Public
Information Failure and on every thirtieth day (pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty
days) thereafter until the earlier of (i) the date such Public Information Failure is cured and
(ii) such time that such public information is no longer required pursuant to Rule 144. The
payments to which a holder shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 4(w) are referred to herein
as “Public Information Failure Payments.” Public Information Failure Payments shall be paid on the
earlier of (I) the last day of the calendar month during which such Public Information Failure
Payments are incurred and (II) the third Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the
Public Information Failure Payments is cured. In the event the Company fails to make Public
Information Failure Payments in a timely manner, such Public Information Failure Payments shall
bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Public Information Failure Payments shall be
due and payable hereunder for any date after the first anniversary of the Closing Date.

     5. REGISTER; TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.

          (a) Register. The Company shall maintain at its principal executive offices (or such
other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to each holder of Securities),
a register for the Notes and the Warrants in which the Company shall record the name and address of
the Person in whose name the Notes and the Warrants have been issued (including the name and
address of each transferee), the principal amount of Notes held by such

- 28 -

 

Person, the number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes and Warrant
Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants held by such Person. The Company shall keep the
register open and available at all times during business hours for inspection of any Buyer or its
legal representatives.

          (b) Transfer Agent Instructions. The Company shall issue irrevocable instructions to
its transfer agent, and any subsequent transfer agent, to issue certificates or credit shares to
the applicable balance accounts at The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), registered in the name of
each Buyer or its respective nominee(s), for the Common Shares, the Interest Shares, the Conversion
Shares and the Warrant Shares issued at the Closing or upon conversion of the Notes or exercise of
the Warrants in such amounts as specified from time to time by each Buyer to the Company upon
conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants in the form of Exhibit E attached
hereto (the “Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions”). The Company warrants that no instruction
other than the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 5(b), and stop
transfer instructions to give effect to Section 2(g) hereof, will be given by the Company to its
transfer agent, and that the Securities shall otherwise be freely transferable on the books and
records of the Company as and to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents. If a Buyer effects a sale, assignment or transfer of the Securities in accordance with
Section 2(f), the Company shall permit the transfer and shall promptly instruct its transfer agent
to issue one or more certificates or credit shares to the applicable balance accounts at DTC in
such name and in such denominations as specified by such Buyer to effect such sale, transfer or
assignment. In the event that such sale, assignment or transfer involves Common Shares, Interest
Shares, Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to an effective
registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144, the transfer agent shall issue such Securities to
the Buyer, assignee or transferee, as the case may be, without any restrictive legend. The Company
acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to a
Buyer. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its
obligations under this Section 5(b) will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or
threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section 5(b), that a Buyer shall be
entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an order and/or injunction restraining
any breach and requiring immediate issuance and transfer, without the necessity of showing economic
loss and without any bond or other security being required.

               (xiii) Within six (6) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Company shall have delivered or
caused to be delivered to each Buyer (A) certified copies of UCC search results, listing all
effective financing statements which name as debtor the Company or any of its

- 31 -

 

Subsidiaries filed in the prior five years to perfect an interest in any assets thereof,
together with copies of such financing statements, none of which, except as otherwise agreed in
writing by the Buyers, shall cover any of the Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) and
the results of searches for any tax lien and judgment lien filed against such Person or its
property, which results, except as otherwise agreed to in writing by the Buyers shall not show any
such Liens (as defined in the Security Agreement); and (B) a perfection certificate, duly completed
and executed by the Company and each of its Subsidiaries, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Buyers.

               (xiv) The Company shall have delivered to such Buyer such other documents relating to the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement as such Buyer or its counsel may reasonably request.

     8. TERMINATION. In the event that the Closing shall not have occurred with respect to
a Buyer on or before five (5) Business Days from the date hereof due to the Company’s or such
Buyer’s failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Sections 6 and 7 above (and the nonbreaching
party’s failure to waive such unsatisfied condition(s)), the nonbreaching party shall have the
option to terminate this Agreement with respect to such breaching party at the close of business on
such date without liability of any party to any other party; provided, however,
this if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 8, the Company shall remain obligated
to reimburse the non-breaching Buyers for the expenses described in Section 4(g) above.

     9. MISCELLANEOUS.

          (a) Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. All questions concerning the
construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the
internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of
law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would
cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. Each
party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts
sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute
hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed
herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding,
any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit,
action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or
proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and
consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof
to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such
service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner
permitted by law. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO
REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR
ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

- 32 -

 

          (b) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical
counterparts, all of which 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;
provided that a facsimile signature shall be considered due execution and shall be binding upon the
signatory thereto with the same force and effect as if the signature were an original, not a
facsimile signature.

          (c) Headings. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and
shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement.

          (d) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or
otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the
provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to
apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or
unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of
this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material
change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited
nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially
impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical
realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will
endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable
provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of
the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).

          (e) Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents
supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the Buyers, the Company, their
affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf with respect to the matters discussed herein, and
this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the instruments referenced herein and therein
contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters covered herein and
therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company nor any Buyer
makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. No
provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the
Company and the holders of at least a majority of the aggregate number of Registrable Securities
issued and issuable hereunder, and any amendment to this Agreement made in conformity with the
provisions of this Section 9(e) shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Securities, as
applicable. No provision hereof may be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the
party against whom enforcement is sought. No such amendment shall be effective to the extent that
it applies to less than all of the holders of the applicable Securities then outstanding. 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
also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents, holders of Notes or holders of
the Warrants, as the case may be. The Company has not, directly or indirectly, made any agreements
with any Buyers relating to the terms or conditions of the transactions contemplated by the
Transaction Documents except as set forth in
the Transaction Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company confirms that, except
as set forth in this Agreement, no Buyer has made any commitment or promise or has any other
obligation to provide any financing to the Company or otherwise.

rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the holders of at least a
majority of the aggregate number of Registrable Securities issued and issuable hereunder, including
by way of a Fundamental Transaction (unless the Company is in compliance with the applicable
provisions governing Fundamental Transactions set forth in the Notes and the Warrants). A Buyer
may assign some or all of its rights hereunder without the consent of the Company, in which event
such assignee shall be deemed to be a Buyer hereunder with respect to such assigned rights.

          (h) No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit
of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person.

          (i) Survival. Unless this Agreement is terminated under Section 8, the
representations and warranties of the Company and the Buyers contained in Sections 2 and 3 and the
agreements and covenants set forth in Sections 4, 5 and 9 shall survive the Closing. Each Buyer
shall be responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants
hereunder.

          (j) Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and
performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other
agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in
order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby.

          (k) Indemnification. In consideration of each Buyer’s execution and delivery of the
Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of the
Company’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall defend, protect,
indemnify and hold harmless each Buyer and each other holder of the Securities and all of their
stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors
and any of the foregoing Persons’ agents or other representatives (including, without
limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement)
(collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits,
claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection
therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which
indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements

- 35 -

 

(the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or
relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the
Company in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated
hereby or thereby, (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained
in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby
or thereby or (c) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a
third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company) and
arising out of or resulting from (i) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the
Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or
thereby, (ii) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or
indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities, (iii) any disclosure made by such
Buyer pursuant to Section 4(i), or (iv) the status of such Buyer or holder of the Securities as an
investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. To
the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the
Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the
Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth
herein, the mechanics and procedures with respect to the rights and obligations under this Section
9(k) shall be the same as those set forth in Section 6 of that certain registration rights
agreement entered into in connection with the August 2007 Securities Purchase Agreement.

          (l) August 2007 Warrant Amendment. The Company and Buyers agree that the August 2007
Warrants are hereby amended as follows:

               (i) The following sentence shall be inserted as the penultimate sentence of the first
paragraph of Section 2(a):

“Upon each such adjustment of the Exercise Price hereunder, the number of Warrant
Shares shall be adjusted to the number of shares of Common Stock determined by
multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the
number of Warrant Shares acquirable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior
to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the Exercise Price resulting
from such adjustment.”

               (ii) The following sentence shall be inserted as the last sentence of Section 2(c):

“Upon each such adjustment of the Exercise Price hereunder, the number of Warrant
Shares shall be adjusted to the number of shares of Common Stock determined by
multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the
number of Warrant Shares acquirable upon exercise of this
Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the
Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.”

- 36 -

 

          (m) No Strict Construction. 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.

          (n) Termination of Registration Obligations Under August 2007 Registration Rights
Agreement. The registration obligation in Section 2 of the August 2007 Registration Rights
Agreement are hereby terminated and the Company and the Buyers agree that the Buyers and the
Company shall be relieved of their respective obligations under Section 2 of the August 2007
Registration Rights Agreement.

          (o) Remedies. Each Buyer and each holder of the Securities shall have all rights and
remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights and remedies which such holders have
been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such
holders have under any law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement
shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security),
to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all
other rights granted by law. Furthermore, the Company recognizes that in the event that it fails
to perform, observe, or discharge any or all of its obligations under the Transaction Documents,
any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Buyers. The Company therefore agrees
that the Buyers shall be entitled to seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such
case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security.

          (p) Rescission and Withdrawal Right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in (and without limiting any similar provisions of) the Transaction Documents, whenever
any Buyer 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
such Buyer 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.

          (q) Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to
the Buyers hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or the Buyers enforce or
exercise their rights hereunder or 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 Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law
(including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, foreign, 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.

          (r) Individual Buyer. Notwithstanding anything in this agreement to the contrary, or
any references to “Buyers” herein, Castlerigg Master Investments Ltd. acknowledges and the Company
confirms that Castlerigg Master Investments Ltd.is the only Buyer party to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.
