binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance

of Designation and the consummation by the Company of the transactions

subsidiaries is not being conducted in 

 4
 

violation of any laws, ordinances or regulations of any governmental
entity, except for possible violations which singularly or in the aggregate do

state or local law, rule or regulation to obtain any consent, authorization or
order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental
agency in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations
under the Transaction Documents, or issue and sell the Preferred Shares, the
Warrants, the Warrant Preferred Shares, the Conversion Shares and the Warrant
Shares in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof (other than any filings
which may be required to be made by the Company with the Commission or state
securities administrators subsequent to the Closing, any registration statement
which may be filed pursuant hereto, and the Certificate of Designation); provided
that, for purposes of the representation made in this sentence, the Company is
assuming and relying upon the accuracy of the relevant representations and
agreements of the Purchasers herein.

against the Company or any subsidiary which questions the validity of this
Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or to be taken pursuant
hereto or thereto.  There is no action,
suit, claim, investigation, arbitration, alternate dispute resolution
proceeding or any other proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of the Company,
threatened, against or involving the Company, any subsidiary or any of their
respective properties or assets.  There
are no outstanding orders, judgments, injunctions, awards or decrees of any
court, arbitrator or governmental or regulatory body against the Company or any

(n)           Compliance with
Law.  The business of the Company and
the subsidiaries has been and is presently being conducted in accordance with
all applicable federal, state and local governmental laws, rules, regulations
and ordinances, except for such noncompliance that, individually or in the
aggregate, would not cause a Material Adverse Effect.  The Company and each of its subsidiaries have
all franchises, permits, licenses, consents and other governmental or
regulatory authorizations and approvals necessary for the conduct of its
business as now being conducted by it unless the failure to possess such
franchises, permits, licenses, consents and other governmental or regulatory
authorizations and approvals, individually or in the aggregate, could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

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

(p)           Certain Fees.  Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(p), the
Company has not employed any broker or finder or incurred any liability for any
brokerage or investment banking fees, commissions, finders’ structuring fees,
financial advisory fees or other similar fees in connection with the
Transaction Documents.

(q)           Disclosure.  Neither this Agreement or the Schedules
hereto nor any other documents, certificates or instruments furnished to the
Purchasers by or on behalf of the Company or any subsidiary in connection with
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement contain any untrue statement of
a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the
statements made herein or therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made herein or therein, not misleading.

(r)            Operation of
Business.  The Company and each of
the subsidiaries owns or possesses all patents, trademarks, domain names
(whether or not registered) and any patentable improvements or copyrightable
derivative works thereof, websites and intellectual property rights relating
thereto, service marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and authorizations as
set forth in the Form 10-KSB, and all rights with respect to the foregoing,
which are necessary for the conduct of its business as now conducted without
any conflict with the rights of others.

(s)           Environmental
Compliance.  The Company and each of
its subsidiaries have obtained all material approvals, authorization,
certificates, consents, licenses, orders and permits or other similar
authorizations of all governmental authorities, or from any other person, that
are required under any  Environmental
Laws.  The Form 10-KSB or Form 10-QSB
describes all material permits, licenses and other authorizations issued under
any Environmental Laws to the Company or its subsidiaries.  “Environmental Laws” shall mean all
applicable laws relating to the protection of the environment including,
without limitation, all requirements pertaining to reporting, licensing,
permitting, controlling, investigating or remediating emissions, discharges,
releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances, chemical substances,
pollutants, contaminants or toxic substances, materials or wastes, whether
solid, liquid or gaseous in nature, into the air, surface water, groundwater or
land, or relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment,
storage, disposal, transport or handling of hazardous substances, chemical
substances, pollutants, contaminants or toxic substances, material or wastes,
whether solid, liquid or gaseous in nature. 
The Company has all necessary governmental approvals required under all
Environmental Laws and used in its business or in the business of any of its subsidiaries.  The Company and each of its subsidiaries are
also in compliance with all other limitations, restrictions, conditions,
standards, requirements, schedules and timetables required or imposed under all
Environmental Laws.  Except for such
instances as would not individually or in the aggregate have a Material Adverse
Effect, there are no past or present events, conditions, circumstances,
incidents, actions or omissions relating to or in any way affecting the Company
or its subsidiaries that violate or may violate any Environmental Law after the
Closing Date or that may give rise to any environmental liability, or otherwise
form the basis of any claim, action, demand, suit, proceeding, hearing, study
or investigation (i) under any Environmental Law, or (ii) based on or related
to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage
(including without limitation underground storage tanks), disposal, transport
or handling, or the emission, discharge, release or threatened release of any
hazardous substance.

(t)            Books and Record
Internal Accounting Controls.  The
books and records of the Company and its subsidiaries accurately reflect in all
material respects the information relating to the business of the Company and
the subsidiaries, the location and collection of their assets, and the nature
of all transactions giving rise to the obligations or accounts receivable of 

 8
 

the Company or any subsidiary. 
The Company and each of its subsidiaries maintain a system of internal
accounting controls sufficient, in the judgment of the Company, to provide
reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with
management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded
as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with
GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted
only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization and (iv)
the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at
reasonable intervals and appropriate actions is taken with respect to any
differences.

(u)           Material
Agreements.  Neither the Company nor
any subsidiary is a party to any written or oral contract, instrument,
agreement, commitment, obligation, plan or arrangement, a copy of which would
be required to be filed with the Commission as an exhibit to a registration
statement on Form S-3 or applicable form (collectively, “Material Agreements”)
if the Company or any subsidiary were registering securities under the
Securities Act.  The Company and each of
its subsidiaries has in all material respects performed all the obligations
required to be performed by them to date under the foregoing agreements, have
received no notice of default and are not in default under any Material
Agreement now in effect, the result of which could cause a Material Adverse
Effect.  No written or oral contract,
instrument, agreement, commitment, obligation, plan or arrangement of the
Company or of any subsidiary limits or shall limit the payment of dividends on
the Company’s Preferred Shares, other preferred stock, if any, or its Common
Stock.

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

(w)          Securities Act of
1933.  Based in material part upon
the representations herein of the Purchasers, the Company has complied and will
comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws in connection with
the offer, issuance and sale of the Shares and the Warrants hereunder.  Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its
behalf, directly or indirectly, has or will sell, offer to sell or solicit

Warrants under the registration provisions of the Securities Act and applicable
state securities laws, and neither the Company nor any of its affiliates, nor
any person acting on its or their behalf, has engaged in any form of general
solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D under
the Securities Act) in connection with the offer or sale of any of the Shares

filed on a timely basis), including the filing of a Form D and a registration
statement or statements pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, and the
filing of the Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State for the
State of Nevada, no authorization, consent, approval, license, exemption of,

covenant, relating to the right of any officer, employee or consultant to be
employed or engaged by the Company or such subsidiary.  No officer, consultant or key employee of the
Company or any subsidiary whose termination, either individually or in the
aggregate, could have a Material Adverse Effect, has terminated or, to the
knowledge of the Company, has any present intention of terminating his or her
employment or engagement with the Company or any subsidiary.

(aa)         Public Utility
Holding Company Act and Investment Company Act Status.  The Company is not a “holding company” or a “public
utility company” as such terms are defined in the Public Utility Holding
Company Act of 1935, as amended.  The
Company is not, and as a result of and immediately upon the Closing will not
be, an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment
company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

(bb)         ERISA.  No liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation has been incurred with respect to any Plan (as defined below) by
the Company or any of its subsidiaries which is or would be materially adverse
to the Company and its subsidiaries.  The
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the issuance and sale of the
Preferred Shares will not involve any transaction which is subject to the
prohibitions of Section 406 of ERISA or in connection with which a tax could be
imposed pursuant to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, provided that, if any of the Purchasers, or any person or entity that 

 11
 

owns a beneficial interest in any of the Purchasers, is an “employee
pension benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA) with
respect to which the Company is a “party in interest” (within the meaning of
Section 3(14) of ERISA), the requirements of Sections 407(d)(5) and 408(e) of
ERISA, if applicable, are met.  As used
in this Section 2.1(bb), the term “Plan” shall mean an “employee pension
benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3 of ERISA) which is or has been
established or maintained, or to which contributions are or have been made, by
the Company or any subsidiary or by any trade or business, whether or not
incorporated, which, together with the Company or any subsidiary, is under
common control, as described in Section 414(b) or (c) of the Code.

(cc)         Dilutive Effect.  The Company understands and acknowledges that
its obligation to issue Conversion Shares upon conversion of the Preferred
Shares in accordance with this Agreement and the Certificate of Designation and
its obligations to issue the Warrants Shares upon the conversion of the Warrant
Preferred Shares in accordance with this Agreement, the Certificate of
Designation and the Warrants, in each case, is absolute and unconditional
regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership
interest of other stockholders of the Company.

(dd)         No Integrated
Offering.  Neither the Company, nor
any of its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has
directly or indirectly made any offers or sales of any security or solicited
any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would cause the
offering of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement to be integrated with prior
offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act which would prevent
the Company from selling the Shares pursuant to Rule 506 under the Securities
Act, or any applicable exchange-related stockholder approval provisions, nor
will the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries take any action or
steps that would cause the offering of the Shares to be integrated with other
offerings.  The Company does not have any
registration statement pending before the Commission or currently under the
Commission’s review and since  December
1, 2006, the Company has not offered or sold any of its equity securities or
debt securities convertible into shares of Common Stock.

applicable provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley
Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, that are
effective, and intends to comply with other applicable provisions of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, upon
the effectiveness of such provisions.

on Schedule 2.1(gg) hereto.

Section 2.2             Representations
and Warranties of the Purchasers. 
Each Purchaser hereby makes the following representations and warranties
to the Company with respect solely to itself and not with respect to any other
Purchaser:

(a)           Organization and
Standing of the Purchasers.  If the
Purchaser is an entity, such Purchaser is a corporation or partnership duly
incorporated or organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization.

(b)           Authorization and
Power.  Each Purchaser has the
requisite power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement and to
purchase the Preferred Shares and Warrants being sold to it hereunder.  The execution, delivery and performance of
this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement by such Purchaser and the
consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or partnership action, and no
further consent or authorization of such Purchaser or its Board of Directors,
stockholders, or partners, as the case may be, is required.  Each of this Agreement and the Registration
Rights Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such
Purchaser and constitutes, or shall constitute when executed and delivered, a
valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser enforceable against the Purchaser
in accordance with the terms thereof.

(c)           No Conflicts.  The execution, delivery and performance of
this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement and the consummation by
such Purchaser of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or relating
hereto do not and will not (i) result in a violation of such Purchaser’s
charter documents or bylaws or other organizational documents 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, purchase or cancellation of any
agreement, indenture or instrument or obligation to which such Purchaser is a
party or by which its properties or assets are bound, or result in a violation
of any law, rule, or regulation, or any order, judgment or decree of any court
or governmental agency applicable to such Purchaser or its properties (except
for such conflicts, defaults and violations as would not, individually or in
the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on such Purchaser).  Such Purchaser is not required to obtain any
consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with,
any court or governmental agency in order for it to execute, deliver or perform
any of its obligations under this Agreement or the Registration Rights
Agreement or to purchase the Preferred Shares or acquire the Warrants in
accordance with the terms hereof, provided that for purposes of the
representation made in this sentence, such Purchaser is assuming and relying
upon the accuracy of the relevant representations and agreements of the Company
herein.

(d)           Acquisition for
Investment.  Each Purchaser is
acquiring the Preferred Shares and the Warrants solely for its own account for
the purpose of investment and not with a view to or for sale in connection with
distribution.  Each Purchaser does not
have a present intention to sell the Preferred Shares or the Warrants, nor a
present arrangement (whether or not legally binding) or intention to effect any
distribution of the Preferred Shares or the Warrants to or through any person
or entity; provided, however, that by making the representations
herein and subject to Section 2.2(h) below, such Purchaser does not agree to
hold the Shares or the 

 13
 

Warrants for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right
to dispose of the Shares at any time in accordance with Federal and state
securities laws applicable to such disposition. 
Each Purchaser acknowledges that it is able to bear the financial risks
associated with an investment in the Preferred Shares and the Warrants and that
it has been given full access to such records of the Company and the
subsidiaries and to the officers of the Company and the subsidiaries and
received such information as it has deemed necessary or appropriate to conduct
its due diligence investigation and has sufficient knowledge and experience in
investing in companies similar to the Company in terms of the Company’s stage
of development so as to be able to evaluate the risks and merits of its
investment in the Company.

(e)           Status of
Purchasers.  Each Purchaser is an “accredited
investor” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.  Such Purchaser is not required to be
registered as a broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act and such
Purchaser is not a broker-dealer.

(f)            Opportunities
for Additional Information.  Each
Purchaser acknowledges that such Purchaser has had the opportunity to ask
questions of and receive answers from, or obtain additional information from,
the executive officers of the Company concerning the financial and other
affairs of the Company, and to the extent deemed necessary in light of such
Purchaser’s personal knowledge of the Company’s affairs, such Purchaser has
asked such questions and received answers to the full satisfaction of such
Purchaser, and such Purchaser desires to invest in the Company.

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

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

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

 14
 

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

the dividends paid thereon other than as dividends paid on equity capital
unless required to do so by a governmental body having jurisdiction over the
accounts of the Company or by a change in generally accepted accounting
principles required as a result of action by an authoritative accounting
standards setting body, and (iii) it will take no action which would result in
the dividends paid by the Company on the Preferred Shares out of the Company’s
current or accumulated earnings and profits being ineligible for the dividends
received deduction provided by Section 243(a)(1) of the Code.  The preceding sentence shall not be deemed to
prevent the Company from designating the Preferred Stock as “Convertible
Preferred Stock” in its annual and quarterly financial statements in accordance
with its prior practice concerning other series of preferred stock of the
Company.  In the event that the
Purchasers have reasonable cause to believe that dividends paid by the Company
on the Preferred Shares out of the Company’s current or accumulated earnings
and profits will not be treated as eligible for the dividends received
deduction provided by Section 243(a)(1) of the Code, or any successor
provision, the Company will, at the reasonable request of the Purchasers of 51%
of the outstanding Preferred Shares, join with the Purchasers in the submission
to the Service of a request for a ruling that dividends paid on the Shares will
be so eligible for Federal income tax purposes, at the Purchasers expense.  In addition, the Company will reasonably
cooperate with the Purchasers (at Purchasers’ expense) in any litigation,
appeal or other proceeding challenging or contesting any ruling, technical
advice, finding or determination that earnings and profits are not eligible for
the dividends received deduction provided by Section 243(a)(1) of the Code, or
any successor provision to the extent that the position to be taken in any such
litigation, appeal, or other proceeding is not contrary to any provision of the
Code.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
nothing herein contained shall be deemed to preclude the Company from claiming
a deduction with respect to such dividends if (i) the Code shall hereafter be
amended, or final Treasury regulations thereunder are issued or modified, to
provide that dividends on the Preferred Shares or Conversion Shares should not
be treated as dividends for Federal income tax purposes or that a deduction
with respect to all or a portion of the dividends on the Shares is allowable
for Federal income tax purposes, or (ii) in the absence of such an amendment,
issuance or modification and after a submission of a request for ruling or
technical advice, the Service shall issue a published ruling or advise that
dividends on the Shares should not be treated as dividends for Federal income
tax purposes.  If the Service
specifically determines that the Preferred Shares or Conversion Shares
constitute debt, the Company may file protective claims for refund.

Section 3.11           Use
of Proceeds.  The net proceeds from the
sale of the Shares hereunder shall be used by the Company to fund acquisitions and the balance
shall be used for working capital and general corporate purposes and not to
redeem any Common Stock or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable
into Common Stock or to settle any outstanding litigation.  The proceeds from the Closing shall be used
solely in accordance with the uses set forth in the Flow of Funds Memo attached
hereto as Schedule 3.11.

 17
 

Section 3.12           Reservation
of Shares.  So long as any of the
Preferred Shares, Preferred Warrant Shares or Warrants remain outstanding, the
Company shall take all action necessary to at all times have authorized, and
reserved for the purpose of issuance, no less than one hundred twenty percent
(120%) of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock needed to provide for
the issuance of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares.

Section 3.13           Transfer
Agent Instructions.  The Company
shall issue irrevocable instructions to its transfer agent, and any subsequent
transfer agent, to issue certificates, registered in the name of each Purchaser
or its respective nominee(s), for the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares
in such amounts as specified from time to time by each Purchaser to the Company
upon conversion of the Preferred Shares or conversion of the Preferred Warrant
Shares in the form of Exhibit F attached hereto (the “Irrevocable
Transfer Agent Instructions”).  Prior
to registration of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares under the
Securities Act, all such certificates shall bear the restrictive legend
specified in Section 5.1 of this Agreement. 
The Company warrants that no instruction other than the Irrevocable
Transfer Agent Instructions referred to in this Section 3.13 will be given by
the Company to its transfer agent and that the Shares shall otherwise be freely
transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to the extent
provided in this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement.  If a Purchaser provides the Company with an
opinion of counsel, in a generally acceptable form, to the effect that a public
sale, assignment or transfer of the Shares may be made without registration
under the Securities Act or the Purchaser provides the Company with reasonable
assurances that such Shares can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any
restriction as to the number of securities acquired as of a particular date
that can then be immediately sold, the Company shall permit the transfer, and,
in the case of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares promptly instruct
its transfer agent to issue one or more certificates in such name and in such
denominations as specified by such Purchaser and without any restrictive
legend.  The Company acknowledges that a
breach by it of its obligations under this Section 3.13 will cause irreparable
harm to the Purchasers by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction
contemplated hereby.  Accordingly, the
Company acknowledges that the remedy at law for a breach of its obligations
under this Section 3.13 will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a
breach or threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Section
3.13, that the Purchasers 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.

Section 3.14           Disposition
of Assets.  So long as any Preferred
Shares remain outstanding, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall sell,
transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties, assets and rights
including, without limitation, its software and intellectual property, to any
person except for sales to customers in the ordinary course of business or with
the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the Preferred Shares
then outstanding.

Section 3.15           Reporting Status.  So long as a Purchaser
beneficially owns any of the Shares, the Company shall timely file all reports
required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act, and the
Company shall not terminate its status as an issuer required to file reports
under the Exchange Act even if the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations
thereunder would permit such termination.

 18
 

Section 3.16           Disclosure
of Transaction.  The Company shall
issue a press release describing the material terms of the transactions
contemplated hereby (the “Press Release”) as soon as practicable after
the Closing but in no event later than 9:00 A.M. Eastern Time on the first
Trading Day following the Closing.  The
Company shall also file with the Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Form
8-K”) describing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby
(and attaching as exhibits thereto this Agreement, the Registration Rights
Agreement, the Certificate of Designation, the Stockholders Agreement, the form
of each series of Warrant and the Press Release) as soon as practicable
following the Closing Date but in no event more than two (2) Trading Days
following the Closing Date, which Press Release and Form 8-K shall be subject
to prior review and comment by the Purchasers. 
“Trading Day” means any day during which the OTC Bulletin Board
(or other quotation venue or principal exchange on which the Common Stock is
traded) shall be open for trading.

Section 3.17           Disclosure
of Material Information.  The Company
covenants and agrees that neither it nor any other person acting on its behalf
has provided or will provide any Purchaser or its agents or counsel with any
information that the Company believes constitutes material non-public
information (other than with respect to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement), unless prior thereto such Purchaser shall have executed a written
agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such information.  Upon
the request of the Purchasers, the Company shall provide a written confirmation
when such Purchaser is no longer in possession of material non-public
information under any such agreement. 
The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be
relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in
securities of the Company.

Section 3.18           Pledge
of Securities.  The Company
acknowledges and agrees that the Shares may be pledged by a Purchaser in
connection with a bona  fide margin agreement or other loan or
financing arrangement that is secured by the Common Stock.  The pledge of Common Stock shall not be
deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Common Stock hereunder, and
no Purchaser effecting a pledge of Common Stock 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; provided
that a Purchaser and its pledgee shall be required to comply with the
provisions of Article V hereof in order to effect a sale, transfer or
assignment of Common Stock to such pledgee. At the Purchasers’ expense, the
Company hereby agrees to execute and deliver such documentation as a pledgee of
the Common Stock may reasonably request in connection with a pledge of the
Common Stock to such pledgee by a Purchaser.

Section 3.19           Form
SB-2 Eligibility.  The Company
currently meets the “registrant eligibility” and transaction requirements set
forth in the general instructions to Form SB-2 applicable to “resale”
registrations on Form SB-2 and the Company shall file all reports required
to be filed by the Company with the Commission in a timely manner.

Section 3.20           Stockholders
Agreement.  The persons listed on Schedule
3.20 attached hereto shall be subject to the terms and provisions of a
Stockholders Agreement in substantially the form as Exhibit D hereto
(the “Stockholders Agreement”).

First Refusal on Additional Financings.

 19
 

(a)           For a period of twelve (12)
months following the last Closing Date under this Agreement, the Company
covenants and agrees to give the Purchasers the right of first refusal to
provide any additional financing (“Additional Financing”) on the same
terms and conditions described herein. 
The Company shall promptly notify (in no event later than five (5) days
after making or receiving an applicable offer) in writing (a “Rights Notice”)
the Purchasers of the terms and conditions of any proposed offer or sale to, or
exchange with (or other type of distribution to) any third party (a “Third
Party Financing”), of Common Stock or any debt or equity securities
convertible, exercisable or exchangeable into Common Stock; provided, however,
prior to delivering to each Purchaser a Rights Notice, the Company shall first
deliver to each Purchaser a written notice of its intention to effect a Third
Party Financing (“Pre-Notice”) within three (3) Trading Days of
receiving an applicable offer, which Pre-Notice shall ask such Purchaser if it
wants to review the details of such financing. 
Upon the request of a Purchaser, and only upon a request by such
Purchaser within three (3) Trading Days of receipt of a Pre-Notice, the Company
shall promptly, but no later than two (2) Trading Days after such request,
deliver a Rights Notice to such Purchaser.  The Rights Notice shall
describe, in reasonable detail, the proposed Third Party Financing and all of
the terms and conditions thereof and proposed definitive documentation to be
entered into in connection therewith. 
The Rights Notice shall provide each Purchaser an option (the “Rights
Option”) to inform the Company during the ten (10) Trading Days following
delivery of the Rights Notice (the “Option Period”) whether such
Purchaser will provide Additional Financing in the amount being offered in the
Third Party Financing on the same, absolute terms and conditions described in
this Agreement.  If the Company does not
receive notice of exercise of the Rights Option from the Purchasers within the
Option Period, the Company shall have the right to close the Third Party
Financing on the scheduled closing date with a third party.  If the closing of the proposed Subsequent
Financing does not occur on that date, any closing of the contemplated Third
Party Financing or any other Third Party Financing shall be subject to all of
the provisions of this Section 3.21(a), including, without limitation, the
delivery of a new Rights Notice.

(b)           For purposes of this Agreement, a
Permitted Financing (as defined hereinafter) shall not be considered a Third
Party Financing.  A “Permitted
Financing” shall mean (i) securities issued (other than for cash) in
connection with a merger, acquisition, or consolidation, (ii) securities issued
pursuant to the conversion or exercise of convertible or exercisable securities
issued or outstanding on or prior to the date of this Agreement or issued
pursuant to this Agreement (so long as the conversion or exercise price in such
securities are not amended to lower such price and/or adversely affect the
Purchasers), (iii) securities issued in connection with bona fide strategic
license agreements or other partnering arrangements so long as such issuances
are not for the purpose of raising capital, (iv) Common Stock issued or the
issuance or grants of options to purchase Common Stock pursuant to the

Purchase Agreement.

shall be entitled to designate two (2) individuals (the “Purchaser Designees”)

and provisions of the Stockholders Agreement; provided, 

 

 20

however, the Company shall have up to thirty
(30) days after the Closing to appoint the Purchaser Designees to the Board of
Directors in accordance with this Section 3.22; provided, further,
that in no event shall the number of Purchaser Designees be proportionately
less than the Investors’ aggregate equity interest of the Company.  The Company covenants and agrees that so long
as the Purchasers hold Preferred Shares, there shall be no greater than five
(5) members of the Board of Directors except as contemplated in this Section
3.22 without the prior written consent of the Purchasers.

Section 3.23           Confidentiality,
Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement.  The persons listed on Schedule 3.23

Confidentiality, Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement (the “Non-Competition
Agreement”) in the form substantially attached hereto as Exhibit H.

Section 3.24           Comprehensive
Operating Budget.  The Company
covenants and agrees that as soon as available and in any event within thirty
(30) days prior to the end of each fiscal year of the Company, the Company
shall deliver to the Purchasers a comprehensive operating budget forecasting
the Company’s financial position on a month-to-month basis for the upcoming
fiscal year.

Section 3.25           Board
Materials.  The Company covenants and
agrees to deliver to each Purchaser copies of all materials provided to members
of the Board of Directors contemporaneously with the delivery of materials to
such members of the Board of Directors, including, without limitation, all
financial materials used in preparation of the Company’s financial statements.

Section 3.26           Acquisitions.  The Company covenants and agrees that it

Investor Designees (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement).

Section 3.27           D&O
Insurance.  Promptly following the
Closing and as long as any Investor Designee (as defined in the Stockholders
Agreement) shall continue to serve as a director of the Company and thereafter
so long as the Investor Designee shall be subject to any possible Proceeding
(as defined in the Stockholders Agreement), the Company covenants and agrees
that it shall obtain and maintain in full force and effect directors’ and
officers’ liability insurance in the amount of $5,000,000 from established and
reputable insurers.

B Certificate of Designation.

ARTICLE V

Stock Certificate Legend

Section 5.1             Legend.  Each certificate representing the Preferred
Shares, the Warrant Preferred Shares and the Warrants, and, if appropriate,
securities issued upon conversion thereof, shall be stamped or otherwise
imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form (in addition to any
legend required by applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws):

THE
SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY
STATE.  THESE SECURITIES ARE RESTRICTED
SECURITIES AS DEFINED IN RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER THE ACT AND MAY NOT BE SOLD
OR OFFERED FOR SALE OR OTHERWISE DISTRIBUTED EXCEPT (A) IN CONJUNCTION WITH AN
EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
LAWS, (B) IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144 AND AN EXEMPTION UNDER APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAWS, OR (C) PURSUANT TO AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY
SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH REGISTRATION OR COMPLIANCE IS NOT
REQUIRED.”

The Company agrees to
reissue certificates representing any of the Conversion Shares, and the Warrant
Shares, without the legend set forth above if at such time, prior to making any
transfer of any such securities, such holder thereof shall give written notice
to the Company describing the manner and terms of such transfer and removal as
the Company may reasonably request.  Such
proposed transfer and removal will not be effected until: (a) either (i) the
Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
Company, to the effect that the registration of the Conversion Shares or the
Warrant Shares under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such
proposed transfer, (ii) a registration statement under the Securities Act
covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Company with the
Commission and has become effective under the Securities Act, (iii) the Company
has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such
registration and qualification under the Securities Act and state securities
laws are not required, or (iv) the holder provides the Company with reasonable
assurances that such security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities
Act; and (b) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that registration or
qualification under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state is not
required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii) compliance with
applicable state securities or 

 25
 

“blue sky” laws
has been effected or a valid exemption exists with respect thereto.  The Company will respond to any such notice
from a holder within five (5) business days. 
In the case of any proposed transfer under this Section 5.1, the Company
will use reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable state securities
or “blue sky” laws, but shall in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do
business in any state where it is not then qualified, (y) to take any action
that would subject it to tax or to the general service of process in any state
where it is not then subject, or (z) to comply with state securities or “blue
sky” laws of any state for which registration by coordination is unavailable to
the Company.  The restrictions on
transfer contained in this Section 5.1 shall be in addition to, and not by way
of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer contained in any other
section of this Agreement.  Whenever a
certificate representing the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares  is required to be issued to a Purchaser
without a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the
Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares (provided that a registration statement
under the Securities Act providing for the resale of the Warrant Shares and
Conversion Shares is then in effect), the Company shall cause its transfer
agent to electronically transmit the Conversion Shares or Warrant Shares to a
Purchaser by crediting the account of such Purchaser or such Purchaser’s Prime
Broker with the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) through its Deposit
Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system (to the extent not
inconsistent with any provisions of this Agreement).

ARTICLE VI

Indemnification

Section 6.1             Company
Indemnity.  The Company agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless the Purchasers (and their respective directors,
officers, managers, partners, members, shareholders, affiliates, agents,
successors and assigns) from and against any and all claims, causes of action,
losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages, and expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) and
fees incurred by the Purchasers as a result of any inaccuracy in or breach of
the representations, warranties or covenants made by the Company herein.

Section 6.2             Indemnification
Procedure.  Any party entitled to
indemnification under this Article VI (an “indemnified party”) will give
written notice to the indemnifying party of any matters giving rise to a claim
for indemnification; provided, that the failure of any party entitled to
indemnification hereunder to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve
the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Article VI except to the
extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to
give notice.  In case any action,
proceeding or claim is brought against an indemnified party in respect of which
indemnification is sought hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be entitled
to participate in and, unless in the reasonable judgment of the indemnified
party a conflict of interest between it and the indemnifying party may exist
with respect of such action, proceeding or claim, to assume the defense thereof
with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party.  In the event that the indemnifying party
advises an indemnified party that it will contest such a claim for
indemnification hereunder, or fails, within thirty (30) days of receipt of any
indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such person of its election to
defend, settle or compromise, at its sole cost and expense, any action,
proceeding or claim (or discontinues its defense at any time after it commences
such defense), then the indemnified party may, at its option, defend, settle or
otherwise compromise or pay such action or claim.  In any event, unless and until the
indemnifying party elects in writing to assume and does so assume the defense
of any such 

 26
 

claim, proceeding or action, the indemnified party’s costs and expenses
arising out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, claim
or proceeding shall be losses subject to indemnification hereunder.  The indemnified party shall cooperate fully
with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of
any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the
indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the indemnified
party which relates to such action or claim. 
The indemnifying party shall keep the indemnified party fully apprised
at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations
with respect thereto.  If the
indemnifying party elects to defend any such action or claim, then the indemnified
party shall be entitled to participate in such defense with counsel of its
choice at its sole cost and expense.  The
indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim
or proceeding effected without its prior written consent.  Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI
to the contrary, the indemnifying party shall not, without the indemnified
party’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to
entry of any judgment in respect thereof which imposes any future obligation on
the indemnified party or which does not include, as an unconditional term
thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the indemnified party
of a release from all liability in respect of such claim.  The indemnification required by this Article
VI shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course
of investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expense, loss,
damage or liability is incurred, so long as the indemnified party irrevocably
agrees to refund such moneys if it is ultimately determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction that such party was not entitled to
indemnification.  The indemnity
agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or
similar rights of the indemnified party against the indemnifying party or
others, and (b) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to
pursuant to the law.

(a)           The Company and the

(b)           Each of the Company

any such amendment or waiver is sought. 
No such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it applies to less
than all of the holders of the Preferred Shares 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 is also offered
to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents or holders of Preferred
Shares, as the case may be.

Section 7.9             Governing
Law.  This Agreement shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of
New York, without giving effect to any of the conflicts of law principles which
would result in the application of the substantive law of another
jurisdiction.  This Agreement shall not
be interpreted or construed with any presumption against the party causing this

Company and the Purchasers shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and
the Closings hereunder.

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

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

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

Section 7.14           Further
Assurances.  From and after the date
of this Agreement, upon the request of any Purchaser or the Company, each of
the Company and the Purchasers shall execute and deliver such instrument, documents

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference
is made to that certain Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement
(the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of July
3, 2007, by and among Nascent Wine Company, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and the purchasers named therein (collectively,
the “Purchasers”) pursuant to which the
Company is issuing to the Purchasers shares of its Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, (the “Preferred
Shares”) and warrants (the “Warrants”) to
purchase Preferred Shares (the “Warrant Preferred Shares”)
which are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value
$0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”).  This letter shall serve as our irrevocable
authorization and direction to you provided that you are the transfer agent of
the Company at such time) to issue shares of Common Stock upon conversion of
the Preferred Shares (the “Conversion Shares”)
and conversion of the Warrant Preferred Shares (the “Warrant
Shares”) to or upon the order of a Purchaser from time to time upon
(i) surrender to you of a properly completed and duly executed Conversion
Notice in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (ii) a copy of the certificates
(with the original certificates delivered to the Company) representing
Preferred Shares or Warrant Preferred Shares being converted (or an
indemnification undertaking with respect to such share certificates in the case
of their loss, theft or destruction), and (iii) delivery of a treasury order or
other appropriate order duly executed by a duly authorized officer of the
Company.  So long as you have previously
received (x) written confirmation from counsel to the Company that a
registration statement covering resales of the Conversion Shares or Warrant
Shares, as applicable, has been declared effective by the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and
no subsequent notice by the Company or its counsel of the suspension or
termination of its effectiveness and (y) a copy of such registration statement,
and if the Purchaser represents in writing that the Conversion Shares or the
Warrant Shares, as the case may be, were sold pursuant to the Registration
Statement, then certificates representing the Conversion Shares and the Warrant
Shares, as the case may be, shall not bear any legend restricting transfer of
the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares, as the case may be, thereby and
should not be subject to any stop-transfer restriction.  Provided, however, that if you have not
previously received those items and representations listed above, then the
certificates for the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares shall bear the
following legend:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE
NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”),
OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE.  

THESE
SECURITIES ARE RESTRICTED SECURITIES AS DEFINED IN RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER
THE ACT AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR SALE OR OTHERWISE DISTRIBUTED EXCEPT
(A) IN CONJUNCTION WITH AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT AND
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, (B) IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144 AND AN
EXEMPTION UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (C) PURSUANT TO AN OPINION
OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH REGISTRATION OR
COMPLIANCE IS NOT REQUIRED.”

and, provided
further, that the Company may from time to time notify you to place
stop-transfer restrictions on the certificates for the Conversion Shares and
the Warrant Shares in the event a registration statement covering the
Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares is subject to amendment for events
then current.

A
form of written confirmation from counsel to the Company that a registration
statement covering resales of the Conversion Shares and the Warrant Shares has
been declared effective by the SEC under the 1933 Act is attached hereto as
Exhibit III.

Please
be advised that the Purchasers are relying upon this letter as an inducement to
enter into the Purchase Agreement and, accordingly, each Purchaser is a third
party beneficiary to these instructions.

FORM OF NOTICE OF EFFECTIVENESS

OF REGISTRATION STATEMENT

[Name and address

Attn:  

Re:          Nascent Wine Company, Inc.  

Ladies and
Gentlemen:

We are counsel to
Nascent Wine Company, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”),
and have represented the Company in connection with that certain Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase
Agreement”), dated as of January    , 2007, by and
among the Company and the purchasers named therein (collectively, the “Purchasers”) pursuant to which the Company issued to the
Purchasers shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001
per share, (the “Preferred Shares”) and warrants
(the “Warrants”) to purchase Preferred Shares
(the “Warrant Preferred Shares”) which are
convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per
share (the “Common Stock”).  Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the
Company has also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the
Purchasers (the “Registration Rights Agreement”),
dated as of July 3, 2007, pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other
things, to register the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration
Rights Agreement), including the shares of the Company’s Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “1933 Act”).  In connection with the Company’s obligations
under the Registration Rights Agreement, on             ,
2007, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form SB-2 (File No. 333-            )
(the “Registration Statement”) with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) relating
to the resale of the Registrable Securities which names each of the present
Purchasers as a selling stockholder thereunder.

In connection with
the foregoing, we advise you that a member of the SEC’s staff has advised us by
telephone that the SEC has entered an order declaring the Registration
Statement effective under the 1933 Act at [ENTER TIME OF
EFFECTIVENESS] on [ENTER DATE OF
EFFECTIVENESS] and we have no knowledge, after telephonic inquiry of
a member of the SEC’s staff, that any stop order suspending its effectiveness
has been issued or that any proceedings for that purpose are pending before, or
threatened by, the SEC and accordingly, the Registrable Securities are
available for resale under the 1933 Act pursuant to the Registration Statement.

	
  

  	
  Very truly yours,

EXHIBIT G to the

SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT FOR

NASCENT WINE COMPANY, INC.

FORM OF OPINION OF COUNSEL

1.             The Company is a corporation duly
incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State
of Nevada and has the requisite corporate power to own, lease and operate its
properties and assets, and to carry on its business as presently conducted.  The Company is duly qualified as a foreign
corporation to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in
which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such
qualification necessary.

2.             The Company has the requisite
corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under
the Transaction Documents and to issue the Preferred Stock and the Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock.  The execution, delivery and performance of
each of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of
the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly and validly authorized by
all necessary corporate action and no further consent or authorization of the
Company or its Board of Directors or stockholders is required.  Each of the Transaction Documents have been
duly executed and delivered, and the Preferred Stock and the Warrants have been
duly executed, issued and delivered by the Company and each of the Transaction
Documents constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company
enforceable against the Company in accordance with its respective terms.  The Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
the Preferred Stock and the Warrant Preferred Stock are not subject to any preemptive
rights under the Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws.

3.             The Preferred Stock and the
Warrants have been duly authorized and, when delivered against payment in full
as provided in the Purchase Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.  The shares of Common
Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and Warrant Preferred
Stock have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance, and, when delivered
upon conversion or against payment in full as provided in the Certificate of
Designation will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

4.             The execution, delivery and
performance of and compliance with the terms of the Transaction Documents and
the issuance of the Preferred Stock, the Warrants and the Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and Warrant Preferred Stock do not (i)
violate any provision of the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, (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 material
agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease
agreement, instrument or obligation to which the Company is a party, (iii)
create or impose a lien, charge or encumbrance on any property of the Company
under any agreement or any commitment to which the Company is a party or by
which the Company is bound or by which any of its respective properties or assets
are bound, or (iv) result in a violation of any federal, state, local or
foreign statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction or decree
(including Federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable to the
Company or by which any property or asset of the Company is bound or affected,
except, in all cases other than violations pursuant to clauses (i) and (iv)
above, for such conflicts, default, terminations, amendments, acceleration,
cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate,
have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.             No consent, approval or
authorization of or designation, declaration or filing with any governmental
authority on the part of the Company is required under Federal, state or local
law, rule 

or regulation in
connection with the valid execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents,
or the offer, sale or issuance of the Preferred Stock, the Warrants or the
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock and Warrant
Preferred Stock other than the Certificate of Designation and the Registration
Statement.

6.             There is no action, suit, claim,
investigation or proceeding pending or threatened against the Company which
questions the validity of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby or any action taken or to be taken pursuant hereto or thereto.  There is no action, suit, claim,
investigation or proceeding pending, or to our knowledge, threatened, against
or involving the Company or any of its properties or assets and which, if
adversely determined, is reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.  There are no outstanding orders,
judgments, injunctions, awards or decrees of any court, arbitrator or
governmental or regulatory body against the Company or any officers or
directors of the Company in their capacities as such.

7.             The offer, issuance and sale of the
Preferred Stock and the offer, issuance and sale of the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement,
the Certificate of Designation, as applicable, are exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act.

8.             The Company is not, and as a result
of and immediately upon Closing will not be, an “investment company” or a
company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

CERTIFICATE
OF DESIGNATION OF THE RELATIVE RIGHTS AND PREFERENCES

OF THE

SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

OF

NASCENT WINE COMPANY, INC.

The
undersigned, the Chief Executive Officer of Nascent Wine Company, Inc., a
Nevada corporation (the “Company”), in accordance with the provisions of the
Nevada Revised Statutes, does hereby certify that, pursuant to the authority
conferred upon the Board of Directors by the Articles of Incorporation of the
Company, the following resolution creating a series of preferred stock,
designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, was duly adopted on June
29, 2007, as follows:

RESOLVED, that pursuant
to the authority expressly granted to and vested in the Board of Directors of
the Company by provisions of the Articles of Incorporation of the Company (the “Articles
of Incorporation”), there hereby is created out of the shares of the Company’s
preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company authorized in
Article IV of the Articles of Incorporation (the “Preferred Stock”), a series
of Preferred Stock of the Company, to be named “Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock,” consisting of Three Million Five Hundred Thousand (3,500,000) shares,
which series shall have the following designations, powers, preferences and
relative and other special rights and the following qualifications, limitations
and restrictions:

1.             ­Designation and Rank.  The designation of such series of the
Preferred Stock shall be the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value
$0.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”).  The maximum number of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock shall be Three Million Five Hundred Thousand (3,500,000)
shares.  The Series A Preferred Stock
shall rank senior to the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share
(the “Common Stock”), and to all other classes and series of equity securities
of the Company which by their terms do not rank senior to the Series A
Preferred Stock (“Junior Stock”).  The
Series A Preferred Stock shall be subordinate to and rank junior to all
indebtedness of the Company now or hereafter outstanding.  The Series A Preferred Stock shall be issued
only pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and upon the exercise of Series A
Warrants (the “Series A Warrants”) of the Company issued on July 3, 2007 (the “Original
Issue Date”).

2.             ­Dividends.

(a)           Payment of
Dividends.  Commencing on the date of
the initial issuance (the “Issuance Date”) of the Series A Preferred Stock and
continuing for a period of three (3) years following the Issuance Date, the
holders of record of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to
receive, out of any assets at the time legally available therefor and as
declared by the Board of Directors, dividends at the rate of fifteen percent  (15%) of the stated Liquidation Preference
Amount (as defined in Section 4 hereof) per share per annum (the “Dividend
Payment”), payable quarterly (unless converted by the holder pursuant to
Section 5(a) hereof prior to the date the applicable Dividend Payment is due)
on the first business day of March, June, September and December  of each year in additional shares of
Series A Preferred Stock.  

The number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be issued to the
holder shall be an amount equal to the quotient of (i) the Dividend Payment
divided by (ii) the Liquidation Preference Amount (as defined in Section 4
below) per share of the Series A Preferred Stock.  Any shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued
as a Dividend Payment shall have piggyback registration rights if not otherwise
registered pursuant to an effective registration statement.  In
the case of shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding for less than a full
quarter, dividends shall be pro rated based on the portion of each quarter
during which such shares are outstanding. 
Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock shall be cumulative, shall
accrue and be payable quarterly. 
Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock are prior and in preference to
any declaration or payment of any distribution (as defined below) on any
outstanding shares of Junior Stock.  Such
dividends shall accrue on each share of Series A Preferred Stock from day to
day whether or not earned or declared so that if such dividends with respect to
any previous dividend period at the rate provided for herein have not been paid
on, or declared and set apart for, all shares of Series A Preferred Stock at
the time outstanding, the deficiency shall be fully paid on, or declared and
set apart for, such shares on a pro rata basis with all other equity securities
of the Company ranking pari passu with the Series A Preferred Stock as to the
payment of dividends before any distribution shall be paid on, or declared and
set apart for Junior Stock.

(b)           So long as any
shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company shall not
declare, pay or set apart for payment any dividend or make any distribution on
any Junior Stock (other than dividends or distributions payable in additional
shares of Junior Stock), unless at the time of such dividend or distribution
the Company shall have paid all accrued and unpaid dividends on the outstanding
shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

(c)           In the event of a
dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company pursuant to Section 4
hereof, all accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock shall
be payable on the date of payment of the preferential amount to the holders of
Series A Preferred Stock. In the event of (i) a mandatory redemption pursuant
to Section 9 hereof or (ii) a redemption upon the occurrence of a Major
Transaction (as defined in Section 8(c) hereof) or a Triggering Event (as
defined in Section 8(d) hereof), all accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series
A Preferred Stock shall be payable on the date of such redemption.  In the event of a voluntary conversion
pursuant to Section 5(a) hereof, all accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series
A Preferred Stock being converted shall be payable on the Voluntary Conversion
Date (as defined in Section 5(b)(i) hereof).

(d)           For purposes hereof,
unless the context otherwise requires, “distribution” shall mean the transfer
of cash or property without consideration, whether by way of dividend or
otherwise, payable other than in shares of Common Stock or other equity
securities of the Company, or the purchase or redemption of shares of the
Company (other than redemptions set forth in Section 8 below or] repurchases of
Common Stock held by employees or consultants of the Company upon termination
of their employment or services pursuant to agreements providing for such
repurchase or upon the cashless exercise of options held by employees or
consultants) for cash or property.

(e)           The
Company shall not declare, pay or set aside any dividends on shares of any
other class or series of capital stock of the Company (other than dividends on
shares of 

 2
 

Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock in each case subject to
adjustment as provided in Section 4(e)(ii)) unless (in addition to the
obtaining of any consents required elsewhere in this Certificate of Designation
and the Articles of Incorporation) the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock
then outstanding shall first receive, or simultaneously receive, a dividend on
each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock in an amount at least equal
to (i) in the case of a dividend on Common Stock or any class or series that is
convertible into Common Stock, that dividend per share of Series A Preferred
Stock as would equal the product of (A) the dividend payable on each share of
such class or series determined, if applicable, as if all shares of such class
or series had been converted into Common Stock and (B) the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of a share of Series A Preferred Stock,
in each case calculated on the record date for determination of holders
entitled to receive such dividend (the “Record Date”) or (ii) in the case of a
dividend on any class or series that is not convertible into Common Stock, at a
rate per share of Series A Preferred Stock determined by (A) dividing the amount
of the dividend payable on each share of such class or series of capital stock
by the original issuance price of such class or series of capital stock
(subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock
split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to such class or series) and (B)
multiplying such fraction by an amount equal to the Series A Original Issue
Price (as defined below); provided that, if the Corporation declares, pays or
sets aside, on the same date, a dividend on shares of more than one class or
series of capital stock of the Corporation, the dividend payable to the holders
of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 2 shall be
calculated based upon the dividend on the class or series of capital stock that
would result in the highest Series A Preferred Stock dividend.  For purposes hereof, the term “dividends”
includes any pro rata distribution by the Company, out of funds of the Company
legally available therefore, of cash, property, securities (including, but not
limited to rights, warrants or options) or other property or assets to the
holders of Common Stock, whether or not paid out of capital, surplus or
earnings.  The “Series A Original Issue Price” shall mean $8.00 per share,
subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock
split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to the Series
A Preferred Stock.

3.             ­Voting Rights.

(a)           ­Class Voting
Rights.  The Series A Preferred Stock
shall have the following class voting rights (in addition to the voting rights
set forth in Section 3(b) hereof).  So
long as any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the
Company shall not, without the affirmative vote or consent of the holders of at
least seventy-five percent (75%) of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock
outstanding at the time, given in person or by proxy, either in writing or at a
meeting, in which the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock vote separately
as a class: (i) authorize, create, issue or increase the authorized or issued
amount of any class or series of stock, including but not limited to the
issuance of any more shares of Preferred Stock, ranking pari passu or senior to
the Series A Preferred Stock, with respect to the distribution of assets on
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the payment of dividends
and redemption rights; (ii) amend, alter, change or repeal (or cause to be
amended, altered, changed or repealed) the provisions of the Series A Preferred
Stock, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, so as to adversely affect
any right, preference, privilege or voting power of the Series A Preferred
Stock; (iii) declare,
pay dividends or make any other distribution 

 3
 

to
holders of shares of capital stock or redeem or repurchase or otherwise acquire
any shares of capital stock, other than as required by law or by agreements in
existence on the date hereof with employees or consultants of the Company
requiring or permitting the redemption or repurchase of shares of capital stock;
(iv) amend, alter, change or repeal (or cause to be amended, altered, changed
or repealed) the Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Company, whether
by merger, consolidation or otherwise, so as to adversely affect any right,
preference, privilege or voting power of the Series A Preferred Stock; (v)
effect any distribution with respect to Junior Stock other than as permitted
hereby; (vi) reclassify the Company’s outstanding securities; (vii) voluntarily
file for bankruptcy, liquidate the Company’s assets or make an assignment for
the benefit of the Company’s creditors or wind-up the affairs of the Company;
(viii) materially change the nature of the Company’s business; (ix) increase the number of shares to be reserved
for issuance under any compensation plan of the Company; (x) make any loan
or enter into any agreements, arrangements or other continuing transactions
between (a) the Company or any subsidiary on the one hand, and (b) on the other
hand, any officer, employee, consultant or director of the Company, or any of
its subsidiaries, or any person owning any capital stock of the Company or any
subsidiary or any member of the immediate family of such officer, employee,
consultant, director or stockholder or any corporation or other entity
controlled by such officer, employee, consultant, director or stockholder, or a
member of the immediate family of such officer, employee, consultant, director
or stockholder; incur, assume or guarantee any indebtedness for borrowed money;
(xi) create, or authorize the creation
of, or issue or purchase, or authorize the issuance or purchase of, any equity
or debt securities; (xii) enter into any merger, reorganization,
consolidation or sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company with
another corporation or other entity or other acquisition of the Company; or
(xiii) create any subsidiary of the
Company; and (xiv) alter or change in any way the compensation of the Company’s
senior management.

(b)           ­General Voting
Rights.  The holder of each share of
Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to the number of votes equal to the
number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of Series A Preferred
Stock could be converted for purposes of determining the shares entitled to
vote at any regular, annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company,
and shall have voting rights and powers equal to the voting rights and powers
of the Common Stock (except as otherwise expressly provided herein or as
required by law, voting together with the Common Stock as a single class) and
shall be entitled to notice of any stockholders’ meeting in accordance with the
bylaws of the Company.  Fractional votes
shall not, however, be permitted and any fractional voting rights resulting
from the above formula (after aggregating all shares into which shares of
Series A Preferred Stock held by each holder could be converted) shall be
rounded to the nearest whole number (with one-half being rounded upward).

4.             ­Liquidation Preference.

(a)           In
the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the
Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to receive, out of the
assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders, an amount
equal to the Series A Original Price per share (the “Liquidation Preference
Amount”) of the Series A Preferred Stock plus any accrued and unpaid dividends
before any payment shall be made or any assets distributed to the holders of
the Common Stock or any other Junior Stock. 
If the assets of the Company are not sufficient to pay 

 4
 

in full the Liquidation Preference Amount payable to the holders of
outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock and any series of Preferred
Stock or any other class of stock ranking pari passu, as to rights on
liquidation, dissolution or winding up, with the Series A Preferred Stock, then
all of said assets will be distributed among the holders of the Series A
Preferred Stock and the other classes of stock ranking pari passu with the
Series A Preferred Stock, if any, ratably in accordance with the respective
amounts that would be payable on such shares if all amounts payable thereon
were paid in full.  The liquidation payment
with respect to each outstanding fractional share of Series A Preferred Stock
shall be equal to a ratably proportionate amount of the liquidation payment
with respect to each outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock.  All payments for which this Section 4(a)
provides shall be in cash, property (valued at its fair market value as
determined by an independent appraiser reasonably acceptable to the holders of
a majority of the Series A Preferred Stock) or a combination thereof; provided,
however, that no cash shall be paid to holders of Junior Stock unless
each holder of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock has been paid
in cash the full Liquidation Preference Amount to which such holder is entitled
as provided herein.  After payment of the
full Liquidation Preference Amount to which each holder is entitled, such
holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock will not be entitled to any
further participation as such in any distribution of the assets of the Company.

(b)           A
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation or
corporations, or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the
Company, or the effectuation by the Company of a transaction or series of
related transactions in which more than 50% of the voting shares of the Company
is disposed of or conveyed, shall not be deemed to be a liquidation,
dissolution, or winding up within the meaning of this Section 4.  In the event of the merger or consolidation
of the Company with or into another corporation, the Series A Preferred Stock
shall maintain its designations, relative powers, preferences and relative and
other special rights provided for herein and no merger shall result which is
inconsistent therewith.

(c)           Written
notice of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up
of the affairs of the Company, stating a payment date and the place where the
distributable amounts shall be payable, shall be given by mail, postage
prepaid, no less than forty-five (45) days prior to the payment date stated
therein, to the holders of record of the Series A Preferred Stock at their
respective addresses as the same shall appear on the books of the Company.

5.             ­Conversion. 
The holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the following
conversion rights (the “Conversion Rights”):

(a)           ­Right to Convert.  At any time and from time to time on or after
the Issuance Date, the holder of any such shares of Series A Preferred Stock
may, at such holder’s option and without the payment of additional consideration
by the holder thereof elect to convert (a “Conversion”) all or any portion of
the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such person into a number of
fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of
(i) the Liquidation Preference Amount of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock
being converted by (ii) the Conversion Price (as defined in Section 5(d) below)
then in effect as of the date of the 

 5
 

delivery by such holder of its notice of election to convert.  In the event of a notice of redemption of any
shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 8 hereof, the Conversion
Rights of the shares designated for redemption shall terminate at the close of
business on the last full day preceding the date fixed for redemption, unless
the redemption price is not paid on such redemption date, in which case the
Conversion Rights for such shares shall continue until such price is paid in
full.  In the event of a liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Company, the Conversion Rights shall terminate
at the close of business on the last full day preceding the date fixed for the
payment of any such amounts distributable on such event to the holders of
Series A Preferred Stock.  In the event
of such a redemption or liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the Company
shall provide to each holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock notice of
such redemption or liquidation, dissolution or winding up, which notice shall
(i) be sent at least fifteen (15) days prior to the termination of the
Conversion Rights (or, if the Company obtains lesser notice thereof, then as
promptly as possible after the date that it has obtained notice thereof) and
(ii) state the amount per share of Series A Preferred Stock that will be paid
or distributed on such redemption or liquidation, dissolution or winding up, as
the case may be.

(b)           ­Mechanics of
Conversion.  The Conversion of Series
A Preferred Stock shall be conducted in the following manner:

(i)            ­Holder’s
Delivery Requirements.  To convert Series
A Preferred Stock into full shares of Common Stock on any date (the “Conversion
Date”), the holder thereof shall (A) transmit by facsimile (or otherwise
deliver), for receipt on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York time on such date, a
copy of a fully executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
I (the “Conversion Notice”), to the Company at (619) 661-9735, Attention: Sandro
Piancone or to The Law Offices of Gary Agron at (303) 770-7257, Attention: Gary
Agron, and (B) surrender to a common carrier for delivery to the Company as
soon as practicable following such Conversion Date the original certificates
representing the shares of Series A Preferred Stock being converted (or an
indemnification undertaking with respect to such shares in the case of their
loss, theft or destruction) (the “Preferred Stock Certificates”) and the
originally executed Conversion Notice.

(ii)           ­Company’s
Response.  Upon receipt by the
Company of a facsimile copy of a Conversion Notice, the Company shall immediately
send, via facsimile, a confirmation of receipt of such Conversion Notice to
such holder followed by a mailing by certified or registered mail, postage
prepaid, return-receipt requested.  Upon
receipt by the Company of a copy of the fully executed Conversion Notice, the
Company or its designated transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), as applicable,
shall, within three (3) business days following the date of receipt by the
Company of the fully executed Conversion Notice, issue and deliver to the
Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) account on the Holder’s behalf via the Deposit
Withdrawal Agent Commission System (“DWAC”) as specified in the Conversion
Notice, registered in the name of the holder or its designee, for the number of
shares of Common Stock to which the holder shall be entitled.  Notwithstanding the foregoing to the
contrary, the Company or its Transfer Agent shall only be obligated to issue
and deliver the shares to the DTC on a holder’s behalf via DWAC if a
registration statement providing for the resale of the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock is effective.  If the number of shares of Preferred Stock
represented by the Preferred Stock Certificate(s) submitted 

 6
 

for conversion is greater than the number of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock being converted, then the Company shall, as soon as practicable
and in no event later than three (3) business days after receipt of the
Preferred Stock Certificate(s) and at the Company’s expense, issue and deliver
to the holder a new Preferred Stock Certificate representing the number of
shares of Series A Preferred Stock not converted.

(iii)          ­Dispute
Resolution.  In the case of a dispute
as to the arithmetic calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock to be
issued upon conversion, the Company shall cause its Transfer Agent to promptly
issue to the holder the number of shares of Common Stock that is not disputed
and shall submit the arithmetic calculations to the holder via facsimile as
soon as possible, but in no event later than two (2) business days after
receipt of such holder’s Conversion Notice. 
If such holder and the Company are unable to agree upon the arithmetic
calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such
conversion within one (1) business day of such disputed arithmetic calculation
being submitted to the holder, then the Company shall within one (1) business
day submit via facsimile the disputed arithmetic calculation of the number of
shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such conversion to the Company’s
independent, outside accountant.  The
Company shall cause the accountant to perform the calculations and notify the
Company and the holder of the results no later than seventy-two (72) hours from
the time it receives the disputed calculations. 
Such accountant’s calculation shall be binding upon all parties absent
manifest error.  The reasonable expenses
of such accountant in making such determination shall be paid by the Company,
in the event the holder’s calculation was correct, or by the holder, in the
event the Company’s calculation was correct, or equally by the Company and the
holder in the event that neither the Company’s or the holder’s calculation was
correct.  The period of time in which the
Company is required to effect conversions or redemptions under this Certificate
of Designation shall be tolled with respect to the subject conversion or
redemption pending resolution of any dispute by the Company made in good faith
and in accordance with this Section 5(b)(iii).

(iv)          ­Record
Holder.  The person or persons
entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of
the Series A Preferred Stock shall be treated for all purposes as the record
holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on the Conversion Date.

(v)           ­Company’s
Failure to Timely Convert.  If within
three (3) business days of the Company’s receipt of an executed copy of the
Conversion Notice (so long as the applicable Preferred Stock Certificates and
original Conversion Notice are received by the Company on or before such third
business day) (the “Delivery Date”) the Transfer Agent shall fail to issue and
deliver to a holder the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder
is entitled upon such holder’s conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock or to
issue a new Preferred Stock Certificate representing the number of shares of
Series A Preferred Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section
5(b)(ii) (a “Conversion Failure”), in addition to all other available remedies
which such holder may pursue hereunder and under the Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) among the Company
and the initial holders of the Series A Preferred Stock (including, without
limitation, indemnification pursuant to Section 6 thereof), the Company shall
pay additional damages to such holder on each business day after such third (3rd) business day that such
conversion is not 

 7
 

timely effected in an amount equal to 0.5% of the product of (A) the
sum of the number of shares of Common Stock not issued to the holder on a
timely basis pursuant to Section 5(b)(ii) and to which such holder is entitled
and, in the event the Company has failed to deliver a Preferred Stock
Certificate to the holder on a timely basis pursuant to Section 5(b)(ii), the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of
Series A Preferred Stock represented by such Preferred Stock Certificate, as of
the last possible date which the Company could have issued such Preferred Stock
Certificate to such holder without violating Section 5(b)(ii) and (B) the
Closing Bid Price (as defined below) of the Common Stock on the last possible
date which the Company could have issued such Common Stock and such Preferred
Stock Certificate, as the case may be, to such holder without violating Section
5(b)(ii).  If the Company fails to pay
the additional damages set forth in this Section 5(b)(v) within five (5)
business days of the date incurred, then such payment shall bear interest at
the rate of 2.0% per month (pro rated for partial months) until such payments
are made.  The term “Closing Bid Price”
shall mean, for any security as of any date, the last closing bid price of such
security on the OTC Bulletin Board or other quotation venue or principal
exchange on which such security is traded as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no
closing bid price is reported for such security by Bloomberg, the last closing
trade price of such security as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no last closing
trade price is reported for such security by Bloomberg, the average of the bid
prices of any market makers for such security as reported in the “pink sheets”
by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. 
If the Closing Bid Price cannot be calculated for such security on such
date on any of the foregoing bases, the Closing Bid Price of such security on
such date shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Company
and the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred
Stock.

(vi)          Buy-In Rights.  In addition to any other rights available to
the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, if the Company fails to cause its
Transfer Agent to transmit to the holder a certificate or certificates
representing the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series
A Preferred Stock on or before the Delivery Date, and if after such date the
holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or
otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the
holder of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Series A
Preferred Stock which the holder anticipated receiving upon such conversion (a “Buy-In”),
then the Company shall (1) pay in cash to the holder the amount by which (x) the
holder’s total purchase price (including, without limitation, brokerage
commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y)
the amount obtained by multiplying (A) the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock that the Company was
required to deliver to the holder in connection with the conversion at issue
times (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase
obligation was executed, and (2) at the option of the holder, either reinstate
the shares of Series A Preferred Stock and equivalent number of shares of
Common Stock for which such conversion was not honored or deliver to the holder
the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the
Company timely complied with its conversion and delivery obligations
hereunder.  For example, if the holder
purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a
Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of shares of Common Stock with
an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000,
under clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be
required to pay to the holder $1,000. The holder shall provide the Company
written 

 8
 

notice indicating the amounts payable to the holder in respect of the
Buy-In, together with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably
requested by the Company.  Nothing herein
shall limit a holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it
hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of
specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s
failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon
conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock as required pursuant to the terms
hereof.

(c)           Intentionally
Omitted.

(d)           ­Conversion Price.

(i)            The
term “Conversion Price” shall mean $0.40, subject to adjustment under Section
5(e) hereof.  Notwithstanding any
adjustment hereunder, at no time shall the Conversion Price be greater than
$0.40 per share except if it is adjusted pursuant to Section 5(e)(i).

(ii)           Notwithstanding
the foregoing to the contrary, if during any period (a “Black-out Period”),
a holder of Series A Preferred Stock is unable to trade any Common Stock issued
or issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock immediately due to
the postponement of filing or delay or suspension of effectiveness of the
Registration Statement or because the Company has otherwise informed such holder
of Series A Preferred Stock that an existing prospectus cannot be used at that
time in the sale or transfer of such Common Stock (provided that such
postponement, delay, suspension or fact that the prospectus cannot be used is
not due to factors solely within the control of the holder of Series A
Preferred Stock or due to the Company exercising its rights under Section 3(n)
of the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined in the Purchase Agreement)),
such holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the option but not the
obligation on any Conversion Date within ten (10) trading days following the
expiration of the Black-out Period of using the Conversion Price applicable on
such Conversion Date or any Conversion Price selected by such holder of Series A
Preferred Stock that would have been applicable had such Conversion Date been
at any earlier time during the Black-out Period or within the ten (10) trading
days thereafter.

(e)           ­Adjustments of
Conversion Price.

(i)            ­Adjustments
for Stock Splits and Combinations. 
If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original
Issue Date, effect a stock split of the outstanding Common Stock, the
Conversion Price shall be proportionately decreased.  If the Company shall at any time or from time
to time after the Original Issue Date, combine the outstanding shares of Common
Stock, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately increased.  Any adjustments under this Section 5(e)(i)
shall be effective at the close of business on the date the stock split or
combination becomes effective.

(ii)           ­Adjustments
for Certain Dividends and Distributions. 
If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original
Issue Date, make or issue or set a record date for the determination of holders
of Common Stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in
shares of Common Stock, then, and in each event, the Conversion 

 9
 

Price shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the
event such record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on
such record date, by multiplying the Conversion Price then in effect by a
fraction:

(1)           the
numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of
business on such record date; and

(2)           the
denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of
business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
in payment of such dividend or distribution.

(iii)          ­Adjustment
for Other Dividends and Distributions. 
If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original
Issue Date, make or issue or set a record date for the determination of holders
of Common Stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in
securities of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, then, and in each
event, an appropriate revision to the applicable Conversion Price shall be made
and provision shall be made (by adjustments of the Conversion Price or
otherwise) so that the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall receive upon
conversions thereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock receivable
thereon, the number of securities of the Company which they would have received
had their Series A Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock on the date
of such event and had thereafter, during the period from the date of such event
to and including the Conversion Date, retained such securities (together with
any distributions payable thereon during such period), giving application to
all adjustments called for during such period under this Section 5(e)(iii) with
respect to the rights of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock; provided,
however, that if such record date shall have been fixed and such
dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the
date fixed therefor, the Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this
paragraph as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions;
and provided  further, however, that no such adjustment shall be
made if the holders of Series A Preferred Stock simultaneously receive
(i) a dividend or other distribution of shares of Common Stock in a number
equal to the number of shares of Common Stock as they would have received if
all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock had been converted into
Common Stock on the date of such event or (ii) a dividend or other
distribution of shares of Series A Preferred Stock which are convertible, as of
the date of such event, into such number of shares of Common Stock as is equal
to the number of additional shares of Common Stock being issued with respect to
each share of Common Stock in such dividend or distribution.

(iv)          ­Adjustments
for Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution.  If the Common Stock issuable upon conversion
of the Series A Preferred Stock at any time or from time to time after the
Original Issue Date shall be changed to the same or different number of shares
of any class or classes of stock, whether by reclassification, exchange,
substitution or otherwise (other than by way of a stock split or combination of
shares or stock dividends provided for in Sections 5(e)(i), (ii) and (iii), or
a reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets provided for in
Section 5(e)(v)), then, and in each event, an appropriate revision to the
Conversion Price shall be made and provisions shall be made (by adjustments of
the Conversion

 

 10

Price or otherwise) so that the holder of each share of Series A
Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such share of Series
A Preferred Stock into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other
securities receivable upon reclassification, exchange, substitution or other
change, by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such
share of Series A Preferred Stock might have been converted immediately prior
to such reclassification, exchange, substitution or other change, all subject
to further adjustment as provided herein.

(v)           ­Adjustments
for Reorganization, Merger, Consolidation or Sales of  Assets.  If at any time or from time to time after the
Original Issue Date there shall be a capital reorganization of the Company (other
than by way of a stock split or combination of shares or stock dividends or
distributions provided for in Section 5(e)(i), (ii) and (iii), or a
reclassification, exchange or substitution of shares provided for in Section
5(e)(iv)), or a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another
corporation where the holders of outstanding voting securities prior to such
merger or consolidation do not own over 50% of the outstanding voting
securities of the merged or consolidated entity, immediately after such merger
or consolidation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s
properties or assets to any other person (an “Organic Change”), then as a part
of such Organic Change an appropriate revision to the Conversion Price shall be
made if necessary and provision shall be made if necessary (by adjustments of
the Conversion Price or otherwise) so that the holder of each share of Series A
Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such share of Series
A Preferred Stock into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other
securities or property of the Company or any successor corporation resulting
from Organic Change.  In any such case,
appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of
this Section 5(e)(v) with respect to the rights of the holders of the Series A
Preferred Stock after the Organic Change to the end that the provisions of this
Section 5(e)(v) (including any adjustment in the Conversion Price then in
effect and the number of shares of stock or other securities deliverable upon
conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock) shall be applied after that event
in as nearly an equivalent manner as may be practicable.

(vi)          Adjustments
for Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock.  In the event the Company, shall, at any time
from time to time, issue or sell any additional shares of Common Stock (except
as provided in the foregoing subsections (i) through (v) of this Section 5(e)
with respect to Common Stock Equivalents (hereafter defined) granted or issued
prior to the Original Issue Date) or pursuant to subsection (viii) below) (“Additional
Shares of Common Stock”), without consideration or at a consideration per share
less than the Conversion Price then in effect, then upon and concurrently with
each such issuance or deemed issuance the Conversion Price shall be reduced to
the consideration per share received by the Company for such issuance or deemed
issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock.

(vii)         Issuance
of Common Stock Equivalents. The provisions of this Section 5(e)(vii) shall
apply if (a) the Company, at any time after the Original Issue Date, shall
issue any securities convertible into or exchangeable for, directly or
indirectly, Common Stock (“Convertible Securities”), other than the Series A
Preferred Stock, or (b) any rights or warrants or options to purchase any such
Common Stock or Convertible Securities (collectively, the “Common Stock
Equivalents”) shall be issued or sold. 
If the price per share for which Additional Shares of Common Stock may
be issuable pursuant to any such Common Stock 

 11
 

Equivalent shall be less than the applicable Conversion Price then in
effect, or if, after any such issuance of Common Stock Equivalents, the price
per share for which Additional Shares of Common Stock may be issuable
thereafter is amended or adjusted, and such price as so amended shall be less
than the applicable Conversion Price in effect at the time of such amendment or
adjustment, then the applicable Conversion Price upon each such issuance or
amendment shall be adjusted as provided in the first sentence of subsection
(vi) of this Section 5(e).  No adjustment
shall be made to the Conversion Price upon the issuance of Common Stock
pursuant to the exercise, conversion or exchange of any Convertible Security or
Common Stock Equivalent where an adjustment to the Conversion Price was made as
a result of the issuance or purchase of any Convertible Security or Common
Stock Equivalent.

(viii)        ­Consideration
for Stock.  In case any shares of
Common Stock or Convertible Securities other than the Series A Preferred Stock,
or any rights or warrants or options to purchase any such Common Stock or
Convertible Securities, shall be issued or sold:

(1)           in
connection with any merger or consolidation in which the Company is the
surviving corporation (other than any consolidation or merger in which the
previously outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be changed
to or exchanged for the stock or other securities of another corporation), the
amount of consideration therefore shall be, deemed to be the fair value, as
determined reasonably and in good faith by the Board of Directors of the
Company, of such portion of the assets and business of the nonsurviving
corporation as such Board may determine to be attributable to such shares of
Common Stock, Convertible Securities, rights or warrants or options, as the
case may be; or

(2)           in
the event of any consolidation or merger of the Company in which the Company is
not the surviving corporation or in which the previously outstanding shares of
Common Stock of the Company shall be changed into or exchanged for the stock or
other securities of another corporation, or in the event of any sale of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company for stock or other securities of
any corporation, the Company shall be deemed to have issued a number of shares
of its Common Stock for stock or securities or other property of the other
corporation computed on the basis of the actual exchange ratio on which the transaction
was predicated, and for a consideration equal to the fair market value on the
date of such transaction of all such stock or securities or other property of
the other corporation.  If any such
calculation results in adjustment of the applicable Conversion Price, or the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A
Preferred Stock, the determination of the applicable Conversion Price or the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A
Preferred Stock immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or sale, shall
be made after giving effect to such adjustment of the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock.  In the event any consideration received by
the Company for any securities consists of property other than cash, the fair
market value thereof at the time of issuance or as otherwise applicable shall
be as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.  In the event Common Stock is issued with
other shares or securities or other assets of the Company for consideration
which covers both, the consideration computed as provided in this Section
(5)(e)(viii) shall be allocated among such securities and assets as determined
in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.

 12
 

(ix)           ­Record
Date.  In case the Company shall take
record of the holders of its Common Stock or any other Preferred Stock for the
purpose of entitling them to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock or Convertible
Securities, then the date of the issue or sale of the shares of Common Stock
shall be deemed to be such record date.

(x)            Certain
Issues Excepted.  Anything herein to
the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be required to make any
adjustment to the Conversion Price upon (i) securities issued (other than for
cash) in connection with a merger, acquisition, or consolidation, (ii)
securities issued pursuant to the conversion or exercise of convertible or
exercisable securities issued or outstanding on or prior to the date of the
Purchase Agreement or issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (so long as the
conversion or exercise price in such securities are not amended to lower such
price and/or adversely affect the holders), (iii) securities issued in
connection with bona fide strategic license agreements or other partnering
arrangements so long as such issuances are not for the purpose of raising
capital, (iv) Common Stock issued or the issuance or grants of options to
purchase Common Stock pursuant to the Company’s stock option plans and employee
stock purchase plans outstanding as they exist on the date of the Purchase
Agreement so long as approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, and (v) any
warrants issued to the placement agent and its designees for the transactions
contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

(f)            ­No Impairment.  The Company shall not, by amendment of its
Articles of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets,
consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other
voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any
of the terms to be observed or performed under this Section 5 by the Company,
but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the
provisions of this Section 5 and in the taking of all such action as may be
necessary or appropriate in order to protect the Conversion Rights of the
holders of the Series A Preferred Stock against impairment.  In the event a holder shall elect to convert
any shares of Series A Preferred Stock as provided herein, the Company cannot
refuse conversion based on any claim that such holder or any one associated or
affiliated with such holder has been engaged in any violation of law, unless
(i) an order from the Securities and Exchange Commission prohibiting such
conversion or (ii) an injunction from a court, on notice, restraining and/or
adjoining conversion of all or of said shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall
have been issued and the Company posts a surety bond for the benefit of such
holder in an amount equal to 120% of the Liquidation Preference Amount of the
Series A Preferred Stock such holder has elected to convert, which bond shall
remain in effect until the completion of arbitration/litigation of the dispute
and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such holder in the event it
obtains judgment.

(g)           ­Certificates as
to Adjustments.  Upon occurrence of
each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price or number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant
to this Section 5, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such
adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to
each holder of such Series A Preferred Stock a certificate setting forth such
adjustment and readjustment, showing in detail the facts upon which such
adjustment or readjustment is based.  The
Company shall, upon written request of the holder of such affected 

 13
 

Series A Preferred Stock, at any time, furnish or cause to be furnished
to such holder a like certificate setting forth such adjustments and
readjustments, the Conversion Price in effect at the time, and the number of
shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property
which at the time would be received upon the conversion of a share of such
Series A Preferred Stock. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to
deliver a certificate unless such certificate would reflect an increase or
decrease of at least one percent of such adjusted amount.

(h)           ­Issue Taxes.  The Company shall pay any and all issue and
other taxes, excluding federal, state or local income taxes, that may be
payable in respect of any issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock on
conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant hereto; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be obligated to pay any transfer
taxes resulting from any transfer requested by any holder in connection with
any such conversion.

(i)            ­Notices.  All notices and other communications
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally
or by facsimile or three (3) business days following being mailed by certified
or registered mail, postage prepaid, return-receipt requested, addressed to the
holder of record at its address appearing on the books of the Company.  The Company will give written notice to each
holder of Series A Preferred Stock at least twenty (20) days prior to the date
on which the Company closes its books or takes a record (I) with respect to any
dividend or distribution upon the Common Stock, (II) with respect to any pro
rata subscription offer to holders of Common Stock or (III) for determining
rights to vote with respect to any Organic Change, dissolution, liquidation or
winding-up and in no event shall such notice be provided to such holder prior
to such information being made known to the public.  The Company will also give written notice to
each holder of Series A Preferred Stock at least twenty (20) days prior to the
date on which any Organic Change, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up will
take place and in no event shall such notice be provided to such holder prior
to such information being made known to the public.

(j)            ­Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be
issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock.  In lieu of any fractional shares to which the
holder would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall round the number of
shares to be issued upon conversion up to the nearest whole number of shares.

(k)           ­Reservation
of Common Stock.  The Company shall,
so long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, reserve and
keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the
purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, such
number of shares of Common Stock equal to at least one hundred twenty percent
(120%) of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to
time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all of the shares of Series A
Preferred Stock then outstanding.  The
initial number of shares of Common Stock reserved for conversions of the Series
A Preferred Stock and any increase in the number of shares so reserved shall be
allocated pro rata among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock based on
the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by each holder of record
at the time of issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock or increase in the
number of reserved shares, as the case may be. 
In the event a 

 14
 

holder shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such holder’s shares of
Series A Preferred Stock, each transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion
of the number of reserved shares of Common Stock reserved for such
transferor.    Any shares of Common Stock
reserved and which remain allocated to any person or entity which does not hold
any shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be allocated to the remaining
holders of Series A Preferred Stock, pro rata based on the number of shares of
Series A Preferred Stock then held by such holder.

(l)            ­Retirement of
Series A Preferred Stock.  Conversion
of Series A Preferred Stock shall be deemed to have been effected on the
Conversion Date.  Upon conversion of only
a portion of the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock represented by a
certificate surrendered for conversion, the Company shall issue and deliver to
such holder at the expense of the Company, a new certificate covering the
number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock representing the unconverted
portion of the certificate so surrendered as required by Section 5(b)(ii).

(m)          ­Regulatory
Compliance.  If any shares of Common
Stock to be reserved for the purpose of conversion of Series A Preferred Stock
require registration or listing with or approval of any governmental authority,
stock exchange or other regulatory body under any federal or state law or
regulation or otherwise before such shares may be validly issued or delivered
upon conversion, the Company shall, at its sole cost and expense, in good faith
and as expeditiously as possible, endeavor to secure such registration, listing
or approval, as the case may be.

6.             ­No Preemptive Rights.  Except as provided in Section 5 hereof and in
the Transaction Documents (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), no holder of
the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to rights to subscribe for,
purchase or receive any part of any new or additional shares of any class,
whether now or hereinafter authorized, or of bonds or debentures, or other
evidences of indebtedness convertible into or exchangeable for shares of any
class, but all such new or additional shares of any class, or any bond,
debentures or other evidences of indebtedness convertible into or exchangeable
for shares, may be issued and disposed of by the Board of Directors on such
terms and for such consideration (to the extent permitted by law), and to such
person or persons as the Board of Directors in their absolute discretion may
deem advisable.

7.             Intentionally Omitted.

8.             ­Redemption.

(a)           ­Redemption
Option Upon Major Transaction.  In
addition to all other rights of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock
contained herein, simultaneous with the occurrence of a Major Transaction (as
defined below), each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right,
at such holder’s option, to require the Company to redeem all or a portion of
such holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a price per share of Series
A Preferred Stock equal to one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Liquidation
Preference Amount, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends and liquidated damages
(the “Major Transaction Redemption Price”); provided that the Company shall
have the sole option to pay the Major Transaction 

 15
 

Redemption Price in cash or shares of Common Stock.  If the Company elects to pay the Major
Transaction Redemption Price in shares of Common Stock, the price per share
shall be based upon the Conversion Price  then
in effect on the day preceding the date of delivery of the Notice of Redemption
at Option of Buyer Upon Major Transaction (as hereafter defined) and the holder
of such shares of Common Stock shall have demand registration rights with
respect to such shares.

(b)           ­ Redemption
Option Upon Triggering Event.  In addition
to all other rights of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock contained
herein, after a Triggering Event (as defined below), each holder of Series A
Preferred Stock shall have the right, at such holder’s option, to require the
Company to redeem all or a portion of such holder’s shares of Series A
Preferred Stock at a price per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to one
hundred twenty percent (120%) of the Liquidation Preference Amount, plus any
accrued but unpaid dividends and liquidated damages the “Triggering Event
Redemption Price” and, collectively with the “Major Transaction Redemption
Price,” the “Redemption Price”); provided that with respect to the Triggering
Events described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (vii) of Section 8(d), the
Company shall have the sole option to pay the Triggering Event Redemption Price
in cash or shares of Common Stock; and provided, further, that with respect to
the Triggering Event described in clauses (iv), (v) and (vi) of Section 8(d),
the Company shall pay the Triggering Event Redemption Price in cash.  If the Company elects to pay the Triggering
Event Redemption Price in shares of Common Stock in accordance with this
Section 8(b), the price per share shall be based upon the Conversion Price  then in effect on the day preceding the
date of delivery of the Notice of Redemption at Option of Buyer Upon Triggering
Event and the holder of such shares of Common Stock shall have demand
registration rights with respect to such shares.

(c)           “Major
Transaction”.  A “Major Transaction”
shall be deemed to have occurred at such time as any of the following events:

(i)            the
consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Company with or into
another Person (other than (A) pursuant to a migratory merger effected solely
for the purpose of changing the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company or
(B) a consolidation, merger or other business combination in which holders of
the Company’s voting power immediately prior to the transaction continue after
the transaction to hold, directly or indirectly, the voting power of the
surviving entity or entities necessary to elect a majority of the members of
the board of directors (or their equivalent if other than a corporation) of
such entity or entities).

(ii)           the
sale or transfer of more than 50% of the Company’s assets other than inventory
in the ordinary course of business in one or a related series of transactions;
or

(iii)          closing
of a purchase, tender or exchange offer made to the holders of more than fifty
percent (50%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock in which more than
fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock were tendered and
accepted.

 16
 

(d)           ­“Triggering
Event”.  A “Triggering Event” shall
be deemed to have occurred at such time as any of the following events:

(i)            so
long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement, after it becomes effective, (i)
lapses for any reason (including, without limitation, the issuance of a stop
order) and such lapse continues for a period of twenty (20) consecutive trading
days, or (ii) is unavailable to the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock for
sale of the shares of Common Stock, and such lapse or unavailability continues
for a period of twenty (20) consecutive trading days, and the shares of Common
Stock into which such holder’s Series A Preferred Stock can be converted cannot
be sold in the public securities market pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144(k)”), provided that the
cause of such lapse or unavailability is not due to factors solely within the
control of such holder of Series A Preferred Stock.

(ii)           the
suspension from listing or trading, without subsequent listing on any one of,
or the failure of the Common Stock to be listed or traded on at least one of,
the OTC Bulletin Board, the Nasdaq National Market, the Nasdaq Capital Market,
the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. or the American Stock Exchange, Inc., for a
period of five (5) consecutive trading days;

(iii)          the
Company’s notice to any holder of Series A Preferred Stock, including by way of
public announcement, at any time, of its inability to comply (including,
without limitation, for any of the reasons described in Section 9) or its
intention not to comply with proper requests for conversion of any Series A
Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock; or

(iv)          the
Company’s failure to comply with a Conversion Notice tendered in accordance
with the provisions of this Certificate of Designation within ten (10) business
days after the receipt by the Company of the Conversion Notice and the
Preferred Stock Certificates; or

(v)           the
Company deregisters its shares of Common Stock and as a result such shares of
Common Stock are no longer publicly traded; or

(vi)          the
Company consummates a “going private” transaction and as a result the Common
Stock is no longer registered under Sections 12(b) or 12(g) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; or

(vii)         the
Company breaches any representation, warranty, covenant or other term or
condition of the Purchase Agreement, this Certificate of Designation or any
other agreement, document, certificate or other instrument delivered in
connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby, except to the
extent that such breach would not have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in
the Purchase Agreement) and except, in the case of a breach of a covenant which
is curable, only if such breach continues for a period of a least ten (10)
business days.

 17
 

(e)           Mechanics of
Redemption at Option of Buyer Upon Major Transaction.  No sooner than fifteen (15) days nor later
than ten (10) days prior to the consummation of a Major Transaction, but not
prior to the public announcement of such Major Transaction, the Company shall
deliver written notice thereof via facsimile and overnight courier (“Notice of
Major Transaction”) to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock.  At any time after receipt of a Notice of
Major Transaction (or, in the event a Notice of Major Transaction is not
delivered at least ten (10) days prior to a Major Transaction, at any time
within ten (10) days prior to a Major Transaction), any holder of Series A
Preferred Stock then outstanding may require the Company to redeem, effective
immediately prior to the consummation of such Major Transaction, all of the
holder’s Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding by delivering written notice
thereof via facsimile and overnight courier (“Notice of Redemption at Option of
Buyer Upon Major Transaction”) to the Company, which Notice of Redemption at
Option of Buyer Upon Major Transaction shall indicate (i) the number of shares
of Series A Preferred Stock that such holder is electing to redeem and (ii) the
applicable Major Transaction Redemption Price, as calculated pursuant to
Section 8(a) above.

(f)            ­­Mechanics of
Redemption at Option of Buyer Upon Triggering Event.  Within one (1) business day after the Company
obtains knowledge of the occurrence of a Triggering Event, the Company shall
deliver written notice thereof via facsimile and overnight courier (“Notice of
Triggering Event”) to each holder of Series A Preferred Stock.  At any time after the earlier of a holder’s
receipt of a Notice of Triggering Event and such holder becoming aware of a
Triggering Event, any holder of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding may
require the Company to redeem all of the Series A Preferred Stock by delivering
written notice thereof via facsimile and overnight courier (“Notice of
Redemption at Option of Buyer Upon Triggering Event”) to the Company, which
Notice of Redemption at Option of Buyer Upon Triggering Event shall indicate
(i) the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock that such holder is
electing to redeem and (ii) the applicable Triggering Event Redemption Price,
as calculated pursuant to Section 8(b) above.

(g)           Payment of
Redemption Price.  Upon the Company’s
receipt of a Notice(s) of Redemption at Option of Buyer Upon Triggering Event
or a Notice(s) of Redemption at Option of Buyer Upon Major Transaction from any
holder of Series A Preferred Stock, the Company shall immediately notify such
holder of Series A Preferred Stock by facsimile of the Company’s receipt of
such Notice(s) of Redemption at Option of Buyer Upon Triggering Event or
Notice(s) of Redemption at Option of Buyer Upon Major Transaction and each
holder which has sent such a notice shall promptly submit to the Company such
holder’s Preferred Stock Certificates which such holder has elected to have
redeemed.  Other than with respect to the
Triggering Event described in clause (iv) of Section 8(d), the Company shall
have the sole option to pay the Redemption Price in cash or shares of Common
Stock in accordance with Sections 8(a) and (b) and Section 9 of this
Certificate of Designation.  The Company
shall deliver the applicable Major Transaction Redemption Price immediately
prior to the consummation of the Major Transaction; provided that a
holder’s Preferred Stock Certificates shall have been so delivered to the
Company; provided  further that if the Company is unable to redeem
all of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed, the Company shall redeem an
amount from each holder of Series A Preferred Stock being redeemed equal to
such holder’s pro-rata amount (based on the number of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock held by such holder relative to the number of 

 18
 

shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding) of all Series A
Preferred Stock being redeemed.  If the
Company shall fail to redeem all of the Series A Preferred Stock submitted for
redemption (other than pursuant to a dispute as to the arithmetic calculation
of the Redemption Price), in addition to any remedy such holder of Series A
Preferred Stock may have under this Certificate of Designation and the Purchase
Agreement, the applicable Redemption Price payable in respect of such
unredeemed Series A Preferred Stock shall bear interest at the rate of 2.0% per
month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full.  Until the Company pays such unpaid applicable
Redemption Price in full to a holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock
submitted for redemption, such holder shall have the option (the “Void Optional
Redemption Option”) to, in lieu of redemption, require the Company to promptly
return to such holder(s) all of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock that
were submitted for redemption by such holder(s) under this Section 8 and for
which the applicable Redemption Price has not been paid, by sending written
notice thereof to the Company via facsimile (the “Void Optional Redemption
Notice”).  Upon the Company’s receipt of
such Void Optional Redemption Notice(s) and prior to payment of the full
applicable Redemption Price to such holder, (i) the Notice(s) of Redemption at
Option of Buyer Upon Major Transaction or Notice(s) of Redemption at Option of
Buyer Upon Triggering Event (as applicable) shall be null and void with respect
to those shares of Series A Preferred Stock submitted for redemption and for
which the applicable Redemption Price has not been paid and (ii) the Company
shall immediately return any Series A Preferred Stock submitted to the Company
by each holder for redemption under this Section 8(d) and for which the
applicable Redemption Price has not been paid and (iii) the Conversion Price of
such returned shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be adjusted to the
lesser of (A) the Conversion Price and (B) the lowest Closing Bid Price during
the period beginning on the date on which the Notice(s) of Redemption of Option
of Buyer Upon Major Transaction or Notice(s) of Redemption of Option of Buyer
Upon Triggering Event is delivered to the Company and ending on the date on
which the Void Optional Redemption Notice(s) is delivered to the Company; provided
that no adjustment shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase
of the Conversion Price then in effect; provided that no adjustment
shall be made if such adjustment would result in an increase of the Conversion
Price then in effect.  A holder’s
delivery of a Void Optional Redemption Notice and exercise of its rights following
such notice shall not effect the Company’s obligations to make any payments
which have accrued prior to the date of such notice other than interest
payments.  Payments provided for in this
Section 8 shall have priority to payments to other stockholders in connection
with a Major Transaction.

(h)           Demand
Registration Rights.  If the
Redemption Price upon the occurrence of a Major Transaction or a Triggering
Event is paid in shares of Common Stock and such shares have not been
previously registered on a registration statement under the Securities Act, a
holder of Series A Preferred Stock may make a written request for registration
under the Securities Act pursuant to this Section 8(h) of all of its shares of
Common Stock issued upon such Major Transaction or Triggering Event.  The Company shall use its reasonable best
efforts to cause to be filed and declared effective as soon as reasonably
practicable (but in no event later than the ninetieth (90th) day after such holder’s
request is made) a registration statement under the Securities Act, providing
for the sale of all of the shares of Common Stock issued upon such Major
Transaction or Triggering Event by such holder. 
The Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to keep any such
registration statement continuously effective for resale of the Common Stock
for so long as such holder shall request, but in no event shall the Company 

 19
 

be required to maintain the effectiveness of such registration
statement later than the date that the shares of Common Stock issued upon such
Major Transaction or Triggering Event may be offered for resale to the public
pursuant to Rule 144(k).

(i)            Holder’s
Redemption Option.  In addition to
all other rights of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock contained herein, on
any date that is at least five (5) years following the Issuance Date (“Redemption
Option Date”), each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right, at
such holder’s option, to require the Company to redeem all or a portion of such
holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Redemption Option”) at a
price per share of Series A Preferred Stock equal to one hundred percent (100%)
of the Liquidation Preference Amount, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends and
liquidated damages.  The Holder shall
exercise the Redemption Option by delivering written notice thereof via
facsimile and overnight courier (“Notice of Redemption Option”) to the Company
five (5) days prior to the Redemption Option Date, which Notice of Redemption
Option shall indicate (i) the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock that
such holder is electing to redeem and (ii) the applicable Holder’s Redemption
Option Price.  For purposes hereof, “VWAP”
shall mean, for any date, (i) the daily volume weighted average closing price
of the Common Stock for such date on the OTC Bulletin Board as reported by
Bloomberg Financial L.P. (based on a trading day from 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time to
4:02 p.m. Eastern Time); (ii) if the Common Stock is not then listed or
quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board and if prices for the Common Stock are then
reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by the Pink Sheets, LLC (or a similar
organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the
most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported; or
(iii) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock
as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holder
and reasonably acceptable to the Company. 
If, upon the Company’s receipt of a Notice of Redemption Option, the
Company cannot redeem the number of holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock
indicated on such notice, than the holder shall have the option to appoint
additional members (“Additional Designees”) to the Board of the
Directors, which the Company shall appoint no later than thirty (30) days
following the receipt of the Notice of Redemption Option, such that such
Additional Designees plus the Purchaser Designees (as defined in the Purchase
Agreement) shall comprise the majority of the members of the Board of Directors
of the Company.

9.             ­Inability to Fully Convert.

(a)           ­Holder’s Option
if Company Cannot Fully Convert.  If,
upon the Company’s receipt of a Conversion Notice, the Company cannot issue
shares of Common Stock registered for resale under the Registration Statement
for any reason, including, without limitation, because the Company (w) does not
have a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized and available,
(x) is otherwise prohibited by applicable law or by the rules or regulations of
any stock exchange, interdealer quotation system or other self-regulatory
organization with jurisdiction over the Company or its securities from issuing
all of the Common Stock which is to be issued to a holder of Series A Preferred
Stock pursuant to a Conversion Notice or (y) subsequent to the effective date
of the Registration Statement, fails to have a sufficient number of shares of
Common Stock registered for resale under the Registration Statement, then the
Company shall issue as many shares of Common Stock as it is able to issue in
accordance with such holder’s Conversion Notice and pursuant to Section
5(b)(ii) above and,

 

 20

with respect to the unconverted Series A Preferred Stock, the holder,
solely at such holder’s option, can elect, within five (5) business days after
receipt of notice from the Company thereof to:

(i)            require
the Company to redeem from such holder those Series A Preferred Stock for which
the Company is unable to issue Common Stock in accordance with such holder’s
Conversion Notice (“Mandatory Redemption”) at a price per share equal to the
Major Transaction Redemption Price as of such Conversion Date (the “Mandatory
Redemption Price”); provided that the Company shall have the sole option to pay
the Mandatory Redemption Price in cash or shares of Common Stock;

(ii)           if
the Company’s inability to fully convert Series A Preferred Stock is pursuant
to Section 9(a)(y) above, require the Company to issue restricted shares of
Common Stock in accordance with such holder’s Conversion Notice and pursuant to
Section 5(b)(ii) above;

(iii)          void
its Conversion Notice and retain or have returned, as the case may be, the
shares of Series A Preferred Stock that were to be converted pursuant to such
holder’s Conversion Notice (provided that a holder’s voiding its Conversion
Notice shall not effect the Company’s obligations to make any payments which
have accrued prior to the date of such notice); or

(iv)          exercise
its Buy-In rights pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and provisions
of Section 5(b)(vi) hereof.

(b)           ­Mechanics of
Fulfilling Holder’s Election.  The
Company shall immediately send via facsimile or overnight courier to a holder
of Series A Preferred Stock, upon receipt of an original or facsimile copy of a
Conversion Notice from such holder which cannot be fully satisfied as described
in Section 9(a) above, a notice of the Company’s inability to fully satisfy
such holder’s Conversion Notice (the “Inability to Fully Convert Notice”).  Such Inability to Fully Convert Notice shall
indicate (i) the reason why the Company is unable to fully satisfy such holder’s
Conversion Notice, (ii) the number of Series A Preferred Stock which cannot be
converted and (iii) the applicable Mandatory Redemption Price.  Such holder shall notify the Company of its
election pursuant to Section 9(a) above by delivering written notice via
facsimile to the Company (“Notice in Response to Inability to Convert”).

(c)           ­Payment of
Redemption Price.  If such holder
shall elect to have its shares redeemed pursuant to Section 9(a)(i) above, the
Company shall pay the Mandatory Redemption Price to such holder within thirty
(30) days of the Company’s receipt of the holder’s Notice in Response to
Inability to Convert, provided that prior to the Company’s receipt of
the holder’s Notice in Response to Inability to Convert the Company has not
delivered a notice to such holder stating, to the satisfaction of the holder,
that the event or condition resulting in the Mandatory Redemption has been
cured and all Conversion Shares issuable to such holder can and will be
delivered to the holder in accordance with the terms of Section 2(g).  If the Company shall fail to pay the
applicable Mandatory Redemption Price to such holder on a timely basis as
described in this Section 9(c) (other than pursuant to a dispute as to the
determination of the arithmetic 

 21
 

calculation of the Redemption Price), in addition to any remedy such
holder of Series A Preferred Stock may have under this Certificate of
Designation and the Purchase Agreement, such unpaid amount shall bear interest
at the rate of 2.0% per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full.  Until the full Mandatory Redemption Price is
paid in full to such holder, such holder may (i) void the Mandatory Redemption
with respect to those Series A Preferred Stock for which the full Mandatory
Redemption Price has not been paid, (ii) receive back such Series A Preferred
Stock, and (iii) require that the Conversion Price of such returned Series A
Preferred Stock be adjusted to the lesser of (A) the Conversion Price and (B)
the lowest Closing Bid Price during the period beginning on the Conversion Date
and ending on the date the holder voided the Mandatory Redemption.

(d)           ­Pro-rata
Conversion and Redemption.  In the
event the Company receives a Conversion Notice from more than one holder of
Series A Preferred Stock on the same day and the Company can convert and redeem
some, but not all, of the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 9,
the Company shall convert and redeem from each holder of Series A Preferred
Stock electing to have Series A Preferred Stock converted and redeemed at such
time an amount equal to such holder’s pro-rata amount (based on the number
shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder relative to the number
shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding) of all shares of Series A
Preferred Stock being converted and redeemed at such time.

10.           ­Vote to Change the Terms of or
Issue Preferred Stock.  The
affirmative vote at a meeting duly called for such purpose or the written
consent without a meeting, of the holders of not less than seventy-five percent
(75%) of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock (in addition
to any other corporate approvals then required to effect such action), shall be
required (a) for any change to this Certificate of Designation or the Company’s
Articles of Incorporation which would amend, alter, change or repeal any of the
powers, designations, preferences and rights of the Series A Preferred Stock or
(b) for the issuance of shares of Series A Preferred Stock other than pursuant
to the Purchase Agreement.

11.           ­Lost or Stolen Certificates.  Upon receipt by the Company of evidence
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
any Preferred Stock Certificates representing the shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification
undertaking by the holder to the Company and, in the case of mutilation, upon
surrender and cancellation of the Preferred Stock Certificate(s), the Company
shall execute and deliver new preferred stock certificate(s) of like tenor and
date; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated
to re-issue Preferred Stock Certificates if the holder contemporaneously
requests the Company to convert such shares of Series A Preferred Stock into
Common Stock.

12.           ­Remedies, Characterizations, Other
Obligations, Breaches and Injunctive  Relief.  The remedies provided in this Certificate of
Designation shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available
under this Certificate of Designation, at law or in equity (including a decree
of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), no remedy contained
herein shall be deemed a waiver of compliance with the provisions giving rise
to such remedy and nothing herein shall limit a holder’s right to pursue actual
damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this
Certificate of Designation.  Amounts set
forth or provided for 

 22
 

herein with respect to
payments, conversion and the like (and the computation thereof) shall be the
amounts to be received by the holder thereof and shall not, except as expressly
provided herein, be subject to any other obligation of the Company (or the
performance thereof).  The Company
acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause
irreparable harm to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and that the
remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate.  The Company therefore agrees that, in the
event of any such breach or threatened breach, the holders of the Series A Preferred
Stock shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an
injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic
loss and without any bond or other security being required.

13.           ­Specific Shall Not Limit General;
Construction.  No specific provision
contained in this Certificate of Designation shall limit or modify any more
general provision contained herein.  This
Certificate of Designation shall be deemed to be jointly drafted by the Company
and all initial purchasers of the Series A Preferred Stock and shall not be
construed against any person as the drafter hereof.

14.           ­Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver.  No failure or delay on the part of a holder
of Series A Preferred Stock in the exercise of any power, right or privilege
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further
exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.

15.           Demand Registration Rights for
Additional Registrable Securities.

(a)           Solely with respect to the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock
issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrants (the “Additional Registrable
Securities”) of the Company, a holder may make a written request to the Company
(a “Demand Notice”) for registration under the Securities Act (a “Demand
Registration”), pursuant to this Section 15 of all of its Registrable
Securities; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to
effect more than two Demand Registrations pursuant to this Section 15 (which
registration shall be made on Form SB-2, or a successor form thereto, if
available for use by the Company).  The
Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file a registration statement
under the Securities Act providing for the resale of all of the Additional
Registrable Securities within thirty (30) days following delivery of the Demand
Notice (the “Filing Date”) and have it declared effective within ninety (90)
days following delivery of the Demand Notice (the “Effectiveness Date”).  The Company agrees to use its reasonable best
efforts to keep any such registration statement continuously effective for
resale of the Additional Registrable Securities for so long as a holder shall
request, but in no event shall the Company be required to maintain the
effectiveness of such registration statement later than the date that the
Additional Registrable Securities may be offered for resale to the public
pursuant to Rule 144(k) (the “Effectiveness Period”).

(b)           A holder may, at any
time prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating to such
registration, revoke such request by providing a written notice to the Company
revoking such request.  If a holder shall
revoke any demand for registration or such Demand Registration otherwise fails
to become effective as a result of any action or inaction by 

 23
 

such holder, a
holder shall count such revoked demand as one completed demand for registration
pursuant to this Section 15.

(c)           A Demand Registration
requested pursuant to this Section 15 will not be deemed to have been effected
unless the registration statement relating thereto has become effective under
the Securities Act and remained effective for a period of ninety (90) days
following the effective date of such registration statement.

(d)           The Company and the
holder of the Series A Preferred Stock agree that the holder will suffer
damages if the registration statement is not filed on or prior to the Filing
Date and not declared effective by the SEC on or prior to the Effectiveness
Date.  The Company and the Holder further
agree that it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages
with precision.  Accordingly, if (A) the
registration statement is not filed on or prior to the Filing Date, or (B) the
registration statement is not declared effective by the SEC on or prior to the
Effectiveness Date, or (C) the Company fails to file with the SEC a request for
acceleration in accordance with Rule 461 promulgated under the Securities Act within
three (3) business days of the date that the Company is notified (orally or in
writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that a registration statement will
not be “reviewed,” or not subject to further review, or (D) the registration
statement is filed with and declared effective by the SEC but thereafter ceases
to be effective at any time prior to the expiration of the Effectiveness
Period, or (E) trading in the Common Stock shall be suspended or if the Common
Stock is no longer quoted on or delisted from the principal exchange on which
the Common Stock is then traded for any reason for more than three (3) business
days in the aggregate (any such failure or breach being referred to as an “Event,”
and for purposes of clauses (A) and (B) the date on which such Event occurs, or
for purposes of clause (C) the date on which such three (3) business day period
is exceeded, or for purposes of clause (D) after more than fifteen (15)
business days, or for purposes of clause (E) the date on which such three (3) business
day period is exceeded, being referred to as “Event Date”), the Company
shall pay an amount as liquidated damages to the Holder, payable in cash, equal
to one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the aggregate Warrant Price paid pursuant
to the exercise of Series A Warrant for each calendar month or portion thereof
thereafter from the Event Date until the applicable Event is cured; provided,
however, that in no event shall the amount of liquidated damages payable
at any time and from time to time to any Holder pursuant to this Section 13(d)
exceed an aggregate of fifteen percent (15%) of the aggregate Warrant Price
paid pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant. 
Liquidated damages payable by the Company pursuant to this Section 13(d)
shall be payable on the first (1st) business day of each thirty (30) day
period following the Event Date.
