1.2

The License will have an initial period of three (3) full calendar years plus the remaining portion of the present calendar year (the “Initial Period”) during which the License may only be terminated for a non-cured material breach, and the License will automatically extend for subsequent one calendar year periods provided that the License has not been terminated under Paragraph 1.3, below.

1.3

(a) Lifestream may terminate this Agreement with written notice of one calendar year if Royalty Payments during the immediately preceding calendar year are less than one thousand dollars ($1,000);

(b) LifeNexus may terminate this Agreement with thirty (30) days written notice;

(c) this Agreement will automatically terminate if LifeNexus files for bankruptcy or abandons use of the Trademark Portfolio.

1.4

Lifestream may not use, license, assign or otherwise transfer any rights to the Trademark Portfolio in the Licensed Field of Use.

1.5

Lifestream may not assign or otherwise transfer any right in the Trademark Portfolio or its rights or obligations under this Agreement to a third party except by transfer to a successor corporation through merger or acquisition of Lifestream or the portion of the Lifestream business to which the Trademark Portfolio pertains without the express, written approval of LifeNexus, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld.

1.6

In the event of a transfer of Lifestream or the portion of the Lifestream business to which the Trademark Portfolio pertains to a successor corporation through merger or acquisition, or upon assignment or other transfer of any right under the Trademark Portfolio to a third party, the License will automatically become an exclusive, royalty-free, fully-paid, non-terminable, perpetual, worldwide license in the Licensed Field of Use.

1.8

LifeNexus may not assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations under this Agreement except by transfer to a successor corporation through merger or acquisition of LifeNexus or the portion of the LifeNexus business to which the Trademark Portfolio pertains without the express, written approval of Lifestream, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld.

II.

PAYMENT

2.1

In the event that the Royalty Payments due Lifestream during any calendar year after the Initial Period are less than one thousand dollars ($1,000), LifeNexus may elect to increase the Royalty Payments for that calendar year to one thousand dollars ($1,000) and thereby maintain all associated rights under this Agreement.

2.3

Royalty Payments under this Agreement will be based on revenues actually received by LifeNexus (i.e., cash basis accounting; “net sales revenue” means gross receipts actually received by LifeNexus less sales commissions and promotional allowances actually paid by LifeNexus to third parties), will be computed on a calendar quarterly basis, and will be due and payable to Lifestream thirty (30) days after the end of each quarter for net sales revenues during the immediately preceding calendar quarter. A final Royalty Payment will be due and payable to Lifestream thirty (30) days after termination.

2.4

LifeNexus will keep appropriate accounting records of net sales revenue in the Licensed Field of Use.

2.5

LifeNexus will accompany each Royalty Payment with a written Royalty Report stating the gross receipts actually received by LifeNexus and sales commissions and promotional discounts actually paid by LifeNexus to third parties in the Licensed Field of Use, and showing the computation of the Royalty Payment, for the associated quarter. If there have been no revenue actually received by LifeNexus during a quarter, then LifeNexus need not provide Lifestream with a Royalty Report for that quarter.

2.6

Lifestream will have the right to reasonably audit the records of LifeNexus supporting the computation of the Royalty Payments. In the event that any audit reveals an underpayment of any Royalty Payment of ten percent (10%) or more, then LifeNexus will reimburse Lifestream the actual, out-of-pocket costs associated with the audit.

Lifestream will advise LifeNexus of the steps, which shall not be unreasonable, that it may elect to undertake to cure the objectionable circumstances. Failure of LifeNexus to implement such steps within thirty (30) days of the notification to Lifestream’s reasonable satisfaction may constitute a material breach and a potential basis for termination of this Agreement.

4.2

4.5

                                                                    Page 6 of 34

                  (B) for registration rights on the same terms granted to the
                      Investors,

                  (C) for such other terms as are normal and customary for
                      Placement Agent Warrants issued to placement agents.

     (c) The Company has agreed to pay the Placement agent a cash fee of five
percent (5.0%) of the amount of funds received by the Company upon the exercise
of any of the Warrants sold in the Private Placement, which fee shall be paid
within five days of the Company's receipt of any such funds in connection with
any such exercise of the Warrants.

     (d) All terms of the Financial Advisory Agreement entered into between the
Company and the Placement Agent on April 25, 2005 ("FINANCIAL ADVISORY
AGREEMENT") shall remain in full force and effect. The Financial Advisory
Agreement grants a right of first refusal and certain fee rights to the
Placement Agent during the term of the Financial Advisory Agreement and for a
period of 18 months thereafter, as more fully described in such agreement.

     (e) Upon receipt by the Company from a proposed Investor of completed
Subscription Documents, and such other documents as the Company requests, the
Company and Maxim will determine in their reasonable discretion whether they
wish to accept or reject the subscription.

4.   PAYMENT BY COMPANY OF EXPENSES

     The Company will pay for or promptly reimburse to Maxim, as the case may
be, and whether or not any Securities are sold in connection with the Private
Placement , all expenses of the Company and Maxim relating to the Private
Placement (including all reasonable legal fees incurred by Maxim) and all other
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of Maxim relating to activities under this
Agreement, including, without limitation: (i) the preparation, printing,
reproduction, filing, distribution and mailing of the Offering Documents and all
other documents relating to the Private Placement, and any supplements or
amendments thereto, including the fees and expenses of counsel to the Company,
and the cost of all copies thereof; (ii) the issuance, sale, transfer and
delivery of the Private Placement Securities, including any transfer or other
taxes payable thereon and the fees of any transfer agent or registrar; (iii) the

expenses, travel, legal in connection with the Private Placement (in a fixed
amount of $30,000), and other related expenses. Any expenses (other than Maxim's
legal or other professional expenses) in excess of $3,000 shall be subject to
prior approval by the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed. For the avoidance of doubt, the fees and disbursements of legal
counsel to Maxim in connection with the Registration Statement (as defined
below) as contemplated by Section 9(c) hereof shall be separate from and in
addition to the foregoing fees.

5.   TERMINATION OF PRIVATE PLACEMENT

     The Private Placement may be terminated: (i) by Maxim or the Company at any
time upon fifteen (15) days prior written notice; (ii) by the Company on July
26, 2005 or any day thereafter, on prior written notice to Maxim; or (iii)
immediately by Maxim upon giving written notice to the Company, but, with
respect to clause (iii), only in the event that if:

     (a) in the opinion of Maxim, the Offering Documents contain an untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements appearing therein
not misleading in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, and
the Company shall not have corrected such untrue statement or omission to the
reasonable satisfaction of Maxim and its counsel within ten (10) days after the
Company receives notice of such untrue statement or omission, provided that
notwithstanding such ten (10) day period, no Closing shall occur hereunder until
Maxim shall notify the Company that it is satisfied, in its reasonable
determination, that the Company has taken such steps (including circulating
amended offering materials and afforded prospective Investors a reasonable
opportunity to review such amendments) to allow the applicable Closing to occur;
or

     (b) the Company shall be in material breach of any representation, warranty
or covenant made by it in this Agreement, any Subscription Document or any other
document relating to the Private Placement ("CAUSE"); or

     (c) (i) any calamitous domestic or international event or act or occurrence
has taken place and, in Maxim's opinion, has or will materially disrupt general
securities markets in the United States in the immediate future; or (ii) if
trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, or in the
over-the-counter market shall have been suspended or minimum or maximum prices
for trading shall have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities
shall have been required on the over-the-counter market by the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD") or by order of the SEC or any
other government authority having jurisdiction; or (iii) if the United States
shall have become subject to an act of terrorism or involved in a war, major
hostilities or the like; or (iv) if a banking moratorium has been declared by a
New York State or federal authority; or (v) if the Company shall have sustained
a material loss, whether or not insured, by reason of fire, flood, accident or
other calamity; or (vii) if there shall have been such material adverse change
in the conditions or prospects of the Company, involving a change not
contemplated by the Offering Documents; or (viii) if there shall have been such
material adverse general market conditions as in Maxim's reasonable judgment
would make it inadvisable to proceed with the Private Placement or the sale or
delivery of the Securities.

6.   PRIVATE PLACEMENT OFFERING PERIOD; CLOSINGS

     Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Units which are
the subject of the Private Placement will be offered as described in Section
1(b) hereof. Unless the Private Placement Minimum Amount is subscribed for and
accepted by the Company by the Termination Date (as the same may be extended
pursuant to the terms hereof), the Private Placement will be terminated and all
subscription proceeds will be returned to Investors without interest or
deduction. At any Closing, the Company shall deliver to the Investors
instruments or preferred stock or warrant certificates representing the
securities underlying the Units and instruments representing the Placement Agent
Warrants, duly executed by the Company, together with such other closing
documentation as may be required by Maxim in its reasonable discretion in order
to affect the applicable Closing. Any date on which a Closing occurs is referred
to herein as a "CLOSING DATE."

7.   REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY

     The Company hereby represents, warrants, covenants and agrees with and to
Maxim: (i) as of the date hereof, (ii) as of each applicable Closing Date and
(iii) as of the date of the filing of the Registration Statement (or any
amendment or supplement thereto), as follows and except as disclosed in the
Company's periodic reports as filed with the SEC. References in this Section 7
to the Offering Documents are made on the assumption, and the Company's
agreement, that the Offering Documents have been prepared to contain
substantially all of the information required in a Registration Statement on
Form SB-2 under the Act.

     (a) The Company has been validly formed and legally exists as a corporation
in good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Company has full
corporate power and authority to conduct its business as currently conducted,
and is in good standing in the jurisdiction in which the conduct of its
businesses or the nature of its properties requires such qualification or
authorization, except where the failure to be so qualified or authorized and in
good standing could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect
on the business and financial condition of the Company or any other Subsidiary
(as defined below) of the Company, each taken as a whole (a "MATERIAL ADVERSE
EFFECT"). As of the date hereof, the Company does not have, directly or
indirectly, any subsidiaries other than as disclosed in the Company's filings
with the SEC (each, a "SUBSIDIARY" and collectively, the "SUBSIDIARIES"). Each
Subsidiary has been duly organized, is validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has the power and
authority to own its properties and to conduct its business and is duly
qualified and authorized to transact business and is in good standing in each
jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or the nature of its
properties requires such qualification or authorization, except where the
failure to be so qualified or authorized and in good standing could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                                                                    Page 9 of 34

     (b) Except for the Subsidiaries, the Company holds no ownership or other
interest, nominal or beneficial, direct or indirect, in any corporation,
partnership, joint venture or other business entity. With the exception of
certain pledges made by the Company's subsidiaries and for certain security
interests as granted to Laurus Master Fund, Ltd.("Laurus") as set forth in the
Company's transaction documents dated May 14th 2004 with Laurus, whereby Laurus
is recognized as the Senior Lender, all of the issued and outstanding capital
stock of each Subsidiary is owned by the Company, free and clear of any lien,
charge, mortgage, pledge, security interest, claim, equity, trust or other
encumbrance, preferential arrangement, defect or restriction of any kind
whatsoever (each, a "LIEN"), and has been duly authorized and validly issued,
and is non-assessable.

     The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 60,000,000 shares
of capital stock, of which: (i) 50,000,000 are classified as Common Stock, par
value $0.001 per share, and (ii) 10,000,000 are classified as "blank check"
preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. As of the date hereof and as of
each Closing Date, _________ shares of the Company's Common Stock, 200,000
shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 43.2 shares of Series B Preferred Stock
and no other shares of capital stock of the Company are or will be issued and
outstanding, except as otherwise contemplated by the Offering Documents and all
such shares of capital stock are, as the case may be, duly authorized, validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable and not subject to preemptive rights. The
shares of Common Stock underlying the Notes, the Warrants and the Placement
Agent Warrants, will be duly reserved, and when issued in accordance with the
terms of the Private Placement, will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and not subject to preemptive or any other similar rights and no
personal liability will attach to the ownership thereof. The outstanding
options, warrants and other convertible securities of the Company are as set
forth in the Offering Documents and the Company's filings with the SEC. Except
as disclosed in the Offering Documents, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary
is a party to an agreement, instrument or understanding which calls for, and no
securities of the Company or any Subsidiary contain provisions relating to, the
resetting or repricing of any debt or equity security instrument of the Company
or any Subsidiary. The issuance of the Securities or the consummation of the
Private Placement will not trigger any resetting or repricing of any debt or
equity security instrument of the Company or any Subsidiary.

     (c) This Agreement, the Subscription Documents, the Notes, the Warrants,
the Placement Agent Warrants, and all other documents to be entered into by the
Company in connection with the transactions described in the Offering Documents
have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes
the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the
Company in accordance with its terms, except insofar as enforcement of the
indemnification or contribution provisions hereof may be limited by applicable
laws or principles of public policy and except further as to enforcement, to the
availability of equitable remedies and limitations imposed by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization and other similar laws and related court decisions
relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally.

     (d) Neither the Offering Documents, the Registration Statement, the
Subscription Documents nor any of the Company's filings with the SEC
(collectively, the "COMPANY DOCUMENTS") contain or will contain any untrue
statement of a material fact, and the Company Documents will not omit to state
any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of

                                                                   Page 10 of 34

the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except that the
Company shall have no liability for any information provided to the Company in
writing by, and relating to, Maxim, for use in and used in the Offering
Documents. It is understood that any summary in the Offering Documents of a
document which appears therein in full (either as signed or substantially in the
form to be signed) does not constitute an untrue or misleading statement merely
because it is a summary; provided, however, that any such summary may not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading. If, at any time before the Private
Placement is completed or terminated or before all subscriptions are accepted by
the Company, there should be any change which would cause the Company Documents
not to comply with this Section 7(e), the Company will promptly advise Maxim
thereof and make any necessary corrective filings with the SEC and prepare and
furnish Maxim with, for distribution to Investors, after prior review and
approval by Maxim and its counsel (such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld), such copies of such supplements or amendments to the Offering
Documents and the Subscription Documents as will cause the Offering Documents
and the Subscription Documents, as so supplemented or amended, to comply with
this Section 7(e), and will authorize Maxim to make to Investors, if: (i) deemed
necessary by counsel to Maxim and approved by Maxim, or (ii) if deemed necessary
by counsel to the Company, an offer of rescission.

     (e) Except as disclosed in the Company Documents, since December 31, 2004,
there has been no material adverse change (or any development involving a
prospective material adverse change), whether or not arising from transactions
in the ordinary course of business, in or affecting: (i) the business, condition
(financial or otherwise), results of operations, shareholders' equity,
properties or prospects of the Company and each Subsidiary, taken as a whole;
(ii) the long-term debt or capital stock of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries; or (iii) the Private Placement or consummation of any of the other
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Since the date of the latest the
Company balance sheet presented in or attached to the Offering Documents,
neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has incurred or undertaken any
liabilities or obligations, whether direct or indirect, liquidated or
contingent, matured or unmatured, or entered into any transactions, including
any acquisition or disposition of any business or asset, which are material to
the Company and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole, except for liabilities,
obligations and transactions which are disclosed in the Offering Documents and
the exhibits thereto.

     (f) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in: (i) violation of its
certificate or articles of incorporation, by-laws or other organizational
documents, (ii) default under, and no event has occurred which, with notice or
lapse of time or both, would constitute a default under or result in the
creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of its property or assets pursuant
to, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or
instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound or to which any of its
property or assets is subject or (iii) violation in any respect of any law,
rule, regulation, ordinance, directive, judgment, decree or order of any
judicial, regulatory or other legal or governmental agency or body, foreign or
domestic, except (in the case of clause (ii) above) for any Lien disclosed in
the Offering Documents and the exhibits thereto and except, in the cases of (ii)
and (iii), where such defaults or violations do not, individually or in the
aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

     (g) The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, all Company
Documents and all other documents to be entered into by the Company in
connection with any transaction described in the Offering Documents or in
connection with the Private Placement, and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby, have been or will be prior to such execution, delivery,
performance or consummation, as the case may be, duly and validly authorized by
the Company and do not and will not: (i) constitute, or result in, a breach or
violation of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of the Certificate or
Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws or other governing documents of the Company or
any of the Subsidiaries, (ii) constitute, or result in, a material violation of
any applicable statute, law, ordinance or regulation of any state, territory or
other jurisdiction, or (iii) violate, constitute, or result in, a default under
(or an event which with the passing of time or the giving of notice or both
would constitute a default under) or breach of the terms, provisions or
conditions of any material indenture, note, contract, commitment, instrument or
document to which the Company or any of the Subsidiaries is or will be a party
or by which the Company, any of the Subsidiaries or any of its properties are
bound, or any award, judgment, decree, rule or regulation of any court or
governmental or regulatory agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company
or any of the Subsidiaries or its activities or properties. No consent,
approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental or regulatory
agency or body or any individual or entity is required on the part of the
Company for the lawful consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby, except for such consents and approvals with respect to the offer and
sale of the Securities in certain jurisdictions which are identified to Maxim by
counsel for the Company.

     (h) Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries has all necessary consents,
approvals, authorizations, orders, registrations, qualifications, licenses,
filings and permits of, with and from all applicable judicial, regulatory and
other legal or governmental agencies and bodies and all third parties, foreign
and domestic (collectively, the "CONSENTS"), to own, lease and operate their
respective properties and conduct their respective businesses as are now being
conducted and as disclosed in the Offering Documents, except where the failure
to have any such Consent would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Each such
Consent is valid and in full force and effect, and neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary has received written notice of any investigation or proceedings which
results in or, if decided adversely to the Company or any Subsidiary, could
reasonably be expected to result in, the revocation of, or imposition of a
materially burdensome restriction on, any Consent.

     (i) Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is in compliance with all
applicable laws, rules, regulations, ordinances, directives, judgments, decrees
and orders, foreign and domestic, except where the failure to so comply does or
would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

     (j) Except as disclosed in the Offering Documents, there is no judicial,
regulatory, arbitral or other legal or governmental proceeding or other
litigation or arbitration, domestic or foreign, pending to which the Company or
any Subsidiary is a party or of which any property, operations or assets of the
Company or any Subsidiary is the subject which, individually or in the
aggregate, if determined adversely to the Company or any Subsidiary, could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No such proceeding,
litigation or arbitration is threatened or contemplated, and the defense of all
such proceedings, litigation and arbitration against or involving the Company or
any Subsidiary could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

required by the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the Rules and Regulations.

     (l) Except as disclosed in the Offering Documents, and except for such

Adverse Effect on the business, operations or financial results of the Company

claims, actions, suits, investigations or proceedings before or by any
arbitrator, court, governmental authority or instrumentality pending or
threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its subsidiaries or

to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT ACT) Act of 2001, and the rules
and regulations promulgated under any such law, or any successor law, except for
such violations which, singly or in the aggregate, would not have a Material
Adverse Effect.

     (n) Except as disclosed in the Offering Documents, there are no contracts,
agreements or understandings between the Company and any person that would give
rise to a valid claim against the Company or Maxim for a brokerage commission,
finder's fee or other like payment in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or, to the Company's knowledge, any arrangements,
agreements, understandings, payments or issuance with respect to the Company or
any of its officers, directors, shareholders, partners, employees, Subsidiaries
or affiliates that may affect Maxim's compensation.

     (o) The financial statements, including the notes thereto, and the
supporting schedules included, attached to or incorporated by reference in the
Form 10-KSB included in the Offering Documents and the Offering Documents
present fairly, in all material respects the financial position as of the dates

of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries and the other entities for
which financial statements are included, attached to or incorporated by
reference in the Offering Documents. Except as otherwise stated in the Offering
Documents and the Company Documents, said financial statements have been
prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting
principles applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved. The

(p) The Company and its Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting
and other controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances 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 United States generally
accepted accounting principles and to maintain accountability for assets, (iii)
access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or
specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accounting for assets is compared
with existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken
with respect to any differences.

     (q) Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates (within the meaning of
Rule 144 under the Securities Act) (collectively, "AFFILIATES") has, prior to
the date hereof, made any offer or sale of any securities which could be
"integrated" for purposes of the Act with the offer and sale of the Securities
pursuant to the Offering Documents or the Registration Statement.

     (r) All private offers and sales of securities prior to the date hereof by
the Company or any Subsidiary have been validly exempt from registration under
the Act and have been properly registered with all applicable state securities
authorities pursuant to appropriate "blue sky" filings or otherwise and if not
properly filed or registered, all such purchasers in such private offerings have
received an offer of recission, which has been prepared and offered to
purchasers in accordance with the laws and regulations of each state in which
such recission offer was required to be made. Additionally, recission has not
been offered to purchasers that would not be entitled to any such recission

Sheet dated February 16, 2005 and Adelphia Holdings LLC, no holder of any
security of the Company or any Subsidiary has any rights to require registration
of any such security as part or on account of, or otherwise in connection with,
the offer and sale of the Securities contemplated by the Registration Statement,
and any such rights so disclosed have either been fully complied with by the
applicable entity or effectively waived by the holders thereof, and any such
waivers remain in full force and effect.

     (t) Neither the Company nor any of its respective directors, officers,
employees, agents or representatives ("COMPANY REPRESENTATIVES") has taken or
will take any action which has caused or may cause the Private Placement not to
qualify for exemption from the registration requirements of the Act or of United
States federal, state or other securities or other laws. In connection with the
Private Placement, neither the Company nor the Company Representatives shall
offer or cause to be offered the Securities by any form of general solicitation
or general advertising as defined in Rule 502(c) of Regulation D. The Company
and the Company Representatives have not taken and shall not take any action
(except for actions contemplated by the Offering Documents) that would cause the
Private Placement to be integrated with other transactions under Rule 502(a) of
Regulation D.

     (u) No relationship, direct or indirect, exists between the Company or any
of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and any director, officer, shareholder,
customer or supplier of the Company or any Affiliate of them, on the other hand,
which is required by the Act or the Exchange Act to be described in the Form
10-KSB included in the Offering Documents which is not so described and
described as required. There are no outstanding loans, advances (except normal
advances for business expenses in the ordinary course of business) or guarantees
of indebtedness by the Company to or for the benefit of any of the officers or
directors of the Company or any of their respective family members, except as
disclosed in the Form 10-KSB included in the Offering Documents. The Company has
not, in violation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("SARB-OX"), directly or
indirectly, including through a Subsidiary (other than as permitted under the
Sarb-Ox for depositary institutions), extended or maintained credit, arranged
for the extension of credit, or renewed an extension of credit, in the form of a
personal loan to or for any director or executive officer of the Company.

     (v) The Company is in material compliance with the provisions of Sarb-Ox
and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and related or similar
rules and regulations promulgated by NASDAQ or any other governmental or self
regulatory entity or agency, except for such violations which, singly or in the
aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

     (w) With the exception of product liability insurance, the Company and/or
the Subsidiaries maintain insurance in such amounts and covering such risks as
they reasonably consider adequate for the conduct of their businesses and the
value of their properties and as is customary for companies engaged in similar
businesses in similar industries, all of which insurance is in full force and
effect. There are no claims by the Company or any Subsidiary under any such
policy or instrument as to which any insurance company is denying liability or
defending under a reservation of rights clause. The Company reasonably believes
that it will be able to renew its existing insurance, if any, as and when such
coverage expires or will be able to obtain replacement insurance adequate for
the conduct of its business.

     (x) No "prohibited transaction" (as defined in either Section 406 of the
ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time
to time (the "CODE")), "accumulated funding deficiency" (as defined in Section
302 of ERISA) or other event of the kind described in Section 4043(b) of ERISA
(other than events with respect to which the 30-day notice requirement under
Section 4043 of ERISA has been waived) has occurred with respect to any employee
benefit plan for which the Company or any Subsidiary would have any liability;
each employee benefit plan of the Company or any Subsidiary is in compliance in
all material respects with applicable law, including (without limitation) ERISA
and the Code; the Company has not incurred and does not expect to incur
liability under Title IV of ERISA with respect to the termination of, or
withdrawal from any "pension plan"; and each employee benefit plan of the
Company or any Subsidiary that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a)
of the Code is so qualified and nothing has occurred, whether by action or by
failure to act, which could cause the loss of such qualification.

     (y) The Company and each Subsidiary owns or leases all such properties as
are necessary to the conduct of their businesses as presently operated and as
proposed to be operated as described in the Offering Documents. The Company and
each Subsidiary have good and marketable title in fee simple to all real
property and good and marketable title to all personal property owned by them,
in each case free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, except such as are
described in the Offering Documents or such as do not (individually or in the
aggregate) materially affect the business or prospects of the Company or any of
the Subsidiaries. Any real property and buildings held under lease or sublease
by the Company and the Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and
enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material to, and do not
interfere with, the use made and proposed to be made of such property and
buildings by the Company and the Subsidiaries. Neither the Company nor any
Subsidiary has received any notice of any claim adverse to its ownership of any
real or personal property or of any claim against the continued possession of
any real property, whether owned or held under lease or sublease by the Company
or any Subsidiary.

     (z) The Company and each Subsidiary: (i) owns or possesses adequate right
to use all patents, patent applications, trademarks, service marks, trade names,
trademark registrations, service mark registrations, copyrights, licenses,
formulae, customer lists, and know-how and other intellectual property
(including trade secrets and other unpatented and/or unpatentable proprietary or
confidential information, systems or procedures, "INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY")
necessary for the conduct of their respective businesses as being conducted and
as described in the Offering Documents and (ii) does not believe that the
conduct of their respective businesses does or will conflict with, and have not
received any notice of any claim of conflict with, any such right of others. All
material technical information developed by and belonging to the Company or any
Subsidiary which has not been patented has been kept confidential so as, among
other things, all such information may be deemed proprietary to the applicable
entity. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has granted or assigned to any
other person or entity any right to manufacture, have manufactured, assemble or
sell the current products and services of the Company or any Subsidiary or those
products and services described in the Offering Documents. After due
investigation, there is no infringement by third parties of any such
Intellectual Property; there is no pending or threatened action, suit,
proceeding or claim by others challenging the Company's or any Subsidiary's
rights in or to any such Intellectual Property, and the Company is unaware of
any facts which would form a reasonable basis for any such claim. There is no
pending or threatened action, suit, proceeding or claim by others that the
Company or any Subsidiary infringes or otherwise violates any patent, trademark,
copyright, trade secret or other proprietary rights of others, and the Company
is unaware of any other fact which would form a reasonable basis for any such
claim.

has, or may have, retained or assumed, either contractually or by operation of
law; and

             (v) (A) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has

         (bb) Each of the Company and the Subsidiaries has accurately prepared
and filed all federal, state, foreign and other tax returns that are required to
be filed by it and has paid or made provision for the payment of all taxes,
assessments, governmental or other similar charges, including without
limitation, all sales and use taxes and all taxes which the Company or any
Subsidiary is obligated to withhold from amounts owing to employees, creditors
and third parties, with respect to the periods covered by such tax returns
(whether or not such amounts are shown as due on any tax return). No deficiency
assessment with respect to a proposed adjustment of the Company or any
Subsidiary's federal, state, local or foreign taxes is pending or threatened.
The accruals and reserves on the books and records of the Company and the

         (gg) So long as any of the Securities are "restricted securities"
within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Act, the Company, during any
period in which it is not subject to and in compliance with Section 13 or 15(d)
of the Exchange Act, or is not exempt from such reporting requirements pursuant

prospective holder, any information required to be provided by Rule 144A(d)(4)
under the Act.

         (hh) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is and, at all times up to
and including consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
and after giving effect to application of the net proceeds of the Private
Placement, will not be, subject to registration as an "investment company" under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and is not and will not be an
entity "controlled" by an "investment company" within the meaning of such act.
The Company will: (i) utilize the proceeds of the Placement in accordance with
the "Use of Proceeds" section of the Offering Documents and (ii) initially
utilize the proceeds of the Placement and all other funds of the Company in such
a manner so as to cause the Company not to be subject to the 1940 Act, and will
thereafter use its best efforts to avoid the Company's becoming subject to the
1940 Act.

         (ii) In addition to the foregoing, to the extent not set forth herein,

Maxim and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Maxim,
enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except insofar as
enforcement of the indemnification or contribution provisions hereof may be
limited by applicable laws or principles of public policy and subject, as to

by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization and other similar laws and related
court decisions relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally.

     (b) Maxim will cooperate with the Company to ensure that the offering and
sale of the Securities will comply with the requirements of the Act, including,
without limitation, the general conditions contained in Regulation D and the
federal securities laws, and will follow the reasonable advice of the Company
with respect to the manner in which to offer and sell the Securities so as to
ensure that the offering and sale thereof will comply with the securities laws
of any jurisdiction in which Securities are offered by Maxim, and Maxim will not
make an offer of Securities in any jurisdiction in which the Company advises it
in writing that such offer would be unlawful for Maxim to offer or sell
securities.

     (c) Maxim is: (i) a registered broker-dealer under the Exchange Act; (ii) a
member in good standing of the NASD; and (iii) registered as a broker-dealer in
each jurisdiction in which it is required to be registered as such in order to

securities, the offering of which may be integrated with the Private Placement)
on the basis of any communications or documents relating to the Company or the
Securities except the Offering Documents and the exhibits thereto and documents
described, referred to or incorporated by reference therein (including the
Subscription Documents). Maxim will deliver a copy of the Offering Documents to
each prospective Investor solicited by it prior to such offeree's execution of
the Subscription Documents or, in the case of amendments or supplements to the
Offering Documents (other than those amendments and supplements approved in
writing by the Company but designated in writing as not subject to this
requirement), prior to such offeree's execution of an acknowledgment of receipt
of such amendment or supplement and reconfirmation of intent to subscribe.

     (e) Maxim will not transmit to the Company any written offer from an
offeree to purchase Securities unless, immediately prior thereto, it reasonably
believes that: (i) the offeree is an Accredited Investor; and (ii) the offeree
meets all other offeree and/or purchaser suitability standards, if any, required
under applicable securities laws and regulations.

     (f) Maxim will periodically notify the Company of the jurisdiction in which
the Securities are being offered by it or will be offered by it pursuant to this
Agreement, and will periodically notify the Company of the status of the
offering conducted pursuant to this Agreement.

9.    COVENANTS

     The Company covenants to Maxim that it shall:

     (a) Notify Maxim as soon as practicable, and confirm such notice promptly
in writing: (i) when any event shall have occurred during the period commencing
on the date hereof and ending on the later of the date of the Final Closing as a
result of which the Offering Documents would include any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and (ii) of the
receipt of any notification with respect to the modification, rescission,

                                                                   June 30, 2005
                                                                   Page 20 of 34

withdrawal or suspension of the qualification or registration of the Securities
or of an exemption from such registration or qualification in any jurisdiction.
The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any
such modification, rescission, withdrawal or suspension and, if any such
modification, rescission, withdrawal or suspension is issued, to obtain the
lifting thereof as promptly as possible.

     (b) Not supplement or amend the Offering Documents unless Maxim and its
counsel shall have approved of such supplement or amendment in writing, such
approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. If, at any
time during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the date of
the Final Closing, any event shall have occurred as a result of which the
Offering Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, or if, in the opinion of counsel to the
Company or counsel to Maxim, it is necessary at any time to supplement or amend
the Offering Documents to comply with the Act, Regulation D or any applicable
securities or "blue sky" laws, the Company will promptly prepare an appropriate
supplement or amendment (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Maxim
and its counsel) which will correct such statement or omission or which will
effect such compliance.

     (c) Include all the shares of Common Stock underlying the Notes, Warrants
and the Placement Warrants, and all shares of Common Stock included as part of
the Units, issued in this Placement in a registration statement of its
securities under the Act to be filed with the SEC within sixty (60) days
following the initial Closing of the Placement (the "TARGET FILING DATE") and
will use its best efforts to have the SEC declare such registration statement
effective by no later than one hundred-twenty (120) days following the initial
Closing of the Placement (the "TARGET EFFECTIVE DATE"), and to maintain the
effectiveness of such registration statement until the third (3rd) anniversary
of the final Closing of the Placement. In the event that the Company fails to
file the registration statement by the Target Filing Date, or fails to have the
SEC declare such registration statement effective by the Target Effective Date,
then the Company will pay the holders of the securities comprising the Units 1%
monthly payments in cash until the registration statement becomes effective. In
addition, Investors shall be provided with certain "piggy back" registration
rights as described in the Offering Documents. The Company will prepare and file
with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and
the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such
registration statement effective until the sale of the securities registered
thereunder, and shall comply with the provisions of the Act with respect to the
disposition of all securities owned by the Investors and Maxim that are covered
by such registration statement during such period in accordance with the
intended methods of disposition by the Investors and Maxim. The Company will
furnish to the Investors and Maxim such number of copies of such registration
statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included in
such registration statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and such
other documents as the Investors and Maxim may request in order to facilitate
the disposition of the shares of Common Stock which may be owned by the
Investors and Maxim. The Company shall bear all expenses of the Registration
Statement, including fees and expenses, if any, of counsel or other advisors to
the Investors and Maxim, all of which shall be payable upon the initial filing
of the Registration Statement. The Company shall also pay all expenses of the

Investors and Maxim for any "144 opinions" or other opinions which are required
in connection with any transfers of Securities made by such parties under Rule
144 or any other applicable sale or transfer (including, without limitation,
sales made pursuant to prospectus delivery). In addition to the foregoing, the
Company also grants to Maxim, with respect to the shares of Common Stock
underlying the Placement Agent Warrants, each of the registration rights and
anti-dilution protections granted to the Investors in the Placement.

     (d) Use its best good faith efforts to, within sixty (60) days of the
Closing, obtain a "key man" life insurance policy with a nationally recognized

$2,000,000 worth of coverage each.

Documents and any supplement or amendment thereto as may reasonably be requested

offer to sell to, any person or entity any Securities or other securities of the
Company except through Maxim.

general solicitation or advertising, including, without limitation, any
advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any
newspaper, magazine or similar medium or broadcast over the Internet, television
or radio or at any seminar or meeting whose attendees have been invited by any
general solicitation or advertising.

     (h) At all times during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending
on the date of the Final Closing, provide to each prospective Investor or his
purchaser representative, if any, on reasonable request, such information (in
addition to that contained in the Offering Documents) concerning the Private
Placement, the Company, the Securities and any other relevant matters as it
possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense and extend to
each prospective investor or his purchaser representative, if any, the
opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from the Company concerning
the terms and conditions of the Private Placement and the business of the
Company and to obtain any other additional information, to the extent it
possesses the same or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense, as
such prospective Investor or purchaser representative may consider necessary in
making an informed investment decision or in order to verify the accuracy of the
information furnished to such prospective Investor or purchaser representative,
as the case may be.

     (i) Notify Maxim promptly of the acceptance or rejection of any
subscription.

at the date of this Agreement and the rules and regulations with respect to
Sarb-Ox that are now or will be applicable to the Company from time to time
including, without limitation, those provisions relating to loans to Company

     (r) Not, for a period of one (1) year from the Final Closing Date, increase
the base salary of any officer of the Company in excess of ten percent (10%) per

     (s) Within one business day of the filing of the Registration Statement,
the Company will prepare and file, through Maxim's counsel, the selling
stockholder resale offering described in the Registration Statement for review
by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD") via the NASD's

expenses of the CobraDesk Filing, including fees and expenses, if any, of

Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, it will prepare and furnish to
Investor and make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) promulgated
under the Act annual and quarterly financial statements, together with a

substantially similar to those that would otherwise be required to be included
in reports required by Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as well as
any other information required thereby, in the time period that such filings
would have been required to have been made under the Exchange Act. The Company
further covenants that it will take such further action as any holder of the
Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time
to enable such holder to sell the Common Stock underlying the Securities without
registration under the Exchange Act under Rule 144 promulgated under the Act.
Upon the request of any such holder, the Company shall deliver thereto a written
certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with
such requirements.

     (v) The Company shall at all times have authorized, and reserved for the
purpose of issuance, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants and the Placement Agent
Warrants to provide for the issuance of all of such shares. Prior to complete
conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants and the Placement Agent
Warrants, the Company shall not reduce the number of shares of Common Stock
reserved for issuance hereunder without the prior written consent of the Holder
except for a reduction proportionate to a reverse stock split, which reverse
stock split affects all shares of Common Stock equally.

     If the Company would be, if a notice of conversion of the Notes or exercise
of the Warrants or Placement Agent Warrants, as applicable, were to be delivered
on such date, precluded from issuing the full number of shares of Common Stock
as would then be issuable if all Notes were converted on such date or upon the
exercise of the Warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants, due to the
unavailability of a sufficient number of shares of authorized but unissued or
re-acquired Common Stock, then the Board of Directors of the Company shall
promptly (and in any case within 30 days from such date) prepare and mail to the
stockholders of the Company proxy materials requesting authorization to amend
the Company's articles of incorporation to increase the number of shares of
Common Stock which the Company is authorized to issue to at least a number of
shares equal to the sum of (1) all shares of Common Stock then outstanding, (2)
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on account of all outstanding
warrants, options and convertible securities (other than the Notes, Warrants and
Placement Agent Warrants) and on account of all shares of Common Stock reserved
under any stock option, stock purchase, warrant or similar plan, and (3) the
number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of all Notes and
upon exercise of all Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants.

     (w) Give prompt written notice to Maxim of any breach by it of any
representation, warranty or other agreement contained in this Agreement, or any
other document to which the Company, the Placement Agent and Investor has relied
or is relying on in connection with the Offering ("TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS"), as
well as any events or occurrences arising after the date hereof, which would
reasonably be likely to cause any representation or warranty or other agreement
of such party, as the case may be, contained in the Transaction Documents to be
incorrect or breached as of and after the Closing Date. However, no disclosure
by any party pursuant to this Section shall be deemed to cure any breach of any
representation, warranty or other agreement contained in any Transaction
Documents.

     (x) Promptly seek the listing of all shares of Common Stock underlying the
Securities offered in the Offering not previously listed as such shares of
Common Stock are issued on the securities exchange, market or other quotation
system on which the Common Stock is then listed or traded and shall maintain, so
long as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all
such securities from time to time issuable under the terms of the Notes,
Warrants or Placement Agent Warrants. Once listed, the Company shall maintain
the Common Stock's authorization for listing on a securities exchange, market or
other quotation system on which the Common Stock is then listed or traded. The
Company shall promptly provide to Maxim copies of any notices it receives from
the securities exchange, market or other quotation system on which the Common
Stock is then listed or traded regarding the continued eligibility of the Common
Stock for listing on such a securities exchange, market or other quotation
system. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with
satisfying its obligations hereunder.

     (y) In addition to the foregoing, to the extent not set forth herein, Maxim
may rely on the covenants made by the Company in the Subscription Documents used
in connection with the Private Placement.

10.  CONDITIONS OF MAXIM'S OBLIGATIONS

     The obligations of Maxim pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject, in
its discretion, to the continuing accuracy of the representations and warranties
of the Company contained herein and in each certificate and document
contemplated under this Agreement to be delivered to Maxim or otherwise at any
Closing (including, without limitation, all Subscription Documents), as of the
date hereof and as of the Closing Date or the date of any Closing subsequent to
the Closing Date, to the performance by the Company of its obligations
hereunder, and to the following conditions:

     (a) At each Closing, Maxim shall have received the favorable legal opinion
of Schneider Weinberger & Beilly LLP, outside legal counsel to the Company, in
the form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Maxim and substantially to the
effect that:

         (i) The Company has been duly organized and is validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of its state of incorporation, has all requisite
corporate power and authority necessary to own or hold its properties and
conduct its business and, to our knowledge, is duly qualified or licensed to do
business as a foreign corporation in each other jurisdiction in which the
ownership or leasing of its properties or the conduct of its business requires
such qualification, except where the failure to so qualify or be licensed would
not have a Material Adverse Effect;

         (ii) Each Subsidiary is validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has the corporate power and
authority to own its properties and to conduct its business and, to our
knowledge, is duly qualified and authorized to transact business and is in good
standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or the nature
of its properties requires such qualification or authorization, except where the
failure to be so qualified or authorized and in good standing could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. To our knowledge, all
of the issued and outstanding capital stock of each Subsidiary is owned by the
Company, free and clear of any liens except as disclosed in the Offering
Documents and the Company Documents;

         (iii) Each of the Agreement, the Escrow Agreement by and among Maxim,
the Company and the Escrow Agent, the Securities, Placement Agent Warrants and
the Subscription Documents has been duly and validly authorized, executed and
delivered by the Company and is the valid and binding obligation of the Company
enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to any applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws affecting the rights and remedies of
creditors generally and to general equitable principles;

         (iv) The authorized capital stock of the Company as of the date hereof

set forth in the Form 10-KSB as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on April 14, 2005. Except for the Securities to be issued as
contemplated by this Agreement, to our knowledge, there are no outstanding
warrants, options, agreements, convertible securities, preemptive rights or
other commitments pursuant to which the Company is, or may become, obligated to
issue any shares of its capital stock or other securities of the Company other
than as set forth in the Offering Documents and the Company Documents. The
Securities and the Common Stock underlying each of the Notes, Warrants and the
Placement Agent Warrants, will be duly reserved, and when issued in accordance
with the terms of the Private Placement, will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and, to our knowledge, will not have been issued in violation of
or subject to preemptive or any other similar rights that entitle or will
entitle any Person to acquire any shares of Common Stock from the Company upon
issuance thereof and no personal liability will attach to the ownership thereof;

has, prior to the date hereof, made any offer or sale of any securities which
are required to be "integrated" pursuant to the Securities Act or the Rules and
Regulations with the offer and sale of the Securities pursuant to the Private
Placement, except for the 19,736,848 shares of common stock of the Company
issued to certain investors simultaneously herewith;

         (vi) Assuming: (i) the accuracy of the information provided by the
Investors in the Subscription Documents, (ii) that Maxim has complied in all
material respects with the requirements of Section 4(2) of the Act (and the
provisions of Regulation D promulgated thereunder), and (iii) the filing of Form
D relating to the Private Placement, the issuance and sale of the Units, and the
securities included therein, is exempt from registration under the Act and
Regulation D promulgated thereunder;

         (vii) Neither the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
and consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Private Placement and
the Offering Documents do not and will not: (a) to our knowledge, conflict with
or result in a breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a
default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time, or both, would
constitute a default) under, or result in the creation or imposition of any
lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries pursuant to, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan
agreement or any other agreement, instrument, franchise, license or permit known
to us to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which any
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective properties or

judicial, regulatory or other legal or governmental agency or body;

         (viii) To our knowledge, neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries is in violation of its respective charter or by-laws and, to our
knowledge, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default in the
performance of any material obligation, agreement, covenant or condition
contained in any indenture, loan agreement, mortgage, lease or other agreement
or instrument that is material to the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole, to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective property is bound
except as disclosed in the Offering Documents or Company Documents;

         (ix) To our knowledge, no consent approval authorization, order,
registration, filing, qualification, license or permit of or with any court or
any judicial, regulatory or other legal or governmental agency or body is
required for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Private
Placement and the Offering Documents, except for (1) such as may be required
under state securities or blue sky laws in connection with the sale of the
Securities by the Company, and (2) such as have been made or obtained under the
Act;

         (x) To our knowledge, there are no claims, actions, suits,
investigations or proceedings before or by any arbitrator, court, governmental

Company or involving the properties of the Company which might materially and
adversely affect the business, properties or financial condition of the Company,
or which might materially adversely affect the transactions or other acts
contemplated by this Agreement or the validity or enforceability of this
Agreement, except as set forth in or contemplated by the Offering Documents or
Company Documents and to our knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened or
contemplated;

         (xi) The Company is not and, after giving effect to the offering and
sale of the Securities and the application of the proceeds thereof as described
in the Offering Documents, will not be, an "investment company" as such term is
defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; and

         (xii) We have participated in the preparation of the Offering Documents
and the Company Documents and nothing has come to our attention to cause us to
have reason to believe that the Offering Documents or Company Documents

to make the statements therein not misleading.

related to or arising out of the Private Placement. This indemnity agreement by,
and the agreements, warranties and representations of the Company shall survive
the offer, sale and delivery of the Securities and the termination of this
Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any
investigation made by or on behalf of any person indemnified hereunder, and
termination of this Agreement and acceptance of any payment for the Securities
hereunder.

     (b) If any action, suit, proceeding or investigation is commenced against
Maxim, its present and former affiliated entities, managers, members, officers,
employees, legal counsel, agents and controlling persons (within the meaning of
the federal securities laws), and the officers, directors, partners,
stockholders, members, managers, employees, legal counsel, agents and
controlling persons of any of them (the "INDEMNIFIED Party" or "INDEMNIFIED
PARTIES") in respect of which indemnity may be sought against one or more of the
Company or any affiliates thereof (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY" or "INDEMNIFYING
PARTIES"), the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party or Parties
with reasonable promptness in writing of the institution of such action;
provided, however, the failure to give such notice shall not release the
Indemnifying Party or Parties from its or their obligation to indemnify the
Indemnified Party hereunder, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall
have been materially prejudiced by such delay and shall not release the
Indemnifying Party or Parties from any other obligations or liabilities to the
Indemnified Party in any event. The Indemnified Party or Parties shall have the
right to retain counsel of its own choice to represent it, and the fees,
expenses and disbursements of such counsel shall be borne by the Indemnifying
Party or Parties. Any such counsel shall, to the extent consistent with its
professional responsibilities, cooperate with the Company in any defense, except
such matters in respect of which the Indemnified Parties counsel shall advise
the Indemnified Parties that such cooperation would impair a defense available
to the Indemnified Parties that is unavailable to the Company. In the event that
the Indemnified Party or Parties do not elect to retain their own counsel, the
Indemnifying Party or Parties shall at its or their own expense assume the
defense of such action, including the employment of counsel reasonably
acceptable to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that no Indemnifying or
Indemnified Party shall, without the prior written consent of Maxim, settle or
compromise any claim, or permit a default or consent to the entry of any
judgment in respect thereof, unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i)
includes, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant to all
Indemnified Parties of an unconditional release from all liability in respect of

such claim, and (ii) does not contain any factual or legal admission by or with
respect to an Indemnified Party or an adverse statement with respect to the
character, professionalism, expertise or reputation of any Indemnified Party or
any action or inaction of any Indemnified Party. In the event the Indemnifying
Party or Parties assume a defense hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall be
entitled to retain its own counsel in connection therewith and, except as
provided below, shall bear the fees and expenses of any such counsel, and
counsel to the Indemnified Party or Parties shall cooperate with such counsel to
the Indemnifying Party in connection with such proceeding. If the Indemnifying
Party or Parties assume the defense hereunder and an Indemnified Party
reasonably determines that there are or may be differing or additional defenses
available to the Indemnified Party which are not available to the Indemnifying
Party, or that there is or may be a conflict between the respective positions of
the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party in conducting the defense of
any action, then the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees and
expenses of any counsel retained by the Indemnified Party in connection with
such proceeding. All references to the Indemnified Party contained in this
Section 11(b) include, and extend to and protect with equal effect, any persons
who may control the Indemnified Party within the meaning of the Act, Section
20(a) of the Exchange Act or any applicable statute, any successor to the
Indemnified Party and each of its partners, officers, directors, employees,
agents and representatives. The indemnity agreements set forth in this Section
11 shall be in addition to any other obligations or liabilities of the
Indemnifying Party or Parties hereunder or at common law or otherwise.

     (c) If recovery is not available under the foregoing indemnification
provisions of this Section 11, for any reason other than as specified therein,
the party entitled to indemnification by the terms thereof shall be entitled to
contribution to losses, damages, liabilities and expenses of the nature
contemplated by such indemnification provisions. In determining the amount of
such contribution, there shall be considered the relative benefits received by
the Company on the one hand, and Maxim on the other hand from the Private
Placement (which shall be deemed to be the portion of the proceeds of the
Private Placement realized by each party), the parties' relative knowledge and
access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was
asserted, the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission, the
relative culpability of the parties, the relative benefits received by the
parties and any other equitable considerations appropriate under the
circumstances. No party shall be liable for contribution with respect to any
action or claim settled without its consent. Any party entitled to contribution
will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or
proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may
be made against another party or parties under this Section 11, notify such
party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so
notify such party or parties shall not relieve the party or parties from whom
contribution may be sought from any obligation it or they may have under this
Section 11 or otherwise. For purposes of this Section 11, each person, if any,
who controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Act or Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to
contribution as that party to this Placement Agreement.

     (d) In any claim for indemnification for United States Federal or state
securities law violations, the party seeking indemnification shall place before
the court the position of: (i) the SEC and (ii) if applicable, any state
securities commissioner or agency having jurisdiction with respect to the issue
of indemnification for securities law violations.
