     3. Registration Rights.

     (a) Effectiveness Deadline. The Company shall (i) within 45 days after the Closing
Date, file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a shelf-registration
statement under the Securities Act (x) under which the Offering Holders (as defined below) may sell
Offering Shares (as defined below) (y) that registers Offering Shares that are shares of Common
Stock in an amount that is no less than 130% of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
the conversion of all of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock or Series C
Preferred Stock whether or nor such shares are then convertible, (ii) use its reasonable best
efforts to have such registration statement declared effective within 120 days after the Closing
Date, and (iii) at all times until the Registration Termination Date (as defined below), the
Company shall maintain an effective shelf-registration statement (x) under which the Offering
Holders may sell Offering Shares that are shares of Common Stock, (y) if the Shares or Alternate
Preferred Stock are then convertible or have been converted into New Preferred Stock Units, under
which the Offering Holders may sell Offering Shares that are New Preferred Stock Units, and (z)
that covers a number of shares of Common Stock that is no less than (a) 130% of the number of
Unissued Offering Shares that are shares of Common Stock plus the number of Outstanding Offering
Shares that are shares of Common Stock and (b) if the Shares or Alternate Preferred Stock are then
convertible or have been converted into New Preferred Stock Units, 130% of the number of the
Unissued Offering Shares that are New Preferred Stock Units plus the number of Outstanding Offering
Shares that are New Preferred Stock Units. As used herein, “Offering Shares” means, as of
any time, (a) shares of Common Stock or New Preferred Stock Units previously issued upon conversion
of the Shares, Alternate Preferred Stock or New Preferred Stock Units or as a dividend or
redemption payment in respect of, the Shares or Alternate Preferred Stock and not previously sold
pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or in a brokers’
transaction (as defined in Rule 144(g) promulgated under the Securities Act) (the “Outstanding
Offering Shares”), and (b) shares of Common Stock then issuable upon conversion of the then
outstanding Shares, Alternate Preferred Stock or New Preferred Stock Units (assuming for this
purpose, that all such outstanding Shares, Alternate Preferred Stock or New Preferred Stock Units
are fully converted, whether or not then convertible, and that any Stockholder Approval required
for the issuance of such shares or units

3

 

has been obtained) and New Preferred Stock Units then issuable upon conversion of the then
outstanding Shares or Alternate Preferred Stock (the “Unissued Offering Shares”). The
Investors (so long as they hold any Shares, Alternate Preferred Stock, New Preferred Stock Units or
Offering Shares), together with their Affiliates (as defined below), and any Persons who hold any
Shares, Alternate Preferred Stock, New Preferred Stock Units or Offering Shares acquired from any
Offering Holder are hereafter referred to as “Offering Holders.” The Company agrees that
no Person other than Offering Holders shall be permitted to sell shares of Common Stock or other
securities pursuant to the shelf registration statement contemplated hereby. The Company will
include in any registration statement filed or maintained by the Company pursuant to this Section
3(a) (i) the information required under the Securities Act to be so included concerning the
Offering Holders, as provided by the Investors on the signature page hereto, including any changes
in such information or other information that may be provided by the Offering Holders in writing to
the Company from time to time, and (ii) a section entitled “Plan of Distribution,” substantially in
the form of Exhibit D hereto with such additions thereto as may be requested by an Offering
Holder, that describes the various procedures that may be used by the Offering Holders in the sale
of Offering Shares. As used herein, the term “Registration Termination Date” means the
first date after the first anniversary of the Closing upon which (x) the number of Offering Shares
is less than two percent (2%) of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding and (b) no
Offering Holder and its Affiliates holds Offering Shares that represent more than one percent (1%)
of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding unless all such Offering Shares are then
eligible for resale under Rule 144(k) promulgated under the Securities Act, and the term
“Transaction Documents” means this Agreement, the Certificate, Series C Certificate and the
New Preferred Stock Units Certificate.

     (b) Failure to Meet Effectiveness Deadline. In addition to any other rights or
remedies provided herein, if the registration statement referred to in Section 3(a) above has not
been filed with the SEC within 45 days after the Closing Date, declared effective by the SEC within
120 days after the Closing Date or the Company fails to maintain the effectiveness of such
registration statement pursuant to the terms contained in Section 4(d) of the Certificate, then the
Company shall pay an increased dividend rate on the Shares in accordance with the Certificate or
the Series C Certificate, as applicable. Payment of such increased dividend rate by the Company
shall be in addition to, and shall not limit, the other remedies available to the Investors in the
event that the Company does not comply with this Section 3 with respect to the filing and
effectiveness of the registration statement referred to herein.

     (c) Delay Rights. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3, the Company
may, upon written notice (such notice a “Delay Notice”) to any Offering Holder whose
Offering Shares are included in the registration statement, voluntarily suspend the effectiveness
of any such registration statement for a limited time, which suspension shall in no event be longer
than twenty-five (25) days in any three-month period, and no longer than sixty (60) days in any
twelve-month period, if (i) the Company has been advised by counsel or underwriters to the Company
that the offering of any Offering Shares pursuant to the registration statement would materially
adversely affect, or would be improper in view of (or improper without disclosure in a prospectus)
a proposed financing, a reorganization, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or similar
transaction involving the Company or (ii) if at any time the prospectus included in such
registration statement includes an untrue statement of material fact or omits to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in

4

 

light of circumstances then existing. Upon receipt of a Delay Notice, the Offering Holder
shall immediately suspend any and all sales of the Offering Shares until such time as the Company
notifies the Offering Holder that such suspension has been terminated and the registration
statement is again in effect with respect to the Offering Shares (such notice, an “Effective
Notice”). Upon disclosure of such information or the termination of the condition described
above, the Company shall provide prompt notice to the Offering Holders whose Offering Shares are
included in the registration statement, and shall promptly terminate any suspension of sales it has
put into effect and shall take such other actions to permit registered sales of registrable
securities as contemplated in this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to
the contrary, the Company’s obligation to include, or continue to include, Offering Shares in any
such registration statement under this Section 3 shall continue until the Registration Termination
Date.

     (d) Underwritten Offering.

     (i) Underwriting. Any Offering Holder or Offering Holders may at any time
request the ability (each a “Requesting Offering Holder”) to dispose of Offering
Shares under the registration statement pursuant to an underwritten offering by delivering
to the Company a notice setting forth such request (an “Underwriting Request”) and
the number of Offering Shares sought to be disposed of by such Requesting Offering Holder in
such underwritten offering. Within two (2) Business Days of the Company’s receipt of an
Underwriting Request, the Company shall deliver a notice (an “Underwriting Notice”)
to the Offering Holders other than the Requesting Offering Holder(s) (such other Offering
Holders, the “Additional Offering Holders”) notifying such Additional Offering
Holders of such Underwriting Request. Each of the Additional Offering Holders shall have
the right, exercisable by delivery of a notice (a “Piggy-Back Notice”) to the
Company and to the Requesting Offering Holder within five (5) Business Days of receipt of
the Underwriting Notice, to elect to dispose of Offering Shares in the underwritten
offering. Each Piggy-Back Notice shall set forth the number of Offering Shares the
applicable Additional Offering Holder desires to dispose of in the underwritten offering.
Each of the Requesting Offering Holders and Additional Offering Holders shall be entitled to
dispose in the underwritten offering of the number of Offering Shares set forth in its
Underwriting Request or Piggy-Back Notice, as applicable, provided, however, that if the
Managing Underwriters (as defined below) advise the Offering Holders that the number of
Offering Shares to be sold in the underwritten offering is greater than the number of
Offering Shares which can be offered in an orderly manner in such offering within a price
range acceptable to a holders of a majority of the Offering Shares sought to be disposed of
in the underwritten offering and without adversely affecting the marketability of the
offering (the “Offering Number”), no securities other than Offering Shares shall be
offered in such underwriting and the number of Offering Shares to be offered in the offering
shall be reduced pro rata based on the number of Offering Shares sought to be included in
the offering by the Requesting Offering Holders and the Additional Offering Holders to the
extent necessary so that the aggregate number of Offering Shares offered in such offering is
no greater than the Offering Number. As promptly as practicable after the expiration of the
five (5) Business Day period for delivery of Piggy-Back Notices, the Company
shall, at the request of such Offering Holder(s), enter into an underwriting agreement in
customary form with the book-running lead manager of such underwritten

5

 

offering (the “Managing Underwriter” or “Underwriters”), which shall
include, among other provisions, indemnities to the effect and to the extent provided in
Section 9, and shall take all such other actions as the Offering Holders or the Managing
Underwriter or Underwriters participating in such offering and sale may reasonably request
in order to expedite or facilitate such offering and sale (other than such actions which are
disruptive to the Company or require significant management accountability), including
providing reasonable availability of appropriate members of senior management of the Company
to provide customary due diligence assistance in connection with any offering and to
participate in customary “road show” presentations in connection with any underwritten
offerings in substantially the same manner as they would in an underwritten primary
registered public offering by the Company of its Common Stock, after taking into account the
reasonable business requirements of the Company in determining the scheduling and duration
of any road show. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to
effect an Underwritten Offering unless either the gross proceeds reasonably anticipated from
such offering is at least $25 million or the number of Offering Shares sought to be sold is
no less than ten percent (10%) of the number of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of
the Company.

     (ii) General Procedures. In connection with any underwritten offering under
this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to select the Managing Underwriter or
Underwriters. In connection with an underwritten offering, each Offering Holder desiring to
dispose of Offering Shares in the underwritten offering and the Company shall be obligated
to enter into an underwriting agreement that contains such representations, covenants,
indemnities and other rights and obligations as are customary in underwriting agreements for
firm commitment offerings of securities. No Offering Holder may participate in such
underwritten offering unless such Offering Holder agrees to sell its Offering Shares on the
basis provided in such underwriting agreement and completes and executes all questionnaires,
powers of attorney, indemnities and other documents reasonably required under the terms of
such underwriting agreement. Each Offering Holder may, at its option, require that any or
all of the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, the
Company to and for the benefit of such underwriters also be made to and for such Offering
Holder’s benefit (with respect to the Offering Shares of such Offering Holder being sold in
such underwritten offering) and that any or all of the conditions precedent to the
obligations of such underwriters under such underwriting agreement also be conditions
precedent to its obligations. No Offering Holder shall be required to make any
representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the underwriters other
than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Offering Holder and its
ownership of the securities being registered on its behalf and its intended method of
distribution and any other representation required by law. If any Offering Holder
disapproves of the terms of an underwriting, such Offering Holder may elect to withdraw
therefrom by notice to the Company and the Managing Underwriter.

the Securities Act for the account of an Offering Holder, the Company will:

untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated

whereby separate portfolio managers manage separate portions of such Investor’s assets and the
portfolio managers have no direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio
managers managing other portions of such Investor’s assets, the restriction set forth above shall

investment decision to purchase the shares of Series A Preferred Stock. As used herein, “Hedge
Restriction Period” means (x) any time at which the last reported trade price for the Common
Stock is less than 120% of the Benchmark Price then in effect, and (y) the period beginning three
(3) Trading Days after the Company delivers to the Investors a valid written notice that a dividend
payable with respect to the Shares will be paid in the form of Common Stock (provided that such
period shall begin no earlier than fifteen (15) Trading Days prior to the dividend payment date
with respect to such dividend and such notice shall not be delivered by the Company more than
twenty (20) Trading Days prior to the dividend payment date with respect to such dividend) and
ending on the dividend payment date with respect to such dividend; provided, that no Hedge
Restriction Period shall exist at any time during which the Common Stock is not listed on an
Eligible Market.

     (h) Such Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Company is not making and has not made any
representations or warranties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those
specifically set forth in the Transaction Documents.

     5. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company hereby represents and
warrants to each of the Investors, on and as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing
Date, as follows:

     (a) Organization and Qualification. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is an
entity duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of
incorporation, and is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in all jurisdictions
in which the failure to be so qualified would have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined herein).
Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has all requisite corporate power and authority (i) to own
and lease the properties and assets it currently owns and leases and it contemplates owning and
leasing and (ii) to conduct its activities as such activities are currently conducted and as
currently contemplated to be conducted. As used herein, the term “Material Adverse Effect”
means a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results of operations or
prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (but without giving effect to the
transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreements), it being understood that any event or
development after the date of this Agreement resulting from or arising out of any matters disclosed
in the SEC Reports or any Schedule hereto shall be considered in determining whether a Material
Adverse Effect has occurred or is likely to occur.

     (b) Capitalization. The authorized capital of the Company immediately prior to the
Closing Date will consist of: (i) 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value of $0.001 per
share (the “Preferred Stock”), of which 376,287 shares are designated as Series B Preferred
Stock, 19,714 of which are issued and outstanding as of the date hereof, and (ii) 300,000,000
shares of Common Stock, 80,712,369 of which are issued and outstanding as of the date hereof. All
outstanding shares of capital stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and have been issued in compliance with all applicable securities laws. Except for
shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of $81.25 million of convertible notes (the
“Convertible Notes”) issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreements dated as of
January 13, 2005 and an aggregate of 4,527,534 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
outstanding stock options or warrants, the Company has not issued any other options, warrants,
script rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or
securities, rights or obligations convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or entered
into any agreement giving any Person any right to subscribe for or acquire, any shares of its
capital stock, including but not limited to any rights which become effective upon the acquisition
of a specified percentage of the shares of any class or series of its capital stock, or securities
or rights convertible or exchangeable into shares of any class or series of its capital stock.
Except for customary adjustments as a result of stock dividends, stock splits, combinations of
shares, reorganizations, recapitalizations, reclassifications or other similar events, there are no
anti-dilution or price adjustment provisions contained in any security issued by the Company (or in
any agreement providing rights to security holders), and the issuance and sale of the Shares will
not obligate the Company to issue shares of Common Stock or other securities to any Person (other
than the Investors) or result in a right of any holder of securities to adjust the exercise,
conversion, exchange or reset price under such securities. To the knowledge of the Company, except
as specifically disclosed SEC Reports (as defined below), no Person or group of related Persons
beneficially owns (as determined pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), or has the right
to acquire, by agreement with or by obligation binding upon the Company, beneficial ownership in
excess of 5% of the outstanding Common Stock, ignoring for such

12

 

purposes any limitation on the number of shares of Common Stock that may be owned at any
single time.

     (c) Authorization; Enforcement. The Company has full corporate power and authority to
execute and deliver the Transaction Documents, to perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder
and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, but not limited to
the issuance and sale of the Shares. The execution and delivery by the Company of the Transaction
Documents, and the performance by it of its obligations hereunder or thereunder, including, but not
limited to, the issuance and sale of the Shares (including the issuance of shares of Series C
Preferred Stock in exchange for shares of Series A Preferred Stock as contemplated hereby and by
the Certificate), the authorization and reservation of a number of shares of Common Stock
sufficient to convert all Shares sold in the Offering into shares of Common Stock in accordance
with the terms of the Shares (without giving effect to any future adjustment in the Conversion
Price of the Shares) and the execution, delivery and performance of any other agreements and
instruments executed in connection herewith, have been duly authorized by all necessary action on
the part of the Company and no further consent or action is required by the Company, the Company’s
board of directors or its stockholders (except that that the Amex Approval Proposal in accordance
with Section 6(p) hereof is subject to the approval of the stockholders of the Company). Each of
the Transaction Documents constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company,
enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, and other laws of general application affecting enforcement
of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific
performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies, and (iii) to the extent the
indemnification provisions contained herein may be limited by applicable federal or state
securities laws.

     (d) Issuance of Shares. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred
Stock, when issued in accordance with the Transaction Documents, and the Offering Shares, when
issued upon conversion of the Shares, Alternate Preferred Stock or New Preferred Stock Units, and
the Alternate Preferred Stock and New Preferred Stock Units all will represent validly authorized,
duly issued and fully paid and nonassessable shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock of the
Company, as the case may be, free and clear of all Liens and shall not be subject to preemptive or
similar rights of stockholders, and the issuance thereof will be in full compliance with all
federal and state securities laws applicable to such issuance and sale.

     (e) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction
Documents, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby including the
issuance and sale of the Shares do not, and will not, (i) conflict with or violate any provision of
the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other
organizational or charter documents, (ii) conflict with, result in a breach or constitute a default
(or an event that 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 (with or without notice,
lapse of time or both) of, or require any offer to purchase or any prepayment of any debt or
security, or constitute a “change of control” or similar event or otherwise give rise to the right
to any other party to receive payments or benefits not otherwise required under, any agreement,
credit facility, debt or other instrument (evidencing a Company or Subsidiary debt or otherwise) or
other understanding to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or

13

 

by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is bound, or
affected, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction,
decree or other restriction of any court or governmental authority or self-regulatory organization.
The issuance of shares of Common Stock as dividends in respect of the Shares and the Alternate
Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents will not require approval
of stockholders under the rules of the American Stock Exchange.

     (f) Employee Matters. The execution and delivery of, and performance of the
transactions contemplated in the Transaction Documents will not (i) constitute an event under any
Company benefit plan, employee agreement, trust for the benefit of employees or loan to employees
that will or may result in any payment (whether of severance pay or otherwise), acceleration,
forgiveness of indebtedness, vesting, distribution, increase in benefits or obligation to fund
benefits with respect to any employee or (ii) result in the triggering or imposition of any
restrictions or limitations on the right of the Company or any of the Subsidiaries to amend or
terminate any Company benefit plan or employee agreement (or result in any adverse consequence for
any such action).

     (g) Subsidiaries. The Company has no direct or indirect Subsidiaries (as defined
below) other than those listed in Schedule 5(g) hereto. Except to the extent pledged as
collateral pursuant to the definitive agreements for the Debt Financing (as defined below), the
Company owns, directly or indirectly, all of the capital stock or comparable equity interests of
each Subsidiary free and clear of any lien, charge, claim, defect, imperfection of title, security
interest, encumbrance, right of first refusal or other restriction (collectively, “Liens”)
and all the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or comparable equity interest of each
Subsidiary are validly issued and are fully paid, non-assessable and free of preemptive and similar
rights. As used herein, the term “Subsidiary” means, with respect to any Person, any other
Person more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of which is owned or controlled, directly
or indirectly, by such specified Person or by one or more other Subsidiaries of such specified
Person, or by such specified Person and one or more other Subsidiaries of such specified Person.
For the purposes of this definition, “voting securities” means securities which ordinarily have
voting power for the election of directors (or other Persons having similar functions), whether at
all times or only so long as no senior class of securities has such voting power by reason of any
contingency, or other ownership interests ordinarily constituting a majority voting interest.

     (h) SEC Reports; Financial Statements. The Company has filed all reports required to
be filed by it under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act, including pursuant to Section
13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, since January 1, 2005 (the foregoing materials

authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory

nor any Subsidiary has received any written notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or
modification of any Material Permit.

forth herein, the Company shall be permitted to require the transferor to provide to the Company an
opinion of counsel selected by the transferor, the form and substance of which opinion shall be
reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require
registration under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company hereby consents
to and agrees to register on the books of the Company and with its Transfer Agent, without any such
legal opinion, except to the extent that the Transfer Agent requests such legal

investor” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act and provided, that, such
Affiliate does not request any removal of any existing legends on any certificate evidencing the
Shares or Offering Shares. Pursuant to the foregoing, the Investor acknowledges that the
certificates representing the Shares or Offering Shares acquired by the Investor shall bear a
restrictive legend substantially as follows:

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON
TRANSFER UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND STATE
SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, ASSIGNED,
TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS (I) REGISTERED UNDER
THE APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS (II) SUCH TRANSACTION IS PURSUANT TO RULE
144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (III) AN OPINION OF
COUNSEL, WHICH OPINION IS REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, HAS BEEN
DELIVERED TO THE COMPANY AND SUCH OPINION STATES THAT THE SHARES MAY BE
TRANSFERRED WITHOUT SUCH REGISTRATION.”

     (ii) Certificates evidencing the Shares and the Offering Shares shall not be required
to contain such legend or any other legend after (A) the Shares or the Offering Shares are
registered for resale under the Securities Act, (B) following any sale of such Shares or the
Offering Shares pursuant to Rule 144, (C) if such Shares or Offering Shares are eligible for
sale under Rule 144(k), or (D) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements
of the Securities Act (including controlling judicial interpretations and pronouncements
issued by the Staff of the SEC). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue the legal
opinion included in the Irrevocable Transfer Agent Instructions, in the form of Exhibit
E (the “Transfer Agent Instructions”), executed by the Company and delivered to
and acknowledged in writing by the transfer agent of the Company (the “Transfer
Agent”) on the date that the registration statement required pursuant to Section 3 is
first declared effective by the SEC (the “Effective Date”). Following the Effective
Date or at such earlier time as a legend is no longer required for certain Shares or
Offering Shares, the Company will no later than three (3) Trading Days (as defined below)
following the delivery by an Investor to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a legended
certificate representing such Shares or Offering Shares and an opinion of counsel to the
extent required by Section 6(a)(i), deliver or cause to be delivered to such Investor a
certificate representing such Shares or Offering Shares that is free from all restrictive
and other legends. The Company may not make any notation on its records or give
instructions to the Transfer Agent that enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in
this Section 6. The Company shall ensure that any future Transfer Agent of the Company
acknowledges in writing the Transfer Agent Instructions.

     (iii) If the Company shall fail for any reason or for no reason to issue to such holder
unlegended certificates within three (3) Trading Days of receipt of documents

necessary for the removal of legend set forth above (the “Deadline Date”),
then, in addition to all other remedies available to the Investors, if on or after the
Trading Day immediately following such three Business Day period, an Investor purchases (in
an open market transaction or otherwise) Shares or Offering Shares to deliver in
satisfaction of a sale by the holder of Shares or Offering Shares that the holder
anticipated receiving from the Company (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within
three Business Days after an Investor’s request and in the Investor’s discretion (the
“Request Date”), either (i) pay cash to the Investor in an amount equal to the
Investor’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Shares or
Offering Shares so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s
obligation to deliver such certificate (and to issue such Shares or Offering Shares) shall
terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Investor a certificate or
certificates representing such Shares or Offering Shares and pay cash to the Investor in an
amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number
of Shares or Offering Shares, times (B) the Closing Bid Price on the Deadline Date.
“Closing Bid Price” means, for any security as of any date, the last closing price
for such security on the American Stock Exchange or such other Eligible Market as is the
primary trading market for such shares, or, if such market begins to operate on an extended
hours basis and does not designate the closing bid price then the last bid price of such
security prior to 4:00:00 p.m., New York Time, as reported by Bloomberg, or, if such market
is not the principal trading market for such security, the last closing price of such
security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is
listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg, or if the foregoing do not apply, the last
closing price of such security in the over-the-counter market on the electronic bulletin
board for such security as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no closing bid 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 Pink Sheets LLC (formerly the National
Quotation Bureau, Inc.). If the Closing Bid Price cannot be calculated for a security on a
particular 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
Investor. For purposes of this Section 6(a)(iii), if the Company and the Investor are
unable to reach a determination as to fair market value within five (5) days after the
Request Date, the Company and the Investor shall submit the matter to an independent
investment banking firm of national reputation mutually acceptable to the Company and the
Investor (“Independent Investment Banking Firm”), which shall, within 20 days after
such submission, determine and report to the Company and the Investor the fair value
determined by the Independent Investment Banking Firm and such determination shall be
conclusive and binding on the Company and the Investor. The fees and disbursements of the
Independent Investment Banking Firm shall be payable by the Corporation. All such
determinations to be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock
combination or other similar transaction during the applicable calculation period.

     (iv) The Company will not object to and shall permit (except as prohibited by law) an
Investor to pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Shares in connection
with a bona fide margin agreement or other loan or financing arrangement secured by the
Shares or Offering Shares, and if required under the terms of such agreement, loan or
arrangement, the Company will not object to and shall permit (except

22

 

as prohibited by law) such Investor to transfer pledged or secured Shares or Offering
Shares to the pledges or secured parties. Except as required by law, such a pledge or
transfer would not be subject to approval of the Company, and no legal opinion of the
pledgee, secured party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith, and no notice
shall be required of such pledge. Each Investor acknowledges that the Company shall not be
responsible for any pledges relating to, or the grant of any security interest in, any of
the Shares or Offering Shares or for any agreement, understanding or arrangement between any
Investor and its pledgee or secured party. At the appropriate Investor’s expense, the
Company will execute and deliver such reasonable documentation as a pledgee or secured party
of Shares or Offering Shares may reasonably request in connection with a pledge or transfer
of the Shares or Offering, including the preparation and filing of any required prospectus
supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) of the Securities Act or other applicable provision of the
Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of Selling Stockholders under the Company’s
shelf-registration statement required pursuant to Section 3.

the Company and the Subsidiaries of the Company, any other related agreement, including the
Purchase Agreements and agreements for the Debt Financing.

     (d) Form D and Blue Sky. The Company agrees to file a Form D with respect to the
Shares as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to each Investor promptly after

upon conversion of the outstanding Shares, the Alternate Preferred Stock and the New Preferred
Stock Units. In the event that at any time the number of then authorized and unissued and reserved
shares of Common Stock is less than the number required to be in compliance with the foregoing the

issuable upon conversion of, or as dividend in respect of, Shares, the Alternate Preferred Stock or
New Preferred Stock Units, the Company shall take, in accordance with applicable law and its
articles of incorporation and by-laws, all action necessary to convene a special meeting of holders
of its capital stock as promptly as practicable but no later than sixty (60) days thereafter to

next two annual meetings of its stockholders, at four (4) additional special meetings of its
stockholders convened at the request of any holder or holders of 15% of the outstanding Shares and

which any such proposal is submitted for a vote of the stockholders of the Company, the board of
directors of the Company shall recommend to the stockholders that they vote in favor of such
proposal and the Company shall use its best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval
necessary for the approval and adoption of such proposal. The Company shall make all filings and
take all such other action as is necessary to cause any amendment contemplated by any such proposal
to become effective immediately after the approval and adoption thereof by the requisite vote of
the stockholders of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall initially
reserve 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock and shall not reduce this amount (except that such
amount may be reduced by any stock issuances in respect of the outstanding Shares, the Alternate
Preferred Stock and the New Preferred Stock Units). At all times after obtaining the requisite
stockholder approval for the Amex Approval Proposal and prior to the exchange of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock for shares of Series C Preferred Stock, the Company shall maintain a reserve of a
sufficient number of shares of Series

26

 

C Preferred Stock to allow for the full exchange of all outstanding shares of Series A
Preferred Stock for shares of Series C Preferred Stock.

least two (2) Trading Days prior to the filing or dissemination of any disclosure required by this
paragraph (i), provide a copy thereof to the Investors for their review. The Company and the
Investors shall consult with each other in issuing any press releases or otherwise making public
statements or filings and other communications with the SEC or any regulatory agency or Trading
Market with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither party shall issue any such
press release or otherwise make any such public statement, filing or other communication without
the prior consent of the other, except if such disclosure is required by law, in which case the
disclosing party shall promptly provide the other party with prior notice of such public statement,
filing or other communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly
disclose the name of any Investor, or include the name of any Investor in any press release without

Transaction Documents and the proceeds to be raised by the public offering of Common Stock with
respect to which the Company filed with the SEC, pursuant to Rule 424(b)(5) under the Securities
Act a preliminary prospectus supplements, dated October 11, 2006 (the “Public Offering”).

     (l) Notification of Breach. From the date hereof through the Closing Date, as
promptly as practicable, and in any event not later than five Trading Days after the Company
becomes aware thereof, the Company shall provide the Investors with written notice of (i) any
representation or warranty of the Company contained in this Agreement being untrue or inaccurate in
any material respect at any time from the date hereof to the Closing Date, or (ii) any failure of
the Company to comply with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement
to be complied with or satisfied by the Company under the Transaction Documents, the Debt Financing
or the Purchase Agreements; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this
Section 6(l) shall not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available to the Investors, or modify
in any way any disclosure made in this Agreement as of the date hereof.

preceding fiscal year, together with a certificate from a senior officer of the Company to
the effect that such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP
consistently applied during the periods involved (subject to year-end adjustments) and that
such financial statements fairly present the results of operations and changes in financial
position, stockholders’ equity, cash flows and financial position of the Company as of and
for the period then ended; provided, however, that the timely filing with the SEC of the
Company’s periodic report on Form 10-Q for such period shall be deemed to satisfy the
requirements of this Section 6(m)(i); and

     (ii) as soon as practicable and in any event no later than the day that a Form 10-K is
required to be filed by the Company with the SEC following the end of each fiscal year, a
consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of the end of such fiscal year and the related
consolidated statements of operations, statements of stockholders’ equity and cash flows for

year shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of this Section 6(m)(ii).

     (n) Expenses. The Company agrees to reimburse each of the Investors for all
reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses and other payments, including but not limited to legal
fees and disbursements, incurred or made in connection with the transactions contemplated by the

Company. If the Company receives any payment from Talisman Energy, Inc. (or any of its
Subsidiaries or its or their Affiliates) upon termination of one or more of the Purchase
Agreements, whether as liquidated damages or otherwise, then the Company shall pay the Investors
33% of any such payment, with the payment to be prorated among the Investors based upon the amounts
of their commitments as set forth opposite each Investor’s name on Schedule A hereto. This
covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

     (p) Exchange Proposal. The Company shall take, in accordance with applicable law and

Company shall resubmit such proposal for stockholder approval and adoption at least at all future
annual meetings of its stockholders, and at up to two (2) additional special meetings of its
stockholders per year convened at the request of any holder or holders of 15% of the outstanding

to, be imposed on or otherwise be incurred by any former, current or future director, officer,
employee, agent, general or limited partner, manager, member, stockholder, or affiliate of any of
the Investors or any former, current or future director, officer, employee, agent, general or
limited partner, manager, member, stockholder or affiliate of any of the foregoing, as such, for
any obligations of the Investors under the Transaction Documents or any documents or instrument
delivered in connection herewith or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of such

Stock Units or Alternate Preferred Stock or Offering Shares such that the prohibitions,
restrictions, limitations and conditions of Sections 78.438 to 78.442 of the NRS do not apply to
such transferee of any Shares, any New Preferred Stock Units or Alternate Preferred Stock. Until

32

and shall have delivered its respective Subscription Amount in accordance with Schedule A

     (b) Representations and Warranties; Covenants. The representations and warranties of
the Investors contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct (without giving effect to any

date (except that representations and warranties of the Investors expressly made as of a specified

     9. Indemnification.

     (a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall, notwithstanding any
termination of this Agreement and notwithstanding any other remedy, indemnify, defend, protect and
hold harmless each Investor, the stockholders, owners, officers, directors, partners, members,
agents, employees and Affiliates of each of them, each Person who controls any such Investor
(within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the
stockholders, owners, officers, directors, partners, members, agents, employees and Affiliates of
each such controlling Person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against
any and all Losses, promptly as incurred, arising out of or relating to (i) any misrepresentation
or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or any
certificate, including officer’s certificate, contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any breach of
any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company contained in this Agreement or any Transaction
Document or any certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (iii) any cause
of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnified Party (as defined below) by a
third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company),
arising out of or resulting from (x) execution and delivery of this Agreement, and the performance
or enforcement of the Transaction Documents or any certificate, instrument or document contemplated
hereby or thereby, (y) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or
indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Shares, or (z) the status of Indemnified Party
as holder of the Shares, Alternative Preferred Stock or Offering Shares, (iv) any claim for
placement agent’s fees, financial advisory fees, or brokers’ commissions (other than for persons
engaged by any Investor or its investment advisor) arising out of the issuance of the Shares or
Offering Shares pursuant to the Transaction Documents, (v) any untrue or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact contained in the registration statement, any prospectus or any form of Company
prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto, in any Company preliminary prospectus, or any
free writing prospectus utilized in connection therewith, or arising out of or relating to any
omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto,
or

33

 

any free writing prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) or
in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or
other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which the Offering Shares are offered not misleading,
except to the extent, but only to the extent, that (A) such untrue statements, alleged untrue
statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based solely upon information regarding such
Investor furnished in writing to the Company by such Investor for use therein, or to the extent
that such information relates to such Investor or such Investor’s proposed method of distribution
of Offering Shares, or (B) in the case of an occurrence of an event of the type specified in
Section 3(e)(vi)(y)-(z), the use by such Investor of an outdated or defective prospectus after the
Company has notified such Investor in writing that the prospectus is outdated or defective and
prior to the receipt by such Investor of the Effective Notice pursuant to Section 3(c), (vi) any
violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other
law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder
relating to the offer or sale of the Offering Shares pursuant to a registration statement, or (vii)
any violation of this Agreement. The Company shall notify the Investors promptly of the
institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding of which the Company is aware in connection with
the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

     (b) Indemnification by Investors. Each Investor shall, severally and not jointly,
indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each Person
who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of
the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling Persons, to
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses (as determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment not subject to appeal or review) arising solely
out of any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement, any
prospectus, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or any free
writing prospectus utilized in connection therewith, or arising solely out of any omission of a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the
case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, or any free writing prospectus,
in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading to the extent, but
only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information so
furnished by such Investor to the Company specifically for inclusion in such registration statement
or such prospectus or to the extent that (i) such untrue statements or omissions are based solely
upon information regarding such Investor furnished to the Company by such Investor in writing
expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Investor or such
Investor’s proposed method of distribution of Offering Shares and was reviewed and expressly
approved by such Investor expressly for use in the registration statement, such prospectus or such
form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (ii) in the case of an occurrence
of an event of the type specified in Section 3(e)(vi)(y)-(z), the use by such Investor of an
outdated or defective prospectus after the Company has notified such Investor in writing that the
prospectus is outdated or defective and prior to the receipt by such Investor of Effective Notice
pursuant to Section 3(c). In no event shall the liability of any selling Investor hereunder be
greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Investor upon the
sale of the Offering Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation.

34

 

     (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. If any action, suit, investigation, or
proceeding (including, without limitation, an investigation or partial proceeding, such as a
deposition), whether commenced in writing (“Proceeding”) shall be brought or asserted
against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an “Indemnified Party”), such
Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought (the
“Indemnifying Party”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense
thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and
the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided, that
the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party
of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that
it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not
subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have proximately and materially
adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

     An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding
and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at
the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (i) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in
writing to pay such fees and expenses; or (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to
assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (iii) the named parties to any such Proceeding
(including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party,
and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely
to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party
(in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects
to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall
not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the
Indemnifying Party). It being understood, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in
connection with any one such Proceeding be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one
separate firm of attorneys at any time for all Indemnified Parties, which firm shall be appointed
by a majority of the Indemnified Parties; provided, however, that in the case a single firm of
attorneys would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests of conflicts
between such Indemnified Parties and any other party represented by such counsel in such Proceeding
or otherwise, then the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of one
additional firm of attorneys with respect to such Indemnified Parties. The Indemnifying Party
shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior
written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in
respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional
release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such
Proceeding.

     All fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses to the
extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner
not inconsistent with this Section 9) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within
ten (10) Trading Days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party; provided, that the
Indemnified Party shall reimburse all such fees and expenses to the extent it is finally judicially
determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder.

35

 

     (d) Contribution. If any indemnification to which an Indemnified Party is entitled
under the terms of Section 9(a) or (b) is unavailable to such Indemnified Party (by reason of
public policy or otherwise) or indemnification is otherwise available to an Indemnified Party
pursuant to Section 9(c), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified
Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such
Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying
Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted
in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such
Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to
information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action,
statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be
deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9(c), any reasonable attorneys’
or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to
the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification
provided for in this Section 9 was available to such party in accordance with its terms. As used
herein, the term “Losses” means any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities,
settlement costs and expenses, including, without limitation, costs of preparation and reasonable
attorneys’ fees.

     The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to
this Section 9(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that
does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding
paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 9, no Investor shall be required to
contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds actually
received by such Investor from the sale of the Offering Shares subject to the Proceeding exceeds
the amount of any damages that such Investor has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such
untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

     The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 9 are in addition to any
liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties, except that, in the
event that the Closing occurs, the right to indemnification pursuant to this Section 9 shall be the
sole remedy for breaches of representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any
certificate contemplated hereby.

     10. Survival. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any
certificate, including officer’s certificate, contemplated hereby or thereby, shall survive the
Closing until the third anniversary of the Closing Date and shall thereupon expire, except to the
extent that a notice of breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty is delivered to the
party that breached such representation or warranty or made prior to such third anniversary. The

36

 

agreements and covenants contained in this Agreement or any Transaction Document or any
certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby shall survive the Closing.

     11. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in

the Company nor may any duties hereunder be delegated by the Company.

     13. Amendment. Prior to the Closing, this Agreement may not be modified, amended,
waived or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom
enforcement of such modification, waiver or termination is sought (except that two-thirds of the
Investors based on their Commitment Amounts may act on behalf of all Investors, but only to the
extent such modification, amendment, waiver or termination does not adversely affect any Investor
in a manner different from other Investors). After the Closing, this Agreement may not be modified,
amended, waived or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom
enforcement of such modification, waiver or termination is sought (except that holders of
two-thirds of the Offering Shares may act on behalf of all Investors and other Offering Holders,
but only to the extent such modification, amendment, waiver or termination does not adversely
affect any Investor or Offering Holder in a manner different from other Investors).

     14. Binding Effect. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their heirs, executors, administrators,
successors,

37

 

legal representatives and assigns, and the agreements, representations, warranties and
acknowledgments contained herein shall be deemed to be made by and be binding upon such heirs,
executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and assigns.

     15. Entire Agreement. The Transaction Documents, together with the Exhibits, Annexes
and Schedules thereto, constitute the entire agreement of the Investors and the Company relating to
the matters contained herein, superseding all prior written and prior or contemporaneous oral
negotiations, understandings, arrangements, contracts or agreements.

     16. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law
or any other principle that could require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.
Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to submit to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and of the United States of America,
in each case located in the County of New York, for any Litigation arising out of or relating to
this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (and agrees not to commence any civil,
criminal or administrative action, suit, claim, notice, hearing, examination, inquiry, proceeding
or investigation at law or in equity or by or before any court, arbitrator or similar panel,
governmental instrumentality or other agency (“Litigation”) relating thereto except in such
courts), and further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S.
registered mail to its respective address set forth in this Agreement, or such other address as may
be given by one or more parties to the other parties in accordance with the notice provisions of
Section 11, shall be effective service of process for any Litigation brought against it in any such
court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to
the laying of venue of any Litigation arising out of this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby in the courts of the State of New York or the United States of America, in each
case located in the County of New York, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives
and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such Litigation brought in any such
court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

     17. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to
Investor or any circumstance shall be held invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of
this Agreement and the application of such provision to other subscriptions or circumstances shall
not be affected thereby and shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law.

     18. Independent Nature of Investors’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each
Investor hereunder are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no
Investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other
Investor hereunder. The decision of each Investor to purchase Shares pursuant to this Agreement
has been made by such Investor independently of any other Investor and independently of any
information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, financial condition, results of
operations, assets properties, liabilities, or prospects of the Company which may have been made or
given by any other Investor or by any agent or employee of any other Investor, and no Investor or
any of its agents or employees shall have any liability to any Investor (or any other person)
relating to or arising from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. Nothing
contained herein, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to
constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of

38

 

entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a
group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Investor
acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such Investor in connection with making
its investment hereunder and that no other Investor will be acting as agent of such Investor in
connection with monitoring its investment hereunder. Each Investor shall be entitled to
independently protect and enforce its rights, including without limitation the rights arising out
of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an
additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

     19. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated (i) at any time prior to the
Closing Date by mutual agreement of the Company and two-thirds of Investors (based on their
Commitment Amounts), (ii) upon the termination of the Purchase Agreements, or (iii) by two-thirds
of the Investors if the Closing Date has not occurred on or before November 3, 2006.
Notwithstanding termination of this Agreement, Sections 6(n) (Expenses), 6(o) (Financing Fee), 9
(Indemnification) and 16 (Governing Law), shall remain in full force and effect.

     20. Headings. The headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience and
identification only and are not intended to describe, interpret, define, or limit the scope, extent
or intent of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

     21. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each
of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together
shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement.

     22. Specific Performance. The parties acknowledge that money damages are not an
adequate remedy for violations of this Agreement and that any party may, in its sole discretion,
apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance or injunctive or such other
relief as such court may deem just and proper in order to enforce this Agreement or prevent any
violation hereof and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each party waives any objection to
the imposition of such relief, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is
entitled at law or in equity.

     23. Interpretation. The headings contained in this Agreement, in any Annex, Exhibit
or Schedule hereto are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement. Any matter set forth on any Schedule shall be deemed set forth
on all other Schedules if, in each case, it is reasonably apparent from the information disclosed
that another schedule is also applicable. Except when the context requires otherwise, any
reference in this Agreement to any Section, clause, Annex, Schedule or Exhibit shall be to the
Sections and clauses of, and Schedules, Annexes and Exhibits to, this Agreement. The words
“include,” “includes” and “including” are deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.”
Any reference to the masculine, feminine or neuter gender shall include such other genders and any
reference to the singular or plural shall include the other, in each case unless the context
otherwise requires. All Annexes, Exhibits and Schedules attached hereto or referred to herein are
hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein. When a
reference is made in this Agreement to a Section, Annex, Exhibit or Schedule, such reference shall
be to a Section of, or an Annex, Exhibit or Schedule to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.

Exhibit 4.2

SOURCEFIRE, INC.

2002 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

1. Establishment, Purpose and Types of Awards

     Sourcefire,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby establishes the Sourcefire,
Inc. 2002 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN (the “Plan”). The purpose of the Plan is to promote the long-term
growth and profitability of the Company by (i) providing key people with incentives to improve
stockholder value and to contribute to the growth and financial success of the Company, and (ii)
enabling the Company to attract, retain and reward the best-available persons.

     The Plan permits the granting of stock options (including incentive stock options qualifying under
Code section 422 and nonqualified stock options), stock appreciation rights, restricted or
unrestricted stock awards, phantom stock, performance awards, other stock-based awards, or any
combination of the foregoing.

2. Definitions

     Under this Plan, except where the context otherwise indicates, the following definitions
apply:

     (a) “Administrator” means the Board or committee(s) appointed by the Board that administers
the Plan in accordance with Section 3 hereof.

     (b) “Affiliate” means any entity, whether now or hereafter existing, which controls, is
controlled by, or is under common control with, the Company (including, but not limited to, joint
ventures, limited liability companies, and partnerships). For this purpose, “control” shall mean
ownership of 50% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock or
interests of the entity.

     (c) “Award” means any stock option, stock appreciation right, stock award, phantom stock
award, performance award, or other stock-based award.

     (d) “Board” means the Board of Directors of the Company.

     (e) “Change in Control” means: (i) the acquisition (other than from the Company) in one or
more transactions by any Person, as defined in this Section 2(e), of the beneficial ownership
(within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended) of 50% or more of (A) the then outstanding shares of the securities of the Company, or (B)
the combined voting power of the then outstanding securities of the Company entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors (the “Company Voting
Stock”); (ii) the closing of a sale or
other conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or (iii) the effective
time of any merger, share exchange, consolidation, or other business combination of the Company if
immediately after such transaction persons who hold a majority of the outstanding voting securities
entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the surviving entity (or the entity
owning 100% of such surviving entity) are not persons who, immediately prior to such transaction,
held the Company Voting Stock; provided, however, that a Change in Control shall not
include (Y) a public offering of capital stock of the Company or (Z) any transaction pursuant to
which shares of capital stock of the Company are transferred or issued to any trust, charitable
organization, foundation, family partnership or other entity controlled directly or indirectly by,
or established for the benefit of, Martin Roesch or his immediate family members (including
spouses, children,
grandchildren, parents, and siblings, in each case to include adoptive relations), or transferred
to any such immediate family members. For purposes of this Section 2(e), a “Person” means any
individual, entity or group within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3)

 

 

or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, other than: employee benefit plans
sponsored or maintained by the Company and corporations controlled by the Company.

     (f) “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any regulations
promulgated thereunder.

     (g) “Common Stock” means shares of common stock of the Company, par value of $.001 per
share.

     (h) “Fair Market Value” means, with respect to a share of the Company’s Common Stock for any
purpose on a particular date, the value determined by the Administrator in good faith. However, if
the Common Stock is registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, and listed for trading on a national exchange or market,
“Fair Market Value” means, as
applicable, (i) either the closing price or the average of the high and low sale price on the
relevant date, as determined in the Administrator’s discretion, quoted on the New York Stock
Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, or the Nasdaq National Market; (ii) the last sale price on
the relevant date quoted on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market; (iii) the average of the high bid and low
asked prices on the relevant date quoted on the Nasdaq OTC Bulletin Board Service or by the
National Quotation Bureau, Inc. or a comparable service as determined in the Administrator’s
discretion; or (iv) if the Common Stock is not quoted by any of the above, the average of the
closing bid and asked prices on the relevant date furnished by a professional market maker for the
Common Stock, or by such other source, selected by the Administrator. If no public trading of the
Common Stock occurs on the relevant date but the shares are so listed, then Fair Market Value shall
be determined as of the next preceding date on which trading of the Common Stock does occur. For
all purposes under this Plan, the term “relevant date” as used in this Section 2(h) means either
the date as of which Fair Market Value is to be determined or the next preceding date on which
public trading of the Common Stock occurs, as determined in the Administrator’s discretion.

     (i) “Grant Agreement” means a written document memorializing the terms and conditions of an Award
granted pursuant to the Plan and shall incorporate the terms of the Plan.

3. Administration

     (a) Administration of the Plan. The Plan shall be administered by the Board or by
such committee or committees as may be appointed by the Board from time to time (the Board,
committee or committees hereinafter referred to as the “Administrator”).

     (b) Powers of the Administrator. The Administrator shall have all the powers vested in it by
the terms of the Plan, such powers to include authority, in its sole and absolute discretion, to
grant Awards under the Plan, prescribe Grant Agreements evidencing such Awards and establish
programs for granting Awards.

     The Administrator shall have full power and authority to take all other actions necessary to carry
out the purpose and intent of the Plan, including, but not limited to, the authority to: (i)
determine the eligible persons to whom, and the time or times at which Awards shall be granted;
(ii) determine the types of Awards to be granted; (iii) determine the number of shares to be
covered by or used for reference purposes for each Award; (iv) impose such terms, limitations,
restrictions and conditions upon any such Award as the Administrator shall deem appropriate; (v)
modify, amend, extend or renew outstanding Awards, or accept the surrender of outstanding Awards
and substitute new Awards (provided however, that, except as provided in Section 6 or 7(d) of the
Plan, any modification that would materially adversely affect any outstanding Award shall not be
made without the consent of the

 

 

holder); (vi) accelerate or otherwise change the time in which an Award may be exercised or becomes
payable and to waive or accelerate the lapse, in whole or in part, of any restriction or condition
with respect to such Award, including, but not limited to, any restriction or condition with
respect to the vesting or exercisability of an Award following termination of any grantee’s
employment or other relationship with the Company; (vii) establish objectives and conditions, if
any, for earning Awards and determining whether Awards will be paid after the end of a performance
period; and (viii) for any purpose, including but not limited to, qualifying for preferred tax
treatment under foreign tax laws or otherwise complying with the regulatory requirements of local
or foreign jurisdictions, to establish, amend, modify, administer or terminate sub-plans, and
prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to such sub-plans.

     The Administrator shall have full power and authority, in its sole and absolute discretion, to
administer and interpret the Plan, Grant Agreements and all other documents relevant to the Plan
and Awards issued thereunder, and to adopt and interpret such rules, regulations, agreements,
guidelines and instruments for the administration of the Plan and for the conduct of its business
as the Administrator deems necessary or advisable.

     (c) Non-Uniform Determinations. The Administrator’s determinations under the Plan
(including without limitation, determinations of the persons to receive Awards, the form, amount
and timing of such Awards, the terms and provisions of such Awards and the Grant Agreements
evidencing such Awards) need not be uniform and may be made by the Administrator selectively among
persons who receive, or are eligible to receive, Awards under the Plan, whether or not such persons
are similarly situated.

     (d) Limited Liability. To the maximum extent permitted by law, no member of the
Administrator shall be liable for any action taken or decision made in good faith relating to the
Plan or any Award thereunder.

     (e) Indemnification. To the maximum extent permitted by law and by the Company’s charter
and by-laws, the members of the Administrator shall be indemnified by the Company in respect of all
their activities under the Plan.

     (f) Effect of Administrator’s Decision. All actions, taken and decisions and determinations
made by the Administrator on all matters relating to the Plan pursuant to the powers vested in it
hereunder shall be in the Administrator’s sole and absolute discretion and shall be conclusive and
binding on all parties concerned, including the Company, its stockholders, any participants in the
Plan and any other employee, consultant, or director of the Company, and their respective
successors in interest.

4. Shares Available for the Plan

     Subject to adjustments as provided in Section 7(d) of the Plan, the shares of Common Stock
that may be issued with respect to Awards granted under the Plan shall not exceed an aggregate of
750,000 shares of Common Stock. The Company shall reserve such number of shares for Awards under
the Plan, subject to adjustments as provided in Section 7(d) of the Plan. If any Award, or portion
of an Award, under the Plan expires or terminates unexercised, becomes unexercisable or is
forfeited or otherwise terminated, surrendered or canceled as to any shares, or if any shares of
Common Stock are surrendered to the Company in connection with any Award (whether or not such
surrendered shares were acquired pursuant to any Award), or if any shares are withheld by the
Company, the shares subject to such Award and the surrendered and withheld shares shall thereafter
be available for further Awards under the Plan; provided, however, that any such shares that are
surrendered to or withheld by the Company in connection with any Award or that are otherwise
forfeited after

 

 

issuance shall not be available for purchase pursuant to incentive stock options intended to
qualify under Code section 422.

5. Participation

     Participation in the Plan shall be open to all employees, officers, and directors of, and
other individuals providing bona fide services to or for, the Company, or of any Affiliate of the
Company, as may be selected by the Administrator from time to time. The Administrator may also
grant Awards to individuals in connection with hiring, retention or otherwise, prior to the date
the individual first performs services for the Company or an Affiliate provided that such Awards
shall not become vested or exercisable prior to the date the individual first commences performance
of such services.

6. Awards

     The Administrator, in its sole discretion, establishes the terms of all Awards granted under
the Plan. Awards may be granted individually or in tandem with other types of Awards. All Awards
are subject to the terms and conditions provided in the Grant Agreement. The Administrator may
permit or require a recipient of an Award to defer such individual’s receipt of the payment of cash
or the delivery of Common Stock that would otherwise be due to such individual by virtue of the
exercise of, payment of, or lapse or waiver of restrictions respecting, any Award. If any such
payment deferral is required or permitted, the Administrator shall, in its sole discretion,
establish rules and procedures for such payment deferrals.

     (a) Stock Options. The Administrator may from time to time grant to eligible participants
Awards of incentive stock options as that term is defined in Code section 422 or nonqualified stock
options; provided, however, that Awards of incentive stock options shall be limited to employees of
the Company or of any current or hereafter existing “parent corporation” or “subsidiary
corporation,” as defined in Code sections 424(e) and (f), respectively, of the Company. Options
intended to qualify as incentive stock options under Code section 422 must have an exercise price
at least equal to Fair Market Value as of the date of grant, but nonqualified stock options may be
granted with an exercise price less than Fair Market Value. No stock option shall be an incentive
stock option unless so designated by the Administrator at the time of grant or in the Grant
Agreement evidencing such stock option.

     (b) Stock Appreciation Rights. The Administrator may from time to time grant to eligible
participants Awards of Stock Appreciation Rights (“SAR”). An SAR entitles the grantee to receive,
subject to the provisions of the Plan and the Grant Agreement, a payment
having an aggregate value equal to the product of (i) the excess of (A) the Fair Market Value on
the exercise date of one share of Common Stock over (B) the base price per share specified in the
Grant Agreement, times (ii) the number of shares specified by the SAR, or portion thereof, which is
exercised. Payment by the Company of the amount receivable upon any exercise of an SAR may be made
by the delivery of Common Stock or cash, or any combination of Common Stock and cash, as determined
in the sole discretion of the Administrator. If upon settlement of the exercise of an SAR a
grantee is to receive a portion of such payment in shares of Common Stock, the number of shares
shall be determined by dividing such portion by the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on
the exercise date. No fractional shares shall be used for such payment and the Administrator shall
determine whether cash shall be given in lieu of such fractional shares or whether such fractional
shares shall be eliminated.

     (c) Stock Awards. The Administrator may from time to time grant restricted or unrestricted
stock Awards to eligible participants in such amounts, on such terms and conditions, and for such
consideration, including no consideration or such minimum consideration as may be required by law,
as it shall determine. A stock Award may be paid in Common Stock, in cash, or in a combination of
Common Stock and cash, as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator.

 

 

     (d) Phantom Stock. The Administrator may from time to time grant Awards to eligible
participants denominated in stock-equivalent units (“phantom stock”) in such amounts and on such
terms and conditions as it shall determine. Phantom stock units granted to a participant shall be
credited to a bookkeeping reserve account solely for accounting purposes and shall not require a
segregation of any of the Company’s assets. An Award of phantom stock may be settled in Common
Stock, in cash, or in a combination of Common Stock and cash, as determined in the sole discretion
of the Administrator. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Grant Agreement, the grantee
shall not have the rights of a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock represented
by a phantom stock unit solely as a result of the grant of a phantom stock unit to the grantee.

     (e) Performance Awards. The Administrator may, in its discretion, grant performance awards
which become payable on account of attainment of one or more performance goals established by the
Administrator. Performance awards may be paid by the delivery of Common Stock or cash, or any
combination of Common Stock and cash, as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator.
Performance goals established by the Administrator may be based on the Company’s or an Affiliate’s
operating income or one or more other business criteria selected by the Administrator that apply to
an individual or group of individuals, a business unit, or the Company or an Affiliate as a whole,
over such performance period as the Administrator may designate.

     (f) Other Stock-Based Awards. The Administrator may from time to time grant other
stock-based awards to eligible participants in such amounts, on such terms and conditions, and for
such consideration, including no consideration or such minimum consideration as may be required by
law, as it shall determine. Other stock-based awards may be denominated in cash, in Common Stock or
other securities, in stock-equivalent units, in stock appreciation units, in securities or
debentures convertible into Common Stock, or in any combination of the foregoing and may be paid in
Common Stock or other securities, in cash, or in a combination of Common Stock or other securities
and cash, all as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator.

7. Miscellaneous

     (a) Withholding of Taxes. Grantees and holders of Awards shall pay to the Company or its
Affiliate, or make provision satisfactory to the Administrator for payment of, any taxes required
to be withheld in respect of Awards under the Plan no later than the date of the event creating the
tax liability. The Company or its Affiliate may, to the extent permitted by law, deduct any such
tax obligations from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the grantee or holder of an Award.
In the event that payment to the Company or its Affiliate of such tax obligations is made in shares
of Common Stock, such shares shall be valued at Fair Market Value on the applicable date for such
purposes.

     (b) Loans. The Company or its Affiliate may make or guarantee loans to grantees to assist
grantees in exercising Awards and satisfying any withholding tax obligations.

     (c) Transferability. Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, and in any event
in the case of an incentive stock option or a stock appreciation right granted with respect to an
incentive stock option, no Award granted under the Plan shall be transferable by a grantee
otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Unless otherwise determined by
the Administrator in accord with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence, an Award may
be exercised during the lifetime of the grantee, only by the grantee or, during the period the
grantee is under a legal disability, by the grantee’s guardian or legal representative.

 

 

     (d) Adjustments for Corporate Transactions and Other Events.

          (i) Stock Dividend, Stock Split and Reverse Stock Split. In the event of a stock dividend of, or
stock split or reverse stock split affecting, the Common Stock, (A) the maximum number of shares of
such Common Stock as to which Awards may be granted under this Plan, as provided in Section 4 of
the Plan, and (B) the number of shares covered by and the exercise price and other terms of
outstanding Awards, shall, without further action of the Board, be adjusted to reflect such event
unless the Board determines, at the time it approves such stock dividend, stock split or reverse
stock split, that no such adjustment shall be made. The Administrator may make adjustments, in its
discretion, to address the treatment of fractional shares and fractional cents that arise with
respect to outstanding Awards as a result of the stock dividend, stock split or reverse stock
split.

          (ii) Non-Change in Control Transactions. Except with respect to the transactions set forth in
Section 7(d)(i), in the event of any change affecting the Common Stock, the Company or its
capitalization, by reason of a spin-off, split-up, dividend, recapitalization, merger,
consolidation or share exchange, other than any such change that is part of a transaction resulting
in a Change in Control of the Company, the Administrator, in its discretion and without the consent
of the holders of the Awards, shall make (A) appropriate adjustments to the maximum number and kind
of shares reserved for issuance or with respect to which Awards may be granted under the Plan, as
provided in Section 4 of the Plan; and (B) any adjustments in outstanding Awards, including but not
limited to modifying the number, kind and price of securities subject to Awards.

          (iii) Change in Control Transactions. In the event of any transaction resulting in a Change in
Control of the Company, outstanding stock options and SAR’s under this Plan will terminate upon the
effective time of such Change in Control unless provision is made in connection with the
transaction for the continuation or assumption of such Awards by, or for the substitution of the
equivalent awards of, the surviving or successor entity or a parent thereof. In the event of such
termination, the holders of stock options and SAR’s under the Plan will be permitted, for a period
of at least twenty days prior to the effective time of the Change in Control, to exercise all
portions of such Awards that are then exercisable or which become exercisable upon or prior to the
effective time of the Change in Control; provided, however, that any such exercise of any portion
of such an Award which becomes exercisable as a result of such Change in Control shall be deemed to
occur immediately prior to the effective time of such Change in Control.

          (iv) Unusual or Nonrecurring Events. The Administrator is authorized to make, in its discretion and
without the consent of holders of Awards, adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the
criteria included in, Awards in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the
Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any Affiliate, or of changes in applicable
laws, regulations, or accounting principles, whenever the Administrator determines that such
adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or
potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan.

     (e) Substitution of Awards in Mergers and Acquisitions. Awards may be granted under the
Plan from time to time in substitution for Awards held by employees, officers, consultants or
directors of entities who become or are about to become employees, officers, consultants or
directors of the Company or an Affiliate as the result of a merger or consolidation of the
employing entity with the Company or an Affiliate, or the acquisition by the Company or an
Affiliate of the assets or stock of the employing entity. The terms and conditions of any
substitute Awards so granted may vary from the terms and conditions set forth herein to the extent
that the Administrator deems appropriate at the time of grant to conform the substitute Awards to
the provisions of the awards for which they are substituted.

     (f) Other Agreements. As a condition precedent to the grant of any Award under the Plan,
the exercise pursuant to such an Award, or to the delivery of certificates for shares issued
pursuant to any Award,

 

 

the Administrator may require the grantee or the grantee’s successor or permitted transferee, as
the case may be, to become a party to a stock restriction agreement, shareholders’ agreement,
voting trust agreement or other agreements regarding the Common Stock of the Company in such
form(s) as the Administrator may determine from time to time.

     (g) Termination, Amendment and Modification of the Plan. The Board may terminate, amend or modify
the Plan or any portion thereof at any time.

     (h) Non-Guarantee of Employment or Service. Nothing in the Plan or in any Grant Agreement
thereunder shall confer any right on an individual to continue in the service of the Company or
shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate such service at any time with
or without cause or notice and whether or not such termination results in (i) the failure of any
Award to vest; (ii) the forfeiture of any unvested or vested portion of any Award; and/or (iii) any
other adverse effect on the individual’s interests under
the Plan.

     (i) Compliance with Securities Laws; Listing and Registration. If at any time the Administrator
determines that the delivery of Common Stock under the Plan is or may be unlawful under the laws of
any applicable jurisdiction, or federal or state securities laws, the right to exercise an Award or
receive shares of Common Stock pursuant to an Award shall be suspended until the Administrator
determines that such delivery is lawful. The Company shall have no obligation to effect any
registration or qualification of the Common Stock under federal or state laws.

     The Company may require that a grantee, as a condition to exercise of an Award, and as a condition
to the delivery of any share certificate, make such written representations (including
representations to the effect that such person will not dispose of the Common Stock so acquired in
violation of federal or state securities laws) and furnish such information as may, in the opinion
of counsel for the Company, be appropriate to permit the Company to issue the Common Stock in
compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. The stock certificates for any shares
of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Plan may bear a legend restricting transferability of the
shares of Common Stock unless such shares are registered or an exemption from registration is
available under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws.

     (j) No Trust or Fund Created. Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create
a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and a grantee
or any other person. To the extent that any grantee or other person acquires a right to receive
payments from the Company pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the right of
any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

     (k) Governing Law. The validity, construction and effect of the Plan, of Grant Agreements entered
into pursuant to the Plan, and of any rules, regulations, determinations or decisions made by the
Administrator relating to the Plan or such Grant Agreements, and the rights of any and all persons
having or claiming to have any interest therein or thereunder, shall be determined exclusively in
accordance with applicable federal laws and the laws of the State of Maryland, without regard to
its conflict of laws principles.

     (l) Effective Date; Termination Date. The Plan is effective as of the date on which the Plan is
adopted by the Board, subject to approval of the stockholders within twelve months before or after
such date. No Award shall be granted under the Plan after the close of business on the day
immediately preceding the tenth anniversary of the effective date of the Plan, or if earlier, the
tenth anniversary of the date this Plan is approved by the stockholders. Subject to other
applicable provisions of the Plan, all Awards made under the Plan prior to such termination of the
Plan shall remain in effect until such Awards have been satisfied or terminated in accordance with
the Plan and the terms of such Awards.

 

 

APPENDIX A

PROVISIONS FOR CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS

With respect to Awards granted to California residents prior to a public offering of capital
stock of the Company that is effected pursuant to a registration statement filed with, and declared
effective by, the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933 and only to
the extent required by applicable law, the following provisions shall apply notwithstanding
anything in the Plan or a Grant Agreement to the contrary:

1. No such persons shall be entitled to receive Awards in the form of any stock
appreciation rights or phantom stock.

2. With respect to any Award granted in the form of a stock option pursuant to Section
6(a) of the Plan:

(a) The Award shall provide an exercise price which is not less than 85% of the Fair Market
Value of the stock at the time the option is granted, except that the price shall be 110% of the
Fair Market Value in the case of any person who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total
combined voting power of all classes of stock of the issuing corporation or its parent or
subsidiary corporations.

(b) The exercise period shall be no more than 120 months from the date the option is
granted.

(c) The options shall be non-transferable other than by will, by the laws of descent and
distribution, by instrument to an inter vivos or testamentary trust in which the options are to be
passed to beneficiaries upon the death of the trustor (settlor), or by gift to “immediate family”
as that term is defined in 17 C.F.R. 240.16a-l(e).

(d) The Award recipient shall have the right to exercise at the rate of at least 20% per
year over 5 years from the date the option is granted, subject to reasonable conditions such as
continued employment. However, if an option is granted to officers, directors, or consultants of
the Company or the issuer of the underlying security or any of its affiliates, the option may
become fully exercisable, subject to reasonable conditions such as continued employment, at any
time or during any period established by the issuer of the option or the issuer of the underlying
security or any of its affiliates.

(e) Unless employment is terminated for “cause” as defined by applicable law, the terms of
the Plan or Grant Agreement or a contract of employment, the right to exercise the option in the
event of termination of employment, to the extent that the Award recipient is otherwise entitled to
exercise on the date employment terminates, will be as follows:

(1) At least 6 months from the date of termination if termination was caused by death or
disability.

(2) At least 30 days from the date of termination if termination was caused by other than death or
disability.

3. The Company’s shareholders must approve the Plan within 12 months before or after the
date the Plan is adopted. Any option exercised before shareholder approval is obtained must be
rescinded if shareholder approval is not obtained within 12 months before or after the Plan is
adopted. Such shares shall not be counted in determining whether such approval is obtained.

 

 

4. At the discretion of the Administrator, the Company may reserve to itself and/or its
assignee(s) in the Grant Agreement or Stock Restriction Agreement a right to repurchase shares held
by an Award recipient following such Award recipient’s termination at any time within 90 days after
such Award recipient’s termination date (or in the case of securities issued upon exercise of an
option after the termination date, within 90 days after the date of such exercise) for cash and/or
cancellation of purchase money indebtedness, at: (A) with respect to vested shares, the Fair Market
Value of such shares on the Award recipient’s termination date; provided that such right to
repurchase vested shares terminates when the Company’s securities have become publicly traded; or
(B) with respect to unvested shares, the Award recipient’s
exercise price, provided, that
to the extent the Award recipient is not an officer, director or consultant of the Company or of a
Parent or Subsidiary of the Company such right to repurchase unvested shares at the exercise price
lapses at the rate of at least 20% per year over 5 years from the date of the grant of the option.

5. The Company will provide financial statements to each Award recipient annually during
the period such individual has Awards outstanding, or as otherwise required under Section
260.146.46 of Title 10 of the California Code of Regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Company will not be required to provide such financial statements to Award recipients when issuance
is limited to key employees whose services in connection with the Company assure them access to
equivalent information.

6. The Company will comply with Section 260.140.1 of Title 10 of the California Code of
Regulations with respect to the voting rights of Common Stock.

7. The Plan is intended to comply with Section 25102(o) of the California Corporations
Code. Any provision of this Plan which is inconsistent with Section 25102(o), including without
limitation any provision of this Plan that is more restrictive than would be permitted by Section
25102(o) as amended from time to time, shall, without further act or amendment by the Board, be
reformed to comply with the provisions of Section 25102(o). If at any time the Administrator
determines that the delivery of Common Stock under the Plan is or may be unlawful under the laws of
any applicable jurisdiction, or federal or state securities laws, the right to exercise an Award or
receive shares of Common Stock pursuant to an Award shall be suspended until the Administrator
determines that such delivery is lawful. The Company shall have no obligation to effect any
registration or qualification of the Common Stock under federal or state laws.
