expiring on the close of business on the first anniversary of the Effective
Time (the “Initial Term”),
unless terminated earlier in accordance with this Agreement.  During the twelve-month period immediately
following the Initial Term (the “Second Year”), unless terminated
earlier in accordance with this Agreement, the term of the Executive’s
employment by the Company shall automatically continue unless terminated by
either the Company or the Executive upon at least six (6) months prior written

may not be given prior to the expiration of the Initial Term.  After the Second Year, unless 

terminated earlier
in accordance with this Agreement, the term of the Executive’s employment by
the Company shall automatically continue unless terminated by either the
Company or the Executive upon at least three (3) months prior written notice of
termination to the other party; it being understood that such notice may not be
given prior to the expiration of the Second Year (any written notice of
termination described in this Section 2 is hereinafter referred to as a “Notice

and the period, if any, thereafter, during which the Executive’s employment
shall continue are collectively referred to in this Agreement as the “Term.”  The Company shall have the right at any time
following the delivery of the Notice of Termination by the Executive to relieve
the Executive of his offices, duties and responsibilities and to place him on a

Agreement; (B) injure the reputation, business or business relationships of the
Company or any of its affiliates; or (C) constitute a violation in any respect

the Term, the Executive shall be entitled to receive fringe benefits and
perquisites in accordance with the plans, practices, programs and policies of
the Company from time to time in effect and available generally to the senior
executives of the Company.

6.             Termination

(a)           The Company shall be entitled to
terminate the Term and to discharge the Executive for Cause (as defined below). 
The term “Cause” shall be limited to the following grounds:

(i)            The Executive’s repeated refusal or
willful failure to perform his principal duties and responsibilities as set
forth in Section 3 hereof, if such refusal or failure is not cured within
thirty (30) days after written notice thereof to the Executive by the Company;

(ii)           The willful misappropriation of the
funds or property of the Company (other than the taking of de minimus
office supplies from time to time);

(iii)          Use of alcohol or use of illegal
drugs, interfering with performance of the Executive’s obligations under this
Agreement, continuing after written warning;

(iv)          The conviction in a court of law for,
or the entering of a plea of guilty or no contest to, a felony (other than an
ordinary-course traffic offense (e.g., speeding)) or any crime involving moral
turpitude, fraud, dishonesty or theft;

(v)           The willful material nonconformance
with the Company’s written policies against racial or sexual discrimination or
harassment (of which practices and policies the Executive is given notice of in
advance), which nonconformance is not cured (if curable) within thirty (30)
days after written notice to the Executive is provided by the Company;

(vi)          The commission by the Executive of any
willful act which materially injures or could reasonably be expected to
materially injure the reputation, business or business relationships of the
Company or any affiliate thereof;

(vii)         Any material breach of any term or
provision of Section 8 of this Agreement, if such breach is not cured, if
curable, within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof to the Executive
by the Company; or

 4
 

 

(viii)        Any willful and material breach (not
covered by any of the clauses (i) through (vii) above) of any term, provision
or condition of this Agreement, if such breach is not cured within thirty (30)
days after written notice thereof to the Executive by the Company.

Any notice
required to be given by the Company pursuant to Sections 6(a)(i), (v), (vii) or
(viii) above shall state the specific nature of the claimed breach and, if such
breach is curable, the manner in which the Company requires such breach to be
cured (if curable). For purposes of this Section 6(a), no act, or failure to
act on the part of the Executive shall be deemed to be “willful” unless done,
or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith and without the reasonable
belief that the Executive’s action or omission was in or not opposed to the
best interests of the Company.  Any
notice of termination for Cause pursuant to this Section 6(a) shall be given
within sixty (60) days after the date the Chief Executive Officer of WPP
Digital (currently Mark Read) (the “Digital CEO”) has obtained actual
knowledge of the occurrence of the event constituting Cause.

(b)           The Executive shall be entitled to
terminate this Agreement and the Term hereunder for Good Reason (as defined
below), at any time during the Term, by providing written notice to the
Company, such notice to be delivered not more than sixty (60) days after the
occurrence of the event constituting such Good Reason.  “Good Reason” shall be limited to: (i)
a material reduction in the title or duties and responsibilities of the
Executive, as set forth in Section 3(a), or the assignment of duties materially
inconsistent with such title or duties and responsibilities, if such reduction
or assignment is not cured, if curable, for a period of thirty (30) days
following written notice of such reduction or assignment by the Executive to
the Company; (ii) a reduction in salary or of the Executive’s target bonus
amount for the 2007 calendar year (as set forth on Exhibit A) or  the Company’s failure to pay the Executive
any amounts due to him pursuant to this Agreement, if such failure or reduction
is not cured (but not subject to repeated cure opportunities in any given
calendar year of the Term solely as to material amounts due hereunder) for a
period of thirty (30) days following written notice of such failure or
reduction by the Executive to the Company; (iii) the relocation (without the
Executive’s consent) of the Executive’s principal place of employment by the
Company to a location that is more than 25 miles from the Company’s current
offices in New York City; (iv) the failure of the Company to obtain an
assumption of this Agreement from a successor to all or substantially all of
the assets or business of the Company (provided that no such assumption shall be
required if the successor to such assets or business is an affiliate of WPP and
the Executive’s duties with respect to such assets or business continue as
described in Section 3(a) above); or (v) any material breach by the Company of
the terms of this Agreement, which breach is not cured, if curable, within
thirty (30) days following written notice of such breach by the Executive; provided,
however, that (1) a change in the Company’s status from an independent
public company to a subsidiary of the Parent at the Effective Time and the
corresponding change in the Executive’s duties and responsibilities; and (2)
the transfer of all or any portion of the Company’s Search business services
line of business (including its search engine marketing business) (the “Search
Business”) at any time during the Term from the Company to any other
entity, shall not, in each case, constitute Good Reason. Any notice required to
be given by the Executive pursuant to this 

 5
 

Section 6(b) shall
state the specific nature of the claimed breach and the manner in which the
Executive requires such breach to be cured (if curable).  As of the Effective Time, the Executive
waives any right to terminate his employment for Good Reason based on facts, circumstances
or events occurring prior to or as of the Effective Time or changes to his
terms of employment reflected in this Agreement.

(c)           In the event of the termination of
the Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason other  than
by virtue of a termination by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for
Good Reason, the Executive shall be entitled to the following payments and
benefits, subject to any appropriate offsets, as permitted by applicable law,
for debts or money due to the Company or an affiliate thereof (collectively, “Offsets”):

(i)            unpaid salary compensation and any
unused accrued vacation through, and any unpaid reimbursable expenses
outstanding as of, the Date of Termination; and

(ii)           all benefits, if any, that had
accrued to the Executive through the Date of Termination under the plans and
programs described in Section 5 above, or any other applicable plans and
programs in which he participated as an employee of the Company, in the manner
and in accordance with the terms of such plans and programs.

In the event of
the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason other
than by virtue of a termination by the Company without Cause or by the
Executive for Good Reason, except as provided in this Section 6(c), the Company
shall have no further liability hereunder to the Executive or the Executive’s
heirs, beneficiaries or estate for damages, compensation, benefits, severance,
indemnities or other amounts of whatever nature, directly or indirectly,
arising out of or otherwise related to this Agreement and the Executive’s
employment or cessation of employment with the Company.

(d)           In the event of a termination by the
Company without Cause, by the Executive for Good Reason or by virtue of the
Executive’s death or disability, the Executive shall be entitled to continue to
receive from the Company, subject to any Offsets, the following:

(i)            if the Date of Termination is prior
to the end of the Second Year, then, as severance compensation, an amount equal
to his then applicable annual salary compensation, to be paid in one lump sum
payment within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination;

(ii)           as additional severance compensation,
his then applicable salary compensation when otherwise payable during the
period commencing on the day after the Date of Termination and ending on the
first anniversary of the Date of Termination; provided that, in the event of
the Executive’s disability, the aggregate amount of disability payments
received by the Executive during the year following the Date of Termination
shall be offset against the amount paid to him pursuant to this clause (ii);

 6
 

 

(iii)          any unpaid reimbursable expenses
outstanding, and any unused accrued vacation, as of the Date of Termination;

(iv)          outplacement services for a period of
three months following the Date of Termination;

(v)           if the Date of Termination is prior
to the end of the Second Year, then: (A) the restrictions on each share of
Restricted Stock held by the Executive shall lapse; and (B) all stock options
held by the Executive to purchase shares of WPP
Group plc Ordinary Shares or ADRs representing such Ordinary Shares shall vest
(provided that any Restricted Stock granted pursuant to Section 4(c) above
shall vest in accordance with the terms of the Restricted Stock Plan; it being
acknowledged and agreed that the Restricted Stock Plan shall not be amended in
any respect for the sole purpose of adversely treating the Executive
thereunder); and

(vi)          all benefits, if any, that had accrued
to the Executive through the Date of Termination under the plans and programs
described in Section 5 above, or any other applicable benefit plans and
programs in which he participated as an employee of the Company, in the manner
and in accordance with the terms of such plans and programs; provided, however,
that, notwithstanding the foregoing:

(A) The Executive shall
be entitled to continued participation on the same basis (including without
limitation, cost contributions) as the other senior executives of the Company
in all medical, dental, disability and life insurance coverage (such benefits
collectively called the “Continued Benefit Plans”) in which the
Executive was participating on the Date of Termination (as such Continued
Benefit Plans are from time to time in effect at the Company) until the earlier
of: (x) 12 months after the Date of Termination; and (y) the date, or dates, on
which the Executive receives substantially similar coverage and benefits under
a similar type of plan of a subsequent employer.

(B) The Executive shall
receive a pro rata portion of each of the bonuses referred to in Exhibit A
hereto for the calendar year or calendar quarter, as the case may be, in which
the Date of Termination occurs, which pro rata portion shall be based on the
percentage that the number of full and partial calendar months elapsed, from
the beginning of the calendar year or calendar quarter, as the case may be, in
which the Date of Termination occurs through and including the Date of
Termination, represents out of the twelve calendar months of the year or three calendar
months of the calendar quarter, as the case may be.  The pro rata portion of such bonuses shall be
paid to the Executive at such time as bonuses in respect of such year are paid
to other senior executives of the Company.

 7
 

 

(C) The Executive shall receive
each of the bonuses referred to in Exhibit A hereto earned by the Executive in
respect of the calendar quarter or calendar year, as the case may be,
immediately preceding the calendar quarter or calendar year in which the Date
of Termination occurs (to the extent not already paid to the Executive) to be
paid at such time as bonuses in respect of such year are paid to other senior
executives of the Company.

(e)           In the event of a termination by the
Company without Cause, by the Executive for Good Reason, or by virtue of the
Executive’s death or disability, except as provided in Section 6(d), the
Company shall have no further liability hereunder to the Executive or the
Executive’s heirs, beneficiaries or estate for damages, compensation, benefits,
severance, indemnities or other amounts of whatever nature, directly or
indirectly, arising out of or otherwise related to this Agreement and the
Executive’s employment or cessation of employment with the Company.  The making of any severance payments and
providing the other benefits as set forth in Section 6(d) is conditioned upon
the Executive executing and delivering a general release of any claims
(including claims of discrimination), in the form of Annex A hereto,
relating to the Executive’s employment with the Company or the termination
thereof and the satisfaction of any conditions to the validity of such release
(including the expiration of any revocation period).

(f)            In the event that the Executive is
indicted for a felony or any crime involving moral turpitude, fraud, dishonesty
or theft, then the Company shall have the right to require the Executive to
take a paid leave of absence during which: (i) the Executive shall be suspended
from all of his duties with the Company; and (ii) the Company shall have the
right to treat the Executive’s employment as having been terminated for Cause
pursuant to Section 6(a)(iv) for all purposes of this Agreement, with the date
on which a final adjudication (which is no longer appealable) of guilt or a
plea of guilty or of no contest being deemed the Date of Termination; provided,
however, that if the authorities with jurisdiction over the charges
decline to prosecute the Executive, the Executive is subsequently acquitted or
the charges are dismissed (including on appeal), then such leave of absence
shall terminate, the Executive shall be reinstated to his position and shall
resume his duties with the Company.

7.             Disability; Death

In the event the
Executive shall be unable to perform his duties hereunder by virtue of illness
or physical or mental incapacity or disability (from any cause or causes
whatsoever) in substantially the manner and to the extent required hereunder
prior to the commencement of such disability (all such causes being herein
referred to as “disability”)
and the Executive shall fail to perform such duties for periods aggregating one
hundred twenty (120) days, whether or not continuous, in any continuous period
of one hundred eighty (180) days, the Company shall have the right to terminate
the Term and to discharge the Executive hereunder as at the end of any calendar
month during the continuance of such disability upon at least thirty (30) days’
prior written notice to him.  In the
event of the Executive’s death, the Date of Termination shall be the date of
such death.

8.             Restrictive Covenants and
Protection of Confidential Information

(a)           The Executive acknowledges and agrees
that his services hereunder are of a special, unique, extraordinary and
intellectual character, and his position with the Company places him in a
position of confidence and trust with the clients and employees of the
Company.  The Executive acknowledges that
the rendering of services to the clients of the Company necessarily requires
the disclosure to the Executive of confidential information and trade secrets
of the Company (such as, without limitation, proprietary software programs,
marketing plans, media plans, budgets, corporate policies, client preferences
and policies, and identity of appropriate personnel of clients with sufficient
authority to influence a shift in suppliers). 
The parties hereto agree that in the course of the Executive’s
employment with the Company, the Executive has and will continue to develop a
personal relationship with the Company’s clients and a knowledge of those
clients’ affairs and requirements, and that the relationship of the Company
with its established clientele will therefore be placed in the Executive’s
hands in confidence and trust.  The
Executive consequently agrees that the restrictive covenants contained herein
are reasonable and necessary in order to protect and maintain the trade
secrets, business, assets and goodwill of the Company.

Accordingly, in consideration of the
payments and benefits the Executive received and will receive in connection
with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the provisions
of this Agreement, the Executive agrees that while he is in the employ of the
Company and for a one (1) year period after the Date of Termination (the “Initial
Non-Competition Period”), he shall not engage in business as, or own an
interest in, directly or indirectly, any individual proprietorship,
partnership, corporation, limited liability company, joint venture, or any
other form of business entity, whether as an individual proprietor, partner,
shareholder, member, manager, joint venturer, officer, director, consultant,
finder, broker, employee, or in any other manner whatsoever (except on behalf
of the Company), if such entity is engaged in whole or in part in any business
in the United States of the type and character engaged in and competitive with
that conducted by the Company; provided, however, that nothing
contained in this paragraph shall be deemed to prohibit the Executive from
making passive investments in any publicly held company provided that the
Executive’s beneficial ownership of any class of such company’s securities does
not exceed 5% of the outstanding securities of such class; provided, further,
that the Company shall have the right (the “Extension Right”), in its
sole discretion, to extend the restrictive covenants set forth in this
paragraph for a period commencing on the expiration of the Initial
Non-Competition Period until a date that is no later than the second
anniversary of the Date of Termination (such period being, the “Extended
Restrictions Period”).  The Company
may exercise its Extension Right by providing the Executive with written notice
thereof at least sixty (60) days prior to the end of the Initial
Non-Competition Period.  If the Company
exercises its Extension Right, then the Company shall pay the Executive an
amount equal to his base salary compensation (as in effect as of the Date of
Termination), in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices, during
the Extended Restrictions Period.

In addition to the foregoing, the Executive agrees that while he is in the employ of the Company
and for a two (2) year period after the Date of Termination, he shall not,
except on 

 9
 

behalf of the Company, directly or indirectly, and
regardless of the reason for his ceasing to be employed by the Company:

(1)           attempt
in any manner to solicit from any Client (as defined below) business of the
type performed by the Company or to persuade any Client to cease to do business
with the Company or to reduce the amount of business which any such Client has
customarily done or is reasonably expected to do with the Company, whether or
not the relationship between the Company and such Client was originally
established in whole or in part through his efforts; or

(2)           employ
(including to retain, engage or conduct business with) or attempt to employ or
assist anyone else to employ any person who is then or at any time during the
preceding year was: (i) an employee of or exclusive consultant to the Company;
or (ii) an employee of or exclusive consultant to any affiliate of WPP with
whom the Executive has had contact during the last full-year of his employment
with the Company; or

(3)           render
to or for any Client any services of the type rendered by the Company.

As used in this Section 8, the term “Company” shall mean the Company
and shall include any subsidiaries, divisions and business units of the
Company; and the term “Client”
shall mean:

(1)           (i)
anyone who is a client of the Company on the Date of Termination or, if the
Executive’s employment shall not have terminated, at the time of the alleged
prohibited conduct (the “Determination Date”); and (ii) anyone who is a
client of any affiliate of WPP on the Date of Termination or, if the Executive’s
employment shall not have terminated, the Determination Date, but only if, in
the case of this clause (ii), the Executive had performed services for, or had
significant contact with, such client;

(2)           (i)
anyone who was a client of the Company at any time during the one-year period
immediately preceding the Date of Termination or, if the Executive’s employment
shall not have terminated, during the one-year period immediately preceding the
Determination Date; and (ii) anyone who was a client of any affiliate of WPP at
any time during the one-year period immediately preceding the Date of
Termination or, if the Executive’s employment shall not have terminated, during
the one-year period immediately preceding the Determination Date, but only if,
in the case of this clause (ii), the Executive had performed services for, or
had significant contact with, such client; and;

(3)           (i)
any prospective client to whom the Company had made a formal presentation at
any time during the one-year period immediately preceding the Date of
Termination or, if the Executive’s employment shall not have terminated, during
the one-year period immediately preceding the Determination Date; and (ii) any
prospective client to whom any affiliate of WPP had made a formal presentation,
in which presentation the

 10

 

Executive participated, at any time during the
one-year period immediately preceding the Date of Termination or, if the
Executive’s employment shall not have terminated, during the one-year period
immediately preceding the Determination Date.

(b)           The Executive also agrees that he
will not at any time (whether during the Term or after the termination of this
Agreement)  disclose to any person or
entity any confidential information or trade secret (except to the extent any
disclosure is required by law or legal process, provided that the Executive
furnishes the Company with advance written notice of any such requirement and
reasonably cooperates with the Company to obtain a protective order or other
reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such
information) of the Company or any affiliate of WPP (such as, without
limitation, proprietary software programs, marketing plans, media plans,
budgets, corporate policies, client preferences and policies), or any client of
the Company or any affiliate of WPP, or utilize such confidential information
or trade secret for the Executive’s own benefit, or for the benefit of third
parties and all memoranda, notes, records or other documents compiled by the
Executive or made available to the Executive pertaining to the business of the
Company or such affiliate or their clients shall be the property of the Company
and shall be delivered to the Company on the Date of Termination or at any
other time, upon the Company’s request. 
As used in this Section 8(b), the term “confidential information or
trade secret” does not include information which becomes generally
available to the public or which is otherwise in the public domain other than
by breach of this Section 8(b).

(c)           If
the Executive commits a breach, or the Company has reasonable grounds to
believe that the Executive is about to commit a breach, of any of the
provisions of Sections 8(a) or (b) above, the Company shall have the right to
have the provisions of this Agreement specifically enforced without having to
prove the inadequacy of the available remedies at law, it being acknowledged
and agreed that any such breach or threatened breach will cause irreparable
injury to the Company and that money damages will not provide an adequate
remedy to the Company.  In addition, the
Company may take all such other actions and remedies available to it under law
or in equity and shall be entitled to such damages as it can show it has
sustained by reason of such breach.

(d)           The parties acknowledge that the type
and periods of restriction imposed in the provisions of Sections 8(a) and (b)
above are fair and reasonable and are reasonably required for the protection of
the legitimate interests of the Company and the confidential information,
proprietary property and goodwill associated with the business of the Company;
and that the time, scope, geographic area and other provisions of this Section
8 have been specifically negotiated by sophisticated commercial parties, it
being understood that the clients of the Company may be serviced from any
location and accordingly it is reasonable that the restrictive covenants set
forth herein are not limited by narrow geographic area but generally by the
location of such clients and potential clients. 
If any of the covenants in Sections 8(a) or (b) above, or any part
thereof, is hereafter construed to be invalid or unenforceable, the same shall
not affect the remainder of the covenant or covenants, which shall be given
full effect, without regard to the invalid portions.  In the event that any covenant contained in
this Agreement shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be
unenforceable by reason of its extending for too great a period of time or over
too great a geographical area or by reason of its being too extensive 

 11
 

 

in any other
respect, it shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time
for which it may be enforceable and/or over the maximum geographical area as to
which it may be enforceable and/or to the maximum extent in all other respects
as to which it may be enforceable, all as determined by such court in such
action.  The existence of any claim or
cause of action which the Executive may have against the Company or any other
affiliate of WPP shall not constitute a defense or bar to the enforcement of
any of the provisions of this Agreement and shall be pursued through separate
court action by the Executive.

9.                                      Intellectual
Property

During the Term, the Executive will disclose to the
Company all ideas, proposals, inventions, designs, technical innovations,
improvements and business plans developed by him during such period which
relate directly or indirectly to the business of the Company, including,
without limitation, any process, design, innovation, operation, campaign,
product or improvement which may be patentable or copyrightable.  The Executive agrees that all patents,
copyrights, tradenames, trademarks, service marks, campaigns and business plans
developed or created by the Executive in the course of his employment
hereunder, either individually or in collaboration with others, will be deemed
works for hire and the sole and absolute property of the Company. The Executive
agrees, that at the Company’s request and cost, he will take all commercially
reasonable steps to assist the Company to secure the rights thereto to the
Company by patent, copyright or otherwise to the Company.

10.                               Enforceability

The
failure of any party at any time to require performance by another party of any
provision hereunder shall in no way affect the right of that party thereafter
to enforce the same, nor shall it affect any other party’s right to enforce the
same, or to enforce any of the other provisions in this Agreement; nor shall
the waiver by any party of the breach of any provision hereof be taken or held
to be a waiver of any subsequent breach of such provision or as a waiver of the
provision itself.

11.                               Assignment

This
Agreement may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated by any
party hereto, other than by operation of law. 
This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of
the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns.

12.                               Modification

Agreement may not be orally canceled, changed, modified or amended, and no

 12
 

 

13.                               Severability;
Survival

In
the event any provision or portion of this Agreement is determined to be
invalid or unenforceable for any reason, in whole or in part, the remaining
provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless be binding upon the parties
with the same effect as though the invalid or unenforceable part had been
severed and deleted.  The respective rights
and obligations of the parties hereunder shall survive the termination of the
Executive’s employment to the extent necessary to the intended preservation of
such rights and obligations.

14.                               Key
Person Insurance

The
Executive agrees that the Company shall have the right to obtain key person
insurance on the Executive with the Company as the sole beneficiary
thereof.  The Executive shall (a)
reasonably cooperate fully in obtaining such insurance; (b) sign any reasonably
necessary consents, applications and other related forms or documents; and (c)
take any reasonably required medical examinations.

of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or
proceeding may be heard and determined in any such New York state court or, to
the extent permitted by law, in such federal court.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that a
final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be
enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner
provided by law.

17.                               No
Conflict

The
Executive represents and warrants that he is not subject to any agreement,
instrument, order, judgment or decree of any kind, or any other restrictive
agreement of any character, which would prevent him from entering into this
Agreement or which would be breached by the Executive upon his performance of
his duties pursuant to this Agreement.

18.                               Entire
Agreement

This
Agreement represents the entire agreement between the Company and the Executive
with respect to the subject matter hereof, and all prior agreements, plans and

that certain Amended and Restated

be made and provided in a manner that is intended to comply with Section 409A

be made hereunder to the Executive at any date as a result of the termination
of the Executive’s employment shall be delayed for such period of time as may
be necessary to meet the requirements of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the
Code.  On the earliest date on which such
payments can be made without violating the requirements of Section
409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, there shall be paid to the Executive, in a single
cash lump sum, an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all payments delayed
pursuant to the preceding sentence (such payments being, the “Delayed

Company earns interest on the Delayed Payments during the period such payments
are delayed, then the Executive shall be entitled to interest on the Delayed

interest earned by the Company on the Delayed Payments during such period; or
(y) 5% per annum.

insurance policy maintained for the benefit of directors and officers of United
States affiliates of WPP, in accordance with the terms of such policy as in
effect from time to time. The Company shall not exclude the Executive from any
general corporate indemnity coverage which may be expressly granted by the
Company to other senior executives of the Company.

25.                               Stock
Options; Restricted Stock

This
Section 25 shall confirm the following treatment of restricted stock and stock options
granted under one or more of the Company’s stock incentive plans (“Company

on each outstanding share of restricted stock shall continue to lapse (i.e.,
the shares shall continue to vest) in accordance with the schedule based on the
anniversary date or performance targets previously provided to the Executive
(provided that the performance targets for restricted stock granted during 2007
shall be as set forth on Exhibit B, with appropriate adjustments if the Search
Business or any portion thereof is transferred from the Company or any business
line or unit is transferred into the Company).

(iii)          Restrictions

options shall continue to vest in accordance with the schedule based on the
anniversary date or performance targets previously provided to the Executive.

 16
 

 

(iii)          Unvested
stock options shall not vest upon any termination of employment (regardless of
the reason therefor), except in the event of a termination of employment: (A)
by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason, provided that
the Date of Termination is prior to the expiration of the Second Year; or (B)
by virtue of the Executive’s death or disability (as defined in Section 7).

The terms Cause
and Good Reason shall have solely the meanings ascribed to such terms in this Agreement.

26.                               Termination of Merger Agreement

Exhibit A

GROSS PROFIT BONUS FOR 2007

Executive has a target gross
profit bonus compensation of $200,000 (“Target Gross Profit Bonus”) during  calendar year 2007.  The quarterly gross profit bonus (“Quarterly
Gross Profit Bonus”) will be determined by the following formula:

	
  Actual
  Company

        Quarterly
  Gross Profit      

  Annual
  Company

  Gross
  Profit Goal

  	
  X

  	
  Target
  Gross Profit Bonus

  	
  =

  	
  Quarterly
  Gross Profit Bonus

  

 

For  calendar year 2007, the Annual Company Gross
Profit Goal equals $92,994,741.  The
Quarterly Gross Profit Bonus shall be paid quarterly, within 45 days after the
end of each calendar quarter. The Executive shall not be entitled to amounts in
excess of 150% of the Target Gross Profit Bonus in the aggregate for the 2007
calendar year.

EBITDA BONUS FOR 2007

Executive has a target
EBITDA bonus compensation of $100,000 (“Target EBITDA Bonus”) during  calendar year 2007.  The annual EBITDA bonus (“Annual EBITDA
Bonus”) will be determined by the following formula:

 

	
  Actual
  Company

        Annual
  EBITDA      

  Annual
  Company

  EBITDA Goal

  	
  X

  	
  Target
  EBITDA Bonus

  	
  =

  	
  Annual
  EBITDA Bonus

  

 

For  calendar year 2007, the Annual Company EBITDA
Goal equals $32,339,242.  EBITDA
Percentage is defined as Actual Company Annual EBITDA divided by Annual Company
EBITDA Goal.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, (a) if the EBITDA Percentage is above 120%, the Executive will be
paid the Target EBITDA Bonus multiplied by 120%, and (b) no Annual EBITDA Bonus
will be paid if the EBITDA Percentage is less than 80%.  The Annual EBITDA Bonus shall be paid
annually.

All amounts set forth in
this Exhibit A shall be determined by the Chief Financial Officer of WPP Group
plc (or his designee) (the “WPP CFO”). 
In the absence of manifest error,
any such determination approved by the WPP CFO shall be final and binding on
the Executive and the Company.

 

 

Exhibit B

2007 Company Performance
Restricted Stock (“Performance Shares”) shall be tied to the Company’s
achievement of the performance targets set forth below in two components in
calendar year 2007: 2/3rd gross profit and 1/3rd pro forma operating profit (“PFOP”), as
follows: (1) for gross profit and PFOP, the Performance Shares shall be paid as
to 100% of the target if the Company achieves at least 100% of the target
component; (2) the Performance Shares shall be reduced if the Company achieves
less than 100% of any target component (for example, if the Company achieves
90% of the targeted gross profit and 100% of the targeted PFOP, the Executive
would receive 93% of his Performance Shares (.90*2/3 + 1.00*1/3)); provided,
however, that with respect to the PFOP component, the Company’s actual PFOP
must be at least 80% of the target PFOP for any Performance Shares to be paid
under the PFOP component.

Performance Shares shall vest as follows: 25% on
the date that the Company’s financial results for the 2007 calendar year are
finalized and completed; 25% on January 1, 2009; and 50% on January 1, 2010.

For calendar year 2007, (a) the Company’s gross
profit target is $92,994,741; and (b) the Company’s PFOP target is $32,339,242.

The Chief Financial Officer (or his designee) of
WPP Group plc shall determine if performance targets are achieved, which
determinations, absent manifest error, shall be final and binding.

 

 

Annex
A

General
Release

1.             For and in consideration of the
severance payments and other benefits provided in Section 6(d) of the
Employment Agreement, dated May 17, 2007 (the “Employment Agreement”),
by and between 24/7 Real Media, Inc. (the “Company”) and myself, and
other good and valuable consideration, I, for and on behalf of myself and my
heirs, administrators, executors, and assigns, effective the date hereof, do
hereby fully and forever release, remise and discharge the Company, its
successors and assigns, and the direct and indirect parents, subsidiaries and
affiliates of the Company, together with their respective officers, directors,
partners, shareholders, members, managers, employees and agents (collectively,
the “Group”), from any and all Claims (as defined below) which I had,
may have had, or now have against the Company and/or any other member of the
Group, for or by reason of any matter, cause or thing whatsoever, including any
Claim arising out of or attributable to my employment or the termination of my
employment with the Company, including but not limited to Claims of breach of
contract, wrongful termination, unjust dismissal, defamation, libel or slander,
or under any federal, state or local law dealing with discrimination based on
age, race, sex, national origin, handicap, religion, disability or sexual
preference, other than (i) Claims (as defined below) under this Release; (ii)
Claims for amounts due under Section 6(d) of the Employment Agreement; (iii)
Claims for indemnification, if any such rights were expressly granted to me,
and for directors and officers insurance; and (iv) Claims under the Restricted
Stock Plan (as defined in the Employment Agreement) in which I participated
while employed by the Company, in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of
such plan.  This release of Claims
includes, but is not limited to, all Claims arising under  Title
VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Civil
Rights Act of 1991, the Family Medical Leave Act, the Equal Pay Act, the New
York Human Rights Law, the New York City Administrative Code and all other
federal, state and local labor and anti-discrimination laws, the common law and
any other purported restriction on an employer’s right to terminate the employment
of employees.   As used in this Release,
the term “Claims” shall include all claims, covenants, warranties,
promises, undertakings, actions, suits, causes of action, obligations, debts,
attorneys’ fees, accounts, judgments, losses and liabilities, of whatsoever
kind or nature, in law, equity or otherwise.

2.             I specifically release all Claims
under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (the “ADEA”) relating to
my employment and its termination.

3.             I represent that I have not filed
or permitted to be filed against the Group, individually or collectively, any
lawsuits involving any Claims and I covenant and agree that I will not do so at
any time hereafter with respect to the subject matter of this Release and
Claims released pursuant to this Release (including, without limitation, any
Claims relating to the termination of my employment), except as may be
necessary to enforce this Release or pursue Claims permitted hereby, to obtain
benefits described in or granted under this Release, or to seek a determination
of the validity of the waiver of my rights under the ADEA.  Except as otherwise provided in the preceding
sentence, I will not voluntarily participate in any judicial proceeding of any
nature or description against any member of the Group that in any way involves
the 

 

 

allegations and facts that I
could have raised against any member of the Group as of the date hereof.

4.             I am specifically agreeing to the
terms of this Release because the Company has agreed to pay to me money and
other benefits to which I am not otherwise entitled under the Company’s
policies, and has provided such other good and valuable consideration as
specified herein.  The Company has agreed
to provide this money and other benefits because of my agreement to accept it
in full settlement of all possible Claims I might have or ever had, and because
of my execution of this Release.

5.             Upon termination of my employment,
I agree to return to the Company all Company property, including without
limitation, mailing lists, reports, files, memoranda, records, computer
hardware, software, credit cards, door and file keys, computer access codes or
disks and instructional manuals, and other physical or personal property which
I received or prepared or helped prepare in connection with my employment with,
and pertaining to the business of, the Company, and that I will not retain any
copies, duplicates, reproductions or excerpts thereof.

6.             I acknowledge that I have read this
Release in its entirety, fully understand its meaning and am executing this
Release voluntarily and of my own free will with full knowledge of its
significance.  I acknowledge and warrant
that I have had the opportunity to consider for twenty-one (21) days the terms
and provisions of this Release and that I have been advised by the Company to
consult with an attorney prior to executing this Release.  I shall have the right to revoke this Release
for a period of seven (7) days following my execution of this Release, by
giving written notice of such revocation to the Company.  This Release shall not become effective until
the eighth day following my execution of it (the “Effective Date”).

7.             I agree to maintain the
confidentiality of this Release, and to refrain from disclosing or making
reference to its terms except as required by law or with my accountant or
attorney and I reaffirm and agree to abide by the provisions of Section 8 of
the Employment Agreement.

8.             I agree that I shall not make, or
cause to be made, any statement or communicate any information (whether oral or
written) that disparages or reflects negatively on the Company or any member of
the Group.  The Company agrees that it
shall distribute a memo to its top ten senior executives directing such
executives not to make, or cause to be made, any statement or communicate any
information (whether oral or written) that disparages or reflects negatively on
you.  In addition, and notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this paragraph 8, this paragraph 8 shall not be
construed to preclude you from making statements with respect to the advantages
of doing business with a particular entity rather than the Company or another
member of the Group.

9.             The Company shall be entitled to
have the provisions of paragraphs 3, 5, 7 and 8 specifically enforced through
injunctive relief, without having to prove the inadequacy of the available
remedies at law, it being acknowledged and agreed that such breach will cause
irreparable injury to the Company and that money damages will not provide an
adequate remedy to the Company.  In addition,
in the event that I breach any of the provisions of this Release (and 

 

 

in addition to any other
legal or equitable remedies the Company may have), the Company shall be
entitled to cease making any of the payments or providing any of the benefits
referred to in paragraph 1 above; provided that such payments or benefits shall
be made to the extent required by a final and binding determination of a court
of law.  Any such action permitted to the
Company by this paragraph 9 shall not affect or impair any of my obligations
under this Release, including without limitation, the release of claims in
paragraph 1 hereof.

10.           In the event that any one or more of
the provisions of this Release is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not
in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
Moreover, if any one or more of the provisions contained in this Release
is held to be excessively broad as to duration, scope, activity or subject,
such provisions will be construed by limiting and reducing them so as to be
enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with applicable law.

11.           Nothing herein shall be deemed to
constitute an admission of wrongdoing by the Company or any member of the Group
or by me.  Neither this Release nor any
of its terms shall be used as an admission or introduced as evidence as to any
issue of law or fact in any proceeding, suit or action, other than an action to
enforce this Release.

12.           The terms of this Release and all
rights and obligations of the parties thereto, including its enforcement, shall
be interpreted and governed by the laws of the State of New York, without
regard to the choice of law provisions of New York law, to the extent such
provisions require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

    SUBSCRIPTION
      AGREEMENT

     

    SUBSCRIPTION
      AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) made as of the date set forth on the
      signature page hereof between BioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware
      corporation (the “Company”) and the undersigned (the
“Subscriber”).

     

    WITNESSETH:

     

    WHEREAS,
      the Company is offering in a private placement to accredited investors (the
      “Offering”) up to a maximum of 4,702,669 shares of common stock, par
      value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) at a price equal to $6.00
      per share (the “Offering Price”) and warrants to purchase shares of
      Common Stock equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the total number of shares
      sold to Subscribers in the Offering at an exercise price per share equal to
      $8.00 (the “Warrants”).  The Warrants are exercisable beginning
      on the date that is six months and one day after the Closing Date and continuing
      for three years thereafter.  The shares of Common Stock and Warrants
      offered hereby are sometimes referred to as the “Securities;”
and

     

    WHEREAS,
      the Subscriber desires to purchase that number of Securities set forth on the
      signature page hereof on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth;
      and

     

    WHEREAS,
      the Company has engaged Rodman & Renshaw, LLC and, indirectly, Oppenheimer
& Co. Inc. (collectively, the “Placement Agents”) as co-placement
      agents for the Offering on a “best-efforts” basis.

     

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual representations
      and
      covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as
      follows:

     

    

    I.  SUBSCRIPTION
      FOR SECURITIES AND REPRESENTATIONS BY SUBSCRIBER

     

    1.1  Subject
      to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Subscriber hereby
      irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Company such
      Securities as is set forth upon the signature page hereof and the Company agrees
      to sell such Securities to the Subscriber for said purchase price. The purchase
      price is payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds
      contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the
      Subscriber.  All wires should be sent to:

    Certificates
      for the shares of Common Stock and the Warrants will be delivered by the Company
      to the Subscriber promptly following the Closing (as herein
      defined).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Subscriber acknowledges
      that, although the Company intends to file on the next business day hereafter
      or
      as soon as practicable hereafter a listing application with the American Stock
      Exchange (“AMEX”) containing all information required by the rules and
      regulations of AMEX, final approval by AMEX is required in connection with
      the
      listing of the Common Stock to be eligible for trading on AMEX.  The
      Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause AMEX to approve the
      listing application for the Securities as soon as practicable.

     

    1.2  The
      Subscriber recognizes that the purchase of Securities involves a high degree
      of
      risk in that (i) the Company remains an early stage business with a limited
      operating history and will require funds in addition to the proceeds of the
      Offering; (ii) an investment in the Company is highly speculative and only
      investors who can afford the loss of their entire investment should consider
      investing in the Company; (iii) the Subscriber may not be able to liquidate
      the
      Subscriber’s investment in the Company; (iv) transferability of the Securities
      is extremely limited; and (v) in the event of a disposition, the Subscriber
      could sustain the loss of its entire investment.

     

    1.3  The
      Subscriber represents that the Subscriber is an “accredited investor” as such
      term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities
      Act
      of 1933, as amended, (the “Act”), as indicated by the responses to the
      questions contained in Section VII hereof, and that the Subscriber is able
      to
      bear the economic risk and illiquidity of an investment in the
      Securities.

     

    1.4  The
      Subscriber hereby acknowledges and represents that (i) the Subscriber has prior
      investment experience, including investment in non-listed and unregistered
      securities, or that the Subscriber has employed the services of an investment
      advisor, attorney and/or accountant to read all of the documents furnished
      or
      made available by the Company both to the Subscriber and to all other
      prospective investors to evaluate the merits and risks of such an investment
      on
      the Subscriber’s behalf; (ii) the Subscriber recognizes the highly speculative
      nature of an investment in the Securities; and (iii) the Subscriber is able
      to
      bear the economic risk and illiquidity which the Subscriber assumes by investing
      in the Securities.

     

    1.5  The
      Subscriber (i) hereby represents that the Subscriber has been furnished by
      the
      Company during the course of this transaction with and has carefully read the
      Company’s SEC Filings (as hereafter defined), including without limitation the
      Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
      2006, the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended
      March 31, 2007, the additional risk factors specific to the Common Stock and
      the
      Offering contained in Schedule 1.5 (together with the SEC Filings, the
“Offering Documents”), and all other information regarding the Company
      which the Subscriber has requested or desired to know; (ii) has been afforded
      the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from duly authorized
      officers or other representatives of the Company concerning the terms and
      conditions of the Offering; and (iii) has received any additional information
      which the Subscriber has requested.

     

    1.6  To
      the
      extent necessary, the Subscriber has retained, at its own expense, and relied
      upon the advice of appropriate professionals regarding the investment, tax
      and
      legal merits and consequences of this Agreement and its purchase of the
      Securities hereunder.

     

    1.7  The
      Subscriber hereby acknowledges that the Offering has not been reviewed by the
      United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) because of
      the Company’s representations that this Offering is intended to be exempt from
      the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Act pursuant to Sections
      3(b),
      4(2) and/or 4(6) thereof and Regulation D promulgated under the Act. The
      Subscriber agrees that the Subscriber will not, directly or indirectly, offer,
      sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of (or solicit any offers to buy,
      purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge of) any of the Securities, except
      in compliance with the Act and the rules and regulations promulgated
      thereunder.

     

    1.8  The
      Subscriber understands that none of the Securities have been registered under
      the Act by reason of a claimed exemption under the provisions of the Act which
      depends, in part, upon the Subscriber’s investment intention. In this
      connection, the Subscriber hereby represents that the Subscriber is purchasing
      the Securities for the Subscriber’s own account for investment and not with a
      view toward the resale or distribution thereof to others.  The
      Subscriber, if an entity, was not formed for the purpose of purchasing the
      Securities.  The Subscriber understands that Rule 144 promulgated
      under the Act requires, among other conditions, a one-year holding period prior
      to the resale (in limited amounts) of securities acquired in a non-public
      offering without having to satisfy the registration requirements under the
      Act.

     

    1.9  The
      Subscriber understands and hereby acknowledges that the Company is under no
      obligation to register the Securities under the Act or any applicable state
      securities or “blue sky” laws  (collectively, “Securities
      Laws”) other than as set forth in Section V.  Prior to the Legend
      Removal Date (as hereafter defined), the Subscriber consents that the Company
      may, if it desires, permit the transfer of the Securities out of the
      Subscriber’s name only when the Subscriber’s request for transfer is accompanied
      by an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that neither
      the
      sale nor the proposed transfer results in a violation of the Act or any
      applicable state “blue sky” laws.

     

    1.10  So
      long
      as required by Section 5.13, the Subscriber consents to the placement of a
      legend on any certificate or other document evidencing the Securities indicating
      that such Securities have not been registered under the Act or any state
      securities or “blue sky” laws and setting forth or referring to the restrictions
      on transferability and sale thereof contained in this Agreement. The Subscriber
      is aware that the Company will make a notation in its appropriate records and
      issue “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent with respect to the
      restrictions on the transferability of such Securities.

     

    1.11  The
      Subscriber understands that the Company will review this Agreement and, if
      such
      Subscriber is an individual, hereby gives authority to the Company to call
      Subscriber’s bank or place of employment (in a call in which the Placement
      Agents participate) or otherwise review the financial standing of the
      Subscriber; and it is further agreed that upon their mutual agreement the
      Placement Agents and the Company reserve the unrestricted right, without further
      documentation or agreement on the part of the Subscriber, to reject or limit
      any
      subscription, to accept subscriptions for Securities and to close the Offering
      to the Subscriber at any time.

     

    1.12  The
      Subscriber hereby represents that the address of the Subscriber furnished by
      the
      Subscriber on the signature page hereof is the Subscriber’s principal residence
      if the Subscriber is an individual or its principal business address if it
      is a
      corporation or other entity.

     

    1.13  The
      Subscriber represents that the Subscriber has full power and authority
      (corporate, statutory and other­wise) to execute and deliver this Agreement
      and to purchase the Securities subscribed for hereby.  This Agreement
      constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Subscriber,
      enforceable against the Subscriber in accordance with its terms.

     

    1.14  If
      the
      Subscriber is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust,
      employee benefit plan, individual retire­ment account, Keogh Plan, or other
      entity, then (a) it is authorized and qualified to become an investor in the
      Company and the person signing this Agreement on behalf of such entity has
      been
      duly authorized by such entity to do so, and (b) it is duly organized, validly
      existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
      organization.

     

    1.15  The
      Subscriber represents and warrants that it has not engaged, consented to nor
      authorized any broker, finder or intermediary to act on its behalf, directly
      or
      indirectly, as a broker, finder or intermediary in connection with the
      transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  The Subscriber shall
      indemnify and hold harmless the Company from and against all fees, commissions
      or other payments owing to any such person or firm acting on behalf of such
      Subscriber hereunder.

     

    1.16  The
      Subscriber acknowledges that (a) the Company has engaged, consented to and
      authorized the Placement Agents in connection with the transactions contemplated
      by this Agreement, (b) the Company shall pay the Placement Agents a commission
      and reimburse the Placement Agents’ expenses and the Company shall indemnify and
      hold harmless the Subscriber from and against all fees, commissions or other
      payments owing by the Company to the Placement Agents or any other person or
      firm acting on behalf of the Company hereunder, (c) registered representatives
      of the Placement Agents and/or its designees (including, without limitation,
      registered representatives of the Placement Agents and/or its designees who
      participate in the Offering and sale of the securities sold in the Offering)
      will be paid a portion of the commissions paid to the Placement Agents and
      (d)
      the Placement Agents have not independently verified any information (financial,
      legal or otherwise) and makes no representation or warranty, express or implied,
      as to, and assumes no responsibility for, the accuracy or completeness of the
      information contained in the Offering Documents.

     

    1.17  The
      Subscriber, whose name appears on the signature line below, shall be the
      beneficial owner of the Securities for which such Subscriber
      subscribes.

     

    1.18  The
      Subscriber understands, acknowledges and agrees with the Company as
      follows:

     

    (a)  The
      Company may terminate the Offering or reject any subscription at any time in
      its
      sole discretion.  The execution of this Agreement by the Subscriber or
      solicitation of the investment contemplated hereby shall create no obligation
      on
      the part of the Company or the Placement Agents to accept any subscription
      or
      complete the Offering.

     

    (b)  The
      Subscriber hereby acknowledges and agrees that the subscription hereunder is
      irrevocable by the Subscriber, and that, except as required by law, the
      Subscriber is not entitled to cancel, terminate or revoke this Agreement or
      any
      agreements of the Subscriber hereunder and that if the Subscriber is an
      individual this Agreement shall survive the death or disability of the
      Subscriber and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
      and
      their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and
      permitted assigns.

     

    (c)  No
      federal or state agency or authority has made any finding or determination
      as to
      the accuracy or adequacy of the Offering Documents or as to the fairness of
      the
      terms of the Offering nor any recommendation or endorsement of the
      Securities.  Any representation to the contrary is a criminal
      offense.  In making an investment decision, the Subscriber must rely
      on its own examination of the Company and the terms of the Offering, including
      the merits and risks involved.

     

    1.19  Other
      than the transaction contemplated hereunder, the Subscriber has not directly
      or
      indirectly, nor has any Person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any
      understanding with the Subscriber, executed any disposition, including “short
      sales” as defined in Rule 200 of Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act, in
      the securities of the Company during the period commencing from the time that
      the Subscriber first received a term sheet (written or oral) from the Company
      or
      any other Person setting forth the material terms of the transactions
      contemplated hereunder until the date hereof (the “Discussion Time”).
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Subscriber that is a
      multi-managed investment vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers manage
      separate portions of such Subscriber’s assets and the portfolio managers have no
      direct knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers
      managing other portions of the Subscriber’s assets, the representation set forth
      above shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the
      portfolio manager that made the investment decision to purchase the Securities
      covered by this Agreement.  Other than to other Persons party to this
      Agreement, the Subscriber has maintained the confidentiality of all disclosures
      made to it in connection with this transaction (including the existence and
      terms of this transaction).

     

    1.20  The
      Subscriber represents that the Subscriber is not a broker-dealer or if the
      Subscriber is a broker-dealer, the Subscriber represents that the Subscriber
      is
      purchasing the Securities in the ordinary course of business, and has no
      agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to
      distribute the Securities.

     

    1.21  The
      Subscriber represents that the Subscriber did not purchase any shares of Common
      Stock of the Company in the open market on May 4, 2007 or May 7,
      2007.

     

    II.  REPRESENTATIONS
      BY THE COMPANY

     

    The
      Company hereby represents and warrants to the Subscriber and the Placement
      Agents that:

     

    2.1  Organization
      and Qualification.  The Company is a corporation duly organized,
      validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware
      and has full corporate power and lawful authority to conduct its business as
      presently conducted.  Except as set forth in Schedule 2.1, the
      Company is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in
      good
      standing in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business presently
      conducted by it or the properties owned, leased or operated by it, makes such
      qualification or licensing necessary and where the failure to be so qualified
      or
      licensed would have a material adverse effect upon the business, prospects
      or
      financial condition of the Company (a “Material Adverse
      Effect”).

     

    2.2  Capitalization
      and Voting Rights.  The authorized capital stock of the Company is
      as set forth in its most recent SEC Filing (as hereafter defined), 23,513,350
      shares of common stock and 391,286 shares of class C special stock of which
      are
      issued and outstanding as of May 24, 2007.  All issued and outstanding
      shares of capital stock of the Company are validly issued, fully paid and
      nonassessable.  Except as set forth in this Agreement or in the SEC
      Filings, there are no outstanding options, warrants, agreements, commitments,
      convertible securities, preemptive rights or other rights to subscribe for
      or to
      purchase any shares of capital stock of the Company nor are there any
      agreements, promises or commitments to issue any of the
      foregoing.  Except as set forth in the SEC Filings, in this Agreement
      and as otherwise required by law, there are no restrictions upon the voting
      or
      transfer of the Securities pursuant to the Company's Amended and Restated
      Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, (the “Certificate of
      Incorporation”), By-laws or other governing documents or any agreement or
      other instruments to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is
      bound; provided, however, that the Securities will be subject to restrictions
      on
      transfer and Securities Laws (as hereafter defined) as provided
      herein.  No securityholder has the right to include any securities in
      the Registration Statement (as hereinafter defined) or otherwise cause the
      Company to effect registration of any of the Company’s securities under the Act,
      except for investors in the Company’s prior private placements, which rights the
      Company has to date satisfied.

     

    2.3  Authorization;
      Enforceability. The Company has all corporate right, power and authority to
      enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated
      hereby.  All corporate action on the part of the Company, its
      directors and stockholders necessary for the authorization, execution, delivery
      and performance of this Agreement by the Company, the authorization, sale,
      issuance and delivery of the Securities and the performance of the Company's
      obligations hereunder has been taken.  This Agreement has been duly
      executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a legal, valid and binding
      obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with
      its terms, subject to laws of general application relating to bankruptcy,
      insolvency and the relief of debtors and rules of law governing specific
      performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, and to limitations
      of public policy.  The Securities and the issuance of shares of Common
      Stock upon issuance of the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”) have been duly
      and validly authorized and, upon the issuance and delivery thereof and payment
      therefor as contemplated by this Agreement and the terms of the Warrants, will
      be free and clear of liens (other than any liens created by or imposed on the
      holders thereof through no action of the Company), duly and validly authorized
      and issued, fully paid and nonassessable.  The Company has reserved a
      sufficient number of shares of Common Stock for its authorized but unissued
      shares for issuance upon exercise of the Warrants.  The issuance and
      sale of the Securities contemplated hereby will not give rise to any preemptive
      rights or rights of first refusal on behalf of any person.

     

    2.4  No
      Conflict; Governmental Consents.

     

    (a)  The
      execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement, the consumma­tion
      of the transactions contemplated hereby and the offer and sale of the Securities
      will not result in the violation of any law, statute, rule, regulation, order,
      writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any court or governmental authority
      to
      or by which the Company is bound that would have a material adverse effect
      upon
      the business or financial condition of the Company, or of any provision of
      the
      Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws of the Company, and will not conflict
      with, or result in a breach or violation of, any of the terms or provisions
      of,
      or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, any
      lease, loan agreement, mortgage, security agreement, trust indenture or other
      agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound
      or to which any of its properties or assets is subject, nor result in the
      creation or imposition of any lien upon any of the properties or assets of
      the
      Company that would have a material adverse effect upon the business or financial
      condition of the Company.

     

    (b)  Except
      as
      set forth in Schedule 2.4(b), no consent, waiver, approval, authorization
      or other order of any governmental authority or other third-party is required
      to
      be obtained by the Company in connection with the authorization, execution
      and
      delivery of this Agreement or with the authorization, issuance and sale of
      the
      Securities, except for such consents, waivers, approvals, authorizations, orders
      or filings as may be required to be obtained or made, and which shall have
      been
      obtained or made at or prior to the required time and except for such consents,
      waivers, approvals, authorizations, orders or filings that would not have a
      Material Adverse Affect.

     

    2.5  Licenses.  The
      Company has all licenses, permits and other governmental authorizations
      currently required for the conduct of its business or ownership of properties
      and is in all material respects complying therewith, except for any licenses,
      permits or other governmental authorizations which would not materially
      adversely affect the business, property, financial condition, or results of
      operations of the Company.

     

    2.6  Litigation.  Except
      as set forth in the SEC Reports, there is no action, suit, inquiry, notice
      of
      violation, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of the
      Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its properties
      before or by any court, arbitrator, governmental or administrative agency or
      regulatory authority (federal, state, county, local or foreign) (collectively,
      an “Action”) which (i) adversely affects or challenges the legality,
      validity or enforceability of this Agreement or the Securities or (ii) could,
      if
      there were an unfavorable decision, have or reasonably be expected to result
      in
      a Material Adverse Effect.  Except as set forth in the SEC Reports,
      neither the Company, nor any director or officer thereof, is or has been the
      subject of any action involving a claim of violation of or liability under
      federal or state securities laws or a claim of breach of fiduciary
      duty.  Except as set forth in the SEC Reports, there has not been, and
      the Company has not received any notice or indication from the SEC that there
      is
      pending or contemplated any investigation by the SEC involving the Company
      or
      any current or former director or officer of the Company.  The SEC has
      not issued any stop order or other order suspending the effectiveness of any
      registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Exchange Act
      of
      1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or the Act.

     

    2.7  Accuracy
      of Report.  The Company has filed all reports, schedules, forms,
      statements and other documents required to be filed by it under the Act and
      the
      Exchange Act, including pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) thereof, for the
      two
      years preceding the date hereof (the foregoing materials, including the exhibits
      thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein, being collectively
      referred to herein as the “SEC Reports”) on a timely basis or has
      received a valid extension of such time of filing and has filed any such SEC
      Reports prior to the expiration of any such extension.  As of their
      respective dates, the SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the
      requirements of the Act and the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules
      and
      regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, as applicable, and none
      of
      the SEC Reports, when filed, contained any untrue statement of a material fact
      or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
      in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
      under
      which they were made, not misleading.

     

    2.8  Investment
      Company.  The Company is not and, upon completion of the Offering,
      will not be an “investment company” within the meaning of such term under the
      Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,  and the rules and
      regulations of the SEC thereunder.

     

    2.9  Patents
      and Trademarks.  The Company has, or has rights to use, all
      patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications, service marks,
      trade names, trade secrets, inventions, copyrights, licenses and other
      intellectual property rights and similar rights necessary or material for use
      in
      connection with their respective businesses as described in the SEC Reports
      and
      which the failure to so have could have a Material Adverse Effect (collectively,
      the “Intellectual Property Rights”).  Except as set forth on
      Schedule 2.9, the Company has not received a notice (written or otherwise)
      that
      the Intellectual Property Rights used by the Company or violates or infringes
      upon the rights of any Person (as hereinafter defined).  To the
      knowledge of the Company, all such Intellectual Property Rights are enforceable
      and there is no existing infringement by another Person of any of the
      Intellectual Property Rights that could have a Material Adverse
      Effect.  The Company has taken reasonable security measures to protect
      the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of their intellectual properties,
      except where failure to do so could not, individually or in the aggregate,
      reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     

    2.10  No
      Material Adverse Change.  Since the date of the latest audited
      financial statements included within the SEC Reports, except as specifically
      disclosed in a subsequent SEC Report, (i) there has been no event, occurrence
      or
      development that has had or that could reasonably be expected to result in
      a
      Material Adverse Effect, (ii) the Company has not incurred any liabilities
      (contingent or otherwise) other than (A) trade payables and accrued expenses
      incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and
      (B) liabilities not required to be reflected in the Company’s financial
      statements pursuant to GAAP or disclosed in filings made with the SEC, (iii)
      the
      Company has not altered its method of accounting, except as otherwise required
      pursuant to GAAP, (iv) the Company has not declared or made any dividend or
      distribution of cash or other property to its stockholders or purchased,
      redeemed or made any agreements to purchase or redeem any shares of its capital
      stock and (v) the Company has not issued any equity securities to any officer,
      director or Affiliate, except pursuant to existing Company stock
      plans.  Except as set forth in Schedule 2.12, the Company does
      not have pending before the SEC any request for confidential treatment of
      information.  Except for the issuance of the Securities contemplated
      by this Agreement, no event, liability or development has occurred or exists
      with respect to the Company or its Subsidiaries or their respective business,
      properties, operations or financial condition, that would be required to be
      disclosed by the Company under applicable securities laws at the time this
      representation is made that has not been publicly disclosed as of the date
      of
      this Agreement.

     

    2.11  Financial
      Statements.  The financial statements included in the Company's
      most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
      2006 and all other reports filed by the Company with the SEC pursuant to the
      Exchange Act since January 1, 2007 and prior to the date hereof (collectively,
      the “SEC Filings”) present fairly and accurately in all material respects
      the financial position of the Company as of the dates shown and its results
      of
      operations and cash flows for the periods shown, and such financial statements
      have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
      (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis (except as may be indicated
      thereon or in the notes thereto and subject, in the case of unaudited financial
      statements, to normal adjustments).  The Company has accounted for all
      option grants and other incentive-based stock awards in, compliance under GAAP,
      as in effect on the respective date of grant or award or as otherwise required
      by GAAP’s effect at the time of the SEC filing.  Except as set forth
      in the financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Filings filed
      prior to the date hereof, to the Company's knowledge, the Company has no
      liabilities, contingent or otherwise, except those which individually or in
      the
      aggregate are not material to the financial condition or operating results
      of
      the Company.

     

    2.12  Compliance
      with Laws.  Neither the Company nor, to the Company's knowledge,
      any Person (as hereafter defined) acting on the Company’s behalf and in
      accordance with the Company’s instructions, has conducted any general
      solicitation or general advertising (as those terms are used in Regulation
      D of
      the Act) in connection with the offer or sale of the
      Securities.  Assuming the accuracy of the Subscribers’ representations
      and warranties set forth in Article III, no registration under the Act is
      required for the offer and sale of the Securities by the Company to the
      Subscribers.  Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates (as
      hereafter defined), nor, to the Company's knowledge, any Person acting on the
      Company’s or on the behalf of its Affiliates and in accordance with the
      Company’s instructions, has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of
      any security of the Company or solicited any offers to buy any security of
      the
      Company, under circumstances that would adversely affect reliance by the Company
      on Section 4(2) of the Act for the exemption from registration for the
      transactions contemplated hereby or would require registration of the Securities
      under the Act.  The Company is in compliance with the requirements of
      AMEX for continued listing of the Common Stock thereon and has not received
      any
      notification that, and has no knowledge that, the AMEX is contemplating
      terminating such listing nor, to the Company's knowledge, is there any basis
      therefore. The transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not contravene
      the rules and regulations of the AMEX, however, the approval of the AMEX will
      be
      required for the issuance and sale of the Shares and the Warrant Shares and
      the
      Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such
      approval.    The Company intends to file on the next
      business day after the date of this Agreement or as soon as practicable
      hereafter a subsequent listing application for listing the Securities on and
      hereby represents and warrants to the Placement Agents and the Subscriber that
      it will take any other necessary action in accordance with the rules of the
      AMEX
      to enable the Securities to trade on the AMEX.

     

    2.13  Insurance.  The
      Company is insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against
      such losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the
      businesses in which the Company is engaged, including, but not limited to,
      directors and officers insurance coverage in the amount of
      $5,000,000.  The Company has no reason to believe that it will not be
      able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires
      or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to
      continue its business without a significant increase in cost.

     

    2.14  Sarbanes-Oxley;
      Internal Accounting Controls.  The Company has at all times been
      and currently is in material compliance with all provisions of the
      Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 which are applicable to it as of the Closing
      Date.  The Company believes that it maintains a system of internal
      accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that (i)
      transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific
      authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
      preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain
      asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance
      with management’s general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded
      accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable
      intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences.
      The
      Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
      Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company and designed such
      disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information required to be
      disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange
      Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods
      specified in the Commission’s rules and forms.  The Company’s
      certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure
      controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by the Company’s
      most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act (such date, the
      “Evaluation Date”).  The Company presented in its most recently
      filed periodic report under the Exchange Act the conclusions of the certifying
      officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures
      based
      on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date.  Since the Evaluation
      Date, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over
      financial reporting (as such term is defined in the Exchange Act) that has
      materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s
      internal control over financial reporting.

     

    2.15  Application
      of Takeover Protections.  The Company and its Board of Directors
      have taken all necessary action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any
      control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any
      distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision
      under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation (or similar charter documents)
      or the laws of its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable
      to
      the Subscribers as a result of the Subscribers and the Company fulfilling their
      obligations or exercising their rights under this Agreement and the Warrants,
      including, without limitation, as a result of the Company’s issuance of the
      Securities and the Subscribers’ ownership of the Securities.

     

    2.16  Disclosure.  Except
      with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions
      contemplated by this Agreement and the Warrants, the Company confirms that,
      neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided any of the
      Subscribers or their agents or counsel with any information that it believes
      constitutes or might constitute material, non-public
      information.   The Company understands and confirms that the
      Subscribers will rely on the foregoing representation in effecting transactions
      in securities of the Company.  All disclosure furnished by or on
      behalf of the Company to the Subscribers regarding the Company, its business
      and
      the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Offering Documents, with
      respect to the representations and warranties made herein are true and correct
      with respect to such representations and warranties and do not contain any
      untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary
      in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances
      under which they were made, not misleading. The Company acknowledges and agrees
      that no Subscriber makes or has made any representations or warranties with
      respect to the transactions contemplated hereby other than those specifically
      set forth in Section III hereof.

     

    2.17  Accountants.  The
      Company’s accountants are set forth on Schedule 2.17.  To the
      knowledge of the Company, such accountants, who the Company expects will express
      their opinion with respect to the financial statements to be included in the
      Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, are a
      registered public accounting firm as required by the Act.

     

    2.18  Acknowledgment
      Regarding Subscribers’ Purchase of Securities.  The Company
      acknowledges and agrees that each of the Subscribers is acting solely in the
      capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to the Transaction Documents
      and the transactions contemplated thereby.  The Company further
      acknowledges that no Subscriber is acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary
      of
      the Company (or in any similar capacity) with respect to this Agreement and
      the
      transactions contemplated thereby and any advice given by any Subscriber or
      any
      of their respective representatives or agents in connection with this Agreement
      and the transactions contemplated hereby is merely incidental to Subscribers’
purchase of the Securities.  The Company further represents to each
      Subscriber that the Company’s decision to enter into this Agreement and the
      other agreements contemplated hereby has been based solely on the independent
      evaluation of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Company and its
      representatives.

     

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

     

    2.20  Form
      S-3 Eligibility.  The Company is eligible to register the resale
      of the Common Stock sold hereunder and issuable upon exercise of the Warrants
      for resale by the Subscriber on Form S-3 promulgated under the Securities
      Act.

      Date (120 in the event of a review by the Commission) or (b) the tenth (10th)
      business day following the date on which the Company is notified by the SEC
      that
      the SEC will not be reviewing the Registration Statement or that the SEC has
      no
      further comment on the Registration Statement (such earlier date is referred
      to
      as the “Effectiveness Date”) and (ii) cause such Registration Statement
      to remain effective for the Registration Period.  The Registration
      Statement shall contain (unless otherwise directed by at least a majority in
      interest of the Holders) substantially the “Plan of Distribution”
attached hereto as Annex A.  The Company shall telephonically
      request effectiveness of a Registration Statement as of 5:00 pm Eastern Time
      on
      a trading day.   The Company shall immediately notify the Holders
      via facsimile of the effectiveness of a Registration Statement on the same
      trading day that the Company telephonically confirms effectiveness with
      the  SEC, which shall be the date requested for effectiveness of a
      Registration Statement.  The Company shall, by 9:30 am Eastern Time on
      the trading day after the day the Registration Statement is declared effective
      (as defined in the Subscription Agreement), file a final Prospectus with the
      SEC
      if required by Rule 424.

     

    (b)           If:
      (i) a Registration Statement is not filed on or prior to its Filing Date (if
      the
      Company files a Registration Statement without affording the Holders the
      opportunity to review and comment on the same as required by Section 5.4(b)
      or
      (ii) a Registration Statement filed or required to be filed hereunder is not
      declared effective by the Commission by its Effectiveness Date, or (iii) after
      the Effectiveness Date, a Registration Statement ceases for any reason to remain
      continuously effective as to all Registrable Securities for which it is required
      to be effective, or the Holders are otherwise not permitted to utilize the
      Prospectus therein to sell Registrable Securities at any time other than during
      a Permitted Black-Out Period (as defined herein) (any such failure or breach
      being referred to as an “Event”, and for purposes of clause (i) or (ii)
      the date on which such Event occurs, or for purposes of clause (iii) the first
      date on which the Holders are not permitted to utilize the Prospectus, being
      referred to as “Event Date”), then in addition to any other rights the
      Holders may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Event Date
      and
      on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event
      shall not have been cured by such date) until the applicable Event is cured,
      the
      Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as partial liquidated
      damages and not as a penalty, equal to 1% of the aggregate purchase price paid
      for the Securities held by such Holder pursuant to the Subscription Agreement
      for any Registrable Securities then held by such
      Holder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the partial liquidated damages
      shall not exceed a maximum of 12% of the aggregate purchase price paid for
      the
      Securities held by such Holder pursuant to the Subscription Agreement for any
      Registrable Securities then held by such Holder.  If the Company fails
      to pay any partial liquidated damages pursuant to this Section in full within
      seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at
      a
      rate of 18% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be
      paid by applicable law) to the Holder, accruing daily from the date such partial
      liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon,
      are paid in full. The partial liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof
      shall apply on a daily pro-rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the
      cure of an Event.

     

    5.3  All
      Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration,
      qualification, exemption or compliance pursuant to Section 5.2 shall be borne
      by
      the Company.  All Selling Expenses relating to the sale of securities
      registered by or on behalf of Holders shall be borne by such Holders pro rata
      on
      the basis of the number of securities so registered.

     

    5.4  In
      the
      case of the registration, qualification, exemption or compliance effected by
      the
      Company pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall, upon reasonable request,
      inform each Holder as to the status of such registration, qualification,
      exemption and compliance.  At its expense the Company
      shall:

     

    (a)  use
      its
      reasonable best efforts to keep such registration, and any qualification,
      exemption or compliance under state securities laws which the Holders reasonably
      request the Company to obtain, continuously effective as to all Registrable
      Securities until the earlier of: (i) the Holders having completed the
      distribution of the Registrable Securities described in the Registration
      Statement relating thereto; or (ii) with respect to any Holder, such time as
      all
      Registrable Securities then held by such Holder may be sold in compliance with
      Rule 144(k) under the Act.  The period of time during which the
      Company is required hereunder to keep the Registration Statement effective
      is
      referred to herein as the “Registration Period”;

     

    (b)  The
      Company shall deliver a draft of the Registration Statement or any amendment
      or
      supplement thereto, which changes as modifies any information regarding a
      Holder, a Holder’s beneficial ownership of the Company’s securities or any
      information under the caption “Plan of Distribution” to the Holders at least
      five (5) business days prior to filing such Registration Statement, amendment
      or
      supplement.  Notify the Holders of Registrable Securities to be sold
      (which notice shall, pursuant to clauses (iii) through (vi) hereof, be
      accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the
      requisite changes have been made) as promptly as reasonably possible (and,
      in
      the case of (i)(A) below, not less than one trading day prior to such filing)
      and (if requested by any such Person) confirm such notice in writing no later
      than one trading day following the day (i)(A) when a Prospectus or any
      Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement
      is
      proposed to be filed; and (B) with respect to a Registration Statement or any
      post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective; (ii) of any
      request by the SEC or any other Federal or state governmental authority for
      amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or Prospectus; (iii)
      of
      the issuance by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority
      of
      any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement covering
      any or all of the Registrable Securities or the initiation of any Proceedings
      for that purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with
      respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification
      of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the
      initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose; (v) of the
      occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes the financial statements
      included in a Registration Statement ineligible for inclusion therein or any
      statement made in a Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document
      incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any
      material respect or that requires any revisions to a Registration Statement,
      Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of a Registration Statement
      or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue statement
      of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated
      therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
      circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and (vi) the
      occurrence or existence of any pending corporate development with respect to
      the
      Company that the Company believes may be material and that, in the determination
      of the Company, makes it not in the best interest of the Company to allow
      continued availability of a Registration Statement or Prospectus; provided
      that
      any and all of such information shall remain confidential to each Holder until
      such information otherwise becomes public, unless disclosure by a Holder is
      required by law; provided, further, notwithstanding each Holder’s
      agreement to keep such information confidential, the Holders make no
      acknowledgement that any such information is material, non-public
      information;

     

    (c)  Use
      its
      reasonable best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of (i) any order suspending
      the
      effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the
      qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable
      Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, at the earliest reasonably practicable
      moment;

     

    (d)  furnish
      to each Holder, without charge, at least one copy of such Registration Statement
      and any post-effective amendment or supplement thereto, including financial
      statements and schedules, and, if the Holder so requests in writing, all
      exhibits (excluding those incorporated by reference) in the form filed with
      the
      SEC;

     

    (e)  during
      the Registration Period, deliver to each Holder, without charge, a reasonable
      number of copies of the prospectus included in such Registration Statement
      and
      any amendment or supplement thereto as such Holder may reasonably request;
      and
      the Company consents to the use, consistent with the provisions hereof, of
      the
      prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling
      Holders of Registrable Securities in connection with the offering and sale
      of
      the Registrable Securities covered by the prospectus and any amendment or
      supplement thereto;

     

    (f)  during
      the Registration Period, deliver to each Holder, without charge, upon request,
      (i) a copy of the full Registration Statement (excluding exhibits); (ii) all
      exhibits excluded by the parenthetical to the immediately preceding clause
      (i);
      and (iii) such other documents as may be reasonably requested by the
      Holder;

     

    (g)  prior
      to
      any public offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration
      Statement, register or qualify or obtain an exemption for the offer and sale
      under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any such Holders
      reasonably request in writing, provided that the Company shall not for any
      such
      purpose be required to qualify generally to transact business as a foreign
      corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified or to consent
      to
      general service of process in any such jurisdiction, and do any and all other
      acts or things reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the offer and sale
      in
      such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration
      Statement.

     

    (h)  cooperate
      with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of
      certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to the
      Registration Statement, free of any restrictive legends to the extent not
      required at such time as determined by the Company after consultation with
      legal
      counsel and in such denominations and registered in such names as Holders may
      request;

     

    (i)  upon
      the
      occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 5.4(b)(v) above, the Company
      shall promptly prepare a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement
      or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document
      so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Registrable Securities
      included therein, the prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a
      material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the
      statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
      made, not misleading;

     

    (j)  use
      its
      reasonable best efforts to comply in all material respects with all applicable
      rules and regulations of the SEC, and make generally available to the Holders
      not later than 45 days (or 90 days if the fiscal quarter is the fourth fiscal
      quarter) after the end of its fiscal quarter in which the first anniversary
      date
      of the effective date of the Registration Statement occurs, an earnings
      statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act;
      and

     

    (k)  Subject
      to the terms of this Agreement, the Company hereby consents to the use of such
      Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling
      Holders in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities
      covered by such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, except
      after
      the giving of any notice pursuant to Section 3(d).

     

    5.5  The
      Holders shall have no right to take any action to restrain, enjoin or otherwise
      delay any registration pursuant to Section 5.2 hereof as a result of any
      controversy that may arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation
      of this Agreement.

     

    5.6  (a)           To
      the extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify each Holder, each
      underwriter of the Registrable Securities and each person controlling such
      Holder and each such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act,
      with respect to which any registration, qualification or compliance has been
      sought pursuant to this Agreement, against all claims, losses, expenses, costs,
      damages and liabilities (or action in respect thereof), including any of the
      foregoing incurred in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened
      (subject to Section 5.6(c) below), arising out of or based on (i) any untrue
      statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any
      registration statement, prospectus or offering circular, or any amendment or
      supplement thereof, incident to any such registration, qualification or
      compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein
      a
      material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
      therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they were made,
      or
      (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Act, the Exchange
      Act, or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Act or the Exchange Act,
      and shall reimburse each Holder, each underwriter of the Registrable Securities
      and each person controlling such Holder and each such underwriter, for
      reasonable legal and other expenses, in connection with investigating or
      defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action as and when
      incurred; provided that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to
      the
      extent that any untrue statement or omission thereof is made in reliance upon
      and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on
      behalf of such Holder or underwriter and stated to be specifically for use
      in
      preparation of such registration statement, prospectus or offering circular;
      provided that the Company shall not be liable in any such case where the claim,
      loss, damage or liability arises out of or is related to the failure of the
      Holder to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Section 5.7
      hereof, and except that the foregoing indemnity agreement is subject to the
      condition that, insofar as it relates to any such untrue statement or alleged
      untrue statement or omission made in the preliminary prospectus but eliminated
      or remedied in the amended prospectus on file with the SEC at the time the
      registration statement becomes effective or in the amended prospectus filed
      with
      the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Act or in the prospectus subject to
      completion under Rule 434 of the Act, which together meet the requirements
      of
      Section 10(a) of the Act (the “Final Prospectus”), such indemnity
      agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any such Holder, any such
      underwriter or any such controlling person, with respect to any Losses relating
      to a sale made after the date of the final Prospectus if, and only if, (x)
      the
      Company complied with Section 5.4(b) and (y) if a copy of the Final Prospectus
      furnished by the Company to the Holder for delivery was not furnished to the
      person or entity asserting the loss, liability, claim or damage at or prior
      to
      the time such furnishing is required by the Act and the Final Prospectus would
      have cured the defect giving rise to such loss, liability, claim or
      damage.  Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the
      Company shall reimburse each Holder, upon such Holder's demand, for all
      reasonably necessary expenses and costs which are incurred, as and when
      incurred, by such Holder as a result of the indemnification claims described
      in
      this Section 5.6(a).  Such demand may be made from time to time prior
      to resolution of the claim.  In no event shall the Company be liable
      for the expenses and costs of more than one counsel on behalf of the Holders
      unless in the reasonable judgment of  a Holder, based upon written
      advice of its counsel, a conflict of interest exists between the Holders with
      respect to such claims, in which case the Company shall reimburse the Holders
      for additional attorneys.

     

    (b)  Each
      Holder will severally, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are
      included in the securities as to which such registration, qualification or
      compliance is being effected, indemnify the Company, each of its directors
      and
      officers, each underwriter of the Registrable Securities and each person who
      controls the Company and each underwriter of the Registrable Securities within
      the meaning of Section 15 of the Act, against all claims, losses, expenses,
      costs, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), including any
      of
      the foregoing incurred in settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened
      (subject to Section 5.6(c) below), arising out of or based on (i) such Holder’s
      failure to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the 1933 Act
      or
      (ii) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration
      statement, prospectus or offering circular, or any amendment or supplement
      thereof, incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance or
      based
      on any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
      or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the
      circumstances in which they were made, and will reimburse the Company, such
      directors and officers, each underwriter of the Registrable Securities and
      each
      person controlling the Company and each underwriter of the Registrable
      Securities for reasonable legal and any other expenses or costs reasonably
      incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss,
      damage, liability or action as incurred, in each case to the extent, but only
      to
      the extent, that such untrue statement or omission thereof is made in reliance
      upon, and in conformity with, written information furnished to the Company
      by or
      on behalf of the Holder and stated to be specifically for use in preparation
      of
      such registration statement, prospectus or offering circular; provided that
      the
      indemnity shall not apply to the extent that such claim, loss, damage or
      liability results from the fact that a current copy of the prospectus was not
      made available to the Holder and such current copy of the prospectus would
      have
      cured the defect giving rise to such loss, claim, expense, costs, damage or
      liability.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall a Holder
      be liable for any such claims, losses, expenses, costs, damages or liabilities
      in excess of the proceeds received by such Holder in that offering, except
      in
      the event of fraud by such Holder.

     

    (c)  Each
      party entitled to indemnification under this Section 5.6 (the “Indemnified
      Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification
      (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified Party has
      actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall
      permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any
      litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying
      Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be
      approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be
      withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense with its
      own counsel at such Indemnified Party’s expense unless the named parties to any
      proceeding covered hereby (including any impleaded parties) include both the
      Company or any others the Company may designate and one or more Indemnified
      Persons, and representation of the Indemnified Persons and such other parties
      by
      the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing
      interests between them, and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified
      Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying
      Party
      of its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent such failure
      is
      materially prejudicial to the Indemnifying Party in defending such claim or
      litigation.  An Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any
      settlement of an action or claim effected without its written consent (which
      consent will not be unreasonably withheld).

     

    (d)  If
      the
      indemnification provided for in this Section 5.6 is held by a court of competent
      jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party with respect to any
      loss,
      liability, claim, damage, cost or expense referred to therein, then the
      Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party thereunder,
      shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as
      a
      result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, cost or expense in such
      proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying
      Party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the other in connection
      with the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, liability, claim,
      damage, cost or expense as well as any other relevant equitable
      considerations.  The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of
      the Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
      whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the
      omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied or which
      should have been supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party
      and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and
      opportunity to correct or prevent such 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 this Agreement, any reasonable
      attorneys’ or other 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 was
      available to such party in accordance with its terms.

     

    The
      parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
      pursuant to this Section 5.6(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 5.6(d), no
      Holder shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess
      of the amount by which the net proceeds actually received by such Holder from
      the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the
      amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by
      reason of such untrue statement or omission, except in the case of fraud or
      willful misconduct by such Holder.

     

    (e)  The
      indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section are in addition
      to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified
      Parties.

     

    5.7  (a)           Subject
      to the limitations set forth in Section 5.7(b) below, upon receipt of any notice
      from the Company of the happening of any event requiring the preparation of
      a
      supplement or amendment to a prospectus relating to Registrable Securities
      so
      that, as thereafter delivered to the Holders, such prospectus will not contain
      an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
      required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
      misleading, each Holder shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable
      Securities pursuant to the registration statement contemplated by Section 5.2
      until its receipt of copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus from
      the
      Company and, if so directed by the Company, each Holder shall deliver to the
      Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder’s
      possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities current
      at
      the time of receipt of such notice.

     

    (b)  Any
      Holder of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock shall suspend, upon request of
      the Company, any disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the
      Registration Statement and prospectus contemplated by Section 5.2 during
      any period, not to exceed two 30-day periods within any 12-month period (each,
      a
“Permitted Black-Out Period”), when the Company determines in good faith
      that offers and sales pursuant thereto should not be made by reason of the
      presence of material undisclosed circumstances or developments with respect
      to
      which the disclosure that would be required in such a prospectus is premature
      because it would have an adverse effect on the Company.  The period of
      time in which the disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the
      Registration Statement and prospectus is so suspended shall be referred to
      as a
“Black-Out Period.”  The Company agrees to so advise the
      Holders promptly of the commencement and termination of any such Black-Out
      Period, and the Holders agree to keep the fact of such Black-Out Period
      confidential.

     

    (c)  As
      a
      condition to the inclusion of its Registrable Securities, each Holder shall
      furnish to the Company such information regarding the securities of the Company
      owned beneficially or of record by such Holder and the distribution proposed
      by
      such Holder as the Company may request in writing because it is required in
      connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in
      this Section V.  Any sale of any Registrable Securities by any Holder
      shall constitute a representation and warranty by such Holder that the required
      information relating to such Holder’s beneficial ownership of the Company’s
      securities and its plan of distribution is as set forth in the prospectus
      delivered by such Holder in connection with such disposition, that such
      prospectus does not as of the time of such sale contain any untrue statement
      of
      a material fact relating to such Holder or its plan of distribution and that
      such prospectus does not as of the time of such sale omit to state any material
      fact relating to such Holder’s beneficial ownership of the Company’s securities
      or its plan of distribution necessary to make the statements in such prospectus,
      in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
      misleading.

     

    (d)  With
      respect to any sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration
      Statement filed pursuant to this Section V, each Holder hereby covenants with
      the Company not to make any sale of the Registrable Securities without
      effectively causing the prospectus delivery requirements under the Act to be
      satisfied.

     

    (e)  Each
      Holder acknowledges and agrees that the Registrable Securities sold pursuant
      to
      the Registration Statement described in this Section are not transferable on
      the
      books of the Company unless the stock certificate submitted to the transfer
      agent evidencing such Registrable Securities is accompanied by a certificate
      reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that (i) the
      Registrable Securities have been sold in accordance with such Registration
      Statement and (ii) the requirement of delivering a current prospectus has
      been satisfied.

     

    (f)  Each
      Holder shall not take any action with respect to any distribution deemed to
      be
      made pursuant to such registration statement, which would constitute a violation
      of Regulation M under the Exchange Act or any other applicable rule, regulation
      or law.

     

    (g)  At
      the
      end of the Registration Period, the Holders of Registrable Securities included
      in the Registration Statement shall discontinue sales of shares pursuant to
      such
      Registration Statement upon receipt of notice from the Company of its intention
      to remove from registration the shares covered by such Registration Statement
      which remain unsold.

     

    5.8  With
      a
      view to making available to the Holders the benefits of certain rules and
      regulations of the SEC which at any time permit the sale of the Registrable
      Securities to the public without registration, the Company shall use its
      reasonable best efforts:

     

    (a)  to
      make
      and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined
      in Rule 144 under the Act, at all times;

     

    (b)  to
      file
      with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of
      the
      Company under the Exchange Act; and

     

    (c)  so
      long
      as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, to furnish to such Holder upon
      any
      reasonable request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance
      with
      Rule 144 under the Act, and of the Exchange Act, and a copy of the most
      recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and
      documents of the Company as such Holder may reasonably request in availing
      itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing a Holder to sell any such
      securities without registration.

     

    5.9  With
      the
      written consent of the Company and the Holders holding a majority of the
      Registrable Securities that are then outstanding, any provision of this Section
      V may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance, either
      retroactively or prospectively and either for a specified period of time or
      indefinitely) or amended.  Upon the effectuation of each such waiver
      or amendment, the Company shall promptly give written notice thereof to the
      Holders, if any, who have not previously received notice thereof or consented
      thereto in writing.

     

    5.10  The
      rights and obligations of the Holders under this Section V may not be assigned
      or transferred to or assumed by any transferee or assignee except (i) to a
      transferee that acquires at least 20% of such Holder's Registrable Securities
      or
      (ii) to an Affiliate or limited or general partner of a Holder; provided that
      such transfer was not in violation of this Agreement or the Securities Laws;
      and
      provided, further, that any person to whom the rights under this Section V
      have
      been transferred in accordance with this Section 5.10 has assumed the
      obligations of a Holder hereunder and a copy of such written assignment and
      assumption is provided to the Company.

     

    5.11  No
      Piggyback on Registrations.  Neither the Company nor any of its
      security holders (other than the Holders in such capacity pursuant hereto)
      may
      include securities of the Company in the Registration Statement other than
      the
      Registrable Securities.  The Company shall not file any other
      registration statements until the Registration Statement is filed by the Company
      with the SEC or permit any other registration statement filed by the Company
      to
      be declared effective until the Registration Statement is declared effective
      by
      the SEC, provided that this Section 5.11 shall not prohibit the Company from
      filing amendments to registration statements already filed or registration
      statements on Form S-8 or S-4 (or their then equivalent).

     

    5.12  Piggy-Back
      Registrations.  If at any time during the Registration Period
      there is not an effective Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable
      Securities and the Company shall determine to prepare and file with the SEC
      a
      registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the
      account of others under the Act of any of its equity securities, other than
      on
      Form S-4 or Form S-8 (each as promulgated under the Act) or their then
      equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection
      with
      any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in
      connection with the stock option or other employee benefit plans, then the
      Company shall send to each Holder a written notice of such determination and,
      if
      within fifteen (15) days after the date of such notice, any such Holder shall
      so
      request in writing, the Company shall include in such registration statement
      all
      or any part of such Registrable Securities such Holder requests to be
      registered.

     

    5.13  Legend
      Removal.

     

    (a)  The
      Company acknowledges and agrees that a Subscriber may from time to time pledge
      pursuant to a bona fide margin agreement with a registered broker-dealer or
      grant a security interest in some or all of the Securities to a financial
      institution that is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the
      Act and who agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and, if
      required under the terms of such arrangement, such Subscriber may transfer
      pledged or secured Securities to the pledgees or secured
      parties.  Such a pledge or transfer would not be subject to approval
      of the Company and no legal opinion of legal counsel of the pledgee, secured
      party or pledgor shall be required in connection therewith.  Further,
      no notice shall be required of such pledge.  At the appropriate
      Subscriber’s expense, the Company will execute and deliver such reasonable
      documentation as a pledgee or secured party of Securities may reasonably request
      in connection with a pledge or transfer of the Securities, including, if the
      Securities are subject to registration pursuant to this Agreement, the
      preparation and filing of any required prospectus supplement under Rule
      424(b)(3) under the Securities Act or other applicable provision of the
      Securities Act to appropriately amend the list of Selling Stockholders
      thereunder.

     

    (b)  Certificates
      evidencing the Shares and Warrant Shares shall not contain any legend (including
      the legends referred to in Section 1.16), (i) while a Registration Statement
      (as
      defined below) covering the resale of the Shares and the Warrant Shares is
      effective under the 1933 Act, (ii) following any sale of such Shares or Warrant
      Shares pursuant to Rule 144 or pursuant to an effective Registration Statement,
      or (iii) if such Shares or Warrant Shares are eligible for sale under Rule
      144(k), or (iv) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements
      of
      the Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the
      staff of the Commission.  The Company shall cause its counsel to issue
      a legal opinion to the Company’s transfer agent promptly after such time as the
      legend is no longer required pursuant to this Section if required by the
      Company’s transfer agent to effect the removal of the legend
      hereunder.  The Company agrees that following such time as such legend
      is no longer required under this Section 4.1(b), it will, no later than three
      trading days following the delivery by a Subscriber to the Company or the
      Company’s transfer agent of a certificate representing Shares or Warrant Shares,
      as the case may be, issued with a restrictive legend (such third trading day,
      the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to such
      Subscriber a certificate representing such shares that is free from all
      restrictive and other legends.  The Company may not make any notation
      on its records or give instructions to any transfer agent of the Company that
      enlarge the restrictions on transfer set forth in this
      Section.  Certificates for Securities subject to legend removal
      hereunder shall be transmitted by the transfer agent of the Company to the
      Subscribers by crediting the account of the Subscriber’s prime broker with the
      Depository Trust Company System.

     

    (c)  The
      Subscriber, severally and not jointly with the other Subscribers, agrees that
      such Subscriber will sell any Shares and Warrant Shares pursuant to either
      the
      registration requirements of the 1933 Act, including any applicable prospectus
      delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if Shares and Warrant
      Shares are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold in
      compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein, and acknowledges
      that the removal of the restrictive legend from certificates representing
      Securities as set forth in this Section 5.13 is predicated upon the Company’s
      reliance upon this understanding.

     

    5.14           Securities
      Laws Disclosure; Publicity.  The Company shall, by 9:15 a.m. (New
      York City time) on the trading day immediately following the date hereof, issue
      a press release disclosing the material terms of the transactions contemplated
      hereby and within 1 Trading Day following the date hereof file a Current Report
      on Form 8-K, disclosing the material terms of the transactions contemplated
      hereby, and filing this Agreement and the form of Warrant as exhibits
      thereto.  The Company and Rodman & Renshaw, LLC shall consult with
      each other in issuing any other press releases with respect to the transactions
      contemplated hereby, and neither the Company nor any Subscriber shall issue
      any
      such press release or otherwise make any such public statement without the
      prior
      consent of the Company, with respect to any press release of any Subscriber,
      or
      without the prior consent of Rodman & Renshaw, LLC, with respect to any
      press release of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld
      or delayed, 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 or communication.  Notwithstanding the
      foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Subscriber,
      or include the name of any Subscriber in any filing with the SEC or any
      regulatory agency or trading market, without the prior written consent of such
      Subscriber, except (i) as required by federal securities law in connection
      with
      (A) any registration statement contemplated by this agreement and (B) the filing
      of final documents entered hereunder (including signature pages thereto) with
      the SEC and (ii) to the extent such disclosure is required by law or trading
      market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the Subscribers
      with
      prior notice of such disclosure permitted under this clause (ii).

     

    5.15  Non-Public
      Information.  Except with respect to the material terms and
      conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Company
      covenants and agrees that neither it nor any other person acting on its behalf
      will provide any Subscriber or its agents or counsel with any information that
      the Company believes constitutes material non-public information, unless prior
      thereto such Subscriber shall have executed a written agreement regarding the
      confidentiality and use of such information.  The Company understands
      and confirms that each Subscriber shall be relying on the foregoing covenant
      in
      effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

     

    5.16  Reservation
      of Common Stock. As of the date hereof, the Company has reserved and the
      Company shall continue to reserve and keep available at all times a sufficient
      number of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of enabling the Company to
      issue shares pursuant to any exercise of the Warrants.

     

    

     

    VI.  MISCELLANEOUS

     

    6.1  From
      the
      date hereof until 120 days after the date the Registration Statement is declared
      effective, except as otherwise provided below, the Company shall not issue
      shares of Common Stock or any options, warrants, rights or other securities
      convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock.  The restriction on
      issuance by the Company of securities under this Section 6.1 shall not apply
      to:  (i) the issuance of any shares of Common Stock upon the exercise
      of any options or warrants outstanding as of the Closing Date; (ii) the issuance
      of any shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of any shares
      of  class C special stock of the Company; (iii) the grant of any
      options with an exercise price no less than the mean between the reported high
      and low sale prices of the Common Stock on the date of grant pursuant to the
      Company’s Amended and Restated 1998 Stock Plan; (iv) any rights offering of
      securities, including rights to purchase Common Stock, by the Company to all
      of
      its stockholders; (v) the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or other equity
      securities to Paladin Labs as described in Schedule 2.2 to this Agreement;
      (vi)
      the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or any options, warrants, rights
      or
      other securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock by way of
      stock split or stock dividend or similar capital modification; (vii) the
      issuance of any shares of Common Stock or any options, warrants, rights or
      other
      securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock in connection
      with
      any merger, acquisition or other reorganization; or (viii) the issuance of
      any
      shares of Common Stock or any options, warrants, rights or other securities
      convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock upon authorization of the
      Board of Directors of the Company in connection with strategic alliances or
      business conducted by the Company with vendors, lessors or financial
      institutions.

     

    6.2  From
      the
      date hereof until the one year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company
      shall be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect
      any
      subsequent financing involving a “Variable Rate Transaction”.  The
      term “Variable Rate Transaction” shall mean a transaction in which the
      Company issues or sells (i) any debt or equity securities that are convertible
      into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive
      additional shares of Common Stock either (A) at a conversion, exercise or
      exchange rate or other price that is based upon and/or varies with the trading
      prices of or quotations for the shares of Common Stock at any time after the
      initial issuance of such debt or equity securities, or (B) with a conversion,
      exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date
      after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the
      occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related
      to
      the business of the Company or the market for the Common Stock or (ii) enters
      into any agreement, including, but not limited to, an equity line of credit,
      whereby the Company may sell securities at a future determined
      price.  Any Subscriber shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief
      against the Company to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in
      addition to any right to collect damages.

     

    6.3  Any
      notice or other communication given hereunder shall be deemed sufficient in
      writing and sent by (a) telecopy or facsimile at the address or number
      designated below (if delivered on a business day during normal business hours
      where such notice is to be received); or (b) registered or certified mail,
      return receipt requested, or delivered by hand against written receipt therefor,
      addressed to BioSante Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 111 Barclay Boulevard,
      Lincolnshire, Illinois 60069, Facsimile: (847) 478-9260, Attention: Stephen
      M.
      Simes, President and Chief Executive Officer.  Notices shall be deemed
      to have been given or delivered on the date of mailing, except notices of change
      of address, which shall be deemed to have been given or delivered when
      received.

     

    6.4  Except
      as
      set forth in Section 5.9 and except with respect to Sections 6.1 and 6.2 (which
      Sections may be amended with the written consent of the Company and the Holders
      holding at least a majority of the Registrable Securities that are then
      outstanding), this Agreement shall not be changed, modified or amended except
      by
      a writing signed by the parties to be charged, and this Agreement may not be
      discharged except by performance in accordance with its terms or by a writing
      signed by the party to be charged.

     

    6.5  Upon
      the
      execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Subscriber, this Agreement
      shall
      become a binding obligation of the Subscriber with respect to the purchase
      of
      Securities as herein provided, subject to acceptance by the Company and the
      Placement Agents; subject, however, to the right hereby reserved to the Company
      to enter into the same agreements with other subscribers and to add and/or
      delete other persons as subscribers.

     

    6.6  In
      the
      event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder, of any of their respective
      obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the Company, as the case may
      be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and
      under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to
      specific performance of its rights under this Agreement.  The Company
      and each Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate
      compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of
      the
      provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of
      any
      action for specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall not assert
      or shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

     

    6.7  Notwithstanding
      the place where this Agreement may be executed by any of the parties hereto,
      the
      parties expressly agree that all the terms and provisions hereof shall be
      construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware
      without regard to principles of conflicts of law.

     

    6.8  The
      holding of any provision of this Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable by
      a
      court of competent jurisdiction shall not affect any other provision of this
      Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. If any provision of
      this
      Agreement shall be declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
      illegal or incapable of being enforced in whole or in part, such provision
      shall
      be interpreted so as to remain enforceable to the maximum extent permissible
      consistent with applicable law and the remaining conditions and provisions
      or
      portions thereof shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect and
      enforceable to the extent they are valid, legal and enforceable, and no
      provisions shall be deemed dependent upon any other covenant or provision unless
      so expressed herein.

     

    6.9  It
      is
      agreed that a waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of this
      Agreement shall not operate, or be construed, as a waiver of any subsequent
      breach by that same party.

     

    6.10  The
      parties agree to execute and deliver all such further documents, agreements
      and
      instruments and take such other and further action as may be necessary or
      appropriate to carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

     

    6.11  This
      Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts each of which shall be
      deemed an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the
      same
      instrument.

     

    6.12  The
      Subscriber agrees not to issue any public statement with respect to the
      Subscriber’s investment or proposed investment in the Company or the terms of
      any agreement or covenant between them and the Company without the Company’s
      prior written consent, except such disclosures as may be required under
      applicable law or under any applicable order, rule or regulation.

     

    6.13  Nothing
      in this Agreement shall create or be deemed to create any rights in any person
      or entity not a party to this Agreement, except for the Placement Agents and
      the
      holders of Registrable Securities.

     

    6.14  Any
      pronoun herein shall include all genders and/or the plural or singular as
      appropriate from the context.

    ANNEX
      A

    

    Plan
      of Distribution

     

    Each
      Selling Stockholder (the “Selling Stockholders”) of the common stock and
      any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time
      to
      time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on the American Stock
      Exchange or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the
      shares are traded or in private transactions.  These sales may be at
      fixed or negotiated prices.  A Selling Stockholder may use any one or
      more of the following methods when selling shares:

     

    
      	
              ·  

            	
              ordinary
                brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer
                solicits purchasers;

            

    

     

    
      	
              ·  

            	
              block
                trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares
                as agent
                but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to
                facilitate the transaction;

            

    

     

    
      	
              ·  

            	
              purchases
                by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for
                its
                account;

            

    

     

    
      	
              ·  

            	
              an
                exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable
                exchange;

            

    

     

    
      	
              ·  

            	
              privately
                negotiated transactions;

            

    

     

    
      	
              ·  

            	
              settlement
                of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration
                statement of which this prospectus is a
                part;

            

    

     

    
      	
              ·  

            	
              broker-dealers
                may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number
                of such
                shares at a stipulated price per
                share;

            

    

     

    
      	
              ·  

            	
              through
                the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions,
                whether through an options exchange or
                otherwise;

            

    

     

    
      	
              ·  

            	
              a
                combination of any such methods of sale;
                or

            

    

     

    
      	
              ·  

            	
              any
                other method permitted pursuant to applicable
                law.

            

    

     

    The
      Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities
      Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), if available, rather than
      under this prospectus.

     

    Broker-dealers
      engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to
      participate in sales.  Broker-dealers may receive commissions or
      discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent
      for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated,
      but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of
      an
      agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in
      compliance with NASDR Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction
      a
      markup or markdown in compliance with NASDR IM-2440.

     

    In
      connection with the sale of the common stock or interests therein, the Selling
      Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other
      financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Common
      Stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume.  The Selling
      Stockholders may also sell shares of the common stock short and deliver these
      securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common
      stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities.  The
      Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with
      broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more
      derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other
      financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such
      broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this
      prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such
      transaction).

     

    The
      Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in
      selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the
      Securities Act in connection with such sales.  In such event, any
      commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the
      resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting
      commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.  Each Selling
      Stockholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral
      agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to
      distribute the Common Stock. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees,
      commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent
      (8%).

     

    The
      Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company
      incident to the registration of the shares.  The Company has agreed to
      indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages
      and
      liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

     

    Because
      Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of
      the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements
      of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder.  In addition, any
      securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule
      144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this
      prospectus.  There is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in
      connection with the proposed sale of the resale shares by the Selling
      Stockholders.

     

    We
      agreed
      to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which
      the
      shares may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and
      without regard to any volume limitations by reason of Rule 144(k) under the
      Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the shares
      have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities
      Act
      or any other rule of similar effect.  The resale shares will be sold
      only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under
      applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale
      shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale
      in
      the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification
      requirement is available and is complied with.

     

    Under
      applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged
      in
      the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage in market
      making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted
      period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the
      distribution.  In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject
      to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
      thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases
      and
      sales of shares of the common stock by the Selling Stockholders or any other
      person.  We will make copies of this prospectus available to the
      Selling Stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of
      this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the
      sale.
