    “D.  Calculation of Consideration
Received.  In case any option is issued in connection with the
issue or sale of other securities of the Company, together comprising one
integrated transaction in which no specific consideration is allocated to such
options by the parties thereto, then solely for purposes of this Section 3, the
options will be deemed to have been issued for a consideration of
$0.01.  If any Common Stock or Convertible Securities (other than
shares or options issued or which may be issued pursuant to the Incentive Plan
up to the Incentive Plan Limit) are issued or sold or deemed to have been issued
or sold for cash, the consideration received therefor will be deemed to be the
gross amount received by the Company therefor.  If any Common Stock or
Convertible Securities (other than shares or options issued or which may be
issued pursuant to the Incentive Plan up to the Incentive Plan Limit) are issued
or sold for a consideration other than cash, the amount of the consideration
other than cash received by the Company will be the fair value of such
consideration, except where such consideration consists of marketable
securities, in which case the amount of consideration received by the Company
will be the arithmetic average of the Fair Market Prices of such securities
during the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on the date of receipt of
such securities.  The fair value of any consideration other than cash
or securities will be determined jointly by the Company, the Holder, and
Manchester.  If such parties are unable to reach agreement within ten
(10) days after the occurrence of an event requiring valuation (the “Valuation
Event”), the fair value of such consideration will be determined within five (5)
Business Days after the tenth (10th) day
following the Valuation Event by an independent, reputable appraiser selected by
the Company and the holders of the Notes.”

    

    
      	
              g.  

            	
              Replace
      Section
      3(e) in its entirety with the
following:

            

    

    

    “No
Fractions.  Upon a conversion hereunder the Company shall not
be required to issue stock certificates representing fractions of shares of
Common Stock, but may if otherwise permitted, make a cash payment in respect of
any final fraction of a share based on the Fair Market Price of a share of
Common Stock at such time.  If the Company elects not, or is unable,
to make such cash payment, the Holder shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of
the final fraction of a share, one whole share of Common Stock.”

    

    
      	
              h.  

            	
              Replace
      Section
      4(b) in its entirety with the
following:

            

    

    

    “(b)  Remedies.  If
an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to any of the ISCO
Notes, the Holder may declare all of the then outstanding Principal Amount of
this Note and all other ISCO Notes held by the Holder, including any interest
due thereon, to be due and payable immediately, except that in the case of an
Event of Default arising from events described in clauses (vii) and (viii) of
Section 4(a) hereof, this Note shall become due and payable without further
action or notice.  In the event of an acceleration, the amount due and
owing to the Holder shall be the greater of (1) 110% of the outstanding
Principal Amount of the ISCO Notes held by the Holder (plus all accrued and
unpaid interest, if any) and (2) the product of (A) the highest Fair Market
Price for the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding the Holder’s
acceleration and (B) the Conversion Ratio.  In either case the Company
shall pay interest on such amount in cash at the Default Rate to the Holder if
such amount is not paid within seven days of Holder’s request.  The
remedies under this Note shall be cumulative.”

    

    3. The Notes
and the January 2008 Note are hereby amended as follows:

    

    Replace
Section 3(d) in
its entirety with the following:

    

    “(d)  Reservation and Issuance of
Underlying Securities.  The Company covenants that it will at
all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common
Stock solely for the purpose of issuance upon conversion of this Note (including
repayments in stock), free from preemptive rights or any other actual contingent
purchase rights of persons other than the Holder and the holders of the Amended
and Restated Notes, not less than an amount equal to the number of Conversion
Shares.  The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that
shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable.”

    

    4. The 9 1⁄2%
Note is hereby amended as follows:

    

    Include
in the definitions section:

    

    “ISCO
Notes means collectively the Notes and the Prior ISCO Notes.”

    

    5. The 9 1/2 % Note is hereby amended by deleting
Section
3(i) thereof in its
entirety.

     

    6. The Company, Alexander and Manchester agree and
acknowledge that any delisting or deregistration of the Company’s Common Stock
by the NYSE Alternext US does not constitute a “going private” transaction under
the definition of “Change of Control Transaction,” in the Notes and the January
2008 Note.

     

    7. The
Company, Alexander and Manchester agree and acknowledge that this Amendment has
been made and entered into in compliance with Section 6(c) of the Notes and the
January 2008 Note.

     

    8. The Company’s execution, delivery and performance of
this Amendment does not violate any material term, provision or covenant of any
agreement that is currently in effect between the Company and either of
Alexander or Manchester.

     

    9. The Notes
and the January 2008 Note, as amended hereby, shall remain in full force and
effect and all terms hereof are hereby ratified and confirmed by the Company.
Except for specifically provided herein, all other terms and conditions of the
Notes shall remain in full force and effect.  Except with respect to
the Notes and the January 2008 Note, nothing
contained in this Amendment shall be deemed to be or construed as a waiver or
modification of any terms or provisions of any agreement between Alexander and
the Company or Manchester and the Company, or any rights of Alexander or
Manchester arising thereunder as a result of the Company’s execution, delivery
and performance of this Amendment.

     

    10. Any and
all references to the Notes and the January 2008 Note and any instrument
previously and now hereafter executed by the Company shall be deemed to refer to
the Notes and the January 2008 Note as amended by this Amendment and any
future amendments hereafter entered into between the Company and
Alexander.
