organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of
Delaware (or such other applicable jurisdiction of incorporation or formation as
is indicated on Schedule 3.18), and is in good standing as a foreign corporation
or other entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business

necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing, as
the case may be, would not result in a Material Adverse Effect. Each of the
Company and the Subsidiaries has all requisite corporate power and authority to
carry on its business as now conducted and to carry out the transactions
contemplated hereby. Neither the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries is in

otherwise, shares of Common Stock or other securities to any Person (other than
the Purchasers) and will not result in a right of any holder of Company
securities to adjust the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price under
such securities.

appropriate federal, state, local or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to
conduct their businesses as described in the SEC Documents, except where the
failure to possess such permits does not, and could not have, individually or in

assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to carry on its business for
the current fiscal year as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted,

requirements and capital availability thereof; and (iii) the current cash flow
of the Company, together with the proceeds the Company would receive were it to
liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of
the cash, would be sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its debts
when such amounts are required to be paid. The Company has no present intention
to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into
account the timing and amounts of cash to be payable on or in respect of its

the Company, its business and the transactions contemplated hereby, including
the Schedules to this Agreement furnished by or on behalf of the Company, taken
as a whole is true and correct and does not contain any untrue statement of
material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the

properties, prospects, operations or financial conditions, which, under
applicable law, rule or regulation, requires public disclosure or announcement
by the Company but which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed. The

and, if applicable, its officers, directors, managers, members, shareholders
and/or partners necessary for the authorization, execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and therein, has been
taken. When executed and delivered, each of this Agreement and the Registration
Rights Agreement will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of such
Purchaser, enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with its terms,
except as such may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other
laws affecting creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles.
Such Purchaser has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into
each of this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, and to carry out
and perform its obligations under the terms of hereof and thereof.
4.2 PURCHASE ENTIRELY FOR OWN ACCOUNT. Such Purchaser is
acquiring the Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares for its own account
for investment and not for resale or with a view to distribution thereof in
violation of the Securities Act.

represents to the Company that it is an "accredited investor" as defined in Rule
501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and was not organized
for the purpose of acquiring any of the Shares, the Warrants or the Warrant
Shares. Such Purchaser's financial condition is such that it is able to bear the
risk of holding the Shares for an indefinite period of time and the risk of loss
of its entire investment. Such Purchaser has sufficient knowledge and experience
in investing in companies similar to the Company so as to be able to evaluate
the risks and merits of its investment in the Company.

exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and that the
Shares, the Warrants and the Warrant Shares must continue to be held by such
Purchaser unless a subsequent disposition thereof is registered under the
Securities Act or is exempt from such registration. Such Purchaser understands
13
that the exemptions from registration afforded by Rule 144 (the provisions of
which are known to it) promulgated under the Securities Act depend on the
satisfaction of various conditions, and that, if applicable, Rule 144 may afford
the basis for sales only in limited amounts.
4.5 NO CONFLICT. The execution and delivery of this Agreement
and the Registration Rights Agreement by such Purchaser, and the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, will not conflict with or
result in any violation of or default by such Purchaser (with or without notice
or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination,
cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to a loss of a material
benefit under (i) any provision of the organizational documents of such
Purchaser or (ii) any agreement or instrument, permit, franchise, license,
judgment, order, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulations, applicable to
such Purchaser.

"THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR
SOLD IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SAID
ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT
SUBJECT TO, REGISTRATION UNDER SAID ACT."
(b) The legend set forth in Section 6.2(a) shall be
removed from the certificates evidencing the Shares and the Warrant Shares, (i)
following any sale of such Shares or Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144 or any

Shares has submitted a written request for removal of the legend indicating that
the holder has complied with the applicable provisions of Rule 144 or such
17
judicial interpretation or pronouncement), or (iii) if such legend is not

time as such legend is no longer required under this Section 6.2(b), it will, no
later than three (3) business days following the delivery by a Purchaser to the
Company or the Company's transfer agent of a certificate representing the Shares
or Warrant Shares issued with a restrictive legend, deliver or cause to be
delivered to such Purchaser a certificate representing such Shares or Warrant
Shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends; provided that in the
case of removal of the legend for reasons set forth in clause (ii) above, the
holder of such Shares or Warrant Shares has submitted a written request for
removal of the legend indicating that the holder has complied with the
applicable provisions of Rule 144. The Company may not make any notation on its

laws, rules, regulations or stock exchange requirements, neither (i) the
Company, the Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates nor (ii) any Purchaser or
any of its Affiliates shall, without the written consent of the other, make any
public announcement or issue any press release with respect to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement. In no event will either (i) the Company, the
Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates or (ii) any Purchaser or any of its

to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without consulting with the
other party, to the extent feasible, as to the content of such public

Company or any of the Subsidiaries at any time after the Closing, except such
information as may be required to be disclosed to certain Board members, who are
affiliated with certain Purchasers, in their capacity as directors of the
Company. In the event of a breach of the foregoing covenant following the
Effective Date, or in the event that Company is legally required to make certain
disclosures to any Purchaser (and does so) following the Effective Date, then in
addition to any other remedy provided for herein, in the Transaction Documents
or in equity or at law, each Purchaser to whom information has been disclosed
(whether as a result of breach or as required by law) may request, in writing,
that the Company promptly (but in no event more than five (5) business days
after the date of such writing) publicly disclose, by press release, SEC filing,
18
or otherwise, an appropriate summary of the information that, in such
Purchaser's reasonable judgment, constitutes the then material non-public
information. After such five (5) business-day period, the Purchaser(s) who was
or were in receipt of such material non-public information shall be
automatically authorized to make all of the information, or any portion thereof,
available to the public generally, without incurring any liability to the
Company for such disclosure.
6.5 FILING OF INFORMATION. The Company covenants to timely
file (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable
grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company pursuant to all
applicable securities laws, including the Exchange Act. At any time if the

and furnish to the Purchasers and make publicly available in accordance with
paragraph (c) of Rule 144 such information as is required for the Purchasers to
sell the Shares and the Warrant Shares under Rule 144. The Company further
covenants that it will take such further action as any holder of Shares or
Warrant Shares may reasonably request to satisfy the provisions of Rule 144
applicable to the issuer of securities relating to transactions for the sale of
securities pursuant to Rule 144.

who waive their rights to participate in such rights offering as set forth in
Section 6.11 hereof) pursuant to a follow-on rights offering (the "RIGHTS
OFFERING"). Other than the Rights Offering, the Company shall not issue any
capital stock or other securities in connection with the raising of additional
financing or capital until all of the Shares have been registered for resale

Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock: (i) upon
conversion of the Warrants or other securities issuable upon conversion of

officers or directors of the Company pursuant to stock option, stock purchase or

of the proceeds from the sale of the Shares shall be used by the Company to
effect the MSV Transaction, pay the Company's fees and expenses incurred in
connection with this offering, pay the Company's fees and expenses incurred by
the Company in connection with the MSV Transaction and pay the Broker Fee to

solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as

under the Securities Act of the sale of the Shares or the issuance of the
Warrants or the Warrant Shares to the Purchasers.
6.9 PRE-EMPTIVE RIGHT. Each Purchaser shall have the right to
purchase a pro rata share of New Securities (as defined in this Section 6.9)
that the Company may, from time to time, propose to sell and issue. Each

Diluted Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of New
Securities. Each Purchaser shall also have the right of over-allotment to
purchase additional New Securities set forth in paragraph (b) of this Section
6.9. This pre-emptive right shall be subject to the following provisions:
(a) "NEW SECURITIES" shall mean any capital stock
(including Common Stock) of the Company whether now authorized or not, and any
rights, options or warrants to purchase such capital stock, and securities of
any type whatsoever that are, or may become, convertible into or exchangeable
for capital stock; provided that the term "New Securities" does not include
securities issued: (i) upon conversion of the Warrants or other securities
issuable upon conversion of securities outstanding on the date hereof, (ii) to
employees, consultants, officers or directors of the Company pursuant to stock
option, stock purchase or stock bonus plans or agreements or other stock
incentive plans or arrangements approved by the Board, which are in existence as
of the date hereof, (iii) pursuant to the acquisition of another business entity
or business segment of any such entity by the Company by merger, purchase of
substantially all the assets or other reorganization or corporate partnering
agreement if such issuance is approved by the Board, (iv) in connection with any
stock split, stock dividend or recapitalization of the Company, (v) in
connection with lease lines, bank loans, corporate partnering or other similar

(vi) to directors of the Company as compensation for their service as directors
pursuant to a restricted stock plan to be implemented and approved by the
stockholders of the Company; provided that such issuance of restricted stock
shall not exceed 100,000 shares per year; and (vii) pursuant to the Rights
Offering.
(b) In the event the Company proposes to undertake an
issuance of New Securities, it shall give each Purchaser certified written
notice of its intention, describing the type of New Securities, their price and
the general terms upon which the Company proposes to issue the same. Each
Purchaser shall have thirty (30) days after any such notice is mailed or
delivered to agree to purchase all or any portion of such Purchaser's pro rata
share of such New Securities for the price and upon the terms specified in the
notice by giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the quantity
of New Securities to be purchased. Each Purchaser shall have the right of
over-allotment such that if any Purchaser fails to exercise its right under this
Section 6.9 to purchase its full pro rata share of New Securities, the other
Purchasers may purchase the portion of such Purchaser's remaining portion on a
pro rata share within ten (10) days from the date such non-purchasing Purchaser
fails to exercise its right hereunder to purchase its full pro rata share of New
Securities.
20
(c) In the event the Purchasers fail to exercise the
pre-emptive right within such thirty (30) day period and after the expiration of
the ten (10) day period for the exercise of the over-allotment provisions of
this Section 6.9, the Company shall have ninety (90) days thereafter to sell the
New Securities respecting which the Purchasers' pre-emptive right set forth in
this Section 6.9 was not exercised, at a price and upon terms no more favorable
to the purchasers thereof or to the Company than specified in the Company's
notice to the Purchasers pursuant to Section 6.9(b) above. In the event the
Company has not sold the New Securities respecting which the Purchasers'
preemptive right set forth in the Section 6.9 was not exercised within such
ninety (90) day period, the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any New
Securities, without first again offering such securities to the Purchasers in
the manner provided in Section 6.9(b) above.

right with respect to the issuance of (a) the Shares, (b) the Warrants, (c) the

6.11 WAIVER OF PARTICIPATION IN RIGHTS OFFERING. Each
Purchaser hereby waives as to itself and its Affiliates the right to participate
in the Rights Offering.
6.12 RESERVATION OF COMMON STOCK FOR ISSUANCE; LISTING OF
SHARES. The Company agrees to reserve from its duly authorized capital stock the
total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon execution of this Agreement
and upon the exercise in full of the Warrants. The Company agrees that at any
time, if and when its shares of Common Stock are listed on NASDAQ, that it will
use reasonable efforts to promptly list and qualify the Shares and the Warrant

6.13 REQUIRED APPROVALS. As promptly as practicable after the
date of this Agreement, the Company shall make, or cause to be made, all filings

7. INDEMNIFICATION.
7.1 BY THE COMPANY. The Company agrees to indemnify, defend
and hold harmless each Purchaser and its Affiliates and their respective
officers, directors, agents, employees, subsidiaries, partners, members and
controlling persons (collectively, the "PURCHASER INDEMNITEES") to the fullest
extent permitted by law from and against any and all claims, losses,
liabilities, damages, deficiencies, judgments, assessments, fines, settlements,
costs or expenses (including interest, penalties and reasonable fees,
21
disbursements and other charges of counsel) (collectively, "LOSSES") based upon,
arising out of or otherwise in respect of any breach by the Company of any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Company contained in this
Agreement or in the Transaction Documents, or for any Losses claimed by Tejas or
any other broker or placement agent.
7.2 CLAIMS. All claims for indemnification by a Purchaser
Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 7 shall be made as follows:
(a) If a Purchaser Indemnitee has incurred or
suffered Losses for which it is entitled to indemnification under this Section
7, then such Purchaser Indemnitee shall give prompt written notice of such claim
(a "CLAIM NOTICE") to the Company. Each Claim Notice shall state the amount of
claimed Losses (the "CLAIMED AMOUNT"), if known, and the basis for such claim.
(b) Within 30 days after delivery of a Claim Notice,
the Company (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") shall provide to each Purchaser
Indemnitee (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY"), a written response (the "RESPONSE NOTICE")
in which the Indemnifying Party shall: (i) agree that all of the Claimed Amount
is owed to the Indemnified Party, (ii) agree that part, but not all, of the
Claimed Amount (the "AGREED AMOUNT") is owed to the Indemnified Party, or (iii)
contest that any of the Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnified Party. The
Indemnifying Party may contest the payment of all or a portion of the Claimed
Amount only based upon a good faith belief that all or such portion of the
Claimed Amount does not constitute Losses for which the Indemnified Party is
entitled to indemnification under this Section 7. If no Response Notice is
delivered by the Indemnifying Party within such 30-day period, then the
Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have agreed that all of the Claimed Amount
is owed to the Indemnified Party.
(c) If the Indemnifying Party in the Response Notice
agrees (or is deemed to have agreed) that all of the Claimed Amount is owed to
the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall owe to the Indemnified
Party an amount equal to the Claimed Amount to be paid in the manner set forth
in this Section 8. If the Indemnifying Party in the Response Notice agrees that
part, but not all, of the Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnified Party, then
the Indemnifying Party shall owe to the Indemnified Party an amount equal to the
agreed amount set forth in such Response Notice to be paid in the manner set
forth in this Section 8. The parties agree that the foregoing shall not be
deemed to provide that the Indemnifying Party is entitled to make a binding
determination regarding any disputed amounts owed to an Indemnified Party,
unless such Indemnified Party accepts and agrees to such determination, and both
the Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party shall retain all rights and
remedies available to such party hereunder.
(d) No delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in
notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any
liability or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any actual prejudice
caused by or arising out of such delay.
7.3. PAYMENT OF CLAIMS. An Indemnifying Party shall make
payment of any portion of any Claimed Amount that such Indemnifying Party has
agreed in a Response Notice that it owes to an Indemnified Party, or that such
Indemnifying Party is deemed to have agreed it owes to such Indemnifying Party,
said payment to be made within thirty (30) days after such Response Notice is
delivered by such Indemnifying Party or should have been delivered by such
Indemnifying Party, as the case may be.
22
7.4. LIMITATIONS.
(a) TIME FOR CLAIMS. No Indemnifying Party will be
liable for any Losses hereunder arising out of a breach of representation or
warranty unless a written claim for indemnification is given by the Indemnified
Party to the Indemnifying Party on or prior to the third anniversary of the date
on which the registration statement covering the resale of the Shares initially
became effective.
(b) MAXIMUM AMOUNT. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, no Indemnifying Party will be liable for any
Losses to any Purchaser Indemnitee hereunder in excess of the portion of the
aggregate purchase price hereunder actually paid by the related Purchaser.
7.5 APPLICABILITY; EXCLUSIVITY. Notwithstanding any term to
the contrary in this Section 7, the indemnification and contribution provisions
of the Registration Rights Agreement shall govern any claim made with respect to
registration statements filed pursuant thereto or sales made thereunder. The
parties hereby acknowledge and agree that in addition to remedies of the parties
hereto in respect of any and all claims relating to any breach or purported
breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement that is contained
in this Agreement pursuant to the indemnification provisions of this Section 8,
all parties shall always retain the right to pursue and obtain injunctive relief
in addition to any other rights or remedies hereunder.
8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.
8.1 RIGHTS CUMULATIVE. Each and all of the various rights,
powers and remedies of the parties shall be considered to be cumulative with and
in addition to any other rights, powers and remedies which such parties may have
at law or in equity in the event of the breach of any of the terms of this
Agreement. The exercise or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy shall
neither constitute the exclusive election thereof nor the waiver of any other
right, power or remedy available to such party.
8.2 PRONOUNS. All pronouns or any variation thereof shall be
deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine or neuter, singular or plural, as the
identity of the person, persons, entity or entities may require.

courier or telecopy (with confirmation of receipt), or delivered by hand to the
