afforded by Section 4(2) of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the
rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”),

Trading Market and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported in the “Pink
Sheets” published by the Pink Sheets, LLC (or a similar organization or agency
succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per
share of the Common Stock so reported; or (iii) in all other cases, the
fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent
appraiser selected in good faith by the Purchaser and reasonably acceptable to
the Company.

sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Securities”.
1.4 Warrants. At

each numbered Schedule corresponding to the section number herein), as
follows:
(a) Organization, Good Standing
and Power. The Company is a corporation duly incorporated, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has
the requisite corporate power to own, lease and operate its properties and

hereto. The Company and each such Subsidiary (as defined in Section 2.1(g)) is
duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing
in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property
owned by it makes such qualification necessary except for any jurisdiction(s)
(alone or in the aggregate) in which the failure to be so qualified will not
have a Material Adverse Effect. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Material Adverse
Effect” means any material adverse effect on the business, operations,
properties, prospects, or financial condition of the Company and its
Subsidiaries and/or any condition, circumstance, or situation that would
prohibit or otherwise materially interfere with the ability of the Company to
perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the Transaction
Documents in any material respect.

the Company, dated as of the Closing Date, substantially in the form of Exhibit D attached
hereto (the “Officer’s
Certificate”) (collectively, the “Transaction
Documents”) and to issue and sell the Securities in accordance with the
terms hereof. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction
Documents by the Company and each Subsidiary of the Company party thereto and
the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly
and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and, except as set
forth on Schedule
2.1(b), no further consent or authorization of the Company, any
Subsidiary or their respective Boards of Directors or stockholders is required.
When executed and delivered by the Company and each Subsidiary of the Company
party thereto, each of the Transaction Documents shall constitute a valid and
binding obligation of the Company and each Subsidiary, as applicable,
enforceable against the Company and each Subsidiary, as applicable, in
accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by
applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship,
receivership or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement
of, creditor’s rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general
application.

entitled to preemptive rights or registration rights and there are no
outstanding options, warrants, scrip, rights to subscribe to, calls or
commitments of any character whatsoever relating to, or securities or rights

except as set forth in this Agreement and as set forth on Schedule 2.1(c)
hereto, there are no equity plans, contracts, commitments, understandings, or
arrangements by which the Company is or may become bound to issue additional

convertible into shares of capital stock of the Company. Except for customary
transfer restrictions contained in agreements entered into by the Company in
order to sell restricted securities or as provided on Schedule 2.1(c)
hereto, the Company is not a party to or bound by any agreement or understanding
granting registration or anti-dilution rights to any person with respect to any
of its equity or debt securities. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(c), the
Company is not a party to, and it has no knowledge of, any agreement or
understanding restricting the voting or transfer of any shares of the capital
stock of the Company. The Company has not made any representations regarding
equity incentives to any officer, employee, director or consultant that are not
disclosed in the Public Filings.
(d) Issuance of
Securities. The Securities to be issued at the Closing have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and, when paid for or
issued in accordance with the terms hereof, the Securities shall be validly
issued and outstanding, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and rights of
refusal of any kind. When the Conversion Shares are issued in

the issuance of the Securities as contemplated hereby, do not and will not (i)
violate or conflict with any provision of the Company’s Certificate of

Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), each as
amended to date, or any Subsidiary’s comparable charter documents, subject to
the filing of an amendment to the Certificate to increase the authorized shares,
(ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or

agreement, instrument or obligation to which the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries’
respective properties or assets are bound, (iii) result in a violation of any
federal, state, local or foreign statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or
decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable
to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are bound or affected, or (iv) create or
impose a lien, mortgage, security interest, charge or encumbrance of any nature

their respective properties or assets are bound, except, in the case of clause
(ii), for such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, acceleration,
cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate,
have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
is required under federal, state, foreign or local law, rule or regulation to
obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or
registration with, any court or governmental agency in order for it to execute,
deliver or perform any of its obligations under the Transaction Documents, issue

the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder and other federal,
state and local laws, rules and regulations applicable to such documents, and
the Form 10-K did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading. As of their respective dates, the financial
statements of the Company included in the Commission Documents complied as to
form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the
published rules and regulations of the SEC or other applicable rules and
regulations with respect thereto. Such financial statements have been prepared

consistent basis during the periods involved (except (i) as may be otherwise
indicated in such financial statements or the notes thereto or (ii) in the case
of unaudited interim statements, to the extent they may not include footnotes or
may be condensed or summary statements), and fairly present in all material
respects the financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the
dates thereof and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then
ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit
adjustments).

similar functions are at the time owned directly or indirectly by the Company
and/or any of its other Subsidiaries. All of the outstanding shares of capital
stock of each Subsidiary have been duly authorized and validly issued, and are

options, warrants or agreements granted or issued by or binding upon any

Subsidiary or any other securities convertible into, exchangeable for or
evidencing the rights to subscribe for any shares of such capital stock. Neither
the Company nor any Subsidiary is subject to any obligation (contingent or
otherwise) to repurchase or otherwise acquire or retire any shares of the
capital stock of any Subsidiary or any convertible securities, rights, warrants
or options of the type described in the preceding sentence except as set forth
on Schedule
2.1(g) hereto. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is party to, nor

those incurred in the ordinary course of the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’
respective businesses or which, individually or in the aggregate, are not
reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Circumstances. Since December 31, 2008, except as disclosed on Schedule 2.1(j)
hereto, no event or circumstance has occurred or exists with respect to the

or regulation, requires public disclosure or announcement by the Company but
which has not been so publicly announced or disclosed.
(k) Indebtedness. Schedule 2.1(k)
hereto sets forth as of the Closing Date all outstanding secured and unsecured

other amounts owed, (b) all guaranties, endorsements and other contingent
obligations in respect of Indebtedness of others, whether or not the same are or
should be reflected in the Company’s balance sheet (or the notes thereto),
except guaranties by endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or

and personal property reflected in the Public Filings, free and clear of any
mortgages, pledges, charges, liens, security interests or other encumbrances,
except for those indicated on Schedule 2.1(l)
hereto or such that, individually or in the aggregate, do not cause a Material
Adverse Effect. Any leases of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries are valid
and subsisting and in full force and effect.
7.
(m) Actions Pending.
There is no action, suit, claim, investigation, arbitration, alternate dispute
resolution proceeding or other proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of the
Company, threatened against the Company or any Subsidiary which questions the
validity of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or any of
the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or to be
taken pursuant hereto or thereto. Except as set forth in the Public Filings or
on Schedule
2.1(m) hereto, there is no action, suit, claim, investigation,
arbitration, alternate dispute resolution proceeding or other proceeding pending
or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or involving the
Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective properties or assets, which
individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected, if adversely
determined, to have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no outstanding orders,
judgments, injunctions, awards or decrees of any court, arbitrator or
governmental or regulatory body against the Company or any Subsidiary or any
officers or directors of the Company or Subsidiary in their capacities as such,
which individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.
(n) Compliance with Law.
The Company and its Subsidiaries have been and are presently conducting their
respective businesses in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local
governmental laws, rules, regulations and ordinances, except such that,
individually or in the aggregate, the noncompliance therewith could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and each
of its Subsidiaries have all franchises, permits, licenses, consents and other
governmental or regulatory authorizations and approvals necessary for the
conduct of its business as now being conducted by it unless the failure to
possess such franchises, permits, licenses, consents and other governmental or
regulatory authorizations and approvals, individually or in the aggregate, could
not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(o) Taxes. The Company
and each of the Subsidiaries has accurately prepared and filed all federal,
state and other tax returns required by law to be filed by it, has paid or made
provisions for the payment of all taxes shown to be due and all additional
assessments, and adequate provisions have been and are reflected in the
financial statements of the Company and the Subsidiaries for all current taxes
and other charges to which the Company or any Subsidiary is subject and which
are not currently due and payable. Except as disclosed on Schedule 2.1(o)
hereto or in the Public Filings, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, none of
the federal income tax returns of the Company or any Subsidiary have been
audited by the Internal Revenue Service. Except as disclosed on Schedule 2.1(o)
hereto or in the Public Filings, the Company has no knowledge of any additional
assessments, adjustments or contingent tax liability (whether federal or state)
of any nature whatsoever, whether pending or threatened against the Company or
any Subsidiary for any period, nor of any basis for any such assessment,
adjustment or contingency.
(p) Certain Fees. Except
as set forth on Schedule 2.1(p)
hereto, the Company has not employed any broker or finder or incurred any
liability for any brokerage or investment banking fees, commissions, finders’
structuring fees, financial advisory fees or other similar fees in connection

for the information concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
the Company confirms that neither it nor any other person acting on its behalf
has provided any of the Purchasers or their agents or counsel with any
information that constitutes or might constitute material, nonpublic
information. To the best of the Company’s knowledge, neither this Agreement or
the Schedules hereto nor any other documents, certificates or instruments
furnished to the Purchasers by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary
in order to make the statements made herein or therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made herein or therein, not
misleading.
(r) Operation of
Business. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(r)
hereto, the Company and each of the Subsidiaries owns or possesses the rights to
all patents, trademarks, domain names (whether or not registered) and any
patentable improvements or copyrightable derivative works thereof, websites and
intellectual property rights relating thereto, service marks, trade names,
copyrights, licenses and authorizations which are necessary for the conduct of
its business as now conducted without any conflict with the rights of
others.
(s) Environmental
Compliance. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries have obtained all
material approvals, authorization, certificates, consents, licenses, orders and
permits or other similar authorizations of all governmental authorities, or from
any other person, that are required under any Environmental Laws. “Environmental
Laws” shall mean all applicable laws relating to the protection of the
environment including, without limitation, all requirements pertaining to
reporting, licensing, permitting, controlling, investigating or remediating
emissions, discharges, releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances,
chemical substances, pollutants, contaminants or toxic substances, materials or
wastes, whether solid, liquid or gaseous in nature, into the air, surface water,
groundwater or land, or relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution,
use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport or handling of hazardous
substances, chemical substances, pollutants, contaminants or toxic substances,
material or wastes, whether solid, liquid or gaseous in nature. The Company has
all necessary governmental approvals required under all Environmental Laws as
necessary for the Company’s business or the business of any of its subsidiaries.
To the best of the Company’s knowledge, the Company and each of its subsidiaries
are also in compliance with all other limitations, restrictions, conditions,
standards, requirements, schedules and timetables required or imposed under all
Environmental Laws. Except for such instances as would not individually or in
the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect, there are no past or present
events, conditions, circumstances, incidents, actions or omissions relating to
or in any way affecting the Company or its Subsidiaries that violate or may
violate any Environmental Law after the Closing Date or that may give rise to
any environmental liability, or otherwise form the basis of any claim, action,
demand, suit, proceeding, hearing, study or investigation (i) under any
Environmental Law, or (ii) based on or related to the manufacture, processing,
distribution, use, treatment, storage (including without limitation underground
storage tanks), disposal, transport or handling, or the emission, discharge,
release or threatened release of any hazardous substance.
9.
(t) Books and Records; Internal
Accounting Controls. The records and documents of the Company and its
Subsidiaries accurately reflect in all material respects the information
relating to the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries, the location and
collection of their assets, and the nature of all transactions giving rise to
the obligations or accounts receivable of the Company or any Subsidiary. The
Company is in material compliance with all provisions of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act
of 2002 which are applicable to it as of the Closing Date. The Company and its
Subsidiaries maintain 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 SEC’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.
(u) Material Agreements.
Except as disclosed in the Public Filings or as set forth on Schedule 2.1(u)
hereto, or as would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect,
(i) the Company and each of its Subsidiaries have performed all obligations
required to be performed by them to date under any written or oral contract,
instrument, agreement, commitment, obligation, plan or arrangement, filed or
required to be filed with the SEC (the “Material
Agreements”), (ii) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has
received any notice of default under any Material Agreement and, (iii) to the
best of the Company’s knowledge, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
is in default under any Material Agreement now in effect.
(v) Transactions with
Affiliates. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.1(v)
hereto or in the Public Filings and otherwise contemplated by this Agreement,
there are no loans, leases, agreements, contracts, royalty agreements,
management contracts or arrangements or other continuing transactions between
(a) the Company, any Subsidiary or any of their respective customers or
suppliers on the one hand, and (b) on the other hand, any officer, employee,
consultant or director of the Company, or any of its Subsidiaries, or any person
owning at least 5% of the outstanding capital stock of the Company or any
Subsidiary or any member of the immediate family of such officer, employee,
consultant, director or stockholder or any corporation or other entity
controlled by such officer, employee, consultant, director or stockholder, or a
member of the immediate family of such officer, employee, consultant, director
or stockholder which, in each case, is required to be disclosed in the
Commission Documents or in the Company’s most recently filed definitive proxy
statement on Schedule 14A, that is not so disclosed in the Commission Documents
or in such proxy statement.

1933. The Company has complied and will comply with all applicable
federal and state securities laws in connection with the offer, issuance and
sale of the Securities hereunder. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its

any person, or has taken or will take any action so as to bring the issuance and
sale of any of the Securities under the registration provisions of the

Status. The Company is not, and as a result of and immediately upon the
Closing will not be, an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an
“investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended.
12.
(aa) Independent Nature of
Purchasers. The Company acknowledges that the obligations of each
Purchaser under the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the
obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any
way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under the
Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges that the decision of each
Purchaser to purchase Securities pursuant to this Agreement has been made by
such Purchaser independently of any other purchase and independently of any
information, materials, statements or opinions as to the business, affairs,
operations, assets, properties, liabilities, results of operations, condition
(financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company or of its Subsidiaries
which may have made or given by any other Purchaser or by any agent or employee
of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser or any of its agents or employees shall
have any liability to any Purchaser (or any other person) relating to or arising
from any such information, materials, statements or opinions. The Company
acknowledges that nothing contained herein, or in any Transaction Document, and
no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to
constitute the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or
any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Purchasers are in any
way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The Company acknowledges
that for reasons of administrative convenience only, the Transaction Documents
have been prepared by counsel for one of the Purchasers and such counsel does
not represent all of the Purchasers but only such Purchaser and the other
Purchasers have retained their own individual counsel with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby. The Company acknowledges that it has elected
to provide all Purchasers with the same terms and Transaction Documents for the
convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so
by the Purchasers. The Company acknowledges that such procedure with respect to
the Transaction Documents in no way creates a presumption that the Purchasers
are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to the Transaction
Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. The Company
acknowledges that each Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and
enforce its rights, including without limitation, the rights arising out of this
Agreement or out of the other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be
necessary for any other Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any
proceeding for such purpose.
(bb) No Integrated
Offering. Neither the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor any person
acting on its or their behalf, has directly or indirectly made any offers or
sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under
circumstances that would cause the offering of the Securities pursuant to this
Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of
the Securities Act which would prevent the Company from selling the Securities
pursuant to Regulation D and Rule 506 thereof under the Securities Act nor will
the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries take any action or steps
that would cause the offering of the Securities to be integrated with other
offerings if to do so would prevent the Company from selling Securities pursuant
to Regulation D and Rule 506 thereof under the Securities Act or otherwise
prevent a completed offering of Securities hereunder. Except as set
forth on Schedule
2.1(bb) hereto, the Company does not have any registration statement
pending before the SEC or currently under the SEC’s review and since December
31, 2008, the Company has not offered or sold any of its equity securities or
debt securities convertible into shares of Common Stock.
(cc) Dilutive Effect. The
Company understands and acknowledges that its obligation to issue Conversion
Shares upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with this Agreement and the
Notes is absolute and unconditional regardless of the dilutive effect that such
issuance may have on the ownership interest of other stockholders of the
Company.
(dd) DTC Status. Except as
set forth on Schedule
2.1(dd) hereto, the Company’s transfer agent is a participant in and the
Common Stock is eligible for transfer pursuant to the Depository Trust Company
Automated Securities Transfer Program. The name, address, telephone number, fax
number, contact person and email of the Company transfer agent is set forth
on Schedule
2.1(dd) hereto.
13.
(ee) Governmental
Approvals. Except for the filing of any notice prior or subsequent to the
Closing that may be required under applicable state and/or federal securities
laws (which if required, shall be filed on a timely basis) and the declaration
of the effectiveness of any registration statements filed by the Company
pursuant to the Transaction Documents, no authorization, consent, approval,
license, exemption of, filing or registration with any court or governmental
department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, domestic or
foreign, is or will be necessary for, or in connection with, the execution or
delivery of the Conversion Shares, or for the performance by the Company of its
obligations under the Transaction Documents.
(ff) Insurance. The
Company and each of its Subsidiaries are insured by insurers of recognized
financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as
management of the Company believes to be prudent and customary in the businesses
in which the Company and its Subsidiaries are engaged. Neither the Company nor
any such Subsidiary has been refused any insurance coverage sought or applied
for and neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has any 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 at a cost that would not have a Material
Adverse Effect.
(gg) Trading
Activities. It is understood and acknowledged by the Company
that none of the Purchasers have been asked to agree, nor has any Purchaser
agreed, to desist from purchasing or selling, long and/or short, securities of
the Company, or “derivative” securities based on securities issued by the
Company or to hold the Securities for any specified term. The Company
further understands and acknowledges that one or more Purchasers may engage in
hedging and/or trading activities at various times during the period that the
Securities are outstanding, including, without limitation, during the periods
that the value of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares are being determined
and (b) such hedging and/or trading activities, if any, can reduce the value of
the existing stockholders’ equity interest in the Company both at and after the
time the hedging and/or trading activities are being conducted. The
Company acknowledges that such aforementioned hedging and/or trading activities,
assuming such trading and hedging activities are in compliance with all
applicable securities laws, do not constitute a breach of this Agreement, the
Notes, the Warrants or any of the documents executed in connection
herewith.
2.2 Representations and
Warranties of the Purchasers. Each of the Purchasers hereby represents
and warrants to the Company with respect solely to itself and not with respect
to any other Purchaser as follows as of the date hereof and as of the Closing
Date:
(a) Organization and Standing of
the Purchasers. If the Purchaser is an entity, such Purchaser is a
corporation, limited liability company or partnership duly incorporated or
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization.
14.
(b) Authorization and
Power. Each Purchaser has the requisite power and authority to enter into
and perform the Transaction Documents and to purchase the Securities being sold
to it hereunder. The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction
Documents by each Purchaser and the consummation by it of the transactions
contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or
partnership action, and no further consent or authorization of such Purchaser or
its Board of Directors, stockholders, or partners, as the case may be, is
required. When executed and delivered by the Purchasers, the other Transaction
Documents shall constitute valid and binding obligations of each Purchaser
enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with their terms, except as
such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship, receivership or
similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditor’s
rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general
application.
(c) Acquisition for
Investment. Each Purchaser is purchasing the Securities solely for its
own account and not with a view to or for sale in connection with distribution.
Each Purchaser does not have a present intention to sell any of the Securities,
nor a present arrangement (whether or not legally binding) or intention to
effect any distribution of any of the Securities to or through any person or
entity; provided, however, that by
making the representations herein, such Purchaser does not agree to hold the
Securities for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to
dispose of the Securities at any time in accordance with federal and state
securities laws applicable to such disposition. Each Purchaser acknowledges that
it (i) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters such
that Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of Purchaser’s
investment in the Company, (ii) is able to bear the financial risks associated
with an investment in the Securities and (iii) has been given full access to
such records of the Company and the Subsidiaries and to the officers of the
Company and the Subsidiaries as it has deemed necessary or appropriate to
conduct its due diligence investigation.
(d) Rule 144. Each
Purchaser understands that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless such
Securities are registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from
registration is available. Each Purchaser acknowledges that such person is
familiar with Rule 144 of the rules and regulations of the SEC, as amended,
promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), and that
such Purchaser has been advised that Rule 144 permits resales only under certain
circumstances. Each Purchaser understands that to the extent that Rule 144 is
not available, such Purchaser will be unable to sell any Securities without
either registration under the Securities Act or the existence of another
exemption from such registration requirement.
(e) General. Each
Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered and sold in reliance
on a transactional exemption from the registration requirements of federal and
state securities laws and the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of
the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings
of such Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of
such exemptions and the suitability of such Purchaser to acquire the Securities.
Each Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any
government or governmental agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or
endorsement of the Securities. Commencing on the date that the Purchasers were
initially contacted regarding an investment in the Securities, none of the
Purchasers has engaged in any short sale of the Common Stock and will not engage
in any short sale of the Common Stock prior to public announcement of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement pursuant to Section
3.10.
15.
(f) No General
Solicitation. Each Purchaser acknowledges that the Securities were not
offered to such Purchaser by means of any form of general or public solicitation
or general advertising, or publicly disseminated advertisements or sales
literature, including (i) any advertisement, article, notice or other
communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media, or
broadcast over television or radio, or (ii) any seminar or meeting to which such
Purchaser was invited by any of the foregoing means of communications. Each
Purchaser, in making the decision to purchase the Securities, has relied upon
independent investigation made by it and has not relied on any information or
representations made by third parties, and was not solicited through Company’s
pending registration statement as described on Schedule 2.1(bb).
(g) Accredited Investor.
Each Purchaser is an “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation
D), and such Purchaser has such experience in business and financial matters
that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the
Securities. Such Purchaser is not required to be registered as a broker-dealer
under Section 15 of the Exchange Act and such Purchaser is not a broker-dealer.
Each Purchaser acknowledges that an investment in the Securities is speculative
and involves a high degree of risk.
(h) Certain Fees. The
Purchasers have not employed any broker or finder or incurred any liability for
any brokerage or investment banking fees, commissions, finders’ structuring
fees, financial advisory fees or other similar fees in connection with the
Transaction Documents.
(i) Independent
Investment. No Purchaser has agreed to act with any other Purchaser for
the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of the Securities
purchased hereunder for purposes of Section 13(d) under the Exchange Act, and
each Purchaser is acting independently with respect to its investment in the
Securities.

COVENANTS
Unless
otherwise specified in this Article, for so long as any Notes have not been paid
in full or converted in full, the Company covenants with each Purchaser as
follows, which covenants are for the benefit of each Purchaser and their
respective permitted assignees.
3.1 Securities
Compliance. The Company shall notify the SEC in accordance with its rules
and regulations, of the transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction
Documents and shall take all other necessary action and proceedings as may be
required and permitted by applicable law, rule and regulation, for the legal and
valid issuance of the Securities to the Purchasers, or their respective
subsequent holders.
16.
3.2 Registration and
Listing. The Company shall cause its Common Stock to continue to be
registered under Sections 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, to comply in all
respects with its reporting and filing obligations under the Exchange Act and to
not take any action or file any document (whether or not permitted by the
Securities Act or the rules promulgated thereunder) to terminate or suspend such
registration or to terminate or suspend its reporting and filing obligations
under the Exchange Act or Securities Act. The Company will take all action
necessary to continue the listing or trading of its Common Stock on the Over the
Counter Bulletin Board (the “Principal Market”).
The Company further covenants that it will take such further action as the
Purchasers may reasonably request from time to time to enable the Purchasers to
sell the Securities without registration under the Securities Act pursuant to
the exemption provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. Upon
the request of the Purchasers, the Company shall deliver to the Purchasers a
written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied
with such requirements.
3.3 Inspection Rights.
Provided the same would not be in violation of Regulation FD, the Company shall
permit, during normal business hours and upon reasonable request and reasonable
notice, each Purchaser or any employees, agents or representatives thereof, so

shall beneficially own any Conversion Shares, for purposes reasonably related to
such Purchaser’s interests as a stockholder, to examine the publicly available,
non-confidential records and books of account of, and visit and inspect the
properties, assets, operations and business of the Company and any Subsidiary,
and to discuss the publicly available, non-confidential affairs, finances and
accounts of the Company and any Subsidiary with any of its officers,
consultants, directors, and key employees.
3.4 Compliance with Laws.
The Company shall comply, and cause each Subsidiary to comply, with all
applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders, noncompliance with which would
be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
3.5 Keeping of Records and Books
of Account. The Company shall keep and cause each Subsidiary to keep
adequate records and books of account, in which complete entries will be made in
accordance with GAAP consistently applied, reflecting all financial transactions
of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and in which, for each fiscal year, all
proper reserves for depreciation, depletion, obsolescence, amortization, taxes,
bad debts and other purposes in connection with its business shall be
made.
3.6 Reporting
Requirements. If the Company ceases to file its periodic reports with the
SEC, or if the SEC ceases making these periodic reports available via the
Internet without charge, then the Company shall furnish the following to each
Purchaser so long as such Purchaser shall be obligated hereunder to purchase the
Securities or shall beneficially own Securities:
(a) Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-Q (or an equivalent form), including financial statements,
promptly following the end of each quarter, and in any event within 45 days of

practical after the document is filed with the SEC, and in any event within five
days after the document is filed with the SEC; and

contemporaneously with the delivery of such notices or information to such
holders of Common Stock.
3.7 Other Agreements. The
Company shall not enter into any agreement in which the terms of such agreement
would restrict or impair the right or ability to perform of the Company or any
Subsidiary under any Transaction Document.
3.8 Use of Proceeds. The
proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder shall be used by the Company
for general corporate purposes. In no event shall the proceeds be used to redeem
any Common Stock or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable into
Common Stock or to settle any outstanding litigation.
3.9 Reporting
Status. So long as a Purchaser beneficially owns any of the
Securities, the Company shall timely file all reports required to be filed with
the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act, and the Company shall not terminate its
status as an issuer required to file reports under the Exchange Act even if the
Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder would permit such
termination.
3.10 Disclosure of
Transaction. The Company shall issue a press release describing the
material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Press Release”) on
the date of execution of this Agreement but in no event later than one hour
after the execution of this Agreement; provided, however, that if the
execution of this Agreement occurs after 4:00 P.M. Eastern Time on any Trading
Day, the Company shall issue the Press Release no later than 9:00 A.M. Eastern
Time on the first Trading Day following such date of execution. The Company
shall also file with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Form 8-K”) describing

of Note and the Press Release) as soon as practicable following the Closing Date
but in no event more than one Trading Day following the Closing Date, which
Press Release and Form 8-K shall be subject to prior review and comment by the
Purchasers. “Trading

Common Stock is traded shall be open for trading.
3.11 Disclosure of Material
Information. The Company covenants and agrees that neither it nor any
other person acting on its behalf has provided or will provide any Purchaser or
its agents or counsel with any information that the Company believes constitutes
material non-public information, unless prior thereto such Purchaser shall have
executed a written agreement regarding the confidentiality and use of such
information. The Company understands and confirms that each Purchaser shall be
relying on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities
of the Company. In the event of a breach of the foregoing covenant by the
Company, or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers,
directors, employees and agents, in addition to any other remedy provided herein
or in the Transaction Documents, the Company shall publicly disclose any
material, non-public information in a Form 8-K within one business day of the
date that it discloses such information to any Purchaser. In the event that the
Company discloses any material, non-public information to a Purchaser and fails
to publicly file a Form 8-K in accordance with the above, a Purchaser shall have
the right to make a public disclosure, in the form of a press release, public
advertisement or otherwise, of such material, nonpublic information without the
prior approval by the Company, its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their
respective officers, directors, employees or agents. No Purchaser shall have any
liability to the Company, its Subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective
officers, directors, employees, stockholders or agents, for any such
disclosure.
18.
3.12 Pledge of Securities.
The Company acknowledges that the Securities may be pledged by a Purchaser in
connection with a bona fide margin agreement
or other loan or financing arrangement that is secured by the Securities. The
pledge of Securities shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of
the Securities hereunder, and no Purchaser effecting a pledge of the Securities
shall be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise
make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document; provided that a Purchaser and its pledgee shall be
required to comply with the provisions of Article V hereof in order to effect a
sale, transfer or assignment of Securities to such pledgee. At the Purchasers’
expense, the Company hereby agrees to execute and deliver such documentation as
a pledgee of the Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge
of the Securities to such pledgee by a Purchaser.
3.13 Amendments to Charter
Documents. The Company shall not, without the consent of Purchasers
holding at least 66 2/3% of the Notes then held by the Purchasers, amend or
waive any provision of the Certificate or Bylaws of the Company in any way that
would adversely affect exercise rights, voting rights, conversion rights,
prepayment rights, redemption rights or other rights of the holder of the
Securities.
3.14 Maintenance of
Insurance. The Company shall maintain, and cause each of its Subsidiaries
to maintain, insurance with responsible and reputable insurance companies or
associations (including, without limitation, comprehensive general liability,
hazard, rent and business interruption insurance) with respect to its properties
(including all real properties leased or owned by it) and business, in such
amounts and covering such risks as is required by any governmental authority
having jurisdiction with respect thereto or as is carried generally in
accordance with sound business practice by companies in similar businesses
similarly situated.

INDEMNIFICATION
6.1 General Indemnity.
The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchasers (and their
respective directors, officers, affiliates, members, managers, employees,
agents, successors and assigns) from and against any and all losses,
liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by
the Purchasers as a result of any inaccuracy in or breach of the
representations, warranties or covenants made by the Company
herein.
22.
6.2 Indemnification
Procedure. Any party entitled to indemnification under this Article 6 (an
“indemnified
party”) will give written notice to the indemnifying party of any matter
giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided, that the failure of any
party entitled to indemnification hereunder to give notice as provided herein
shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Article 6
except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such
failure to give notice. In case any such action, proceeding or claim is brought
against an indemnified party in respect of which indemnification is sought
hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and,
unless in the reasonable judgment of the indemnifying party a conflict of
interest between it and the indemnified party exists with respect to such
action, proceeding or claim (in which case the indemnifying party shall be
responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel for the
indemnified parties), to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the indemnified party. In the event that the indemnifying party
advises an indemnified party that it will contest such a claim for
indemnification hereunder, or fails, within 30 days of receipt of any
indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such person of its election to
defend, settle or compromise, at its sole cost and expense, any action,
proceeding or claim (or discontinues its defense at any time after it commences
such defense), then the indemnified party may, at its option, defend, settle or
otherwise compromise or pay such action or claim. In any event, unless and until
the indemnifying party elects in writing to assume and does so assume the
defense of any such claim, proceeding or action, the indemnified party’s costs
and expenses arising out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any such
action, claim or proceeding shall be losses subject to indemnification
hereunder. The indemnified party shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying
party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim
by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all
information reasonably available to the indemnified party which relates to such
action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the indemnified party fully
apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement
negotiations with respect thereto. If the indemnifying party elects to defend
any such action or claim, then the indemnified party shall be entitled to
participate in such defense with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and
expense. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any
action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent.
Notwithstanding anything in this Article 6 to the contrary, the indemnifying
party shall not, without the indemnified party’s prior written consent, settle
or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof
which imposes any future obligation on the indemnified party or which does not
include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the
plaintiff to the indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of
such claim. The indemnification obligations to defend the indemnified party
required by this Article 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount
thereof during the course of investigation or defense, as and when bills are
received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred, so long as the
indemnified party shall refund such moneys if it is ultimately determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction that such party was not entitled to
indemnification. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition
to (a) any cause of action or similar rights of the indemnified party against
the indemnifying party or others, and (b) any liabilities the indemnifying party
may be subject to pursuant to the law.

MISCELLANEOUS
7.1 Fees and Expenses.
Each party shall pay the fees and expenses of its advisors, counsel, accountants
and other experts, if any, and all other expenses, incurred by such party
incident to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of
this Agreement; provided, however, that the
Company shall pay all, documented, actual attorneys’ fees and expenses
(including disbursements and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred by the Lead
Purchaser in connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution and
delivery of the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated
thereunder, which payment shall be made at the Closing or if the Company elects
to enter into a alternative transaction before the Closing, at the time of such
election by the Company, and (ii) any amendments, modifications or waivers of
this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents. In addition, the
Company shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Purchasers in
connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any of the other
Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, all reasonable attorneys’
fees and expenses; provided, however, that in the event that the enforcement of
this Agreement is contested and it is finally judicially determined that the
Purchasers were not entitled to the enforcement of the Agreement sought, then
the Purchasers seeking enforcement shall reimburse the Company for all fees and
expenses paid pursuant to this sentence.
7.2 Specific Performance;
Consent to Jurisdiction; Venue.
(a) The
Company and the Purchasers acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would
occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement or the other
Transaction Documents were not performed in accordance with their specific terms
or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be
entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or cure breaches of the
provisions of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and to enforce
specifically the terms and provisions hereof or thereof without the requirement
of posting a bond or providing any other security, this being in addition to any
other remedy to which any of them may be entitled by law or equity.
(b) The
parties agree that venue for any dispute arising under this Agreement will lie
exclusively in the state or federal courts located in New York County, New York,
and the parties irrevocably waive any right to raise forum non conveniens or any
other argument that New York is not the proper venue. The parties irrevocably
consent to personal jurisdiction in the state and federal courts of the state of
New York. The Company and each Purchaser consent to process being served in any
such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the
address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such
service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice
thereof. Nothing in this Section 7.3 shall affect or limit any right to serve
process in any other manner permitted by law. The Company and the Purchasers
hereby agree that the prevailing party in any suit, action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to the Securities, this Agreement or the other Transaction
Documents, shall be entitled to reimbursement for reasonable legal fees from the
non-prevailing party. The parties hereby waive all rights to a trial by
jury.
7.3 Entire Agreement;
Amendment. This Agreement and the Transaction Documents contain the
entire understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to the matters
covered hereby and, except as specifically set forth herein or in the other
Transaction Documents, neither the Company nor any Purchaser make any
representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters,
and they supersede all prior understandings and agreements with respect to said
subject matter, all of which are merged herein. No provision of this Agreement
may be waived or amended on behalf of all Purchasers other than by a written
instrument signed by the Company and the Purchasers holding at least 66 2/3% of
the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and held by the Purchasers;
provided that if any Purchaser
is materially adversely affected by such waiver or amendment on behalf of all
Purchasers in a manner that not similar in all material respects to the affect
on the other Purchasers, such waiver or amendment shall not be effective without
the written consent of the adversely affected
Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing provided in this
Section 7.4 shall limit an individual Purchaser’s right to waive or amend any
provision of this Agreement on its own behalf. The Purchasers
acknowledge that any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this
Section 7.4 shall be binding upon each Purchaser (and their permitted assigns)
and the Company, including, without limitation, an amendment or waiver that has
an adverse effect on any or all Purchasers.
24.

demand, request, waiver or other communication required or permitted to be given

Any party
hereto may from time to time change its address for notices by giving written
notice of such changed address to the other party hereto.
7.5 Waivers. No waiver by
either party of any default with respect to any provision, condition or
requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the
future or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor
shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any
manner impair the exercise of any such right accruing to it
thereafter. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any
Purchaser to amend or waive or modify any provision of this Agreement unless the
same consideration is also offered to all of the parties to this Agreement then
holding Notes. This provision constitutes a separate right granted to
each Purchaser by the Company and shall not in any way be construed as the
Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to the purchase
disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise.
7.6 Headings. The
article, section and subsection headings in this Agreement are for convenience
only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose and
shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions
hereof.
7.7 Successors and
Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
the parties and their successors and assigns. After the expiration or the option
to purchase additional Notes set forth in Section 1.2(b), the assignment by a
party to this Agreement of any rights hereunder shall not affect the obligations
of such party under this Agreement. The Purchasers may assign the Securities and
its rights under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and any
other rights hereto and thereto without the consent of the Company.
7.8 No Third Party
Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns and is not for the
benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other
person.
7.9 Governing Law. This
Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal
laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any of the conflicts of
law principles which would result in the application of the substantive law of
another jurisdiction. This Agreement shall not be interpreted or construed with
any presumption against the party causing this Agreement to be
drafted.
7.10 Survival. The
representations and warranties of the Company and the Purchasers shall survive
the execution and delivery hereof and the Closing until the third anniversary of
the Closing Date, except the agreements and covenants set forth in Articles 1,
3, 5, 6 and 7 of this Agreement shall survive the Closing hereunder
indefinitely.
7.11 Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same instrument and shall become effective
when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other
parties hereto, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same
counterpart.
26.
7.12 Publicity. The
Company agrees that it will not disclose, and will not include in any public
announcement, the names of the Purchasers without the consent of the Purchasers,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, or unless and until
such disclosure is required by law, rule or applicable regulation, and then only
to the extent of such requirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchasers
consent to being identified in any filings the Company makes with the SEC to the
extent required by law or the rules and regulations of the SEC.
7.13 Severability. The
provisions of this Agreement are severable and, in the event that any court of
competent jurisdiction shall determine that any one or more of the provisions or
part of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be
held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity,
illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or part of a
provision of this Agreement and this Agreement shall be reformed and construed
as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision, or part of such
provision, had never been contained herein, so that such provisions would be
valid, legal and enforceable to the maximum extent possible.
7.14 Further Assurances.
From and after the date of this Agreement, upon the request of the Purchasers or
the Company, the Company and each Purchaser shall execute and deliver such
instruments, documents and other writings as may be reasonably necessary or
desirable to confirm and carry out and to effectuate fully the intent and
purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents
7.15 Representation of Lead
Purchaser. It is acknowledged by each Purchaser that the Lead Purchaser
has retained ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Godward Kronish LLP to act as its counsel in connection with
the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and that ▇▇▇▇▇▇
Godward Kronish LLP has not acted as counsel for any Purchaser, other than the
Lead Purchaser, in connection with the transactions contemplated by the
Transaction Documents and that none of such Purchasers has the status of a
client for conflict of interest or any other purposes as a result
thereof.
7.16 Sharing of Payments.
Each Purchaser severally agrees that if it receives (i) payment of principal on
the Maturity Date (as defined in the Notes) or (ii) payment of the Prepayment
Price (as defined in the Notes) in an amount that is ratably more than any other
Purchaser (based on the principal amount of the Notes held by such Purchaser
relative to the principal amount of the Notes outstanding), then: (a) the
Purchaser receiving such payment shall purchase, and shall be deemed to have
simultaneously purchased, from the other Purchasers a participation in the Notes
held by the other Purchasers (in the case of (i) above) or the Notes held by the
other Purchasers being prepaid at such time (in the case of (ii) above) and
shall pay to the other Purchasers a purchase price in an amount so that the
share of the Notes held by each Purchaser after the receipt of such payment
shall be in the same proportion that existed prior to the receipt of such
payment; and (b) such other adjustments and purchases of participations shall be
made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that all Purchasers share
any such payment ratably as aforesaid; provided that, if all or any
portion of a disproportionate payment obtained as a result of such payment is
thereafter recovered from the purchasing Purchaser by the Company or any Person
claiming through or succeeding to the rights of Company, the purchase of a
participation shall be rescinded and the purchase price thereof shall be
restored to the extent of the recovery, but without interest. Each Purchaser
that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section shall from and after the
purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and
other communications under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents
with respect to the portion of the Notes purchased to the same extent as though
the purchasing Purchaser were the original owner of the Notes purchased. The
Company expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any
Purchaser holding a participation in a Note so purchased may exercise any and
all rights with respect to the participation as fully as if such Purchaser were
the original owner of the Note purchased.
27.
7.17 Independent Nature of
Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each
Purchaser under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the
obligations of any other Purchaser, and no Purchaser shall be responsible in any
way for the performance of the obligations of any other Purchaser under any
Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other
Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Purchaser pursuant hereto or
thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Purchaser as a partnership, an
association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a
presumption that the Purchasers are in any way acting in concert or as a group
with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the
Transaction Documents. Each Purchaser confirms that it has
independently participated in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated
hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each
Purchaser shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights,
including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out
of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other
Purchaser to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such
purpose.
