and assets and to carry on its business as now conducted and as it is proposed
to be conducted. The Company is duly qualified or authorized to do business as a
foreign corporation and is in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction
in which the conduct of its business or the ownership of its properties or
assets requires such qualification or authorization, except for those
jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified would not, individually or in
the aggregate, have or result in a material adverse effect on the business,
properties, results of operations, prospects or conditions (financial or
otherwise) of the Company.
(b) The authorized capital stock of the Company is as set forth on
Schedule 4.1(b). Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.1(b), there is no existing
option, warrant, call, right, commitment or other agreement of any character to
which the Company is a party requiring, and there are no securities of the
Company outstanding which upon conversion or exchange would require, the
issuance, sale or transfer of any additional shares of capital stock or other
equity securities of the Company or other securities convertible into,
exchangeable for or evidencing the right to subscribe for or purchase shares of
capital stock or other equity securities of the Company. Except as disclosed on
Schedule 4.1(b), the Company is not a party to, nor aware of, any voting trust
or other voting agreement with respect to any of the securities the Company or
to any agreement relating to the issuance, sale, redemption, transfer or other
disposition of the capital stock of the Company.
4.2. Authorization of Agreement; Enforceability. The Company has all
requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement
and each other agreement, document, instrument or certificate contemplated by
this Agreement or to be executed by the Company in connection with the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the
"Transaction Documents"), and to perform fully its obligations hereunder and
thereunder. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this
Agreement and the Transaction Documents have been duly authorized by all

Agreement and each of the Transaction Documents have been duly and validly
executed and delivered by the Company and (assuming the due authorization,
execution and delivery thereof by each Purchaser) this Agreement and each of the
Transaction Documents constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of
the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective
terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
and similar laws affecting
2
6
creditors' rights and remedies generally and subject, as to enforceability, to
general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a
proceeding at law or in equity).
4.3. Subsidiaries. The Company has no Subsidiaries.
4.4. Consents of Third Parties. None of the execution and delivery by
the Company of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or compliance by the Company
with any of the provisions hereof or thereof will (a) conflict with, or result
in the breach of, any provision of the articles of incorporation or by-laws of
the Company; (b) conflict with, violate, result in the breach or termination of,
or constitute a default or give rise to any right of termination or acceleration
or right to increase the obligations or otherwise modify the terms thereof under
any Contract, Permit or Order to which the Company is a party or by which the
Company or any of its properties or assets is bound (except for the antidilution
protection granted to certain existing warrantholders for issuances of
securities below $5.00 per share, which warrants were issued in connection with
the issuance of Senior Notes); (c) constitute a violation of any Law applicable
to the Company, or (d) result in the creation of any Lien upon the properties or
assets of the Company, other than, in the case of clauses (b), (c) and (d), any
such conflict, violation, breach, termination, acceleration or other event
which, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to
cause a Material Adverse Change. Other than those which have been obtained or
made, no consent, waiver, approval, Order, Permit or authorization of, or
declaration or filing with, or notification to, any Person or Governmental Body
is required on the part of the Company in connection with the execution and
delivery of this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, or the compliance by
the Company with any of the provisions hereof or thereof.
4.5. Authorization of Preferred Shares. The issuance, sale, and
delivery of the Shares have been duly authorized by all requisite action of the
Company, and, when issued, sold, and delivered in accordance with this
Agreement, the Shares, and the Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the

fairly the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows

losses, if any, for federal income tax purposes, as set forth in the Financial
Statements, are not subject to any limitations imposed by Section 382 of the
Code, and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or by

full to offset such taxable income.

assets free and clear of all Liens, except those assets disposed of since the

Company has good and marketable title to the leasehold estates in all Real
Property Leases in each case free and clear of all Liens, except for Liens
incurred with respect to the Senior Notes and Liens incurred in the ordinary
course of business which would not impair the Company's use of such property in
any material way. The Company has no reason to believe that such title would not
be insurable subject to customary exceptions.
(d) Each of the Real Property Leases is valid and enforceable in
accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors' rights and
remedies generally and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of
equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in
equity), and there is no material default under any Real Property Lease by the
Company or, to the best knowledge of the Company, by any other party thereto,

effect and is valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms,
subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and
similar laws affecting creditors' rights and remedies generally and subject, as
to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether
7

enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity), and there is no
material default under any Personal Property Lease by the Company or, to the
best knowledge of the Company, by any other party thereto, and no event has

Property Lease has given notice of or made a claim with respect to any breach or
default thereunder.

disposed of subsequent to the date hereof in the ordinary course of business
consistent with past practice), free and clear of any and all Liens, except for
