qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing as a
foreign corporation, partnership or limited liability company, as the case may
be, in all jurisdictions in which the nature of its activities and of its
properties (both owned and leased) makes such qualification necessary, except

reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material
adverse effect on the business, assets, liabilities, condition (financial or
otherwise), properties, operations or prospects of the Company and it
Subsidiaries, taken individually and as a whole (a "Material Adverse Effect").
4.2 Subsidiaries. Each direct and indirect Subsidiary of the
Company, the direct owner of such Subsidiary and its percentage ownership
thereof, is set forth on Schedule 4.2. For the purpose of this Agreement, a
"Subsidiary" of any person or entity means (i) a corporation or other entity

disclosed on Schedule 4.3, neither the offer, issuance or sale of any of the
Note or the Warrant, or the issuance of any of the Note Shares or Warrant

affecting any such securities.

Stock: (i) have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid

reorganization, moratorium or other laws of general application affecting
enforcement of creditors' rights; and

default, in the case of this clause (y), has had, or could reasonably be
expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse

upon any of the properties or assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
or the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any
permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to the Company, its

ownership of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, nor is the Company aware

contracted, is in violation of any term of any employment contract,
proprietary information agreement or any other agreement relating to the right
of any such individual to be employed by, or to contract with, the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries because of the nature of the business to be conducted
by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; and to the Company's knowledge the

business days of receipt of any such Proposed Term Sheet. If the provisions of
the Purchaser's term sheet are at least as favorable to the Company or such
Subsidiary, as the case may be, as the provisions of the Proposed Term Sheet,
the Company and/or such Subsidiary shall enter into the Additional Financing
outlined in the Purchaser's term sheet.
(b) The Company will not, and will not permit its Subsidiaries to,
agree, directly or indirectly, to any restriction with any person or entity
which limits the ability of the Purchaser to consummate an Additional
Financing with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.
7. Covenants of the Purchaser. The Purchaser covenants and agrees with
the Company as follows:
7.1 Confidentiality. The Purchaser agrees that it will not
disclose, and will not include in any public announcement, the name of the
Company, unless expressly agreed to by the Company or unless and until such
disclosure is required by law or applicable regulation, and then only to the
extent of such requirement.
7.2 Non-Public Information. The Purchaser agrees not to effect
any sales in the shares of the Company's Common Stock while in possession of
material, non-public information regarding the Company if such sales would
violate applicable securities law.
8. Covenants of the Company and Purchaser Regarding Indemnification.
8.1 Company Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify,
hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Purchaser, each of the Purchaser's
officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control persons, and principal
shareholders, against any claim, cost, expense, liability, obligation, loss or
damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature, incurred by or imposed
upon the Purchaser which results, arises out of or is based upon: (i) any
misrepresentation by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or breach of any
warranty by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in this Agreement, any
other Related Agreement or in any exhibits or schedules attached hereto or
thereto; or (ii) any breach or default in performance by Company or any of its
Subsidiaries of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by Company or any
of its Subsidiaries hereunder, under any other Related Agreement or any other
agreement entered into by the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries and
Purchaser relating hereto or thereto.
8.2 Purchaser's Indemnification. Purchaser agrees to indemnify,
hold harmless, reimburse and defend the Company and each of the Company's
officers, directors, agents, affiliates, control persons and principal
shareholders, at all times against any claim, cost, expense, liability,
obligation, loss or damage (including reasonable legal fees) of any nature,
incurred by or imposed upon the Company which results, arises out of or is
based upon: (i) any misrepresentation by Purchaser or breach of any warranty
by Purchaser in this Agreement or in any exhibits or schedules attached hereto
or any Related Agreement; or (ii) any breach or default in performance by
Purchaser of any covenant or undertaking to be performed by Purchaser
hereunder, or any other agreement entered into by the Company and Purchaser
relating hereto.
9. Conversion of Convertible Note.
9.1 Mechanics of Conversion.
(a) Provided the Purchaser has notified the Company of the
Purchaser's intention to sell the Note Shares and the Note Shares are included
in an effective registration statement or are otherwise exempt from
registration when sold: (i) upon the conversion of the Note or part thereof,
the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all necessary action
(including the issuance of an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the
Purchaser following a request by the Purchaser) to assure that the Company's
transfer agent shall issue shares of the Company's Common Stock in the name of
the Purchaser (or its nominee) or such other persons as designated by the
Purchaser in accordance with Section 9.1(b) hereof and in such denominations
to be specified representing the number of Note Shares issuable upon such
conversion; and (ii) the Company warrants that no instructions other than
these instructions have been or will be given to the transfer agent of the
Company's Common Stock and that after the Effectiveness Date (as defined in
the Registration Rights Agreement) the Note Shares issued will be freely
transferable subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities
Act and the provisions of this Agreement, and will not contain a legend
restricting the resale or transferability of the Note Shares.
(b) Purchaser will give notice of its decision to exercise its
right to convert the Note or part thereof by telecopying or otherwise
delivering an executed and completed notice of the number of shares to be
converted to the Company (the "Notice of Conversion"). The Purchaser will not
be required to surrender the Note until the Purchaser receives a credit to the
account of the Purchaser's prime broker through the DWAC system (as defined
below), representing the Note Shares or until the Note has been fully
satisfied. Each date on which a Notice of Conversion is telecopied or
delivered to the Company in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be
deemed a "Conversion Date." Pursuant to the terms of the Notice of
Conversion, the Company will issue instructions to the transfer agent
accompanied by an opinion of counsel within one (1) business day of the date
of the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Conversion and shall cause
the transfer agent to transmit the certificates representing the Conversion
Shares to the Holder by crediting the account of the Purchaser's prime broker
with the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent
Commission ("DWAC") system within three (3) business days after receipt by the
Company of the Notice of Conversion (the "Delivery Date").
(c) The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the
Note Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 9 hereof beyond the
Delivery Date could result in economic loss to the Purchaser. In the event
that the Company fails to direct its transfer agent to deliver the Note Shares
to the Purchaser via the DWAC system within the time frame set forth in
Section 9.1(b) above and the Note Shares are not delivered to the Purchaser by
the Delivery Date, as compensation to the Purchaser for such loss, the Company
agrees to pay late payments to the Purchaser for late issuance of the Note
Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 9 hereof upon conversion of
the Note in the amount equal to the greater of: (i) $500 per business day
after the Delivery Date; or (ii) the Purchaser's actual damages from such
delayed delivery. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not owe the
Purchaser any late payments if the delay in the delivery of the Note Shares
beyond the Delivery Date is solely out of the control of the Company and the
Company is actively trying to cure the cause of the delay. The Company shall
pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds
upon demand and, in the case of actual damages, accompanied by reasonable
documentation of the amount of such damages. Such documentation shall show
the number of shares of Common Stock the Purchaser is forced to purchase (in
an open market transaction) which the Purchaser anticipated receiving upon
such conversion, and shall be calculated as the amount by which (A) the
Purchaser's total purchase price (including customary brokerage commissions,
if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate
principal and/or interest amount of the Note, for which such Conversion Notice
was not timely honored.
Nothing contained herein or in any document referred to herein or delivered in
connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a
rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum permitted by
applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest or dividends required
to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum amount permitted by
such law, any payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited against
amounts owed by the Company to a Purchaser and thus refunded to the Company.
10. Registration Rights.
10.1 Registration Rights Granted. The Company hereby grants
registration rights to the Purchaser pursuant to a Registration Rights
Agreement dated as of even date herewith between the Company and the
Purchaser.
10.2 Offering Restrictions. Except as previously disclosed in the
SEC Reports or in the Exchange Act Filings, or stock or stock options granted
to employees, directors and consultants of the Company (these exceptions
hereinafter referred to as the "Excepted Issuances"), neither the Company nor
any of its Subsidiaries will issue any securities with a continuously
variable/floating conversion feature which are or could be (by conversion or
registration) free-trading securities (i.e. common stock subject to a
registration statement) prior to the full repayment or conversion of the Note
(together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees related thereto) (the
"Exclusion Period").
11. Miscellaneous.
11.1 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH RELATED AGREEMENT
SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS. ANY ACTION
BROUGHT BY EITHER PARTY AGAINST THE OTHER CONCERNING THE TRANSACTIONS

STATE OF NEW YORK. BOTH PARTIES AND THE INDIVIDUALS EXECUTING THIS AGREEMENT
AND THE RELATED AGREEMENTS ON BEHALF OF THE COMPANY AGREE TO SUBMIT TO THE
JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY. IN THE EVENT THAT ANY
PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED AGREEMENT DELIVERED IN CONNECTION
HEREWITH IS INVALID OR UNENFORCEABLE UNDER ANY APPLICABLE STATUTE OR RULE OF
LAW, THEN SUCH PROVISION SHALL BE DEEMED INOPERATIVE TO THE EXTENT THAT IT MAY
CONFLICT THEREWITH AND SHALL BE DEEMED MODIFIED TO CONFORM WITH SUCH STATUTE
OR RULE OF LAW. ANY SUCH PROVISION WHICH MAY PROVE INVALID OR UNENFORCEABLE
UNDER ANY LAW SHALL NOT AFFECT THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF ANY OTHER
PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED AGREEMENT.
11.2 Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements made herein shall survive any investigation made by the Purchaser
and the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby to the extent provided
therein. All statements as to factual matters contained in any certificate or
other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company pursuant hereto in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to be
representations and warranties by the Company hereunder solely as of the date
of such certificate or instrument.
11.3 Successors. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein,
the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the
successors, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto and
shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each person who shall be a
holder of the Securities from time to time, other than the holders of Common
Stock which has been sold by the Purchaser pursuant to Rule 144 or an
effective registration statement. Purchaser may not assign its rights
hereunder to a competitor of the Company.
11.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Related Agreements,
the exhibits and schedules hereto and thereto and the other documents

shall be liable or bound to any other in any manner by any representations,
warranties, covenants and agreements except as specifically set forth herein
and therein.
11.5 Severability. In case any provision of the Agreement shall
be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and

impaired thereby.

written consent of the Company and the Purchaser.
(b) The obligations of the Company and the rights of the Purchaser
under this Agreement may be waived only with the written consent of the
Purchaser.
(c) The obligations of the Purchaser and the rights of the Company
under this Agreement may be waived only with the written consent of the
Company.
11.7 Delays or Omissions. It is agreed that no delay or omission
to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party, upon any breach,
default or noncompliance by another party under this Agreement or the Related
Agreements, shall impair any such right, power or remedy, nor shall it be
construed to be a waiver of any such breach, default or noncompliance, or any
acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach, default or noncompliance
thereafter occurring. All remedies, either under this Agreement or the
Related Agreements, by law or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be
cumulative and not alternative.

FORM OF OPINION
1. Each of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries is a corporation
duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of
their respective jurisdiction of organization and has all requisite corporate
power and authority to own, operate and lease its properties and to carry on
its business as it is now being conducted.
2. Each of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has the requisite
corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations
under the Agreement and the Related Agreements. All corporate action on the
part of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries and its officers, directors
and stockholders necessary has been taken for: (i) the authorization of the
Agreement and the Related Agreements and the performance of all obligations of
the Company and each of its Subsidiaries thereunder; and (ii) the
authorization, sale, issuance and delivery of the Securities pursuant to the
Agreement and the Related Agreements. The Note Shares and the Warrant Shares,
when issued pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and
the Related Agreements and upon delivery shall be validly issued and
outstanding, fully paid and non assessable.
3. The execution, delivery and performance by each of the Company and
each of its Subsidiaries of the Agreement and the Related Agreements to which
it is a party and the consummation of the transactions on its part
contemplated by any thereof, will not, with or without the giving of notice or
the passage of time or both:
(a) Violate the provisions of their respective Charter or bylaws;
or
(b) Violate any judgment, decree, order or award of any court
binding upon the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or
(c) Violate any California, Delaware General Corporation Law,
Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Delaware
on the date hereof or federal law
4. The Agreement and the Related Agreements will constitute, valid and
legally binding obligations of each of the Company and each of its
Subsidiaries (to the extent such person is a party thereto), and are
enforceable against each of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries in
accordance with their respective terms, except:
(a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other laws of general application affecting
enforcement of creditors' rights; and
(b) general principles of equity that restrict the availability
of equitable or legal remedies.
5. To such counsel's knowledge, the sale of the Note and the
subsequent conversion of the Note into Note Shares are not subject to any
preemptive rights or rights of first refusal that have not been properly
waived or complied with. To such counsel's knowledge, the sale of the Warrant
and the subsequent exercise of the Warrant for Warrant Shares are not subject
to any preemptive rights or, to such counsel's knowledge, rights of first
refusal that have not been properly waived or complied with.
6. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the
Purchaser contained in the Agreement, the offer, sale and issuance of the
Securities on the Closing Date will be exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act. To such counsel's knowledge, 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 and security under circumstances that would cause
the offering of the Securities pursuant to the Agreement or any Related
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 Rule 506 under the Securities Act, or any applicable
exchange-related stockholder approval provisions.
7. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or,
to such counsel's knowledge, currently threatened against the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries that prevents the right of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries to enter into this Agreement or any of the Related Agreements, or
to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby. To such counsel's
knowledge, the Company is not a party or subject to the provisions of any
order, writ, injunction, judgment or decree of any court or government agency
or instrumentality; nor is there any action, suit, proceeding or investigation
by the Company currently pending or which the Company intends to initiate.
8. The terms and provisions of the Master Security Agreement and the
Stock Pledge Agreement create a valid security interest in favor of Laurus, in
the respective rights, title and interests of the Company and its Subsidiaries
in and to the Collateral (as defined in each of the Master Security Agreement
and the Stock Pledge Agreement). Each UCC-1 Financing Statement naming the
Company or any Subsidiary thereof as debtor and Laurus as secured party are in
proper form for filing and assuming that such UCC-1 Financing Statements have
been filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware, the security interest
created under the Master Security Agreement will constitute a perfected
security interest under the Uniform Commercial Code in favor of Laurus in
respect of the Collateral that can be perfected by filing a financing
statement. After giving effect to the delivery to Laurus of the stock
certificates representing the ownership interests of each Subsidiary of the
Company (together with effective endorsements) and assuming the continued
possession by Laurus of such stock certificates in the State of New York, the
security interest created in favor of Laurus under the Stock Pledge Agreement
constitutes a valid and enforceable first perfected security interest in such
ownership interests (and the proceeds thereof) in favor of Laurus, subject to
no other security interest. No filings, registrations or recordings are
required in order to perfect (or maintain the perfection or priority of) the
security interest created under the Stock Pledge Agreement in respect of such
ownership interests.
9. Assuming that North Fork Bank is a "bank" (as such term is defined
in Section 9-102(a)(8) of the UCC), and that the Restricted Account (as
defined in the Restricted Account Agreement) constitutes a "deposit account"
(as such term is defined in Section 9-102(a)(29) of the UCC), under the
Uniform Commercial Code, the due execution and delivery of the Restricted
Account Agreement perfects the Purchaser's security interest in the Restricted
Account.
